15、III.Please read the following poem and write a comment in about 300words(50 points)To Autumn SEASON of mists and mellow fruitfulness,Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;Conspiring with him how to load and blessWith fruit the vines that round the thatch-eaves run;To bend with apples the mossd cott
16、age-trees,And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;To swell the gourd,and plump the hazel shells With a sweet kernel;to set budding more,And still more,later flowers for the bees,Until they think warm days will never cease,For Summer has oer-brimmd their clammy cells.Who hath not seen thee oft a
17、mid thy store?Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find Thee sitting careless on a granary floor,Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind;Or on a half-reapd furrow sound asleep,Drowsd with the fume of poppies,while thy hook Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers;And sometimes like a gleane
18、r thou dost keepSteady thy laden head across a brook;Or by a cider-press,with patient look,Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours.Where are the songs of Spring?Ay,where are they?Think not of them,thou hast thy music too,-While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day,And touch the stubble-plain
19、s with rosy hue;Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mournAmong the river sallows,borne aloft Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn;Hedge-crickets sing;and now with treble softThe red-breast whistles from a garden-croft;And gathering swallows
20、twitter in the skies.答案:Main Content“To Autumn is a poem by English Romantic poet John Keats.The poemhas three eleven-line stanzas which describe a progression through theseason,from the late maturation of the crops to the harvest and to the lastdays of autumn when winter is nearing.The imagery is r
21、ichly achievedthrough the personification of Autumn,and the description of its bounty,itssights and sounds.ThemeThe work is often interpreted as an allegory of death.To Autumn describes,three different aspects of the season,itsfruitfulness,its labor and its ultimate destitution.Through the stanzas t
22、here isa progression from early autumn to mid autumn and then to the heralding ofwinter.Parallel to this,the poem depicts the day turning from morning toafternoon and into dusk.These progressions are joined with a shift from thetactile sense to that of sight and then of sound,creating a three partsy
23、mmetry.Throughout the poem,Autumn is personified as one whoconspires,who ripens fruit,who harvests and makes music.The first stanza of the poem represents Autumn as involved with thepromotion of natural processes,growth and ultimate maturation.In thisstanza the fruits are still ripening.The tactile
24、sense is suggested by theimagery of growth and gentle motion:swelling,bending and plumping.The second stanza presents the personification of Autumn as theharvester.There is a lack of definitive action,all motion being gentle.Theprogression through the day is revealed in actions that are all suggesti
25、ve ofthe drowsiness of afternoon.The last stanza contrasts Autumns sounds with those of Spring.Thesounds that are presented are the gentle sounds of the evening.Gnats wailand lambs bleat in the dusk.As night approaches within the final moments ofthe song,death is slowly approaching alongside of the
26、end of the year.Thetwittering swallows gather for departure,leaving the fields bare.In this stanzathe songs of autumn becomes a song about life in general.The references toSpring,the growing lambs and the migrating swallows remind the reader thatthe seasons are a cycle.The poem as a whole creates wi
27、thin the imagination an image ofdeath and a finality that is welcomed.To Autumn puts forth the idea thatthe progress of growth is no longer necessary as maturation is complete,andlife and death are in harmony.Along with this harmony,the placing of thecouplet before the end of each stanza reinforces
28、the theme of continuation.参考译文:1雾气洋溢、果实圆熟的秋,你和成熟的太阳成为友伴;你们密谋用累累的珠球,缀满茅屋檐下的葡萄藤蔓;使屋前的老树背负着苹果,让熟味透进果实的心中,使葫芦胀大,鼓起了榛子壳,好塞进甜核;又为了蜜蜂一次一次开放过迟的花朵,使它们以为日子将永远暖和,因为夏季早填满它们的粘巢。2谁不经常看见你伴着谷仓?在田野里也可以把你找到,你有时随意坐在打麦场上,让发丝随着簸谷的风轻飘;有时候,为罂粟花香所沉迷,你倒卧在收割一半的田垄,让镰刀歇在下一畦的花旁;或者像拾穗人越过小溪,你昂首背着谷袋,投下倒影,或者就在榨果架下坐几点钟,你耐心地瞧着徐徐滴下的酒浆
29、。3啊春日的歌哪里去了?但不要想这些吧,你也有你的音乐当波状的云把将逝的一天映照,以胭红抹上残梗散碎的田野,这时啊,河柳下的一群小飞虫就同奏哀音,它们忽而飞高,忽而下落,随着微风的起灭;篱下的蟋蟀在歌唱,在园中红胸的知更鸟就群起呼哨;而群羊在山圈里高声默默咩叫;丛飞的燕子在天空呢喃不歇。IV.Please read the following story and make a comment in about 500words(70 points)To Build a FireDay had broken cold and gray,exceedingly cold and gray,when
30、 theman turned aside from the main Yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank,where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat sprucetimberland.It was a steep bank,and he paused for breath at the top,excusingthe act to himself by looking at his watch.It was nine oclock.There was
31、nosun nor hint of sun,though there was not a cloud in the sky.It was a clearday,and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things,a subtlegloom that made the day dark,and that was due to the absence of sun.Thisfact did not worry the man.He was used to the lack of sun.It had been dayssi
32、nce he had seen the sun,and he knew that a few more days must pass beforethat cheerful orb,due south,would just peep above the sky-line and dipimmediately from view.The man flung a look back along the way he had come.The Yukonlay a mile wide and hidden under three feet of ice.On top of this ice were
