Unit 1 Cultural relics
琥珀屋是一座通体由琥珀和名贵珠宝装饰而成的、极端奢华的建筑,曾在18—20世纪一度被称作“世界第八大奇迹”。第二次世界大战结束后离奇失踪。
The Amber(琥珀) Room
King Frederick Ⅰ,the Prussian King,once received a piece of amber furniture as a wedding gift.He got to like amber art and came up with the idea of having a unique amber artwork created for himself.In 1701 he ordered the artists to create a big Amber Room which took them over ten years.
When Frederick died,his son Frederick William Ⅰ came into power,who compared to his father was not an art lover.He created an army double the size of his father's,getting the nickname ( 绰号) “Soldier King”.When he visited Peter the Great in 1716,he was reminded that Peter had great interest in the Amber Room.Soon,Peter informed his wife in a letter that he had received an amber artwork as a gift.
The original Amber Room had 12 wall pieces,each of which was 13 feet tall,resulting in a total height of 16 feet.The room in the Winter Palace in Tsarskoje Selo was much larger.It measured 33 feet by 33 feet equaling 196 feet total wall length.Later,Catherine Ⅱ and her team added some other pieces to the room and she chose it as her favorite room.
The Amber Room existed in this final form from 1763 until 1941 and only a few people had the pleasure to be able to see it.The entire decoration (装饰) of the Amber Room left a very warm impression on the visitors,no matter if it was under sunlight or artificial light.Most likely the Amber Room reminded one of marble (大理石),but without the cold impression of marble.When the daylight was shining through the wide windows,it replaced hundreds of lighting candles and created thousands of reflections in the mirrors.This light made the multi-colored amber walls shine more beautiful than gold and created a deeply lasting impression never forgotten by any visitor.

IN SEARCH OF THE AMBER(琥珀) ROOM
Frederick William Ⅰ,the King of Prussia,could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history①.This gift was the Amber Room,which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it②.The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown colour like honey(蜂蜜).The design of the room was in the fancy(奇特的) style③ popular in those days.It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels(珠宝,宝石),which took the country's best artists about ten years to make.
寻找琥珀屋
普鲁士国王威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有这样一段令人惊讶的历史。这件礼物就是琥珀屋,它之所以有这个名字,是因为造它用了好几吨的琥珀。选出来的琥珀色彩艳丽,呈现蜂蜜一样的黄褐色。琥珀屋的设计采用了当时流行的别致的建筑式样。它也是一件用金银珠宝装饰起来的珍品,一批国家最优秀的艺术家用了大约十年的时间才将其完成。
[助读讲解] ①could never have done 绝不可能……(用于对过去情况的推测);that 引导宾语从句,作imagined的宾语。②which 引导非限制性定语从句,修饰the Amber Room;其中又包含一个because引导的原因状语从句。③in the...style 以……的风格。
In fact,the room was not made to be a gift.It was designed for④ the palace of Frederick Ⅰ.However,the next King of Prussia,Frederick William Ⅰ,to whom the amber room belonged(属于),decided not to keep it.In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great.In return,the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers.So the Amber Room became part of the Czar's winter palace in St Petersburg.About four metres long,the room served as⑤ a small reception hall for important visitors.
事实上,这个琥珀屋并不是作为礼物来建造的。它是为腓特烈一世的宫殿而设计(制作)的。然而,下一位普鲁士国王,腓特烈·威廉一世,这个琥珀屋的主人却决定不要它了。在1716年,他把琥珀屋送给了彼得大帝。作为回赠,沙皇则送给他一队自己最好的士兵。这样,琥珀屋就成了沙皇在圣彼得堡冬宫的一部分。这间琥珀屋长约四米,被用作接待重要来宾的小型会客室。
[助读讲解] ④be designed for 为……而设计。⑤serve as 充当。
Later,Catherine Ⅱ had the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers.She told her artists to add more details to it.In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted.Almost six hundred candles lit⑥ the room,and its mirrors and pictures shone like gold.Sadly,although the Amber Room was considered one of the wonders of the world,it is now missing⑦.
