Warming up by discussing Oxymoron (矛盾修辞) Today we shall read an article entitled A SUCCESSFUL FAILURE. What do you think of this title? Is there anything unusual about it? Yes, Oxymoron is used in the title. But what is Oxymoron?

Oxymoron (or oxymora) are literary figures of speech usually composed of a pair of neighbouring contradictory words (often within a sentence). However this is not always the case. The Webster Dictionary defines oxymoron as "a combination of contradictory or incongruous words". Oxymorons can be used for dramatic effect, for example: Hell's Angels and deafening silence. They can also be comical, such as in civil engineer. Clearly this is not an oxymoron in the true and strict sense, but the suggestion that it is oxymoronic is humorous. Examples of Oxymoron "O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!" John Donne, Devotions on Emergent Occasions

"I do here make humbly bold to present them with a short account of themselves... " Jonathan Swift

"The bookful blockhead, ignorantly read, / With loads of learned lumber in his head..." Alexander Pope

"He was now sufficiently composed to order a funeral of modest magnificence..." Samuel Johnson

"O anything of nothing first create! / O heavy lightness, serious vanity! / Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms! / Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health!" William Shakespeare Romeo and Juliet, Act 1, scene 1

"It was the best of times, It was the worst of times." Charles Dickens A Tale of Two Cities

"You'd be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap." Dolly Parton

"I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught." Winston Churchill

"I have never let my schooling interfere with my education." Mark Twain

"I am a deeply superficial person." Andy Warhol

"The only new thing in this world, is the history you did not know." Harry Truman

"A joke is a very serious thing." Winston Churchill

"Melancholy is the pleasure of being sad." Victor Hugo

"The best cure for insomnia is to get a lot of sleep." W.C. Fields

"To lead the people, walk behind them." Lao-Tzu

"I miss the comfort in being sad." Kurt Cobain "Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle"

"I'm so tired, I can't sleep." Kurt Cobain "Pennyroyal Tea" I. Pre-reading

Before we read the text, let’s first get to know some facts about Australia. 1. Facts of Antarctica: Antarctica, the fifth largest continent, c.5,500,000 sq mi (14,245,000 sq km), asymmetrically centered on the South Pole and almost entirely within the Antarctic Circle. 2. Define expedition

In tourism, a journey with few amenities, usually to a remote area, sometimes for a scientific purpose. II. Reading

On page 2 there is an article entitled "A SUCCESSFUL FAILURE " You are going to read it to the recording.

Now read the text again to: cut/ the sentence into thought groups, blacken the predicative, darken the connectives and underline all the useful expressions.

A SUCCESSFUL FAILURE

If at first/ you

don’t succeed, try/ and try again. ---- W C Fields

Perce Blackborow joined an expedition /with Sir Ernest Shackleton /to Antarctica/ on the ship Endurance /in August 1914. Shackleton was one of the most famous explorers of his day/ and it was

considered a great honour /to be part of any of his expeditions. Now /read the first part of Perce’s story.

August 29th, 1916 Slowly /I put my head out of my sleeping bag /and look around me. Everything is grey: the inside of the hut appears grey, the morning light looks grey /and the pot bubbling /on the oil stove/ is

grey. The smell is, as usual, almost unbearable, being a mixture of sweat, seal oil fat, and /dirty

underwear. I try to think of happier things: warm/ and dry clothes, a cosy bedroom, sunny days, my mother’s face /and the celebration/ we will

get

/when we return, for I am

part of a failed expedition /that tried to cross the continent of Antarctica, something/ that had never been done

before. As I think of

this, a black blanket drops

/and covers

me, almost blocking out/ the memories of happier times. I feel

breathless /as I remember

my rotten toes/ that had to be removed /when they became blackened/ from frost-bite. Our circumstances are so desperate/ that it is uncertain/ whether we will ever return alive. Perhaps /our bodies will be recognized and collected by some other expedition team/ many years/ from now.

Just as I am about to become self-pitying, the door/ to our shelter opens /and a blast of cold air /tears through the hut. “Shut

that door!” I yell in a hoarse voice /that I hardly recognize

/as my own. “Hold

on now, Perce. Don’t

you

go

turning into another Tom,” comes

the reply. “We’ve caught

another penguin, so it’s

penguin soup/ tonight!” Bless

Frank Wild, the kindest man /there is,

after our leader, Ernest Shackleton. How could

I become

/as selfish /and bad-tempered /as Tom Orde-Lees! I struggle out of my bed /and a new day begins. When the expedition was announced, I was only twenty/ and I had always dreamed of adventure. So /it was

with great excitement /one morning /in July /1914/ that I read this advertisement:

Men wanted for a dangerous journey: small wages, bitter cold, months of complete darkness, and safe return uncertain. Honour /and reward will follow/ if it is successful. Sir Ernest Shackleton. An expedition /with the great Sir Ernest Shackleton /to the South Pole ---- I was

hooked! I was an amateur/ but /I was young, fit and energetic. I secretly hid aboard the ship, Endurance, in

a small cupboard. Nobody found me /until the ship had sailed /and I was

suffering badly/ from seasickness. Anyhow, Shackleton seemed interested

in my silly behaviour /and accepted

the situation. He made me a steward/ to help cook twenty-eight meals/ three times /a day. On January 18th, 1915 /the Endurance

became stuck in pack ice /(which can be solid/ or broken /into huge floating pieces of ice) as we approached Antarctica. The ice froze around us/ and we were well /and truly stuck! The ship was gradually crushed /in front of our eyes. I believe

/Shackleton must have mourned this unexpected end /to his expedition, but /he did not waste

time/ on regrets. Calling us calmly /together, he made

an urgent announcement/ that we must save

only essential supplies/ before the ship sank, particularly /the small boats, food, cooking equipment, candles, bedding /and clothes. To show his determination, Shackleton threw

some gold coins /and his gold watch /onto the ice. But /to my surprise /he encouraged Hussey/ to bring his banjo. He described it/ as vital /for keeping us cheerful. His perseverance won our complete faith /in him. He was always honest/ with us /(as in the advertisement) /and never gave

way to disappointment, even when the ship sank. On April 9th

1916, we moved to our present camp /on Elephant Island. Soon Shackleton set out the framework/ for our life here: no differences /in rank /or in social status; everyone to keep busy; a fair division of food/ and bedding; and a concern for all. This team-spirit contributed to the morale of the crew /and saved our lives. Once we were settled

on Elephant Island, Shackleton explained his plan/ to save us: twenty-two of us were to remain here/ and he would select five others /to go to South Georgia /and bring help. No rescue attempt could be expected from outside/ as nobody knew /where we were. I will never forget watching the little boat/ disappear through the booming waves/ into the

stormy ocean. We/ who remained on Elephant Island/ swore that /we would do /as he advocated: remain optimistic /and recover our health /before he returned to rescue us.

Transferring information Read the text again to complete the table with information from the text. Time Location Who Events

August 29th, 1916 In an expedition to Perce Blackborow,

On January 18th, 1915 Endurance Antarctica on the ship Sir Ernest Shackleton the Endurance

and others became stuck in pack ice (which can be solid or broken into huge floating pieces of ice) as they approached Antarctica. V. Closing down by reading about W. PERCE BLACKBOROW

W. PERCE BLACKBOROW BORN: PILLGWENTLY. NEWPORT. WALES DIED: MAESGLAS GROVE. NEWPORT. WALES NICKNAME : BLACKIE DUTY : STEWARD

PHOTO TAKEN NOT LONG AFTER HIS ARRIVAL HOME FROM HOSPITAL IN PUNTA ARENAS. Awarded Bronze Polar Medal

Perce Blackborow is famed for being probably the only person ever to stowaway on an Antarctic expedition. He was only 19 years of age when he met up with an American sailor, William Bakewell, and they both found themselves in Buenos Aires without a ship.

Bakewell was accepted as a seaman on the Endurance by Shackleton , but Perce was refused due to his young age and lack of seamanship.

At the time he was discovered on board the Endurance the ship was already three days sailing out of South Georgia. Shackleton really had no option but to offer him a position as steward. If anyone has to be eaten, then you will be the first! , said Shackleton.

Perce did not let Shackleton down and he was awarded the honour of being the first person ever to set foot on Elephant Island. Due to severe frostbite to his toes he actually crawled ashore rather than walked.

After the expedition, Perce spent three months hospitalised in Punta Arenas, Chile, recovering from the frostbite damage sustained to his left foot, which had resulted in the surgeons Macklin and McIllroy having to amputate his toes on Elephant Island on 15th June 1916.

Perce it seems was a modest man, for upon returning home to Wales he avoided the welcoming home party waiting for him at the local railway station by going across the tracks and out the other side of the station. He soon volunteered to join The Royal Navy but was turned down because of the lack of digits on his left foot.

He was however, accepted into The Merchant Navy and served until 1919 and went on to become a dock boatman in the Alexandra Docks, Newport.and also fished to help to support his family.

He married a local girl, Kate Kearns and they settled in Maesglas, Newport. Their marriage produced six children .Jack, Jim, Peggy, Ken, Joan and Phillip. Unfortunately Phillip died in infancy and Jack died aged just 9 years.

Notes to the difficult sentences 1.

