第四册第三单元课文单词详解Lesson 3 Matterhorn man 马特霍恩山区人Modern alpinists try to climb mountains by a route which will give them good sport, and the more difficult it is, the more highly it is regarded. In the pioneering days, however, this was not the case at all. The early climbers were looking for the easiest way to the top because the summit was the prize they sought, especially if it had never been attained before. It is true that during their explorations they often faced difficulties and dangers of the most perilous nature, equipped in a manner which would make a modern climber shudder at the thought, but they did not go out of their way to court such excitement. They had a single aim, a solitary goal--the top!It is hard for us to realize nowadays how difficult it was for the pioneers. Except for one or two places such as Zermatt and Chamonix, which had rapidly become popular, Alpine villages tended to be impoverished settlements cut off from civilization by the high mountains. Such inns as there were were generally dirty and flea-ridden; the food simply local cheese accompanied by bread often twelve months old, all washed down with coarse wine. Often a valley boasted no inn at all, and climbers found shelter wherever they could--sometimes with the local priest (who was usually as poor as his parishioners), sometimes with shepherds or cheesemakers. Invariably the background was the same: dirt and poverty, and very uncomfortable. For men accustomed to eating seven-course dinners and sleeping between fine linen sheets at home, the change to the Alps must have been very hard indeed.【用作名词】the happy faces of these children这些孩子幸福的面容the unacceptable face of social drinking 社交聚会饮酒令人难以接受的一面(展示;方面) This season's squad has a lot of old faces in it. 本赛季上场队员中有很多老面孔。(具有某种特质或引发某种联想的)人the north face of the Eiger 艾格尔峰北坡(a vertical or sloping side of a mountain or cliff(山或悬崖的)陡面,斜坡)the front of a building 建筑物正面,外观面the obverse of a coin 硬币正面【用作动词】He turned to face her. 他转过身来面对着她。The house faces due east. 房子面向正东。The men had faced about to the front. 士兵们转过身来面对正前方。(士兵)向?转Honesty forced her to face facts. 诚实迫使她正视事实。(confront and deal with or accept 正视,面对;处理;接受)We must face up to the global impacts of our extravagant lifestyles. 我们必须勇敢面对奢华生活方式带来的全球性影响。Each defendant faced a maximum sentence of 10 years. 每一被告将面临最长可达十年的刑期。(have (a difficult event or situation) in prospect 将面临(难事,困境))If you were suddenly faced with an emergency, would you know how to cope? 如果突然面对紧急情况,你知道怎样应付吗?(of a problem or difficult situation) present itself to and require action from (someone).
