ANNE’S BEST FRIEND
Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you
afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through? Anne Frank wanted
the first kind, so she made her best friend.
你是不是想有一位無話不談能推心置腹的朋友呢?或者你是不是擔心你的朋友會嘲笑你,會不理解你目前的困境呢?安
妮?弗蘭克想要的是第一種類型的朋友,于是她就把日記當成了她最好的朋友。
Anne lived in Amsterdam in Netherlands during Would WarⅡ.Her family was Jewish so they had to hide or
they would be caught by the German Nazi .She and her family hid away for nearly twenty-five months before they
were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said ,”I don’t want to set down
a series of facts in a diary as most people do ,but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call
my friend Kitty .”Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942.
安妮在第二次世界大戰期間住在荷蘭的阿姆斯特丹。她一家人都是猶太人,所以他們不得不躲藏起來,否則他們就會被
德國納粹抓去。她和她的家人躲藏了兩年之后才被發現。在這段時間里,她唯一的忠實朋友就是她的日記了。她說,“我不
愿像大多數人那樣在日記中記流水賬。我要把這本日記當作我的朋友,我要把我這個朋友稱作基蒂”。安妮自從 1942年 7月
起就躲藏在那兒了,現在,來看看她的心情吧。

Dear Kitty,
I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about
everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the
birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That’s changed since I was here.
我不知道這是不是因為我長久無法出門的緣故,我變得對一切與大自然有關的事物都無比狂熱。我記得非常清楚,以前,
湛藍的天空、鳥兒的歌唱、月光和鮮花,從未令我心迷神往過。自從我來到這里,這一切都變了。
…For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order
to have a good look at the moon by myself. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare open a window.
Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at dusk when the window was open. I didn’t go downstairs
until the window had to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in
their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face….
……比方說,有天晚上天氣很暖和,我熬到 11點半故意不睡覺,為的是獨自好好看看月亮。但是因為月光太亮了,我不
敢打開窗戶。還有一次,就在五個月以前的一個晚上,我碰巧在樓上,窗戶是開著的。我一直等到非關窗不可的時候才下樓
去。漆黑的夜晚,風吹雨打,雷電交加,我全然被這種力量鎮住了。這是我一年半以來第一次目睹夜晚……
…Sadly…I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very dusty windows. it’s
no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced.
……令人傷心的是……我只能透過臟兮兮的窗簾觀看大自然,窗簾懸掛在沾滿灰塵的窗前,但觀看這些已經不再是樂趣,
因為大自然是你必須親身體驗的。
Your,
Anne
Friday, 10 July 1942
When we arrived at Prinsengracht, we went quickly upstairs and the hiding place. We closed the door behind
us and we were alone. Margot had come faster on her bicycle and already waiting for us. All the rooms were full
of boxes. They lay on the floor and the beds. The little room was filled with bedclothes. We had to start clearing
up at once, if we wished to sleep in comfortable beds that night. Mummy and Margot were not able to help. They
were tired and lay down on their beds. But Daddy and I, the two “helper” of the family, started at once.
The whole day we unpacked the boxes, filled the cupboards and tidied, until we were extremely tired. We
did sleep in clean beds that night. We hadn’t had any warm food to eat all day, but we didn’t care. Mummy and
Margot were too tired and worried to eat, and Daddy and I were too busy.
FRIENDSHIP IN HAWAII
Every culture has its own ways to show friendship. On the islands of Hawaii, friendship is part of the “aloha
spirit”.InthelanguageoftheHawaiianswhofirstsettledtheislandslongago,alohahadaveryspecialmeaning.
That is “to be with happiness”.
Hawaiians believe that once somebody loves the land, they are ready to love their people or community.
This is the second most import sign of friendship. It is called lokahi in Hawaiian language, which means “oneness
with all people”. To enjoy the land you should not be selfish. The land is for everyone who lives on it. Today
many different people call Hawaii their home. Indeed, Hawaii is a place where people make one big community from
many smaller communities. Each person gives kokua (help) to other people so that all fell stronger. It’s believed
that the islands can be a paradise when the people live in peace. People are told that their actions should be
as gentle as the wind that blows from the sea. When problems happen, people are asked to solve them with
understanding. So when people of Hawaii talk about ohana (family), they are really talking about all those who
live on the islands.
