高口口译 E-C Unit13 Sightseeing 旅游观光 P1 Seattle is famous for its damp weather and its own rainforest. Seattleites will say how rain keeps the city ever green, how clear the air tastes afterwards. The sunny gorgeous weather and blue skies draw Seattleites from their cozy little homes, ready to dry out and have fun. People go hiking, biking and canoeing. Folks work in their garden, wash their cars and attend outdoor concerts in the park, all in the same day. People host barbecues picnics and water-skiing. It’s a sin around here to not thoroughly enjoy every moment of every golden day.

I was beset by a concern that spring might not occur that year. The landscape looked forsaken .Hills and forest formed a single grey, like the wash an artist paints on a canvas before the masterwork. But on May 3 that year I awoke to a green so startling as to be almost electric, as if spring were simply a matter of flipping a switch. Hills sky and forest revealed purple blue and green. The leaves had unfurled goldfinches had arrived at a feeder, daffodils were fighting their way heavenward. 情绪低落 My spirits ebbed 四月天的雪 during a April snowfall 一个念头困扰着我 I was beset by a concern 景色看上去很凄凉 the landscape looked forsaken Forsake 丢弃/不要 A forsaken child/lover 看上去孤单 Look forsaken 灰蒙蒙一片 form a single grey 作画前在画布上上
