1908年，诺斯克利夫勋爵拿出1,000英镑，作为对第一个飞越英吉利海峡的人的奖励。 In 1908, Sir L would reward the first person who would fly across the English Channel for 1,000. In 1908 Lord Northcliffe offered a prize of $1,000 to the first man who would fly across the English Channel.
然而一年多过去了才有人出来尝试。 However, the attempt occurred one year later. Over a year passed before the first attempt was made.
1909年7月19日凌晨，休伯特.莱瑟姆驾驶“安特瓦特4号”飞机从法国海岸起飞，但他只在海峡上空飞行7英里，引擎就发生了故障，他只好降落在海面上. 只好降落 - 我想‘迫降’更好 In the early morning of 7/19/1909, H set off 'A 4' from French coast, but he only flied over the Channel for 7 miles. As the engine's problem, he was forced to land above the sea.
On July 19th, 1909, in the early morning, Hubert Latham took off from the French coast in his plane the 'Antoinette IV.' He had travelled only seven miles across the Channel when his engine failed and he was forced to land on sea.
“安特瓦特”号飞机在海上漂浮，后来有船经过，莱瑟姆方才获救。 后来有船经过，莱瑟姆方才获救。--》 后来L被一艘船所救 Plane A had floated on the sea until the passing ship rescued L later. The 'Antoinette' floated on the water until Latham was picked up by a ship.
两天之后，路易斯.布莱里奥驾驶一名为“11号”的飞机来到加来附近。 Two days later, L drove the plane named '11' to C nearby. Two days later, Louis Bleriot arrived near Calais with a plane called 'No. XI'.
布莱里奥从1905年起便开始研制飞机，“11号”飞机是他制作的最新型号。 B had tried to make the plane since 1905 and No. 11 was his most recent model. Bleriot had been making planes since 1905 and this was his latest model.
一周以前，他曾成功地进行了一次26英里的陆上飞行。 A week before, he had been successfully made 26 miles flight. A week before, he had completed a successful overland flight during which he covered twenty-six miles. - 平常人不这样说话 。。。 Google translate -- A week ago, he had successfully completed a 26-mile overland flight.
但是莱瑟姆不肯轻易罢休。同一天，他驾驶一架新的“安特瓦特”号飞机来到了加来附近 Meanwhile, L had not given up and arrived near C with a new 'A' at the same day. Latham, however, did not give up easily. He, too, arrived near Calais on the same day with a new 'Antoinette'.
看来会有一场激烈的飞越英吉利海峡的竞争. It seemed that there would be an exciting crossing the Channel flight competition. It looked as if there would be an exciting race across the Channel.
两架飞机都打算在7月25日起飞，但莱瑟姆那天起床晚了 Both planes were going to take off on 7/25, but L got up late at that day. Both planes were going to take off on July 25th, but Latham failed to get up early enough
布莱里奥凌晨4点15分作了一次短距离试飞，半小时后便正式出发了。他这次伟大的飞行持续37分钟。 B made a short distance test flight at 4:15 am. He formally took off half hour later. This great flight lasted for 37 minutes After making a short test flight at 4,15 a.m., Bleriot set off half an hour later. His great flight lasted thirty-seven minutes.
当他在多佛着陆后，第一个迎接他的是当地一名警察。 When he landed on D, he was first welcomed by a local policeman. When he landed near Dover, the first person to greet him was a local policeman.
莱瑟姆一周以后也作了一次尝试，飞到离多佛不到半英里的地方。这次他又遭厄运，因引擎故障第二次降落在海面上。 L made another attempt one week later and he travelled to less than one mile away from D, but he was unlucky again, as the engine failed, he was forced to land on the sea second time.
Latham made another attempt a week later and got within half a mile of Dover, but he was unlucky again. His engine failed and he landed on the sea for the second time.

