2. Read the text for the better comprehension and answer the questions.

1) Here it means in the countryside.

2) It is difficult to tell the difference between the root crops you buy from stores and those you grow yourself in your garden.

Note:

(1) root crops: What are grown so that the roots can be used for food, such as carrots.

(2) tell apart: Recognize the difference between two people or things that are very similar.

(3) when store bought: when they are bought in stores

3) having a particular effect or influence 在起作用

It refers to the back-breaking labor human beings pretend to do in a game. (Does he not refer to pretence as back-breaking? Maybe as when a very sick person pretends to be well to save someone worry?)

4) It means that he thought about it very calmly and carefully before he made this decision never to plant it again. He was exaggerating of course.

5）waft through: float through the air in a gentle way, said of smell or noise

6）It means “seriously intend to do what you say you will do.

7）The worms were slowing coming out of the melting soil and they were delicious food for the birds of course. (And he was thinking it was delicious too, because it meant the end of winter and he could begin to garden.)

8）a piece of land for a particular purpose

“Conflict” here refers to the struggle in his mind. (No. I think it is the sense of conflict with the earth required to make a garden that he likes?)

9）Sparingly: i n small quantities 节约地。少量地

Broadcast: sow seeds over a wide area, especially by hand

10）“neurotic”means “extremely worried about something unimportant in a way that seems unreasonable to other people. The author is using this in a self-mocking tone.

11)Also, your natural tendency to act as a kind and caring father or mother begins to have an effect.

12) as it were: used for making a description sound less definite or less exact (well, used to make a comparison –gardener as parent? A kind of personification of the growing things) 可以说；在某种程度上可以说

turn upon you: Here, “turn upon/on sb” means “attack sb suddenly and without warning”

13) occupation: a job or employment, but here: a way of spending your time; a pastime

14) Here, a pointed piece of wood or metal etc for driving into the ground as a mark or for holding a rope etc

15) slight differences in degree of green

16) pocket: a small area different from the areas around it

personal reassurance: sth that makes a person feel less worried

thrusting life: life that is moving forward quickly and powerfully

17) an extension of oneself: the further growth or development of a person

Paraphrase: Gardening has to be another place where people continue to work hard to achieve something.

18) character: the qualities that make up a person’s personality

character-building: helping to develop one’s character 性格锻炼；品德培养。The author is now openly expressing the belief that gardening is an extremely important occupation, something human beings have been doing since Adam and Eve’s time. The final sentence is ironical and humorous, referring to how they disobeyed God and was driven out of the Garden.

《全新版大学英语综合教程1 课后翻译及答案》Unit 1 Growing Up 为自己而写 ——拉塞尔·贝克 从孩提时代，我还住在贝尔维尔时，我的脑子里就断断续续地转着当作家的念头，但直等到我高中三年级，这一想法才有了实现的可能。在这之前，我对所有跟英文课沾边的事都感到腻味。我觉得英文语法枯燥难懂。我痛恨那些长而乏味的段落写作，老师读着受累，我写着痛苦。弗利格尔先生接我们的高三英文课时，我就准备着在这门最最单调乏味的课上再熬上沉闷的一年。弗利格尔先生在学生中以其说话干巴和激励学生无术而出名。据说他拘谨刻板，完全落后于时代。我看他有六七十岁了，古板之极。他戴着古板的毫无装饰的眼镜，微微卷曲的头发剪得笔齐，梳得纹丝不乱。他身穿古板的套装，领带端端正正地顶着白衬衣的领扣。他长着古板的尖下巴，古板的直鼻梁，说起话来一本正经，字斟句酌，彬彬有礼，活脱脱一个滑稽的老古董。 我作好准备，打算在弗利格尔先生的班上一无所获地混上一年，不少日子过去了，还真不出所料。后半学期我们学写随笔小品文。弗利格尔先生发下一张家庭作业纸，出了不少题目供我们选择。像"暑假二三事"那样傻乎乎的题目倒是一个也没有，但绝大多数一样乏味。我把作文题带回家，一直没写，直到要交作业的前一天晚上。我躺在沙发上，最终不得不面对这一讨厌的功课，便从笔记本里抽出作文题目单粗粗一看。我的目光落在"吃意大利细面条的艺术"这个题目上。