后来,叶卡捷琳娜二世派人把琥珀屋搬到圣彼得堡郊外她避暑的宫殿中。她叫她的工匠在原来设计的基础上增添了更多精细的装饰。1770年,这间琥珀屋按照她的要求完成了。将近600支蜡烛照亮了这个房间,里面的镜子和图画就像金子一样闪闪发光。可悲的是,尽管琥珀屋被认为是世界上的一大奇迹之一,可是现在它却消失了。
[助读讲解] ⑥lit v.点亮,照亮(light的过去式)。⑦missing adj.消失的,不见的。
In September 1941,the Nazi army was near St Petersburg.This was a time when the two countries were at war⑧.Before the Nazis could get to the summer palace,the Russians were able to remove some furniture⑨ and small art objects from the Amber Room.However,some of the Nazis secretly stole the room itself.In less than two days 100,000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven wooden boxes.There is no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for K?nigsberg,which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea.After that,what happened to the Amber Room remains a mystery⑩.
1941年9月,纳粹德国的军队逼近圣彼得堡。这是在两国交战的时期。在纳粹分子到达夏宫之前,俄罗斯人只能把琥珀屋里的一些家具和小件艺术饰品搬走。可是琥珀屋本身却被一些纳粹分子偷偷地运走了。在不到两天的时间里,10万个部件装进了27个木箱。毫无疑问,这些箱子后来被装上火车运往哥尼斯堡,当时德国在波罗的海边的一个城市。从那以后,琥珀屋的去处便成了一个谜。
[助读讲解] ⑧when引导定语从句,修饰先行词a time,when在从句中作状语。⑨furniture n.家具(总称),为不可数名词。⑩what 引导主语从句,且在从句中作主语;remain link-v.保持,继续,其后常接名词或形容词作表语。
Recently,the Russians and Germans have built a new Amber Room at the summer palace.By? studying old photos of the former Amber Room,they have made the new one look like the old one.In 2003 it was ready for the people of St Petersburg when they celebrated the 300th birthday of their city?.
近来,俄罗斯人和德国人已经在夏宫建起了一个新的琥珀屋。通过研究琥珀屋原来的照片,他们建造的新琥珀屋样子和旧的看起来非常像。2003年,圣彼得堡人民就用它来庆祝该市建成300周年。
[助读讲解] ?此处by意为“通过(某种手段/方法)”。?when 引导时间状语从句。

[名师点津]
be worth doing是用动名词的主动形式表示被动含义;表示“很/非常”值得做要用well而不能用very修饰。
(教材P1)Frederick William Ⅰ,the King of Prussia,could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history.
普鲁士国王威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有这样一段令人惊讶的历史。
【要点提炼】 本句中could never have imagined意为“不可能想到”。英语中could have done意为“本可以……;本来能够……”,表示某事过去有可能发生,但事实上并没有发生。couldn't have done表示“过去不可能做过,一定没有做过”。
(1)must have done表示对过去情况肯定性的推测,“过去一定做过某事”。
(2)should/ought to have done表示“过去本应该做某事”,而实际上没有做。
(3)shouldn't/oughtn't to have done表示“过去本不应该做某事”,而实际上做了。
(4)needn't have done表示“过去本不必做某事”,但事实上已做过了。
①He knew little about Japanese,so he couldn't have learned it.

(教材P2)Later,Catherine Ⅱ had the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers.
