A. 看英语(纯英文)名著需要注意些什么,希望大家给予些指点,现在在读《欧亨利短篇小说》
可以不要从古典小说读起,要读也找语言浅显易懂的读。比如说小王子,和老人与海一类语言相对朴实简洁的。至于欧亨利。。。。其实蛮难的,我看过简写版的,再看未缩写的,看完麦琪的礼物和那什么小偷的,就再也看不下去了。。。。。。。对不起了,大师!
意见有两点,一个小说最好读非名著浅显短篇小说,另一个选取全英文版本,不要双语注释。
其实现代短篇小说更贴近生活易懂,能提起阅读的兴趣。。。。这样慢慢把阅读能力提高以后再去读名著或许更合适些。基本看多了也不要经常查词典的。我就是读现代短篇小说开始的,古典的直到现在也就看了几本,实在是不能代入当时的情景(中文都没看好多,何况英文)。。。。
列举一下我看的较浅显的英文小说吧。。。。。我有部分小说的电子书,有兴趣来email。。。用户号即qq号,发qq邮箱即可
只说我自己看过的吧。我也比较喜欢看现代英文小说多些。
《小公主》---说的是一个小孤儿的故事,儿童文学。语言还算简单。我记忆中觉得有点长(可能是我第一个啃下的英文原著吧)。目前已改编成电影。(好像故事背景是近代的英国或法国)
《瓶中信》--有点老的纯爱小说,相当有名,中篇小说。。。。。语言依然简单,但是有人评论说语言很优美。内容不琼瑶。中年离婚女人和丧妻男人的因为一个漂流瓶引发的爱情故事。有电影的~(ps:故事时间发生的是现代的美国)
《三十九级台阶》--语言还算简单,有一些生词,中篇小说。以世界大战为(忘记是一战还是二战了)背景的侦探小说。我认为对那段历史不熟悉是我最主要的阅读障碍。也电影化了。
《夏洛特的网》--语言很简单的,因为是儿童读物嘛,篇幅不长,大概算短篇小说。猪和蜘蛛的友情,不过贵在内容很好。依然给力的电影化了。
《动物农庄》--偏政治题材的一部小说,中短篇的长度。作者虚构了一个农庄动物起义以后开始共产主义的故事。因为小说题材的严肃性给作者带来了很高的声望。嗯,其实还蛮好看的。生词不多。
《京华烟云》--林语堂原著(英文版)长篇小说,我没有看完的小说,看了一半,相当精彩呢。已电视剧化了。背景是中华大陆清末民国初的家族故事。有一定量生词,书也很有点厚度,出场人物众多。。。。。
《小王子》、《老人与海》--如雷贯耳的文,我也不能免俗了,推荐理由,文字清新朴实,表达的意义却能那么丰富,真让人惊奇。
以上的一些是我觉得还可以的电子书格式的,网上随便都能搜索到的。(京华烟云的可能少点)
------------------------------------------------
实体书部分
偏爱读实体书,但是好多已经出版的实体书都是经典小说,古典小说,我有那么一点兴趣缺缺阿。
《简。萨默斯的日记》--书荒时看的一本书,哎,说的是孀居中年女性和孤独的老女人的友谊。。。。。。。因为很多都是些心理描写,╮(╯▽╰)╭,我兴趣不大,中途放弃。。。。。。其实文字还是比较简单优美的,主要是我兴趣不大,也算是现代小说中比较有名的吧。
剩下的一些,我都是从图书馆搞到的现代小说,非名著,语言比较简单,叙事性比较强,篇幅很短。分别有两个系列我比较喜欢。
(1)南师——康乃馨英语文库(据说是面向初中生的。。。。。。。我雷。。。。。面对这套书回想一下,我初中的词汇量真小阿)
共7本书,相对都比较短,在50-200页左右,全英文读本无中文翻译。
《宝嘉康蒂》、《爱犬寻觅记》、《父辈的土地》、《可乐和吻》、《情系澳洲》(我个人认为最好看的一本)、《淘金路上》、《穆尔提默的涂鸦》。
(2)外研社·剑桥英语原创读物(好吧,总算有说是除了初中生也面向高中生,额,依然看得津津有味)
分级读物。这套的书更多些。题材更现代一点,更广泛,情节更精彩一点。有探险,侦探,爱情,科幻。高分级的读物相对篇幅也比较长。可惜我这里的图书馆收录的不全,目前我也只能看到大部分的小说而已。
冰冻的比萨、野兽传说、洛根的选择、阿姆斯特丹匪帮、丛林爱情故事、女督察洛根、永不离分、战争孤儿、出卖
-------------------------
另外实体书的话,有些出版社还出版了一些由老外缩写的名著。其实还是有看头的。篇幅也相对较短小,易读。老外缩的更原汁原味(主要是个荷兰人写的),比书虫的似乎更讨我喜欢,呵呵
------------------------
最后还有看看漫画,我喜欢看《丁丁历险记》(The Adventure of Tintin)。主要是字很少,哈哈。有出系列动画片。
另外,欧美的漫画取材也很众多,有一部漫画《远山的弃儿》(Freaks Of The Heartland),说了一个专出怪胎的村庄中兄弟俩的故事,故事很阴暗,倒也很温情。很有点深度的。。。。。
如果喜欢日漫,可以上网看日漫英文版。。。。。。。喜欢欧美漫也可以上网搜欧美漫(像《英雄》、《超人》、《蝙蝠侠》、《蜘蛛侠》都可以找到的)
B. 欧亨利短篇小说 英文
O. Henry stories are famous for their surprise endings. He was called the American Guy De Maupassant. Both authors wrote twist endings, but O. Henry stories were much more playful and optimistic.
