五言古诗
张九龄
感遇其一
孤鸿海上来, 池潢不敢顾;
侧见双翠鸟, 巢在三珠树。
矫矫珍木巅, 得无金丸惧?
美服患人指, 高明逼神恶。
今我游冥冥, 弋者何所慕?
Zhang Jiuling
THOUGHTS I
A lonely swan from the sea flies,
To alight on puddles it does not deign.
Nesting in the poplar of pearls
It spies and questions green birds twain:
"Don't you fear the threat of slings,
Perched on top of branches so high?
Nice clothes invite pointing fingers,
High climbers god's good will defy.
Bird-hunters will crave me in vain,
For I roam the limitless sky."
学习任何语言都需要大量阅读。学习英语也需要大量阅读。英语学得好的人,一般说来,都读过相当数量的书;反之,也只有读得比较多的人,才能真正学好英语。这个道理虽然简单,但不少学习英语的人却未必明白。时下,很多人都热衷于做题目,以为这是学习英语的正确途径。结果做的练习册一本又一本,试题集一套又一套,做得头昏眼花,兴趣全无,英语水平却并没有实质性提高。
学习英语的确要做适当练习。但我认为,归根结底,好的英语是“读”出来的,不是做练习“做”出来的。“读”出来的英语是地道的、自然的,因为使用者依持的是“语感”;“做”出来的英语往往流于生硬,因为使用者是依赖“语法规则”硬“做”的。
一谈到阅读,人们便不由自主地想到“苦读”。如果把这两个字理解成读书需要花功夫,倒也有理。但如果认为阅读一定是很苦的,很少有欢乐,那就大错特错了。然而,目前的很多英语学习者都视英语阅读为苦事,常常是不得已而为之。教师让学生读点英语材料,就像给孩童吃中药,需要捏着鼻子硬灌下去。自然效果也不会好。
阅读英语应当轻松愉快,也可以轻松愉快。要做到这一点,阅读材料的选择是首要的`。也就是说,要选择生动、有趣、富有吸引力而又能启发心智的材料(或书籍)。这类书具有以下几个共同特点:一、可读性很强,让人立即产生阅读的欲望,一旦上手,就放不下来了,不会感到学英语是沉重的负担了。二、容易读,不大会产生阅读障碍。三、有助于扩大知识面,提高文化素养。
至于阅读的方法,我主张一口气读下去,即便有个别单词挡道,只要不影响整体内容的理解,就不必停下来查词典,更没有必要见到好句子停下来就抄。因为那样会打断思路,影响阅读速度,甚至扼杀阅读的兴趣。不要以为读完一本书没有记下某个词语或某个句子就是一无所得。阅读的主要目的在于语言吸收上的“潜移默化”,在于获得语感。阅读需要“量”,没有大量的语言“输入”,是难以学好英语的。而我们国内的英语学习者恰恰语言输入量太少,当然输出量就更少。结果往往事倍功半。
I've opened the curtain of my east window here above the computer, and I sit now in a holy theater before a sky-blue stage. A little cloud above the neighbor's trees resembles Jimmy Durante's nose for a while, then becomes amorphous as it slips on north. Other clouds follow, big and little and tiny on their march toward whereness. Wisps of them lead or droop because there must always be leading and drooping.
The trees seem to laugh at the clouds while yet reaching for them with swaying branches. Trees must think that they are real, rooted, somebody, and that perhaps the clouds are only tickled water which sometimes blocks their sun. But trees are clouds, too, of green leaves—clouds that only move a little. Trees grow and change and dissipate like their airborne cousins.
And what am I but a cloud of thoughts and feelings and aspirations? Don't I put out tentative mists here and there? Don't I occasionally appear to other people as a ridiculous shape of thoughts without my intending to? Don't I drift toward the north when I feel the breezes of love and the warmth of compassion?
If clouds are beings, and beings are clouds, are we not all well advised to drift, to feel the wind tucking us in here and plucking us out there? Are we such rock-hard bodily lumps as we imagine?
Drift, let me. Sing to the sky, will I. One in many, are we. Let us breathe the breeze and find therein our roots in the spirit.
I close the curtain now, feeling broader, fresher. The act is over. Applause is sweeping through the trees.
拉开了房间东边电脑上方的窗帘,感觉自己仿佛身处一个神圣的剧场,天蓝的舞台展现在面前。有好一会儿,邻居家树丛上飘着一朵像杰米·杜兰特那大鼻子形状的云朵,但渐渐云朵就往北飘移,大鼻子也就散了状。周围的云,大的、小的、丁点儿的都随之往不知什么地方飘走了。缕缕白云或前行,或散去,这最自然不过了。
树梢随风轻摆,像往上攀附云朵,也像在嘲笑云朵。树肯定在想自己才是实实在在、稳稳扎根的重量级人物,而云朵只不过是积聚的水珠,只会偶尔挡住太阳的光辉。其实树也是一种云,是绿叶做的云,是不怎么动的云。树会成长、变化、老去,就跟天空的浮云一样。
我不也是一朵云吗?一朵怀着种种想法、感受和抱负的云。我不是也到处作尝试,制造一个个雾团吗?我的那些异想天开不也常不经意地在人面前变成了一团奇形怪状的云吗?在感受到爱的微风和怜悯的温暖时,我不也像一朵朝北畅快游走的浮云吗?
若浮云如人,人亦如浮云,我们是否都应该飘,感受风的力量,让我们一时扎根这里,一时又把我们拔起吹走?难道我们真的就如自己想像中的那样稳如磐石吗?
飘吧,让我!向天高歌,我要。人海里的过客,我们是。就让我们一起呼吸微风的气息,在其中寻找我们精神的根。
合上窗帘,感觉心胸更开阔,头脑更清晰。帷幕降下,树丛间掌声雷动。

塞上曲
蝉鸣空桑林, 八月萧关道;
出塞复入塞, 处处黄芦草。
从来幽并客, 皆向沙场老;
莫学游侠儿, 矜夸紫骝好。
又作共尘沙

AT A BORDER-FORTRESS
Cicadas complain of thin mulberry-trees
In the Eighth-month chill at the frontier pass.
Through the gate and back again, all along the road,
There is nothing anywhere but yellow reeds and grasses
And the bones of soldiers from You and from Bing
Who have buried their lives in the dusty sand.
...Let never a cavalier stir you to envy
With boasts of his horse and his horsemanship
language of music
A painter hangs his or her finished pictures on a wall, and everyone can see it. A composer writes a work, but no one can hear it until it is performed. Professional singers and players have great responsibilities, for the composer is utterly dependent on them. A student of music needs as long and as arduous a training to become a performer as a medical student needs to become a doctor. Most training is concerned with technique, for musicians have to have the muscular proficiency of an athlete or a ballet dancer. Singers practice breathing every day, as their vocal chords would be inadequate without controlled muscular support. String players practice moving the fingers of the left hand up and down, while drawing the bow to and fro with the right arm-two entirely different movements.
Singers and instruments have to be able to get every note perfectly in tune. Pianists are spared this particular anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting for them, and it is the piano tuner’s responsibility to tune the instrument for them. But they have their own difficulties; the hammers that hit the string have to be coaxed not to sound like percussion, and each overlapping tone has to sound clear.
This problem of getting clear texture is one that confronts student conductors: they have to learn to know every note of the music and how it should sound, and they have to aim at controlling these sound with fanatical but selfless authority.
Technique is of no use unless it is combined with musical knowledge and understanding. Great artists are those who are so thoroughly at home in the language of music that they can enjoy performing works written in any century.
