DINNER AT JOANNE'S 原文翻译

dinneratjoanne读后感《Dinner at Joanne读后感篇一》读完《Dinner at Joanne》，我就像被卷入了一场奇妙的美食与情感交织的漩涡，久久不能自拔。

这篇文章就像一道精心烹制的菜肴，刚一开始读，那股独特的氛围就像刚上桌的开胃菜，刺激着我的味蕾（这里把阅读的好奇心比喻成味蕾）。

作者对场景的描写那叫一个绝，就说描写Joanne家的餐厅吧，那细致的程度就好像作者拿着放大镜在我眼前一厘米一厘米地展示似的。

我仿佛能看到那古旧的餐桌，上面有着岁月斑驳的痕迹，就像一位老者脸上的皱纹，每一道都藏着故事。

餐桌上摆放的餐具，精致得就像一群等待检阅的士兵，闪着淡淡的光泽。

在人物刻画上，哇塞，那简直是把人物从纸上给硬生生地拽到了我面前。

比如说主角和Joanne之间的互动，那种微妙的情感就像是在玩跷跷板，一会儿高一会儿低。

有时候我觉得他们就像是多年未见的老友，彼此之间有着说不完的话，那些话语就像涓涓细流，不断地流淌着。

可有时候呢，又像是初次见面的陌生人，互相试探着，那种小心翼翼就像两只小刺猬，想靠近又怕扎到对方。

从故事里，我也想到了自己的一些经历。

我记得有一次去亲戚家吃饭，那场面和文章里有点像。

大家围坐在餐桌旁，一开始都有点拘束，就像文章里主角刚到Joanne家时的那种感觉。

但随着食物的香气弥漫开来，大家的话匣子也打开了。

不过，我可没像文章里有那么多的弯弯绕绕的情感，我们就是单纯地唠家常，那笑声简直能把屋顶给掀翻。

我就在想啊，这篇文章难道仅仅是在讲一顿晚餐吗？也许不是呢。

它可能是在通过晚餐这个窗口，展现人与人之间复杂的关系。

就像我们生活中的很多场景，表面上是在做一件事，实际上背后有着千丝万缕的联系。

比如说，有时候我们参加一个聚会，看似是为了吃吃喝喝，但其实是在社交，在寻找情感的慰藉或者是拓展人脉。

这就像文章里看似只是晚餐，但背后主角和Joanne的情感纠葛才是重点。

但是呢，我又有点矛盾的想法。

Different countries have their own tea cultures, like afternoon tea in England.The tradition of afternoon tea is a very special part of English culture. The custom (风俗) of drinking tea became popular in England during the 1660s. It was not until the mid-19th centurythat the idea of “afternoon tea” first appeared.Afternoon tea is served in the mid-afternoon, between lunch and a late dinner. The idea came from Anna, the seventh Duchess (公爵夫人) of Bedford, in 1840. At the time, many families would eat a late dinner at about 8 p.m., which was one of only two main meals each day, and the other was a mid-morning meal.With a long time between breakfast and dinner, Anna would become hungry around 4 o’clock in the afternoon. So she asked some tea, bread, butter and cakes to be brought to her room during the late afternoon. This became a habit of hers and she began inviting friends to join her.Later, Anna continued it, sending cards to her friends asking them to join her for “tea and a walking in the fields”.Others soon picked up on the idea. By the 1880s, afternoon tea became an event for many ladies. They would be dressed beautifully to be served in the sitting room between four and five o’clock, talking about the latest news, their everyday life and fashion.Today’s afternoon tea is simpler than traditional afternoon tea. It is just a biscuit (饼干) or small cake and a cup of tea. However, there is one thing that has never changed—the meaning of afternoon tea.27．When did the idea of “afternoon tea” first appear in England?A．In the 1660s.B．In the 1880s.C．In the mid-19th century.D．In 1950. 28．In the third paragraph, what does the “two main meals” probably refer to (指)?A．A lunch and a late dinner.B．A mid-morning meal and a late dinner.C．A breakfast and a mid-afternoon meal.D．A mid-morning meal and a lunch. 29．Why did Anna ask for tea and cakes in the afternoon at first?A．Because she felt hungry.B．Because she loved drinking tea.C．Because she needed to invite her friends.D．Because she had such a habit.30．What can we infer (推断) from the passage?A．Afternoon tea has spread all over the world.B．People used to drink tea more often than now.C．You could enjoy more snacks at today’s afternoon tea.D．Afternoon tea gives people a chance to communicate.四、单词拼写31．Doctors say that too much pressure is not good for a child’s (发展).32．Take care when you are driving, (尤其) in a summer storm like this. 33．Yesterday two (德国人) visited our school.34．There are lots of relaxing and (安宁的) places of interest in Shandong Province. 35．Our government should make rules on whale （保护）36．It’s unbelievable that technology has (progress) in such a rapid way. 37．(watch) the tea preparation is just as enjoyable as drinking the tea itself.38．In Gretel’s mind, Hansel was the (brave) person in the world.39．When the panda babies see the keepers, they run over to them with (excite). 40．Our hometown has given us so many (memory).五、完成句子41．美猴王不能把自己变成一个人，除非他能隐藏他的尾巴。