后来,叶卡捷琳娜二世派人把琥珀屋搬到圣彼得堡郊外她避暑的宫殿中。
【要点提炼】 had the Amber Room moved是“have+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,the Amber Room与动词move之间为被动关系,故用过去分词作宾补。
have/get sth.done可以表示:使某事被做(主语有意识的行为,可能是主语自己做,也可能是让别人做);遭遇/经历(此事违背主语的意愿)。若宾语和宾补之间是主动关系则用:
(1)have sb.do sth.(do强调做某事这一事实)
(2)have sb./sth.doing(doing强调持续进行某一动作)
①There's something wrong with my computer,so I have to have/get it repaired.
我的电脑出了问题,所以我得让人修理一下。
②He was very funny and had us laughing (laugh) all the way.
他非常滑稽,一路上逗得我们笑个不停。
③Unfortunately,he had his right leg injured (injure) during the training.
不幸的是,他在训练中把右腿弄伤了。
④The boss had me set (set) down what people present at the meeting said.
老板让我记录下出席会议的人员所说的话。
[名师点津]
have sth.done相当于make/get sth.done;不管“have sth.done”结构表示何种意义,sth.与done之间都存在着逻辑上的动宾关系。
(教材P2)There is no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for K?nigsberg,which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea.
毫无疑问,这些箱子后来被装上火车运往哥尼斯堡,当时德国在波罗的海边的一个城市。
【要点提炼】 “There is no doubt that...”是常用句型结构,意为“毫无疑问……”,其中doubt是名词,其后的that从句是doubt的同位语从句,对doubt起补充说明作用。
(1)doubt用作名词时,在肯定句中其后用whether引导同位语从句,否定句或疑问句中则用that引导。
(2)doubt用作动词时,在肯定句中其后多用whether或if引导宾语从句,否定句或疑问句中则用that引导。
①There is no doubt that they will agree with you on this matter.毫无疑问,他们在这件事上会同意你的。
②There is some doubt whether he can win the first prize.他是否能赢得一等奖还有些疑问。
③I doubt whether/if he will continue to work here.
我怀疑他是否会继续在这里工作。
④I don't doubt that he will win the competition.
我相信他会赢得这场比赛。
1.(教材P1)Frederick William Ⅰ,the King of Prussia,could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history.
【分析】 主句的主语是Frederick William Ⅰ,其后的the King of Prussia是主语的同位语,that引导的是宾语从句。
【翻译】 普鲁士国王威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有这样一段令人惊讶的历史。
2.(教材P1)This gift was the Amber Room,which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it.
【分析】 句中which引导的是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the Amber Room;because引导的是原因状语从句。
【翻译】 这件礼物就是琥珀屋,它之所以有这个名字,是因为建造它用了好几吨的琥珀。
3.(教材P1)It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels,which took the country's best artists about ten years to make.
【分析】 句中which引导的是非限制性定语从句,先行词是a treasure,引导词在定语从句中作主语。decorated with gold and jewels是过去分词短语作定语,相当于定语从句 which was decorated with gold and jewels。
【翻译】 它也是一件用金银珠宝装饰起来的珍品,一批国家最优秀的艺术家用了大约十年的时间才把将其完成。
4.(教材P2)There is no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for K?nigsberg,which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea.
【分析】 句中that引导的是同位语从句,which引导的是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词K?nigsberg。
【翻译】 毫无疑问,这些箱子后来被装上火车运往哥尼斯堡,当时德国在波罗的海边的一个城市。

Section Ⅲ Grammar——限制性和非限制性定语从句
语 境 自 主 领 悟
先观察原句 后自主感悟
1.This gift was the Amber Room,which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it.2.The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow?brown colour like honey.3.This was a time when the two countries were at war.4.However,the next King of Prussia,Frederick WilliamⅠ,to whom the amber room belonged,decided not to keep it.5.Later,Catherine Ⅱ had the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers. 1.例句1中的which引导的是非限制性定语从句,先行词为the Amber Room;例句4中的to whom为“介词+关系代词” 引导的是非限制性定语从句,先行词为Frederick WilliamⅠ。2.例句2中的which引导的是限制性定语从句,修饰先行词The amber;例句3中when引导的是限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a time;例句5中where引导的是限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a palace。3.在形式上非限制性定语从句与限制性定语从句的区别在于:关系词前是否有逗号。
一、定语从句的种类
根据定语从句与先行词之间关系的紧密程度,我们将定语从句分为限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句两种。
1.限制性定语从句
限制性定语从句是先行词在意义上不可缺少的定语,用于修饰和限定先行词。如果去掉,主句的意思就不完整。这种从句和主句的关系十分密切,两者之间不用逗号分开;关系代词在从句中作宾语时可以省略。引导限制性定语从句的关系代词有who,whom,whose,that,which,as;关系副词有where,when,why。
This is the computer (that/which) he bought for his son yesterday.
