Background Information

About the Author:

Virginia Woolf:1882—1941, English novelist, critic, and essayist. 1) one of the world’s greatest writers of modernism 2) woman writer for women liberation, solving women’s issues.

In the home of her father, Sir Leslie Stephen, Virginia Woolf reared/ brought up in an atmosphere of literature and learning, receiving her education in her father’s own extensive library and meeting many of the outstanding literary and intellectual figures of the day. She was keenly aware that if she had been a boy she would have gone on to Cambridge or Oxford. Later with this sense of injustice, she wrote two feminist works,A Room of One’s Own (1929) and Three Guineas (1938). Her mother died when she was 13.and she had a mental breakdown. When she had a second mental breakdown she tried to commit suicide by jumping out of a window. She remained in frail health all her life. After her father’s death, Virginia and her sister, Vanessa, hosted many gatherings of artists and writers who had been friends at Cambridge University. This began what came to be known as the Bloomsbury Group. Virginia Woolf’s books draw largely on her own life experience. Her childhood provides the background for her novel To the Lighthouse. Almost all of her characters are members of her own leisured, intellectual, upper—middle class. Many of the novels are set in London, where she lived most of her life. In 1941, profoundly depressed by the war and afraid of the recurrence of a nervous breakdown, she filled her pockets with stones and drowned herself in the River Ouse, leaving suicide note for her husband and sister. Her major works include Jacob’s room 1922; Mrs Dalloway 1925; To the Lighthouse 1927; Orlando: A Biography 1928 ; A Room of One’s Own 1929 ; and essays The Death of a Moth 1942; A Haunted House 1943. Figurative speech: metaphor e.g. angel; fisherman; room for your own

Detailed Study of the Text

Part I paras 1-2 the beginning part of the whole speech, introducing the topic under discussion.

Para 1 Main idea: In the profession of literature, the author finds that there are fewer experiences peculiar to women than in other profession because many women writers before her have made the road smooth.

1.Why does the author say that in the profession of literature---that are peculiar to women? The answer is in the next sentence: The road was cut many years ago by many famous women writers as well as many more unknown and forgotten women writers who have been before her, who have made the path smooth, regulating her steps. The implied meaning is that other professions, such as science, medicine, law, are newer for women, and therefore the road is harder for them, with more experiences peculiar to them. The profession of drama is an exception. Like literature, drama also involves more women than other profession.

2. All the women mentioned above are women writers who have made special contributions to English literature in their unique way. Here the author does not want to make a long list, but intends to give the idea that early women writers like Burney and Helen had already made their way into the profession of literature as early as in the 17th century.

3. Then, when I came to write, there are few material obstacles in my way: Here ―material obstacles‖ implies that there are other obstacles in her way, probably obstacles opposed to material, that is, obstacles of spiritual, mental or psychological nature. As readers, we naturally expect a discussion of those obstacles in the following parts of the essay.

4. Family peace was not broken by the scratching of a pen. Family peace: 1) Writing can’t make noise, so, calm, quiet, tranquility; 2) no quarrel with husband and others while you’re busy writin g. So, harmony, lack of worry and quarrels

5. No demand was made upon the family purse: There was no need for a writer to spend much of the family money in order to write. You just spend little money on writing, because you just need paper which is very cheap.

6.if one has a mind that way: a witty remark. The implied meaning is that though everybody can afford the money to buy paper to write all the plays of Shakespeare, who has the kind of intelligence and talent that produced those great works.

7. Pianos and models, Paris, Vienna and Berlin, masters and mistresses, are not needed by a writer: If you want to be a musician or a painter, you must own a piano or hire models, and you have to visit or even live in cultural centers like Paris, Vienna and Berlin. And you have to be taught by masters or mistresses. However, if you want to be a writer, you don’t need all these.

8. Ls The cheapness of writing paper is the reason why--- in the other professions: In the patriarchal society women have been forced into a lower financial status that men. Para2 transitional para -----easiness of writing to difficulty of writing

In this para the author responds to the host’s suggestion that she should tell the audience sth. About her own professional experiences. So she tells her own story---how she became a book reviewer when she was a girl.

