bitterly all the marital chances she had let go by.

the next speaker on the tape was a woman who had remained single because she thought she was obliged to take care of her mother who was a widow. she still remembered and told others miserably about all the chances of marriage she had missed.

4. in the end, if you let it become a habit, it can become a real roadblock, an excuse for not trying any more.

can really turn to an obstruction, providing you with an excuse for giving up trying anything at all.

unit 2

delay leads to problems. however, in many cases, it can often stimulate the creativity in an artist.

3. he notes that speedy action can be embarrassing or extremely costly.

he points out that hastiness may give rise to decision which turn out to be humiliating or expensive.

4. bureaucratization, which flourished amid the growing burdens of government and the greater complexity of society, was designed to smother policymakers in blankets of legalism, compromise and reappraisal---and thereby prevent hasty decisions from being made.

excessive red-tape(官样文章；繁文缛节) developed because public administration was expanding in scope and because society was growing more and more complicated. in this sense, red-tape helped those in charge of policy to be fully engaged in enormous amount of paperwork and judgment, thus making it impossible for an immature decision to result.

5. ...many of my friends go through agonies when they face a blank page.

…many of my friends have a hard time the moment they attempt to put pen to paper.

unit 3

1. of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is unnerving; but i suspect---i more than suspect, i am convinced---that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of money.

brought up in the old tradition, my father is naturally not prepared to accept the idea of modern architecture; his objection to it, i would assume, indeed i should say i am pretty sure, is not a result of his strong dislike of the physical building itself, but rather that of his refusal to change his attitude towards money.

2. if a buildings design made it appear impregnable, the institution was necessarily sound, and the meaning of the heavy wall as an architectural symbol dwelt in the prevailing attitude toward money, rather than in any aesthetic theory.

if a building was made to look sturdy/invulnerable, it would be accordingly regarded as reliable, and the significance of the thick walls would be measured not by their artistic value, but by their seeming ability to provide a safe location for money.

3. in a primitive society, for example, men pictured the world as large, fearsome, hostile, and beyond human control.

people in a primitive society, for example, saw the world as an enormous planet full of fear, hatred and disorder.

4.the principal function of todays wall is to separate possible undesirable outside air from the controlled conditions of temperature and humidity which we have created inside.

today a wall serves mainly as a physical means to protect the desired atmosphere inside from being disturbed by anything unwelcome outside.

5. to repeat, it is not our advanced technology, but our changing conceptions of ourselves in relation to the world that determine how we shall build our walls.

again, the decisive factor that can influence the design of a wall is not the advancement of science and technology, but our ever-changing attitude towards our place in this world.

unit 4

1. he was a man of exuberant fancy, and, withal, of an authority so irresistible that, at his will, he turned his varied fancies into facts.

he was a man rich in whimsies, and intolerant of any act bold enough as to challenge his authority. when his mind caught upon something, absurd as it might be, he would do everything to make sure that it was done in the way he wished.

2. when every member of his domestic and political systems moved smoothly in its appointed course, his nature was bland

and genial; but whenever there was a little hitch, and some of his orbs got out of their orbits, he was blander and more genial still, for nothing pleased him so much as to make the crooked straight, and crush down uneven places.

when all his subjects behaved in such a manner as they were told to, he could be gentle and kind. and he could even be more so, if anything not conforming to what he expected should occur, because that offered a great chance for him to see the undesirable removed, a thing he was most delighted in doing.

3. he could open either door he pleased: he was subject to no guidance or influence but that of the aforementioned impartial and incorruptible chance.

he enjoyed total freedom to choose what to do: he was not directed or influenced by anyone as to which door to open. the only thing that was decisive in terms of his fate was the above-mentioned chance, granted to all the accused alike.

4. this element of uncertainty lent an interest to the occasion which it could not otherwise have attained.

the fact that no one could tell for sure what might happen (to the accused) made this from of trial more attractive than any other form of justice.

