高英6简答题

Unit2 The Fine Art of Putting Things Off

1. How does Demarest begin his essay? Is it an effective beginning?

He begins with the famous saying of Chesterfield’s and the non-compliance instances of some historically well-known figures.

Yes. This effectively reminds people that procrastination is not under all circumstances a non-recommendable practice; sometimes people do have a good reason to wait before they take an action.

2. Why does Demarest refer to visits to the barber, the dentist, and the doctor as “Faustian encounters”?

“Faustian encounters” refers to Faust’s encounters with the devil Mephistopheles. Naturally they are undesirable. Most people are unwilling to visit barbers, doctors, and dentists.

3. How do you understand the word “Blessedly” used i n para.4?

It means “fortunately”. The nattering Telex would have facilitated the supply of weapons and dispatch of troops, depriving the proconsul of the excuse to delay action.

4. Explain Demarest’s distortion of the proverb “where there is no will, there is no way” at the beginning of para.

5.

The author is playing/punning on the word “will”. The repetition of the word serves as a cohesive tie between the two paragraphs. But mind that the word is used in different senses in the two instances. In the preced ing paragraph, “will” means a statement in writing saying how someone wishes his property to be distributed after his death. In the distorted version of the old saying, the word “will” is used in the sense of “volition”. Thus it means “Even when there is n o will to procrastinate, there is a way to do so.” He goes on to illustrate his point by giving examples.

5. How do you explain the parenthesis (at 50-plus an hour) in para.8?

This is a humorous touch. This refers to what the psychologists (more exactly psychiatrists or psychoanalysts) charge their clients for the consultation. This explains why they always delay curing their patients.

6. Think of one or two examples to illustrate what Dr. Greenson says—“All frightened people will then avoid the moment of truth entirely, or evade or postpone it until the last possible moment”.

For example, a person who has a bad tooth tends to delay his visit to the dentist until he pain becomes intolerable.

7. While the points Demarest makes about his subject matter are serious, the tone of his writing is a mixture of the serious and the humorous. Identify his shifts in tone from one to other.

While the statement at the beginning of para.3 “delay can often inspire and revive a creative soul” is a serious one, the following illustrations do not sound to be so.

But remember Jean Kerr was a humorist.

What he says about the procrastination in the army, though a bit overstated, may still be seriously meant. The two illustrative examples, especially the one of the US general’s tak ing a sporting day off to delay the battle, are instances of humor at the cost of credibility.

In the last paragraph the inclusion of “the creation of an entrée” adds a humorous

touch to other serious illustrations such as the creation of a great painting a book and a building.

Unit 3

1.There seems to be a contradiction in the title “A Crime of Compassion”.

What is it?

There are various kinds of crimes, but criminals can be anything but compassionate. It is hardly possible to associate compassion with any crime and being compassionate with a criminal.

2.Huttmann begins her essay with a metaphor. Locate it and then explain it.

The first sentence of para.3: It was the Phil Donahue show where the guest is a fatted calf and the audience a 200-strong flock of vultures hungering to pick at the bones. Huttmann likens herself to a fatted calf, and the audience to a flock of more than 200 vultures hungering to pick at the bones. With the metaphor she intends to tell the reader that the way she handled the case of Mac was strongly disapproved of by the general public, and that the concept of mercy killing was unacceptable to them.

3.Where in the essay can we find descriptions of Mac’s condition whe n he was

being treated? Why do you think Huttmann is being so specific and detailed?

Mostly in para.6, and the latter part of para.7. She gives such detailed and specific descriptions of Mac’s condition to make vivid to the reader the horrifying sufferings Mac had to endure, ultimately to support her argument that a patient in such condition should be given the right to die if he should so request.

4.Was it a difficult decision for Huttmann to make not to push the button in

time?

Obviously it was, as she relates in para.15 “Nothing I’ve ever done in my 47 years has taken so much effort as it took not to press that code button.”

5.Where does Huttmann state her thesis?

In the last paragraph: Until there is legislation making it criminal act to cade a patient who has requested the right to die, we will all of us risk the same fate as Mac. For whatever reason, we developed the means to prolong life, and now we are forced to use it. We do not have the right to die.

Unit4 A Red Light for Scofflaw

1.Properly coined compound words can be economical way of expression. Some

instances are found in para.2. Pick them out and explain their meanings.

The graffiti prone – those who are prone to graffiti

Litter-decibel radios- radios whose volume has been turned high

Beer-soaked hooliganism- hooliganism committed by large numbers.

2.Why does Trippett keep “jaywalkers” as the last category of scofflaws in the

second paragraph？What other means does he use to strength the effect intended by this arrangement?

It is not limited to some people, but is widely committed by large numbers.

The greeting(hello, Everybody!)