1. from left to right from morning to night from beginning to end from top to

tail

2. Ls: In the lives of professional women there are usually struggles and difficulties. When they make some money, they would spend it on bread and butter, rent, shoes and stockings or butcher’s bills, all of which are basic daily necessities.

Bread and butter, rent, shoes and stockings, or butcher’s bills: synecdoche. E.g. I need ten hands (men). Give me a hand (help). foot soldier (infantry)

Para3main idea: This is an important part of her speech. In this para the speaker focuses on the first obstacle to becoming a professional women writer. She uses a figure of speech ―killing the Angel in the House‖ in describing her determination to get rid of the conventional role of women in her writing.

1. S1 What could be easier than---. But wait a moment: 1) This is a rhetorical question, implying that writing articles and buying Persian cats with the profits were very easy. 2) ―wait a moment‖ calls for a second thought or more attention from the audience, signifying that things may not as easy as they seem to be, and that sth. important is coming up. The two sentences serve as a transitional device linking her simple story with a discussion of a more serious nature.

2. Mine was about a novel by a famous man: Note the contrast between a girl, who is writing for the first time, and a famous man. The girl’s task of writing a review about

a novel by a famous man cannot be easy at all.

3. Phantom: 1) literary meaning: Something that seems to appear to the sight but has no physical existence; a ghost or a specter. 幻影；鬼怪, 幽灵. 2) figurative meaning: an apparition, a vision, sth. Feared or dreaded, sth that exists only in the mind; an illusion, any mental image 幻想, Here, Phantom appears to the sight in the form of an angel, and also it is a mental representation of the stereotyped Victorian woman.

5. The Angel in the House a poem written by Coventry Patmore, in this poem he set up the model of housewife. He believed that ideal woman is his wife, a qualified wife, an example of Victorian women.

Virtuous wife and mother（贤妻良母）-----responsible for the family, attending children and husband, doing housework, ------

6. Angel: a messenger of God and a supernatural being. The conventionalized image of an angel is one of a white-robed figure in human form with wings and a halo. When used figuratively, the word means a person, esp. women and children, regarded as beautiful, good, innocent, etc. as an angel,. Since an angel is supernatural and often female, it is appropriate for the author to call the phantom an angel.

7. It was she who used to come between me and my paper when I was writing reviews: She used to cause argument or problems between me and what I was writing. Here the paper stands for what she was writing. If something comes between two people or things, it causes an argument or problems between them.

8. Took the leg: In western culture, chicken legs are cheaper and tasteless, (in China, it is opposite, chicken breast is tasteless, and the chicken leg is delicious) so women should sacrifice themselves to eat it

9. Drought: draft. A current of air in a room. In Britain, it is wet and cold, so it is uncomfortable to sit in a draught. The most comfortable place in an English house is by the fireplace. But if there was a drought, women should sit in it another example to

prove women’s spirit of sacrifice and unselfishness.

10. She was so constituted that she had never had a mind or a wish of her own: She was made up or formed in such a way that she never had an opinion or wish of her own. The word ―constituted‖ implies that the traditional values were so deeply rooted/planted in her mind that she didn’t think of herself, and didn’t have her own mind or wish.

11. The shadow of her wings fell on my page: When writing, she has to fight against the image of this kind of women. It was hard for her to get rid of the influence of traditional writing skills.

12.Directly:conj. (Chiefly British) as soon as.一…就；刚…就we came directly we got your telephone.

13. be sympathetic, be tender, flatter, deceive, use all the arts and wiles of our sex: These words reflect the traditional Victorian values about gender roles. As soon as the author began to write her review, she seemed to hear a voice telling her what to do. The author is urged to use tricks of the female sex because a woman has to do so in order to be successful in a man-dominated profession.

14. Have sb. Up: (usu. Used in passive voice) cause sb. To be accused of a crime, etc. in a law court. 押送（到法庭）；对某人起诉He was had up for dangerous driving.

