than the discussion. But it's fairly rare that no one likes the book, and it gets quire interesting when opinions about it are divided. M And what sort of books do you read? C：Oh, all kinds, actually, not just novels, although I must admit that being a member of the club makes me read more modern fiction than I might do otherwise. But we also read the classics, you know the novels we all read or should have read 30 years ago, and it's quite good fun to revisit them, to see if our views of the books have changed. We re-read Thomas Hardy recently, and whereas I used to love it when I was a student, this time I thought it was exasperatingly（惹人恼火地） dull. And we read non-fiction. quite a lot of history and travel writing. A couple of the members like poetry, which I don't, but you know, we're tolerant each other's choice, and it gives us a chance to try things we wouldn't usually read. M：And how do you choose the books? C：Well, at the end of the evening the person who hosts the dinner-basically, the cook- has the right to choose the next book. M：And that works OK?

C：Yes, although there's quite a lot of stress on choosing something that will earn everyone else's respect. And we've got one member who likes science fiction, so we try not to go to his place too often!

你的书组有多久了？

C：嗯，让我看看，这是现在的20年。我觉得这是一个最古老的书籍组周围，因为它只有大约20年前，他们开始在英国成为时尚。

男：你多久会有一次会议？

C：我们会每四周或五周后，尽管我们尽量避免在暑假的会议，在助跑（前奏，预备期）圣诞节的时候，我们都开始忙于其他事情。

男：你有多少会员？

我们是十个，虽然大家都能参加，但这很少见。

男：在会议期间会发生什么？

C：嗯，我们通常在我们家见面，我们开始比较晚，8:30左右，和主人准备晚餐，在吃饭的时候，有人问“你怎么看这本书吗？”和TH讨论开始时。

男：听起来挺随便的。

是的，有时如果我们不喜欢这本书，这顿饭就更重要了。但它是相当罕见的，没有人喜欢这本书，它会很有趣当OPI它分为观点。

我和你有什么样的书？

哦，各种各样的，事实上，不只是小说，虽然我必须承认，俱乐部的一个成员让我读更多的现代小说比我可能会做其他。但我们也读过经典，你知道的他小说我们都读或应该已经读了30年前，这是相当不错的乐趣，重新审视他们，看看我们的看法的书籍已经改变。最近我们读托马斯的书，而我以前也曾用过爱的时候我是一个学生，我认为这是非常沉闷（惹人恼火地）。我们读非小说。相当多的历史和旅行写作。一对夫妇的成员，如诗歌，我这样做不，但是你知道，我们彼此宽容，这让我们有机会尝试一些我们通常不会读的东西。

男：你怎么选择这些书？

晚上好的，基本上主人的人，厨师有权选择下一本书。

男：这行吗？

是的，虽然有很多的压力，在选择的东西，将赢得别人的尊重。我们有谁喜欢科幻小说的一个成员，所以我们尽量不去他的地方太多EN！

Well, thank you for your kind welcome, and for giving me the opportunity to give this brief tour of Literary England. I can't claim it's an authoritative tour, as I'm, not a professional literary specialist. However, I have two amateur passions: one is travel and the other is reading and English literature in particular. And this lecture is a description of different visits I have made to places in Britain and Ireland, chosen specifically for their close links with well-known writers of what we call the classics of English literature.

Just to give you an overview of the lecture, I'm going to start in my home town of London, which is also the home of many well-known writers. But I think that the picture we have in our mind of London has been largely fashioned by the work of Charles Dickens and Shakespeare. Dickensian London is illustrated most clearly by his book Oliver Twist, and Shakespeare's London brings to mind the plays written and performed here, such as Romeo and Juliet. We'll also have a look at the memorial of freat British writers, Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey.

Then off we go to Oxford, another city rich in its literary history. I'm, going to focus on the greatest of Oxford's literary alumni, JRR Tolkien, the professor of English who wrote Lord of the Rings, which is now famous throughout the world because of the recent series of films. Then we turn south towards the gentle countryside of Hampshire, home of Jane Austen, where her various novels, including Price and Prejudice are set. She also spent a period of her life in the magnificent Georgian city of Bath.

Then we turn north to the hills of west Yorkshire where we find Bronte country, so called because it was the home of the three sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte. Perhaps the two best known novels are Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyer, and Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights, also made into successful films.

Then up to the north-west, to the stunning land of mountains and lakes which is the Lake District, home of the Lakeland poets. Perhaps its most famous son is William Wordsworth, whose poem \just in Britain, but around the English-speaking world.

