Dear Scott:I liked it and I didn't. It started off with that marvelous description of Sara and Gerald (goddamn it Dos took it with him so I can't refer to it. So if I make any mistakes-). Then you started fooling with them, making them come from thing they didn't come from, changing them into other people and you can't do that, Scott. If you take real people and write about them you cannot give them other parents than they have (they are made by their parents and what happens to them) you cannot make them do anything they would not do. You can take you or me or Zelda or Pauline or Hadley or Sara or Gerald but you have to keep them the same and you can only make them do what they would do. You can't make one be another. Invention is the finest thing but you cannot invent anything that would not actually happen.That is what we are supposed to do when we are at our best-make it all up-but make it up so truly that later it will happen that way.Goddamn it you took liberties with peoples' pasts and futures that produced not people but damned marvellously faked case histories. You, who can write better than anybody can, who are so lousy with talent that you have to - the hell with it. Scott for gods sake write and-write truly no matter who or what it hurts but do not make these silly compromises. You could write a fine book about Gerald and Sara for instance if you knew enough about them and they would not have any feeling, except passing, if it were true.（看得出海明威很看好杰拉德的写作才华，但依然丝毫不客气的批评他身上的写作问题。）There were wonderful places and nobody else nor none of the boys can write a good one half as good reading as one that doesn't come out by you, but you cheated too damned much in this one. And you don't need to.In the first place I've always claimed that you can't think. All right, we'll admit you can think. But say you couldn't think; then you ought to write, invent, out of what you know and keep the people's antecedants straight. Second place, a long time ago you stopped listening except to the answers to your own questions. You had good stuff in too that it didn't need. That's what dries a writer up (we all dry up. That's no insult to you in person) not listening. That is where it all comes from. Seeing, listening. You see well enough. But you stop listening.It's a lot better than I say. But it's not as good as you can do.You can study Clausewitz in the field and economics and psychology and nothing else will do you any bloody good once you are writing. We are like lousy damned acrobats but we make some mighty fine jumps, bo, and they have all these other acrobats that won't jump. For Christ sake write and don't worry about what the boys will say nor whether it will be a masterpiece nor what. I write one page of masterpiece to ninety one pages of shit. I try to put the shit in the wastebasket. You feel you have to publish crap to make money to live and let live. All write but if you write enough and as well as you can there will be the same amount of masterpiece material (as we say at Yale). You can't think well enough to sit down and write a deliberate masterpiece and if you could get rid of Seldes and those guys that nearly ruined you and turn them out as well as you can and let the spectators yell when it is good and hoot when it is not you would be all right. Forget your personal tragedy. We are all bitched from the start and you especially have to hurt like hell before you can write seriously. But when you get the damned hurt use it - don't cheat with it. Be as faithful to it as a scientist-but don't think anything is of any importance because it happens to you or anyone belonging to you. About this time I wouldn't blame you if you gave me a burst. Jesus it's marvellous to tell other people how to write, live, die etc. I'd like to see you and talk about things with you sober. You were so damned stinking in N. Y. we didn't get anywhere. You see, Bo, you're not a tragic character. Neither am I. All we are is writers and what we should do is write. Of all people on earth you needed discipline in your work and instead you marry someone who is jealous of your work, wants to compete with you and ruins you. It's not as simple as that and I thought Zelda was crazy the first time I met her and you complicated it even more by being in love with her and, of course you're a rummy（酒鬼）. But you're no more of a rummy than Joyce is and most good writers are. But Scott, good writers always come back. Always. You are twice as good now as you were at the time you think you were so marvellous. You know I never thought so much of Gatsby at the time. You can write twice as well now as you ever could. All you need to do is write truly and not care about what the fate of it is. Go on and write. Anyway I'm damned fond of you and I'd like to have chance to talk sometimes. We had good times talking. Remember that guy we went out to see dying in Neuilly? He was down here this winter. Damned nice guy Canby Chambers. Saw a lot of Dos. He's in good shape now and he was plenty sick this time last year. How is Scotty and Zelda? Pauline sends her love. We're all fine. She's going up to Piggott for a couple of weeks with Patrick. Then bring Bumby back. We have a fine boat. Am going good on a very long story. Hard one to write. Always your friend Ernest