Living in peace, Hawaiians have developed a third sign of friendship. This personal friendship is shown
by giving leis to one another. The lie, a string of flowers, is put over a friend’s neck. Then the friend is
given a kiss on cheek. Visitors to the islands are also given lies. When they hear aloha, visitors begin to feel
at home. Aloha also means “goodbye”, so visitors will hear it again when they leave. It can also mean “our
hearts singing together”. Perhaps this is how most visitors will remember their new friendship.
Unit 2
THE ROAD TO MODERN ENGLISH
At the end of the 16 century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived
th
in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world and
because of that, English begin to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their
first, second or a foreign language than ever before.
16世紀末期大約有 5百萬到 7百萬人說英語,幾乎所有這些人都生活在英國。后來,在 17世紀英國人開始航海征服了
世界其它地區。于是,許多別的國家開始說英語了。如今說英語的人比以往任何時候都多,他們有的是作為第一語言來說,
有的是作為第二語言或外語。
Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don"t speak the same kind of English. Look
at this kind of example:
以英語作為母語的人,即使他們所講的語言不盡相同,也可以互相交流。請看以下例子:
British Betty: Would you like to see my flat?
英國人貝蒂:“請到我的公寓(flat)里來看看,好嗎?”
American Amy: Yes. I’d like to come up to your apartment.
美國人艾米:“好的。我很樂意到你的公寓(apartment)去。
So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and
communicatewitheachother.AtfirsttheEnglishspokeninEnglandbetweenaboutAD450and1150wasverydifferent
the English spoken today. It was based more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between
about AD800 to 1150, English became less like germen because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later
French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600’s
Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved
to American. Later in the 18 century some British people were taken to Australia too. English began to be spoken
th
in both countries.
那么,英語在一段時間里為什么會起變化呢?事實上,當不同文化互相交流滲透時,所有的語言都會有所發展,有所變
化。首先,在公元 450年到 1150年間,人們所說的英語跟今天所說的英語就很不一樣。當時的英語更多地是以德語為基礎的,
而現代英語不是。然后,漸漸地,大約在公元 800年到 1150年期間,英語不那么像德語了。因為那時的英國的統治者起初講
丹麥語后來講法語。這些新的定居者大大豐富了英語語言,特別是在詞匯方面。所以到 17 世紀,莎士比亞所用的詞匯量比
以前任何時期都大。在 1620年,一些英國人搬遷到美洲定居。后來,到了 19世紀,有些英國人也被送往澳大利亞,兩個國
家的人都開始說英語了。
Finallybythe19 centurythelanguagewassettled.AtthattimetwobigchangesinEnglishspellinghappened:
th
first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English
Language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling.
最后,到 20世紀,英語才真正定形。那時,英語在拼寫上發生了兩大變化:首先,塞繆爾?約翰遜編寫了詞典,后來,諾厄
?韋伯斯特編纂了《美國英語詞典》,后者體現了美國英語拼寫的不同特色。
English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large
number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. during that time English became
the language for government and education. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in
Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly. In fact,
China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time
will tell.
現在,英語在南亞也被當作外語或第二語言來說。比如說,印度擁有眾多講英語很流利的人,這是因為英國于 1765年到 1947
年統治過印度。在那期間,英語成了官方語言和教育用語。在新加坡、馬來西亞和非洲其它國家,比如南非,人們也說英語。
目前在中國學習英語的人數正在迅速增長。事實上,中國可能擁有世界上最多的英語學習者。中國英語會發展出自己的特色
嗎?這只能由時間來回答了。
STANDARD ENGLISH AND DIALECTS
What is standard English? Is it spoken in Britain, the US, Canada, Australia, India and New Zealand? Believe
it or not, there is no such thing as standard English. Many people believe the English spoken on TV and the radio
is standard English. This is because in the early days of radio, those who reported the news were expected to
speak excellent English. However, on TV and the radio you will hear differences in the way people speak.
