SentenceTranslation:他是屬于行動過于遲鈍而干脆什么游戲也不參加的那類學生，為了逃避學校規(guī)定必須參加的活動項目，他還挖空心思編造些借口來。同學和教師對他總隱隱有種厭惡之感。而菲利普現(xiàn)在主動同他結(jié)交，純粹是出于牛心眼賭氣。2.ReadingBetweentheLinesKeySentencesPara39Thedesiretowoundhadbeentoostrongforhim.Hehadwantedtorevengehimselfforthepainandthehumiliationhehadendured.Itwaspride:itwasfollytoo,forheknewthatRosewouldnotcareatall,whilehewouldsufferbitterly.

Vocabularywoundv.使受創(chuàng)傷humiliationn.羞辱endurev.忍耐follyn.愚笨，愚蠢，蠢事，蠢行，傻話

SentenceTranslation:然而，他雪恥泄恨的欲望實在太強烈了。他一直想為自己所忍受的痛苦和屈辱找機會報復一下。這是自尊心在作怪，而這種做法又是多么愚蠢，因為他明知羅斯根本不會把這放在心上，自己反倒要為此備受折磨。2.ReadingBetweentheLinesKeySentencesPara73AndPhilip,easilymovedbytheemotionofothers,veryemotionalhimselfnotwithstandingaplacid

Vocabularynotwithstandingprep./adv.盡管如此placidadj.安靜的，平和的exteriorn.外觀，外部；外貌

SentenceTranslation:菲利普向來很容易被別人的情感所打動，盡管從外表來看，他常常不動聲色——除了短暫地紅一下臉之外，內(nèi)心感受難得見于言表。這一方面是他生性如此，另一方面也是多年來在學校養(yǎng)成的習慣——實質(zhì)上卻極易動感情。此刻他被校長先生的一席懇談深深打動了。2.ReadingBetweentheLinesKeySentencesPara80Ashegrewuphehadlearnedtoknowhisuncle;Philipwasdownrightandintolerant,andhecouldnotunderstandthatamanmightsincerelysaythingsasaclergymanwhichheneveracteduptoasaman.Thedeception

Vocabularydownrightadj.直截了當?shù)?，生硬的deceptionn.欺騙，欺詐；騙局outragedadj.震驚的，義憤填膺的

SentenceTranslation:隨著年歲的增長，他逐漸認清了大伯的為人。菲利普性格率直、偏激；他沒法理解這種現(xiàn)象：一個人可以作為教士虔誠地講上一通大道理，卻從不愿以普通人的身份躬身力行。這種言行不一的欺騙行為使他義憤填膺。他大伯是個懦弱、自私之徒，生活中的主要愿望就是別給自己找麻煩。Writer’sIdeasWriter’sTechniquesLanguageProficiency
