5 WRITING THREE THANK-YOU LETTERS,Alex Haley,.,ALEX HALEY(19211992),American biographer,scriptwriter,and author,became famous with the publication of the novel,Roots:The Saga of an American Family,which traces his ancestry back to Africa and covers 7 American generations as they are taken slaves to the U.S.,.,THANKSGIVING HISTORY,Second most important holiday in the U.S.,celebrated in on the fourth Thursday in November.,associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America.In 1620 the ship,the,Mayflower,arrived,bringing about 102 people who today are usually called,Pilgrims,.,.,THANKSGIVING CELEBRATIONS,Thanksgiving dinner,Turkey,stuffing,mashed potatoes with gravy,sweet potatoes,cranberry sauce,sweet corn,various fall vegetables(mainly various kinds of squashes),and pumpkin pie,.,THANKSGIVING,Giving thanks,Saying grace(,谢恩祈祷,)before carving a turkey at Thanksgiving dinner,Pennsylvania,US.,1942,.,THANKSGIVING CELEBRATIONS,Vacation and travel:,Thanksgiving Break Thursday-Sunday,Parades,Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade in NYC,“National Thanksgiving Turkey Presentation”and“Presidential Pardoning”,Football and other sports,.,Now,lets get to business and learn about the text.,.,MAIN IDEA,By writing three“thank you”letters,the author realizes that human beings long for other peoples appreciation for their efforts.Therefore,he encourages people to“find the good-and praise it”.,.,WRITING THREE THANK-YOU LETTERS,It was 1943,during World War II,and I was a young U.S.coastguardsman.My ship,the USS,Murzim,had been,under way,for several days.,Most of her holds contained thousands of cartons of canned or dried foods.The other holds were loaded with five-hundred-pound bombs packed delicately in padded racks.Our destination was a big base on the island of Tulagi in the South Pacific.,I was one of the,Murzim,s several cooks and,quite the same as for folk ashore,this Thanksgiving morning had seen us busily preparing a traditional dinner featuring roast turkey.,Alex Haley,.,I decided first to go out on the,Murzim,s afterdeck for a breath of open air.,I made my way out there,breathing in great,deep draughts while walking slowly about,still wearing my white cooks hat.,Well,as any cook knows,its a lot of hard work to cook and serve a big meal,and clean up and,put,everything,away,.But finally,around sundown,we finished at last.,D R _ TEXT 2,.,D R _ TEXT 3,I,got to thinking,about Thanksgiving,of the Pilgrims,Indians,wild turkeys,pumpkins,corn on the cob,and the rest.,Yet my mind seemed to be in quest of something else some way that I could personally apply to the close of,Thanksgiving.,It must have taken me a half hour to sense that maybe some key to an answer could result fromreversing,the word“Thanksgiving”at least that suggested a verbal direction,“Giving thanks.”,.,Giving thanks as in praying,thanking God,I thought.Yes,of course.Certainly.,Yet my mind continued,turning,the idea,over,.,After a while,like a dawns brightening,a further answer did come that there were people to thank,people who had done so much for me that I could never possibly,repay,them.The embarrassing truth was Id always just accepted what theyd done,taken all of it for granted.,Not one time had I ever bothered to express to any of them so much as a simple,sincere“Thank you”.,D R _ TEXT 4,.,At least seven people had been particularly and lastingly helpful to me.I realized,swallowing hard,that about half of them had since died so they were forever beyond any possible expression of,gratitude,from me.The more I thought about it,the more ashamed I became.Then I pictured the three who were still alive and,within minutes,I was down in my cabin.,D R _ TEXT 5,.,Sitting at a table with writing paper and memories of things each had done,I tried composing genuine statements of heartfelt appreciation and gratitude to my dad,Simon A.Haley,a professor at the old Agricultural Mechanical Normal College in Pine Bluff,Arkansas;to my grandma,Cynthia Palmer,back in our little hometown of Henning,Tennessee;and to the Rev.Lonual Nelson,my grammar school principal,retired and living in Ripley,six miles north of Henning.,D R _ TEXT 6,.,The texts of my letters began something like,“Here,this Thanksgiving at sea,I find my thoughts upon how much you have done for me,but I have never stopped and said to you how much I feel the need to thank you”And briefly I recalled for each of them,specific,acts performed,on my behalf,.,D R _ TEXT 7,.,For instance,something uppermost about my father was how he had,impressed,upon me from boyhood to love books and reading.In fact,this graduated into a family habit of after-dinner quizzes at the table about books read most,D R _ TEXT 8,recently and new words learned.My love of books never,diminished,and later led me toward writing books myself.So many times I have felt a sadness when,exposed,to modern children so,immersed,in the electronic media that they have little or no awareness of the,marvelous,world to be discovered in books.,.,I reminded the Reverend Nelson how each morning he would open our little country towns grammar school with a prayer over his assembled students.,I told him that whatever positive things I had done since had been influenced at least in part by his morning school prayers.,D R _ TEXT 9,.,D R _ TEXT 10,In the letter to my grandmother,I reminded her of a dozen ways she used to teach me how to tell the truth,to share,and to be forgiving and considerate of others.I thanked her for the years of eating her good cooking,the equal of which I had not found since.Finally,I thanked her simply for having,sprinkled,my life with stardust.,.,Before I slept,my three letters went into our ships office mail sack.They got mailed when we reached Tulagi Island.,We unloaded cargo,reloaded with something else,then again we put to sea in the routine familiar to us,and as the days became weeks,my little personal experience receded.Sometimes,when we were at sea,a mail ship would rendezvous and bring us mail from home,which,of course,we,accorded,topmost priority.,D R _ TEXT 11,.,Every time