这是他昨天为儿子买的电脑。
I will show you to the supermarket where you can find everything you want.
我带你去一家超市,在那里你能找到你想要的一切东西。
2.非限制性定语从句
非限制性定语从句和主句的关系不是十分密切,只是对先行词或主句作些附加说明,如果去掉,主句的意思仍然完整。这种从句和主句之间往往用逗号分开。引导非限制性定语从句的关系词与引导限制性定语从句的关系词略有不同。除that和why不能引导非限制性定语从句外,其他都可以。
He is English,which I know from his accent.
他是英国人,那是我通过他的口音知道的。
This is our headmaster,who I think has something important to tell you.
这是我们的校长,我认为他有一些重要事情要告诉你。
[即时训练1] 用适当的关系词填空
①Holly,who is from Australia,has a good command of Chinese.
②The dictionary,which our teacher bought yesterday,is helpful to us.
③I am looking forward to the day when my daughter can read this book and know my feelings for her.
二、限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句的区别
1.形式不同
限制性定语从句和主句之间没有逗号;非限制性定语从句必须用逗号与主句隔开。
Here is the man who has been punished by the boss.
这就是那个被老板惩罚的人。(限制性定语从句)
The project,which lasted three years,cost no less than $1 billion.
这个工程历时三年,耗资多达十亿美元。(非限制性定语从句)
2.先行词不同
限制性定语从句的先行词只能是一个名词或代词,而非限制性定语从句的先行词可以是一个词,也可以是整个主句。试比较:
This is the best novel that I have ever read.
这是我曾经看过的最好的小说。(限制性定语从句,先行词是novel)
The novel,which I read last night,is very interesting.
我昨天晚上看过那部小说了,它非常有意思。(非限制性定语从句,先行词为novel)
The novel is very interesting,which makes me very excited.
那部小说很有意思,这让我很兴奋。(非限制性定语从句,which指代前面整句话的内容)
3.关系词的使用情况不同
(1)that,why不可用于引导非限制性定语从句
指物时要用which代替that,for which代替why。
Most people didn't vote for him,which disappointed him.
大多数人没有投票支持他,这使他感到失望。
I have told them the reason,for which I changed my mind.
我已经告诉了他们我改变主意的原因。
(2)关系代词替代情况不同
①关系代词whom在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可用who代替,但在非限制性定语从句中作宾语时不可用who代替。
This is the man (whom/who/that) we are talking about.
这就是我们正在谈论的那个人。(限制性定语从句)
The young man had a new girlfriend,whom he wanted to impress.
这位年轻人新交了一个女朋友,他想给她留下印象。(非限制性定语从句)
②在限制性定语从句中,先行词指人时可以用that引导,但在非限制性定语从句中先行词指人时,关系代词只能用who或whom。
She has a younger brother,who is an English teacher.
她有一个弟弟,他是一名英语老师。
(3)关系代词省略情况不同
关系代词在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可省略,而非限制性定语从句的所有关系代词均不可省略。
This is a good film (which/that) I saw a few days ago.
这是我几天前看过的一部好影片。(限制性定语从句)
The summer holiday,which we're looking forward to,is drawing near.
