Now with more findings coming out of the millennia-old ruins, the once mysterious Loulan offers a rare glimpse into the history of Xinjiang, the close relations between the western and central regions of ancient China, as well as the shared cultural identity of Chinese civilization."Everything here has great value," says 19-year-old Adiljan Jilir, the youngest of the rangers tasked with preserving the Loulan Ruins. Due in no small part to the lasting fame of Loulan, the ancient city and nearby tombs have become a hot spot for uninvited tourists and even a target of cultural relic theft, despite their far-flung location.To keep the ruins safe, Adiljan and his teammates make regular patrols around the ruins every day. In addition to the intruders, they have bigger challenges to deal with—the dreadful weather and the no less dreadful loneliness. He says he knew little about Loulan before taking the job, but hasnow established a profound bond with the ancient ruins after reading a lot of history books.重点词汇1. intruders英 [ɪnˈtruːdə(r)s] 美 [ɪnˈtruːdərs]n. 闯入者，侵入者2. dreadful英[ˈdredf(ə)l]美[ˈdredf(ə)l]adj. 糟糕透顶的中文新闻：楼兰古城——一个沙漠中的失落帝国世界上最伟大的历史之谜之一，将全球考古学家和历史学家的目光吸引到中国西北偏僻之地——传奇的楼兰。

Elizabeth Bennet 在小说中被描述为young lady，girl 通常指小女孩，woman 一般指成年女性，man 明显错误。

戏说英语阅读理解--黄沙百战，誓破楼兰先说点题外话。

之前有很多同学站内信或者回帖跟我说，让我写一个阅读方面的东西，可是我一直迟迟没有动笔。

首先，阅读不是一个帖子能说清楚的一件事情，阅读理解是英语底蕴与英语思维的积淀，关于考研阅读的书籍都很厚的一大本。

如果要是寄希望能在一个帖子里能说清楚，那必定是顾此失彼。

其次，关于阅读理解的做题方法，每个人都有每个人的模式了。

还有20天的时间，如果突然改变习惯的模式去适应新的方法，其结果很可能是邯郸学步。

最后，我觉得也是我一直没写的一个重要原因就是，得阅读者得英语，阅读所占分值之大，占比重之高是任何一个题型都没法比的。

如果为了凑成一个完整的系列，而随便应付一个帖子，那么遭天谴是小，误了各位的前程那罪过可就大了。

基于此，金翅看了很多经验贴、理论贴和技术贴，慎重的写下了这个帖子，希望对大家能有帮助。

如果有同学想知道，看不懂文章，单词一大片不认识的，单从看选项就能做对题的技巧，那么我先说您看错帖子了，赶紧ctrl+w一下，别浪费您宝贵的时间。

本帖不会介绍任何此类的技巧，因为金翅就是这类技巧的牺牲品，白白丢了很多分。

而金翅的一个同学因为这些所谓的阅读技巧，英语差一分，结果调剂到另一个学校了，与母校失之交臂。

不絮叨了，下边进入正文。

阅读概述在我们经历的各种英语考试中，阅读理解一直是拿分的大户、也是失分的大户。

阅读理解也是一直让我们说不清道不明的一个题型。

得阅读者得英语，有这样的说法，考研的成败很大一部分取决于考研英语，而考研英语的成败很大程度上取决于英语阅读的发挥。

这样我们就要把阅读提到一个不得不重视的位置。

本文摒弃传统的阅读讲解模式，力图用另一种思路、另一个角度对考研阅读理解有一个新的了解。

通过定量化的视角来对阅读理解进行解析，让同学们了解阅读理解究竟要考我们什么，我们又该如何应对这个陷阱。

我慢慢写，大家慢慢看。

很多辅导书把阅读题型分成十几种，这样太麻烦，我们也记不住。

黄沙百战穿金甲，不破楼兰终不还：王昌龄《从军行》翻译赏析从军行唐王昌龄青海长云暗雪山，孤城遥望玉门关。

黄沙百战穿金甲，不破楼兰终不还。

[作者简介] 王昌龄（699-757），字少伯，京兆长安（今陕西省西安市）人，一说太原（今山西省太原市）人。

唐代着名边塞诗人。

他擅长七言绝句，作品多写边塞、送别，气象雄浑，情意隽永，语言精炼生动，音律铿锵悠扬。

[注释] 1. 从军行：乐府《相和歌辞·平调曲》旧题，多写军队务旅征战之事。

王昌龄作的《从军行》共七首，这里选入第四首。

2. 青海：即今青海湖。

长云：多云，漫天皆云。

雪山：终年积雪的山，指祁连山。

3. 孤城：指玉门关，因地广人稀，给人以孤城之感。

这句词序倒装，意思是“遥望孤城玉门关”。

4. 穿：磨破。

金甲：战衣，是金属制成的盔甲。

5. 破楼兰：借指彻底消灭敌人。

楼兰：汉时对西域鄯善的称呼，诗中泛指当时侵扰西北边区的敌人。

[译文] 青海湖连绵不断的大片乌云，遮暗了终年积雪的祁连山；远远眺望只看见孤独的城池，那正是春风都吹不到的玉门雄关。

在黄沙莽莽的疆场上，将士们身经百战磨穿了铁甲衣裳衫，但是不彻底消灭入侵的边贼，他们将誓死不把家园回还！ [鉴赏] 唐代边塞诗的读者，往往因为诗中所涉及的地名古今杂举、空间悬隔而感到困惑。

怀疑作者不谙地理，因而不求甚解者有之，曲为之解者亦有之。

这首诗就有这种情形。

前两句提到三个地名。

雪山即河西走廊南面横亘廷伸的祁连山脉。

青海与玉关东西相距数千里，却同在一幅画面上出现，于是对这两句就有种种不同的解说。

有的说，上句是向前极目，下句是回望故乡。

这很奇怪。

青海、雪山在前，玉关在后，则抒情主人公回望的故乡该是玉门关西的西域，那不是汉兵，倒成胡兵了。

另一说，次句即“孤城玉门关遥望”之倒文，而遥望的对象则是“青海长云暗雪山”，这里存在两种误解：一是把“遥望”解为“遥看”，二是把对西北边陲地区的概括描写误解为抒情主人公望中所见，而前一种误解即因后一种误解而生。

But Ernest told Katie what Gulliver did that first summer Katie and her dad came caught everyone’s attention.

Another summer Katie was three years old, she liked to touch everything. But Dad didn’t watch her every minute when she tried to catch small ducks around or fish from water. “Kee-aah! Kee-aah!” The gull’s cry brought Dad back in time. He stopped Katie as she tried to follow the small ducks running towards water.

One day, she rowed a boat out but was trapped on a rock by a storm. As she looked up and tried to catch the last warmth of the sunshine through dark clouds, she saw a single white feather.

英文回答：The phrase "Huang Sha Bai Zhan Chuan Jin Jia, Bu Po Lou Lan Zhong Bu Huan" from a renowned poem of ancient China, epitomizes the ethos of perseverance and unconquerable resolve. This evocative line encapsulates the fortitude and determination to ovee obstacles and never succumb to defeat.It conveys a profound sense of resilience and tenacity in the face of adversity, embodying the unyielding spirit of human perseverance.古代我国著名诗歌中的"广沙白·詹·川Jin佳，布宝·卢·兰Zh·布万"一句，概括了坚韧不拔和不可征服决心的气质。

It's all about staying strong and never giving up on yourdreams.穿着金色的盔甲和穿梭在危险的黄沙沙漠中，承诺在卢兰古城恢复之前不会放弃——这就像一个无畏的象征和永不言而喻的态度。
