Glastonbury Festival
09外5 In Britain music has a long history. People are so crazy about music that there are a lot of music festivals in Britain to share and enjoy the charming music. Among the music festivals, Glastonbury Festival is one of the most out-standing music festivals.
The Origin
Glastonbury was heavily affected by hippie ethics and free festival movement in the early 1970s, and began with the Isle of Wight Festival that features performances by The Who, among other artists. It was right this inspired Michael Eavis to host the first festival here which then called Glastonbury Festival. The festival took place in the open-air on the green fields because of the inspiration from Led Zeppelin concert happening in an open air, and retained vestiges of this tradition such as the Green Fields area which includes the Green Futures and Healing Field.
Simple Introduction
The festival takes place in South West England at Worthy Farm, a dairy farm for most of the year, which locates between the small villages of Pilton and Pylle, six miles east of the town of Glastonbury. The area has a number of legends and spiritual traditions and also is a “New Age” site of interest.
From 1970, Glastonbury Festival is held on the last weekend of June which lasts three days every year except some exceptions which make the Festival cancelled.
Every year when it comes to the hot summer, many colorful touring buses will fill the narrow road leading to the Worthy Farm covering about several kilometers length. However, people just can’t wait to get off the buses and straightly go to the farm burdened the heavy baggage but with the excitement on their faces. When you reach the farm, just look around and you will found the fields have been covered by a variety of beautiful and strange tents---camping tents, Indian type tents, yurt, also some similar to the tree houses ---which serve as their home for the coming four or five days.
If it’s so hot, the travel goers will put off their upper clothes. And even that one is bare doesn’t make a fuss to anyone, because people are all dressed in the all kinds of strange clothes, easern or western, colorful or different shapes. These modern musical nomads give their best shot to compete with each other on the design of tents, clothing exterior, and traffic tools. Some decorate their clothes with fluorescent tubes of different colors shapes, while others are dressed as the future men full of technology. There you can meet what you imagine but you can’t imagine what you meet. Everything is full of magic and so crazy.
The Feature Stages
As to the farm, besides the festival goers from different countries, the stage and some feature signs are also very out-standing and full of creation.
On 1971, the festiv al featured the first in carnation of the “Pyramid Stage” which was conceived by Bill Harkin. The “Pyramid Stage” is built b scaffolding and metal sheeting. Because of the building of the featured stage, the equipment and participants avoid suffering the rain and the wind with Modular Domes.
On 1981, Michael Eavis constructed a new Pyramid from telegraph poles and metal sheeting, which is a permanent structure doubling as a hay-barn and cow-shed during the winter.
On 1995, The Beatles designed a giant LOVE, which had the height of three people’s height. On the Letters, people painted different colors and different things which made the LOVE more beautiful. More interesting, some festival goers just sat or lay on the corners of the letters to cool themselves or feel the magic of love.
And also some other features such as the Stonehenge, the mud stage made the festivals not monotonous.
The Theme and Spirit
After the simple introduction of the origin and the features, it should to the most important --- the theme and the spirits of the festival.
The Passion.Festival goers release their passion and humanity thoroughly. People do things crazy that we are restrained to do by the principles as usual. Some festival goers are just bare waking through the crowded, some are dancing and creaming crazily as if there are nobody else, others just play in the mudding ground enjoying the joy with the nature.
Crazy Music .Every corner of the Worthy Farm, there are the elements of music. Of course, the rock performances on the “Pyramid Festival” and other performing stages are so exciting and fantastic that lead people waving their hands even jumping and dancing crazily. However the Glastonbury Festival is not for the only the performances, but also the interaction of both the singers and the audiences and also the music amateurs, who sing and dance in their own ways in their small stages. They invite the passers-by join them indulge themselves in the music forgetting everything around.
There, as long as you have good idea and take the initiate, everything will happen; there, you are not a culture receiver any more who dances along with others, but the active people who create by yourself.
Nothing-can-stop. You know, nothing can stop them from enjoying music. Nothing! Because of the special place---the dairy farm and the special climate---much rain, when it is caught in continued periods of rain, it’s muddy here and there. For many times, it rains heavily, but as long as there is any room to stand to join the festival, and as long as it continues, they are there. Nobody is frustrated by the bad weather, the smile is still there. That is the spirit of Festival---Nothing can stop them enjoying music.
The Donation. Although in the first several years, it is free. But later people should pay money for the tickets. However, Rock spirit of the forty years, has made the Glastonbury Festival harmonious communication between the commerce and the modern music
Glastonbury Festivals donates most of their profits to charities, which include
donations to local charity and community groups and paying for the purchase and restoration of the Tithe Barn in Pliton.