我们盼望的暑假就要来了。(非限制性定语从句)
[即时训练2] 用适当的关系词填空
①Until now,we have raised 50,000 pounds for the poor children,which is quite unexpected.
②The exact year which/that Angela and her family spent together in China was 2018.
③Can you tell me the reason why he was absent yesterday?
三、as和which引导非限制性定语从句时的区别
1.as引导非限制性定语从句时,先行词一般为整个主句;而which引导非限制性定语从句时,先行词既可以是整个主句,又可以是主句的一部分。
As we all know,Lu Xun is a great writer.
众所周知,鲁迅是一位伟大的作家。
He failed in the experiment,which was unexpected.
他实验失败了,这是没有料到的。
2.as引导的从句位置比较灵活,可位于先行词之前、之中和之后,而which引导的从句仅能位于先行词之后。
He is a cheat,as everyone can see.
每个人都看得出来,他是个骗子。
3.as引导从句时常译为“正如”,而which常译为“这;那”。常用句型有:as we all know,as is known to all,as everybody can see,as is expected等。
He did the experiment successfully,as had been expected.
正如期望的那样,他实验做得非常成功。
As we all know,paper was first made in China.
正如大家所知,纸是中国发明的。

Section Ⅳ Using Language
A FACT OR AN OPINION?
What is a fact? Is it something that people believe①? No.A fact is anything that can be proved.For example,it can be proved that China has more people than any other② country in the world.This is a fact.
事实还是看法?
什么是事实呢?是不是人们所相信的就是事实呢?不是。事实是可以证实的信息。举例来说,中国人口比世界上其他任何一个国家的人口都多,这是可以得到证实的,这就是事实。
[助读讲解] ①that引导定语从句,修饰something。②more...than any other...为比较级形式,但表达最高级的含义。
Then what is an opinion? An opinion is what someone believes is true but has not been proved③.So an opinion is not good evidence(根据;证据) in a trial.For example,it is an opinion if you say “Cats are better pets than dogs”.It may be true,but it is difficult to prove.Some people may not agree with④ this opinion but they also cannot prove that they are right.
那么,什么是看法呢?看法是人们相信是真实的但是未经证实。因此在审判中,看法不是强有力的证据。举例来说,如果你说:“猫作为宠物比狗好。”这就是看法,这个看法可能是正确的,但是它难以被证实。有些人可能不同意这种看法。但是他们也不能证明他们是正确的。
[助读讲解] ③what 引导表语从句,其中someone believes为插入语。④agree with 赞成,同意,与……一致,(食物、气候等)适合某人。
In a trial(审判),a judge must decide which eyewitnesses to believe and which not to believe.The judge does not consider what each eyewitness(目击者;证人) looks like or where that person lives or works⑤.He/She only cares about whether the eyewitness has given true information,which must be facts rather than opinions⑥.This kind of information is called evidence.
在审判中,法官必须断定哪些证人可以相信,哪些证人不能相信。法官并不考虑证人的长相如何,也不考虑这个人住在哪里,在哪儿工作。他(她)关心的只是目击者是否提供了真实的信息,这些信息必须是事实而不是个人观点或看法。这种信息就叫作证据。
[助读讲解] ⑤or连接由what和where引导的两个从句,作consider的并列宾语。⑥rather than 而不是,whether引导的从句作cares about的宾语,which引导非限制性定语从句。

(教材P5)He/She only cares about whether the eyewitness has given true information,which must be facts rather than opinions.
他/她关心的只是目击者是否提供了真实的信息,这些信息必须是事实而不是个人观点或看法。

一天,他正在一家二手家具店里逛,这时他突然在众多不同的花瓶和首饰中看见了一个很奇特的东西。
【要点提炼】 be doing...when...意为“正在做……这时(突然)……”,when在句中作并列连词。相当于and then,and at that time。
be about to do...when... 正要做……这时……
be on the point of doing...when...
