标题：布什：我眼中的美国[名人名言]
President Bush delivers his preference for US-style values at Tsinghua University, but emphasizes Washington's hope for better relations with Beijing.President Bush, perhaps taking a leaf from<注1> his wife's gift for teaching, delivered a primer<注2> on the America he knows to Chinese university students, telling them that “in a free society, diversity is not disorder.Debate is not strife, and dissent is not revolution.”
Speaking before an audience of 240 Tsinghua University students in the school's main auditorium,<注3> the president said, “Life in America shows that liberty, paired with<注4> law, is not to be feared....A free society trusts its citizens to seek greatness in themselves and their country.”
At the end of his remarks, the president fielded<注5> questions for 20 minutes with the young audience, clearly enjoying the exchange.When one young woman asked why he wouldn't like his daughters, Jenna and Barbara, to come to China and attend this historic university, Bush told them: “I'm afraid they don't listen to me anymore, if you know what I mean.” He said the Chinese youngsters certainly have an amazing country and he thought his daughters should visit it.The president told the students he was speaking on the 30th anniversary of President Richard Nixon's trip to China that changed the two countries' relationship.Nixon's visit was a trip designed to “end decades of estrangement and confront centuries of suspicion.”<注6> During the years since, “America and China have exchanged many handshakes of friendship and commerce.”“In fact, Americans feel a special responsibility for the poor and the weak.Our government spends billions of dollars to provide health care and food and housing for those who cannot help themselves...Many of our citizens contribute their own money and time to help those in need.”
Bush said his “country certainly has its share of problems and faults.Like most nations, we're on a long journey toward achieving our own ideals of equality and justice.Yet there is a reason our nation shines as a beacon<注7> of hope and opportunity, a reason many throughout the world dream of coming to America.”We are a free nation, where men and women have the opportunity to achieve their dreams.No matter your background or circumstance of birth, in America you can get a good education, start a business, raise a family, worship freely and help elect the leaders of your community and country.You can support the policies of our government, or you are free to openly disagree with them.Those who fear freedom sometimes argue it could lead to chaos, but it does not, because freedom means more than every man for himself.“

[关键词]书面表达；观察；经典美文
英语中的经典美文能让学生易学，乐学，且能规范言语，好比在一个模板可自由涂出美丽的图画。有了这块“砖头”，就会有源源不断的“美玉”。许多人曾有过这样的体会：有范文借鉴,从模仿入手,心领神会,久而久之,就能信手拈来。叶圣陶先生曾说，生活如泉水，文章犹如溪水，泉源丰盛而不枯竭，溪水自然会流个不歇。
一、 把握话题，佳作引路
任何一种能力都是从小培养的，英语书面表达也不例外，它是掌握英语综合运用能力的重要内容之一。不是缺少美，而是缺少发现。教师应该将学生带进经典，走进美文，让学生亲自去体验、观察、认识，从而获取写作灵感和素材。如写四季的文章，完全可以挑出每个季节描写的经典美文让学生先观察后动笔。