The conjunction “ And then” used to highlight the last, but by no means the least form of scofflawry enumerated here.

3.Explain the use of the conjunctive adverb “however” in para.3. Find in the

rest of the text the word “however” used in a similar way. How does it contribute to the coherence of the text?

It indicates a contrast in meaning between the sentence it is in and the previous two, in which it is said that the more visible forms of scofflawry, i.e. spitting and fare-beating are less dangerous than the less visible ones, i.e. burying chemical waste in unauthorized location, and ignoring fire statutes. But lawless driving, the most visible scofflawry is also the most dangerous.

Other instances:

1)Para.5, contrasts “ a minor wrong” and “ a great deal more than a traffic

management problem”

2)Para.5, contrasts the visible flagrancy of red light running, and the attempts to

disguise or conceal felony by real criminals or outlaws

3)Para.8, emphasizes the difference between what Americans think threatens law

and order, and what Trippett thinks really does.

4.What does Trippett mean by the metaphor “leave deep dents” in para.5? Is it

an appropriate metaphor in the context?

It means “mar, damage, make imperfect”. It is very appropriate in the context because what is under discussion happens to be the violation of traffic rules.

5.In what sense, according to Tripppett, is red-light running a more serious

breach of social order than other lawbreaking action?(Refer to Para.5) Rules are violated in open defiance of social authority. While culprits of social vices or crimes make attempts to conceal their lawbreaking acts out of fear of and/ or respect for the authority of the law, red light runners do not care a damn whether they are seen or not.

6.What point does Trippett want to make in para.6? What do you think of his

example of children entering schools not knowing how to live together? Scofflaws are an indication of social demoralization. The example of the school children may not be appropriate one. For children may not have acquired the capacity to govern their own behavior yet, while social demoralization means the “loss” of morality which has been cultivated.

7.What premonition does Trippett make to the American public in paras.7 and

8?

Do not overlook scofflawry as if it were only a matter of bad manners; it may be more powerful than violent crimes in shaking the foundation of U.S. law.

8.Do you think it appropriate for Trippett to end his essay by presenting

evidence of scofflawry at the top?

Yes. If the law-makers of the country are ignoring the law, how can the ordinary citizens be expected to abide by law, and still less the rules.

Unit 7

1.How does the notion of beauty held by the ancient Greeks basically difffer

from the modern one?

For the ancient Greeks beauty embraces both inside and outside excellence, a combination of a person’s virtue and good looks. In present-day English beauty reffers exclusively to the good looks of a female.

2.In what sense is the word “beauty” used in the sentence “we are more wary of

the enchantments of beauty”? And how do you interpret the sentence?

In the overall sense of the word, i.e. overall excellence. We are more aware of the aspects “beauty” has, which we think distinguishable and should be distinguished.

3.What does Sontag mean by “And beauty has continued to lose prestige”?

It has lost prestige when its meaning was narrowed down from overall excellence to superficial enchantment. And it further lost prestige when the superficial enchantment it reffered to became associated with the fair sex only.

4.Why does Sontag think that regarding women as the beautiful sex is

detrimental to both the notion of beauty and that of women?

It depreciates the notion of beauty itself, and implies a sexually unfair judgment of women.

5.What does Sontag refer to by “stereotypes” in the sentence of par a.5? And

what have they to do with the “Mixed reputation” beauty enjoys?

Fixted notions of the two sexes; what people generally think a man or a woman should be like. The association of beauty with nice looks but dependence and inability, and disassociation with intellect and success give it a mixed reputation.

6.Can you think of any concrete example of what Sontag calls “a flattering

idealization of their sex”? What effect does such idealization have on women?

Winners of a beauty contest, Miss America, sex smbols, Marylin Monroe, some fashion models. Women are encouraged to look as attactive as possible, given the models of what they should and could possibly look like.

7.Contrasting para.6 with para.7, do you think society is fair in its expectations

of men and women with regard to their looks?

Definitely not. For women perfection is the goal; for men a small imperfection is considered favourably.

8.What critical view does Sontag take of Cocteau’s remark “The privileges of

beauty are immense”?

Refer to the paragraph.

9.What/Who has made it a woman’s duty to preen? If a woman succeeds in

keeping herself looking nice, how would she expect society in general to assess her?

Social conventions. Her good looks conceal and empty mind; superficial allurement is the best asset she can claim.

10.Do you agree with Sontag that it is dangerous to consider persons as split

between what is “inside” and what is “outside”?

It is not totally irrational to consider the “inside” and “outside” of a person separately for they do not always go together.

However, danger arises when the two aspects are placed at opposite ends and regarded as incompatible. This will entail an erroneous notion of women.

11.To get women out of the trap they are caught in, Sontag suggests that they

“get some critical distance from that excellence and privilege which is beauty”. What do you think this means?

