118、 on that day.When Boya learnt about Zhong Ziqis death,he was overcome with sorrow.He played High Mountains and Flowing Water in front of Zhong Ziqis grave.After he finished playing the piece,he destroyed the qin and said,“Since the only person that understands my music is gone,its no use keeping the

145、ic lovers streamed into a theatre in Vienna to hear the first-ever performance of the great Ludwig van Beethovens Symphony No.9.The crowd immediately recognized that they were listening to something truly special,and they broke into enthusiastic cheers at the end of the symphony.Beethoven,who was al
146、most completely deaf at this point in his life,was unaware of the audiences response until one of the singers turned him around to face the crowd.Before him,he saw a sea of people all standing,clapping,and waving their hats and handkerchiefs to express their appreciation of his masterwork.Symphony N
147、o.9 was Beethovens last major piece of music in a vast body of works written throughout his remarkable life.As a gifted child,Beethoven was pushed by his father to study music day and night.Not long after,he began to be appreciated for his piano performances.By the time he was a teenager,he had alre
148、ady enjoyed a reputation as a wonderful young musician.Many important figures in the music world,including the brilliant musician Mozart,started making predictions about Beethovens extraordinary future.However,life took a sharp turn.In his late twenties,Beethoven suffered one of the worst possible t
149、wists for a musician:he started to lose his hearing.The loss of his hearing deeply depressed Beethoven.He was so upset that,at first,he wanted to keep it a secret.In a letter to his brothers,he wrote,“how could I possibly admit a weakness in the one sense which should be more perfect in TipIn some t

153、 hearing aids to try to increase the amount of sound he could take in.When composing music at the piano,he would put one end of a pencil in his mouth and place the other end against the instrument so that he could feel the notes.Although Beethoven was able to continue composing music,it became incre
154、asingly difficult for him to perform in public.When Beethoven presented Symphony No.9 in Vienna in 1824,it was his first time on stage in over ten years.Since that day,Beethovens Symphony No.9 has become one of the most famous and treasured pieces in the history of classical music.The first movement

169、s looking forward to most about my trip to Paris:visiting the Muse dOrsay.Housed in an old railway building,this world-famous art museum features some of the best-known paintings from the Impressionist movement of the 19th century.As I wandered through the Impressionist gallery,I appreciated masterp
170、ieces like The Ballet Class and The Card Players.Even though I had admired them hundreds of times on my computer screen,nothing could have prepared me for the wonder I felt when I finally laid eyes on the real thing.While it was hard to pick a favourite painting out of so many amazing works,the arti
171、sts who made the deepest impression on me were two of the greatest Impressionist painters,Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir.I could see from Monets works that he was greatly inspired by nature.In the last three decades of his life he painted mostly scenes from his garden.One of these scenes is
172、shown in the famous piece Blue Water Lilies,which I studied for quite a while in the gallery.I couldnt believe it when I heard he did around 250 paintings Visiting museums is a very rewarding experience.The travel journal below is about a visit to an art museum.Before you read the travel journal,thi

174、simple scene,he brought the ponds beauty to the canvas in a unique way.Renoir,I noticed,preferred to paint scenes of everyday life.For me,the most interesting of his paintings is his 1876 masterpiece Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette,which shows life in a busy neighbourhood of Paris on a Sunday after
175、noon.When I saw it up close,I was struck by the small areas of light across the painting,and the way the soft edges of the figures seemed to mix together.Theres so much going on,but so little clear detail.This effect makes the lively movement of the dance almost jump out at the viewer.Although the p
176、aintings had very different settings,it was their similarities that stayed with me long after I left the Muse dOrsaysimilarities which can be seen throughout the Impressionists paintings.Monet and Renoir,along with other like-minded artists,sought liberation from the rules of the old style.Everyday
177、subject matter was the main focus of their works,as opposed to the history paintings that had traditionally dominated European art.They employed free brushwork and used colours to show the effect of light on things,creating paintings that were far less realistic than the works that came before.To me
178、,these techniques are the essence of the Impressionist view of art.Impressionist artists did not try to paint every detail in a scenejust a brief“impression”they had at that moment,burning with vivid colours and light,before it disappeared.The Impressionists vision inspired a whole new generation of
179、 Post-Impressionist painters such as Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin,whose works are also displayed at the Muse dOrsay.It is also worthy of note that Post-Impressionist painters were not the only ones to be influenced by Impressionismthe movement has had a lasting influence on modern art,encouragi