15. Act in self-defense: If I didn’t kill her, she would kill me; this is a life –and –death struggle.

She would have plucked the heart of my writing: there would be no meaning in my writing; I would become a meaningless writer, which would destroy my future.

16. Had I not killed her she would have killed me: If I had not done so (getting rid of these Victorian attitudes completely), these traditional ideas would have destroyed me. It is a life-and-death struggle.

17. She would have plucked the heart out of writing: metaphor of the Angel in the House. Those conventional attitudes would have taken away the most important part of her writing, that is, the essence of her writing, which is, as explained in the next sentence, having a mind of your own, expressing what you think to be the truth about human relations, morality, and sex.

18.ll these questions, according to the angel in the house, cannot be dealt with--- if they are to succeed: According to the Victorian attitudes, women are not supposed to discuss and explore these questions freely and openly. They must use their charm to gain recognition from men, they must make concessions in their arguments, and they must tell lies in order to succeed in the profession of writing.

19. Thus, whenever I felt the shadow of her wings or the radiance of her halo upon my page, I took up the inkpot and flung it at her: Thus, whenever I felt the influence of the Victorian attitudes on my writing, I fought back with all my power.

20. She died hard: She did not die easily. She had to be killed. One had to fight against the Victorian traditions bravely and resolutely in order to get rid of them. It is difficult to fight against her.

21. Her fictitious nature was of great assistance to her. It is far harder to kill a phantom than a reality: The phantom or the Angel in the House is not a real person. The author is only personifying it. It does not have a physical form. In fact it is a

mental image and has an imaginary nature. So, it is more difficult to kill a phantom (for it is invisible) than to kill a reality (for it is visible) (SARS is more threatened than a war for it is invisible)

22. She was always creeping back when I thought I had dispatched her: It is hard to overcome those prejudices once and for all. When you think that you have done away with them, you will find they are back again. So the struggle takes a long time, as explained in the next sentence.

23. Though I flatter myself that I killed her in the end--- in search of adventures: Although I made myself believe that I killed her in the end, the struggle was severe and it took so much more time than had been expected that one would rather spend all that time on learning Greek grammar or traveling in the world in search of adventure. Flatter myself: If you flatter yourself that sth. Is true about your abilities or achievements you made yourself believe it is true, although it is not. So when the author says that she flatters herself that she had killed the phantom in the end, she implies that actually she had not really put an end to the existence of the phantom: it may come back again.

24. But it was a real experience--- the occupation of a woman writer: the last two sentences of this para sum up the main idea of her first experience as a woman writer: killing the Angel in the House. That is, all women writers had to make continuous efforts to fight against the strong influence of the Victorian attitudes about the traditional role of women.

Para4main idea: After the Angel was dead, the question which remains to be answered is ―what is a woman?‖. It is a transitional link between the author’s first and second experiences.

1. She had rid herself of falsehood: She had got rid of those wrong ideas and stopped telling lies.

2. I mean, what is a woman?: I mean, what is the identity of a woman? This seemingly simple question implies that: When traditional values are criticized, it takes time for new values to be shaped and accepted. This is a long process.

3.I don’t believe t hat anybody can know until---open to human skill: I believe that to know what is a woman, we women have to participate in all the arts and professions open to human knowledge and understanding and to give expressions to our feelings in creative forms.

Para5 main idea: In this para the author talks about her second experience in her profession of literature. As a novelist, she wished to remain ―as unconscious as possible‖ so that nothing might disturb or disquiet the imagination. But she was faced with the conflict between her own approach to art and the conventional approach expected of her by male critics. She believed that sex-consciousness was a great hindrance to women’s writing. To illustrate this point she employs a second figure of speech, ―the image of a fisherman lying sunk in dreams on the verge of a deep lake.‖1.I hope I am not give away professional secrets--- to be as unconscious as possible: Why does the author say that a novelist’s chief desire is to be as unconscious as possible? Because the ―unconscious‖ state would allow her to bring her imagination into the fullest play, to see and to express her reality in stream of consciousness,

fragmentation, or to develop her feminine writing.

2. He has to induce in himself a state of perpetual lethargy: He has to cause in himself

a particular condition in which he will remain abnormally drowsy and sluggish for a long time.

