standards of behavior that bore no relationship to the bustling business medium in which they were expected to battle for success.

Twenties learned to think of themselves, in the words of Gertrude Stein, as the “lost generation” .

more often misdirected --but never” lost”.

●The intellectuals of the Twenties, the “sad young men” as Fascist Fitzgerald called them, cursed their luck

but didn?t die; escaped but voluntarily returned ; flayed the Babbitts but loved their country, and in so doing gave the nation the liveliest ,freshest , most stimulation writing in its literary experience.

20年代的知识分子被F.斯科特.菲茨杰拉德称为“悲哀的青年一代”，他们诅咒运气，但没有因此消亡；他们逃避，但又自愿地返回；他们猛烈抨击市侩，但却热爱自己的国家。因此这个国家创作出了最具有生命，最令人耳目一新和最有刺激性的文学作品。

3....there are not many of these men , either on the board or the shop floor...

There are not many snarling shop stewards in the workshop,nor are there many cruel wealthy employers on the board of directors.

4.It demands bigness ,and they are suspicious of bigness.

The contemporary world demands that everything should be done on a big scale and the English do not trust bigness.

5.Against this , at least superficially ,Englishness seems a poor shadowy show...

At least on the surface ,when Englishness is put against the power and success of Admass , Englishness seems to put up a rather poor performance.

6....while Englishness is not hostile to change,it is deeply suspicious of change for change?s sake... Englishness is not against change, but it believes that changing just for change?s sake and not other useful purposes is very wrong and harmful.

7.To put cars and motorways before houses seems to Englishness a communal imbecility.

To regard cars and motorways as more important than houses seems to Englishness a public stupidity.

8.I must add that while Englishness can still fight on ,Admass could be winning.

I must further say that while Englishness can go on fighting, there is a great possibility for Admass to win.

9.It must have some moral capital to draw upon,and soon it may be asking for an overdraft.

Englishness draws its strength from a reservoir of strong moral and ethical principles ,and soon it may be asking for strength which this reservoir of principles cannot provide.

10.They probably believe ,as I do , that the Admass”Good Life” is a fraud on all counts.

There people probably believe ,as I do,that the “Good Life”promised by Admass is false and dishonest in all respects.

11....he will not even find much satisfaction in this scrounging messy existence, which does nothing for a man?s self-respect.

12.To them the House of Commons is a remote squabbling-shop.

These people consider the House of Commons as a place rather far away from them where some people are always quarreling and arguing over some small matters.

13...heavy hands can fall on the shoulders that have been shrugging away politics.

They were very wrong to ignore politics for they can now suddenly and for no reason be arrested and thrown into prison.

●The English are even more different than they think they are , though not more different than they feel they

are.

英国人甚至比他们所认为的自己更加与众不同，但是同他们所感觉到的自己差不多。

●This is because there are fewer fanatical believers among the English , and at the same time ,below the noisy

arguments ,the abuse and the quarrels, there is a reservoir of instinctive fellow-feeling,not yet exhausted though it may not be filling up.

这是因为在英国人当中，没有多少狂热的信徒，同时，在喧闹的争论、谩骂和争吵的背后，储蓄了一种本能的同胞之情，虽然没有满溢但也尚未枯竭。

●The real English , who are “different”,who have inherited Englishness and have not yet thrown away their

inheritance cannot feel at home in the contemporary world, representing the accelerated development of our whole age.

“与众不同的”真正的英国人继承了英国特性，并且尚未丢弃他们的传统，他们对这个代表着我们这个时代快速发展的当代世界感到不自在。

●Against this , at least superficially, Englishness seems a poor shadowy show- a faint pencil sketch beside a

poster in full color -belonging as it really does to the invisible inner world, merely offering states of mind in place of that rich variety of things.

与之相对的是，至少从表面上看来，英国特性似乎是一场不轻眼的影子戏----就像色彩鲜艳的海报旁边的一副模糊的铅笔素描---属于看不见的内心世界，只提供人的心境，而不提供种类繁多的物质用品。但是尽管物质用品是重要的，心境更重要。

●But it is worth noting along the way that while America has been for many years the chief advocate of

Admass, America has shown us too many desperately worried executives dropping into early graves, too many exhausted salesmen taking refuge in bars and breaking up their homes ,too many workmen suffering from monotony or time-and -motion studies and wondering how the hell they got into these traps

但是，值得注意的是，尽管美国多年来一直是“大众广告”的主要倡导者，美国所展现给我们的是太多忧虑过度的经理英年早逝，太多疲惫不堪的推销员在酒吧里借酒消愁，导致了家庭破裂，太多的工人遭受单调的时间-动作研究之苦，搞不明白他们是如何陷入这些陷阱之中的。

●New Englishness , with its relation to the unconscious, its dependence upon instinct and intuition, cannot

break its links with the past : it has deep long roots.