So that's the basic route round Literary England, although I'll be thinking several detours to visit other famous writers whose work contributes to the glory which is English literature. Let's start…

好的，谢谢你的欢迎，并给我机会，让这个短暂的英国文学之旅。我不能说这是一个权威的巡回演出，因为我不是一个专业的文学规范社会主义。然而，我有2个业余爱好：一个是旅游，另一个是读英语文学，特别是英语。这是我对我所做的不同访问的描述英国和爱尔兰，特别是与我们所称的英国文学名著的著名作家的紧密联系，选择了他们的作品。

只要给你一个概述的演讲，我将开始在我的家乡伦敦，这也是许多著名作家的家。但我认为我们在伦敦的脑海中的画面狄更斯查尔斯和莎士比亚的作品在很大程度上都是由作品所塑造的。狄更斯的伦敦是最清楚的说明了他的书奥利弗，和莎士比亚的伦敦给心灵带来的是WR伊顿和在这里的表现，如罗密欧与朱丽叶。我们也会在伟大的英国作家的纪念馆一看，诗人角威斯敏斯特教堂。

然后我们去牛津，另一个城市丰富的文学史。我将重点放在最大的牛津文学的校友，托尔金，英国人写魔戒教授，这是因为最近的一系列电影而闻名于世的。

然后，我们转向南部的温和的乡村，简奥斯丁，在那里她的各种小说，包括价格和偏见的家庭。她还花了一段她人生中的辉煌百分之格鲁吉亚城市浴。

然后我们把北到西的小山，我们发现勃朗特国家，所以称为因为它是三姐妹的家，夏洛特，艾米丽和勃朗特安妮。也许是最知名的两个月ELS是夏洛特勃朗特的简爱，和艾米丽勃朗特的呼啸山庄，也成为成功的电影。

然后到西北，到高山和湖泊，湖区迷人的土地，湖畔诗人的家。也许它最著名的儿子是华兹华斯威廉，他的诗“我漫步孤独是一种云：在英国，孩子们不仅在英国，而且在讲英语的世界。

所以这是英国文学的基本路线，虽然我会考虑一些弯路，去拜访其他著名的作家，他们的作品有助于英国文学的辉煌。让我们开始…

London has always prided itself on being a little bit different when it comes to fashion. At the catwalk shows, designers showcase the hottest new trends for journalists and buyers from all over the world. But away from the glamour of designer collections, what do London girls actually wear? How do they create the affordable, personal style they are famous for? Hannah, who works for a fashion magazine, says London’s unique style is all about mixing and matching. One day can be punk. Next day you can be really girlie（少女般的）. It’s kind of choosing what you want in your wardrobe. Maybe taking an expensive piece but mixing it with something cheaper or second-hand. I think that is what London girls are really good at doing. Portobello Road, in the trendy Notting

Hill area, is home to one of the most famous markets in London. Here, you name it and people wear it-anything from market stall bargains to to-die-for（令人渴望的） designer labels sold in trendy shops. But how do the capital’s women view their style? Eclectic. My style is certainly eclectic. It is from Tesco. It is the Catherine Kidston range from Tesco. Sam is matched her outfit today with a bag she bought in a supermarket. Angela is a fashion stylist. So tell me a little bit about your life. What are you wearing and what would you say your style is? My style tends to change week by week. Today I am wearing some jeans from Uniqlo.I’ve discovered Uniqlo jeans and bought about five pairs cos they fit really well. The boots are by Aldo .My T-shirt is from Tooshop. The jacket is a really old jacket that I bought in the States a few years ago. But um, yeah I mean it just…it does tend to change a lot. Over to New Bond Street, London’s designer shopping Mecca（胜地） and the style stakes have gone up a little. Some of the most famous and expensive shops in the world can be found here. Shops where you have to ask the price of that handbag…or pair of shoes…then you know you can not really afford it. Natalie, a student from the city, says being laid back is what gives London style its edge. I don’t know. Everyone says like. French is like so fashionable and stuff but I think we are quite trendy, we are a bit more casual, but I think we have got a good style going on and everything, a bit laid back, but everyone still looks cool. Seylia works in a jewelry shop. No shabby chic（流行式样，时尚） here. Cashmere scarf from Louboutin, because it is cold. Black coat from Prada and a Valentino bag, which is probably as colorful as it gets. Katie is a model and loves how people dress in London because everyone has their own individual style. I love London it is so unique.And like everyone’s got their own fashion. I love it here, because you can wear whatever and just fit in, it is great. I love London for that. Laura is a student and says she doesn’t really put any thought into what she is wearing. Fashion, I wouldn’t really call it fashion. It is just kind of chucked together, basically, what I am comfortable in. Camden is known for its grungy（脏的，乱糟糟）, daring and sometimes outrageous（极不寻常的） styles. Here fashion is whatever you want it to be. Teenagers don’t hold back much when it comes to choosing clothes. They just want to make personal statement .We are just crazy! We don’t hold back so much. It’s not all about being elegant or something like that. It’s more making a statement, some people. And we don’t care.

