概括：这道题是阮谢钩同学的课后英语练习题，主要是关于邱吉尔，指导老师为空老师。伦道夫·邱吉尔，英国政治家。保守党内有影响的人物，第七代马尔博罗公爵的三子，英国的伟大首相温斯顿·丘吉尔的父亲。1874年与美国富豪之女詹妮·杰罗姆结婚，这是一个典型的没落贵族和暴发户之间的婚姻。同年进入下议院。在本杰明·迪斯雷利的保守政府中展现雄辩的才华。1876年因他哥哥诱拐王太子的情妇而和威尔士亲王闹翻。

题目：邱吉尔

解：

If I had my way,I would write the word "insure" upon the door of every cottage and upon the blotting book of every public man,because I am convinced,for sacrifices so small,families and estates can be protected against catastrophes which would otherwise smash them up forever.

(接下来的原版英文是:)

It is the duty to arrest the ghastly waste,not merely of human happiness,but national health and strength,which follows when,through the death of the breadwinner,the frail boat in which the family are embarked,founders and the women and children and the estates are left to struggle in the dark waters of a friendless world.

Winston Churchill

例1： 急求关于邱吉尔的一句名言是这样的.邱吉尔说过一句很经典的关于开始与结束的辨证关系大概是说现在还没有结束,或许连结束还没有开始.现在只是开始的结束.现在跪求这句话的原文完整版[英语练习题]

思路提示：

现在并不是结束,结束甚至还没有开始.但是现在可能是序幕的结束.

now isn't end ,end even still no start But now probably is preludial' end.

例2： 解释丘吉尔的一句名言thisisnottheendthisisnoteventhebeginningoftheendbut,perhaps,theendofthebeginning大概是这样[语文练习题]

思路提示：

二战北非战场的转折点是阿拉曼战役,这次战役有效歼灭了德国的有生力量.丘吉尔自己就说：“在阿拉曼战役之前,我们从未获胜过；在阿拉曼战役之后,我们从未失败过.”在这期间,尽管盟军取得了历史性的转折,但地中海形势复杂,特别是促使法国投降过程中,自由法兰西的拥护者有较多的不满,并引发了达尔朗被刺事件.此外,在此之前盟军确实取得了一连串的胜利：太平洋战场（中途岛日本战败）,北非战场（阿拉曼战役）,欧洲战场（斯大林格勒战役）,在各线战场上,盟军都得到了标志性的胜利,特别是对于欧洲人来说美军也下水了,无论是心理上还是事实上民众都有了满意和松懈的苗头,一种认为大战已即将结束,大局已定的安逸思潮在蔓延.也正是在此期间（在1942年11月10日,伦敦市府,阿拉曼战役庆祝午宴上）,丘吉尔发表了名为"The End of the Beginning"的演讲：“这不是结束,甚至这也并非结束的序幕已然到来,但或许,这是序幕已经结束!”,同一时间的罗斯福也演讲到：“现在还不是狂欢的时候,我们现在没有时间干别的事,只有为了胜利而战斗,而工作!”.

绝大多数的中译文都简简单单地进行了丘吉尔名句的直译,甚至辞不达意.对于这段话来说,(Now this is not the end.It is not even the beginning of the end.But it is,perhaps,the end of the beginning),简单把二战看作“防守-反击”过程的话,“the beginning of the end”中的end表示的是反击阶段,而“the end of the beginning”中的beginning指的是防守阶段.当然实际上二战并非如此简单的两段式的过程,然而更好理解丘吉尔这段话的含义,是应该对小过程进行抽象和凝练的.后来,此句外延被扩展了,广泛地被用于到处,表达的意义也穷期所想.不过,中译文中比较流行的一种译法“这不是结束,甚至不是结束的开始,而仅仅是开始的结束!”,还是很有一点趣味的,尽管猛一看到的时候会比较费解一点并且译文对原文的语气进行了善意的曲解.

Now this is not the end.It is not even the beginning of the end.But it is,perhaps,the end of the beginning.

Sir Winston Churchill,— Lord Mayor's Luncheon,Mansion House following the victory at El Alameinin North Africa,London,10 November 1942.

British politician (1874 - 1965)

例3： 问一句丘吉尔的名言记得最后的一句好像是：“当我们攀上最高处,可以举着V字的,代表着胜利的手势.”大致意思好像是这样的吧[英语练习题]