学生无“路”时,教师要适时地用范文去“引路”。着力培养学生的观察力。只有多观察，学生写作时才能有话可说，有感可发。指导学生多观察，抓住经典美文特点,是英语书面表达形成的重点和难点。要注意引导学生通过品味,理解“例文”的“例”,把品读和品评有机地结合起来,加深对语言文字的理解,并领悟写景、状物的一般规律。 在用范文时,教师首先必须明确自己要从例文中让学生掌握怎样的方法,然后精心准备“范文”,并充分利用范文,引导学生深入剖析,发掘范文背后潜藏着的写作“秘诀”,让学生在自主探究中悟出一般规律和方法。这样能为学生作文实践打下坚实的基础
不仅要用眼睛看，用耳朵听，必要时还要用鼻子闻，用舌头尝，或者用手触摸，用脚踩，这样才能对观察有深刻的认识。一幅幅美丽的风景才会在学生的笔尖呈现，一个个精彩的片段才会在学生笔下流淌。
二、 激发奇思，开启心路
感知积累典范多换角度去仿写，培养兴趣。兴趣是最好的老师。这些都说作文也需要培养兴趣，兴趣是学生开启作文大门的钥匙。培养学生写作的兴趣，是学生写好作文的前提。教师在作文教学时，要用多种方式培养写作的兴趣。
英语教师要多搜集一些适合学生欣赏并且学生喜欢欣赏的文章。品读过程中要读出“味”来，并适当地进行讲解说明，特别是一些优美的句子和段落要反复读，让学生有身临其境之感，达到陶冶情操的效果。教师还可以现场临摹佳文给学生品读。“言传不如身教。”中学生天生具备的向师性，他们会被逐渐“同化”，这种效应正是兴趣之源。
三、及时激励，适时表扬
英语教师要积极培养学生对写作的自信心。培养写作的信心主要是让学生体会到成功的喜悦，其中写激励性的批语、发表学生习作等做法是学生获得成就感的最好方法。好的批语不仅能提高学生的语言表达能力，而且能成为连接师生情感的桥梁和纽带，对提高学生的写作能力起催化作用。批改上，英语教师的批语要杜绝传统的判断式语句，代之以商榷的问句，把教师和学生摆在平等对话的位置上，从而创设一种民主的气氛。要多一些鼓励性的语言，由衷地为学生文中的优点喝彩，哪怕只是一个生动的词语、一个形象的句子，或一个用得恰到好处的标点符号。这样才会使师生在作文交流中沟通，从而提高学生的写作信心。
应激励学生展示自己，让学生的习作或者在班级学习园地上展览，或者推荐到报刊上发表，让学生在不断自我展示中，获得写作的动力，充满写好作文的信心。
四、坚持模仿，真情融汇
大多数人不理解写作是一门艺术，就像做其他任何事一样，总得经过一番学艺。要使学生真正提高写作水平，教师必须鼓励学生勤练笔。因此，只有在整个教学过程中不失时机地让学生勤练笔，才能真正达到写好作文的目的。在学生作文稿拟好以后，可安排时间让学生读自己的文章，边读边感受，边查边改。一是感受情感强弱、停顿长短，查标点符号使用是否正确；二是感受语句是否含混别扭，是否明白通顺；三是感受语言表达是否与内容贴切，查用词是否恰当；四是感受内容是否杂乱，教师要适时发现，适当地给予欣赏和鼓励。
总之，英语教师要帮学生积累经典美文，增加他们阅读量，拓宽他们的知识面。同时，努力培养学生书面表达的创作兴趣，提高学生写作的信心。鼓励学生勤练笔，努力提高学生的写作能力，使学生 “有话要说”“我要写”，快乐体验更新颖。加强经典美文的积累，更进一步、扎实有效地进行书面表达的实践，并对所积累的经典英语美文进行总结，为以后的写作提供“活水源头”。

【爱情,在婚姻的殿堂中成长】
Social scientists have observed that marriages typically move through a series of at least four stages. Each stage presents unique learning opportunities and blessings, along with challenges and obstacles.
社会学家研究发现，一般来说，婚姻至少要经历一系列的至少四个阶段。每个阶段都给予我们独特的学习和成长的机会，还有祝福。当然，其中不乏挑战和险阻。
Stage One C Romance, Passion and Promise
第一阶段――浪漫，激情，承诺
In the beginning of a relationship partners often communicate effortlessly and at length. They seem to intuit each other’s needs and wishes and go out of their way to please and surprise each other. Couples begin to develop a strong sense of “we.”
在一段婚姻关系初期，夫妻们经常可以毫不费力地进行最大限度的沟通。他们可以直接感知对方的愿望和需求，也会不顾自己的感受尽力取悦对方，让对方惊喜。他们之间逐渐建立起“我们”的强烈意识，纵观所有阶段，此阶段夫妻的个性差异是最小的，几乎可以忽略。
Individual differences are minimized, if noticed at all; partners are very accepting. Joy, excitement, happiness and hope abound.
夫妻在这个阶段很容易接受对方的一切。他们彼此充满着快乐、兴奋、幸福和希望。
Partners present and elicit their best selves. Life seems promising. It is a time of sharing dreams and romance. This is a time to be remembered and cherished.
夫妻们都会选择展现他们最好的那一面给对方。生活似乎充满希望和前景。这是彼此分享梦想和浪漫的阶段。这是值得铭记和珍惜的阶段。
Stage Two C Settling down and Realization
第二阶段――冷静和理解
The high energy and intensity of Stage One inevitably give way to the ordinary and routine.
第一阶段的热情和激情不可避免地被随之而来的生活琐事所磨灭。
Ideally, in Stage Two couples learn to deepen their communication skills. They work to understand and express their wants, needs, and feelings.
在理想的情况下，在第二阶段，夫妻倾向于加强他们的沟通技巧。他们要学习慢慢地理解和表达他们真正的需求、感觉和希望。
They learn to be honest and vulnerable and to listen actively to each other.
