This all changes when he is reunited with his favourite college professor, Morrie Schwartz. On discovering that Morrie is being weakened by a severe illness, Mitch starts visiting him at his house on Tuesdays. The weekly conversations between Mitch and Morrie result in a series of lessons on the meaning of life and how best to live it. 点评 ●提升 n. 记者 在...前面 米奇 阿尔博姆 be reunited with... 使重聚 莫里 施瓦茨 on/upon doing sth. 一...就... am/is/are being done 现在进行时的被动 be weaken by... 被...弄虚弱 adj. 每周的 一周一次的 导致 产生 result from... 由...引起 一系列 ... 山东省薛城舜耕实验学校 Shandongshengxuechengshungengshiyanxuexiao 舜德弘远 耕学载道 This book is about dying, but it is not pessimistic.

As Morrie says, “Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.” As Morrie anticipates his own death, he observes everything as though through new eyes – the things around him seem more beautiful than ever before and hold new meanings. From his window, he watches each season change, knowing it could be his last. This encourages us to appreciate what we have, and to make the most of each day. 点评 ●提升 一旦... 引导时间状从 v. 预料 预期 as if 好像 似乎 than ever before 比以往任何时候都... encourage sb. to do sth. 鼓励某人做某事 make the use of... 充分利用 make full use of... ? appreciate v. 欣赏 重视 感激 理解 山东省薛城舜耕实验学校 Shandongshengxuechengshungengshiyanxuexiao 舜德弘远 耕学载道 训练 ●巩固 乐意帮忙 当心 提防 在...前面 使重聚 一...就... 被...弄虚弱 导致 产生 充满 填满 远非... 几乎相反... 好像 似乎 比以往任何时候都... 充分利用... ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ KEY PHRASES ready to help look out for ahead of... be reunited with... on/upon doing sth. be weakened by... result in... be filled with... far from... as if/though than ever before make the use of... 山东省薛城舜耕实验学校 Shandongshengxuechengshungengshiyanxuexiao 舜德弘远 耕学载道 Tuesdays with Morrie is a book which contains weekly conversations between Mitch and his favourite college professor, Morrie.

After finishing it, I feel I have been given a deeper insight into the world and can see things from a different point of view. On the 11th Tuesday, Morrie explains that “… the big things – how we think, what we value – those you must choose yourself. You can’t let anyone – or any society – determine those for you”. While we are living, we tend to get distracted by unimportant things, such as gathering material possessions. 点评 ●提升 have/has been done 现在完成时的被动 n. 洞悉 了解 见解 从不同的角度 give sb. a deeper insight into... 使某人对...有更深层次的认识 adj. 活着的 n. 生计 收入 tend to do sth. 往往会做某事 get distracted by... 被...分心 n. 财产 财务 山东省薛城舜耕实验学校 Shandongshengxuechengshungengshiyanxuexiao 舜德弘远 耕学载道 I think it’s important for young people to know that making a lot of money won’t always make them happy, or that looking different doesn’t make a person abnormal! It’s up to us to find out what is important in our lives and establish our own values. Morrie says that most people “seem half-asleep”, even when they’re doing things they think are important. Reading this book made me feel as if I’d been woken up from a long sleep and finally opened my eyes to the world! 点评 ●提升 形式主语 adj. 不正常的 反常的 normal it’s up to sb. to do... 靠某人做... 由某人决定做... 树立我们自己的价值观 as though wake up sb. from 将某人从...唤醒 open one’s eyes to... 看清... 睁开眼睛看... 山东省薛城舜耕实验学校 Shandongshengxuechengshungengshiyanxuexiao 舜德弘远 耕学载道 Despite its widespread recognition, my first impression was that Tuesdays with Morrie is just made up of a collection of over-emotional thoughts and messages, many of which are repeated. But thinking back, it did teach me a lesson or two. The book made me stop and think about how much I am influenced by popular culture and the importance of creating my own values based on love and open communication. Although it isn’t my favourite book, I’d still recommend that people read it – after all, it is something that’s a bit different! Marty 点评 ●提升 adj. 广泛流传的 n. 承认 认可 be made up of = be composed of = be comprised of = consist of adj. 过于感性的 prep.+关系代词 do/did/does 强调谓语 n. 经验 教训 be influenced by... 受...的影响 influential adj. 以...为基础 基于... 后置定语 adj. 开放式的 开阔的 毕竟 山东省薛城舜耕实验学校 Shandongshengxuechengshungengshiyanxuexiao 舜德弘远 耕学载道 Warning! A box of tissues will be needed to get through this book! Morrie’s reflections on love and friendship made me think about my life and all the good friends that I’ve lost touch with along the way. It made me realise just how much I miss them.

Like Mitch, Morrie makes you aware that you want to die feeling that you have lived life to the full, knowing that you are loved and have loved others as much as you could. As Morrie’s favourite poet Auden said, “Love each other or perish.” 点评 ●提升 和...保持联系 时间状从 经历 feeling...和knowing... 做伴随状语 时间状从 奥登 尽可能地 v. 死亡 丧生 山东省薛城舜耕实验学校 Shandongshengxuechengshungengshiyanxuexiao 舜德弘远 耕学载道 Based on the passage, determine whether the following statements are true or not. 【True (T) or False(F)】 Mitch Albom is successful as a sports journalist. Mitch Albom asks Morrie Schwartz to visit him on Tuesdays. Arthur thinks Tuesdays with Morrie is a book about life. According to Marty, he likes the book best. The book made Vivian realise how important friendship is.