the ships loudspeaker rasped,“Attention!Mail call!”two hundred-odd shipmates came pounding up on deck and clustered about the two seamen,standing by those precious bulging gray sacks.They were alternately pulling out fistfuls of letters and barking,successive,names of sailors who were,in turn,shouting back“Here!Here!”amid the pushing.,D R _ TEXT 12,.,One“mail call”brought me responses from Grandma,Dad,and the Reverend Nelson,and my reading of,D R _ TEXT 13,their letters left me not only astonished but more humbled than before.,.,Rather than saying they would forgive that I hadnt previously thanked them,instead,for Petes sake,they were thanking me for having remembered,for having considered they had done anything so exceptional.,Always the college professor,my dad had carefully avoided anything he considered too sentimental,so I knew how moved he was to write me that,after having helped educate many young people,he now felt that his best results included his own son.,D R _ TEXT 15,.,The Reverend Nelson wrote that his decades as a“simple,old-fashioned principal”had ended with schools,undergoing,such,swift,changes that he had retired in self-doubt.“I heard more of what I had done wrong than what I did right,”he said,adding that my letter had brought him welcome reassurance that his career had been,appreciated,.,D R _ TEXT 16,.,A glance at Grandmas familiar handwriting brought back,in a flash,memories of standing alongside her white rocking chair,watching her“setting down”some letter to relatives.,Character by character,Grandma would slowly accomplish one word,then the next,so that a finished page would consume hours.,I wept over the page representing my Grandmas recent hours invested in expressing her loving gratefulness to me,whom she used to diaper!,D R _ TEXT 17,Much later,retired from the Coast Guard and trying to make a living as a writer,I never forgot how those three“thank you”letters gave me an insight into how most human beings,go about,longing,in secret,for more of their fellows to express appreciation for their efforts.,.,Now,approaching another Thanksgiving,I have asked myself what will I wish for all who are reading this,for our nation,indeed for our whole world since,quoting,a good and wise friend of mine,“In the end we are mightily and merely people,each with similar needs.”First,I wish for us,of course,the simple common sense to achieve world peace,that being paramount for the very survival of our kind.,And there is something else I wish so strongly that I have had this line printed across the bottom of all my stationery:“Find the good and praise it.”,D R _ TEXT 18,.,D R _ S_,MOST OF HER,Why was it necessary for the writer to offer so many details of his voyage?,The details indicate that this Thanksgiving was unusual,explaining why the writer felt the need to celebrate it in an unusual way.,Most of her holds contained thousands of cartons of canned or dried foods.The other holds were loaded with five-hundred-pound bombs packed delicately in padded racks.Our destination was a big base on the island of Tulagi in the South Pacific.,.,D R _ S_,THIS THANKSGIVING,.this Thanksgiving morning had seen us busily preparing a traditional dinner featuring roast turkey.,Paraphrase this part.,on this Thanksgiving morning we were busy preparing a traditional dinner which included mainly roast turkey.,“Feature”here means“to include as a special part”.,.,D R _ S_,I MADE MY WAY,Analyze the structure of the sentence.,在这个长句中有三个,-ing,分词,：breathing、walking,和,wearing,。,breathing,为,made my way out,的伴随状语,，walking,与,while,连用表示与,breathing,这一动作同时发生,，wearing,为,walking,的伴随状语。,I made my way out there,breathing in great,deep draughts while walking slowly about,still wearing my white cooks hat.,Translate the sentence into Chinese.,我信步走去，一边深深呼吸着空气，一边慢慢地踱着步，头上仍戴着那顶白色的厨师帽。,.,大概过了半个小时我才意识到，问题的关键也许在于把,Thanksgiving,这个词前后颠倒一下，那样一来至少文字好懂了,：Giving thanks,。,D R _ S_,IT MUST HAVE TAKEN,It must have taken me a half hour to sense that maybe some key to an answer could result from reversing the word“Thanksgiving”at least that suggested a verbal direction,“Giving thanks.”,Translate this sentence into Chinese.,.,D R _ S_,NOT ONE TIME,What can we infer from this sentence?,The author took all for granted and never expressed any appreciation.The sentence is in inverted order.,Not one time had I ever bothered to express to any of them so much as a simple,sincere“Thank you”.,.,D R _ S_,I TOLD HIM THAT,I told him that whatever positive things I had done since had been influenced at least in part by his morning school prayers.,Analyze the structure of the sentence.,whatever positive morning school prayer,是宾语从句。,I had done since,是定语从句，修饰,whatever positive things;since,为副词，修饰,had done;in part,在这里意为,partly,。,.,D R _ S_,AND MY READING,and my reading of their letters left me not only astonished but more humbled than before.,我读了信，既觉得震惊，又深感卑微。,Analyze the structure of this part.,leave,常用于结构,：leave sb.+adj./past participle，adj./past participle（,此处为,not only astonished but more humbled than before,）,为宾语补足语,。,Translate this sentence into Chinese.,.,D R _ S_,RATHER THAN SAYING,Rather than saying they would forgive that I hadnt previously thanked them,instead,for Petes sake,they were thanking me for having remembered,for having considered they had done anything so exceptional.,Paraphrase the sentence.,They didnt say they would forgive me for not thanking them,but instead,for Gods sake,they thanked me for having remembered what they had done and for having thought they had done something special to me.,.,D R _ S_,A GLANCE AT GRANDMA,A glance at Grandmas familiar handwriting brought back in a flash memories of standing alongside her white rocking chair,watching her“setting down”some letter to relatives.,What does the sentence mean?,His grandmas handwriting reminded the writer of many sweet memories of his childhood with her.“Setting down”here means“writing”.,.,D R _ S_,I WEPT OVER THE PAGEI wept over the page representing my Grandmas recent hours invested in expressing her loving gratefulness to me.,Paraphrase the sentence.,I was moved to