两百年前，拳击比赛在英国非常盛行。 Two hundred ago, boxing matches were very popular in England. Boxing matches were very popular in England two hundred years ago.
当时，拳击手们不戴手套，为争夺奖金而搏斗。 不戴手套 - 赤手空拳 At that time the fighter didn't wear gloves and fighted for the prize. In those days, boxers fought with bare fists for prize money。
因此，他们被称作“职业拳击手”。 Therefore, they were referred as ' Professional Boxer'. Because of this, they were known as 'prizefighters'.
- Prizefighter - a fight between two Professional boxer for money
不过，拳击是十分野蛮的，因为当时没有任何比赛规则，职业拳击手有可能在比赛中受重伤，甚至丧命。 However, boxing was very cruel, for there was no match rule at that time and the prizefighters might be hurt seriously and even lose their lives. However, boxing was very crude, for these were no rules and a prizefighter could be seriously injured or even killed during a match.
- injured vs killed - 对应
拳击史上最引人注目的人物之一是丹尼尔.门多萨，他生于1764年 One of the most famous people in boxing history was D, who was born in 1764. One of the most colorful figures in boxing history was Daniel Mendoza, who was born in 1764.
1860年昆斯伯里侯爵第一次为拳击比赛制定了规则，拳击比赛这才用上了手套。 Boxing didn't use gloves until K set the rules for the boxing in 1860. The use of gloves was not introduced until 1860, when the Marquis of Queensberry drew up the first set of rules.
虽然门多萨严格来讲不过是个职业拳击手，但在把这种粗野的拳击变成一种体育运动方面，他作出了重大贡献。是他把科学引进了这项运动。 Although D was technically a prizefighter, he devoted a lot to this as he changed a boxing into a sport for he brought science to the game.
Though he was technically a prizefighter, Mendoza did much to change crude prizefighting into a sport, for he brought science to the game.
门多萨在的全盛时期深受大家欢迎，无论是富人还是穷人都对他祟拜备至。 M was so popular that everyone admired him, no matter rich or poor. In his day, Mendoza enjoyed tremendous popularity. He was adored by rich and poor alike.

5/30/17 NCE3 L22 By heart 有些剧目十分成功，以致连续上演好几年 Me: Some plays are so successful that they perform for several years. NCE: Some plays are so successful that they run for years on end. ----on end，连续不断的。
这样一来，可怜的演员们可倒霉了。因为他们需要一夜连着一夜地重复同样的台词。 Me: In this way, the actors are very unlucky as they have to repeat the same lyrics every night. NCE:In many ways, this is unfortunate for the poor actors who are required to go on repeating the same lines night after night.
run - to continue being performed regularly in one place lines - words that someone has to learn and say as part of a play or performance
-----In many ways
人们以为，这些演员一定会把台词背得烂熟，绝不会临场结巴的，但情况却并不总是这样。 Me: We think these actors must have remembered by heart and won't be Sxxx, but this is not the case. NCE: One would expect them to know their parts by heart and never have cause to falter. Yet this is not always the case. --- We would expect them to know their parts by heart and never have cause to falter.
结巴 - 我认为在这不应翻译为结巴， 而因为吱吱唔唔 - falter
- stammer -口吃 he stammered most when he was nervous. -
- falter - speak haltingly - 在这强调的是说话不连贯， falter 没有口吃的意思 ---The actor faltered in the middle of the show --> 你不会用stammer
有一位名演员曾在一出极为成功的剧目中扮演一个贵族角色，这个贵族已在巴士底狱被关押了20年。 Me: There was a famous actor who performed in a very successful play as a xx role who had been in the B prison for twenty years. NCE : A famous actor in a highly successful play was once cast in the role of an aristocrat who had been imprisoned in the Bastille for twenty years. 贵族 - aristocrat in the role of…，充当……角色。 连派……扮演角色 - cast (cast, cast)

