Oh, I've been playing about two years now.But I'm still not very good.5—I've got a watch with a silver strap.—That's nothing.I've got one with a gold strap.—I've got a watch that tells you the date.—That's nothing.I've got one that tells you the date and the day.6Woman: Look at these glasses, this one's even got lipstick on it.Waiter: I'm very sorry, madam.I'll bring you clean ones right away.7Man: Ah, Head Waiter, I want to have a word with you.Head Waiter: Yes, sir.Is there something wrong, sir?

Read the following passage: 1
ARCHIBALD MACLEISH: Bicentennial of What?
An address at the Bicentennial commemoration of the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia
It is a common human practice to answer questions without truly asking them and the American bicentennial is merely the latest instance.Everyone knows what the Bicentennial celebrates: the 200th anniversary of the adoption, by the Continental Congress, of the Declaration of
Independence.But no one asks what the Bicentennial is because no one asks what the Declaration was.The instrument of announcing American independence from Great Britain? Clearly that: but is that all it was? Is it only American independence from Great Britain we are celebrating on July 4,1976——only the instrument which declared our independence? There have been otherdeclarations of unilateral independence from Great Britain which no one is likely to remember for 200 years, much less to celebrate.“All men” are said in that document to be created equal and to have been endowed with certain unalienable rights.All governments are alleged to have been instituted among men to secure those rights —— to protect them.Are these, then, American rights? Doubtless——but only American? Is it the British Government which is declared to have violated them? Unquestionably——but the British Government alone? And the revolution against tyranny and arrogance which is here implied ——is it a revolution which American independence from the mediocre majesty of George III will win or is there something more intended? —— something for all mankind? ——for all the world? In the old days when college undergraduates still read history, any undergraduate could have told you that these are not rhetorical questions: that they were, from the beginning, two opinions about the Declaration and that they were held by(among others)the two great men who had most to do with its composition and its adoption by the Congress.John Adams, who supported the Declaration with all his formidable powers, inclined to the view that it was just what is called itself: a declaration of American independence.Thomas Jefferson, who wrote it, held the opposite opinion: it was a revolutionary proclamation applicable to all mankind.“May it be the world”, he wrote to the citizens of Washington a few days before he died, “what I believe it will be: to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all, the signal of arousing men to burst the chains…” And he went on in reverberating words: “The mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs for a favored few, booted and spurred, ready to ride them by the grace of God.”
Moreover, these two great and famous men were not the only Presidents of the Republic to choose between the alternatives: A third, as great as either, speaking in Philadelphia at the darkest moment in our history —— bearing indeed the whole weight of that history on his shoulders as he spoke —— turned to the Declaration for guidance for himself and for his country and made his choice between the meanings.Mr.Lincoln had been making his way slowly eastward in February 1861 from Springfield to
Washington to take the oath of office as President of a divided people on the verge of Civil War.He had reached Philadelphia on the 21st of February where he had been told of the conspiracy to murder him in Baltimore as he passed through that city.He had gone to Independence Hall
before daylight on the 22nd.He had found a crowd waiting.He had spoken to them.He had often asked himself.Mr.Lincoln said, what great principle or idea it was which had held the 2 Union so long together.“It was not,” he said, as though replying directly to John Adams, “the mere matter of the separation from the mother country.”
It was something more.“Something in the Declaration,” they heard him say.“Something giving liberty not alone to the people of this country but hope to the world.” “It was that which gave promise that in due time the weights should be lifted from the shoulders of all men.”
Anyone else, any modern President certainly, would have said, as most of them regularly do, that his hope for the country was fixed in huge expenditures for arms, in the possession of
overwhelming power.Not Mr.Lincoln.Not Mr.Lincoln even at that desperate moment.His hope was fixed in a great affirmation of belief made almost a century before.It was fixed in the commitment of the American people, at the beginning of their history as a people, to “ a great principle or idea”: the principle or idea of human liberty —— of human liberty not for themselves alone but for mankind.It was a daring gamble of Mr.Lincoln’s —— but so too was Mr.Jefferson’s Declaration —— so was the cause which Mr.Jefferson’s Declaration had defined.Could a nation be founded on the belief in liberty? Could belief in liberty preserve it? Two American generations argued that issue but not ours —— not the generation of the celebrants of the 200th anniversary of that great event.We assume, I suppose, that Mr.Jefferson’s policy was right for him and right for Mr.Lincoln, because it was successful.But whatever we think about Mr.Lincoln’ view of the Declaration, whatever we believe about the Declaration in the past, in other men’s lives, in other men’s wars, we do not ask ourselves, as we celebrate its Bicentennial, what it is today, what it is to us.Our present President has never intimated by so much as a word that such a question might be relevant —— that it even exists.The Congress has not debated it.The state and Federal commissions charged with Bicentennial responsibility express no opinions.Only the generation of the young, so far as I am informed, has even mentioned it, and the present generation of the young has certain understanble prejudices, inherited from the disillusionments of recent years, which
color their comments…
Express your view that the nation brought into being by hat great document was, and had no choice but be, a revolutionary nation, and you will be reminded that, but for the accidental discovery of a piece of tape on a door latch, the President of the United States in the Bicentennial year would have been Richard Nixon.And so it will go until you are told at last that the American Revolution is a figure of obsolescent speech;that the Declaration has become a museum exhibit in the National
Archives;and that, as for the Bicentennial, it is a year-long commercial which ought to be turned off.Well, the indignation of the young is always admirable regardless of its verbal excesses —— far more admirable, certainly, than the indifference of the elders.But, unfortunately, it is the
indifference of the elders we have to consider.And not only because it is a puzzling, a paradoxical,indifference but because it is as disturbing as it is paradoxical.Does our indifference to the explicitly revolutionary purpose of the Declaration - our silence about Mr.Jefferson’s interpretation of that purpose —— mean that we no longer believe in that
2purpose —— no longer believe in human liberty? Hardly?...But if this is so, if we still believe in the cause of human liberty, why do we celebrate the anniversary of the document which defined it for us without a thought for the meaning of the definition, then or now? Why have we not heard from our representatives and our officials on his great theme?
