“There
were

times
when
I
thought,”
I
can’t
do
this.
I
am
a
21st
century
woman.
I
don’t
work
eighteen-hour
days’.
But
then
I’d
stop
and
say,
‘Hang
on.
In
the
1940s,
women
didn’t
say
they
couldn’t
do
it.
They
just
got
on
with
it.
’”These
are
the
words
of
50-year-old
Lyn
Hymers,
who
took
part
in
an
experiment
called
The
1940s
House.
The
purpose
of
the
experiment
was
to
see
if
a
modern-day
family
would
be
capable
of
surviving
in
the
1940s.

有很多次我想，“我做不到。”我是一个21
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)世纪的女人。我不是每天工作18个小时。但我会停下来说，‘等等。在20世纪40年代，女性并没有说她们不能这样做。他们就这么干了。这是50岁的琳恩·海莫斯说的话，她参加了一项名为“1940年代的房子”的实验。实验的目的是看一个现代家庭是否有能力在20世纪40年代生存下来。

her

and

house
in
south
London.
Unfortunately,
when
they
opened

door,
all

immediately
disappeared.

was

今年3月，琳恩和她的丈夫迈克
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)尔、女儿以及两个外孙来到伦敦南部一所有三间卧室的房子里。不幸的是，当他们打开大门时，所有21世纪的省力设备立刻消失了。房子里没有中央暖气或冰箱，但幸运的是，他们有一堆煤火来取暖。【版权所有：21教育】
But
food
and
warm
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)th
were
not
as
important
as
safety—their
first
task
was
to
quickly
dig
a
hole
in
the
garden.
The
family
needed
to
have
a
place
to
take
cover:
World
War
II
started
in
1939,
and
German
planes
were
regularly
dropping
bombs
over
London.
Although
the
war
wasn’t
real
for
the
Hymers,
they
spent
a
lot
of
time
down
in
the
hole.
They
wanted
the
experiment
to
seem
as
real
as
possible.
参考译文：
但是食物和温暖并不像安全那么重要——他们的
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)第一个任务是在花园里迅速挖一个洞。这个家庭需要一个隐蔽的地方:1939年第二次世界大战开始了，德国飞机经常在伦敦上空投下炸弹。虽然战争对Hymers来说并不真实，但他们在洞里呆了很长时间。他们希望这个实验看起来尽可能真实。
The
war
wasn’t
r
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)eal,
but
the
difficulties
of
everyday
life
were.
In
the
1940s,
there
was
rationing
of
goods
such
as
food
and
petrol.
There
wasn’t
much
meat
or
milk,
or
many
eggs,
and
the
food
was
really
boring.
As
a
result,
the
family
were
often
hungry,
especially
the
children.
Before
the
experiment,
the
children
often
had
snacks,
but
now
they
ate
dry
sandwiches
for
lunch.
参考译文：
战争是不真实的，但日常生活的困难是
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)真实的。20世纪40年代，食品和汽油等商品实行定量配给。没有多少肉和牛奶，也没有很多鸡蛋，而且食物真的很无聊。结果，家里经常挨饿，尤其是孩子们。实验前，孩子们经常吃零食，但现在他们午餐吃干三明治。
Domestic
chores
were
a
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)
challenge
too.
In
the
1940s,
these
chores
were
like
a
full-time
job.
While
Michael
went
out
to
work,
Lyn
and
her
daughter
spent
most
of
their
time
preparing
meals,
doing
the
dishes
and
cleaning
the
floor.
Things
that
Lyn
did
easily
before,
now
became
terribly
difficult.
She
missed
her
washing
machine
most
of
all.
“We
had
to
boil
the
clothes
and
when
the
weather
wasn’t
good,
it
was
impossible
to
dry
anything,”
said
Lyn.
参考译文：
家务琐事也是个挑战。在20世纪40年代
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)，这些家务就像是一份全职工作。当迈克尔出去工作时，琳恩和她的女儿大部分时间都在做饭、洗碗和擦地板。以前琳很容易做到的事情，现在变得异常困难。她最想念她的洗衣机。林恩说:“我们不得不把衣服煮了，天气不好的时候，什么都不可能烘干。”
Today,
Lyn
i
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)s
back
in
her
modern,
open-plan
home,
but
surprisingly,
she
misses
the
1940s
house.
The
family
grew
closer,
she
feels,
because
they
helpfully
shared
the
hard
work.
In
the
evenings
they
played
board
games
with
the
children,
read
books
or
just
talked.
Life
in
the
1940s
wasn’t
easy,
but
an
easier
and
more
comfortable
life
doesn’t
necessarily
mean
a
better
life.
“I
would
happily
go
back
there,”
she
says,
“I
loved
that
house
where
we
all
laughed
and
cried
together
as
a
family.
参考译文：
如今，林恩回到了她的现代开放式住宅，但令人惊
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)讶的是，她怀念上世纪40年代的房子。她觉得，家庭变得更亲密了，因为他们帮助分担了辛苦的工作。晚上，他们和孩子们玩棋盘游戏，读书或者只是聊天。20世纪40年代的生活并不容易，但更轻松、更舒适的生活并不一定意味着更好的生活。“我会很高兴地回到那里，”她说，“我喜欢那座房子，在那里我们一家人一起欢笑，一起哭泣。