在最后一幕中，狱卒手持一封信上场，然后将信交给狱中那位贵族。 Me: In the last scene, a xx was on the stage with a letter and handed it to the aristocrat. NCE: In the last act, a gaoler would always come on to the stage with a letter which he would hand to the prisoner. 狱卒 - gaoler
尽管那个贵族每场戏都得念一遍那封信。但他还是坚持要求将信的全文写在信纸上。 Me: Despite of reading the letter in every performance/show, he still insisted in putting all the contents in it. NCE: Even though the noble was expected to read the letter at each performance, he always insisted that it should be written out in full. --- 还是主动实用一些， 在现实中老美说话也不太用被动
---- insist in xxx--- insist on 1、insist on/upon (sb/one's) (doing) sth ----You should insist on your dream. ----You should insist upon doing exercise every day. ----You should insist on her apologizing to you. 2、insist + that引导的宾语从句
1）如果insist翻译为“坚持说/坚持认为”，即that从句表示已经发生的动作时，则宾语从句使 用陈述语气，即从句该用什么时态就用什么时态，当然还要和主句时态保持呼应。 ---She insisted that she was right.
---She insisted (that) she had been to Beijing the year before.
2）如果insist翻译为“坚持要求/坚持主张”，即that从句的动作当时尚未发生的话，则宾语从 句必须使用虚拟语气，即从句谓语动词由“should + 动词原形”构成，且should可以省 略。 ---He insisted that she (should) say sorry to him first. 一天晚上，狱卒决定与他的同事开一个玩笑，看看他反复演出这么多场之后，是否已将信的内容记熟了。 Me: One night, the gaoler decided to make a joke with his colleague to see whether the prisoner could remember all the contents in the letter by heart after performing so many times. NCE: One night, the gaoler decided to play a joke on his colleague to find out if, after so many performances, he had managed to learn the contents of the letter by heart.记熟 -- learn the contents --- 不要总用remember ~~~~ find out --- see.....
大幕拉开，最后一幕戏开演，贵族独自一人坐在铁窗后阴暗的牢房里。 Me: When the curtain was pulled, the last act began. The aristocrat was sitting alone behind the iron window in a dark cell. NCE: The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. 大幕拉开 - ～～～～～The curtain went up ---无言 这句是我中文都写不出来的， 不用费事记了～～～～～

NCE: Even though the noble was expected to read the letter at each performance, he always insisted that it should be written out in full. --- 还是主动实用一些， 在现实中老美说话也不太用被动 ---- insist in xxx--- insist on 1、insist on/upon (sb/one's) (doing) sth ----You should insist on your dream. ----You should insist upon doing exercise every day. ----You should insist on her apologizing to you. 2、insist + that引导的宾语从句 1）如果insist翻译为“坚持说/坚持认为”，即that从句表示已经发生的动作时，则宾语从句使 用陈述语气，即从句该用什么时态就用什么时态，当然还要和主句时态保持呼应。 ---She insisted that she was right. ---She insisted (that) she had been to Beijing the year before. 2）如果insist翻译为“坚持要求/坚持主张”，即that从句的动作当时尚未发生的话，则宾语从 句必须使用虚拟语气，即从句谓语动词由“should + 动词原形”构成，且should可以省 略。 ---He insisted that she (should) say sorry to him first. 一天晚上，狱卒决定与他的同事开一个玩笑，看看他反复演出这么多场之后，是否已将信的内容记熟了。 Me: One night, the gaoler decided to make a joke with his colleague to see whether the prisoner could remember all the contents in the letter by heart after performing so many times. NCE: One night, the gaoler decided to play a joke on his colleague to find out if, after so many performances, he had managed to learn the contents of the letter by heart. 记熟 -- learn the contents --- 不要总用remember ~~~~ find out --- see..... 大幕拉开，最后一幕戏开演，贵族独自一人坐在铁窗后阴暗的牢房里。 Me: When the curtain was pulled, the last act began. The aristocrat was sitting alone behind the iron window in a dark cell. NCE: The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. 大幕拉开 - ～～～～～The curtain went up ---无言 这句是我中文都写不出来的， 不用费事记了～～～～～ ... NCE23这时狱卒上场，手里拿着那封珍贵的信。狱卒走进牢房，将信交给贵族。 Me: The gaoler came on the stage with the precious letter in his hand. He went into the cell and gave it to the nobleman. NCE: Just then, the gaoler appeared with the precious letter in his hands. He entered the cell and presented the letter to the aristocrat.
a gaoler would always come on to the stage with a letter which he would hand to the prisoner
但这回狱卒给贵族的信没有像往常那样把全文写全，而是一张白纸。 Me: But this time the letter wasn't written anything as usual. It was simply a blank piece of paper. NCE: But the copy he gave him had not been written out in full as usual. It was simply a blank sheet of paper.
狱卒热切地观察着，急于想了解他的同事是否记熟了台词。 Me: The gaoler watched eagerly and wanted to know whether his colleague had learned the contents by heart. NCE: The gaoler looked on eagerly, anxious to see if his fellow actor had at last learnt his lines.
贵族盯着纸看了几秒钟，然后，眼珠一转，说道：“光线太暗，请给我读一下这封信。”说完，他一下子把信递给狱卒。 Me: The nobleman looked at it for a few seconds and then 眼珠一转 said ' It is too dark. Would you please read it to me?' and handed the letter to the gaoler. NCE: The noble stared at the blank sheet of paper for a few seconds. Then, squinting his eyes, he said: 'The light is dim. Read the letter to me'. And he promptly handed the sheet of paper to the gaoler.
眼珠一转 - 我以为真的眼珠一转， 像孙悟空那样 ～～～
- squinting his eyes - 眯着眼睛 -- 这个我比较可以接受
Squint - abnormal alignment of one or both eyes; looking with the eyes partly closed 光线太暗 - dim is much better than dark ...
狱卒发现自己连一个字也记不住，于是便说：“陛下，这儿光线的确太暗了，我得去眼镜拿来。” Me: The gaoler found out that he could not remember a single word and said ' Your Majesty, it is indeed too dim to read. I need to bring a pair of glasses.' NCE: Finding that he could not remember a word of the letter either, the gaoler replied: 'The light is indeed dim, sire, I must get my glasses.'
他一边说着，一边匆匆下台。贵族感到非常好笑的是：一会儿工夫，狱卒重新登台，拿来一副眼镜以及平时使用的那封信，然后为那囚犯念了起来。 While he was speaking, he went down to the stage. What made the noble felt funny was when the gaoler was back to the stage with a pair of glasses and the regular letter, he read for the prisoner.
NCE: With this, he hurried off the stage. Much to the aristocrat's amusement, the gaoler returned a few moments later with a pair of glasses and the usual copy of the letter with he proceeded to read to the prisoner.