3. He wants life to proceed with quiet and regularity---- the imagination: Why does the author want life to proceed with quiet and regularity? Why does the author want to do the same things day after day, month after month? Meeting people, reading books and doing things are some of the external factors of the author’s life, the routine, and the predictable social events. Wanting to see the same people, to read same books and to do the same things further explains her idea about life with the utmost quiet and regularity. Reducing everyday life to unchanging routines avoids having to pay much attention to the people or events. In this way writers do not have to worry about meals, children or housecleaning but only write.他希望在他写作时，他每天所的人，读的书，做的事都是相同的，这样任何事物都不会打破他生活的幻想，也不会搅乱他的四处探求以及对那令人难以琢磨的东西――想象力的突然发现。

The illusion in which he is living: the illusion refers to the fictional world a writer is creating in words and living in his imagination.

The author uses the words ―nosing‖, ―feelings around‖, ―darts‖, ―dashes‖ metaphorically, indicating that a modernist novelist has to search new and experimental ways of expressing himself and to discover his imagination, which is a shy and illusive spirit.

4. The image that comes to my mind---with a rod held out over the water : Here the author uses a fisherman as a metaphor to describe her professional experience.

5. She was letting her imagination sweep--- in the depths of our unconscious being: She was letting her imagination explore freely every corner of her inner world that lies hidden in the deepest parts of our unconscious existence.

6. Now came the experience, the experience that --- than with men:

1) What was the experience? The answer can be found in her following remarks: Her imagination could no longer work, for the consciousness of what men will say of a woman who speaks the truth about her passions had roused her from her artist’s state of unconsciousness.

2) Why does the author believe that this experience was far more common with women writers than with men? The author answers this question in the last sentence of this para. For though men sensibly allow themselves great freedom in these respects( such as speaking the truth about their passions), the author doubts that they realize or can control the extreme severity with which they condemn such freedom in women.

7. The line raced through her fingers---The girl was roused from her dream: In these sentences the author goes on with her metaphor of the fisherman. The fisherman (a fisherwoman, in this case) intended to seek the pools, the depths and the dark places where the largest fish would be. But suddenly, the line slipped through her fingers because it had hit upon sth. hard. As a result there was an explosion, foam (from the disturbed water) and confusion. Her fishing was interrupted, and she was roused from

her dream. Here the process of fishing is compared to the process of creative writing. That is, the writer’s imagination freely explored and examined the depths of the unconscious being, where hidden thoughts, feelings and impulses were to be found. Then suddenly the writer’s imagination came across a big obstacle, and she was roused from her artist’s state of unconsciousness.

8. To speak without figure---men would be shocked: Her imagination was exploring freely until she thought of sth. sth. about the body, sth. about the passions. But she realized that it was improper for her as a woman to tell the truth about the body and about the passions because men would be shocked.

To speak without figure: figure means figure of speech. To speak directly.不用修辞手段直截了当地说

9. The consciousness of what men will say of a woman--- her artist’s state of unconsciousness: She realized that men did not approve of a woman daring to tell the truth about the body and her passions. They would surely say bad things about such a woman. This realization interrupted her imagination and roused her from the state of unconsciousness, in which an artist desired to be.

10 For though men sensibly allow themselves great freedom in these respects---such freedom in women: It was a sensible thing for men to give themselves great freedom to talk about the body and their passions. But if women want to have the same freedom, men condemn such freedom in women. And I do not believe that they realize how severely they condemn such freedom in women, nor do I believe that they can control their extremely severe condemnation of such freedom in women. Doubt: question, feel distrust, be inclined to disbelieve. E.g. I doubt that any woman has solved it yet.

Suspect: to think it probably or likely, guess, suppose. E.g. I suspect that this state is the same for both men and women.

Para6 main idea: This para sums up the author’s two experiences, pointing out that the second obstacle is more difficult to overcome than the first. Women have many prejudices to overcome in the profession of literature and esp. in new professions that women are entering.

Why is the second obstacle more difficult to solve? The first has sth. To do with the conscious way of thinking, one’s education, social attitudes and traditional values, etc. The second experience has to do with one’s unconsciousness, the depths of the unconscious being. Thus it is more difficult to define, to examine and certainly harder to deal with.

1. Indeed it will be a long time still --- a rock to be dashed against: it will take a long time for women to rid themselves of false values and attitudes and to overcome the obstacle to telling the truth about their body and passions.

Para7main idea: In this last para Woolf concludes her speech by raising some important questions concerning the new role of women and the new relationship between men and women

1. The first two sentences of this para link up the author as an individual woman with the other women as a group, making her personal experiences common to all women.

2. S

3. Even when the path is nominally open--- looming in her way: Even when the

path is open to women in name only, when outwardly there is nothing to prevent a woman from being a doctor, a lawyer, a civil servant, inwardly there are still false ideas and obstacles impeding a woman’s progress.

3. You have won rooms of your own in the house hitherto exclusively owned by men: ―a room of one’s own‖ is a metaphor. A room is a space not only space for living, but also space for creative activity. Here a room is compared to freedom, while the house is compared to the whole society. The implied meaning of this sentence is that through fighting against the Angel in the House, through great labor and effort, some women have gained a position or certain freedom in a society which have been dominated by men up to now.

4. But this freedom is only a beginning; the room is your own---it has to be shared: here Woolf is continuing with her metaphor of a room of one’s own. She is saying that when women are able to pay the rent or earn 500 pounds a year, they have won financial independence to a certain extent. She thinks that this freedom is only a beginning, and that women still have a long way to go. For when the old ideas, attitudes and values have been done away with, a void (empty or open space) is left. And that void has to be filled with new ideas, attitudes and values.

5. How are you going to furnish it, how are you going to decorate it--- upon what terms? : By these questions, the author reminds the audience that women are now faced with a set of new questions such as ―what is the new role of a woman?‖ ―what should be the relationship between men and women?‖. She only raises the questions in her concluding remark of this piece, without attempting to answer them. These issues are fully explored in her famous feminist critical work ―A Room of One’s Own‖.

He and a colleague were to spend two years there teaching English at a teacher training college. They were the only foreigners in the town. The first semester finished at the end of January and they had four weeks off f or the Spring Festival. They could go anywhere they wished. They decided to take a boat downstream. We decided to buy tickets for the Jiangyou boat. 我们打算买到“江油号”的船票。 Our colleagues said, “You shouldn’t go on those ships. They are very crowded. They are mainly for goods and people trading along the river. 同事们说：“你们不要坐那种船。它们太拥挤，主要是用来运货的。乘客多事沿江做生意的人。 They don’t stop at the temples and there won’t be any other foreigners.” That sounded fine to me. 那些船不停靠庙宇，也不会有别的外国游人乘坐。”我觉得听起来还不错。 We just had to show our passports and they let us get on the boat.我们出示护照后边上了船。 We left the docks on a beautiful afternoon. The sun was shining brightly as we sailed downstream through a hilly region. 在一个美丽的午后，我们离开码头。当我们顺流而下穿过山区的时候，阳光很灿烂。 Men rode bamboo rafts along the river’s edge and coal boats went past. 男人们乘坐着江边的竹筏，运煤的小船来来往往。 As the sun set we docked at Fengdu. We could see the sun setting behind the white pagoda. It was beautiful. 太阳落山时，我们的船在丰都靠岸。我们目睹太阳在白塔后西沉，美丽极了。 We slept through the first gorge, which is called the Qutang Gorge. 穿过长江第一峡——翟塘峡时，我们正在睡梦中。 The gorge narrows to 350 feet as the river rushes through the tow-mile-high mountains. 江水在两英里高峰峦间奔流，峡谷狭窄处只有350英尺。 “Oh, well,” my friend said, “at least we have two more left.”我朋友说；“至少我们还能看见另外两个峡谷”。 At Wushan we made a detour up the Daning River to see some of the smaller gorges. 船到巫山时，我们绕道溯游大宁河，观赏了几处小峡谷。 The next day we went through the ig gorges on the Yangtze River. It was a lovely morning as we went through the Wu Gorge. 第二天，我们经过了长江的大峡谷。在一个美丽的上午轮船驶过巫峡。 We passed the Xiang River, home of Qu Yuan, the 3rd century BC poet. There was so much history long the Yangtze River. 我们还经过了湘江，那是公元前三世纪一位诗人——屈原的家乡。 Every rock looked like a person or animal, every stream that joined the great river carried its legends, every hill was heavy with the past. 长江有太多的历史。块块巨石形象各异，条条支流都流淌着传说，座座小山承载着过往。 As we came out of the third gorge, the Xiling Gorge, we sailed into the construction site of the dam. 穿过长江三峡+西陵峡后，轮船驶入大坝建设处的江面。 All the passengers came on deck. We took pictures and pointed at the site, but we weren’t allowed to get off the boat. 所有乘客都上了甲板，大家拍照片，对着工地指指点点，但不可以下船。 The Chinese flag was blowing in the wind. On a distant mountain was a sign in 20-foot characters. “Build the Three Gorges Dam, Exploit the Yangtze River,” it said. 五星红旗在风中飘扬着。远山上写着英尺大的汉子“建造长江大坝，开发长江资源”。

人教版高中英语必修四课文翻译

人教版高中英语必修四课文翻译第一单元：非洲野生动物研究者清晨5点45分，太阳刚从东非的贡贝国家公园的上空升起，我们一行人准备按照简研究黑猩猩的方法去森林里拜访它们。简研究这些黑猩猩家族已经很多年了，她帮助人们了解黑猩猩跟人类的行为是多么的相似。我们当天的首项任务就是观察黑猩猩一家是如何醒来的。这意味着我们要返回前一天晚上我们离开黑猩猩一家睡觉的大树旁。大家坐在树荫下等待着，这时候猩猩们睡醒了，准备离开。然后这群黑猩猩向森林深处漫步而去，我们尾随其后。在大部分时间里，黑猩猩或相互喂食，或彼此擦身，这在它们的家庭里是表示爱的方式。简预先提醒我们，到下午的时候我们就会又脏又累。她说对了。不过到傍晚时分我们觉得这一切都是值得的。我们看到黑猩猩妈妈跟她的幼子们在树上玩耍，后来看见它们晚上一切回窝里睡觉了。我明白了猩猩家庭成员之间的联系像人类家庭一样紧密。在简之前没有人完全了解黑猩猩的行为。她花了多年的时间来观察并记录黑猩猩的日常生活。从孩提时代起，简就想在动物生活的环境中研究它们。但是，这不是一件简单的事。当她1960年最初来到贡贝时，对女性来说，住进大森林还是很稀罕的事情。她母亲头几个月来帮过她的忙，这才使她得以开始自己的计划。她的工作改变了人们对黑猩猩的看法。比方说，她的一个重要发现是黑猩猩猎食动物。而在此之前，人们一直认为黑猩猩只吃水果和坚果。她曾经亲眼看到过一群黑猩猩捕杀一只猴子，然后把它吃掉。她还发现了黑猩猩之间是如何交流的，而她对黑猩猩肢体语言的研究帮助她勾勒出黑猩猩的社会体系。 40年来，简古道尔一直在呼吁世人了解并尊重这些动物的生活。她主张应该让野生动物留在野外生活，而不能用于娱乐或广告。她还为黑猩猩建起了可以安全生活的保护区。她的生活是忙忙碌碌的，然而，正如她所说的：“我一旦停下来，所有的一切都会涌上心头。我就会想起实验室的黑猩猩，太可怕了。每当我看着野生黑猩猩时，这个念头总是萦绕着我。我会对自己说：‘难道它们不幸运吗？’然后我就想起那些没有任何过错却被关在笼子里的小黑猩猩。一旦你看到这些，你就永远不会忘记……” 简已经得到了她想要得到的一切：在动物的栖息地工作；获得博士学位；还向世人证明女人和男人一样也能在森林里生活。她激励着人们为妇女们的成就而欢呼喝彩。