这个题目在我脑海里唤起了一连串不同寻常的图像。贝尔维尔之夜的清晰的回忆如潮水一般涌来，当时，我们大家一起围坐在晚餐桌旁——艾伦舅舅、我母亲、查理舅舅、多丽丝、哈尔舅舅——帕特舅妈晚饭做的是意大利细面条。那时意大利细面条还是很少听说的异国食品。多丽丝和我都还从来没吃过，在座的大人也是经验不足，没有一个吃起来得心应手的。艾伦舅舅家诙谐有趣的场景全都重现在我的脑海中，我回想起来，当晚我们笑作一团，争论着该如何地把面条从盘子上送到嘴里才算合乎礼仪。 突然我就想描述那一切，描述当时那种温馨美好的气氛，但我把它写下来仅仅是想自得其乐，而不是为弗利格尔先生而写。那是我想重新捕捉并珍藏在心中的一个时刻。我想重温那个夜晚的愉快。然而，照我希望的那样去写，就会违反我在学校里学的正式作文的种种法则，弗利格尔先生也肯定会打它一个不及格。没关系。等我为自己写好了之后，我可以再为弗利格尔先生写点什么别的东西。 等我写完时已是半夜时分，再没时间为弗利格尔先生写一篇循规蹈矩、像模像样的文章了。第二天上午，我别无选择，只好把我为自己而写的贝尔维尔晚餐的故事交了上去。两天后弗利格尔先生发还批改过的作文，他把别人的都发了，就是没有我的。我正准备着遵命一放学就去弗利格尔先生那儿挨训，却看见他从桌上拿起我的作文，敲了敲桌子让大家注意听。 "好了，孩子们，"他说。"我要给你们念一篇小品文。文章的题目是： 吃意大利细面条的艺术。"

2 1 Swooping in on a shorter woman, the sailor kissed her. 2 Acting impulsively and aiming accurately, he commanded that the camera’s shutter close at the most poignant moment. 3 Grabbing the viewer’s attention, the photo never seems to let go. 4 Closing her eyes, she was content to remain unaware of her pursuer’s identity. 5 Never knowing the truth, they glossed over the war’s miseries and romanticized life. 6 One assumes that the couple will live in a split-level home, driving big cars and producing lots of children. 3 1 Regardless of the task set by the magazine which employed him, the photographer always managed to get the best picture. 2 He kept looking for the photo, regardless of the crowds. 3 Regardless of how perfectly the pose of the sailor and the woman was arranged, he didn’t have to set up this shot. 4 Regardless of the facts, people know that life will be good from now on. 5 Regardless of what people still remember of photos in the past, this one reminds us that we felt better as a nation and as individuals. 5 1 marvel at 2 popular appeal 3 highly-/full- /well-qualified 4 perceived…as 5 exceeded…expectations Translation 6 《格尔尼卡》是西班牙艺术家巴勃罗·毕加索1937年为抗议轰炸西班牙北部一个小村庄而作的一幅巨型壁画。这幅大型壁画高3.49米，宽7.76米，展示了暴力和混乱给人和动物带来的苦难以及对建筑物的破坏。令人吃惊的是，整个壁画的色调由灰、黑、白组成，没有用鲜艳的红色来表现血腥的场面，但恐怖的景象却历历在目。画面上的人物并非用写实主义的画法来表现，而是采用立体派和抽象派的画法，但无辜平民惨遭屠杀的惨象却一目了然：一位母亲怀抱死婴，张嘴尖叫，她仰面朝天，伤心欲绝；一位士兵横尸地上，手里还紧握着一把断剑；另外三个人也都处于震惊和痛苦之中。画面中的动物——包括一匹受伤的马和一只哭泣的鸟——也都被描绘成这次屠杀的无辜受害者。毫无疑问，描绘这些扭曲变形的骇人慘象的目的就是让观众感到震惊。这种对人类悲苦惨状的描绘是对战争的残酷和荒谬的深刻控诉。 7 In the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang, the murals with “flying apsaras”are one of the most well-known artefacts.
