Gettysburg Address – Abraham Lincoln Delivered on the 19th Day of November, 1983

Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought fourth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that the nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a large sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor ling remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.

It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated there to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion --- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain---that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom--- and that government of the people. By the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

在考研英語(yǔ)閱讀當(dāng)中有很多與美國(guó)歷史相關(guān)的東西，所以老師也一再?gòu)?qiáng)調(diào)希望大家在下面可以自行了解下一些簡(jiǎn)單的歷史甚至是地理情況。不僅可以擴(kuò)展知識(shí)面，還可以更好地理解文章。所以在這里就列出了林肯的這篇著名的葛底斯堡演講。在這短小有力的篇章結(jié)構(gòu)中，去領(lǐng)會(huì)語(yǔ)言的魅力，其實(shí)如果認(rèn)真探究，還可以找到很多考研的詞匯，用法，以及好的句子，句型積累以便日后的作文寫作。

經(jīng)典語(yǔ)句： 排比結(jié)構(gòu)的使用

But, in a large sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground.

It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion --- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain---that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom--- and that government of the people. By the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

短短的一小段演講，他用到了兩個(gè)排比結(jié)構(gòu)，一個(gè)是動(dòng)詞的三聯(lián)動(dòng)，一個(gè)是that 從句的三聯(lián)動(dòng)，當(dāng)我們?nèi)ヱ雎牭臅r(shí)候，看到這樣的文字必定是為之震撼的。而這樣的句型我們?cè)谛蕾p的同時(shí)，完全可以學(xué)習(xí)來(lái)用。在寫作中想要表達(dá)強(qiáng)烈的情感的時(shí)候不妨試試這種三聯(lián)動(dòng)的排比結(jié)構(gòu)，相信會(huì)屢試不爽，效果絕佳的!

小編在這里提醒各位童鞋要開始實(shí)踐在平日的一些瑣碎的零散的時(shí)間內(nèi)學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)，利用好一些碎片式的時(shí)間，堅(jiān)持的去學(xué)英語(yǔ)，才能有所突破，祝大家2017考研成功!