他们要学习坦诚，要愿意展现自己脆弱的一面给对方，还要多倾听对方的意见。
They become aware of differences not noticed previously and develop strategies for dealing with them. Couples learn about give and take, negotiation and accommodation.
他们会发现一些之前没有留意到的差异，并利用适当的策略好好处理因差异造成的影响。双方在这个阶段学习如何付出和接受、商量和妥协。
Stage Three C Rebellion and Power Struggles
第三阶段――反抗和权力抗争
Spouses cannot always live up to each other’s expectations. They will disappoint and unintentionally hurt each other.
夫妻关系中没有人总能满足对方的期盼。不经意间，他们会使对方失望，甚至伤害到对方。
They now become intensely aware of their differences and may use control strategies to bring back the desired balance.
在这阶段，他们强烈地意识到两人之间的差异，并希望能控制局势，让生活回到以前理想的平衡状态。
Power struggles are common. Blame, judgment, criticism and defensiveness are likely outcomes.
权力抗争是很常见的;指责，批评，挑剔，防御，是最有可能的结果。
Fear and anxiety enter the relationship. Couples’ thinking can narrow into right/wrong, good/bad polarities.
婚姻关系混进了恐惧和担忧，夫妻的思想很可能会缩窄到对/错，好/坏两个极端。
Ideally, couples learn about forgiveness and accommodation in this stage. They learn to deal constructively with anger and hurt. A supportive community becomes especially important.
理想的情况下，在此阶段，夫妻会在体谅和适应中成长。支撑性的社群变得尤为重要(即亲戚好友要帮助夫妻维持婚姻，给予支撑性的建议，让争吵中的夫妻变得和谐)。
Stage Four C Discovery, Reconciliation, and Beginning Again
第四阶段――发现，调解，重新开始
Couples can push through the previous stage through deepened communication, honesty and trust.
夫妻可以跳过第三阶段这道坎，但需要加深彼此的沟通，坦诚和信任。
Ideally, they discover and create a new sense of connection. They learn more about each other’s strengths and vulnerabilities.
在理想的情况下，他们会探寻并创造出一种新的维系婚姻的方式。
They learn to identify and talk about their fears instead of acting them out. They refuse to judge or blame their partner; they translate their complaints into requests for change.
他们学会要了解更多对方的长处和弱点。他们学会试图说出他们心中的恐惧，而不是直接表现在行动上以致伤害对方。他们不再批评或指责对方，而将对方的抱怨视为让自己变得更好的要求。
Partners see each other in a new light, as gifted and flawed, just as they themselves are gifted and flawed. Empathy and compassion increase. They learn to appreciate and respect each other in new ways; they learn not to take each other for granted.
夫妻用一种新的眼光看待对方，就如同自己本身有优点也有缺点，对方也亦然。因此，他们对对方的同情感和怜悯感增加了。他们学会以一种新的方法去赞美和尊重对方，不再认为对自己好是对方的义务。
They find a new balance of separateness and togetherness, independence and intimacy. A new hope and energy return to the relationship.
他们发现了一种在分开和共处之间，独立和亲密之间的平衡。婚姻关系重新注入新的希望和力量。
Additional Challenges and Stages
其他挑战和阶段
Many couples will encounter additional life cycle stages. Just like marriage, creating a family will face many challenges.
很多夫妻会遇到其他阶段。如同婚姻，建立一个家庭会面对很多挑战。
It is another opportunity to learn about cooperation and becoming a team, about dealing with differences and conflicts, and about taking time to pause and choose.
这给予夫妻另一个成长的机会，学习如何成为一个团队，分工合作;处理生活上的矛盾和争执;留出时间去思考未来的路，并进行抉择。
Parenting is a spiritual journey that involves not only the growth of the children but the growth of the parents. Like marriage, it will have many opportunities to surrender and die to self, to let go and to grieve.
成为父母是一个心灵上新的旅程，期间不断发育成长的不仅有孩子，而且父母也会壮大他们的力量，思想更加成熟。如同婚姻，成为父母也要很大牺牲，要懂取舍和放弃。
Other life cycle challenges include illness, unemployment and other financial crises, retirement, and the death of one’s partner. Many couples must take care of the older generation while letting go of the younger one.
夫妻会遇到的其他挑战还包括疾病，失业或其他经济危机，退休和另一半的离世。有时候，夫妻还要面对白头人送黑头人的情况。
Growth throughout the marital journey requires openness and flexibility. Faith requires trust and surrender. Even if we cannot see the entire road and where it will end, we need to have clarity to take the next few steps.
