Lesson 5 No Room in the Ark 諾亞方舟無容身之地
The gorilla is something of a paradox in the African scene. One thinks one knows him very well.
For a hundred years or more he has been killed, captured, and imprisoned, in zoos. His bones have been mounted in natural history museums everywhere, and he has always exerted a strong fascination upon scientists and romantics alike. He is the stereotyped monster of the horror films and the adventure books, and an obvious (though not perhaps strictly scientific) link with our ancestral past.(暫不提供全文)
New words and expressions 生詞短語
(good article : five stars 該文寫得不錯。)
the + n.(s) 表示一類: the gorilla(s)
scene 場景
in the African scene : Africa as the background
gather palace 聚集地
something of a paradox 自相矛盾(人對猩猩的觀點) contradictory ideas about him
主題句：One thinks one knows him very well.
問題：Yet the fact is we know very little about gorillas.
Their ideas vary。人們對他的觀點相差很大。
For a hundred years or more 一百年甚至更多(包括一百年)
For more than one hundred years 一百多年
西方，動物一般用人稱代替。本文中，gorillas 用 him 代替。另外有：cat – she, dog – he .
imprisoned 關起來圈養
be mounted in natural history museums 陳列在自然歷史博物館
重點句型：
He exert a strong fascination upon(on) Sb. 施加給人們強大的魅力
exert … on … 施加(壓力)
impose … on … ,例如 impose influence on , impose pressure on
上句可表示為 He have a strong fascination for Sb.
或 The gorilla is always fascinating to Sb.
alike adv.相同，一樣 adj.只能做表語。例如：
The two are alike. 這兩人真像。
形容詞只要以 a 開頭，99.99%都做表語。不能做定語詞。
例如：asleep , awake ,afloat 等
He is the stereotyped monster of the horror films and the adventure books.
stereotyped – old time 老樣子horror films 恐怖片
film (英) movie (美)the stereotyped monster 經典模式
省略主語 and (he is) an obvious (…) link with our ancestral past
link with … 與…相聯系our ancestral past (n.)
through not perhaps strikly scientific
盡管話說回來，不是嚴格的科學概念
through 引導的從句主語和主句相同，可以省略。
Eg: I arrived at the meeting , though (I was ) late.
Yet 與 however ，表示轉折，意思完全相同。但 yet 用在句首，however 加標點，可以用
在自由位置。
重要句型：
No really satisfactory photograph has ever been taken of one in …
Take picture / photograph 照相
of one 定語后置，satisfactory photograph of one。主要是為了句子的平衡。One 指 gorilla
in a wild state 在野生狀態下
keep the … under … observation 把某事處于觀察之下
keep the city clean 保持城市清潔
close and constant observation 持續不斷的觀察
Eg: I have to keep the boy under close control.
To control the boy very strikly.

Eg: No man , however intelligent , is perfect.
No palace, however peaceful and tranquil , is a paradise.
lies buried here among the animals he loved so well
埋葬在他所鐘愛的動物中間
形容詞做狀語：lie awake , lie crouched
lifespan 壽命
how long the gorilla lives
因為猩猩的壽命客觀存在，所以 live 用一般現代時。
Organ’s decay 器官衰竭
Nor 引導否定并列句，與 unable 并列

智力：intelligence – IQ , intelligence qoutient
CIA – the Central Intelligence Agency of America

as much as 同 the same as
…remain a mystery the same as they were.
He is as much a musician as a writer.= He is both a musician and a writer.

中文中的“文明單位”不能用 civilized , 應該用 model 或 pace setting unit
I’m a pace soldiery。我是排頭兵。
The Abominable Snowman who haunts the imagination of climbers in the Himalayas is hardly more elusive.
那縈繞在喜馬拉雅山爬山者腦海中的那種令人難以捉摸的雪人，看起來也不一定比我們研究的大猩猩更加令人費盡心思。(通過側面比較，引出結論，一種有用的寫作方法)
Abominable Snowman 作比較，省略 gorilla
