And so it is that Oxford is in a sort a magnetic pole for England; a pole not, perhaps, of
intellectual energy, or strenuous liberalism, or clamorous aims, or political ideas; few,
perhaps, of the sturdy forces that make England potently great, centre there.
并且牛津大学是英国的中心；虽然它可能不是智慧力量、伟大自由、宏伟目标、政治理想的中心，但是它却可能汇集了让英国变强的坚实力量。
This essay is definitely categorized as a piece of literature in the full and deep sense, for
with its unique beauty and charm it succeeds in cultivating and fostering special feelings and
attitudes towards Oxford among the readers. It is believed that the author dotes on Oxford. The intense pleasure he felt in the super beauty and immense charm of Oxford was too nice and too luxurious to keep just to himself. It was his wish that the readers might share what he felt and would be moved to exclaim, “Oh, what a wonderful place! How I wish I could visit it and see it with my own eyes in no time!“
不论从广义上还是从狭义上来说，本文明显是一篇好文章，其中文采飞扬地向读者表达了牛津大学培育莘莘学子的魅力。人们认为作者对牛津大学过于宠爱了。作者描述的的牛精大学的美丽风光和无限魅力实在是过于浓厚，无法独享。作者希望读者可以感同身受地感受牛精大学的美。“啊，多么美的地方啊！我已经迫不及待去亲眼看看了！”
There are several elements that make it highly literary. The first is the author’s effort to
create a general impression of Oxford upon the readers, rather than present accurate detailed
facts, a device most favored by impressionistic artists. Paragraph 2 serves as a good example,
and such a metaphor as “feeling as a poor man might who has pinched all life, and made the
. most of single coins, and who is brought into the presence of a heap of piled-up gold, and told
that it is all his own“ enchants the readers with a sense of the blurring impression of “the
obscure lighting an obscure world“ (a phrase taken from The Motive for Metaphor by Wallace
Stevens), too wonderful for any pen to describe in an exact manner. The second element is the
romantic atmosphere the author creates. The typical example is what the author terms “a more
poetical kind of association,“ which is displayed to a certain extent with such phrases as “noble
dignity,“ “the spirit of the Renaissance,“ “sober ecclesiastical influence,“ “serious grace,“ and
“the expansive power of God.“ We would label the third element, despite its somewhat roman-
tic flavor, as uplifting inspiration as advocated by neo-classicists. The metaphor “as the fire on
the altar, throwing up its sharp darting tongues of flame, its clouds of fragrant smoke, giving
warmth and significance and a fiery heart to a somber shrine“ in Paragraph 6 and the mention
of the divine company of Homer and Sophocles, Plato and Virgil, Dante and Goethe in Para-
graph 7 could be regarded as two instances. Would you locate another three examples in the
text that illustrate the three elements mentioned above?