Glastonbury Festival gives both the singers and the festival goers a chance to release their inner passion. People rush to the grasses and the mud to enjoy the pleasure of music.

Helen Keller Zhang Chu (09yingjiao1-35) Abstract：This passage shows about a blind deaf author and educator—Helen Keller. When she was half a year old, an unexpected disaster happened to her which made her forfeit the instinct for living. After that, this little girl became isolated to the vivid and dramatic world. However, in the darkness and a lonely world, she didn't give up and never surrendered to fate. With the help and encouragement from her teacher Anne Sullivan, she overcame all the sufferings caused by the physical defects tenaciously. She learned to speak and study, and began to communicate with others. When she was 24, she graduated from Radcliffe College, Harvard University and became a knowledgeable famous writer and educator, who got hold of five languages. Helen’s life is extraordinary and she gave us great encouragement. She taught us to cherish our health and this wonderful time. Key words: Helen Keller, Anne Sullivan, love, encourage, breakthrough, success 1.

Her family lived on a homestead, Ivy Green, which Helen's grandfather had built decades earlier. Helen's father, Arthur H. Keller, spent many years as an editor for the Tuscumbia North Alabamian and had served as a captain for the Confederate Army. Helen's mother, Kate Adams,was the daughter of Charles Adams. Helen's paternal grandmother was the second cousin of Robert E. Lee. In a word, hose in Helen’s family members had extraordinary position, which gave a superior foundation for Helen’s success in defeating the suff erings. Helen's father's lineage can be traced to Casper Keller, a native of Switzerland. Coincidentally, one of Helen's Swiss ancestors was the first teacher for the deaf in Zurich. It might be another helpful factor for her to overcome the troubles.(1998:1-2) 1.2Education background
An Analysis of the Design of the First Assembly in Pride and Prejudice [Abstract] In Pride and Prejudice, the first assembly is the stage of the debut of hero, Darcy and the heroine, Elizabeth. Therefore, the design of this assembly, including which part of the assembly should be narrated directly in the description of the assembly, how to do with other things happened during the party, how to shape the characteristics and personality of the two main characters as well as other important role on the assembly, is essentially significant to the character portrait for the whole novel. Mainly employing description of language and technique of comparative description, the plot about this assembly is well-designed as three parts, before, during and after the assembly, which is efficient to the character figuring of the novel. [Keywords] character figuring, design, description of language, comparative description The novel introduces the first assembly in Chapter 3, using only half of a chapter to directly describe things happened on the party while two other whole chapter to show people’s discussion on it. By the delicate design, vivid language description and useful comparative description, the description of this party is highly efficient to the chapter portrait of this novel. Before the party, Mrs. Bennet’s worry about Mr. Bingley’s going into the town is showed, which totally reveals the purpose of Mrs. Bennet’s participating in the dinner, again echoing the description of Mrs. Bennet’s saying "If I can but see one of my daughters happily settled at Netherfield, and all the others equally well married, I shall have nothing to wish for." (Austen, 2001: 2) at former plot. In the case, the assembly is platform to looking for sweetheart, love and even possible marriage (Yang, 91). At the