现在，英国特性与潜意识相关联，依赖于本能和直觉，不能与过去相割裂：它已根深蒂固。

●Furthermore, while Englishness is not hostile to change ,it is deeply suspicious of change for change?s

sake,rejecting the idea that we are now committed to some inevitable mechanical progress.

而且，尽管英国特性对变革没有什么敌意，却极度怀疑为了变革而变革的做法，拒绝那种认为我们必须致力于一些不可避免的机械进步的观点。

●Behind the constant bickering , the sudden walk-outs and strikes , the “blood-mindedness”,which bewilder so

many foreign commentators,is the conflict between Admass , offering so much, and the Englishness that instinctively recoils from Admassian values and life-style.

在不断争吵的背后，困扰了如此多外国时事评论员的突发罢工和故意作对，成了大众广告和英国特性之间的冲突：前者提供了如此多的东西，后者不愿接受大众广告所提倡的价值观和生活方式。

●Moreover ,sooner or later they will have to put an end to this conflict between Admass and what remains of

their Englishness ,coming down decisively on one side or the other, for they cannot enjoy both together .

并且，他们迟早将结束这场大众广告和他们所保留的英国特性之间的冲突，果断地回到某一方，因为他们不能同时享有二者。

●All heavily industrialized societies are in the boredom business.

所有高度工业化的社会都在制造无聊乏味。

●Dictatorships have thrived on majorities that are apathetic and then frightened , and on minorities that are

fanatically divided,brutally quarrelsome and stupid.

独裁统治在那些冷漠而惶恐的多数人和严重分裂，激烈争吵和愚蠢的少数人之间兴盛起来。

● A rather poorer and harder way of life will not defeat them so long as it is not harder and poorer in spirit, so

long as it still refuses to reject Englishness -for so many centuries the secret of the islanders oddity and irrationality , their many weakness , they creative strength.

再贫困和再艰难的生活方式都不能打败他们，只要他们在精神上不感到艰难和贫困，只要仍然拒绝抛弃英国特性--这就是这么多世纪以来，岛国居民的奇特、非理性、缺点和创造力的奥秘所在。

THE LOONS 课后习题答案/answer I . 1)The Tonnerres were poor The basis of their dwelling was a small square cabin made of poles and mud, which had been built some fifty years before. As the Tonnerres had increased in number, their settlement had been added, until thc clearing at the foot of the town hill was a chaos of lean-tos, wooden packing cases, warped lumber, discarded car tyres, ramshackle chicken coops, tangled strands of barbed wire and rusty tin cans. 2)Sometimes, one of them would get involved in a fight on Main Street and be put for the night in the barred cell underneath the Court House. 3)Because she had had tuberculosis of the bone, and should have a couple of months rest to get better. 4)Her mother first objected to take Piquette along because she was afraid that the girl would spread the disease to her children and she believed that the girl was not hygienic. She then agreed to do so because she preferred Piquette to the narrator's grandmother, who promised not to go along with the family and decided to stay in the city if the girl was taken along. 5)The cottage was called Macleod, their family name. The scenery there was quite beautiful with all kinds of plants and animals at the lakeside. 6)The narrator knew that maybe Piquette was an Indian descendant who knew the woods quite well, so she tried to ask Piquette to go and play in the wood and tell her stories about woods. 7)Because Piquette thought the narrator was scorning and showing contempt for her Indian ancestors, which was just opposite to her original intention. 8)Because the narrator felt somewhat guilty. Piquette stayed most of the time in the cottage and hardly played with the narrator. At the same time, she felt there was in Piquette something strange and unknown and unfathomable. 9)That was the very rare chance she was unguarded and unmasked, so that the author could perceive her inner world. 10)Her full name is Vanessa Macleod. 11)Just as the narrator's father predicted, the loons would go away when more cottages were built at the lake with more people moving in. The loons disappeared as nature was ruined by civilization. In a similar way, Piquette and her people failed to find their position in modern society. Ⅱ. 1)who looked deadly serious, never laughed 2)Sometimes old Jules, or his son Lazarus, would get involved in a rough, noisy quarrel or fight on a Saturday night after much drinking of liquor. 3)She often missed her classes and had little interest in schoolwork. 4)I only knew her as a person who would make other people feel ill at ease. 5)She lived and moved somewhere within my range of sight (Although I saw her, I paid little attention to her). 6)If my mother had to make a choice between Grandmother Macleod and
