湖南自考本科英語(yǔ)(一)鞏固練習試題:第四章
Unit 4 The Joy of Work
Work Is a Blessing
?、?I grew up in Lakeland, Louisiana, one of 12 children. We all lived on my parents' subsistence farm(自給自足的農場(chǎng)). We grew cotton, sugar cane, corn, hogs, chickens and had a large garden, but it didn't bring in much cash. So when I was 12, I got a part-time job on a dairy farm down the road, helping to milk cows. We milked 65 cows at 5 in the morning, and again at 2 in the afternoon, seven days a week.
?、?In the kitchen one Saturday before daylight, I riiber complaining to my father and grandfather about having to go milk those cows. My father said, "Ya know, boy, to work is a blessing."
?、?I looked at those two men who'd worked harder than I ever had - my father eking out a living on that farm, and my grandfather farming and working as a carpenter during the Depression. (1)I had a feeling I had been told something really important, but it took many years before it sank in.(承上、總結的話(huà))
?、?Going to college was a rare privilege for a kid from Lakeland, Louisiana. My father told me if I picked something to study that I liked doing, I'd always look forward to my work. But he also added, "Even having a job you hate is better than not having a job at all." I wanted to be a farmer, but I joined the ROTC(美)后備軍官訓練隊,預備役軍官訓練營(yíng)(Reserve Officers' Training Corps) program to help pay for college. (2)And what started out as an obligation to the Army became a way of life that I stayed committed to for 37 years, three months and three days.
本部分重點(diǎn)及難點(diǎn):
1. I had a feeling I had been told something really important, but it took many years before it sank in. 我有種感覺(jué)--父親跟我說(shuō)了一些確實(shí)重要的東西,但許多年后我才真正理解。
sink in: be understood
It took many years for the teachers' words to sink in.
2. And what started out as an obligation to the Army became a way of life that I stayed committed to for 37 years, three months and three days.
(1) an obligation to the Army 對于部隊的義務(wù)
(2) a way of life 生活方式
(3) stay / be committed to 致力于
He has been committed to working for the people heart and soul for more than twenty years.
(4) 譯文:當時(shí)的"義務(wù)"從軍便成為了我的生活方式--我在部隊服役長(cháng)達37 年三個(gè)月零三天。
?、?In the late 1980s, during a visit to Bangladesh, I saw a woman with her baby on her back, breaking bricks with a hammer. I asked a Bangladesh military escort why they weren't using a machine, which would have been a lot easier. He told me a machine would put that lady out of work. Breaking those bricks meant she'd earn enough money to feed herself and her baby that day. (3)And as bad as that woman's job was, it was enough to keep a small family alive. It riinded me of my father's words: to work is a blessing.(承上、總結的句子)
本部分重點(diǎn)及難點(diǎn):
3. And as bad as that woman's job was, it was enough to keep a small family alive.
此處疑似錯句,應省略前面的as,即改為:And bad as that woman's job was, it was enough to keep a small family alive. 雖然她的工作實(shí)在很糟糕,但那卻足夠養活一個(gè)小家庭。
as意為"雖然",用于倒裝,句式如下:
Though he is very young, he is very learned.=Young as he is, he is very learned.
Though he is an old man, he is very energetic.=Old man as he is, he is very energetic.
Though I like him very much, I won't do his homework for him.
=Much as I like him, I won't do his homework for him.
Though he tried, he failed again.=Try as he did, he failed again.
請認真答題,答題結果將記入知識點(diǎn)測評的成績(jì)!
【單選題】7. _______, he is very gentle and has a sweet voice.
· A. As he is boy
· B. As he is a boy
· C. A boy as he is
· D. Boy as he is
【答案】D
【解析】本題考查as用于倒裝句。Although/though he is a boy=boy as he is,這里一定要注意的是修飾可數名詞單數形式的不定冠詞要省略。這句話(huà)的意思是"雖然他是個(gè)男孩,他非常溫和而且聲音甜美。"
【知識點(diǎn)】as用于倒裝句
?、?Serving in the United States Army overseas, I saw a lot of people like that woman in Bangladesh. And I've come to believe that people without jobs are not free. They're victims of crime, the ideology of terrorism, poor health, depression and social unrest. These victims become the illegal immigrants, the slaves of human trafficking, the drug dealers, and the street gang mibers. I've seen it over and over again on the U.S. border, in Somalia, the Congo, Afghanistan and in New Orleans. People who have jobs can have a home, send their kids to school, develop a sense of pride, contribute to the good of the community and even help others. When we can work, we are free. (總結概括的句子)We are blessed.
?、?I don't think I'll ever quit working. I'm retired from the Army, but I'm still working to help people be prepared for disasters. And I may get to do a little farming someday, too. I'm not going to stop. I believe in my father's words. I believe in the blessing of work.