什么是標準英語?是在英國、美國、加拿大、澳大利亞、印度、新西蘭所說的英語嗎?信不信由你,(世界上)沒有什么標
準英語。許多人認為,電視和收音機里所說的就是標準英語,這是因為在早期的電臺節目里,人們期望新聞播音員所說的英
語是最好的英語。然而,在電視和收音機里,你也會聽出人們在說話時的差異。
When people use words and expressions different from the “standard language”, it is called a dialect.
American English has many dialects, especially the Midwestern, southern, African American and Spanish dialects.
Even in some parts of the USA, two people from neighbouring towns speak a little differently. American English
has so many dialects because people have come from all over the world.
當人們用不同于“標準語言”的詞語時,那就叫做方言。美國英語有許多方言,特別是中西部和南部地區的方言,以及黑
人和西班牙人的方言。在美國有些地區,即使是相鄰城鎮的兩個人所說的語言都可能稍有不同。美國英語之所以有這么多的
方言是因為美國人是來自世界各地的緣故。
Geography also plays a part in making dialects. Some people who live in the mountains of the eastern USA
speak with an older kind of English dialect. When Americans moved from one place to another, they took their
dialects with them. So people from the mountains in the southeastern USA speak with almost the same dialects
as people in the northwestern USA. The USA is a large country in which many different dialects are spoken. Although
many Americans move a lot, they still recognize and understand each other’s dialects.
地理位置對方言的產生也有影響。住在美國東部山區的一些人說著比較古老的英語方言。當美國人從一個地方搬到另一個地
方時,他們也就把他們的方言隨著帶去了。因此,美國東南部山區的人同美國西北部的人所說的方言就幾乎相同。美國是一
個使用多種方言的大國。雖然許多美國人經常搬遷,但是他們仍然能夠辨別、理解彼此的方言。
THE OXFORD ENGLISH DICTIONARY
You may think that English dictionaries have been used for many, many centuries. The spelling of English
has always been a problem but it was more of a problem in the days before a dictionary. Then people could spell
word in different ways which you might find it interesting. But it made reading English much more difficult.
So dictionaries were invented to encourage everybody to spell the same. In fact, an English dictionary like the
kind you use today wasn’t made until the time of the late Qing Dynasty. There men did most of the important
early work on dictionaries: Samuel Johnson, Noah Webster, and James Murray. These men spent nearly all of their
lives trying to collect words for their dictionaries. For them, it wasn’t only a job; it was a wonderful journey
of discovery. The largest dictionary in the world is the Oxford English Dictionary, or OED for short. The idea
for this dictionary came from an important meeting in Britain in 1857. Twenty-two years later, Oxford University
asked James Murray to be the editor of its new dictionary.
Murray had never been to college. At the age of fourteen, he left his village school in Scotland and taught
himself while working in a bank. Later he became a great teacher. After Oxford gave him the job, Murray had a
place built in the garden behind his house to do his work. Part of it was one meter underground. In winter it
felt like a barn, he had to wear a heavy coat and put his feet in a box to keep warm. Every morning, Murray got
out of bed at five o’clock and worked several hours before breakfast. Often he would work by the candle light
into the evening. Murray hoped to finish the new dictionary in ten years. But after five years, he was still
adding words for the letter A! then others went to work with Murray, including his two daughters. He worked on
the dictionary until he was very old. Forty-four years later, in1928, other editors finished it. It included
more than 15,000 pages in twelve books. And you thought your dictionary was big!
Unit 3
JOURNEY DOWN THE MEKONG
PART 1 THE DREAM AND THE PLAN
My name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great
bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year,
she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. They are Dai and grew up in western
Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other
countries. Wang Wei soon got them interested in cycling too. After graduating from college.we finally got the
chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, "Where are we going?" It was my sister who first had the idea
to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schedule
for the trip.
