早饭还是午餐

星期天我从不早起,有时候我一直睡到吃午饭。上星期天我起得很晚。我向窗外看去,外面一片漆黑。我想:倒霉的天,又下雨啦!就在这时,电话响了,是我姑妈Lucy来的电话。她说:“我刚下火车,准备来看你。”“可我正在吃早饭哩!”我说。“你在做什么?”她问。“我正在吃早饭。”我重复说。她说:“哎呀!你总是起得那么晚吗?现在是中午一点啦!”It was Sunday I never get up early on Sundays.I sometimes stay in beduntil lunchtime.Last Sunday I got up very late.I looked out of the window.Itwas dark outside.‘What a day!’I thought.‘It was raining again.’Just thenthe telephone rang.It was my aunt Lucy.“I have just arrived by train,”shesaid,“I am coming to see you.”“But I am still having break...     

糟糕的一天

"Listen," I said slapping my hand down on the desk in front of me. "I really need that book today. The computer says you still have it. The essay is due in tomorrow; please could you tell me where it is?" I had been in the library since about noon. The shadows were beginning to lengthen and my patience beginning to run out as the librarian stared up at me with all the sentient comprehension of a lobotomised teletubby.     

Experimentalism and education

The records of the New York City Police Department and the New York State Department of Correction would show that my career of crime began at fifteen when I was committed to the Elmira Reformatory for robbing a Tenth Avenue grocery store. These records are slightly inaccurate. My underworld career really began four years earlier, at the tender age of eleven, when I “turned off” a Ninth Avenue cigar store for a load of cigarettes and candy and an armful of Nick Carter and Old Sleuth magazines. I have indelible memories of that blood-and-thunder fiction which furnished me with patterns for my adolescent exploits. Moreover, it convinced me that George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were sissies compared to Jesse James, “High Card Mike,” and the Younger Brothers. Safe cracking and train robbery, it also convinced me, was a better racket than statesmanship.     

A Warm Light

原文 The story was set in the winter of 20051.I intended to pay a visit to my uncle by train.Unfortunately,as the train arrived at the small town where my uncle UvedI it Was deep into night2 and what impressed me most was the chilling and penetrating wind Confronted with this new environment at such special time3,I felt lonely and a little frightened.Worse still,I Was told to wait for haft an hour,because the terrible weather had prevented my uncle from picking me up on time,I was overcome with fear when the sound of the travelers'footsteps faded away and the last lightwas turned off.Nothing lay ahead of me but the dark,and my heart leapt quickly,my legs trembled,especially when I thought of the fact that gangs,drug addicts,murders,thieves lurked everywhere4.

用一生交换

Everyone has those unforgettable memories they will keep for a lifetime. I've been to many places, from my motherland China to the other side of the world like Canada. But despite all the exciting travelings and all that, I moved back to China in the end, to attend high school. But in my heart, for some reason, Canada was the place I loved the most. Some people might just ask: Then why not go back to where you love? Well... I can't explain it in one sentence, but in a nut shell, you could say that it's a "made-up-my-mind, won't-regret-it" and because "I have to stay with wherever my family takes me" kind of thing. 　　……

My Westindian Presence in an English School Day

Awarded a C. Day Lewis Fellowship, 1977–8, I became a writer-in-residence in a south London comprehensive school. I read and talked to hundreds of the children. I conducted writing workshops with altogether 82 of the 14–17-year-old girls. I gave two poetry reading sessions for teachers. I organised an evening's reading with pupils and myself at a local community hall. That Fellowship experience started me off and has kept me on the road to school again.     

The rain

I used to be a boy deeply loving the rain.Running in the rain without my beautiful umbrella was once one of my favorite things.However,as time went by,I was not even the half the one I had been.The rain would bring me some convenience,like no P.E.class that day.In another way,it made me depressed.Loneliness came to bother me all day.Facing the crowded bus,I felt somewhat complicated.Though it took me more time and strength,I still enjoyed walking home.At least I didn't have to stay out of breath on the hot wet bus...

THAN I还是THAT ME

普遍认为,比较结构中,than既可以作连词,后面接代词主格,也可以作介词,后接代词宾格,只是语体不同。运用功能语法中信息焦点理论和me在法语中的对应形式,以COCA语料库中than I和than me的所有索引作参考,进行对比和分析,指出比较从句than me中的me并不是人称代词的宾格形式,而是主格代词I的重读形式。因此,不能说这里的than就是介词,换言之,me不能使than的词性发生改变。