221、ing(present-day Kaifeng),the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty.The ancient scroll has survived the test of time remarkably well,and is currently housed in the Palace Museum in Beijing.The scroll consists of three main sections.The first section presents a peaceful scene of rural life near Bianjin
222、g,featuring crop fields,a river winding through the landscape,and farmers hard at work.The second section shows the riverbanks and the central bridge alive with activity as boats sail in and out of Bianjing.Civilians can also be seen walking through the city gate in both directions.The third and fin
223、al section pictures life inside the city itself.Here,hundreds of people from all walks of life,including butchers,hairdressers and government officials,can be seen going about their daily business.The combination of these three sections gives the viewer an idea of what life was like for the people o
224、f Bianjing.Zhangs amazing artistic technique is apparent all across the scroll.Using ink on silk,he creates realistic images of scenery,buildings and people,and displays a remarkable mastery of perspective.The most impressive aspect of the painting,however,is probably Zhangs precise brushwork.This w

226、l this fine detail,the Qingming Scroll provides a comprehensive look at life during the Northern Song Dynasty.It reveals a great deal about the 12th-century Chinese customs,clothing,transportation methods,business practices,and a wide range of buildings,such as temples,teahouses and government struc
227、tures.At first sight,the overall scene of life in the capital city appears peaceful and cheerful.However,some critics suggest that on closer inspection,the painting actually exposes serious political and social problems.Some boats carrying food do not seem to belong to the government,which suggests
228、that the government has lost control of food supplies and transportation.Also in the painting are soldiers who appear to ignore their duties.There are some less obvious indicators of trouble too.For example,in the centre of the scroll,a boat is in danger of crashing into the bridge.These sorts of de
229、tails point to a crisis developing in the city.In fact,the Northern Song Dynasty was in decline by this stage.About twenty years after the painting was completed,it was overthrown.Zhangs timeless scroll is an important example of realism in the history of Chinese paintings.Its value is down not only
230、 to its great scale,artistic quality and attention to detail,but also to its representation of daily life.Such is its worth that several later emperors even asked the most talented artists of their day to make copies of the scroll.Some of these copies are now regarded as precious works of art in the

245、will.What is kept in the heart is the will,but when expressed in words,it is poetry.“Preface to The Book of Songs”Welcome to the unitPoetry is a significant form of literature.Read the two poems below and discuss the following questions in pairs.In this unit,you are going to:read a lecture transcrip
246、t on how to read poems;write about your understanding of a famous poem;read an essay on a Chinese poet;give a poetry recital.1 How do you like the two poems?2 What other poems or poets do you know about?43Unit 4People with the impression that poetry is difficult to understand often hesitate about re
247、ading poetry.The lecture transcript below explains how to better understand and appreciate poems.Before you read the lecture transcript,think about the following questions:Why do people read poems?What aspects of a poem do you pay attention to when you read it?Poetry is a combination of“sound”and“se
248、nse”.More than any other type of literature,it usually implies a deeper meaning beyond the words on the page.So,how to reveal this hidden dimension?First,follow your ears.While you may ask“What does it mean?”as you begin reading a poem,it is better to ask“How does it sound?”Even if its true meaning
249、appears to be beyond your grasp,you can always say something about how the poem sounds when you read it aloud.Do you detect a rhythm?Are there any repeated words,rhymes or other special effects?All of these are good qualities to notice,and they may lead you to a better understanding of the poem in t
250、he end.Read these lines to feel how they sound.Sweet and low,sweet and low,Wind of the western sea,Low,low,breathe and blow,Wind of the western sea!Over the rolling waters go,Come from the dying moon,and blow,Blow him again to me;While my little one,while my pretty one,sleeps.(From“Sweet and Low”by
251、Alfred Tennyson)Second,approach the poem as if you were an explorer in an unfamiliar landscape.Ask some basic questions about the poem.Who is talking?Who is being talked to?What is being described?Is there a sense of place?Are there other people or objects there?As you explore the poem,you will begi
252、n to see images in your mind.What are those images,and what happens when they are put together?This combination Reading510152044Exploring poetryis often complex or even contradictory.As you slowly explore your surroundings,you will start to dig up clues that give you a greater understanding of the p
253、oem.Read these lines,pay attention to the image of the caged bird and try to find out what it means.The caged bird singswith a fearful trillof things unknownbut longed for stilland his tune is heardon the distant hill for the caged birdsings of freedom.(From“Caged Bird”by Maya Angelou)Third,if you a
254、re still struggling to interpret the meaning of a poem even with much painstaking effort,just have some patience.You cannot really understand a poem that you have only read once.Sometimes reading a poem can be a lifelong job.So if you do not get it,set the poem aside and come back to it later.As an
255、explorer,you will not reach your goal immediatelyyou need to go on a journey to a remote and unknown destination.This may seem difficult at first,but when you finally make your great discovery,your efforts will be rewarded.Poems that are easy to understand are often less interesting than those that
256、constantly reveal deeper and previously unrecognized meanings.Read these lines and try to find out what they mean.Whose woods these are I think I know.His house is in the village though;He will not see me stopping hereTo watch his woods fill up with snow.(From“Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”by
257、 Robert Frost)Finally,remember that you do not have to fully understand a poem to appreciate it.You might need to abandon logical thinking to discover its true inner beauty.As long as the journey of poetry reading makes you feel something or lets you perceive another level of meaning,it will have be
258、en worth your effort.Poetrys combination of“sound”and“sense”makes you see the world in a new way and allows you to go beyond normal reality for the everlasting beauty.Enjoy your journey in the world of poetry!253035404550556045Unit 4A Understanding the textA1 The lecture transcript gives four tips o