正要做……这时……
had just done...when... 刚做完……这时……
①I was about to leave when it began to rain.

(教材P5)For example,it can be proved that China has more people than any other country in the world.
举例来说,中国人口比世界上其他任何一个国家的人口都多,这是可以得到证实的。
【要点提炼】 句中“it can be proved that...”为“it + be+过去分词+that...”结构。在该结构中,it为形式主语,that从句为真正的主语。
英语中把主语从句后置,同时把形式主语it放在主语位置的常见句型有:
(1)It is+过去分词(reported,believed,said,announced等) +主语从句 (该结构可与“Sb./Sth.+ be+过去分词+to do...”结构相互转换)
(2)It+不及物动词(seem,happen,turn out,appear等) +主语从句
(3)It is+名词词组(a pity,a fact,a wonder,an honour等) +主语从句
(4)It is +adj.(clear,natural,obvious,possible,likely等) +主语从句
①It is reported that the film star will come to our city.
据报道那位电影明星将来我们市。
②It is a pity that you can't go with us to enjoy the concert.
你不能跟我们一块去听音乐会真是可惜。
③It is said that he studied abroad,but we don't know which country he studied in.=He is said (say) to have studied abroad,but we don't know which country he studied in.据说他在国外学习过,但是我们不知道他是在哪个国家学的。
(教材P7)Nor do I think they should give it to any government.
我认为他们不应该把它交给任何一个政府。
【要点提炼】 否定词nor位于句首,应该用部分倒装。形式为:“nor + be动词/助动词/情态动词+主语+动词+其他”。表示前面的否定情况也适用于另一人或物,可用neither替换nor。
(1)若表示前句中的肯定情况也适用于另一人或物,要用“so +be动词/情态动词/助动词+主语”,表示“……也是这样,也是如此”。
(2)当前句中既有肯定的情况也有否定的情况,两种不同的情况也适用于另一人或物时,则用以下句式:It is the same with sb./sth.或So it is with sb./sth.
①I don't know about his secrets.Nor do I care.
我不知道他的秘密,我也不关心。
②Tom is very clever and studies very hard.It is the same with Mary/So it is with Mary.
汤姆聪明且学习很努力,玛丽也一样。
③He likes swimming and so do I.
他喜欢游泳,我也是。
④Tom isn't good at maths;neither/nor am I.
汤姆不擅长数学,我也是。
[名师点津]
如果后一句只是单纯地重复前一句的意思,此时主谓不倒装,句型为“so+主语+be动词/助动词/情态动词”。
—She speaks French very well.她法语说得很好。
—So she does. 她说得确实很好。
单句语法填空
1.I'll meet you at the entrance (enter) to the theatre.

Unit 1 Cultural relics
【导读】 通常看一个人读些什么书就可知道他的为人,就像看他同什么人交往就可知道他的为人一样,因为有人以人为伴,也有人以书为伴。阅读下面选取的美文《以书为伴》,对比中外文化中对书籍态度的异同。
Companionship of Books
A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps;for there is a companionship① of books as well as of men;and one should always live in the best company,whether it be of books or of men.
A good book may be among the best of friends.It is the same today that it always was,and it will never change.It is the most patient and cheerful of companions.It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity② or distress.It always receives us with the same kindness;amusing and instructing us in youth,and comforting and consoling③ us in age.
Men often discover their affinity④ to each other by the love they have each for a book—just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third.There is an old proverb:“love me,love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this:“love me,love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union.Men can think,feel,and sympathize with each other through their favorite author.They live in him together,and he in them.
“Books”,said Hazlitt,“wind into the heart;the poet's verse slides in the current of our blood.We read them when young,we remember them when old.We feel that it has happened to ourselves.They are to be very cheap and good.We breathe but the air of books.”
