40磅重的背包,7天没能洗澡,还有每天6公里的徒步,听起来并不像是在度假,但是这样奇怪的组合竟然是我生活中最美妙的经历之一。

就读哈佛大学前,我进行了一次冒险并去探索了一个全新的世界。说实话,当我在把衣服、食物和重重的缆绳塞进背包时,我心里是害怕的。我从来没有过背包旅行的经历,也不认识团队里的任何人。我到底给自己挖了个什么样的坑呢?夜里我躺在床上,不停地问着自己这个问题,等待着黎明的到来。“A40-poundbackpack,7dayswithoutashower,and6milesofhikingeveryday”做主语,but表示转折,连接两个并列句。NotesTextAAJourneytoRemember★peak/piːk/n.①thepointedtopofamountain;amountainwithapointedtop山峰;峰峦e.g.amountainpeak山峰②thepointwhensb./sth.isbest,mostsuccessful,strongest,etc.顶峰;高峰e.g.Trafficreachesitspeakbetween8and9inthemorning.上午8、9点钟之间是交通高峰期。v.toreachthehighestpointorvalue达到高峰;达到最高值e.g.Unemploymentpeakedat17%.失业率达到17%的最高点。3

说真的,旅行的第一天非常艰难。到达第一个顶峰时,我几乎喘不上气来。我们的午餐是花生酱煎饼,万万没想到它如此美味!在几次打破冷场的局面,在险道上相互鼓励和深夜促膝长谈后,我很快交到了新朋友,这是我没有想到的。Notes“whoknew”的意思是“谁知道”,that引导的是宾语从句,it是从句的主语,指代前面的“apeanutbutterburrito”。TextAAJourneytoRemember★refreshing/rɪˈfreʃɪŋ/adj.使人精力充沛的;使人凉爽的e.g.arefreshingdrink/shower提神的饮料/淋浴refreshinglydifferent焕然一新4

Wearrivedatthecampsite10laterintheafternoon,andourleaderstaughtushowtotieropestothetreesandmakenicelittletentsoutoftarps11.Withoutwarning,theskydarkenedandthetemperaturedropped.Itfeltsogoodandrefreshing12towalkaround.Wesatinacirclewithourheadlightsshining13sowecouldseewhatwewereeating.Fromabove,wemusthavelookedlike13starstwinkling14brilliantly15inthesilent,darkmountain.

★brilliantly/'brɪlɪəntlɪ/adv.灿烂地,出色地e.g.It’sabrilliantlysunnymorning.这天上午阳光灿烂。

傍晚时分,我们抵达了宿营地,领队教我们如何将绳索系在树上,并用防水布做漂亮的小帐篷。毫无征兆地,天渐渐黑了,气温也越来越低。四处走了走后,让我感觉神清气爽。我们戴着头灯围坐在一起,以便能看清楚我们吃的是什么。从高处看,我们就像在漆黑寂静的山谷中闪烁着的13颗耀眼的小星星。Notes“withourheadlightsshining”是介词短语做状语。so引导的是结果状语从句,“whatwewereeating”是what引导的名词性从句,做see的宾语,what在从句中做eat的宾语。TextAAJourneytoRemember★outofnowhere突然冒出来;莫名其妙地出现e.g.Sherosetofameoutofnowhere.

她莫名其妙地就出名了。5

★scramble/ˈskræmbl/v.(迅速而吃力地)爬,攀登e.g.Shemanagedtoscrambleoverthewall.

★growonsb.逐渐为某人所喜爱e.g.Slowlyandstrangely,theplacebegantogrowonme.很奇怪,慢慢地这个地方越来越让我喜欢。

次日早晨,空气清新。当我享受着眼下的时光时,我们的三个领队突然跳上帐篷大喊道“该起床啦!!!”我们齐声抱怨,尽管有一万个不乐意,也爬到了外面。早餐后,我们迅速打包行李,向着我们的下一个目的地出发。这一次,我有个有趣的发现:如果一边徒步一边跟别人聊天,就不会感到那么累。似乎是聊天分散了我的注意力,让我不再时刻关注身体的劳累。我们聊着天,仿佛我们是老朋友一样,我的归属感与日俱增。Notesasif的意思是“仿佛,似乎,好像”,引导状语从句,从句的谓语动词如果用虚拟语气,表示与事实相反;如果用陈述语气,表示所说的情况是事实或实现的可能性较大。此句中用的是陈述语气。“Iwasfeeling”是定语从句,修饰限定“thephysicaltiredness”,省略了that。Distractfrom的意思是“从……中解脱”。TextAAJourneytoRemember★rough/rʌf/

adj.①

havingasurfacethatisnotevenorregular粗糙的;不平滑的;高低不平的e.g.