我的名字叫王坤。從高中起,我姐姐王薇和我就一直夢想作一次偉大的自行車旅行。兩年前,她買了一輛昂貴的山地自行車,
然后還說服我買了一輛(山地車)。去年她去看望了我們的表兄弟——在昆明讀大學的刀衛和宇航。他們是傣族人,在云南
省西部靠近瀾滄江的地方長大,湄公河在中國境內的這一段叫瀾滄江,在其他國家(境內)叫湄公河。很快,王薇使表兄弟
也對騎車旅游產生了興趣。大學畢業以后,我們終于有了機會騎自行車旅行。我問我姐姐:“我們要去哪兒?”首先想到要
沿湄公河從源頭到終點騎車旅游的是我的姐姐。現在她正在為我們的旅行制定計劃。
I am fond of my sister but she has one serious shortcoming. She can be really stubborn. Although she didn"t
know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize the trip properly. Now, I know that the
proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, "When are we leaving and when are we coming back?" I asked her
whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course, she hadn"t; my sister doesn"t care about details. So I told her
that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined look—the kind that said she would
not change her mind. When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 metres, she
seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold, she
said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can
change it. Finally, I had to give in.
我很喜歡我姐姐,但是她有一個很嚴重的缺點。她有時確實很固執。盡管她對去某些地方的最佳路線并不清楚,她卻堅持要
自己把這次旅游安排得盡善盡美。于是,我就知道這個盡善盡美的方式總是她的方式。我不停地問她,“我們什么時候出發?
什么時候回來?”我還問她是否看過地圖。當然她并沒有看過——我的姐姐是不會考慮細節的。于是,我告訴她,湄公河的
源頭在青海省。她給了我一個堅定的眼神——這種眼神表明她是不會改變主意的。我說,我們的旅行將從 5, 000多米的高地
出發,這時她似乎顯得很興奮。當我告訴她那里空氣稀薄,呼吸困難,而且天氣很冷時,她卻說這將是一次有趣的經歷。我
非常了解我的姐姐,她一旦下了決心,什么也不能使她改變。最后,我只好讓步了。
Several months before our trip,Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas with good maps
that showed details of world geography. From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier
on a Tibetan mountain. At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold. Then it begins to move quickly.
It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, travelling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the
river becomes a waterfall and enters wide valleys. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is
inChina.AfteritleavesChinaandthehighaltitude,theMekongbecomeswide,brownandwarm.AsitentersSoutheast
Asia, its pace slows. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. At
last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.
在我們旅行前的幾個月,王薇和我去了圖書館。我們找到一本大型地圖冊,里面有一些世界地理的明細圖。我們從圖上可以
看到,湄公河發源于西藏一座山上的冰川。起初,江面很小,河水清澈而冷冽,然后它開始快速流動。它穿過深谷時就變成
了急流,流經云南西部。有時,這條江形成瀑布,進入寬闊的峽谷。我們倆驚奇地發現這條河有一半是在中國境內。當流出
中國,流出高地之后,湄公河就變寬了,變暖了,河水也變成了黃褐色。而當它進入東南亞以后,流速減緩,河水蜿蜒緩慢
地穿過低谷,流向生長稻谷的平原。最后,湄公河三角洲的各支流流入中國南海。
PART2 A NIGHT IN THE MOUNTAINS
Although it was autumn,the snow was already beginning to fall in Tibet.Our legs were so heavy and cold that
they felt like blocks of ice.Have you ever seen snowmen ride bicycles?That’s what we looked like! Along the
way children dressed in long wool coats stopped to look at us.In the late afternoon we found it was so cold
that our water bottles froze..However,the lakes shonelike glass in the setting sun and looked wonderful.Wangwei
rode in front of me as usual.She is very reliable and I knew I didn’t need to encourage her. To climb the mountains
was hard work but as we looked around us, we were surprised by the view. We seemed to be able to see for miles.
At one point we were so high that we found ourselves cycling through clouds. Then we began going down the hills.
It was great fun especially as it gradually became much warmer. In the valleys colourful butterflies flew around
us and we saw many yaks and sheep eating green grass. At this point we had to change our caps, coats,gloves and
trousers for T-shirts and shorts.