Is it because, although the Republic continues to believe in human liberty for itself, it no longer hopes for it in the world? Because it no longer thinks such a hope “realistic”?...So far, indeed, is Mr.Jefferson’s revolution from being obsolete that it is now the only truly revolutionary force in the age we live in.And not despite the police states but because of them.In 1945, when e had driven the Nazis out of Europe and the Japanese out of the Pacific in the name of human freedom and human decency, we stood at the peak, not only of our power as a nation but of our greatness as a people.We were more nearly ourselves, our true selves as the inheritors of Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln, than we had ever been before.And yet within a few years of that tremendous triumph, of the unexampled generosity of our nuclear offer to the world, of the magnificence of the marshall Plan, we were lost in the hysterical fears and ignoble deceits of Joe McCarthy and his followers and had adopted, as our foreign policy, the notion that if we“contained” the Russian initiative, we would some how or other be better off ourselves than if we pursued our historic purpose as Jefferson conceived it.The result, as we now know, was disaster.And not only in Southeast Asia and Portugal and Africa but throughout the world, Containment put us in bed with every anti-Communist we could find including some of the most offensive despots then in business.It produced flagrantly subversive and shameful plots by American agencies against the duly elected governments of other countries.And it ended by persuading the new countries of the postwar world, the emerging nations, that he United States was to them and to their hopes what the Holy Alliance had been to us and ours 200
years before.I.Explain the following in your own words:
1.All governments are alleged to have been instituted among men to secure those rights - to protect them.2.In the old days when college undergraduates still read history…
(1)What isthe implication of this statement?
(2)How do you know?
3.… who had most to do with its composition and its adoption by the Congress.4.May it be to the world, what I believe it will be: to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all, the signal of arousing men to burst the chains…
5.The mass of mankind has not been born with saddles… by the grace of God.6.It was that which gave promise… from the shoulders of all men.37.It was a daring gamble… which Mr.Jefferson’s Declarationhad defined.(1)What does “daring gamble” refer to?
(2)What was the cause the Declarationhad defined?
8.Our present president … that it even exists.9.…you will be reminded… would have been Richard Nixon.10.… regardless of itsverbal excesses
11.So far is Mr.Jefferson’s revolution from being obsolete…but because of them.12.And it ended by persuading… to us and ours 200 years before.II.What is the message the speaker wants to put across?
III.Translate the following passage into English:
“主人翁意识”,在我看来,也就是“所有者的意识”。“主人翁意识”当然也是社会意识,而且,任何一种社会意识,都是由社会存在所决定。那么,产生此种“社会意识”的社会存在是什么呢?譬如说吧,在一个拥有1200 万元资产和1200 名职工的企业里,加入这是一家由职工等额持股的股份合作制企业,那就意味着每个职工都是拥有万元资产的主人翁。每个职工的“主人翁意识”也就由此而产生。山东诸城市委书记陈光曾提到过这样一组数据:某次对一国有企业的300 名职工以“如果看见有人偷企业的财产你会怎么办”为题,进行了一次问卷调查。回答“装作看不见”的220 人,回答“他偷我也偷”的67 人,回答“与他作斗争”的13 人。这是诸城4改制前对国有企业“主人翁意识”的一次定量调查结果。邓小平南巡之后,在市场经济问题上,姓“社”姓“资”的非议,是逐步销声匿迹了,然而,“左家庄”的炊烟不散。这些人很重要的一个理由——只有坚持国家所有制,职工才能产生“主人翁意识”。一副悲天悯人、为民请命的“革命动机”。而在传统体制中,企业自身的自主权都无从保证,还论什么职工的“主人翁意识”? 4
