I write down the first word and stop. 3 "That's not right. But is it OK to point out the mistake? Is that polite, in the first lesson?" Questions jump into my mind. 4 "Why aren't you writing, Wang Han?" I look up at Ms Chen. My eyes meet hers. My mouth feels dry. 6 But then I think about the meaning of the sentence. I put up my hand. "Ms Chen, there's a mistake," I say. "That sentence is from Confucius, not from Mencius." 8 "Well done, Wang Han. In fact, this is my first lesson for all of you. You are now in junior high school. Learning will be more difficult. You need to think more in your learning. Please always remember this." 9 That's really an important lesson! Choose the main idea of the passage.

What is the father's love like according to the writer? Silent Love 1 Along a mountain road, a handsome young man walks fast. An older man with a strict face follows him. This is from my favourite film, Postmen in the Mountains. It's a touching story about the love between father and son. 2 For years, the father served as the postman for this area. He was often absent from home and the son seldom saw him. But now the son is taking over his father's position. The father goes with him on his first day of work. Along the way, they start to see into each other's hearts. 3 For the first time, the son carries his father across a cold river. It brings back the father's memory of carrying the son on his back. Tears quietly run down his face. 4 This film shows a traditional Chinese father. He is happy about his son's growth. But he just hides his care in his heart. He doesn't give hugs or kisses to his son. His love may be silent. But like a mountain, it is always there.

词典∴ 科学家必须具有丰富的想象力 但是,经过分析,可以发现,这里的大前提是不正确的。道理很简单:事实上并不是在任何资料中探索相互关系都需要丰富的想象力的。照作者看来,只有在不仅复杂而且不完整的资料中寻求相互关系,才需要丰富的想象力。 [试译]最后,科学家具有丰富的想象力,因为他们常常必须在不仅复杂而且往往不完整的资料中寻求相互间的关系。 (6) Before these metals in their natural state can be converted into useful forms to be of service to man, they must be separated from the other elements or substances with which they are combined. Chemists, who are well acquainted with the properties of metals, have been able to develop processes for separating metals from substances with which they are combined in nature... [上海交大《英语》(三), 1979 年版, p. 322] [原译]处于天然状态的金属在转换成为人类服务的有用形式之前,必须从和它结合在一起的其他元素或物质中分离出来。化学家们十分熟悉金属的性能。他们已能创造出一些方法,把金属从和它在自然界中结合在一起的物质中分离出来......(科教) 这里引用的两个句子,虽然很长,但从上下文的联系来看,是一气呵成,前后连贯的。译文将定语从句“who...metals”拆译成独立的句子,插在两个句子中间,显得很突兀,不仅破坏了前后两个句子之间的紧密的逻辑联系,而且也使语气无法连贯下去。 [试译]......分离出来。熟悉金属性能的化学家们已经研究出来一些方法,能够...... (7) These legends are useful because they can tell us something about migrations of people who lived long ago, but none could write down what they did. (New Concept English, Book 4, p. 5) [原译]这些故事是有价值的,因为它们能使我们了解到昔日人们迁移的情况,他们生活于很早以前,但他们中间没有人能把他们所做的事情记载下来。(中译本) 译文将限制性定语从句“who...ago”分译出来,使得“他们生活于很早以前”这个句子无论在结构上,还是在意义上都无法与上下文发生联系。 [试译]这些传说很有用,因为他们能告诉我们关于生活在很久以前的人们的迁移情况, 但是没有人能把他们所做的事情记载下来。 (8) In Unit 3 we examined briefly the sequence of procedures which make up the so-called scientific method. we are now going to consider a few of the many ways in which a scientist may fall into error while following these procedures. (A Course in Basic Scientific English, p. 48) [原译]在第三单元,我们扼要考虑了组成所谓科学方法各个步骤的前后顺序。现在我们打算考虑一下产生错误的许多途径中的几个例子,这些错误是科学家按这些步骤进行时可能发生的。(科教) 很容易看出,译文完全破坏了原文中句与句之间的紧密的逻辑联系。这又是不恰当的分译造成的。 [试译]在第三课,我们曾简要地考察了构成科学方法的一系列步骤。现在我们打算探讨一下科学家在按照这些步骤进行研究时可能犯错误的许多方面之中的若干方面。 (9) These linguistic units enable people to refer to every obje

词典in the form/on the form 【问】(1)Write down the answers in the form. (2) Ask three friends their favourite season of the year, and write down their answers in the form below. 请问 in the form 与 on the form 有区别吗? 【答】 form 作“表格”解时, in the form 和 on the form 的用法都是很常见的, 意思没有区别。但与 fill 连用时, 只能用 in the form: You need to fill in this form to get a new passport. 你得填好这份表格才能领取新护照。

词典everybody/everyone...they 【问】(1)Every man and woman should vote for the candidate of their choice. (B's TOEFL) A B C D (2) Every one of the students had to do their own experiment, and then Professor A B C Brown judged the result. (TOEFL) 标准答案规定将 their 改为 his。但是,我在英语著作上却经常遇到 everybody...they (their) 的用法,这究竟是怎么回事呢? 【答】作为各类考试(尤其是托福考试)的考生,应当牢记英语试题编写者们强调正式用法的意图,而坚决地按照他们的要求去做题:everybody/everyone/someone/somebody/anyone/anybody/no one/nobody 的指称代词只可使用 he(his),而不能使用 they(their)。 但是,作为英语的使用者或研究者,则应当懂得多一些。 根据托·派尔斯在《名人英语》这篇文章中的材料,从十七世纪以来,“everyone...they”这个格式用得比“everyone...he”多得多。下面举几个例子: 1. Everybody waits on themselves, and it's practically always supper, not dinner, and nobody dreams of changing their clothes. (E. M. Delafield,) 2. If someone dislikes it I shall never trust their literary judgment again. (1955. 12. 2《旁观者》) 3. Everyone warned you, didn't they? (A Practical English Grammar, p. 97) 实际上, 现代英语学家们也承认了“everybody...they”这类用法的正确性。 4. Everyone thinks they have the answer. (CGEL) 5. Has anybody brought their camera? (CGEL) 6. No one could have blamed themselves for that. (CGEL) 7. \left\{ \begin{array}{l} Every one Each Each one \end{array} \right\} of the students should have \left\{ \begin{array}{l} their his \end{array} \right\} own books. (GCE) 8. When every man had assembled, the master paid them their wages. (A Reference Grammar for Students of English, p. 145) 大家集合齐了之后,雇主给他们发了工资。 9. Each of the women wore what they liked best. (PEU) 这些妇女个个都穿着她们最喜欢 的衣服。 R. Close 认为, 使用 them 和 their 比使用 him 和 his 更为合理。不仅如此, 语言学家们还对使用这个格式的正确性和必要性作了令人信服的说明。例如, P. A. Erads 解释说“everybody 和 nobody 用单数谓语, 而指称代词却常常用复数。这显然是从意义来考虑的......是英语特有的用法”。“不列颠人永远不作奴隶, 连词的奴隶也不做。......每当名词的数和名词所代表的人的数目相矛盾时, 总是意义占上风”。(《现代英语句法问题集》, p. 44) A. Zeiger 说 everyone 在形式上是单数的, 但具有 all 的意义。因此, 像 Everyone came, an
