2017考研英语课堂：林肯总统演讲
关键词:考研英语,2017考研考研英语的题材涵盖面总是很广，但对于广大2017考研学子来说，日复一日的复习好像已经占满了自己所有的时间，导致大家对很多常识不了解，今天，小编就给大家展示一篇林肯的著名演讲，希望大家能有所收获哦~
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.

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.
短短的一小段演讲，他用到了两个排比结构，一个是动词的三联动，一个是that 从句的三联动，当我们去聆听的时候，看到这样的文字必定是为之震撼的。而这样的句型我们在欣赏的同时，完全可以学习来用。在写作中想要表达强烈的情感的时候不妨试试这种三联动的排比结构，相信会屡试不爽，效果绝佳的!