Gift of imperfect parenting - Chapter 9
Not as good as Screaming free parenting, but it is still worth to listen and very easy to follow. I expect I will finish this next week.
I can't believe it is almost July. My goal is far way ahead. I have passion about my current job, but at the same time more responsibility. There are a lot of room to grow... Way to go!
However, NCE3 is stuck in half way. I need to work on it start from today. Furthermore, get back to my workout schedule. Nothing can be more important than health.

I am very busy for work. I used to do not do overtime. Now all my attention and interested are works. I want to span my wheel to see how much I can do and see whether it can get what I want. This position is challenge, exciting and full of surprise. It is brand new experience for me. No matter how much I get, I believe I will learn a lot from it.
English is not as critical as before, but I will still work on it. But I will do it very slowly since many weekends will occupy by works. It is what it is. I will do whatever I can. One word or one sentence is better than nothing!

Redemption! What you owe is what you pay back. Money is probably the easiest thing to return, but guilt would like a poison sneak in your heart. The story didn't have too much surprised to me. 看了开头知道结尾。 Only few chapters left, I guess he will bring his brother son back to USA. We will see...

Kite Runner - Done!
It is a good story, but I don't like it. As I expected, the ending is sad. I don't like both main characters. One is selfish and one is blind royalty. The deep-rooted concept of class had embedded in both of them which I never enjoyed reading it. I have no interesting to read about the cruel of war because I can image how ugly it is. All these can only bring me anxious and nothing I can do. I'd better read something more practical and pleasant.
The following is how I feel about my trip base on NCE2 lesson 38 - Everything except the weather. It is not exactly how I feel but partial of it is true.
I had lived in America for more than a decade before I returned to China. I had often dreamed of returning in China and had planned to travel in the country within two years. Ten days ago, I finally got a chance to return for a business trip. Before arriving, I was so excited about the food. The fact was that I barely had my meal outside the hotel because of the high temperature. Almost immediately I began to complain about the weather, for even though it was in the early morning, it was hot and humid. After so many years of pleasant weather, I got a shock. I acted as if I had never lived in China before. I had hardly had time to get used to the weather when I finished the work and left the country. The dream I had had for many years ended there. I had thought of everything except the weather.

