第十一篇（建筑）:
4 Q- \) z9 h+ G8 Z4 ^In today’s class we’ll be examining some nineteenth-century pattern books that were used for building houses. I think it’s fair to say that these pattern books were the most important influence on design of the North American houses during the nineteenth century.
% i" T& @+ S# m* N. C  z( f
* X6 W! y4 W/ _) N9 a6 wThis was because most people who wanted to build a house couldn’t afford to hire architect. Instead, they bought a pattern book, picked out a plan and took it to the builder. The difference in cost was substantial. In 1870, for example, hiring an architect would’ve cost hundred dollars, at the same time, a pattern book written by an architect cost only five dollars./ k3 A$ u! ^- N" L4 N5 D

! O7 c9 T, L/ p1 g& BAt that price, it’s easy to see why pattern books were so popular. Some are back in print again today, and of course they cost a lot more than they did one hundred years ago. But they’re an invaluable resource for historians, and also for people who restore old houses. I have a modern reprint here that I’ll be passing around the room in a moment so that you can have a look. . m! v' V; m2 t/ ~' A6 m

第十二篇（人物women）:
8 z  Z8 ~6 N( E8 \7 _' ^5 iLast week we talked about Anne Bradstreet and the role of women in the Puritan colonies. Today, I want to talk about some other women who’ve contributed to the American history—some famous and some not-so-famous. The first woman I’d like to talk about is Molly Pitcher. Those of you who are familiar with the name may know her as a heroine of the American Revolution. But, in fact, there never was a woman named Molly Pitcher. Her real name was actually Mary Ludwig Hays. She got the nickname Molly Pitcher for her acts of bravery duringRevolutionary War.6 u3 P, a% H3 T; N. w7 X

9 x. [9 b4 {2 {As the story goes, when Mary’s or Molly’s husband John Hays, enlistedin the artillery, Mary followed like many other wives did. She helped out doing washing and cooking for the soldiers. She was known to be a pretty unusual woman—she smoked a pipe and chewed tobacco.4 a% C5 o  ?( ]$ S) x( D; h5 ^
- }* l( _# D2 Y* }5 ~; h3 h2 L0 K
Anyway, in the summer of 1778, at the Battle of Monmouth, it was a blistering hot day—maybe over a hundred degrees—and fifty soldiers died of thirst during the battle. Molly wasn’t content to stay back at the camp. Instead, she ran through gunshots and cannon fire, carrying water in pitchers from a small stream out the thirsty American soldiers. The relief that she brought with her pitchers of water gave her the legendary nickname: Molly Pitcher. The story also says that she continued to load and fire her husband’s cannon after he was wounded. They say that she was so well liked by the other soldiers that they call her Sergeant Molly. In fact, legend has it that George Washington himself gave her the special military title.. O/ a+ l) U/ N7 U8 H

第十三篇（yellow stone park）:
: s2 O4 u, u( P( Q3 @0 G/ `* ^Welcome to Yellowstone National Park. Before we begin our nature walk today, I’d like to give you s short history of our National Park Service. The National Park Service began in the late 1800’s. A small group of explorers have just completed a month-long exploration of the region that is now Yellowstone. They gathered around a campfire, and after hours of discussion, they decided that they should not claim this land for themselves. They felt it should be accessible to everyone.* z, s" @# x( }/ ]  z

7 T4 P4 u4 P1 x$ Z  f3 v: \So they began a campaign to preserve this land for everyone’s enjoyment. Two years later, in the late nineteenth century, an act of congress signed by President Ulysses S. Grant proclaimed the Yellowstone region a public park. It was the first national park in the world. After Yellowstone became a public park, many other areas of great scenic importance were set aside and in 1916 the National Park Service was established to manage these parks.

I’m sure almost every one of you looked at your watch or at a clock before you came to class today. Watches or clocks (seem as) much a part of our life (as breathing of eating). And yet, did you know that watches and clock s were <scarce> in the United States until 1850’s?
2 P# A  k3 J  f1 n
! d- F: ^& y# e1 O$ l# SIn the late 1700’s, people didn’t know exact time unless they were near a clock. Those delightful clocks in the squares of European towns were built for public—after all, most citizens simply couldn’t afford a personal <timepiece>.(计时器) (Well into) the 1800’s—in Europe and the United States—the main purpose of the watch, which, by the way, was (often in a gold chain), was to show others how <wealthy> you were.

The word “(wristwatch)” (手表)didn’t even enter the English language until nearly 1900. By then, (the rapid pace of) <industrialization> in the United States (meant) that measuring time had become (essential). How could the factory worker get to work on time unless he or she knew exactly what time it was? Since (efficiency) was now measured by how fast a job was done, everyone was interested in time. And since industrialization made possible the (manufacture) of large (quantities) of goods, watches become fairly inexpensive. Farther more, electric lights (kept) factories going around the clock. Being on time had entered the language—and life—of every citizen.7 Z! k" B, p; ^8 g! A# u

第十五篇（舞蹈）:1 g+ \% O& m; f
So, why did what is now called “modern dance” begin in the United States? To begin to answer this question, I’ll (need backtrack) a little bit and talk about classical ballet.. |3 n) M- ]1 E  i1 e7 x

0 v8 o$ @% N: A( y9 O, z( u# L+ zBy the late 1800’s, ballet had lost a lot of its popularity. Most of the ballet dancers who <performed> in the United States were brought over from Europe. They performed using the (rigid techniques) that had been passed down (through) the centuries. Audiences and dancers in the United States were eager for their own “<contemporary>” dance form. And, so, around 1900, dancers created one.+ ^3 ^" E' b  r! Y# z, j( Q  \6 S
6 J5 w7 a- F) C; V) a- ~$ d) e2 e
So how was this modern dance so different from classical ballet? (Well), most (notably), it wasn’t carefully (choreographed). Instead, the dance depended on the (improvisation) and free, personal expression of the dancers. Music and (scenery) were of little importance to the modern dancer and lightness of movement wasn’t important <either>. In fact, modern dancers made no attempt at all to conceal the effort involved in a dance step. # Q$ w. L0 R3 y' _) M! T

  A4 c6 R- V  Y1 h, J& CBut even if improvisation (appealed to) audiences, many dance (critics) were less (than enthusiastic) about the performers. They questioned the (artistic integrity) of dancers who were not <professionally> trained and the artistic value of works that had no formal structure. Loie Fuller, after performing Fire Dance, was <described> as doing little more than turning “round and round like an (eggbeater).” Yet, the free, personal expression of <pioneer> dancers is the <basis> of the “controlled freedom” of modern dance today.