有以下几个因素让这篇文章如此成功。
首先是作者花费了诸多笔墨向读者描绘了牛精大学的概况，而不是采用印象派的手法描绘些许景色。第二段就是一个很好的例子，如“就像一贫如洗的人，好不容易用硬币凑成一堆金钱，然后独自欣赏。”这比喻让读者着迷于“昏暗的灯光照着朦胧的世界”的感觉 (摘自华莱士?史蒂芬的《比喻的动机》)，这是任何文字都无法描述的感觉。
其次是作者创造的浪漫气氛。最好的例子作者写的“更有诗意的意象”，这个词组从某种程度上表明了“高贵的尊严”、“文艺复兴的精神”、“明显的宗教影响”、“严肃的优雅”和“上帝的强大力量”。
第三点是，尽管它具有新古典主义者所推崇的浪漫气息。如第六段的这个比喻“犹如圣坛上的火，高高扬起它的火舌，弥漫火的气息，带来温暖、力量和燃烧殆尽的心”以及第七段提到了荷马、索福克勒斯、柏拉图、维吉尔、但丁和歌德优秀人物。你能在文中找出其他三个例子说明上述三点的吗？
希望的故事
我第一次看见这熊猫宝宝时她只有10天大，她看起来像个白老鼠。我们叫他Xi Wang，意思是“希望”。
希望出生的时候只有100克重。在4个月大时，她重约10公斤，并开始第一次走出家。8个月以后，她不在是个小宝宝了，她长成一个健康年轻的大熊猫，重35公斤。
在一开始，希望喝她妈妈的奶每天达到14小时。当她6个月大时，她开始吃竹笋和竹叶。当他20个月大时，她得自己照顾自己因为她的妈妈又生了一个熊猫宝宝。
可惜的是，大熊猫在野外生存非常困难，通常是因为人类，如果她生存在野外，就会有这些她将来可能遇到的问题。
如果猎人捉到只大熊猫，他们会把她杀了，为了取她的皮毛。如果农民砍下树和森林，大熊猫就将会没有地方住了。
大熊猫妈妈经常让熊猫宝宝独自呆2整天，如果人们发现独自在外的大熊猫，他们将把她带走。他们认为熊猫宝宝需要帮助。
大熊猫正处于危险之中。我们可以做怎么呢？我们可以采取以下措施来保护大熊猫：
·使大熊猫自然保护区更大
·建立更多的自然保护区
·鼓励农民离开大熊猫自然保护区
如果我们什么也不做，不久，世界上就没有大熊猫了！
（终于打完了，累~）

Penicillin ：：Another drug that has helped increase the standard of people’s health is penicillin, which is considered by many to be one of the most important medicines in contemporary society. It was discovered by a Scottish scientist named Alexander Fleming in 1928. He noted that a dish in which he was trying to grow bacteria for an experiment looked abnormal--there was blue mould in it. It astonished him to see the bacteria surrounding the mould dead, which meant that the mould had killed them. Fleming tried this mould out on another bacterium and found that it killed the bacterium too. He immediately realized that the mould might have an application in treating illnesses caused by bacteria. He named the liquid made from the mould ’penicillin’. However, the development of penicillin as a drug faced two problems. First, he was unable to find a procedure to make penicillin pure enough to work as a medicine. Second, it was difficult to produce penicillin in the ample quantities needed to be effective. In 1940, two other scientists, Howard Florey (Australian) and Ernst Chain (German-born English), helped solve these problems, and managed to make and test the new drug in large quantities. Since the new drug was needed for World War II, the government approval process for penicillin was accelerated, and mass production began in 1944. Due to the widespread use of penicillin, many lives were saved during the war. If penicillin had not been available, many people would have died from sickness or even small wounds. Penicillin became the greatest drug of the 20th century, saving millions of lives. In 1945, the three scientists, Fleming, Florey and Chain, shared the Nobel Prize in Medicine for their work. ??
Magic needles: Chinese acupuncture?
One of the most famous Chinese medical treatments is the art of ’magic needles’, or Chinese acupuncture. It was developed long ago, perhaps as early as 2000 BC. There is evidence that acupuncture began during the Stone Age, when stone tools called bian (砭) were used to press areas of the body.?
As acupuncture developed, the simple bian stones were replaced by stone needles. Eventually, metal needles began to appear and took their place. There were nine different kinds of needles. These included a needle with a head like an arrow, used for making shallow holes in the surface of the skin; a needle with a round tip, used for pressing the tissue under the skin; a dull needle, used for tapping against pressure points; and a needle like a small sword, used for letting liquid out of body parts which had swollen up. These needles could be made of different metals, such as gold and silver. Some acupuncturists today still use gold and silver needles, but the majority use only stainless steel ones. The main needle now used for acupuncture is fine and sharp. Most of the others have been replaced by more complex medical instruments. For example, the needle looking like a sword has been replaced by a sharp knife that doctors use in operations.?
Acupuncture uses stainless steel needles that are put into the skin at certain points on the body so that a disease can be cured or a health problem solved. These points are called acupuncture points. When acupuncture was first practised, there were 365 such points. The number of acupuncture points was the same as the number of days in a year. However, over the last 2,000 years, this number has gradually increased to about 2,000. Some acupuncturists insert needles at or near the body part affected by the disease, while others select points according to the symptoms that the patient has.?