D'Arline I adore you, sweetheart. I know how much you like to hear that - but I don't only write it because you like it - I write it because it makes me warm all over inside to write it to you. It is such a terribly long time since last I wrote to you - almost two years but I know you'll excuse me because you understand how I am, stubborn and realistic; and I thought there was no sense to writing. But now I know my darling wife that it is right to do what I have delayed in doing, and that I have done so much in the past. I want to tell you I love you. I want to love you. I always will love you. I find it hard to understand in my mind what it means to love you after you are dead-but I stillwant to comfort and take care of you - and I want you to love me and care for me. I want to have problems to discuss with you - I want to do little projects with you. I never thought until just now that we can do that. What should we do. We started to learn to make clothes together - or learn Chinese - or getting a movie projector. Can't I do something now? No. I am alone without you and you were the "idea-woman" and general instigator of all our wild adventures. When you were sick you worried because you could not give me something that you wanted to and thought I needed. You needn't have worried. Just as I told you then there was no real need because I loved you in so many ways so much. And now it is clearly even more true - you can give me nothing now yet I love you so that you stand in my way of loving anyone else--but I want you to stand there. You, dead, are so much better than anyone else alive. I know you will assure me that I am foolish and that you want me to have full happiness and don't want to be in my way. I'll bet you are surprised that I don't even have a girlfriend (except you, sweetheart) after two years. But you can't help it, darling, nor can I - I don't understand it for I have met many girls and very nice ones and I don't want to remain alone - but in two or three meetings they all seem ashes. You only are left to me. You are real. My darling wife, I do adore you. I love my wife. My wife is dead. Rich. PS Please excuse my not mailing this -but I don't know your new address.

The Power of ExampleOften, when small children become bored and distracted, at home or in nursery school, adults will decide that they "need more structure." I tend to be wary of that term, since those who use it generally mean only one thing: some adult standing over the child telling him what to do and making sure he does it. Many young children do indeed need to be introduced to tasks and activities that take time, concentration, effort, and skill. But this isn't a matter of "giving" harder tasks and making the child persist until he or she is finished. In such situations the controlling factor is the will of the adult, not, as it should be, the requirements of the task. Instead, what young children need is the opportunity to see older children and adults choosing and undertaking various tasks and working on them over a period of time until they are completed. Children need to get some sense of the processes by which good work is done. The only way they can learn how much time and effort it takes to build, say, a table, is to be able to see someone building a table, from start to finish. Or painting a picture. Or repairing a bicycle, or writing a story, or whatever it may be. At the Ny Lille Skole, the wonderful small school in Denmark about which I have often written, the six adult "teachers" had all done many kinds of work before they began teaching, and all brought to the school a number of visible and interesting skills. One woman was a good musician and dancer, another a skilled weaver, several of the men were good at working with tools in both wood and metal. One teacher was actually making himself bass viol at the school. It took a long time: it was a serious instrument. Some of the older kids worked with him on the project; younger kids hung around, helped a little, asked questions; still younger children watched less attentively, for shorter stretches of time. But even the youngest children were aware of that project going on, and kept track of its progress. Children need to see things done well. Cooking, and especially baking, where things change their texture and shape (and taste yummy), are skills that children might like to take part in. Typing might be another, and to either or both of these could be added bookmaking and bookbinding. These are crafts that children could take part in from beginning to end. Skilled drawing and painting or woodworking might be others. Adults must use the skills they have where children can see them. In the unlikely event that they have no skills to speak of, they should learn some, and let the children see them learning, even if only as simple a thing as touch typing. They should invite children to join them in using these skills. In this way children can be slowly drawn, at higher and higher levels of energy, commitment, and skill, into more and more serious and worthwhile adult activities. When parents point out to me that their work is not as impressive in its progress as, say, that of a boat builder, I use my own work as an example While writing is less easy to understand than the work of a carpenter or farmer, it is not necessarily opaque or meaningless to a child. Writing is a process that takes place in time. I begin with raw materials and scraps of notes, write rough drafts, correct them, change them, finally produce a smooth draft, turn this over to someone else for further editing, and see it go into galleys or some kind of proof sheets and eventually find its way into the finished newspaper, magazine, or book. Even if what I write about might not make much sense to children they will surely be interested in many of the things I actually do. At every stage of the process outlined above, parents who are writers might show their child what they have done and talk a little (as much as the child wants) about what they are going to do next, and why. In the end, they could show the child their articles when they finally appear in print. They might even keep all their notes and rough drafts for a particular article, and on a big piece of cardboard paste up an exhibit showing everything from the first steps to the final product. This would also be an easy and interesting thing to do in schools; it would show students what none of them now know or could imagine-the amount of work that goes into serious writing. It is this sense of process over time that children want and need to learn about, and much of this is visible in most kinds of work. Even if parents can't show children their actual workplace, they can show them similar places. For instance, for the child of journalist, any small offset press would be fascinating: the noise, all those things going round and round, the paper flying out with stuff printed on it. A mystery! But children would see that a grown-up understands it and controls it, and thinks that maybe someday, if they wanted, they could too. They would also learn that their parents did not think of them as too small and stupid to be included in a central part of their own lives.大朋友们可以思考一下：你在生活中，如何一点点的用学徒式的方式，带着孩子学习的？