end of this paragraph, Mr. Bingley’s invitating his sisters and Darcy leads to the appearance of these important characters. For the description of things happened during the party, instead of using scene description to the setting of the ball or psychological description to the participators, language description organized by comparative technique is mainly employed to mould different personality of different participant. First of all, It can be directly seen that the description of Mr. Hurst’s and Mr. Darcy’s first appearance is put in the same paragraph and connected by the conjunction “but”,

浅析伊丽莎白时代的文化辉煌 她是英国历史上最杰出的帝王之一，她使英国成为欧洲最强大的国家之一，开创英国历史的“黄金时代”，保持了英格兰的统一，人们至今崇拜着她，称之为“荣光女王”、“英明女王”，并以其名来命名那个时代。在第二个千禧年来临之际，她亦曾被推选为100位对世界历史影响最大的人物之一。她就是伊丽莎白一世——都铎王朝最后一位君主，英格兰文化正是在她的手中迎来辉煌。 1558年，伊丽莎白一世在内部因宗教分裂的混乱状态中即位，采取宗教兼容政策和重商主义政策，稳定了统治，工商业和海外贸易迅速发展，国力日益强盛，击溃了不可一世的西班牙“无敌舰队”，成为海上霸主，为未来“日不落”的大不列颠王国奠定了基础。此时的英格兰也正处于文艺复兴时期，人文主义遍布英国的思想领域，各个文学大家以莎士比亚，斯宾塞，约翰逊，马洛，培根等为代表，佳作竞出。由此，英国文学代表了欧洲文艺复兴文学的最高成就。那么为何英国文化能在伊丽莎白一世手中开启“黄金时代”呢？ 伊丽莎白时代的文化繁荣主要体现在诗歌和戏剧的繁荣上（当然也不排除其他文学、艺术形式的发展繁荣）。下面仅以诗歌和戏剧上的创作为例，浅谈当时的文化盛况。 在诗歌方面，英国文学家们，除了引入意大利的十四行诗，也进行了一些其他诗体的创作，在内容和格局上都有了很大突破。诗歌方面又以斯宾塞成就最大。他的主要作品《仙后》规模宏大﹐内容丰富﹐利用中古骑士传奇的体裁﹐以寓言为主要手法﹐在精神上却反对天主教而歌颂作为英国民族象徵的伊丽莎白女王﹐其中优美而多变的韵文﹐使得斯宾塞不仅独步当时诗坛﹐而且成为后世讲究诗艺的作家所仰慕的“诗人的诗人”。在主题或歌颂对象方面，英国诗歌也和欧洲其他经历文艺复兴的国家一样，着重描写人的内心世界，抒发理想、信念、感情，鞭挞黑暗、腐败，赞扬人追求幸福的权利，赞颂美和爱。此外，彻底改变英国诗歌面貌的主力军却是——白体诗。它主要包含在戏剧创作之中，其代表人物则是两位伟大的戏剧家和诗人——马洛和莎士比亚。 戏剧无疑是英国这一时期最骄傲的文学成果。16世纪80年代起﹐英国戏剧家们摆脱了中世纪神秘剧﹑奇迹剧等的宗教色彩和粗糙技巧，建立起了一种新戏剧，赋予其更加丰富的表达和人文气息﹐敏锐﹑强烈地表达了时代精神﹐在艺术上作了多方面的大胆创新。以《浮士德博士的悲剧》为代表作，马洛一生创作了7部悲剧。而作为英国文艺复兴高潮时期的著名的代表人物，英国戏剧的集大成者——莎士比亚，一生共创作了37部剧本，《罗密欧与朱丽叶》、四大悲剧等作品皆是人类文学史上不朽的明珠，它们探讨了友谊和虚伪、爱情和阴谋、权利和道德、生存和死亡这些与人的命运息息相关的主题。那些生动
Interpretation of “Bartleby” 2012 English Class, 1204402019, Crush Abstract Herman Melville?s tale “Bartleby”is one of those highly acclaimed symbolic short stories in the 19th century. Bartleby is an exploited worker in the capitalistic prison—Wall Street. To some critics, he is “a Thoreau-like practitioner of passive resistance”or “an autobiographical projection of Melville as alienated author.”1In this article, I am going to concentrate on the dark, ruthless commercial society and its defective capitalist values the narrator wants to reveal in “Bartleby”; specifically, I will illustrate how the narrator?s failure to understand the existence of Bartleby and to help him indicates the limitations of rationalism. Further more, I will also try to explain what does Bartleby really need, and how can people really save him from terrible forlornness. Key words Bartleby society limitation rationalism capitalist values Melville?s “Bartleby”is narrated by the first-person narrator, as he describes himself, is “a man who, from his youth upwards, has been filled with a profound conviction that the easiest way of life is the best…one of those unambitious lawyers who never addresses a jury, or in any way draws down public applause; but in the cool tranquility of a snug retreat, do a snug business among rich men?s bonds and mortgages and title-deeds.” He is quite satisfied with his profitable life. He is proud of himself in his successful business and proudly attached that he was once employed and praised by John Jacob Astor: “All who know me consider me an eminently safe man. The late John Jacob Astor, a personage little given to poetic enthusiasm, had no hesitation in pronouncing my first grand point to be prudence; my next method.”The narrator is a typical business man of Wall Street—the epitome of the increasing urbanized, capital-driven society. The author does not set Wall Street as the backdrop randomly, but uses it 1(journal articles) Y on-jae Jung, “The Poe-esque Elements in Melville?s…Bartleby the Scrivener?”, Foreign Literature Studies 4 (2009), p. 63.

