Mostly because he doesnt want Morrie to see his eyes and understand what he is thinking.第11頁/共117頁Tuesdays with Morrie譯文Digging1 Morrie was focused. There were good days and bad days now. He was having a good day. The night before, he had been entertained by a local a cappella group that had come to the house to perform, and he relayed the story excitedly, as if the Ink Spots themselves had dropped by for a visit. Morries love for music was strong even before he got sick, but now it was so intense, it moved him to tears. He would listen to opera sometimes at night, closing his eyes, riding along with the magnificent voices as they dipped and soared.Background information第12頁/共117頁Digging2 “You should have heard this group last night, Mitch. Such a sound!”3 Morrie had always been taken with simple pleasures, singing, laughing, dancing. Now, more than ever, material things held little or no significance. When people die, you always hear the expression “You cant take it with you.” Morrie seemed to know that a long time ago.第13頁/共117頁譯文Digging4 “Weve got a form of brainwashing going on in our country,” Morrie sighed. “Do you know how they brainwash people? They repeat something over and over. And thats what we do in this country. Owning things is good. More money is good. More property is good. More commercialism is good. More is good. More is good. We repeat itand have it repeated to usover and over until nobody bothers to even think otherwise. The average person is so fogged up by all this, he has no perspective on whats really important anymore.第14頁/共117頁譯文Digging5 “Wherever I went in my life, I met people wanting to gobble up something new. Gobble up a new car. Gobble up a new piece of property. Gobble up the latest toy. And then they wanted to tell you about it. Guess what I got? Guess what I got?第15頁/共117頁譯文Digging6 “You know how I always interpreted that? These were people so hungry for love that they were accepting substitutes. They were embracing material things and expecting a sort of hug back. But it never works. You cant substitute material things for love or for gentleness or for tenderness or for a sense of comradeship.第16頁/共117頁譯文Digging7 “Money is not a substitute for tenderness, and power is not a substitute for tenderness. I can tell you, as Im sitting here dying, when you most need it, neither money nor power will give you the feeling youre looking for, no matter how much of them you have.”第17頁/共117頁譯文Digging8 I glanced around Morries study. It was the same today as it had been the first day I arrived. The books held their same places on the shelves. The papers cluttered the same old desk. The outside rooms had not been improved or upgraded. In fact, Morrie really hadnt bought anything new except medical equipment in a long, long time, maybe years. The day he learned that he was terminally ill was the day he lost interest in his purchasing power.第18頁/共117頁譯文Digging9 So the TV was the same old model, the car that Charlotte drove was the same old model, the dishes and the silverware and the towels all the same. And yet the house had changed so drastically. It had filled with love and teaching and communication. It had filled with friendship and family and honesty and tears. It had filled with colleagues and students and meditation teachers and therapists and nurses and a cappella groups. It had become, in a very real way, a wealthy home, even though Morries bank account was rapidly depleting.第19頁/共117頁譯文Digging10 “Theres a big confusion in this country over what we want versus what we need,” Morrie said. “You need food, you want a chocolate sundae. You have to be honest with yourself. You dont need the latest sports car, you dont need the biggest house.11 The truth is, you dont get satisfaction from those things. You know what really gives you satisfaction?” What?12 “Offering others what you have to give.”13 You sound like a Boy Scout.第20頁/共117頁譯文Digging14 “I dont mean money, Mitch. I mean your time. Your concern. Its not so hard. Theres a senior center that opened near here. Dozens of elderly people come there every day. If youre a young man or young woman and you have a skill, you are asked to come and teach it. Say you know computers. You come there and teach them computers. You are very welcome there. And they are very grateful. This is how you start to get respect, by offering something that you have.第21頁/共117頁Digging15 “There are plenty of places to do this. You dont need to have a big talent. There are lonely people in hospitals and shelters who only want some companionship. You play cards with a lonely older man and you find new respect for yourself, because you are needed. “Remember what I said about finding a meaningful life? I wrote it down, but now I can recite it: Devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.第22頁/共117頁Digging16 “You notice,” he added, grinning, “theres nothing in there about a salary.”17 I jotted some of the things Morrie was saying on a yellow pad. I did this mostly because I didnt want him to see my eyes, to know what I was thinking, that I had been, for much of my life since graduation, pursuing these very things he had been railing against bigger toys, nicer house. Because I worked among rich and famous athletes, I convinced myself that my needs were realistic, my greed inconsequential compared to theirs.第23頁/共117頁Digging18 This was a smokescreen. Morrie made that obvious. “Mitch, if youre trying to show off for people at the top, forget it. They will look down on you anyhow. And if youre trying to show off for people at the bottom, forget it. They will only envy you. Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone.”19 He paused, then looked at me. “ Im dying, right?” Yes. 第24頁/共117頁1.

The average person is so fogged up by all this, he has no perspective on whats really important anymore. (Line 10, Para 4)The sentence implies that false ideas, such as commercialism and materialism, prevent people from understanding the truth.fog up: The expression is used metaphorically in the sentence.

They were embracing material things and expecting a sort of hug back. (Line 3, Para 6)The writer is playing with two different senses of “embrace”, to accept something such as a new belief, idea or way of life, and to put ones arms around someone to show love or friendship. The sentence means that people were making possessions the main point of their lives, and expected to be rewarded for this by being happier.第28頁/共117頁Difficult sentences 5.

He starts visiting the old man of 79, now confined to his wheelchair with his health fading week by week. Morrie Schwartz, however, is still a great teacher and Mitch Albom discovers he still has a great deal to learn from him. After the professor died, Albom wrote a book Tuesdays with Morrie about the visits and his discussions with him. The book was published in 1997 and was a great success, heading the non-fiction best-seller list in the US for a long time. (To be continued)Background information第66頁/共117頁The basic set-up: A wise old man, who is close to death and rich with his lifes experience, passes on his wisdom to his disciples (信徒，追隨者). This is a familiar one from fiction and non-fiction. The professors talks are basically sermons, encouraging people to seek meaning in life from goodness and not material possessions. It seems to be true of all prosperous societies that people worry about where their wealth is leading them, and fear materialism will alienate them from spiritual values and make their society uncaring, selfish and money-mad. In this extract from the book the professor gives clear expression to such ideas. The style is a very simple one.Background information第67頁/共117頁Culture tipsTuesdays with Morrie (相約星期二) (1997) is an account by journalist Mitch Albom of the conversations he had with his former professor of sociology Morrie Schwartz, who was dying of motor neuron