Multiply MilestonesHitting a milestone sparks pride. Think about how good it feels to flip through the stamps on your passport. Success comes from pushing to the finish line. What milestones do is compel us to make that push, because (a) they're within our grasp, and (b) we've chosen them precisely because they're worth reaching for. LEVEL 1: Commit to one violin lesson per week, and practice 15 minutes per day for six months. LEVEL 2: Relearn how to read sheet music and complete Celtic Fiddle Tunes by Craig Duncan. LEVEL 3: Learn to play "Concerning Hobbits" from The Fellowship of the Ring on the violin. LEVEL 4: Sit and play the fiddle for 30 minutes with other musicians. LEVEL 5: Learn to play "Promontory" from The Last of the Mohicans on the violin. BOSS BATTLE: Sit and play the fiddle for 30 minutes in a pub in Ireland. LEVEL1: Order meal in Spanish. LEVEL 2: Have a simple conversation in Spanish with a taxi driver. LEVEL 3: Glance at Spanish newspaper and understand at least one headline. LEVEL4: Follow the action in Spanish cartoon. LEVEL 5: Read a kindergarten-level book in Spanish. LEVEL 1: Try to squeeze in a Spanish study session. LEVEL 2: Try to squeeze in a Spanish study session. LEVEL 3: Try to squeeze in a Spanish study session. LEVEL 4: Try to squeeze in a Spanish study session.LEVEL 5: Try to squeeze in a Spanish study session. DESTINATION: Someday, eventually: "know" Spanish.Milestones define moments that are conquerable and worth conquering.

How many years ago does this story happen?故事发生在多少年前？Who did live among the trees?还有谁住在树林里呢？节选原文：Little House in the Big Woods - by Laura Ingalls Wilder(Word Count: 275)  Once upon a time, sixty years ago, a little girl lived in the Big Woods of Wisconsin, in a little gray house made of logs. The great, dark trees of the Big Woods stood all around the house, and beyond them were other trees and beyond them were more trees. As far as a man could go to the north in a day, or a week, or a whole month, there was nothing but woods. There were no houses. There were no roads. There were no people. There were only trees and wild animals who had their homes among them.Wolves lived in the Big Woods, and bears and huge wild cats. Muskrats and mink and otter lived by the streams. Foxes had dens in the hills and deer roamed everywhere.To the east of the little log house, and to the west, there were miles upon miles of trees, and only a few little log houses scattered far apart in the edge of the Big Woods.So far as the little girl could see, there was only the one little house where she lived with her father and mother, her sister Mary and baby sister Carrie. A wagon track ran before the house, turning and twisting out of sight in the woods where the wild animals lived, but the little girl did not know where it went, nor what might be at the end of it.The little girl was named Laura and she called her father, Pa, and her mother, Ma. In those days and in that place, children did not say Father and Mother, nor Mamma and Papa, as they do now.

We have seen that people who read a lot become good readers. The skill of reading is one of the benefits of keeping the company of authors (provided you see yourself as a member of the club). Authors have this collaborative role from the very beginning; they are the people who teach children to read. In other words, you learn to read by reading.

You don’t need to be a good reader in order to read a lot, but if you read a lot your reading ability increases. People who read a lot also understand better what they read, tend to be better writers and spellers, and tend to have better academic skills. If we encourage students to read more, it would take care many of the problems in school.

Do you know the number of words children have learned by the time they get to school at the age of five or six? If all parents and teachers were familiar with this figure they might have some understanding of how much learning children are capable of accomplishing without formal instruction, tests and all of the other rigmarole that goes along with our educational systems. The answer is that by the age of six children have a vocabulary of about 10,000 words.

Useful learning doesn't occur when we take time out of our normal lives and knuckle down to serious study. Learning is an inevitable part of our normal lives, and it only takes place, in any useful way, when we are in a normal frame of mind. The main thing we learn when we struggle to learn is that learning is a struggle.

