第四版大学体验英语第三册--5-8单元课文翻译
第四版体验英语三5A. 无言以对几周前我乘坐出租车,司机通过后视镜看着我说:“对不起,小姐,能帮个忙吗?”精明老练的城里人都知道,对诸如“能帮个忙吗?”这样的问题,回答永远应该是“那要看是什么忙了,”或者意思相同的别的说法,而我却高声地说:“当然可以。
”“谢谢!”他说,并向后排递过来一张黄纸条。
我盯着纸条,疑心顿起:难道他在开玩笑?抑或是威胁?纸条上是几个工工整整手写的小字:proverb、peculiar、idiomatic。
“请问,这几个字是什么意思?”我沮丧地看着纸条上的字,就好像在晚会上你盯着几张以前曾经见过的面孔,却怎么也想不起他们的名字。
Proverb?Peculiar?Idiomatic?我怎么会知道?会用一个词是一回事儿,会解释可是另外一回事儿。
于是我故意转移话题。
“这些字是哪儿来的?”司机解释说他是巴基斯坦人,开车时喜欢听收音机,经常把不熟悉的、精彩的词随手记下来,然后向乘客询问它们的意思和拼法。
“Peculiar,这个词什么意思?”他问。
这个我凑合能说出来。
“指独特、古怪,经常带点儿怀疑的意味,”我说。
“谢谢您,小姐。
那么,idiomatic呢?”我清清嗓子,说:“嗯,它是指,嗯,它是语言的一种独特运用。
”我自以为“独特”一词用得很聪明,他却一脸的迷惑。
这是在提醒我,如果不能使对方明白,这词儿就不能算用得聪明。
“啊,这么说吧,idiomatic和idiom有关,而idiom是指一个国家的某一特定地区或一个民族的某一-特定人群使用的词,该地区以外的人、不属于这个群体的人一般不用或不明白它的用法。
”看着他迷惑不解的样子,我不知用什么恰当的词才好,只好继续解释下去,似乎一千个模糊的词加起来可以等于一个准确的定义。
“你能举个例子吗?我绞尽脑汁地想:“围观塞车,”这是个独特的芝加哥惯用语。
可这算得上名副其实的惯用语吗?我不得而知。
我越想惯用语,就越没有把提说清楚惯用语到底是什么?“那么proverb呢?”我本该当时就告诉这个可怜的人,我的解释也许会误导他对谚语真正含义的理解,但我却说: “我觉得谚语就是一种警语,但又不完全是。

How we see our environment shapes our whole world. Most of us see everything as independent from one another. But the reality is that everything is part of one interconnected, interrelated whole. For example, a tree may appear isolated, but in fact it affects and is affected by everything in its environment - sunshine, rain, wind, birds, minerals, other plants and trees, you, me. The tree shapes the wind that blows around it; it is also shaped by that wind. Look at the relationship between the tree and its environment and you will see the future of the tree.阿曼·莫特万:现在环境面临的最大威胁来自我们人类对环境的态度。

