Unit 9 How to Grow Old 课文翻译

Unit 9 How to Grow Old Bertrand A. Russell 1. In spite of the title, this article will really be on how not to grow old, which, at my time of life, is a much more important subject. My first advice would be, to choose your ancestors carefully. Although both my parents died young, I have done well in this respect as regards my other ancestors. My maternal grandfather, it is true, was cut off in the flower of his youth at the age of sixty-seven, but my other three grandparents all lived to be over eighty. Of remoter ancestors I can only discover one who did not live to a great age, and he died of a disease which is now rare, namely, having his head cut off. A great-grandmother of mine, who was a friend of Gibbon, lived to the age of ninety-two, and to her last day remained a terror to all her descendants. My maternal grandmother, after having nine children who survived, one who died in infancy, and many miscarriages, as soon as she became a widow devoted herself to women’s higher education. She was one of the founders of Girton College, and worked hard at opening the medical profession to women. She used to relate how she met in Italy an elderly gentleman who was looking very sad. She inquired the cause of his melancholy and he said that he had just parted fro m his two grandchildren. “Good gracious,” she exclaimed, “I have seventy-two grandchildren, and if I were sad each time I parted from one of them, I should have a dismal existence!” “Madre snaturale,” he replied. But speaking as one of the seventy-two, I prefer her recipe. After the age of eighty she found she had some difficulty in getting to sleep, so she habitually spent the hours from midnight to 3 a.m. in reading popular science. I do not believe that she ever had time to notice that she was growing old. This, I think, is the proper recipe for remaining young. If you have wide and keen interests and activities in which you can still be effective, you will have no reason to think about the merely statistical fact of the number of years you have already lived, still less of the probable brevity of your future. 2. As regards health, I have nothing useful to say since I have little experience of illness. I eat and drink whatever I like, and sleep when I cannot keep awake. I never do anything whatever on the ground that it is good for health, though in actual fact the things I like doing are mostly wholesome. 3. Psychologically there are two dangers to be guarded against in old age. One of these is undue absorption in the past. It does not do to live in memories, in regrets for the good old days, or in sadness about friends who are dead. One’s thoughts must be directed to

蒙昧中的觉醒教学设计(上课)

专题六西方人文精神的起源与发展 一、教材分析 1.本专题是一个难度大,理论性强又具有重大现实意义的专题。学习时首先要明确人文精神的内涵和价值,应先将本专题四节课的内容综合概括介绍,使学生对人文精神起源、复兴和成熟的三个阶段及其所对应的三次思想解放运动(公元前5世纪中叶产生于希腊的智者运动;公元14世纪至17世纪的文艺复兴;17、18世纪的启蒙运动),有一较完整的认识和较全面的理解。同时,可注意本专题与高中历史必修课第一册第六、第七专题,第二册第五专题和本册第七专题知识内容之间的联系。即要把西方人文精神的发展演变与同时期西方的政治、经济的发展历程结合起来,以辨明思想文化与政治层面和经济层面之间的辩证关系。在学习本专题的时候,要结合现代教育所提出的人文素质的培养要求,加强、加深对人文素质的理解。教师可引导学生反思一下中国历史上的人文精神与西方相比有何特点。 2.本专题是“西方人文精神的起源与发展”,首先应将人文精神和人文主义的含义给学生解释清楚。人文主义是一种思想态度,它认为人及人的价值具有首要意义。人文主义以人为衡量一切事物的标准,它重视人、肯定人,强调个人的价值和人对自然界的优越性。 二、教学对象分析 1.本课属世界古代史部分的内容,学生在初中阶段没有接触过,从知识的衔接上有一定的困难,因此,需要加强对教材背景知识的了解。可让学生复习高中历史必修课第一册第六专题的内容,并根据导学案进行预习。 2.本课的内容理论性很强,高中学生理解起来有一定的困难,课前可指导学生上网查阅相关资料,以增强对人文主义、智者学派、美德即知识等重要概念的理解。 三、教学目标分析 1.知识与能力 (1)了解古希腊智者学派和苏格拉底等人对人的价值的阐述; (2)理解“人是万物的尺度”是古希腊人文精神的基本内涵,提高辩证思考的能力;理解苏格拉底“美德即知识”这一观点 (3)发挥历史借鉴作用,利用人文智慧解决问题或拓宽解决问题的思路; 2.过程与方法 (1)阅读课文所提供的历史材料,学会从材料中获得有效信息。 (2)从图书资料或网上收集整理苏格拉底和我国春秋战国时期的先哲们(孔子等)的道德说教,掌握搜集历史资料的方法,培养语言表达能力。 (3)编演历史剧,加深对历史概念的理解,培养语言表达能力。 (4)将教材中的重要人物、重要概念、需要探究的主要问题分为若干个问题包,将全班同学分成几个学习小组,每个学习小组负责在课前搜集本小组所需解决问题的答案,并与其他学习小组互相交流,培养学生团结、协作、交流精神。 3.情感态度与价值观 (1)理解“人是万物的尺度”这句话的深刻含义,认识它对人类精神觉醒所起的重要作用,认识人文精神是以往人类文明所创造的最为宝贵的精神财富,是衡量社会文明程度的重要指标。 (2)理解人之为人的可贵理性,人要反思、审视自己的思想和行为,以促进社会的良性发展; (3)引导学生感受古希腊先哲勇于否定权威,坚持独立思考,坚持真理的人文精神;引导学生关注现实中人文精神缺失的现状; (4)教育学生追求真、善、美,批判地继承古典文化,树立尊重别人,善待生命,平等与人相处的价值观。 教学重点和难点: 重点:1.古希腊“智者”运动产生的历史背景,代表人物及其思想主张; 2.苏格拉底的思想主张。 难点:1.对普罗塔戈拉“人是万物尺度”所孕育的人文精神的内涵的分析和理解;