雖然是秋天,但是西藏已經開始下雪了。我們的腿又沉又冷,感覺就像大冰塊。你看到過雪人騎自行車嗎?我們看上去就像
那樣。一路上,一些身著羊毛大衣的孩子們停下來看著我們。下午晚些時候,我們發現由于天冷我們的水壺都凍上了。然而,
湖水在落日的余暉下閃亮如鏡,景色迷人。像往常一樣,王薇在我的前面,她很可靠,我知道我用不著給她鼓勁兒。上山很
艱難,但是當我們環顧四周,(眼前的)景色讓我們感到驚奇,我們似乎能看到幾百里以外的地方。在某個時刻,我們發現
自己置身高處,彷佛騎車穿越云層。然后我們開始下山,這非常有趣,特別是天氣逐漸變得暖和多了。在山谷里,五彩斑斕
的蝴蝶翩翩飛舞在我們身旁,我們還看到牦牛和羊群在吃草。這時,我們不得不把帽子、外衣、手套和長褲脫掉,換成 T恤
衫和短褲。
In the early evening we always stop to make camp.We put up our tent and then we eat. After supper Wang Wei
put her head down on her pillow and went to sleep but I stayed awake. At midnight the sky became clearer and
the stars grew brighter. It was so quiet. There was almost no wind—only the flames of our fire for company.
As I lay beneath the stars I thought about how far we had already travelled.
一到傍晚,我們通常就停下來宿營,(于是),我們先把帳篷支起來,然后吃飯。晚飯后,王薇把頭放在枕頭上就睡覺了,而
我卻醒著。半夜里,天空變得清朗了,星星更亮了。(夜晚)非常安靜——幾乎沒有風,只有篝火的火焰和我們做伴。當我
躺在星空下,我想著我們已經走了多遠。
We will reach Dali in Yunnan Province soon, where our cousins Dao Wei and Yu Hang will join us. We can hardly
wait to see them!
我們很快就要到達云南的大理。在那里,我們的表兄弟刀衛和宇航將加入我們的行列。我們迫不及待地想要見到他們!
PART 6 THE END OF OUR JOUNEY
Cambodia was in many ways similar to Laos, although it has twice the population. At another inn, we talked
with a teacher who told us that half of the people in her country couldn’t read or write. Her village couldn’t
even afford to build a school, so she had to teach outside under a large tent. When we said goodbye, we all felt
very lucky to have studied in college.Back on the road, we passed between many hills and forests. Then we came
to the plains and entered Phnom Penh,the capital of Cambodia. In many ways it looked like Vientiane and Ho Chi
Minh City; it also had wide streets with trees in rows and old French houses.Unlike Vientiane, ships could travel
the Mekong River here.In the center of the city we visited the palace and a beautiful white elephant. It can
only be seen outside the palace on special days. We ate an early supper and went to see a great temple with floors
made of sliver.
The next morning our group slept late. We were very tired from the long bike ride the day before. Cycling
in the hills had been diffcuilt.Now our couins had the chance to make jokes about Wangwei and me. Perhaps,they
said,they were the strong ones!We had lunch at a nice outdoor cafe,then rode out of the city.
Two days later we crossed the border into Vietnam. We began to see many more people,but I wasn’t surprised .I

