因为住在宿舍和最近睡眠的条件限制,每次都只是听回放,对此有点惭愧。很希望快快放寒假,就可以每天参与直播了QAQ还有下次不能再有procrastination了,当天笔记应该整理好的,就不会像现在整理这么匆忙了。
而且后面两天因为网络的问题来不及听了,正好只打卡了七天,明天没时间交,今天的空闲时间一直在写这个笔记……我先交了,等我有空补上……

二、每日打卡:
(11.12)You are a young man, Mr. Chipping, and Brookfield is an old foundation. Youth and age often combine well. Give your enthusiasm to Brookfield and Brookfield will give you something in return.
(11.13)Which was oddly incorrect(错得奇怪); because Chips was not a bachelor at all. He had married; though it was so long ago that none of the staff at Brookfield could remember his wife.
(11.14)For his marriage was a triumphant success. Katherine conquered Brookfield as she had conquered Chips; she was immensely popular with boys and masters alike.
(11.15)But she had not always pleaded for leniency(请求宽恕). On rather rare occasions she urged severity where Chips was inclined to be forgiving. “I don’t like his type(他那种类型的人), Chips. He’s too cocksure of himself(自以为是). If he’s looking for trouble I should certainly let him have it(让他吃苦头).”
(11.16)Where had they all gone to, he often pondered; those threads he had once held together, how far had they scattered, some to break, others to weave into unknown patterns?
(11.17)But instead of widening them to form a genuine inclusive democracy of duke and dustman, Ralston was narrowing them upon the single issue of a fat banking account.
duke and dustman 公爵或清洁工
引申:
Whether he is a plumber or president
Minister or manufacturer
(11.18)Stanfel was thirty years his junior, but the two men got on excellently.
Xx years his junior/senior 比他小/大多少岁
(11.19)From that last honour, within his reach at last, he shrank instinctively, feeling himself in so many ways unequal to it. He said to Rivers:”You see, I’m not a young man and I don’t want people to--um--expect a lot from me. I’m like all these new colonels and majors you see everywhere--just a war-time fluke(侥幸之喜). A ranker(ranker and file 普通士兵), that’s all I am really.”
三、喜欢的句子
A great joke, this growing old—but a sad joke, too, in a way. And as Chips sat by his fire with autumn gales rattling the windows, the waves of humour and sadness swept over him very often until tears fell, so that when Mrs. Wickett came in with his cup of tea she did not know whether he had been laughing or crying. And neither did Chips himself.
A hansom(马车) clop-clopping(马蹄声) in the roadway; green pale gas lamps flickering on a wet pavement; newsboys shouting something about South Africa; Sherlock Holmes in Baker Street. 简直像一幅电影画面。
The strange randomness of the world beguiled him, that randomness which never would, so long as the world lasted, give meaning to those choruses again.
I remember... I remember... but chiefly I remember all your faces. I never forgot them. I have thousands of faces in my mind-the faces of boys. If you come and see me again in years to come-as I hope you all will-I shall try to remember those older faces of yours, but it’s just possible I shan’t be able to-and then some day you’ll see me somewhere and I shan’t recognize you and you’ll say to yourself-”The old boy doesn’t remember me.” But I do remember you-as you are now. That’s the point. In my mind you never grow up at all. Never. 作为老师,孩子们永远是当年的模样。
He was a legend. With his old and tattered gown, his walk that was just beginning to break into a stumble, his mild eyes peering over the steel-rimmed spectacles, and his quaintly humorous sayings, Brookfield would not have had an atom of him different. 实体书封底的一段话,“万世师表”!
