昂立外语【新概念培训】分享clear这个词,大家一定知道clear 多用作adj. 清楚的,明亮的,来自新二L61 课文中 The Hubble is above the earth’s atmosphere, so it will soon be sending us the clearest(clear的最高级形式) pictures of the stars. 以及L81课文中He was rather elderly with grey hair and clear blue eyes.
那么clear有没有其他用法呢?让我们来看一下新二课文中出现的clear吧。
除了解释为“清楚的,明确的”以外,clear 作形容词,也可以解释为“无罪的,不亏心的”,新二L45的课文标题 A clear conscience
其实clear还可以用作动词,含义为“越过”。新二L43课中 The plane was then able to rise and it cleared the mountains by 400 feet.
回顾完新二课文,让我们一起来欣赏经典英语影片 The Lion King中的台词:He could clear the savanna after every meal.每次饭后他可以扫清大草原。真是霸气十足的lion呢!
在Alfred Tennyson 晚年最后的诗歌 Crossing the Bar(中文译名:渡沙洲) , 诗歌中体现clear.
Sunset and evening star,
and one clear call for me!
And may there be moaning of the bar,
when I put out to sea.
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
and after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
when I embark;
For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
the flood may Pilot face to face
when I have crossed the bar.
译本:(摘自丰华瞻 《中西诗歌比较》 )
天已幕,星已升,
呼唤我之声可闻。
我将出发入海,
但愿沙洲寂寂,没有呻吟。
愿潮水涨满,
轻轻流动,泡沫不扬。
本来从域外来的水,
将静静回到家乡。
黄昏到,晚钟响,
快要进入黑暗之乡!
但愿我出发时,
没有告别的悲伤。
潮水会送我到远处,
超出时间和空间的边境。
但我渡过沙洲后,
就会见到我的领路人。
这首经典之作不仅能显示诗人空前绝后的诗才,更能体现诗人面对死亡的超然心态。本诗暗指诗人在经历了人生的风霜后,平静地迎接死亡的来临,毫无恐惧和哀伤。