請大家想一想,英語是誰發明的?英國人唄!英國人認不認識漢語?不認識!那么英國人在學英語單詞的時候需不需要記住單詞的漢語意思?不需要,英國人的英語課本里根本就沒有漢字,何談記住單詞的漢語意思?那么既然英國人學英語不需要記住(甚至根本就見不到)單詞的漢語意思,那么中國人學英語為什么要去記住單詞的漢語意思呢?這種做法大家不覺得奇怪嗎? 然而由于中國人學英語時都在背單詞的漢語意思,因此大家反而覺不出“背漢字”有什么奇怪的了。其實仔細想一想,這個行為真的很奇怪,奇怪的根源不在于行為本身,而在于中國人普遍不會直接識別英語單詞的意思,因而只好靠漢語符號來機械地幫助記憶英語單詞的意思,這樣去學英語不僅多此一舉,而且必然會陷入苦海無邊的符號記憶災難中。 其實英語單詞和漢字一樣,存在著很多的“偏旁部首”,知道了偏旁部首你就可以根據它們直接來猜測單詞的意思,雖不說百分之百猜準,但起碼可以猜測個大概,至少在別人告訴過你單詞的意思后你可以恍然大悟地領會它,這樣就可以大大增強你對英語單詞“見字識意”的能力,做到真正認識一個單詞,而把它的漢語意思僅做為一般參考。 舉幾個例子來說吧: 比如單詞representative,請別急著告訴我你認識這個單詞,其實你不見得“認識”這個單詞,你僅是憑著你的記憶力記住了這串英語字母和兩個漢字符號“代表”之間的對應關系,這樣去學英語你會多費勁?下面我來告訴你這個單詞為什么是“代表”的意思。re在英語里是一個偏旁部首,它是“回來”的意思;pre也是一個偏旁部首,是“向前”的意思;sent也是一個偏旁部首,是“發出去、派出去”的意思;a僅是偏旁部首之間的一個“連接件”,沒了它兩個輔音字母t就要連在一起了,發音會分不開,會費勁,因此用一個元音字母a隔開一下;tive也是一個偏旁部首,是“人”的意思。那么這幾個偏旁部首連在一起是什么意思呢?re-pre-sent-a-tive,就是“回來-向前-派出去-的人”,即“回來征求大家的意見后又被派出去替大家講話的人”,這不就是“代表”的意思嗎!這么去認識一個單詞才是真正“認識”了這個單詞,把它認識到了骨子里。 再舉一個例子吧:psychology。 psy=sci,是一個偏旁部首,是“知道”的意思;cho是一個偏旁部首,是“心”的意思;lo是一個偏旁部首,是“說”的意思;gy是一個偏旁部首,是“學”的意思,logy合起來是“學說”的意思。因此psy-cho-logy連起來就是“知道心的學說”,因此就是“心理學”的意思。 依此類推,不多舉例了,我要表達的觀點已經清楚了,那就是,不要去死記硬背單詞的漢語意思,而要用識別“偏旁部首”的方法去真正認識一個單詞,真正認識了單詞后,你會發現單詞表里的漢語翻譯原來其實很勉強,有時甚至根本翻譯不出來,因為漢語和英語是兩種不同的文字體系,兩者在文字上本來就不是一一對應的,只背英語單詞的漢字意思是不能真正認識這個單詞的,會造成很多的后續學習困難,會造成你一輩子看英語單詞如霧里看花,永遠有退不掉的陌生感。 那么接下來的問題是,英語里有多少個“偏旁部首”,怎樣知道和學會它們? 回答這個問題時我才發現中國人對英語偏旁部首陌生的兩個主要原因,一是這些重要內容不在學校的英語教材當中,大家在課堂上學不到(這是目前學校英語教材急需彌補的缺陷);二是少數書店里銷售的有關這方面內容的書過分復雜化,動轍幾百上千頁,內容苦澀龐大,影響了這些常識的普及,使得本來是常識的東西不常識。其實英語里偏旁部首的學名叫“字根”,常用的也就二百多個,它們就像26個字母一樣普通而重要,就像漢語里的偏旁部首那樣普通而重要,它們是學英語第一課里就應該學習的重要內容,學英語者應及早地掌握這些重要的常識,及早地擺脫死記硬背的蠻干狀態,及早地進入科學、高效的識字狀態。

這些叫詞根詞綴。拉丁語系所有的語言以及衍生語言都是由前綴+詞根+曲折變化、復合、派生+后綴組成的。在國外學語言學,音位學,語法的都要學習詞語構成。 國內官方機構的英語教學說實話很不成熟。教學方式很害人。根本不科學,不專業,不系統。很多寫教材的人自己就不專業,背了兩篇課文記了基本字典就覺出來教學了。語法全部掰碎了來講,根本不系統。而且語言這個東西是習慣性的,是一步一步積累的,國內全部講究速成,速記,速考,速忘。搞不懂的就死背。完全沒有引入系統的語言學,語法,音位學,語音學。學徒怎么可能體會到語言構成形成的奧妙。 國內的外語都是拿來應考的,不是拿來使用的。大陸在外語研究的水平上遠遠不及港臺,日韓。到現在我們連一本專門的解釋外部語言歷史,發展,結構的譯本都沒有,可是在國外到處都是,裝備到高中圖書館。倒不是因為大陸人少,出國的人少,是因為機制和動機就有毛病。

Festivals and celebrations
Festivals and celebrations of all kinds have been held everywhere since ancient times.Most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of cold weather,planting in spring and harvest in autumn.Sometimes celebrate would be held after hunters had caught animals.At that time people would starve if food was difficult to find,especially during the cold winter months.Today’s festivals have many origins ,some religious,some seasonal, and some for special people or events.