5. thus the masses were entertained and pleased, and the thinking part of the community could bring no charge of unfairness against this plan; for did not the accused person have the whole matter in his own hands?

thus people enjoyed coming here to watch, and those guided by reason in the society could not possibly question the fairness of this form of trial; for was it not the fact that all the accused were given equal chances to make decisions upon their won destiny?

unit5

1. this semi-barbaric king had a daughter as blooming as his most florid fancies, and with a soul as fervent and imperious as his own.

this semi-barbaric king had a daughter as exuberant as the wildest of his notions, a daughter who possessed a nature as fierce and tyrannical as his own.

2. of course, everybody knew that the deed with which the accused was charged had been done.

it was, of course, known to all that he was guilty of the offense of conducting an affair with the princess.

3. ...; but the king would not think of allowing any fact of this kind to interfere with the workings of the tribunal, in which he took such great delight and satisfaction.

…,even though the king was well aware that the love affair had taken place, he would still refuse to let the normal method of deciding guilt or innocence be disturbed, because he was extremely enthusiastic about his way of setting matters of this kind.

4. ...; but gold, and the power of a womans will, had brought the secret to the princess.

.…; but because she had the money, and above all, because her determination was so irresistible, the princess was able to get access to the secret.

5. he understood her nature, and his soul was assured that she would never rest until she had made plain to herself this thing, hidden to all other lookers-on, even to the king.

he knew her so well that he was perfectly positive that she would never cease to search for the secret, which remained unknown to all other spectators, even to the king himself.

unit 6

1. there seems to be a general assumption that brilliant people cannot stand routine; that they need a varied, exciting life in order to do their best.

it is generally believed that a colorless life can freeze a creative mind, and that only a colorful life can inspire a man to creative work.

2. the outstanding characteristic of mans creativeness is the ability to transmute trivial impulses into momentous consequences.

one of the wonders human creativity works is that man can make full use of even insignificant feelings to produce far-reaching results.

3. an eventful life exhausts rather than stimulates.

a life full of diversions stops man’s creativity instead of activating it.

4. it is usually the mediocre poets, writers, etc.,who go in search of stimulating events to release their creative flow.

only literary artists of an average type rely on excitements in life as a source for their creative work./ great poets, writers, etc., create works of art out of trivial and common subject.

5. people who find dull job unendurable are often dull people who do not know what to do with themselves when at leisure.

people who are unable to see how to be patient with repetitious work are usually those who are unable to see where to find fun in life when it comes to relaxation.

guided writing ( p5 )

i love travelling by train. fast expresses, slow local trains which stop at every station, suburban trains taking businessmen to their offices and home again; i enjoy them all. it must be the element of romance that attracts me. there is no romance on motorway, which is a box of metal and rubber on a strip of concrete, or in flying through the air in a pressurized tube from one identical plastic and glass airport to another. but trains are different. on a train, you can walk around, look at the scenery, observe your fellow passengers; whereas in a plane all you can see are the clouds and the back of other people’s heads. and then there are the stations. some, i’m afraid, have become too like airport; others, fortunately, are old and dirty, full of unexpected details and with their own individual peculiarities. traveling by train remains an adventure, as you try to interpret the timetable, persuade the booking office clerk to sell you a ticket and understand the incomprehensible messages coming over the loudspeaker system. then there is that delightful uncertainty as you wonder whether you are on the right train, or the right part of the train. there’s nothing like it.

the most important day i remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, anne sullivan, came to me. it was the third of march, 1887, three months before i was seven years old. on the afternoon of that eventful day, i stood on the porch, dumb, expe ctant, i guessed from my mother’s signs and from the hurrying in the house that something unusual was about to happen, so i went to the door and waited on the steps. hanging down from the porch was sweet-smelling honeysuckle. my fingers lightly touched the familiar leaves and blossoms which had just come forth to greet the sweet southern spring. i did not know what surprise the future held for me.

i felt approaching footsteps. i stretched out my hand as i supposed to my mother. someone took it, and i was caught up and held close in the arms of her who had come to help me discover all things to me, and, more than anything thing else, to love me.
