(#12) Week of June 11- 英语阅读训练组

阅读小组训练第十二周开始了，有关此次训练活动的初衷，请猛戳这里
前几周发起了阅读训练小组素材推荐的活动，我把版里已有的/训练小组同学正在阅读的，都总结到了素材推荐的一楼，欢迎大家继续推荐，请猛戳这里

参与的形式还是不变，希望已经参与的同学继续坚持并保持/提升阅读速度，观望的同学速速加入欢迎大家跟贴交流阅读感受。



===========================我是copy的分割线=============================================

参与形式：copy自己觉得好的句子，注明page number贴出来。同时最重要的，作为练习，必须把这个句法应用在自己生活的场景里面，也写出来。几乎天天都有汇报进度的话，会比较容易坚持。参见隔壁战拖组，凡是一个人单打独斗的，至少是帖子都没有follow下去，计划是否完成旁人就不知道了。跟组的看起来是坚持的要好些。

跟战拖组一样，每人一周只许占1楼，所有讨论集中在一个贴（这里）。一周内每日更新在自己的楼里，每完成一周一个学分。自己选的书或者指定书都可以，但是4周内必须完成（否则也太慢了）。全部学时完成的，还有1学分奖励。


3/26 周一开始吧，争取4周完成一本。任选1本开始就可以。不过大家都读同一本，争取match进度也不错，免得没有监督难以维持。这点暂时随意吧。

============================================================================



暂时就是这些规矩。有其他书推荐的话，下一个学习组里面用。其他建议welcome

William Faulkner's "A Rose for Emily"
（1）WHEN Miss Emily Grierson died, our whole town went to her funeral:（2）the men through a sort of respectful affection for a fallen monument, the women mostly out of curiosity to see the inside of her house, which no one save an old man-servant--a combined gardener and cook--had seen in at least ten years.

（3）It was a big, squarish frame house that had once been white, decorated with cupolas and spires and scrolled balconies in the heavily lightsome style of the seventies, set on what had once been our most select street. （4）But garages and cotton gins had encroached and obliterated even the august names of that neighborhood; only Miss Emily's house was left, lifting its stubborn and coquettish decay above the cotton wagons and the gasoline pumps-an eyesore among eyesores.

（5）And now Miss Emily had gone to join the representatives of those august names where they lay in the cedar-bemused cemetery among the ranked and anonymous graves of Union and Confederate soldiers who fell at the battle of Jefferson.