Unit 1 A Class Act 课文翻译

Unit 1 A CLASS ACT Florence Cartlidge 1. Growing up in bomb-blitzed Manchester during the Second World War meant times were tough, money was short, anxiety was rife and the pawnshop was a familiar destination for many families, including mine. 2. Yet I could not have asked for more enterprising and optimistic parents. They held our family together with hard work, dignity and bucketloads of cheer. My sturdy and ingenious father could turn his hand to almost anything and was never short of carpentry and handyman work. He even participated in the odd bout of backstreet boxing to make ends meet. For her part, our mum was thrifty and meticulously clean, and her five children were always sent to school well fed, very clean, and attired spotlessly, despite the hard conditions. 3. The trouble was, although my clothes were ironed to a knife-edge, and shoes polished to a gleam, not every item was standard school uniform issue. While Mum had scrimped and saved to obtain most of the gear, I still didn’t have the pres cribed blue blazer and hatband. 4. Because of the war, rationing was in place and most schools had relaxed their attitude towards proper uniforms, knowing how hard it was to obtain clothes. Nevertheless, the girls’ school I attended made it strict policy that each of its students was properly attired, and the deputy headmistress who ran the daily assembly made it her mission to teach me a lesson. 5. Despite my attempts at explaining why I couldn’t comply, and despite the fact that I was making slow progress towards the full uniform, every day I would be pulled out of line and made to stand on the stage as a shining example of what not to wear to school. 6. Every day I would battle back tears as I stood in front of my peers, embarrassed and, most often, alone. My punishment also extended to being barred from the gym team or to not taking part in the weekly ballroom dancing classes, which I adored. I desperately

Unit7TheChaser练习的答案解析综合教程三

Unit 7 The Chaser Key to the Exercises Text comprehension I. Decide which of the following is likely to happen after the story. C II. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false. 1. F (Refer to Paragraph 5. The old man says that his stock in trade is not very large, but it is varied and has extraordinary effects.) 2. F (Refer to Paragraphs 11 and 1 3. The price of a glove-cleaner, as he calls it, is very high, five thousand dollars for a teaspoonful, but the love potion is very cheap.) 3. F (Refer to Paragraph 19. The old man claims that the effects of love potions are permanent.) 4. T (Refer to Paragraphs 24 and 28. Austen says that Diana is fond of parties and, although she is everything to him already, she does not care about his love at all. That is why he decides to go to the old man for the love potion and whenever the old man mentions the magic of his potion, he can't help "crying." From that, we can see the man loves the girl very much.) 5. F (The old man sells the love potions almost for nothing because by doing so his customers will come back for a much dearer commodity, the glove-cleaner, to help them out. It is the "death potion" that the old man makes most of his profits from, and intends to sell to his customers.) III. Answer the following questions. 1. What the old man means is that a young man who falls in love one-sidedly is seldom rich enough to win a girl's heart. His words imply that money is one of the crucial factors for love. If a man is not rich, he can rarely expect to be loved by a girl. 2. Refer to Paragraphs 19 to 37. The love potion has powerful, everlasting effects. To begin with, it may produce sexual desire in the person who takes it. And on the spiritual side, it can replace indifference with devotion and scorn with adoration. It will make a gay girl want nothing but solitude and her lover's company. She will feel jealous of him when her lover is with other girls; she will want to be everything to him. She will be only interested in her lover and take every concern of him. Even if he slips a bit, she will forgive him though terribly hurt. In a word, she will fall in love with him if she drinks the love potion. 3. Refer to Paragraphs 39 to 43. It is an irony, by which the author seems to imply that love is far from being precious or desirable. It is easy for a man to fall in love, yet it is hard
