卡特·德魯茲出生在弗吉尼亞州。他熱愛自己的父母、自己的家鄉(xiāng)以及南方這片土地。但他同樣也深愛著自己的祖國。1861年秋季的一個早晨,也正是國家倍受內(nèi)戰(zhàn)煎熬之時，這位年輕的弗吉尼亞人平靜而嚴肅地說：“父親，來了一個聯(lián)邦軍團，我要去參加他們的軍隊?！?精選課件Text:AHorsemanintheSky2.Theoldmanlookedathisonlysonforamoment,tooshockedtospeak.Thenhesaid,“AsofthismomentyouareatraitortotheSouth.Pleasedon’ttellyourmotheraboutyourdecision.Sheissick,andwebothknowshehasonlyafewweekstolive.”2老人看著他唯一的兒子，一時震驚得說不出話來。過了一會，他說：“從現(xiàn)在起你就背叛南方了。請不要把你的決定告訴你母親，她正病著，而且我們都知道她活不了幾個星期了?！盿sof:自……起8精選課件Text:AHorsemanintheSky3.Carter’sfatherpaused,againlookingdeepintohisson’seyes.“Carter,”hesaid,“nomatterwhathappens—besureyoualwaysdowhatyouthinkisyourduty.”4.BothCarterDruseandhisfatherleftthetablethatmorningwithabrokenheart.AndCartersoonlefthishome,andeveryoneheloved,toweartheblueuniformoftheUnionsoldier.3卡特的父親頓了頓，再次深深注視著兒子的眼睛?！翱ㄌ?，”他說，“無論發(fā)生什么事，一定要完成你心目中應盡的職責?！?那天早上卡特·德魯茲和父親離開餐桌時都很傷心。不久，卡特離開了家，離開了所有他愛的人，穿上了聯(lián)邦軍士兵的藍色制服。9精選課件Text:AHorsemanintheSky5.Onesunnyafternoon,afewweekslater,CarterDruselayatfulllengthuponhisstomach,hisfeetrestinguponhistoes,hisheaduponhisleftforearm.Hisextendedrighthandlooselygraspedhisrifle.Hewassleepingwhileonduty.Ifdetectedhewouldbedeadshortlyafterward,deathbeingthejustandlegalpenaltyofhiscrime.Fortunately,noonecouldseehim.Hewashiddenbysomebushes,growingbythesideoftheroad.5幾周后一個陽光明媚的下午，卡特·德魯茲直挺挺地俯臥著，腳尖頂?shù)兀^枕著左前臂，攤開的右手松散地握著來復槍——他在放哨時睡著了，一旦被發(fā)現(xiàn)，他會即刻丟掉性命，而死亡是對他的罪行公正合法的懲罰。幸運的是，沒有人看到他，因為他被路邊的灌木叢遮住了。lieupon/onone’sstomach:
