17、词汇问题例1.in some societies the failure to bear children(or males)is a threat to the marriage and a ready cause for divorce.在某些社会里，不能生育（或不能生育男孩）会危机婚姻，是顺理成章的理由。在某些社会里，没有生孩子或没有生男孩是婚姻的一大威胁，也是现成（或很便当的）离婚理由。,例2.To speak of American literature,then,is not to assert that it is completely unlike that of Europe

22、rce is less culturally acceptable in a society that is family-oriented.,例题讲解,我想，其实谁都有一个小小花园，这便是我们的内心世界。人的智力需要开发，人的内心世界也是需要开发的。人和动物的区别，除了众所周知的诸多方面，恐怕还在于人有内心世界。心不过是人的一个重要脏器，而内心世界是一种景观，它是由外部世界不断地作用于内心渐渐形成的。每个人都无比关注自己及至亲至爱之人心脏健损，以至于稍有微疾便惶惶不可终日。但并非每个人都关注自己及至亲至爱之人的内心世界的阴晴。,In fact everyone,I think,has a s
23、mall garden and that is our inner world.Human intelligence needs to be developed,so does the inner world.What distinguishes man from animals,apart from the many well-known,also lies in the inner world.The heart is just an important organ,while the inner world is a landscape which gradually took shap

25、 the condition of their or their loved ones inner world.,But,as has been true in many other cases,when they were at last married,the most ideal of situations was found to have been changed to the most practical.Instead of having shared their original duties,and as school-boys would say,going halves,
26、they discovered that the cares of life had been doubled.This led to some distressing moments for both our friends;they understood suddenly that instead of dwelling in heaven they were still upon earth,and had made themselves slaves to new laws and limitations.Instead of being freer and happier than
27、ever before,they had assumed new responsibilities;they had established a new household,and must fulfill in some way or another the obligations of it.They looked back with affection to their engagement;they had been longing to have each other to themselves,apart from the world,but it seemed they neve
28、r felt so keenly that they were still units in modern society.,但是，正如在许多其他事情中一样，当他们最终结了婚，却发现自己最憧憬的生活早已被严峻的现实所替代。他们非但没能像学生们常挂在嘴边的“对半开”那样去分担各自的责任，反倒发现生活中的烦心事成倍地找上门来。这就使得我们那两位结了婚的朋友时不时地感到沮丧和不开心；他们突然觉得自己哪里是居住在天堂，分明依旧生活在尘世，而且还成了新的清规戒律的奴隶。比起从前，他们不仅没有更自由、更幸福，反倒得肩负起新的责任；他们既然成立了一个新家，就必须在这方面承担起这个家的义务。回首订婚之时，他们
29、心中充满了爱意；他们曾经如此可谓拥有彼此的两人世界而置周围的一切于不顾，然而，他们似乎从未这样深刻地体会到自己依然是这个现代社会的一份子。,I thought that it was a Sunday morning in May；that it was Easter Sunday，and as yet very early in the morningI was standing，as it seemed to me，at the door of mv own cottageRight before me lay the very scene which could really be co
30、mmanded from that situation，but exalted,as was usual，and solemnised by the power of dreams There were the same mountains，and the same lovely valley at their feet；but the mountains were raised to more than Alpine height，and there was interspace far larger between them of savannahs and forest lawns；th
31、e hedges were rich with white roses；and no living creature was to be seen,excepting that in the green churchyard there were cattle tranquilly reposing upon the verdant graves，and particularly round about the grave of a child whom I had once tenderly loved，just as I had really seen them，a little befo
32、re sunrise，in the same summer when that child died.我想那,是五月的一个周日的早晨；那天是复活节，一个大清早上。我站在自家小屋的门口。就在我的面前展现出了那么一番景色，从我那个位置其实能够尽收眼底，可是梦里的感觉往往如此，由于梦幻的力量，这番景象显得超凡出尘，一派肃穆气象。群山形状相同，其山脚下都有着同样可爱的山谷；不过群山挺然参天，高于阿尔卑斯峰，诸山相距空旷，丰草如茵，林地开阔，错落其间；树篱上的白玫瑰娟娟弥望；远近看不见任何生物，唯有苍翠的教堂庭院里，牛群静静地卧躺在那片郁郁葱葱的墓地歇息，好几头围绕着一个小孩的坟墓。我曾对她一腔柔情，那
33、年夏天是在旭日东升的前一刻，那孩子死去了，我如同当年那样望着牛群。,朋友之间，情趣相投、脾气对味则合、则交，反之，则离、则绝。朋友之间再熟悉、再亲密，也不能随便过头、不恭不敬，这样，默契和平衡将被打破，友好关系将不复存在。每个人都希望拥有自己的一片私密空间，朋友之间过于随便，就容易侵入这片禁区，从而引起冲突，造成隔阂。待友不敬，有时或许只是一件小事，却可能已埋下了破坏性的种子。维持朋友亲密关系的最好办法是往来有节，互不干涉.,For the relationship between friends,similar habits and tempers help to make it close
34、r;on the other hand,opposite ones leave distance from each other.No matter how familiar and intimate the friends are,the relationship should be treated carefully and respect should be treasured for friends.Otherwise,the partnership and balance would be broken,as a result,a good relationship would no
35、 longer exist.Everyone has a desire for his own personal space,which could be easily invaded if the attitude between friends is too free.Then conflicts appear,causing barriers.Although it seems a small case of not respecting friends,harmful seeds may be sowed to ruin the relationship.In a word,the b
36、est way to keep positive friendship is associating with temperate manners and without too much interference.,China is a country with a time-honored civilization and a land of ceremony and decorum.Whenever guests visit,it is necessary to make and serve ta to them.Before serving tea,you may ask them f
37、or their preferences as to hat kind of tea they fancy and serve them the tea in the most appropriate teacups.In the course of serving tea,the host should take careful note of how much water is remaining in the cups and in the kettle.,Usually,if the tea is made in a teacup,boiling water should be add
38、ed after half of the cup has been consumed;and thus the cup is kept filled so that the tea retains the same bouquet and remains pleasantly warm throughout the entire course of tea-drinking.Snacks,sweets and other dishes may be served at tea time to complement the fragrance of the tea and to allay ones hunger.,头天上午我们去湖边垂钓。我捻搓着盖在鱼饵罐上昔日的那种湿润苔藓，眼望着蜻蜓时而停歇在杆尖上，时而贴近水面低空盘旋。正是这蜻蜓的光临使我坚信世间万物永葆旧颜，岁月只不过是海市蜃楼般的幻像之物，了然无痕。将划艇停泊在湖边，我们就在艇上钓起鱼来。湖上涟漪依旧，轻轻摩挲着小艇。小艇还是旧模样，绿色的艇身，几根断梁仍在，舱板下面昔日那些残留废弃之物仍然可见：废弃的锈鱼钩、死去的虫饵、还有捕鱼留下的斑斑血迹。我们都静静地盯着杆尖，注视着那来回飞窜的蜻蜓，我试探性地，小心翼翼地把杆尖低垂至水中，希望能把它赶离我的鱼竿，可惜那只蜻蜓飞出两英尺外，在空中稍作停留，又飞回杆尖不远处休息。,