I try to think of happier things: warm and dry clothes, a cosy bedroom, sunny days, my mother’s face and the celebration we will get when we return, for I am part of a failed expedition that tried to cross the continent of Antarctica, something that had never been done before. 我试着想到较快乐的事物: 温暖的和干燥的衣服，一间舒适的卧室, 阳光充足的日子, 我母亲的脸和我们归还的时候我们将会经历的庆祝活动。因为我是企图越过南极洲的失败的远征的一部份，在此以前人们从未做过此事。for前后是并列关系，for

是并列连词。

并列连词用来连接平行的词、词组和分句。如：and, but, or, nor, so, therefore, yet, however, for, hence, as well as, both…and, not only…but also, either…or, neither…nor, (and)then等等。

2.

Bless Frank Wild, the kindest man there is, after our leader, Ernest Shackleton.

祝福法兰克荒野,他是仅次于我们的领袖欧内斯特·沙克尔顿之后最亲切的男人。句中there前有一个停顿，因为这里的“there is”不是“存在结构”。

这句话可以改成：

Bless Frank Wild, who is the kindest man there, after our leader, Ernest 3.

Men wanted for a dangerous journey: small wages, bitter cold, months of complete darkness, and safe return uncertain. Honour and reward will follow if it is successful. Sir Ernest Shackleton.

征求尝试危险旅程的男人: 薪水不高,天气很冷,数月黑暗,安全未知。

成功，则光荣和酬谢将至。欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士。这是一则广告，其中的语法结构有省略现象。可以改写为：Men is wanted for a dangerous journey. He will receive small wages and experience bitter cold and months of complete darkness. And safe return is uncertain. Honour and reward will follow if it is successful. Sir Ernest Shackleton.

4.

I secretly hid aboard the ship, Endurance, in a small cupboard. 我秘密地登上“忍耐”号，躲藏在一个小的食橱中。hid aboard…是一个短语动词，

hide构成的短语动词还有：be on a hiding to nothing，

(British, informal) to be in a situation where it is impossible to succeed. We were on a hiding to nothing trying to get more money out of the government. cover/hide a multitude of sins (humorous) if something hides a multitude of sins, it prevents people from seeing

or discovering something bad. Big sweaters are warm and practical and they hide a multitude of sins. haven't seen hide nor hair of someone/something (informal) if you have not seen hide nor hair of someone or something, you have not seen them for a period of time. I haven't seen hide nor hair of her since last Sunday, and I'm beginning to get rather worried. (often + since) hide your light under a bushel to avoid letting people know that you are good at something, usually because you are shy. I didn't realize you could play the piano - you've been hiding your light under a bushel. (often in continuous tenses) hide a multitude of sins to prevent people from noticing something bad. I'm a messy eater, so I always wear black - it hides a multitude of sins. hide your head in the sand to refuse to think about an unpleasant situation. Teachers can't just hide their heads in the sand and not try to find out why students aren't doing better. 5.

On January 18th, 1915 the Endurance became stuck in pack ice (which can be solid or broken into huge floating pieces of ice) as we approached Antarctica.

当我们接近南极洲的时候，“忍耐”号在1915年1月18日被困于大块的浮冰之中(实心的浮冰或分解为大块的浮冰)。became stuck 是被动语态，注意它的翻译技巧。被动结构的翻译方法，主要有如下几种：1.化"被动"为"主动" ：THE TIMES is read by the people who run the country; THE GARDIAN is read by the people who would like to run the country; THE FINANCIAL TIMES is read by the people who own the country and THE DAILY TELEGRAPH is read by the people who remember the country as it used to be. 在位掌权的人读《泰晤士报》，渴望掌权的人读《卫

报》，大老板们读《金融时报》，怀念大英帝国曾经了不起的人读《每日电讯报》。2.以"主动"表"被动"：These stone processing machines have been introduced from Italy for the newly established factory. 这些石材加工机器是为新建工厂而从意大利引进的。3. 以"被动"译"被动"：Much of the energy is absorbed as the Sun's rays pass through the atmosphere.太阳光线通过大气层时许多能量被吸收去了。

6.

No rescue attempt could be expected from outside as nobody knew where we were. 没有人知道我们在那里，没有希望获得外部的援救。As在此句中引导的是原因状语从句。

比较：because, since, as和for 引导的原因状语从句。1. because语势最强，用来说明人所不知的原因，回答why提出的问题。当原因是显而易见的或已为人们所知，就用as或

since：

I didn't go, because I was afraid.

Since /As the weather is so bad, we have to delay our journey. 2.

由because引导的从句如果放在句末，且前面有逗号，则可以用for来代替。但如果不是说明直接原因，而是多种情况加以推断，就只能用for：

He is absent today, because / for he is ill. He must be ill, for he is absent today. 7.