Disassociate themselves from the notion of beauty as far as possible;

De-emphasize the notion of beauty in their life.

12.What does “the mythology of the feminine” mea n?

The traditional but not well-grounded notion of what women should be like.

Unit 10 Euphemism

1. What do you know about the structure of the word “euphemism”?

It consists of three bound morphemes, all Greek in origin: eu-(good), phem-(voice), and –ism (act or result).

2. Why is a term like “garbage man”, “down-to-earth” and “sanitation engineer” “auspicious” and “exalted”?

Down-to-earth—factual, telling what something actually is; auspicious and exalted—favorable and glorified, raising the status of the man referred to.

3. Can you think of a statement that reiterates the point Postman makes at the beginning of para.2 when he says “things do not have real names”?

The meaning of the majority of words is arbitrary and conventional; thus words are no more than labels given to things.

4. How do you understand the sentence “A pig is not called ‘pig’ because it is so dirty”?

A pig is called a “pig” not because it is so dirty.

This is an instance of transferred negation.

5. Do you think Postman is self-contradictory in para.2, where he says both “things do not have ‘real’ name” and “a name is usually so firmly associated with the things it denotes”?

No. A name given to a thing in most cases does not have anything to do with the qualities of the thing. But in the course of using the name to refer to the thing, the user has gradually come to establish association between the two.

6. Do you agree with Postman when he says at the end of para.2 “…if you change the names of things, … the nature of the thing itself”?

This may sound a bit dubious. While the first change (change in the way people regard things) has been evidenced, the second change (change in the nature of the thing itself) has not.

7. In what sense does calling a garbage man a sanitation engineer illustrate Postman’s statement “euphemizing is a perfectly intelligent method of generating new and useful ways of perceiving things”?

The status of a garbage man is considerably raised in the eye of the public from a “man” to “an engineer”. “Garbage”, a word with b ad connotations is replaced by “sanitation”, a shift of focus from what he disposes of to what he preserves.

8. Explain, according to Postman’s argument, why the attempt to rename “old people” “senior citizens” has turned out successful and that to rename “boys and girls” “childpersons” would not?

Among the general public as well as the old people themselves, there is the urge for recognition of their political identity. But so far there is has not emerged such an urge to eliminate the gender distinction be tween “boys and girls”.

9. Do you think Postman is very convincing when he cites as an illustration of the power of names the change in people’s perception and attitudes that accompanied the change from “Negroes” to “blacks”?

Not really. The change in name might not have been so powerful as Postman assumes. If there was any marked change in people’s perception of and attitude to the African origin in the 1960s, it should really be attributed to the mounting civil rights movement at that time.

高级英语第六课Blackmail译文

第六课 讹诈 阿瑟?黑利 负责饭店保安工作的欧吉维探长打了那个神秘的电话，本来说好一个小时后光临克罗伊敦夫妇所住的套房的，可实际上却过了两个小时才到。结果，当外间门上的电铃终于发出沉闷的嗡嗡声时，公爵夫妇的神经都紧张到了极点。 公爵夫人亲自去开门。此前她早已借故把女仆支开，并且狠心地给那位脸儿圆圆的、见到狗就怕得要死的男秘书派了一个要命的差事，让他牵着贝德林顿狼犬出去散步。想到这两个人随时都会回来，她自己的紧张情绪怎么也松弛不下来。 随着欧吉维进屋的是一团雪茄烟雾。当他随着她走进起居室时，公爵夫人目光直射着这个大肥佬嘴里叼着的那烧了半截的雪茄。“我丈夫和我都讨厌浓烈的烟味，您行行好把它灭了吧!” 探长那双夹在面部隆起的肉堆中的猪眼睛轻蔑地将她上下打量了一番。接着，他便移动目光，对这个宽敞豪华、设备齐全的房间扫视了一周，看到了那位正背朝窗户、神色茫然地望着他们的公爵夫人。 “你们这套房间布置得倒挺讲究的呢。”欧吉维慢条斯理地从口中拿下雪茄，敲掉烟灰，然后将烟蒂扔向靠右边的一个装饰性壁炉，但他失了准头，烟蒂掉到地毯上，他也不去管它。公爵夫人的嘴唇绷得紧紧的。她没好气地说道，“我想你该不是为谈论房间布置到这儿来的吧。” 他乐得咯咯直笑，肥胖的身子也跟着抖动起来。“不是的，夫人，怎么会呢!不过，我确实喜爱高雅的东西。”他压低了他那极端刺耳的尖嗓音接着说，“比如像你们那辆小轿车，就是停在饭店的那辆，美洲虎牌，是的吧?” “噢!”这声音不像是从口中说出来的，倒像是从克罗伊敦公爵鼻子中呼出来的。他的夫人马上瞪了他一眼，以示警告。 “我们的车子与你有什么相干呢?” 公爵夫人的这句问话似乎是个信号，一听到这个信号，探长的态度马上就变了。他猝然问道，“这儿还有别的人么?” 公爵回答道，“没有。我们早把他们都打发出去了。”