If you go to an acupuncturist, he or she will ask you questions about your medical history and your way of life. The acupuncturist will look at the colour of your skin and your tongue, listen to your breathing, and check your pulses. ? ?
Western medicine only recognizes one pulse which indicates the heartbeat. However, according to traditional Chinese medicine, there are twelve different pulses, six on each wrist, and every one of them is connected with a major body organ or its function. By checking all the pulses, the acupuncturist can find out which energy channel does not have enough energy.?
Some of the medical problems that can be treated by acupuncture include severe pains, headaches, injuries, stomach problems and high blood pressure. Some people have also used acupuncture to treat smokers, alcoholics and people who are addicted to drugs.?
How acupuncture reduces pain is not clear. One theory explaining this phenomenon suggests that acupuncture blocks pain signals from reaching the brain. Another theory relates acupuncture to the production of chemicals in the body which reduce pain. A lot of people now subscribe to these theories.?
As a unique contribution of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture spread to many other Asian countries, such as Japan, as early as the 6th century. It was introduced to the West in the 17th century. Today acupuncture has become popular round the world, as have other traditional Chinese medicines. The World Health Organization recommends acupuncture as a good treatment for over forty medical problems. While doubts about its safety have faded away, interest continues to grow.
ical components eventually became so small that, by the late 1960s, portable cassette players were developed, along with video recorders which were used by TV stations. By the late 1970s, video recorders small and cheap enough for home use were introduced. Sound and video go digital?
In 1982, the first CDs were made available. CDs are often used for storing and playing music because they have a much better sound quality than traditional records and cassettes. In 1993, the VCD was born, and in 1995, the DVD was invented. The DVD is now the standard for recording?
At the moment, it may be difficult to imagine, but many people believe that, by the year 2100, we will be living on the planet Mars.Our own planet, Earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted.Hopefully, we can start again and build a better world on Mars. Here is what life might be like.
First of all, transport should be much better. At present, our spacecraft are too slow to carry large numbers of people to Mars---- it takes months. However, by the year 2100, the journey might take only a very short time in space shuttles that travels at half the speed of light!
Humans need food, water and air to survive.Scientists should be able to develop plants that can grow on Mars. These plants will produce the food, water and oxygen that we need. However, nobody is sure if these plants can produce enough water.
Gravity will be a problem for the early settlers on Mars. The gravity on Mars is only about three-eighths of that on Earth.This may be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and float away into space. To prevent this, humans on Mars have to wear special boots to make themselves heavier. These boots will probably become very fashionable and there will be many different designs for settlers to choose from.
Compared with life on Earth,life on Mars will be better in many ways.People will have more space. We may even live in a dome with ten bedrooms. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work and that we will have more time for our hobbies
there will probably be no schools on Mars every student will have a computer at home connected to an interplanetary network they can study do their homework and take exams at online schools each student will aiso have their own online teacher called an ’e-teacher’
however in some ways life on mars may not be better than life on earth today food will not be the same meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as tasty as they are today also space travel will make many people feel ill the space shuttles travel fast but the journey to mars may be very uncomfortable
前,令人难以想象的,但是许多人认为,到2100年,今年我们会生活在火星我们的星球——地球正在变得越来越拥挤,污染越来越严重。希望我们能重新开始建立一个更美好的世界在火星上。这是的生活会是什么样。
首先,运输应该做得更好。目前,我们的太空飞船太慢了想要将大批的人送到火星——它都需要数月。然而,到2100年,旅程可能只需要很短的时间内,在航天飞机以半光的速度!