A good book is often the best urn of a life,enshrining⑤ the best that life could think out;for the world of a man's life is,for the most part,but the world of his thoughts.Thus the best books are treasuries of good words,the golden thoughts,which,remembered and cherished,become our constant companions and comforters.“They are never alone,” said Sir Philip Sidney,“that are accompanied by noble thoughts.”
The good and true thought may in times of temptation be as an angel of mercy purifying and guarding the soul.It also enshrines the germs of action,for good words almost always inspire to good works.
Books possess an essence of immortality⑥.They are by far the most lasting products of human efforts.Temples and statues decay,but books survive.Time is of no account with great thoughts,which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author's minds ages ago.What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page.The only effect of time has been to sift out the bad products;for nothing in literature can long survive but what is really good.
Books introduce us into the best society;they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived.We hear what they said and did;we see them as if they were really alive;we sympathize⑦ with them,enjoy with them,grieve with them;their experience becomes ours,and we feel as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes which they describe.
The great and good do not die ever in this world.Embalmed in books,their spirits walk abroad.The book is a living voice.It is an intellect to which one still listens.Hence we ever remain under the influence of the great men of old.The imperial⑧ intellects of the world are as much alive now as they were ages ago.
以书为伴
观其友而知其人,同样,察其所读之书亦能知其人,只因书与人一样,也能做人之友。而人总应择其最佳者为友,无论是书还是人。
好书如好友,过去是,现在也是,将来也不会变。书是最沉静也最让人愉悦的伙伴,即使我们遭遇灾难或不幸、痛苦,它也不会背叛我们,始终如一,善待接纳。我们年轻时,书本给我们以欢娱和陶冶;我们老迈时,又给我们以慰藉和鼓励。
人们常常因同爱一本书而精神共鸣——正如两个人有时因共同仰慕另外一人而彼此成为朋友,古谚云:“爱屋及乌”,而“爱其人,也爱其珍爱之书”这句话里却含有更多的哲理。书是更忠诚更高尚的情感纽带。人们可以通过共同喜爱的作者而相知相契,息息相通。他们的思想与作者的思想水乳交融,密不可分。
黑兹利特曾说:“书香轻拂沁心灵,诗行轻滑渗血液。青春时所读之书,垂暮时依然会回想,仿佛就在身边发生。书籍价廉物美,我们就在书香中呼吸。”
一本好书往往就是作者的人生结晶,里面蕴藏着他穷其一生的求索成果。因为人一生的世界大多就是其思想的世界,故而最优秀的书籍也就是至理名言和辉煌思想的富藏。这些思想若能铭记在心,就成为我们永久的朋友和永恒的慰藉。菲利普·悉尼爵士说过:“与高尚思想为伴的人永不寂寞。”
在我们经受诱惑时,美好的思想如同仁慈的天使,净化护卫着我们的灵魂,并蕴含着我们行动的萌芽,因为美好的话语总能激励我们美好的行动。
书籍永生,是人类劳作最长久的成果。庙宇会坍塌,雕像会朽败,书籍却经久长存。伟大的思想不会因时间的流逝而失其光辉,一如千百年前最初在作者脑海中出现时那样清新。往昔的论述和思想今天依然在书页上鲜明有力地展现在我们面前。时间的唯一作用就是淘汰低劣之作。只有真正优秀的作品才能与世长存,流芳千古。
书籍把我们带入最优秀的人群之中,把我们带到人间一切最伟大的思想家面前,我们聆听其话语,领会其成就,仿佛他们依然活在人间。我们与他们灵犀相通,悲喜与共,他们的人生体验变成我们自己的人生体验。我们仿佛感觉到,我们是在作者描绘的人生舞台上,与他们同台演出。
伟大和美好的思想在这个世界上永不会消亡。载之于书籍,这思想传诸四海,而书籍就是活着的声音,是我们至今仍在倾听的真知灼见,因而我们永远沐浴在逝去伟人的思想中。与千百年前一样,人世间无与伦比的智慧如今依然熠熠生辉。
