翻译部分:

​This spirit of fair-play, which in the public schools, at any rate, is absorbed as the most inviolable of traditions, has stood our race in good stead in the professions, and especially in the administration of dependencies, where the obvious desire of the officials to deal justly and see fair-play in disputes between natives and Europeans has partly compensated for a want of sympathetic understanding, which has kept the English strangers in lands of alien culture.(William Ralph Inge)

​词语要点:

​1.public schools:在英国为私立公校,为教育上层阶级子女的寄宿学校,如伊顿(Eton)等校。但在美国则为公立学校。

​2.is absorbed:全神贯注,专心,神往。

​3.inviolable:不可侵犯的,神圣的。

​4.stand(或serve)one in stead:对人有用,有好用处。

​5.want:缺乏。

​6.which:为want的关系代名词。

​7.keep the English strangers in:使英国人在……始终陌生,不能融洽。

​译文:

​翻译书上的译文:

​这种公正的精神,至少在私立公校中是当做最为神圣不可侵犯的传统而加以全神贯注的。这种精神在人们的供职上,尤其是在属地统治上,对于英国民族是很有用的。当统治属地时,英国的官员抱着一种显然的愿望,想要公正地处理土人与欧人间的争执,而冀得到公平的解决,使英国人出在海外的异族文化中,因缺乏同情的谅解而格格不入的情形,多少获得了一点补偿。(威廉·拉尔夫·英奇)

​斯眉的译文:

​在公立学校,这种公平竞争的精神至少已经被视为最为神圣的传统,它不仅有助于职业发展,尤其有利于管控分歧。官员们显然希望以公平公正的方式解决原住民与欧洲移民的争端,这种愿望已经因对同情和理解的渴望而得到部分补偿,正是这一点,使英国外来者得以在陌生文化的土地上生存下来。(威廉·拉尔夫·英奇)

​原文:

​Last month, I decided to move out of my parents' place and start living on my own. I searched in the newspaper for apartment listings and found a place not too far from my work. The landlord showed me around the apartment, and because it suited my needs, I signed the rental agreement and paid a deposit, some of which I might get back when I move out. The apartment has two bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room, and kitchen. It also has a small utility room where I keep my washer and dryer. Right before I moved in, the landlord put in new carpet and had the walls painted, so it looks like a new place. The rent is $650 a month, not including utilities. I pay about $100 for gas, electricity, water, sewage, and Internet service. Unfortunately, the apartment complex doesn't allow pets, so my dog has to stay with my parents for now. I might get a roommate at some point to share expenses, but I haven't decided on that yet. The place looks a little empty because it isn't furnished, but for the time being, I only have the basics: a bed, a table, a small sofa in the living room, and a TV. It's not as liveable and cozy as my parents' place, but it will have to do for now.

​词汇练习:

​1.You have to pay a _______________ before you move it, and you might get part of it back if you keep the apartment in good condition.

​2.The ___________________ was turned off yesterday because we didn't pay our bill, so now we cannot use the TV or lights.

​  a.  gas

​  b.  water

​  c.  electricity

​3.I had to ________________ of my parent's place because they are selling their home.

​  a.  move in

​  b.  move around

​  c.  move out

​4.This apartment is very comfortable, and it really ____________ my needs because it's close to campus, and the neighborhood is quiet.

​5.I spoke with the ________________, and he said they are going to fix our bathroom later today because this is his responsibility.

​  a.  landlord

​  b.  tenant

​  c.  roommate

​6.I really like this apartment because it is already _________________ with a sofa, table, and chairs.

​deposit  2.c.  3.c.  4.suits  5.a.  6.furnished