That’s

the

It’s

and
it’s
right
in

Zhao

My
favourite
room
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)?Well,it
isn’t
my
brother’s
bedroom.That’s
the
worst
room
in
our
apartment
and
definitely
the
messiest.My
brother
simply
treats
it
as
a
place
where
he
can
throw
his
stuff
all
over
the
floor:his
dirty
football
clothes
and
bits
of
pizza.To
his
credit,he
helps
keep
the
rest
of
the
house
tidy.I
think
my
favourite
room
is
the
downstairs
living
room.It’s
a
lot
tidier
than
the
other
rooms
and
much
more
comfortable—there’s
a
big
sofa
and
it’s
right
in
front
of
the
TV.However,the
piano
is
the
main
reason
why
I
love
this
room:If
nobody
else
is
around,I
can
sit
there
and
practise
for
hours.

The

(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)cause
it’s
the
busiest
and
most
interesting
room,I
think.My
dad
is
always
cooking
there—that’s
the
reason
why
it’s
warmer
and
friendlier
than
the
other
rooms.It’s
open-plan,which
means
there’s
lots
of
space,and
it’s
got
big
windows
that
look
out
onto
the
garden,so
it’s
lovely
and
bright.That’s
really

I’m

read
my

In

100
ye

aspects
of
people’s
lifestyles,such
as
our
clothes,the
buildings
we
live
in
and
our
free
time,have
changed
dramatically.There
are
many
amazing
stories
about
these
charges.In
this

will
first
read
a
passage
about
Highclere
Castle,a
famous
historic
building.You

watch

where
the
members
of
a
British
family
go

and
explore
how
lifestyles
in

have
changed
over
four

Imagine
living
in
a
h
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)uge
house,a
house
so
big
that
you
don’t
know
how
many
rooms
it
has!Lady
Carnarvon,owner
of
Highclere
Castle,is
not
sure
about
the
number
of
rooms,but
she
does
know
that
Highclere
is
one
of
the
biggest
houses
in
England.From
the
outside,the
castle
looks
like
the
House
of
Parliament
in
London.In
fact,the
same
person,Sir
Charles
Barry,built
both
places.When
Barry
finished
building
Highclere
in
1842,the
castle
had
more
than
50
rooms,including
one
room
with
a
15-metre-high
ceiling!But
this
room
was
only
used
on
special
occasions.Today,Highclere
is
one
of
the
most
expensive
houses
in
Britain,worth
more
than
150
million
pounds.

Do
you
want
to
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)learn
about
ancient
Egypt?Visit
Highclere
and
find
out
about
its
famous
Egyptian
connection.In
1922,Lord
Carnarvon
opened
the
tomb
of
an
ancient
pharaoh
in
Egypt.However,Lord
Carnarvon
suddenly
died
just
a
few
weeks
later.Many
people
thought
that
the
pharaoh’s
angry
spirit
brought
about
his
death.Today,you
can
find
out
more
about
his
discovery
in
the
castle’s
Egyptian
room
and
make
up
your
own
mind!

Nowadays,Highclere
is
(?http:?/??/?www.21cnjy.com?)
one
of
the
most
well-known
homes
in
Britain,but
it’s
not
because
of
its
interesting
past
or
its
Egyptian
treasures.It
is
because
Highclere
is
the
star
of
a
British
TV
show
called
Downton
Abbey.The
show
is
all
about
the
life
of
an
upper-class
family
in
the
1910s,and
most
of
the
story
takes
place
inside
Highclere.More
than
ten
million

enjoy
watching
it
every

love
coming

too!