人类需要食物、水和空气才能生存科学家应该可以开发能够生长在火星上的植物。这些植物将会产出的食物、水和氧气我们所需要的。然而,却没有人能肯定这些植物能产生足够的水。
地球引力将是火星早期定居者所遇到的问题。在火星上的引力只有地球上的three-eighths这可能是危险的,因为我们可以很容易地跳过高,漂走到太空中。为防止这种情况,在火星上的人得穿上特别的靴子来给自己加重。这些靴子将有可能非常流行而且还有许多不同的式样供定居者选择。
与地球上的生命,,火星上的生活将会更好的在许多方面人们就会有更多的空间。我们甚至还可以生活在一个屋顶用十间卧室。许多人认为机器人会做大部分是我们的工作,我们将会有更多的时间为我们的爱好
可能会有火星上没有学校每个学生都家里有电脑连接到一个行星际的网络他们可以学习做作业,考试在线学校是每个学生都有自己的在线老师叫一个“e-teacher”
然而在某些方面火星上的生活也许没有现在地球上的生活好食物就不相同的食物可能会药的形式,并且不会被逊于他们今天也太空旅行会让许多人觉得不舒服航天飞机旅行速度,但火星之旅可能很不舒服

Dealing with trouble
Thursday，28 June
Today my father and I were waiting for the ferry ．People usually wait quietly，but this afternoon we heard a big argument ．Two women tourists were shouting at a big man ．He was shouting back at them ．He held out a bag, and showed everyone that it was empty．
The crowd stared at the three people ．No one knew what was happening．
My father moved through the crowd and said quietly to one of the women，“What’’’’s going on?“
“They stole my friend’’’’s purse five minutes ago, “said the woman．“We were down in the bookshop，buying postcards ．Three young men started talking to us ．At first they were very friendly. Then suddenly my friend noticed that her purse was not in her handbag. Two of the men ran away ．We followed this man here．“
Then the bell rang, the gates opened, and everyone started going down onto the ferry．The man hurried aboard，and the two tourists went after him．
“Wait, “said my father. “I don’’’’t want to go on that ferry．“
This was strange ．Was my father afraid of that man? I wanted to go and watch the action．
But he hurried to an ice-cream shop，“Can I use your phone?“ he asked the shop assistant ．He quickly dialled 110．
“I want to report a robbery．The man is on the ferry now. It just left a few minutes ago．“He looked down through the railings．“It’’’’s the‘No.3’Ferry，“he said，“Please meet the ferry．“He gave some more details，and then put the phone down．
We took the next ferry．As we got off, we saw them．Six policemen stood around the man，who was in handcuffs ．The two women were talking to the police．
“ Well done，Dad，I said as we walked by．“Good thinking!”

处理麻烦事
6月28日，星期四
今天我和爸爸正在等渡船。人们通常都是安静地等，但是今天下午我们听到很大的争吵声。两个女游客正对一个男人大声嚷嚷。他也对她们喊。他翻出包，让大家看那是空的。
人们都盯着这三个人。没有人知道发生了什么事。
我爸爸从人群中走出来，轻轻地对其中一个女人说：“发生什么事了？”
“五分钟前他们偷了我朋友的钱包，”那个女人说。“我们正在逛书店，买明信片。三个年轻人开始跟我们交谈。起初他们都非常友好。突然我的朋友注意到她的钱包不在手提包里了。其中的两个人逃跑了。我们跟着这个人一直到这儿。”
就在这时铃响了，门开了，人们开始上船。那位男子匆匆上船，两位游客紧随其后。
“等一下，”我爸爸说。“我不想上那艘船。”
这真是奇怪。我爸爸怕那个男人吗？我想去看个究竟。
但是他匆忙赶到一家冰淇淋店。“我能用一下电话吗？”他问店员。他迅速拨打110.
“我想报告一宗抢劫案。那个人正在船上。刚离开几分钟。”他穿过栏杆往下看。“是三号渡船，”他说。“请去接船。”他又说了一些细节，然后挂了电话。
我们坐了下一艘船。我们下船时看见他们了。6名警察站在一名戴手铐的男子周围，那两个女人正在和警察交谈。
“爸爸，干得好，”我们一边走我一边说。“好主意！”