用中文都已经不知道该怎么跟人聊天，就更不用说用英文聊天啦！用英文聊天，大家最担心的一个问题是：我应该说什么？你总为自己要表达的内容发愁，总担心自己不知道说什么，总感觉用英文聊天自己要说好多东西而压力山大。其实不然，要知道跟他人交流，最重要的并不是过多讨论自己，而是采取“与其让自己变得有趣，不如让自己对别人感兴趣”的策略（the strategy of being interested instead of trying to be interesting）。说的通俗一点，就是与他人对话的过程，重点不是你聊得爽，而是要让对方聊得开心。要知道，人总是喜欢谈论自己和被他人关注。所以，对话的核心策略是关注对方。我们结合北美地区的语言素材，用12节课让你掌握日常英语交流中的常见会话技巧：Lesson 1: How to start a conversation（如何展开会话）Lesson 2: How to keep the conversation going （如何将会话进行下去）Lesson 3: Showing interest or surprise （对对方的谈话内容表示兴趣或惊讶）Lesson 4: Review （复习课）Lesson 5: Saying 'no' in a friendly way （如何婉拒他人）Lesson 6: Checking information （如何核实信息）Lesson 7: Showing you understand （如何表达感同身受）Lesson 8: Letting another person decide （“随便”的英文表达）Lesson 9: Softening comments （如何委婉说话的语气）Lesson 10: Being a supportive listener （如何做一个好的聆听着）Lesson 11: Phone talk （日常电话用语）Lesson 12: How to end a conversation （如何结束对话）关注“读百万英语”公众号，回复关键词“会话技巧”，即可购买课程（39元）；或者添加客服微信号：dubaiwancs。

Physical Physical energy is the fundamental source of fuel in life. Physical energy is derived from the interaction between oxygen and glucose.The two most important regulators of physical energy are breathing and eating.Eating five to six low-calorie, highly nutritious meals a day ensures a steady resupply of glucose and essential nutrients. Drinking sixty-four ounces of water daily is a key factor in the effective management of physical energy.Most human beings require seven to eight hours of sleep per night to function optimally.Going to bed early and waking up early help to optimize performance.Interval training is more effective than steady-state exercise in building physical capacity and in teaching people how to re-cover more efficiently.To sustain full engagement, we must take a recovery break every 90 to 120 minutes.Emotional• In order to perform at our best, we must access pleasant and positive emotions: the experience of enjoyment, challenge, adventure and opportunity.• The key muscles fueling positive emotional energy are self- confidence, self-control, interpersonal effectiveness and em- pathy.• Negative emotions serve survival but they are very costly and energy inefficient in the context of performance.• The ability to summon positive emotions during periods of intense stress lies at the heart of effective leadership.• Access to the emotional muscles that serve performance depends on creating a balance between exercising them regularly and intermittently seeking recovery.• Any activity that is enjoyable, fulfilling and affirming serves as a source of emotional renewal and recovery.• Emotional muscles such as patience, empathy and confidence can be strengthened in the same way that we strengthen a bicep or a tricep: pushing past our current limits followed by recovery.Mental• Mental capacity is what we use to organize our lives and focus our attention.• The mental energy that best serves full engagement is realistic optimism—seeing the world as it is, but always working positively towards a desired outcome or solution.The key supportive mental muscles include mental preparation, visualization, positive self-talk, effective time manage- ment and creativity.Changing channels mentally permits different parts of the brain to be activated and facilitates creativity.Physical exercise stimulates cognitive capacity.Maximum mental capacity is derived from a balance betweenexpending and recovering mental energy.When we lack the mental muscles we need to perform at ourbest, we must systematically build capacity by pushing past ourcomfort zone and then recovering.Continuing to challenge the brain serves as a protectionagainst age-related mental decline.Spiritual Spiritual energy provides the force for action in all dimensions of our lives. It fuels passion, perseverance and commitment. Spiritual energy is derived from a connection to deeply held val- ues and a purpose beyond our self-interest.Character—the courage and conviction to live by our deepest values—is the key muscle that serves spiritual energy.The key supportive spiritual muscles are passion, commitment, integrity and honesty.Spiritual energy expenditure and energy renewal are deeply interconnected.Spiritual energy is sustained by balancing a commitment to a purpose beyond ourselves with adequate self-care.Spiritual work can be demanding and renewing at the same time.Expanding spiritual capacity involves pushing past our comfort zone in precisely the same way that expanding physical ca- pacity does.The energy of the human spirit can override even severe limitations of physical energy.

