My meaning simply is, that whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do well; that whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself to completely; that in great aims and in small, I have always been thoroughly in earnest. — David Copperfield, by Charles Dickens You can never have too much sky. You can fall asleep and wake up drunk on sky, and sky can keep you safe when you are sad. Here there is too much sadness and not enough sky. Butterflies too are few and so are flowers and most things that are beautiful. Still, we take what we can get and make the best of it. —The House on Mango Street, by Sandra Cisneros 我的意思是，无论我在生活中想做什么，我都全心全意地努力做好;无论我致力于什么，我都全身心投入;无论大小目标，我总是彻底地认真。 你永远不能拥有太多的天空。你可以在天空下入睡，在天空下醉醒，在你忧伤的时候，天空可以给你安全感。这里悲伤太多，天空不够。蝴蝶也很少，花也很少，大多数美丽的东西也很少。尽管如此，我们还是会运用我们所能得到的，并充分利用它。 Welcome to the unit 9 《大卫·科波菲尔》（David Copperfield）是 19 世纪英国现实主义文学代表作家查尔斯·狄更斯（Charles Dickens, 1812–1870）创作的长篇小说。作品以第一人称视角， 通过主人公大卫·科波菲尔从童年屡遭不幸到自学成才，直至成为著名作家的经历， 描绘了 19 世纪维多利亚时代英国社会的广阔图景，展示了当时各个阶层的人物形象，反映了作者的生活哲学和道德理想。 Welcome to the unit 10 《芒果街上的小屋》（The House on Mango Street）是墨西哥裔美国作家桑德拉·希斯内罗丝（Sandra Cisneros，1954–）的成名作。 小说通过一个小女孩童真的眼光观察周遭的世界，用 44 个相对独立的小故事描述了芒果街上的生活。 Welcome to the unit 11 Now discuss the following questions in pairs. 1 Which of the excerpts makes you feel like reading the whole book?

Some truth and beauty remain unnoticed until a sensitive human soul brings them to our attention, just as the shell reflects the unnoticed sounds.
