13、0 年以前是一個意大利藝術家。 今天他仍然被如一位偉大的雕刻家，畫家和建筑師。      來自一個貧窮的家庭，米開朗琪羅在意大利像任何其他的工匠一樣在很早的年齡被訓練。 在十三歲時，他開始在工作室中工作而且學習。 在工作室中，米開朗琪羅能夠學習雕刻的所有技術。 但是他不滿意, 而且外出學習過去的偉大大師的工作。 米開蘭基羅認真工作征服一個又一個問題。 當他是三十歲的時候, 他經(jīng)常被視為杰出的雕刻家之一。     &#

14、160;在 1508 年，米開朗琪羅被給予任務油漆西斯庭大教堂的天花板。 起先，他想要回絕這份工作, 說自己不真的一個畫家 , 而是一個雕刻家。 但是最后他被迫接受了它。 他然后在教堂中關上了他自己，使沒有人來在他的附近，而且準備好獨自地工作。      他花四年完成在天花板上的畫。 而且任何的平常人想像米開蘭基羅在這些四年的困難和孤單的工作中忍耐的是困難的。米開朗琪羅,在工作時,必須躺在他的背部和油漆上。 事實上，他變成如此一直向上看以致于當他

15、在此期間收到了一封信的時候,他必須抬著頭向上方讀它。 最后，畫完成了。那天花板上的畫因為教堂從而在全世界對到意大利的旅游者至今已變得有魔力。      米開朗琪羅用很多的雕刻和畫留下我們。 今天他的工廠仍然是藝術學生學習的例子,如此的吸引訪客仍然忍不住羨慕他們。 .米開朗基羅大約生活在500年前，是一位意大利的藝術家。 Today he is still remembered as a great sculptor, painter,&

16、#160;and architect. 這句話是：作為一位偉大的雕刻家，畫家，和建筑師，今天，他仍被人們所銘記。 as 的意思很多，有作為，由于，好像，當什么時候等等，這里咱們不展開，下次碰到再說。 Michelangelo, who came from a poor family, was trained at an early age like any other craftsman in I

17、taly.  一般在一節(jié)的的開頭，第一位置就是主語，或者是帶修飾語的主語。 你可以這樣說： 米開朗基羅出身于一個貧窮的家庭，他像意大利的其他工匠一樣從小就接受訓練（學手藝）。 或者不把這句斷成兩個分句： 出身于一個貧窮家庭的米開朗基羅像意大利的其他工匠一樣從小就接受訓練（學手藝）。  At thirteen, he started to work and learn in a workshop which belonged to one

18、 of the leading masters of the time.  13歲時，他開始在當時的一位大畫家的工作室工作和學習。 master 是大師的意思，leading master 是大師中的領袖人物的意思。可以說米開朗基羅的師從很不錯。這位繪畫大師名字叫做基爾蘭達約，他也是出身于工匠之家，他的作品令人感到親切，寧靜，高尚，對米開朗基羅有很大影響。 這是他畫的一副素描名叫: StudyBut he wasnt satisfied,

19、0;and went out to study the work of the great masters of the past. the work這里不是工作，而是作品的意思。其他部分翻得很好 By the time he was thirty, he was generally regarded as one of the

20、 outstanding sculptors of the age.  generally 是普遍的，總的，這里可以翻譯為：公認的 of the age 意為：那個時代，當時 當他是三十歲的時候, 他已被公認當時為杰出的雕刻家之一。 paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel 這里的paint并不是油漆的意思，這話的意思是：畫西斯廷教堂的天頂畫。 米開朗基羅是當時非常有名的雕刻家和畫家，他尤

21、其喜愛雕刻，但他的才華被他的同行嫉妒了，他們不想讓他如意搞雕刻就向教皇尤利烏斯二世推薦，說米開朗基羅的繪畫非常出色，讓他來畫西斯廷教堂的天頂畫再合適不過。教皇找到米開朗基羅命令他接下這個任務，如果拒絕就處以死刑，（在這之前教皇也命令過他去建造鈴木）米開朗基羅沒辦法，只好花了四年零五個月時間完成了一系列的巨幅天頂壁畫，讓見過的人都嘆為觀止，而他卻幾乎成了一個野人，在這么長的時間里沒剪過頭發(fā)和胡子，羅曼羅蘭的巨人傳里提到，他的靴子穿了這么長時間，也脫不下來了，只好用刀割開。And it was difficult for any ordi

22、nary person to imagine what Michelangelo endured in these four years of hard and lonely work.  而且任何普通人都很難想象在這四年中米開朗基羅所經(jīng)受的困苦和孤獨。 Michelangelo, while working, had to lie on his back&

23、#160;and paint. 工作時，米開朗基羅背靠在（懸架上）仰面躺著來繪畫。 lie on his back 就是背部著力仰面躺著，也可以直接說躺著。 The great and chapel have ever since become a fascination to people in Italy and tourists from all over

24、60;the world. ever since 是從此以后 fascination 除了魅力，魔力之外還有旅游勝地的意思。 這句話的意思是： 從此這座大教堂就成為了意大利人和世界各國游客們的旅游勝地。   Michelangelo left us with a great number of sculptures and paintings.  米開朗基羅留給我們大量雕刻和繪畫作品。 Today his works

25、 are still examples from which art students must learn, and visitors to such tourist attractions still cant help but admire them.  這里的works不是工廠的意思，而是作品的意思 works 這個詞作為整體的一個單詞是工廠的意思  

26、;作為復數(shù)形式來看是作品的意思 work 意思為工作時，不可數(shù)（這顯然有利于他們剝削剩余勞動力，幸好馬克思提出了，以勞動時間來計算產(chǎn)品的價值的理論，可惜馬克思也沒辦法改變英語的用詞習慣，）  意思為作品時，可數(shù)。 admire 在對人的時候，意思是羨慕  在對物的時候，意思是贊賞，贊嘆 這句話的意思是： 今天，米開朗基羅的作品仍然被學習藝術的學生當作范例來加以學習，來這些旅游景點參觀的游客們也情不自禁對它們（指這些作品）發(fā)出贊嘆。Word study:1.be remembered as 作為而被記住 egHe will always be rememb