Most of O. Henry's stories are set in his own time, the early years of the 20th century. Many take place in New York City, and deal for the most part with ordinary people: clerks, policemen, waitresses. His stories are also well known for witty narration.
Fundamentally a proct of his time, O. Henry's work provides one of the best English examples of catching the entire flavor of an age. Whether roaming the cattle-lands of Texas, exploring the art of the "gentle grafter", or investigating the tensions of class and wealth in turn-of-the-century New York, O. Henry had an inimitable hand for isolating some element of society and describing it with an incredible economy and grace of language. Some of his best and least-known work resides in the collection Cabbages and Kings, a series of stories which each explore some indivial aspect of life in a paralytically sleepy Central American town while each advancing some aspect of the larger plot and relating back one to another in a complex structure which slowly explicates its own background even as it painstakingly erects a town which is one of the most detailed literary creations of the period.
The Four Million (a collection of stories) opens with a reference to Ward McAllister's "assertion that there were only 'Four Hundred' people in New York City who were really worth noticing. But a wiser man has arisen— census taker—and his larger estimate of human interest has been preferred in marking out the field of these little stories of the 'Four Million'". To O. Henry, everyone in New York counted. He had an obvious affection for the city, which he called "Bagdad-on-the-Subway,"[1] and many of his stories are set there—but others are set in small towns and in other cities.
"A Municipal Report" opens by quoting Frank Norris: "Fancy a novel about Chicago or Buffalo, let us say, or Nashville, Tennessee! There are just three big cities in the United States that are 'story cities'—New York, of course, New Orleans, and, best of the lot, San Francisco." Thumbing his nose at Norris, O. Henry sets the story in Nashville.
"The Gift of the Magi" concerns a young couple who are short of money but desperately want to buy each other Christmas gifts. Unbeknownst to Jim, Della sells her most valuable possession, her beautiful hair, in order to buy a platinum fob chain for Jim's watch; unbeknownst to Della, Jim sells his most valuable possession, his watch, to buy jeweled combs for Della's hair. The essential premise of this story has been copied, re-worked, parodied, and otherwise re-told countless times in the century since it was written.
"The Ransom of Red Chief" concerns two men who kidnap a boy of ten. The boy turns out to be so bratty and obnoxious that the desperate men ultimately pay the boy's father two hundred and fifty dollars to take him back.
"The Cop and the Anthem" concerns a New York City hobo named Soapy, who sets out to get arrested so he can spend the cold winter as a guest of the city jail. Despite efforts at petty theft, vandalism, disorderly conct, and "mashing", Soapy fails to draw the attention of the police. Disconsolate, he pauses in front of a church, where an organ anthem inspires him to clean up his life—whereupon he is promptly arrested for loitering.
"A Retrieved Reformation" has safecracker Jimmy Valentine take a job in a small-town bank in order to case it for a planned robbery. Unexpectedly, he falls in love with the banker's daughter, and decides to go straight. Just as he's about to leave to deliver his specialized tools to an old associate, a lawman who recognizes him arrives at the bank, and a child locks herself in the airtight vault. Knowing it will seal his fate, Valentine cracks open the safe to rescue the child—and the lawman lets him go.
"Compliments of the Season" describes several characters' misadventures ring Christmas .