英国历史文化 现代世界的一个突出特征是许多国家都形成了宗教信仰多元化的现实，其中包括英国。英国宗教信仰多元化的问题不但反映了这个国家宗教文化的历史进程，更重要的是从一个侧面说明了宗教与、经济、、民族等问题的密切关联，这些关联又证实了宗教在现代世界各国的重要意义所在。但是，从我们掌握的情况看，国内有关英国宗教问题的研究成果很少，而专门研究英国宗教多元化问题的论着还没有见到。因此，研究、分析和了解英国宗教多元化的历史成因、表现及其特点（注：本文为教育部重点研究基地重点项目“现代欧美人口迁移与宗教多元化”的阶段性成果。），不但具有历史学科价值，也具有现实意义。 历史上宗教信仰多元化的起源与发展 1054年基督教公开分裂为天主教和东正教以后，英国原本也是一个天主教国家。1529年，都铎王朝的亨利八世以教皇不同意他与王后离婚为由开始与罗马教廷走向决裂。与罗马教廷决裂后的英国教会称“安立甘宗(Anglican Communion)”，又称“圣公会(Anglican Churches)”，具有国教的地位。由于英国与罗马教廷的决裂是经由亨利八世的改革来进行的，而且亨利八世并没有宣布放弃天主教信仰，改革后的英国国教保留了主教制等天主教传统，安立甘教成为一个既有罗马天主教传统、又有新教特点的教派。由于国教内部对天主教残余问题存在不同看法，加之其他新教教派观点和思想的传入，使英国宗教从近代开始出现了多元化的趋向。 首先，英国安立甘教本身分为“高教会派”和“低教会派”两大教派。所谓高教会派，又称“安立甘公教派”，也可以翻译为“英国天主教”，英语为Anglo-Catholicism，主张天主教传统礼仪和教义，但提倡改革教会；所谓低教会派，又称“安立甘宗福音派”，也有人翻译为“福音新教”，英语为Anglican Evangelicals，强调个人悔改和虔修，注重在圣公会中保持新教传统，贬低天主教礼仪和教义的重要性。尽管英国所有的安立甘教派，包括扩散到英国国外殖民地上的安立甘教派都以坎特伯雷大主教为精神领袖，但在对待天主教及其传统的态度等问题上存在分歧，所以，安立甘教内部的多元化已成事实。 其次，在宗教发展史上，英国安立甘教经历了曲折的历史发展过程，其中包括爱德华六世时期的改革、血腥玛丽时期的天主教复辟、伊丽莎白时期的恢复国教统治，最后，终于发展成为一场对英国宗教、政治，乃至经济都发生重大影响的内战。由
每个城市都有其独特的特点，有的是文明都市，有的是工业化城市，有的则是现代化大都市，有的亦是历史文明的古都。不管是怎么样的城市，都用独特的魅力吸引着众人们，伦敦是世界上的经济发达、历史悠久、又充满现代化气息的文明大都市。每年吸引着大量的游客 总体来说，是因为伦敦的文化底蕴和现代化气息合理的融入在这个城市里。其作为英国的首都，也是作为世界上出名的城市，不论是经济上的发达，还是文化上的独特，总用其独特的味道吸引着大量的游客慕名而来。是不是你也有一个伦敦梦呢？我想很多人都和我一样想去伦敦，好好的欣赏一下是什么样的环境造就了工业文明的开始，又是什么样的原因成就了伦敦的文明。 明等领域上的卓越成就，成为全世界最大的都市。伦敦是英国政治中
伦敦的星期天，不是所有的商店都停止营业，但是大多数（尤其是个人的）徽闭店所有的剧场和大多数电影院也都关门。因为伦敦人都喜欢在星期天出城去郊游。在英国，尊重妇女是体现绅士风度的一个重要方面。女士优先是一个人人皆知的行为准则。英国社会非常有制度，插队会遭到所有人的鄙视和白眼。事实上他们不会有人这样做.英国人的时间观念较强。对安排好的约会一定要准点。在英国，送礼时最好送较轻的礼品。由于所费不多就不会被误认为是一种贿赂。英国人也象其他大多数欧洲人一样。喜欢高级巧克力、名酒和鲜花。对于饰有客人所属公司标记的礼品，他们大多并不欣赏。在英国购物，最忌讳的是砍价。英国人不喜欢讨价还价，认为这是很丢面子的事情。如果你购买的是一件贵重的艺术品或数量很大的商品时，你也需要小心地与卖方商定一个全部的价钱。英国人很少讨价还价，如果他们认为一件商品的价钱合适就买下，不合适就走开。另外英国人见面时不爱讲个人私事，而爱谈论天气，否则会受以冷遇。不是爱谈论天气，而是以天气为开头，化解都不说话的尴尬场面。还有些很有趣的事情：在英国，如果戴口罩上街，人们会认为是传染病者跑出来了，也许还会有人叫救护车；如果翘起大拇指那是拦路要求搭车之意。还有就是千万不要问女士的年龄. 伦敦有很多地标性建筑物。包括白金汉宫、大本钟，伦敦眼，塔桥，圣彼得大教堂等。很多人也会去欣赏一下英国的喜剧演出表演。