Theskinonherhandswashardandrough.她手上的皮肤粗糙而没有弹性。②notexact;notincludingalldetails不确切的;粗略的;大致的e.g.I’vegotaroughideaofwhereIwanttogo.我大致知道我想去哪里了。6

★chaotic/keɪˈɒtɪk/adj.混乱的;杂乱的;紊乱的e.g.Thetrafficinthecityischaoticintherushhour.在上下班高峰时间,城市的交通混乱不堪。

★ridiculous/rɪˈdɪkjələs/adj.愚蠢的;荒谬的;荒唐的e.g.Ilookridiculousinthishat.我戴这顶帽子看上去很可笑。

★urge/ɜːdʒ/n.astrongdesiretodosth.强烈的欲望;冲动~todosth.e.g.Ihadasuddenurgetohithim.我突然很想揍他一顿。v.

过去式:urged;过去分词:urged;现在分词:urging;第三人称单数:urges。①toadviseortryhardtopersuadesb.todosth.敦促;催促;力劝e.g.Sheurgedhimtostay.她力劝他留下。②

torecommendsth.strongly大力推荐;竭力主张e.g.Whatcanwedotourgetheselazyworkerstogreaterproduction?我们怎样才能鼓励这些懒惰的工人去努力增产呢?

行程对我来说一天比一天容易,我逐渐习惯了这艰难且混沌的生活方式。我们通常会徒步几个小时,然后坐下来欣赏美景,养精蓄锐。“打包出发”成了我最喜欢的字眼。想到最后一次听到这几个字,我心里五味陈杂。在这7天里,我们聊天、唱歌、大笑的场景的次数比我记忆中的还多。我喜欢我们每一次为活跃气氛所开的玩笑,这些感觉无论是在身体上还是心理上都日益强烈。远离手机,那种不停地想去查看信息的冲动消失了,我感到异常平静。最后,我知道了如何睁眼看世界,这仿佛是我第一次打开视野,也学会了欣赏所看到的和经历的一切。Notesasif此处的意思是“好像”,引导状语从句。在此句中后面的从句用的是虚拟语气,将当时的情况比喻成第一次睁眼时。whatever作限定代词,意思是“无论什么,不管什么”,在句子中引导宾语从句。TextAAJourneytoRemember★sunset/ˈsʌnset/n.日落;傍晚e.g.Everyeveningatsunsettheflagwaslowered.

每天傍晚日落时都要降旗。7

★dieout消失;绝种;绝灭;淘汰e.g.Howdidthedinosaursdieout?

恐龙是如何灭绝的?

★tearup①泪流不止,潸然泪下e.g.MyDadlookedatmeforthelongesttine,andhiseyesstartedtotearup.爸爸盯着我看了好长时间,潸然泪下。②撕毁,撕碎(文件等)e.g.Shetoreupallthelettershehadsenther.她把他寄给她的信都撕了。

★overwhelm/ˌəʊvəˈwelm/v.(感情或感觉)充溢,难以禁受e.g.Shewasoverwhelmedbyfeelingsofguilt.她感到愧疚难当。

旅行的最后一天,我们比平常晚了一点离开宿营地,直到傍晚,我们还没能到达新的营地。我开始变得焦虑,因为我的头灯在逐渐变暗。我越是焦虑,绊倒的次数就越多。当事态无法控制时,我通常会失去理智。但在那个时候,大家都出乎意料的放松。走在我前面的女孩儿——梅利莎,不停地回头用她自己的头灯为我照明。她不断安慰我“会好的,我们马上就到了”。她真的打动了我,我的眼泪不止一次夺眶而出。当我几乎要放弃的时候,我们终于走进一片旷野,成千上万的星星为我们照亮了前方的路。我让眼泪顺着脸颊流下,我成功了。在那一刻我是如此的兴奋,我唯一想做的就是拥抱他们每一个人,告诉他们,他们对我来说如此重要。TextAAJourneytoRemember★oneanother互相e.g.Wealltryandhelponeanother.我们都尽力互相帮助。8

Wesatunderthestarsandsharedapieceofcakeafterdinner,takingturnssayingwhatweadmiredinoneanother.IwassurprisedtohearsomanyofmynewfriendsthoughtIwasbrave.TheysaidthatIhavetakenriskstoleavehome,flyacrosstheocean,headstraightforthemountains,andhavethecouragetodosomethinghardanddifficultIhadneverdonebefore.

坐在星空下,我们开始分享美味的餐后蛋糕,轮流倾诉彼此的钦佩之情。当我听到很多新朋友说我勇敢时,我非常意外。他们说我有勇气漂洋过海离开家走进山里,有勇气去挑战从没做过的艰难的事。TextAAJourneytoRemember9