Josh: I am sure, she will. Could you please show me to her table?

乔安妮餐厅的晚餐1 雪下得很大，虽然每个真正的纽约人都盼着过一个白色的圣诞，可还在第五大道购物的人们却行色匆匆，他们不但要在最后一刻前挑选到心仪的圣诞礼物，还要避开严寒，回家和亲人们共度圣诞夜。

2 乔希·莱斯特拐进了第四十六街。

他还没来得及享受圣诞的气氛，因为他仍在工作着，虽说是要在乔安妮餐厅吃一顿工作餐。

乔希是黑人，三十出头，长得平易近人，穿着时髦得体，却不华贵。

他来自弗吉尼亚州北部，父母都是辛勤工作的人，或许只有回到父母家里才最让他感到幸福。

单从他的行为举止，别人看不出他拥有一个哈佛法学院的学位，一段在华盛顿特区跟从国会议员实习的经历，还有纽约一家律师事务所初级合伙人的身份。

他才华横溢，思维敏捷，聪明过人。

3 这次会面意味着乔希要过了圣诞夜才能回家了。

他并没有因此而不高兴，因为他要见的人是康涅狄格州的资深参议员乔·罗杰斯，此人是全美曝光率最高的名人之一。

参议员罗杰斯是民主党人，现在是她的第三个任期，对于国会山的一切她了如指掌，尽管如此，她还是尽力维持住了在她的支持者心中作为一位华盛顿局外人的信誉。

她支持堕胎，反对腐败，支持减少二氧化碳排量，反对死刑，可以说是大西洋的这一边能找到的最完美的进步自由派人士。

脱口秀主持人们称呼她“诚实的参议员乔”，几年前《时代周刊》提名她参加年度女性的角逐。

明年就是选举年了，有消息称她将参加民主党内总统提名的竞选。

罗杰斯在华盛顿见过乔希，她觉得乔希很有才干，于是就邀他共进晚餐。

4 乔希打了个冷战，他打开手里的纸条核对了一下地址。

之前他没来过乔安妮餐厅，但对于它的鼎鼎大名却早有耳闻，倒不是因为这里的饭菜有多美味，其实这里的菜品屡遭恶评，也不是因为这里的爵士管弦乐队有一位知名电影导演客串吹小号，而是因为这里汇集了有头有脸的宾客，可以说是星光璀璨，他们中有政客、外交家、电影明星、载入名人堂的体育明星、记者、作家、摇滚明星、诺贝尔奖得主等等——总之，这里的每一位客人都是这座权力之城里的一个人物。