275、Romantics was to break with the ideals of the 18th century:they refused to follow rigid rules;instead,they put emphasis on the importance of imagination and feeling,the love of nature and a return to the past.In England,the greatest achievements of the Romantic movement lay in poetry,especially that
276、 of William Wordsworth,Samuel Taylor Coleridge,George Gordon Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley.During that time,England was undergoing a process called industrialization.Large factories were being built and people were made to work long hours.Romantic poets were often not pleased with what was happenin

301、and his romantic poetryExtended readingRead the essay on the life and works of the famous Chinese poet Li Bai.A hundred feet the temple towers;I can reach out for the stars in the sky.But I dare not speak in a voice loud,For fear of scaring dwellers on high.(“A Night Stay at a Mountain Temple”)It is
302、 believed that this poem was written by Li Bai in his teenage years.With striking imagination in expressions like“scaring dwellers on high”,this early poem already displayed signs of a romantic style,which was later to characterize Li Bais poetry.Li Bais love of reading and travelling from an early
303、age contributed to his romantic style.He started studying the classics when he was only five years old,and was reading ancient philosophers of different schools at the age of ten,including Confucianism and Taoism.By reading books of all kinds,from legends to historical stories,he familiarized himsel
304、f with classical Chinese culture,and more importantly,he acquired the wisdom of previous generations.Driven by a burning desire for adventure and travel,Li Bai left home and started to travel around in his early twenties.His footsteps covered almost the whole country.During his travels,he visited fa
305、mous mountains and great rivers,encountering different customs and practices.These travelling experiences also nourished his love of nature and inspired him to write numerous poems in the romantic style.Li Bais romantic style was also deeply rooted in the social and historical context in which he li
306、ved.Li Bai grew up in the most glorious period of the Tang Dynasty,Exploring poetry510152053a time of economic boom and social stability.This open and tolerant atmosphere allowed Li Bai the liberty to develop a free and unconstrained personality,which,in turn,had a huge impact on his poetic producti
307、on.Given his personal experiences and the historical background,it is only natural to see that the majority of Li Bais poems are characterized by the romantic style.Even the most uninformed reader would not fail to be impressed by the poets rich imagination.The moon and stars in the sky,the natural
308、landscape and the figures in legends all become a vehicle for his imagination.Equally impressive is Li Bais free expression of strong feelings,which breathes vitality into the lifeless objects he describes,and which distinguishes him from other landscape poets.These features are inseparable from Li
309、Bais wide use of exaggeration,metaphor and other artistic techniques.The poem below,written in his fifties,is representative of his romantic style:My silver hair is three thousand feet long,Because my sorrow is deep and strong.How can the autumn frost whiteBe cast into the mirror bright?(“Autumn Fro
310、st”)With his extraordinary imagination,free expression of strong feelings and mastery of language,Li Bai is widely recognized as the greatest romantic poet after Qu Yuan.Generations of poets,both in China and abroad,owe a debt to his inspirational poems.One such poet is Ezra Pound,a 20th-century Ame
311、rican poet.He was fascinated by Li Bais poems and translated some of them in his 1915 poetry collection entitled Cathay.Today Li Bais poetry continues to be enjoyed by countless readers around the world.A Write a summary of the essay on Li Bais life and poetry.B Analyse the following poem by Li Bai

