Until then Id been bored by everything associated with English courses. (Para. 1)What can we infer from this sentence?(Up to then, Baker had had no interest in things related to English courses.)2. I hated the assignments to turn out long, lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write. (Para. 1)Paraphrase the sentence.(I found it painful to write long, boring essays as required by teachers; neither did teachers enjoy what I wrote.)3. another cheerless year in that most tedious of subjects (Para. 2)What can we learn from this phrase?(We can know from this phrase that before Mr. Fleagle became Bakers English teacher, all English courses were dull.)4. I prepared for an unfruitful year with Mr. Fleagle and for a long time was not disappointed. (Para. 3)What does the author really mean when he says “I . was not disappointed”?(He means that his expectation was right that Mr. Fleagles lessons were dull.)5.

Vivid memories came flooding back of a night in Belleville when all of us were seated around the supper table Uncle Allen, my mother, Uncle Charlie, Doris, Uncle Hal and Aunt Pat served spaghetti for supper. (Para. 4)Analyze the structure of the sentence.(在这个长句中,came flooding back 是谓语,其余的都是主语。为了使句子结构平衡,避免头重脚轻,作者运用了割裂修饰法,把谓语前移,主语中心语的修饰成分后置,使谓语紧接主语。例如:- A list has been drawn up of words we have learned so far.- All is not gold that glitters.)8. Neither Doris nor I had ever eaten spaghetti, and none of the adults had enough experience to be good at it. (Para. 4)What is the relationship between Baker and Doris? Why?(Doris was Bakers sister or his female cousin. Two reasons for that: - Doris is a female name;- The author mentioned “none of the adults .” which shows that they were still children, not adults.)9. I was preparing myself for a command to report to Mr. Fleagle immediately after school for discipline when I saw him lift my paper from his desk and knock for the classs attention. (Para. 6)1) Paraphrase this part of the sentence: I was prepared for discipline.(I was ready for Mr. Fleagles order to see him soon after school for the purpose of punishing me .)2) Why did Baker think he would be punished?(Because to his mind, this time he had violated the rules of formal composition.)3) Whats the function of the word “when” in the sentence?(The word “when” here doesnt mean “at or during the time that” (当时). Instead, it means “and then” (在那时).More examples:- He had just drifted off to sleep when the bell rang.- I was about to ask after his wife when I suddenly remembered that they were getting a divorce.)10. In the eleventh grade, at the eleventh hour as it were, I had discovered a calling. (Para. 9)Translate the sentence into Chinese.(就在十一年级,可谓是最后的时刻,我找到了一件今生想做的事。)II.