It's close to midnight and something evil's lurking in the darkUnder the moonlight you see a sight that almost stops your heartYou try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make itYou start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyesYou're paralyzed'Cause this is thriller, thriller night

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapes. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy whips out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps, "My friend is dead! What can I do?." The operator says "Calm down. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a shot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says "Ok, now what?"

  Do you ever read aloud? The chances are that you do not now read aloud. You used to read aloud when you were a small child. But you ceased to read aloud at fourteen or fifteen. If I’m not mistaken, among certain boys and girls late in their teens reading aloud is now a lost art.  You may protest, “What if I were to read aloud, when I do not read aloud and yet understand?” Well, much would come of read aloud. Reading aloud helps you to learn by heart, and learning by heart is essential to all who aim at writing well. Read aloud helps you to cultivate good pronunciation and good intonation, and good pronunciation and good intonation are essential to all language learners. Reading aloud helps you to discover certain beauties of language that you may fail to see in your silent reading. Unless you read aloud, you cannot learn to write naturally or or appreciate literature.  And I think that it is partly because they do not read aloud that many Chinese learners of English cannot read poetry. A certain English man of letters has said that a poem is not a poem until it is read; and evidently by “read” he means read aloud. A poem is something to be read aloud. There are many poems that you may learn to like and enjoy by reading them aloud, though you find several difficult points in them. On the other hand, you may understand a poem merely as you understand a piece of matter-of-fact prose, if you do not read it aloud. “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe, for example, is a very beautiful poem. But its beauty depends largely upon its wonderful music. Below is its first stanza. Try first to read it silently as though it were a business letter and then to read it aloud, and compare the two impressions.  Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,  Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,   While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,  As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.  “Tis some visitor, I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door -  Only this and nothing more.”

  Before reading on, please consider the following short sentence:  They cannot see enough of each other.  What do you think this sentence means? Well, please consider and consider before reading on.  This is a very easy sentence, indeed, and I think every English or American schoolboy or schoolgirl understands it. In fact, it occurs in a story-book for children. But I have been asked to explain it by a senior middle school student, who, so far as I can see, has studies English earnestly for years and has acquired a fair knowledge of grammar and rhetoric and a fairly large vocabulary.  Why, after all, does the student fail to understand this short sentence? My answer is that it is because its way of expression does not have its corresponding way in the Chinese language. There are many ways of expression in English that do not have their corresponding ways in Chinese. These are puzzling to most Chinese students of English.  The above-quoted sentence means that the two persons love each other so dearly that though they see each other often, they think they see each other but seldom. By the way, the of in the sentence also deserves attention.  “See enough of each other”means see each other often enough. “See much of you” means see you often.  In your reading you will do well to pay special attention to those ways of expression for which you do not find corresponding ways in Chinese. This will help you both in reading and in writing. I am sorry to find that many Chinese students do not realize the importance of doing this, with the result that while they can read English by Chinese authors and write long and tolerably grammatical essays, yet they may not be able to understand an Englishman’s social letter thoroughly or write a short paragraph purely idiomatic. 

I ask you this question. But I do not want you to answer me. I want you only to answer yourself. You might answer me falsely. You might answer anybody falsely. But you cannot answer yourself falsely. You do not need to answer yourself falsely.I do not suspect that your object  of studying English maybe a dishonorable one. It cannot be a kill a friend, nor to win your neighbor’s wife, nor to pick pockets in the street.Still your object may be one that you do not like to tell me or anybody else. It may be to please your parents, to be “modern”, to get through an examination as through a fever. Do you, reader, care to say so to me or anybody else?Whatever your object may be, you must feel free to tell yourself truly.However, I hope you are a serious student of English. I hope your object is a serious one. It may be to read the English classics in the original, to introduce the best in Western civilization into China, to help foreigners to understand what is now misunderstood of China and things Chinese.Whatever your object may be, you must aim at the ability to read general literature and to speak and write correct and idiomatic English.Question: Technology has become a part of us. Would you rather lose the use of all motorized vehicles, all telecommunication devices and computers, or one of your hands?

Let's talk about language learning!

Adopting a difficult goal means trying to achieve something very specific and very challenging. It’s the kind of goal you could reasonably expect to fail at, even if you try your best.Adopting a do-your-best goal means putting forth your best forth, without concern for the results. You generally hope to do well, but you have no specific expectations for what you might achieve.Adopting a strategy goal, on the other hand, means being determined to discover and master strategies that will help you be successful,. Instead of focusing on a specific outcome (as with a difficult goal) or a general effort level ( as with a do-your-best goal), you put your attention on learning and improving concrete skills and strategies that will help you do better in the future.