伦敦一直自豪自己是一个有点不同的时候，时尚。在模特走秀、设计师展示新闻记者和来自全国各地的女买家最热门的新趋势世界。但远离设计师收藏的魅力，伦敦女孩究竟穿着什么？他们是如何创造的，个人风格的，他们是著名的？汉娜，谁的作品为时尚马夹锌，说伦敦的独特风格是所有关于混合和匹配。一天可能是朋克。接下来的一天你可以真的娘娘腔（少女般的）。这是一种选择你想要在你的衣柜里。也许是一个电子但昂贵的一块混合着更便宜的或二手的。我认为伦敦的女孩真的很好。波多贝罗路，在时尚的诺丁山地区，是一个家的伦敦最著名的市场。在这里，你的名字和人任何摊档讨价还价到死穿它（令人渴望的）设计师品牌在时髦的商店出售。但资本的女性观如何看待继承人的风格吗？折衷。我的风格当然是折衷的。它是从。它是从Tesco凯瑟琳基德斯顿范围。山姆今天在一家超市买了一个包，把她的衣服和一个包配了。安吉拉时装设计师。所以告诉我一点关于你的生活。你穿什么，你会说你的风格是什么？我的风格趋向于每周一周的变化。今天我穿着优衣库牛仔裤。我发现优衣库牛仔裤买了五对，因为他们真的很适合。靴子是阿尔多。我的T恤是从tooshop。这件夹克是我在美国买的一件很旧的夹克衫年前。但嗯，是的，我是说它只是……它往往会改变很多。在新邦德街，伦敦的设计师购物圣地（胜地）和风格股份涨了一点。一些最著名的和昂贵的商店在世界上可以找到这里。商店里你要问的价格，手袋……或双鞋，然后你知

道你不能真的买得起它。娜塔利，一名来自城市的学生，说被放回是什么给伦敦风格的边缘。我不知道。每个人都这样说。法语很流行，但我认为我们很时髦，我们有点随意，但我不喜欢想我们有了一个好的风格什么的，有点懒散，但是每个人都看起来很酷。seylia在珠宝店工作。没有破旧的时尚（流行式样，时尚）在这里。羊绒围巾从娄，因为使用它是冷的。黑色外套来自普拉达和瓦伦蒂诺袋，这可能是因为它的丰富多彩。凯蒂是一个模型和爱人们的衣着在伦敦，因为每个人都有自己的个人风格乐。我爱伦敦，这是非常独特的，就像每个人都有自己的时尚。我喜欢这里，因为你可以穿什么，只适合在，它是伟大的。我爱伦敦。劳拉是个学生说她并没有真正把任何想法，她穿着。时尚，我不会真的把它称为时尚。这只是种撮合到一起了，基本上，我很舒服。卡姆登是众所周知的其低劣（脏的，乱糟糟），大胆有时离谱（极不寻常的）风格。这里的时尚就是你想要的。在选择衣服的时候，青少年不太多。他们只是想让我让我们疯狂的个人陈述！我们不抱太大。它不是所有的优雅或类似的东西。这更让人声明，有些人。我们不关心。

Listening in

Presenter: How often do you change your clothes during the day?

Penny: Um I think it all depends on what I’m going to do. Um it might be as many as three times

if…

Presenter: Three times.

Penny: Yes, if I was … if I was going to go to gym, for instance, having dropped the children

off at school I’d be wearing an outfit for… just a casual outfit for doing the school run, then I’d go to gym and get changed and then if I was going out in the evening I’d change again.

Presenter: Yeah. How about you?

Penny: Yeah, I think it depends what happens during the day. Most of the time though I just put

on my clothes for work. I go to work I come home. Um maybe take something off, like er my shoes and change into a pair of slippers（拖鞋） or something, just a pair of sneakers. Um but there are times when if I go to gym, like Penny said, or if we are going out, my wife and I are going out for some occasion, I have to change into something a little nicer.

Presenter: And and so what would what would be the occasion when you changed into

something nicer? It would be different from a work…？

Eric: Yeah like going to someone’s house for dinner or going out for dinner, or going to some

kind of event.

Presenter: Yeah yeah. Would that be the same for you?

Penny: Definitely. Going to the theatre, um or meeting friends for a drink, yes. Presenter: So you’d always change for a social circumstance? Penny: Definitely makes it feel more of an occasion.

Presenter: OK, and what about the clothes you are wearing at the moment, how would you

know, what made you choose these clothes this morning?

Penny: Well I am going for an interview in an hour’s time so I’ve got to look quite smart and

presentable so that’s why I am looking smarter than I normally would do in the day.

Presenter: I think you have got a head start here because you look very presentable. Penny: Ah thank you.

Presenter: How about you?

Eric: I am able to go to work in fairly casual clothes so you know it’s fairly relaxed, nice and
