练习答案

Pre—class work H

1. Paraphrase.

1) Then the two men looked at each other briefly and severely and immediately Mr. Crowther went on with his reading, while Mr. Harraby-Ribston went back to his seat, sat down again breathing quickly, because he had made such an effort to throw the suitcase out of the window.

2) He was the kind of man who likes to talk and enjoys company, and had guessed that what he did would invariably start a conversation.

3) His companion might get a conclusion that there was a corpse in the suitcase. In case of that, perhaps would inform the police when the train arrived at the destination and then the policemen might ask him some embarrassing and shameful questions.

he would burst. As he naturally would rather speak than burst, he said: "Excuse me, sir, but I must say, you surprise me."

Unit 7 Task 1 【答案】 A. 1) In a mental asylum. 2) He was a member of a committee which went there to show concern for the pertinents there. 3) They were cants behaving like humans. 4) He was injured in a bus accident and became mentally ill. 5) He spent the rest of his life in comfort. B. painter, birds, animals, cats, wide, published, encouragement, A year or two, The Illustrated London News, cats' Christmas party, a hundred and fifty, world famous 【原文】 Dan Rider, a bookseller who loved good causes, was a member of a committee that visited mental asylums. On one visit he noticed a patient, a quiet little man, drawing cats. Rider looked at the drawings and gasped. "Good lord, man," he exclaimed. "You draw like Louis Wain!" "I am Louis Wain," said the artist. Most people today have never heard of Louis Wain. But, when Rider found him in 1925, he was a household name. "He made the cat his own. He invented a cat style, a cat society, a whole cat world," said H. G. Wells in a broadcast appeal a month or two later. "British cats that do not look and live like Louis Wain cats are ashamed of themselves." Before Louis Wain began drawing them, cats were kept strictly in the kitchen if they were kept at all. They were useful for catching mice and perhaps for keeping the maidservant company. Anyone else who felt affection for cats usually kept quiet about it. If a man admitted that he liked cats, he would be laughed at. The dog was the only domestic animal that could be called a friend. Louis Wain studied art as a youth and became quite a successful newspaper and magazine artist. He specialized in birds and animals, including dogs, but never drew a cat till his wife was dying. They had not been married long, and during her illness a black-and-white cat called Peter used to sit on her bed. To amuse his wife, Louis Wain used to sketch and caricature the cat while he sat by her bedside. She urged him to show these-drawings to editors, fie was unconvinced, but wanted to humour her. The first editor he approached shared his lack of enthusiasm. "Whoever would want to see a picture of a cat?" he asked, and Louis Wain put the drawings away. A year or two later he showed them to the editor of The Illustrated London News, who suggested a picture of a cats' Christmas party across two full pages. Using his old sketches of Peter, Louis Wain produced a picture containing about a hundred and fifty cats, each one different from the rest. It took him a few days to draw, and it made him world famous. For the next twenty-eight years he drew nothing but cats. He filled his house with them, and sketched them in all their moods. There was nothing subtle about his work. Its humour simply lay in showing cats performing human activities; they followed every new fashion from sea bathing to motoring. He was recognized, somewhat flatteringly, as the leading authority on the feline species. He became President of the National Cat Club and was eagerly sought after as a judge at cat shows. Louis Wain's career ended abruptly in 1914, when he was seriously injured in a
