• Part III: (Para 11-13)
• The author argues that the media are obliged to serve as the “public philosopher”, responsible for affecting the public attitude in the right manner (obligations of the media) . And this explains why progress (“good news” ) should be reported.

"The essential lesson most people still resist is that they are members of one species. It is this that we all share—the emergence of a common destiny and the beginning of the perception, however misty, that something beyond the nation will have to be brought into being if the human race is to have any meaning."

课文翻译高级英语5Unit6 Where Is the News Leading Us?不久前我应邀参加了一次有关美国报业的作用的公众研讨会。
还有另外两个嘉宾也出席了。
一位是知名的电视节目主持人，另一位是美国一家主要报纸的编辑，他是一位彻头彻尾的新闻工作者---- 在据实报道的方式上坚忍不拔、积极进取且见识过人。
据我所知本次研讨旨在审查传媒的义务，并提出实现那些义务的最佳途径。
在公开讨论时，观众席中的一位男士向两位嘉宾提问，“为什么报纸和电视新闻节目都充斥灾难？为什么新闻界的男男女女对悲剧、暴力、和失败是如此关注？”主持人和编辑作出了回答，好像是自己应该为坏消息的存在而受到谴责一样。
他们说，新闻工作者只负责报道新闻，而不负责制造或修改新闻。
我不认为这两位新闻工作者回答了这个问题。
提出这个问题的先生并没有因为世上的歪曲报道而谴责他们。
他只是想知道为什么报道得最多的是歪曲的事件。
新闻媒体的运作理念似乎是凡是新闻皆坏事。
为什么呢？是不是着重报道负面减了自由社会所需的动力，绝望和偾世的情绪使人没有动力迎接严峻的考验。
我并非暗示可以编造“积极”的新闻来抵消头版上灾难报道的作用。
也没有把青年基督会作用的深刻报道定义为“正面”新闻。
我要传递的观点是，新闻媒体的职责是搜寻并报道重大事件，无论它们是否有关冲突、对抗或灾难。
这个世界是天堂和地狱的绝妙结合，两个方面都需要关注和观察。
我希望新闻界人士能从更宽广的角度审视自己的职责。
是时候认识到人类事件中可以作为新闻报道的范围领域是极其宽广的。
例如，有几篇新闻文章报道过固氮作用——植物通过这一过程能固定氮肥，由此减低了肥料需求量？全世界的科学家都在为这一前景而努力，希望借此解决饥荒。
对远东地区水稻产量提高的巨大进步又了解多少？事实上，世界上还有许多类似的重要发展，这些都值得做重要的新闻综合报道。
主持人和编辑说得对，新闻工作者并没有责任来塑造世界，但是他们有责任影响我们的态度。

news is bad news.(l.15)2.Civilization is a lot more than the sum total of its catastrophes(l.24)3.I am not suggesting that"positive"news be contrived as an antidote to the disasters on page one.(l.35)4.The world is a splendid combination of heaven and hell,and both sectors call for attention and scrutiny.(l.39)III.Translate the paragraphs below into ChineseFocusing solely on these details,however,produces a misshapen picture.Civilization is a lot more than the sum total of its catastrophes.The most important ingredient in any civilization is progress.But progress doesn’t happen all at once.It is not eruptive.Generally,it comes in bits and pieces,very little of it clearly visible at any given moment,but all of it involved in the making of historical change for the better.It is this aspect of living history that most news reporting reflects inadequately.The result is that we are underinformed about positive developments and overinformed about disasters.This,in turn,leads to a public mood of defeatism and despair,which in themselves tend to be inhibitors of progress.An unrelieved diet of eruptive news depletes the essential human energies a free society needs.A mood of hopelessness and cynicism is hardly likely to furnish the energy needed to meet serious challenges.Complete the following sentences with relevant information.1.Mass communication differs from

unit 6 where is the news leading us讲课教案
Examples from Text
Norman Cousins' essay "Where Is the News Leading Us?" is a good example of argument. It aims to argue for the premise that the responsibility of the news media is to search out and report on important events. It also aims at persuading newsmen and women to take up this responsibility.
What is a Good Argument

Definition of Argument
Argument is a reason or a set of reasons given with the aim of convincing others that an action or idea is right or wrong or persuading others to believe in something.
Are they, knowingly or unknowingly, influencing the attitude of the public towards what they are reporting in particular or even their outlook on life in general?
In some arguments, the author's position is presented at the beginning of his writing and then he goes on to support it in various ways. Or the author may present his argument at the end of his writing as the result of logical inference. But neither of these is the way in which Cousins organizes his essay. It is somewhere near the middle ofesentation of his viewpoint.

Unit6 Where Is the News Leading Us?不久前我应邀参加了一次有关美国报业的作用的公众研讨会。
还有另外两个嘉宾也出席了。
一位是知名的电视节目主持人，另一位是美国一家主要报纸的编辑，他是一位彻头彻尾的新闻工作者---- 在据实报道的方式上坚忍不拔、积极进取且见识过人。
据我所知本次研讨旨在审查传媒的义务，并提出实现那些义务的最佳途径。
在公开讨论时，观众席中的一位男士向两位嘉宾提问，“为什么报纸和电视新闻节目都充斥灾难？为什么新闻界的男男女女对悲剧、暴力、和失败是如此关注？”主持人和编辑作出了回答，好像是自己应该为坏消息的存在而受到谴责一样。
他们说，新闻工作者只负责报道新闻，而不负责制造或修改新闻。
我不认为这两位新闻工作者回答了这个问题。
提出这个问题的先生并没有因为世上的歪曲报道而谴责他们。
他只是想知道为什么报道得最多的是歪曲的事件。
新闻媒体的运作理念似乎是凡是新闻皆坏事。
为什么呢？是不是着重报道负面新闻是一种传统——是新闻工作者所习以为常的对日常事件作出的反应方式？在此或许分析一下我们如何定义“新闻”一词会有所帮助，因为这是问题的起因。
新闻应该是报道过去十二小时，最迟二十四小时内所发生的事情。
然而，突发事件往往具有爆炸性的：一名狙击手枪杀了几名行人，一名恐怖分子劫持了飞机上250名人质，欧佩克石油组织宣布原油价格上涨25%，英国货币又贬值10%，一辆载有放射性废料的卡车与一架水泥搅拌车相撞。
然而，一味聚焦这些报道，则是失真的画面。
人类文明成果远远多于灾难总和。
每种文明中最重要的成分就是进步。
但进步不会立即发生，也没有爆发性。
一般来说，它是一点一滴逐步发展的，在某个特定时刻是微不足察的。
但是所有微小的进步都参与了历史性的巨变的实现，使社会更加美好。
就是这类活生生的历史，绝大多数的新闻媒体没有予以充分的反映，结果导致我们对社会的正面发展了解不足，对灾难却知之甚多，这又使人产生失败和绝望的情绪，而这些情绪易于阻碍社会进步。

In a 1984 forum at the University of California, Berkeley entitled “Quest for Peace,” Cousins recalled the long editorial he wrote on August 6, 1945, the day the United States dropped the bomb in Hiroshima. Titled “The Modern Man is Obsolete,” Cousins, who stated that he felt “the deepest guilt” over the bomb’s use on human beings, discussed in the editorial the social and political implications of the atomic bomb and atomic energy. He rushed to get it published the next day in the Review, and the response was considerable, as it was reprinted in newspapers around the country, and enlarged into a book that was reprinted in different languages.
