[00:00.00]Lesson 29 [00:01.46]第二十九課 [00:02.93]A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER [00:04.22]一位中學教師 [00:05.51]Mrs. Cox teacher English in a high school in San Francisco,a big city on the West Coast of the United States. [00:10.54]科克斯夫人在舊金山(美國西海岸大城市)的一所中學里教英語。 [00:15.57]She had wanted to become a teacher when she was young.She has taught eight years now and always enjoyed her work. [00:20.74]她從小就想當一名教師。現(xiàn)在她已教了八年書，始終熱愛自己的工作。 [00:25.91]A school day at Mrs. Cox’s high school is divided into six periods of one hour each. [00:29.45]科克斯夫人所在的學校，一天六節(jié)課，每節(jié)課一小時， [00:32.99]Mrs. Cox teachers five of these six periods.During her "free" period from 2 to 3 p.m.,Mrs. Cox has to meet with parents, [00:38.62]她一天教五節(jié)課。下午二點到三點是她的“空閑”時間，她在這段時間里會見家長， [00:44.25]order supplies,make out examinations,check assignments,and take care of many other things. [00:48.63]定購教學用品，出考試題，批改作業(yè)，還要料理許多雜事。 [00:53.00]So Mrs. Cox works steadily from the time she arrives at school in the morning until she leaves for home late in the afternoon,and her "free" period isn’t really free at all. [01:00.11]實際上，科克斯夫人從早上一到校就不停地工作，一直到下午很晚離開學校為止，她的“空閑”時間實在一點也不空閑。 [01:07.21]An English teacher usually divides her time among three subjects:language(grammar,punctuation,spelling,etc.),composition,and literature. [01:13.86]英語教師一般都分三種課程來安排時間，即語言(語法、標點符號、拼寫等)，作文和文學。 [01:20.51]Mrs. Cox’s favourite subject is literature,and her most exciting classes are those on the literature of Black Americans. [01:24.87]科克斯夫人特別喜愛文學課，她講的最富有激情的課就是美國黑人文學， [01:29.23]For Mrs. Cox,like most of the students in her school,is Black. [01:32.02]這是因為科克斯夫人和學校大多數(shù)學生一樣是黑人。 [01:34.80]In her sixth period today,Mrs. Cox taught a poem by a well-known Black writer in the United States. [01:39.06]今天第六節(jié)課，科克斯夫人講一位著名黑人作家寫的一首詩刊。 [01:43.31]She wrote the poem on the blackboard and read it aloud. [01:46.04]她把這首詩寫在黑板上，大聲朗誦。 [01:48.77]No sooner had she finished reading the poem than students’ questions began pouring in. [01:52.24]她剛朗誦完，學生們就接連不斷地提問題。 [01:55.70]One boy said the poem was heartbreakingly sad. [01:57.75]一個男生說，這首詩真令人傷心。 [01:59.80]Another student,a girl,said she had read a book by the same writer,but she wasn’t able to enjoy it as much as her mother did,and she didn’t know why. [02:05.79]一個女生說，她讀過這位作家寫的一本書，但不像她母親那樣喜歡它，不知道為什么。 [02:11.79]A third,a keen viewer of TV theatre,recognized a phrase in the poem which had been used as the title of a recent play. [02:16.57]第三個學生是電視劇的熱心觀眾，他記起了最近有一出劇就是用這首詩中的一句話作為劇名。 [02:21.35]As she answered the questions,Mrs. Cox made sure that her students understood every line of the poem. [02:25.18]科克斯夫人回答了學生的問題，力求使他們把每一行詩都弄懂。 [02:29.00]She asked them to discuss if the poem contained any message. [02:31.41]她要學生討論這首詩是否有什么信息傳達給讀者， [02:33.81]The discussion became so lively that no one wanted to stop when the bell rang. [02:37.02]討論十分活躍，下課鈴響了，大家還不愿停下來。 [02:40.24]Some said there was no message,some said there was,some said it didn’t really matter,and the class ended at that. [02:46.02]有的學生說這首詩沒有信息，有的說有，又有的學生說有沒有無關(guān)緊要。這節(jié)課就這樣結(jié)束了。 [02:51.81]As she drove home,Mrs. Cox thought about the class she had just left. [02:54.39]科克斯夫人在驅(qū)車回家的路上想著她剛上完的這節(jié)課。 [02:56.98]Today she could feel good about what she had accomplished as a teacher. [02:59.66]今天她完成了一個教師該完成的任務，她可以感到滿意了， [03:02.33]Not one of her students looked bored.Every one of them seemed interested in the poem. [03:05.43]沒有一個學生顯得厭煩，每個學生都對這首詩感興趣。 [03:08.53]Once they started to talk,they forgot about the time. [03:10.62]他們談論起來，就忘記了時間。 [03:12.71]She did not have to make them learn;she only had to answer their questions and to guide the discussion. [03:16.38]她沒有向?qū)W生灌輸，她只是回答學生的問題，引導討論。 [03:20.05]This,she thought to herself,is what teaching is all about! [03:22.45]這就是教育的真正目的吧，她想。 [03:24.85]A PHONE CALL [03:28.09]A:4372811. [03:31.17]B:Hello,is that Nick? [03:33.24]A:Yes,speaking. [03:35.17]B:Oh,hello.This is Kate.It’s about our meeting with Mr Jones. [03:40.76]A:I think he’s really going to help us a lot.Are you free on Saturday morning to meet him? [03:47.50]B:No,sorry.I’m going to see my bank manager. [03:51.31]A:Oh,dear.What about Friday morning? [03:55.13]B:Yes,Friday is fine.What time? [03:58.94]A:Half past seven. [04:00.56]B:Half past seven.Right.See you then.Bye. [04:04.09]A:Bye. [04:07.33]a poem by LiBai [04:09.09]李白詩一首 [04:10.85]Before my bed There is bright moonlight [04:13.06]床前明月光 [04:15.27]So that it seems Like frost on the ground. [04:17.48]疑是地上霜。 [04:19.68]Lifting my head I watch the bright moon. [04:21.89]舉頭望明月， [04:24.10]Lowering my head I dream that I’m home. [04:26.81]低頭思故鄉(xiāng)。 [04:29.53]RISE LIKE LIONS [04:32.48]Rise like Lions after slumber [04:35.72]In unvanquishable number- [04:38.07]Shake your chains to earth like dew [04:41.47]Which in sleep had fallen on you- [04:45.00]You are many-they are few. [04:49.12]THE SELFISH GIANT [04:50.16]自私的巨人 [04:51.19]One morning the Giant was lying awake in bed when he heard some lovely music. [04:54.41]一天早晨，巨人醒來躺在床上，聽到一陣美妙的音樂。 [04:57.64]It was a little bird singing outside his window.The north wind had stopped. [05:00.94]原來是一只小鳥在窗外唱歌。北風停止了呼嘯。 [05:04.25]A sweet perfume came to him through the open window. [05:06.09]透過敞開的窗戶一股芬芳的香味撲面而來。 [05:07.93]"I believe spring has come at last,"said the Giant.He jumped out of bed and looked out of the window. [05:12.23]"我想春天終于來了，"巨人說，他跳下床，朝窗外望去。 [05:16.53]And what did he see?He saw a most wonderful picture. [05:19.46]他看見什么了?他看見了一幅最動人的畫面。 [05:22.40]Through a little hole in the wall the children had entered the garden,and they were sitting on the branches of the trees. [05:26.33]孩子們從圍墻的小洞里鉆進花園，坐在樹枝上。 [05:30.27]In every tree there was a little child. [05:32.03]每顆樹上都坐著一個小孩。 [05:33.79]The trees were so glad to see the children back again that they covered themselves with blossoms. [05:36.95]果樹看見孩子們回來高興極了，枝丫間開滿鮮花。 [05:40.11]The birds were flying about and singing happily,and the flowers were looking through the green grass. [05:43.85]小鳥兒在空中飛翔、快樂地歌唱，小花兒也從綠草叢中探出腦袋。 [05:47.59]It was a lovely picture.Only in one corner of the garden it was still winter. [05:51.62]好一幅美麗的畫面。只有花園的一個角落里依舊是冬天。 [05:55.66]A little boy was standing there crying.He was so small that he could not reach the branches of the tree. [05:59.92]一個小男孩正站在那兒哭呢。原來他的個頭兒太小夠不著樹枝。 [06:04.17]The poor tree was still covered with frost and snow,and the north wind was blowing above it. [06:07.49]這株可憐的樹依舊滿身霜雪，北風在樹梢上咆哮。 [06:10.81]The Giant’s heart was touched as he saw all this. [06:12.79]看到這一幕，巨人的心被打動了。 [06:14.78]"How selfish I have been!"he said."Now I know why spring did not want to come here. [06:18.45]"我太自私了，"他想，"現(xiàn)在我才明白為什么春天不肯光顧我的花園。 [06:22.12]I will put that poor little boy on the top of that tree,and then I will knock down the wall,and my garden will be the children’s playground for ever." [06:26.94]我要把那個小男孩抱到樹上，然后拆除圍墻，讓我的花園永遠成為孩子們的游樂場。." [06:31.76]He was really sorry for what he bad done.So he opened the door softly and went oun into the garden. [06:36.59]巨人非常后悔他從前所做的一切。他輕輕地打開門，走進花園。 [06:41.42]But when the children saw him,they were so frightened that they all ran away,and winter again came into the garden. [06:45.25]可是孩子們一見他全都嚇跑了，冬天又來到花園。 [06:49.08]Only the little boy did not ran away,for his eyes were so full of tears that he did not see the Giant. [06:53.34]只有那個小男孩沒有跑開，因為他的眼里噙滿淚珠，看不見巨人的到來。 [06:57.59]The Giant came up to him,took him carefully in his arms,and put him on the top of the tree. [07:01.26]巨人走上前，小心地把他抱起，放到樹梢上坐著。 [07:04.93]At once the tree burst into blossom;the birds came back and began to sing in it,and the little boy put his arms round the Giant’s neck,and killed him. [07:10.50]頃刻間那棵樹便綻開了花朵，小鳥兒飛回來了，在樹枝間唱歌。小男孩雙手摟著巨人的脖子給了他一個親吻。 [07:16.06]When the other children saw this,they were not afraid of the Giant any more. [07:18.86]其他的孩子看到這一切，都不再害怕巨人了。 [07:21.65]They came back,and with them came spring. [07:23.64]他們回到花園里，春天也隨他們一同返回。 [07:25.62]"It is your garden now,little children,"said the Giant. [07:27.75]"孩子們，這座花園是屬于你們的，"巨人說著。 [07:29.88]He took a great axe and knocked down the wall. [07:31.42]他抄起一把大斧，把圍墻搗毀。 [07:32.96]After this the children again came to play in the Giant’s garden every day. [07:36.05]從此以后，孩子們每天都到巨人的花園里玩耍。 [07:39.13]Sometimes the Giant played with them.Sometimes he sat in an armchair and watched them play. [07:43.03]巨人有時跟他們一塊兒做游戲，有時坐在扶手椅上看孩子們嬉鬧。 [07:46.94]"I have many beaufiful flowers,"he said,"but the children are the most beaufitul flowers of all." [07:51.26]"我有很多美麗的鮮花，"他說，"但孩子們才是世間最美的花朵。" [07:55.59]Cox [07:56.36]人名 [07:57.13]San Francisco [07:59.69]圣弗蘭西斯科 [08:02.25]city [08:04.08]市 [08:05.90]coast [08:07.58]海岸 [08:09.25]enjoy [08:11.08]喜愛 [08:12.90]period [08:14.79]課時 [08:16.67]each [08:18.44]各 [08:20.22]meet (with) [08:22.20]會見 [08:24.19]supply [08:26.38]供應品 [08:28.58]check [08:30.20]檢查 [08:31.82]assignment [08:33.80]指定的作業(yè) [08:35.79]assign [08:37.51]指定 [08:39.24]steadily [08:41.38]持續(xù)地 [08:43.52]punctuation [08:46.08]標點符號 [08:48.64]composition [08:50.52]作文 [08:52.40]literature [08:54.13]文學 [08:55.85]favourite [08:58.31]特別喜愛的 [09:00.76]subject [09:02.59]學科 [09:04.42]poem [09:06.87]詩 [09:09.33]pour [09:11.16]涌來 [09:12.99]heartbreaking [09:14.66]令人心碎的 [09:16.33]wonder [09:18.42]對…感到奇怪 [09:20.51]enjoy [09:23.07]享受…的樂趣 [09:25.63]keen [09:27.88]熱心的 [09:30.12]viewer [09:31.64]觀眾 [09:33.15]view [09:35.35]看 [09:37.54]TV-television [09:40.26]電視 [09:42.97]theatre [09:44.54]戲劇 [09:46.11]TV theatre [09:48.04]電視劇 [09:49.98]recognize [09:51.70]認出 [09:53.42]title [09:55.36]標題 [09:57.29]recent [09:59.12]最近的 [10:00.95]contain [10:02.98]包含 [10:05.02]lively [10:06.96]生動活潑的 [10:08.89]message [10:10.82]啟示 [10:12.75]accomplish [10:14.69]完成 [10:16.62]bored [10:18.76]bore的過去分詞 [10:20.90]bore [10:22.79]使…感到膩味 [10:24.67]once [10:26.39]一旦…(就) [10:28.11]guide [10:30.20]引導 [10:32.29]Nick [10:33.91]尼克 [10:35.53]Kate [10:37.26]凱特 [10:38.98]bank [10:41.02]銀行 [10:43.06]manager [10:44.47]經(jīng)理