Lesson 24 A skeleton in the cupboard

NCE: We often read in novels how a seemingly respectable person or family has some terrible secret which has been concealed from strangers for years.

当读者到小说最后几页了解到书中女主人公，那位一向待大家很好的可爱的老妇人年轻时一连毒死了她的5个丈夫时，不禁会毛骨悚然。 ME: When we read the last few pages of the book, it is really scary to find out that the nice lovely old lady killed her five husbands when she was young. NCE:The reader's hair stands on end when he reads in the final pages of the novel that the heroine a dear old lady who had always been so kind to everybody, had, in her youth, poisoned every one of her five husbands.

这种事发生在小说中是无可非议的。尽管我们人人都有各种大小秘密。连最亲密的朋友都不愿让他们知道， 但我们当中极少有人有柜中骷髅。 ME: ???? Although everyone of us has all kind of small or big secrets which we don't want others to know even our closest friend, few of us has a skeleton in the cupboard.

To varying degrees, we all have secrets which we do not want even our closest friends to learn, but few of us have skeletons in the cupboard.

乔治年轻时学过医，然而，他后来没当上医生，却成了一位成功的侦探小说作家。 ME: George studied Medicine in his youth , but he didn't become a doctor but a successful detective writer. NCE: George studied medicine in his youth. Instead of becoming a doctor, however, he became a successful writer of detective stories.

有一次，我在他家里度周末，过得很不愉快。这事我永远不会忘记。乔治把我领进客房，说这间很少使用。 ME: Once I spent my weekend in his house and I had an unpleasant time which I shall never forget. George led me into the guest room and he said this room was seldom used.

他让我打开行装后下楼吃饭。我将衬衫、内衣放进两个空抽屉里，然后我想把随身带来的两套西服中的一套挂到大衣柜里去。 ME: He asked me to unpack my baggage and go down to have dinner. I put the shirts and underwear into two empty drawers and then I would like to hang one of my two suits to the cupboard. NCE: He told me to unpack my things and then come down to dinner. After I had stacked my shirts and underclothes in two empty drawers, I decided to hang one of the two suits I had brought with me in the cupboard.

我打开柜门，站在柜门前一下惊呆了。 ME: I opened the cupboard and was scared the hell out of me in front of the cupboard. NCE: I opened the cupboard door and then stood in front of it petrified.
Petrify -- scare the hell out of me/ scare the crap out of me /scare me out of my wits/scare the pants off(of) me

一具骷髅悬挂在眼前，由于柜门突然打开，它也随之轻微摇晃起来，让我觉得它好像马上要跳出柜门朝我扑过来似的。 ME: A skeleton was hung in front of me. Because the door was suddenly opened, it moved slightly and it made me felt it would jump towards me immediately. NCE: A skeleton was dangling before my eyes. The sudden movement of the door made it sway slightly and it gave me the impression that it was about to leap out at me.

我扔下西服冲下楼去告诉乔治。 ME: I immediately went down and told George. NCE: Dropping my suit, I dashed downstairs to tell George.

这是比“骇人听闻的秘密”更加惊人的东西，这是一具真正的骷髅啊！但乔治却无动于衷。“噢，是它呀！他笑着说道，俨然在谈论一位老朋友。“那是塞巴斯蒂安。你忘了我以前是学医的了。” ME: This was worse than a terrible secret. This was a real skeleton. But George did not have too much reaction. 'Oh that!' he said with a smile, like talking about an old friend. 'That is Sbasion. You forgot I used to study medicine.' NCE: This was worse than "a terrible secret'; this was a real skeleton! But George was unsympathetic. 'Oh, that,' he said with a smile as if he were talking about an old friend. 'That's Sebastian. You forget that I was a medical student once upon a time.'