One day a dog with a piece of meat in his mouth was crossing a plank over a stream. As he walked along,helookedintowater,andhesawhis reflection. He thought this was another dog carrying
a piece of meat. And he felt he would like to have two pieces. So he snapped at the reflection in the water, and of course, as he opened his mouth, the piece of meat disappeared quickly.

Traffic safety
Traffic is one of the most important problems of every modern city.With the invention of the motor car and all sorts of motor vehicles, nearly every day we can read in the newspapers about the news of traffic accidents.We can not help sympathizing with the victims.Of course, if we can do away with those modern vehicles, no such things can happen.But it is against the progress of the civilization.We cannot return to the backward past ages.But if we cannot entirely prevent traffic accidents from happening, at least we can lessen its chances of occurrence.We can avoid it by means of educating the pedestrians and car drivers on the ways of traffic safety.28
We need A Science Society
Youths today should all take a keen interest in science, for we are in a rapidly progressing scientific age.Indeed, no one can now be regarded “up-to-date” without a general scientific knowledge we get from school textbooks, we should visit the libraries more often and read the current scientific news from the newspaper.But the enthusiastic youths have often found out that there are not enough suitable books to read in the public libraries, since many of them are too advanced and too specialized.To overcome this difficulty, I suggest that the Education Department should establish an inter-school science society.The main objects of the society are to increase the scientific knowledge of youths and to foster friendship between members.29
We Are Young But Once
Many young girls like to copy grown-ups.They wear high-heels, paint their faces, dress in tight clothes and all that burden.They.Willingly let tight clothes suffocate their breathing, high-heels hinder their walking, and make-ups mar their natural beauty.They think they equal adults by using these stuff, and look down upon their counterparts as childish, who incidentally do not care much to over-act their age.In fact, one can not be considered as a grown-up just by appearance.It acquires more, such as maturity of thought, which can only be seasoned by time..Young is indeed a very precious gift, and remember, everyone is young only once.While we still have youth with us, why should we restrict ourselves from enjoying it to our heart’s content by attempting to be much older than we really are?
Chances once lost may never come again, and youth definitely will not.Once it is over, real life requests our experience, and responsibilities await us with graveness.Our life will never be as free and blissful as we are today.Our present tasks in life are light.Our hearts are still full of youthful spirits and enthusiasm.So while we are still in the flower of life, why do we not gather the “rose-buds ”of youth before they wither away?