I will never forget watching the little boat disappear through the booming waves into the stormy ocean. 我将永远无法忘记目睹小船在波涛滚滚的大洋中消失的情景。forget ~ing 作谓语，disappear到句号是宾语补语。句子中的watch是复合及物动词，此类及物动词除了身需要一个宾语外，

还需要一个名词，形容词，副词, 动词不定式，分词来补充说明宾语，才能表达一个完整的意念。例如：. We elected Li Yang our monitor. The news made us sad. She saw the thief steal into the shop .The teacher asked

me to answer the question. I found

the man

stealing the money. I found my money stolen. Reading comprehension questions 1.

本单元我们复习attribute的用法。什么是attribute呢？It is a word or phrase syntactically subordinate to another word or phrase that it modifies. For example, my sister's and brown in my

sister's brown dog are attributes. 定语从句是我们学过的最重要的attribute。

课文最后一句We who remained on Elephant Island swore that we would do as he advocated: remain optimistic and recover our health before he returned to rescue us. 中包含了三个从句，第一个就是定语从句。

考点分析

定语从句主要考点是关系代词，尤其是that, as, 介词+which的用法。

知识点

定语从句也称形容词性从句，在整个句子中起定语的作用。定语从句通常置于它所修饰的名词和代词之后，这种名词和代词被称为先行词。

引导定语从句的关联词为关系代词和关系副词。其中，关系代词有who, whom, whose, that, which等，在从句中可作主语、宾语，定语等；关系副词有when, where, why等词，在定语从句中只用作状语。其中：

1. who, whom, whose指人，在从句中分别作主语（在非正式英语中也可作宾语,但可省略）、宾语和定语；whose也可指物，作定语；that可指人，也可指物，在从句中可作主语，也可作宾语；which指物，在从句中可作主语，也可作宾语。注意：whom, that, which在从句中作宾语时可以省略。请看例句：

1）The man who was here yesterday is a painter. 2) The man (who) I saw is called Smith. 3) I know the man (whom) you mean. 4) A child whose parents are dead is called an orphan. 5) I'd like a room whose window looks out over the sea. 6) A letter that is written in pencil is hard to read.

7) The letter (that) I received from him yesterday is very important. 8) Is he the man that sells eggs? 9) That is the boy (that) you are looking for. 2. When 指时间，where指地点，why指原因，在从句中都作状语。例如：

1) We will put off the picnic until next week when the weather may be better.

2) He has reached the point where a change is needed. 3) That is no reason why you should leave. 定语从句可分为限定性定语从句和非限定性定语从句两种。限定性定语从句一般紧跟在先行词的后面修饰、限定先行词，它与先行词之间没有逗号，去掉后会影响全句意思的完整性。非限定性定语从句用来解释、说明先行词或主句所指内容，与先行词之间用逗号隔开。

1) I like to chat with John, who is a clever fellow. 2) Water, which is a clear liquid, has many uses. 定语从句中的四级考点: 1.在下列情形下只能用that，而不能用which。

1)序数词或最高级形容词修饰先行词时：

a. The first English novel that I read was the Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. b. Tom is the most diligent students that I have ever known.

2) 先行词是不定代词或被All, everything, nothing, anything, something等不定代词修饰先行词时：

a. Mr. Green had told us something that we should do in the summer vocation.

b. I heard all that she told to her mother. 2. that, which 和as

非限定性定语从句中的先行词在从句中作主语指人、指物或主句所指代的一个意义时，引导词不能用that，而只能用which或

as。而后两者的区别是which引导的非限定性定语从句可放在句中和句末，却不能置于句首，as引导的从句既可放在句中、句末，也可置于句首。

a.

He once helped a woman, which(as) was reported in the newspaper. The dog, which(as) is black, is running toward the strange man. b.

As is known, the director of the company is going to come to our branch to have a inspection of the production here.

3. which和whom在从句中作介词的宾语时，介词一般放在二者之前，也可放在从句原来的位置上，在含有介词的固定词组中介词只能放在原来的位置上，而不能放在二者之前。

a. Please tell me from whom you borrowed the English novel.

Please tell me whom you borrow the English novel from. b. The house in which he lived before now becomes a restaurant.

The house which he lived in before now becomes a restaurant.

c. This is the magazine (that) you are looking for. 4. 介词＋which的结构可代替定语从句中的引导词when和where。

a. He was born in Germany where (in which) he stayed for 12 years. b. She arrived at 12 o’clock when (at which) it was raining hard. 5.but, than也可作关系代词。

a. You spent more money than was intended to be spent. b. There are very few but admire his talents.（很少有人不赞赏他的才干的。but = who don't）

从历年四级词汇语法考点中分析可知，定语从句出现的频率很高，主要集中在以上所讲的定语从句的特殊用法中，因此需重点掌握这些。此外，在做题和复习过程中要活学活用。
