Music

　　Never did music more sink into and soothe and fill me --never so prove its soul--rousing power, its impossibility of statement. Especially in the rendering of one of Beethoven's master septets... was I carried away, seeing, absorbing many wonders. Dainty abandon, sometimes as if Nature laughing on a hillside in the sunshine; serious and firm monotonies, as of winds; a horn sounding through the tangle of the forest, and the dying echoes; soothing floating of waves, but presently rising in surges, angrily lashing, muttering, heavy; piercing peals of laughter, for interstices; now and then weird, as Nature herself is in certain moods --but mainly spontaneous, easy, careless --often the sentiment of the postures of naked children playing or sleeping. It did me good even to watch the violinists drawing their bows so masterly --every motion a study. I allowed myself, as I sometimes do, to wander out of myself. The conceit came to me of a copious grove of singing birds, and in their midst a simple harmonic duo, two human souls, steadily asserting their own pensiveness, joyousness.

　　參考譯文：

　　音樂從未如此滲透我的心靈，撫慰和充實(shí)我的心靈--從未如此顯示它喚醒靈魂的力量，它的不可言傳。尤其在演奏貝多芬的一首杰出的七重奏時(shí)……我神魂顛倒，目睹吸收了多少神妙之處。奔放而不失優(yōu)雅，有時(shí)恍如造化在陽光照耀下的山腰傲笑;蕭然執(zhí)著的單調(diào)重復(fù)，恍如風(fēng)聲颯然;號聲響徹縱橫交錯(cuò)的森林，繼而是漸漸消失的回聲;波浪平緩飄蕩，可是一會(huì)兒又洶涌澎湃，怒濤沖擊，隆隆作響，沉重有力;間隙傳來尖利洪亮的笑聲;偶爾怪誕，如同造化有時(shí)喜怒無常--不過大體還是自然而然，從容自在，無憂無慮--往往宛如赤身露體的孩童在玩�；虺了瘯r(shí)神態(tài)可掬。小提琴手弓弦舞動(dòng)?jì)故熳匀�，即使觀看也能使我受益--每一個(gè)動(dòng)作都有講究。我聽任自己忘我神游，有時(shí)我就是如此。我忽發(fā)奇想，有一個(gè)百鳥歡唱的富饒園林，啁啾嘀囀之間有個(gè)簡單和諧的一對，兩個(gè)人的靈魂，堅(jiān)定地道出了他們自己的憂思和歡樂。

　　總結(jié)：

　　先來看一下結(jié)構(gòu)吧，雖然是抒情文，但也有一定的結(jié)構(gòu)，從開始到演奏貝多芬的曲子那個(gè)是主題句，然后是一系列曲子的感受，最后呢，加了一點(diǎn)自己的想象。這里呢，稍稍和考試結(jié)合一下，如果在考試中碰到這樣的文章，幾乎看得云里霧里，我們先抓主題句，細(xì)節(jié)可以扔在一邊，如果后面的題目提到了，再到文章中去尋找相應(yīng)的地方，細(xì)細(xì)看一下。

　　單詞呢，大家都查了很多，蘋果推薦如果有興趣的朋友可以背誦這篇很優(yōu)美的文章，從文章中體會(huì)意境，熟悉一下英語的表達(dá)方式，或者多讀幾遍，你也會(huì)慢慢體會(huì)這些詞的用法。