33、 asmany feet of snow.It was all pure white,rolling in gentle undulations wherethe ice-jams of the freeze-up had formed.North and south,as far as his eyecould see,it was unbroken white,save for a dark hair-line that curved andtwisted from around the spruce-covered island to the south,and that curveda
34、nd twisted away into the north,where it disappeared behind another spruce-covered island.But all thisthe mysterious,far-reaching hair-line trail,the absence ofsun from the sky,the tremendous cold,and the strangeness and weirdness ofit allmade no impression on the man.It was not because he was long u
35、sedto it.He was a newcomer in the land,a chechaquo,and this was his firstwinter.The trouble with him was that he was without imagination.He wasquick and alert in the things of life,but only in the things,and not in thesignificances.Fifty degrees below zero meant eighty-odd degrees of frost.Such fact
36、 impressed him as being cold and uncomfortable,and that was all.Itdid not lead him to meditate upon his frailty as a creature of temperature,andupon mans frailty in general,able only to live within certain narrow limits ofheat and cold;and from there on it did not lead him to the conjectural field o
37、fimmortality and mans place in the universe.Fifty degrees below zero stoodfor a bite of frost that hurt and that must be guarded against by the use ofmittens,ear-flaps,warm moccasins,and thick socks.Fifty degrees belowzero was to him just precisely fifty degrees below zero.That there should beanythi
38、ng more to it than that was a thought that never entered his head.As he turned to go on,he spat speculatively.There was a sharp,explosive,crackle that startled him.He spat again.And again,in the air,before it could fall to the snow,the spittle crackled.He knew that at fiftybelow spittle crackled on
39、the snow,but this spittle had crackled in the air.Undoubtedly it was colder than fifty belowhow much colder he did notknow.But the temperature did not matter.He was bound for the old claim onthe left fork of Henderson Creek,where the boys were already.They hadcome over across the divide from the Ind
40、ian Creek country,while he hadcome the roundabout way to take a look at the possibilities of getting out logsin the spring from the islands in the Yukon.He would be in to camp by sixoclock;a bit after dark,it was true,but the boys would be there,a fire wouldbe going,and a hot supper would be ready.A
41、s for lunch,he pressed his handagainst the protruding bundle under his jacket.It was also under his shirt,wrapped up in a handkerchief and lying against the naked skin.It was theonly way to keep the biscuits from freezing.He smiled agreeably to himselfas he thought of those biscuits,each cut open an
42、d sopped in bacon grease,and each enclosing a generous slice of fried bacon.At the mans heels trotted a dog,a big native husky,the proper wolf-dog,gray-coated and without any visible or temperamental difference fromits brother,the wild wolf.The animal was depressed by the tremendous cold.It knew tha
43、t it was no time for travelling.Its instinct told it a truer tale thanwas told to the man by the mans judgment.In reality,it was not merelycolder than fifty below zero;it was colder than sixty below,than seventybelow.It was seventy-five below zero.Since the freezing-point is thirty-twoabove zero,it
44、meant that one hundred and seven degrees of frost obtained.The dog did not know anything about thermometers.Possibly in its brainthere was no sharp consciousness of a condition of very cold such as was inthe mans brain.But the brute had its instinct.It experienced a vague butmenacing apprehension th
45、at subdued it and made it slink along at the mansheels,and that made it question eagerly every unwonted movement of theman as if expecting him to go into camp or to seek shelter somewhere andbuild a fire.The dog had learned fire,and it wanted fire,or else to burrowunder the snow and cuddle its warmt
46、h away from the air.Once in a while the thought reiterated itself that it was very cold andthat he had never experienced such cold.As he walked along he rubbed hischeek-bones and nose with the back,of his mittened hand.He did thisautomatically,now and again changing hands.But rub as he would,theinst
47、ant he stopped his cheek-bones went numb,and the following instant theend of his nose went numb.He was sure to frost his cheeks;he knew that,and experienced a pang of regret that he had not devised a nose-strap of thesort Bud wore in cold snaps.Such a strap passed across the cheeks,as well,and saved
48、 them.But it didnt matter much,after all.What were frostedcheeks?A bit painful,that was all;they were never serious.Empty as the mans mind was of thoughts,he was keenly observant,andhe noticed the changes in the creek,the curves and bends and timber-jams,and always he sharply noted where he placed h
49、is feet.Once,coming around abend,he shied abruptly,like a startled horse,curved away from the placewhere he had been walking,and retreated everal paces back along the trail.The creek he knew was frozen clear to the bottom,no creek could containwater in that arctic winter,but he knew also that there
50、were springs thatbubbled out from the hillsides and ran along under the snow and on top theice of the creek.He knew that the coldest snaps never froze these springs,andhe knew likewise their danger.They were traps.They hid pools of waterunder the snow that might be three inches deep,or three feet.So