Women of Today
Women are playing an increasingly important part in society today.They are not restricted to their roles as wives and mothers anymore, they now work and have become the equal partners of men.In many countries, more and more women are acting as workers, teachers, scientists and even leaders.We can say that almost all jobs which men can do are done perfectly by women.Women are no longer looked down upon by society.With the changes in their social role, women’s position in the family has been improved as well.Husband and wife are now equal in the family.They cope with problems of daily life together, and share happiness with each other.Also, you can hardly find out that in today’s families, women are being busy with dinners, whereas men are comfortably sitting in armchairs, reading newspapers.31
Use of the Time
A man’s life occupies, at best, but a limited space of time;every bit of time wasted in idleness means a reduction of success and prosperity to the man himself and to the world at large.The magnitude of a man’s success in life depends largely upon how he makes use of his time.Those who achieve greatness in different channels of success are, as a whole, the most hard working people.Our famous scholar Yao and Shun wasted not a single minute, while Da Yu, our great emperor, valued even the briefest space of time.They were our great men;their accomplishments stand out in our history in bold relief.If we wish to do something useful, the sure way to success is to turn every minute that we may have at our disposal.The old hours which we have after our daily work are the best time for reading.There is a great deal of wisdom locked up in books.Nowhere else can we find such a rich spring of knowledge for quenching(satisfy)our thirst.Of course, different people follow different occupations.They do not need the same sort of information.Here they must make their own choice to get the books
best suited to their particular needs.The time spent in such reading will add greatly to their stock of knowledge and prepare them for greater work in their respective fields of activity.When the reading habit is once formed, they will enjoy reading far more than they do anything else.32
Build up good hobbies
1、有效指导阅读,开启宝库钥匙
引领阅读方法,建立默读、诵读、散读、齐读相结合的机制,能有效的领悟经典著作深厚内涵。诵读朗读,把文章中的人、事、意境、作者的思想感情和趣味,语言技巧的运用和语音的多种变化,绘声绘色的表达出来,使字里行间潜在的含义溢于言表,把书面文字难以表达或者根本无法表达的隐情妙趣抒发出来,深切体会作者的神思匠心及文章的要义。如“词语组块背诵法”、熟记诗“头”背诵法、联想画面背诵法、抓诗眼背诵法等更使诵读如虎添翼。俗话说,好记性不如烂笔头。摘抄增加积淀,充实积累储备库,充分的感悟美文在语言、立意、构思、谋篇、布局、开头、过渡、结尾等值得借鉴的地方,为写作能力的提高做最佳铺垫。
2、经典美文驰骋古今,拓展想象空间
爱因斯坦说过:“想象力比知识更重要,因为知识是有限的,而想象力概括着世界上的一切并推动着进步,想象才是知识进化的源泉。”想象力是学生写作的翅膀,经典美文为我们培养学生丰富的想象力提供了优秀的范例。“北冥有鱼,其名为鲲,鲲之大,不知其几千里也。化而为鸟,其名而鹏,鹏之背,不知其几千里也;怒而飞,其翼若垂天之云。”想象奇特怪诞,洋溢着浪漫色彩。经典美文能引起学生情感共鸣,激发其想象力、创造力,通过对文本的感悟、体验,有效的表达,实现正迁移。如学习《清明》可以让学生发挥想象,补充“清明时节雨纷纷,路上行人欲断魂”的伤感情景,在“补白”中初悟景中寓情的写作手法。这样久而久之就拓展了学生的想象空间。