Festivals of the Dead
Some festivals are held to honour the dead or to satisfy the ancestors,who might return either to help or to do harm.For the Japanese festival.Obon,people should go to clean graves and light incense in memory of their ancestors.They also light lamps and play music because they think that this will lead the ancestors back to earth.In Mexico,people celebrate the Day of the Dead in early November.On this important feast day,people eat food in the shape of skulls and cakes with”bones”on them.They offer food,flowers and gifts to the dead.The Western holiday Halloween also had its origin in old beliefs about the return of the spirits of dead people. It is now a children’s festival,when they can dress up and to to their neighbours’ homes to ask for sweets.If the neighbours do not give any sweets,the children might play a trick on them.
Festivals to Honour People
Festivals can also be held to honour famous people .The Dragon Boat Festival in China honours the famous ancient poet, Qu Yuan.In the USA Columbus Day is in memory of the arrival of Christopher Columbus in New World.India has a national festival on October 2 to honour Mohandas Gandhi,the leader who helped gain India’s independence from Britain.
Harvest Festivals
Harvest and Thanksgiving festivals can be very happy events.People are grateful because their food is gathered for the winter and the agricultural work is over.In European countries,people will usually decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit,and will get together to have meals.Some people might win awards for their farm produce,like the biggest watermelon or the most handsome rooster.China and Japan have mid-autumn festivals,when people admire the moon and in China,enjoy mooncakes.
Spring Festivals
The most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and to the coming of spring.At the Spring Festival in China,people eat dumplings,fish and meat and may give children lucky money in red paper.There are dragon dances and carnivals,and families celebrate the Lunar New Year together.Some Western countries have very exciting carnivals,which take place forty days before Easter,usually in February.These carnivals might include parades,dancing in the streets day and night,loud music and colourful clothing of all kinds.Easter is an important religious and social festival for Christians around the world.It celebrates the return of Jesus from the dead and the coming of spring and new life.Japan’s Cherry Blossom Festival happens a little later.The country, covered with cherry tree flowers, looks as thought it is covered with pink snow.
People love to get together to eat , drink and have fun with each other.Festivals let us enjoy life,be proud of our customs and forget our work for a little while

ANNE’S BEST FRIEND
Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through? Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her diary her best friend.
安妮最好的朋友
你想不想有一位無話不談能推心置腹的朋友?或者你會不會擔心你的朋友會嘲笑你,會不理解你目前的困境呢?安妮?弗蘭克想要的是第一種類型的朋友,所以她把的日記視為自己最好的朋友。
Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands during World War II. Her family was Jewish so the had to hide or they would be caught by the German Nazis. She and her family hide away for two years before they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said, “I don’t want to set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do, but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty.” Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942.
在第二次世界大戰期間,安妮住在荷蘭的阿姆斯特丹。她一家人都是猶太人,所以他們不得不躲藏起來,否則就會被德國的納粹分子抓去。她和她的家人躲藏了25個月之后才被發現。在那段時期,她的日記成了她唯一忠實的朋友。她說:“我不愿像大多數人那樣在日記中記流水賬。我要把我的日記當作自己的朋友,我把我的這個朋友叫做基蒂。”現在,來看看安妮自1942年7月起躲進藏身處后的那種心情吧。

Dear kitty,
I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That’s changed since I was here.
…For example, when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven one evening in order to have a good look at the moon for once by myself. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare open a window. Another time some months ago, I happened to be upstairs one evening when the window was open. I didn’t go downstairs until the window had to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face…
…Sadly…I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very dusty windows. It’s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced.