Was I not at the scene of the crime? 踏上这块土地，呼吸着广岛的空气，对我来说这行动本身已是一套令人激动的经历，其意义远远超过我以往所进行的任何一次旅行或采访活动。难道我不就是在犯罪现场吗? 3、The tall buildings of the martyred city flashed by as we lurched from side to side in response to the driver's sharp twists of the wheel. 出租车穿过广岛市区狭窄的街巷全速奔驰，我们的身子随着司机手中方向盘的一次次急转而前俯后仰，东倒西歪。与此同时，这座曾惨遭劫难的城市的高楼大厦则一座座地从我们身边飞掠而过。 4、Quite unexpectedly, the strange emotion which had overwhelmed me at the station returned, and I was again crushed by the thought that I now stood on the site of the first atomic bombardment, where thousands upon thousands of people had been slainin one second, where thousands upon thousands of others had lingered on to die in slow agony . 出人意料的是，刚到广岛车站时袭扰着我的那种异样的忧伤情绪竟在这时重新袭上心头，我的心情又难受起来，因为我又一次意识到自己置身于曾遭受第一颗原子弹轰击的现场。这儿曾有成千上万的生命顷刻之间即遭毁灭，还有成千上万的人在痛苦的煎熬中慢慢死去。5、Seldom has a city gained such world renown, and I am proud and happy to welcome you to Hiroshima, a town known throughout the world for its--- oysters". 难得有个城市像广岛这样闻名遐迩。我既高兴而又自豪地欢迎诸位来到广岛。令广岛如此举世闻名的乃是它的——牡蛎。 6、There are two different schools of thought in this city of oysters, one that would like to preserve traces of the bomb, and the other that would like to get rid of everything, even the monument that was erected at the point of impact. 我之所以对您讲起这些，是因为我已差不多步入老年了。在这个以牡蛎闻名的城市里有两种截然不同的意见，一种主张保存原子弹爆炸留下的痕迹，另一种则主张销毁一切痕迹，甚至要拆除立于爆炸中心的纪念碑。 7、"If you write about this city, do not forget to say that it is the gayest city in Japan, even if many of the town's people still bear hidden wounds, and burns." “假如您要描写这座城市的话，千万别忘记告诉人们这是日本最快乐的城市，尽管这里的市民许多人身上还带着暗伤和明显的灼伤。” 8、But later my hair began to fall out, and my belly turned to water. 但到后来，我的头发开始脱落，腹内开始出水

Lesson 8 Most investigations in the field of industrial psychology are concerned with the question of how the productivity of the individual worker can be increased, and how he can be made to work with less friction; psychology has lent its services to "human engineering," an attempt to treat the worker and employee like a machine which runs better when it is well oiled. While Taylor was primarily concerned with a better organization of the technical use of the worker's physical powers, most industrial psychologists are mainly concerned with the manipulation of the worker's psyche The underlying idea can be formulated like this: if he works better when he is happy, then let us make him happy, secure, satisfied, or anything else, provided it raises his output and diminishes friction. In the name of " human relations," the worker is treated with all devices which suit values are recommended in the interest of better relations a completely alienated person; even happiness and human with the public. Thus, for instance, according to Time magazine, one of the best-known American psychiatrists said to a group of fifteen hundred Supermarket executives: "It's going to be an increased satisfaction to our customers if we are happy... It is going to pay off in cold dollars and cents to management, if we could put some of these general principles of values, human relationships, really into practice." One speaks of "human relations" and one means the most inhuman relations, those between alienated automatons ; one speaks of happiness and means the perfect routinization which has driven out the last doubt and all spontaneity 在工业心理学方面的大多数调查都是关于如何使工人的生产率得以提高，如何能使他少带一些抵触情绪去工作。心理学已用来服务于"人类工程"，即试图把工人和雇员当作机器来对待，认为他们也像机器一样，只要加好油，就能运转得好一些。泰勒主要关心的是如何在工业生产上更好地组织使用工人的体力，而大多数工业心理学家关心的主要是如何左右工人的心灵。可以这样来表达其基本思想：如果他高兴就能工作得好一些的话，那么就让我们使他高兴、安心、满意或别的什么的，只要这样能提高他的产量，减少抵触情绪就行。在"人际关系"的名义下，他们用对一个完全冷漠的人的一切手段去对待一个工人；就是幸福和人们的价值观也是从与公众建立更好的关系这个角度提出来的。例如，据《时代》周刊报导，美国一