3、源头活水,挖掘写作素材
“问渠哪得清如许,为有源头活水来。”朱熹《观书有感》中的句子即为学生挖掘的最佳素材。写出《赤兔之死》 的蒋昕捷,凭借《赤兔之死》技压群芳,赢得一片喝彩,得益于经典美文。首先他对《三国演义》理解精辟,让他的《赤兔之死》线索清晰,主题突出;其次,对经典引用得当,“鸟之将死,其鸣也哀;人之将死,其言也善。”“玉可碎而不可损其白,竹可破而不可毁其节。”“老骥伏枥,志在千里。烈士暮年,壮心不已。”“物 犹如此 ,人何以堪 。”“鸟随鸾 凤飞腾远 , 人伴贤良 品质高。”这些经典名句,让他的文章大放异彩。蒋昕捷的一举成名,充分印证了经典美文在写作中起到举足轻重的作用。
4、模仿借鉴,拓展写作领域
“他山之石,可以攻玉。”有过写作经历的人常有这种深刻的体悟,生花的妙笔往往与阅读经历密切相关。从写作训练的角度考虑,借助美文仿写是提高写作能力的很重要的环节,经典美文为人们提供了丰富的精神养料:或敬畏自然,或尊重生命,或歌颂友谊,或赞美爱情......学生自主选定范文之后进行仿写,不必拘泥于范文的主旨和结构,通过尝试修辞等写作技巧在实际写作中的运用,学会用优美的语言阐述自己对社会对人生问题的思考,学会用感性的语言表达理性的思维,不必要求学生仿写的文字贴近范文,有了一点进步就应当被看作是收获。通过阅读经典美文,所积累的大量词汇、丰富多彩的语言表达形式对于我们的写作具有直接的模仿和借鉴作用,拓展了写作的领域和方法。
5、开展创造性写作,提升写作品质
读书的最高境界,不在“读”,而在“写 ”。“劳于 读书 , 逸于写作”,是不可取的,阅读与写作是密不可分的一个整体,读过几百本书,品过些许人的文字,就好比是下过一场透雨的小溪,溪水上涨,语言便要喷涌。那就写吧,这时候的孩子,是拈花微笑,信手写来,足以能创造出自己心仪的作品。一个人能够铺开来读,拈起来看,最终必定能够用笔播种,用文字镌刻心灵。蒋昕捷 ,在《赤兔之死》中创新改编名句“士为知己者死,女为悦己者容”为“士为红颜知己而死,人因诚信而生存”,通篇用纯熟的古白话,散整错综,明白畅晓,让《赤兔之死》立意高远,文采飞扬,锦上添花。俗话说:“熟读唐诗三百首,不会作诗也能吟。”通过阅读和积累,会自然内化成写作水平。读破百部书,手写千万言,读而后作,一路阅读一路思索,一路尝试一路创作,享受文字的魅力,语言的奥妙,不知不觉中,提升自己的写作品质和能力。
一、标点之误
“正像达尔文发现有机界的发展规律一样，马克思发现了人类历史的发展规律，即历来为繁芜丛杂的意识形态所掩盖着的一个简单事实：人们首先必须吃、喝、住、穿，然后才能从事政治、科学、艺术、宗教等等；所以，直接的物质的生活资料的生产，从而一个民族或一个时代的一定的经济发展阶段，便构成基础……”
其中“然后才能从事政治、科学、艺术、宗教等等”后的分号，明显是一处误用，因为分号常用于“表示一句话中间并列分句之间的停顿”。而“人们首先必须吃、喝、住、穿，然后才能从事政治、科学、艺术、宗教等等”是一个完整的句子，与“所以，直接的物质的生活资料的生产，从而一个民族或一个时代的一定的经济发展阶段，便构成基础……”既非同属一个句子，也非并列分句，所以此处应该用句号。
还有第四段，“不仅如此。马克思还发现了现代资本主义生产方式和它所产生的资产阶级社会的特殊的运动规律。”“不仅……还……”，它是一套关联词，是一句话，中间不能用句号隔开，明显应该用逗号。
第七段“最早的《莱茵报》（1842年），巴黎的《前进报》（1844年），《德意志—布鲁塞尔报》（1847年），《新莱茵报》（1848—1849年），《纽约每日论坛报》（1852—1861年）”，各个报纸名称的罗列，相当于各个名词的罗列，各名词间的停顿应用顿号，不能用逗号。
二、连词之误
第三段中“直接的物质的生活资料的生产，从而一个民族或一个时代的一定的经济发展阶段，便构成基础”，其中“从而”一词，解释为“上文是原因、方法等，下文是结果、目的等；因此就。”可见，它是一个表因果关系的关联词，而此处“从而”前是一个短语，其中心语是“生产”，其后的短语中心语是“经济发展阶段”，二者是并列关系，不具备使用“从而”的条件，应换作“以及”等词。还有“人们的国家设施、法的观点、艺术以至宗教观念，就是从这个基础上发展起来的”，其中的“以至”，“表示在时间、数量、程度、范围上的延伸。”而“国家设施、法的观点、艺术”与“宗教观念”明显是并列关系，并不存在“延伸”。
三、语序之误
课文第二段“这个人的逝世，对于欧美战斗的无产阶级，对于历史科学，都是不可估量的损失。这位巨人逝世以后所形成的空白，不久就会使人感觉到。”应改为“这个人的逝世，对于历史科学，对于欧美战斗的无产阶级，都是不可估量的损失。这位巨人逝世以后所形成的空白，不久就会使人感觉到。”这样才能与下文照应，因为，下边第三、四、五、六段写的多是历史科学，七、八两段写的是马克思对于欧美战斗的无产阶级所做的付出。
还有，第六段开头“他作为科学家就是这样。但是这在他身上远不是主要的。”就这句话分析，它是一个过渡句，承上而启下，那么所“启”的就不应该是作为科学家的一面，而应该是别的方面。但译文却译出了：“在马克思看来，科学是一种在历史上起推动作用的、革命的力量。任何一门理论科学中的每一个新发现——它的实际应用也许还根本无法预见——都使马克思感到衷心喜悦，而当他看到那种对工业、对一般历史发展立即产生革命性影响的发现的时候，他的喜悦就非同寻常了。例如，他曾经密切注视电学方面各种发现的进展情况，不久以前，他还密切注视马赛尔•德普勒的发现。” 这还是马克思作为科学家的一面。若把这句话放于第七段开头，是比较恰当的。“他作为科学家就是这样，但是这在他身上远不是主要的，因为马克思首先是一个革命家。他毕生的真正使命，就是以这种或那种方式参加推翻资本主义社会及其所建立的国家设施的事业……”正好可以做到“承上”，即承三、四、五、六段写的历史科学；亦可做到“启下”，即启七、八两段写的马克思对于无产阶级所做的付出。
四、语法之误
“最早的《莱茵报》（1842年），巴黎的《前进报》（1844年），《德意志—布鲁塞尔报》（1847年），《新莱茵报》（1848—1849年），《纽约每日论坛报》（1852—1861年），以及许多富有战斗性的小册子，在巴黎、布鲁塞尔和伦敦各组织中的工作”，这段话没有一个动词，亦无主语，相当于几个名词罗列在一块，不知所云，严重违反语法规范。
恩格斯的原文写得非常流畅而严密，富有感情与文采，堪作议论文与悼词的典范。既然作为一篇保留的课文，就要把它翻译好，译出恩格斯思维的严密，译出恩格斯情感的真挚，把一篇经典译成经典。