Yours,
Anne

親愛的基蒂:
我不知道這是不是因為我太久無法出門的緣故,我變得對一切與大自然有關的事物都無比狂熱。我記得非常清楚,以前,湛藍的天空、鳥兒的歌唱、月光和鮮花,從未令我心迷神往過。自從我來到這里之后,這一切都變了。
……比如說,有一天晚上天氣很暖和,我故意熬到晚上11點半都不睡覺,為的就是能獨自好好地看看月亮。但是因為月光太亮了,我都不敢打開窗戶。還有一次,就在五個月以前的一個晚上,我碰巧在樓上,窗戶是開著的,我一直呆到非關窗不可的時候才下樓去。漆黑的雨夜,刮著大風,電閃雷鳴,烏云滾滾,我完全被這種景象鎮住了。這是我一年半以來第一次親眼目睹的夜晚……
……不幸的是……我只能透過那滿是灰塵的窗簾下那臟兮兮的窗戶看看大自然。只能隔著窗戶看那大自然實在沒意思,因為大自然是需要真正體驗的東西。

1、HOW MARX LEARNED FOREIGN LANGUAGES
Karl Marx was born in Germany, and German was his native language. When he was still a young man, he was forced to leave his homeland for political reasons. He stayed in Belgium for a few years; then he went to France. Before long he had to move on again. In 1849, he went to England and made London the base for his revolutionary work.
Marx had learned some French and English at school. When he got to England, he found that his English was too limited. He started working hard to improve it. He made such rapid progress that before long he began to write articles in English for an American newspaper. In fact, his English in one of these articles was so good that Engels wrote him a letter and praised him for it. Marx wrote back to say that Engels" praise had greatly encouraged him. However, he went on to explain that he was not too sure about two things--the grammar and some of the idioms.
These letters were written in 1853. In the years that followed, Marx kept on studying English and using it. When he wrote one of his great works, The Civil War in France, he had mastered the language so well that he was bale to write the book in English.
In the 1870"s, when Marx was already in his fifties, he found it important to study the situation in Russia, so he began to learn Russian. At the end of six months he had learned enough to read articles and reports in Russian. In one of his books, Marx gave some advice on how to learn a foreign language. He said when a person is learning a foreign language; he must not always be translating everything into his own language. If he does this, it shows he has not mastered it. He must be able to use the foreign language, forgetting all about his own. If he can not do this, he has not really grasped the spirit of the foreign language and can not use it freely.
2、AT HOME IN THE FUTURE
A medical examination without a doctor or nurse in the room? Doing shopping at home? Borrowing books from the library without leaving your home?
These ideas may seem strange to you. But scientists are working hard to turn them into realities.
Let us suppose we can visit a home at the end of this century. We will visit a boy named Charlie Green. He is not feeling well this morning. His mother, Mrs Green, wants the doctor to see him. That is, she wants the doctor to listen to him. She brings a set of wires to Charlie"s room. These wires are called sensors. She places one sensor in his mouth and one on his chest. She puts another one around his wrist and one on his forehead. Then she plugs the sensors into a wall outlet. She says the code "TCP". This means "telephone call placed." A little light flashes on the wall. The Green"s wireless telephone is ready for a call.
Mrs Green says "2478", the doctor"s telephone number. From a speaker on the wall comes the doctor"s voice: "Good morning."

1、HOW MARX LEARNED FOREIGN LANGUAGES
Karl Marx was born in Germany, and German was his native language. When he was still a young man, he was forced to leave his homeland for political reasons. He stayed in Belgium for a few years; then he went to France. Before long he had to move on again. In 1849, he went to England and made London the base for his revolutionary work.
Marx had learned some French and English at school. When he got to England, he found that his English was too limited. He started working hard to improve it. He made such rapid progress that before long he began to write articles in English for an American newspaper. In fact, his English in one of these articles was so good that Engels wrote him a letter and praised him for it. Marx wrote back to say that Engels" praise had greatly encouraged him. However, he went on to explain that he was not too sure about two things--the grammar and some of the idioms.
These letters were written in 1853. In the years that followed, Marx kept on studying English and using it. When he wrote one of his great works, The Civil War in France, he had mastered the language so well that he was bale to write the book in English.