332、g flour in the Middle East around 10,000 years ago.But no one had ever found a prehistoric noodleuntil 2002.Archaeologists discovered an upside-down clay bowl in the ruins of an ancient Chinese village.When they lifted it,they found a 4,000-year-old noodle.This“mummy”noodle was made from millet.Trad
333、ers brought wheat to China about the time this ancient noodle was cooked.The Chinese eventually mastered the art of stretching wheat dough into long noodles.Today,an expert chef can turn a ball of dough into 3-metre noodles in just minutes.Some people claim that Marco Polo brought pasta to Italy.The
334、 tale says that when he visited China,he tried noodles for the first time and liked them so much that he took the recipe home.But it is probably not true!In fact,it was likely made up by an American magazine to try to get Americans to eat more pasta.According to Marco Polo,wheat was used for making
335、thin noodles,not bread,in China.Since Marco Polo described Chinese noodles by comparing them to Italian noodles,it is clear that in Marco Polos Italy,noodles were already on the menu.So,if Marco Polo did not bring noodles to Italy,who did?The oldest written mention of pasta outside China comes from
336、the Middle East,about 1,600 years ago.The text describes how to eat dried noodles,a popular travel food in the Middle East and Central Asia.Dried noodles were perfect for long trips.They were tasty,easy to carry,and never went bad.Some historians believe that dried noodles spread out from the Middle
337、 East or Central Asia.Traders packed their noodles and travelled to other parts of the world.Wherever they got the recipe,Italians were eating pasta long before Marco Polo.So who REALLY invented noodles?We may never knowthe history of noodles is as twisted as a bowl of spaghetti.But whoever invented

506、汉初年鲁国的毛亨和赵国的毛苌所辑、注的诗经版本,毛诗序即为它所作的序言,其作者不详。这句话说明了诗歌具有抒情言志的功能。2 Even if its true meaning appears to be beyond your grasp,you can always say something about how the poem sounds when you read it aloud.(page 44,lines 57)91 即使你似乎无法理解诗歌的真正含义,也总是可以说说这首诗在朗读时听起来如何。句中 grasp 意为“理解(力),领会”,beyond ones grasp 意为“无法

510、 45,line 54)雪夜林边小驻是美国现代诗人罗伯特弗罗斯特(18741963)一首深受广大读者喜爱的不朽之作。弗罗斯特是美国 20 世纪最负盛名的诗人之一,他善于运用象征主义表现手法,用看似平淡的小事来表达深刻的哲理,巧妙地表达诗歌的主题思想。雪夜林边小驻中,一位步履沉重的赶路人牵着马走到一片幽深可爱的林边休息,并陶醉其中,虽然依依不舍,但不得不离开,继续他的行程。这首诗向我们展示了人在理想和现实之间的困惑和矛盾心理,表达了诗人对人生和社会的思考。6 As long as the journey of poetry reading makes you feel something or

513、ssive is Li Bais free expression of strong feelings,which breathes vitality into the lifeless objects he describes,and which distinguishes him from other landscape poets.(page 54,lines 2931)同样让人印象深刻的是李白强烈情感的自由抒发,这为他笔下的无生命物体注入了生机,也让他有别于其他山水诗人。句中 distinguish 意为“成为的特征,使有别于”,还可以表示“区分,辨别,分清”的意思,后面常跟介词 fr
514、om 或 between。如:The male bird is distinguished from the female bird by its colourful tail.雄鸟尾巴五颜六色,有别于雌鸟。He could no longer distinguish between imagination and reality.他再也无法区分幻想和现实了。10 One such poet is Ezra Pound,a 20th-century American poet.(page 54,line 43)二十世纪的美国诗人埃兹拉庞德就是其中一位。埃兹拉庞德(18851972),美国诗人和
515、文学评论家、意象派诗歌运动的重要代表人物。庞德从美国东方学家费诺罗萨(Fenollosa)的笔记中翻译整理出一些古典诗歌,结为华夏集(Cathay),于 1915 年 4 月出版,诗集中大部分内容译自李白的诗。实际上,华夏集中的诗基本上都不能称作译诗,而应称作改写诗。庞德经过翻译中国诗歌的实践,在自己的诗歌创作中吸收了中国诗歌的丰富营养,使自己的诗歌令人耳目一新,为西方诗歌注入了活力。9394Grammar notes Unit 1动词不定式作主语和表语1 动词不定式可以在句中用作主语。如:To cook Chinese food is not easy.动词不定式作句子主语时可以用形式主语