大学体验英语 快速阅读教程3 Unit 5 Job Hunting
Unit 5 Job HuntingTextA How to “Market” Yourself?For recent college graduates or professionals beginning a new job search, a job hunt can be an exhausting process. One of the reasons is that, according to the experts, to be successful in your job search, you have to "market" yourself, and many people just don't know how.According to Loribeth Dalton, director of career services for The Art Institute of Las Vegas, "The job search is very similar to sales and marketing. To be successful you must fellow a linear strategic plan.”For example, says Dalton, start with the two of the most important building blocks for a successful job search: the resume and cover letter. "The purpose of a r6sum6 is to tell an employer what a person has done in the past. The cover letter tells the prospective employer what skills and abilities the job seeker has that will allow them to be successful in the future with their company," she says. "Each cover letter should be made to be very specific to the job applied for,If you have limited work experience, like a new college graduate, consider creating a functional resume that emphasizes your skills. For example, says Courteau, near the top of your resume you would list such skills as knowledge of specific software, bilingual skills, or relevant volunteer experience.In your cover letter, says Kirstin Wright, graduate employment advisor at The Art Institute of Washington, "point out the strengths of your r6sum6 and direct a potential employer to things that you cannot explicitly state in your r6sum6 but that make you stand out. "In both your resumes and cover letters, please always use high quality paper.All these experts agree, thank-you notes for an interview need to be sent within one day of an interview. Thank-you notes "can be in your favor most times," says Kristin Wright. "When all other skill sets and experiences are equal, this can be the factor that gets you hired," she adds. Thank- you notes also give you the opportunity to point something out about yourself that you didn't make clear during the interview process.When i t’s to sit back and wait for the job interview calls, to calls to come in, remember to listento the outgoing message of your home answering machine or cell phone. Edie Beattie, career services advisor at The Art Institute of Charlotte, remembers calling a graduate who was actively job searching and hearing an outgoing message of "What Up?" and then some warning sounds. If a potential employer hears that, your job offer could be doomed.So whether you are a new college graduate or an experienced professional, the guidelines(方针)are the same. Write a good resume and cover letters,be organized and keep track of who you interview with,write thank-you notes and maintain aprofessional image,even if you are just at home waiting for the phone to ring.1.What does this passage mainly discuss?A.How to package yourself in everyday life.B.What kind of cover letter you should have.C.How to have a successful job search.D.How to maintain a professional image.2.What are the two important elements for success in hunting for a job?A.A good resume and cover letter.B.Keeping track of the employer and sending thank-you notes.C.A good r6sum6 and thank-you notes.D.Sending thank-you notes and keeping a professional image.3.According to the passage, the cover letter shouldA.tell the employer what you have done in the pastB.meet the specific requirements of the job applied forC.show your characteristics and habits in the pastD.be sent to the employer within one day of an interview4.The phrase "make you stand out" is closest in meaning toA.make you stand there rather than sit down.B.make you look on without doing anythingC.make you maintain your own positionD.make you be obviously better than others5.According to this passage,what should you do to maintain your professional image if you are just at home?A.Dress well to prepare for the probable visiting.e high quality paper in your cover letters.C.Keep your home clean and comfortable for a career services advisor.D.Record suitable outgoing message in your answering machine.Text B Four Easy Tips to Find a New Job FasterA)Job listings only represent about 15 percent of the overall job market. The remaining 85 percent makes up the hidden job market. To be effective in today's highly competitive job market, you have to get out there and strategically promote yourself to employers who can appreciate your value and are able to hire you.B)Having a great resume is not enough. You must take initiative and package yourself favorably to attract the best employers, and that means getting out there and promoting yourself. Self- promotion can be a huge challenge for many job seekers. Here's how to simplify the process and accelerate your progress to lessen this burden and find your next challenge swiftly.C)1.Prepare for the project.Understand that there is work to be done and no easy way out of it. Ideally, a headhunter(猎头) would do the work and find you, but don't count on this happening, especially in today's environment, where more and more companies are handling employing in-house(内部的)to reduce expenses. You have to rely on your own personal initiative to open doors. It's up to you to put your best forward by preparing for the meeting: research the company and the individual you are meeting and figure out how you can add value to the company by solving problems with your unique skills and characteristics. Even if the employer seeks you out, you still need to demonstrate that you can deliver what they expect from a winning candidate.D)2.Don't overextend yourself.Do this and you're likely to be ineffective. The key to success is focusing your job search on a limited number of target companies that you determine need your talents; then figuring ways to -get inside" these organizations to present yourself as a prospective employee. But this kind of campaign is based on quality, not quantity, so make sure that each approach is targeted and thorough, so that you don’t wear yourself out spinning your wheels pursuing lost causes.E)3. Be generous.In today's job market, doing a sample project is one of the most effective ways to establish credibility(可倍性)and gain an element critical to hiring decisions: trust. Allowing an employer to see the quality of your work before making a hiring decision decreases the employer's risk, increases goodwill, and often accelerates the hiringprocess.F)4. Be pound wise, not penny foolish.If you are questioned about your salary, put your pride aside for a moment and think dollars and cents. Once you are working, you stand a better chance of proving that you are worth more. Be sure to keep your eye on your bigger financial picture, and keep in mind how much each day of unemployment is costing you.G)By following these tips and pacing yourself through the challenge of a job search, you'll be interviewing with hiring managers in no time. Stay focused and best of luck in the job search.1. It is the first move towards finding a satisfactory job to package yourself.2. If you are questioned about your salary, you should not care too much about how much you will initially earn.3. Trust is the key factor for the managers to make hiring decisions.4. To prepare for a meeting, you should research the target company and the employers you will meet5. It is far from enough for a job seeker to focus on job listings.6. Job seekers need not only a great resume but also self promotion.7. According to the passage, increasing number of companies will not hire headhunters to do the employment in order to reduce expenses.8. If you want to find a with a company, what accounts is that you must make sure it needs your talents.9. To avoid wasting your energy in valueless working, you should ensure that every attempt is targeted and thorough.10. You may prove to your would-be employer that you are reliable and trustworthy by doing a sample project.。

Unit1 蛙的故事最近发生了几桩怪事儿。
我在北威斯康星州的树林中有一座小木屋。
是我亲手搭建的,前面还有一间花房。
住在里面相当惬意。
实际上我是在户外做音频制作和环境方面的工作--作为干这一行的工具,我还装备了一间带电脑的工作室。
还有一只树蛙也在我的工作室中住了下来。
去年十一月,我第一次惊讶地发现他〔只是这样称呼罢了,事实上我并不知道该称“他”还是“她”〕坐在电脑的音箱上。
我把他放到花房里去,认为他呆在那儿会更舒服一些。
可他又跑回来呆在原地。
很快我就习惯了有他做伴,清晨我上网查收邮件和阅读新闻的时候,他也在一旁关注这个世界。
可上周,我突然对这个爬上爬下的“小绿人或小灰人”产生了好奇心。
于是有一天,我正在工作室里干活,电脑嗡嗡作响。
当树蛙从我面前爬过时,我不得不停止工作。
他停下了并转过身来,坐在那儿看着我。
好吧,我也干脆停下来望着他。
五个月了,他一直这样陪着我。
我突然有一股强烈的欲望想了解他:为什么他要呆在这儿而不乐意呆在花房里?我认为对树蛙来说,花房显然要舒适得多。
“你为什么呆在这儿?”我情不自禁地问他。
我目不转睛地盯着他,他也直视着我。
然后我听到一种叮咚声。
这种声音似乎一下子就进入了我的大脑中枢,因为它和电脑里发出来的声音十分接近。
在那个声音里我听到树蛙对我“说”:“因为我想让你明白”。
唷,太不可思议了。
“明白什么?”我脑海中突然跳出了这个问题。
然后经过短暂的体验这种交流之后,我觉得我已经理解了树蛙待在这儿的原因。
我开始理解树蛙只是想听到其他同类的叫声并并与之交流。
或许他误以为电脑发出的声音就是其他树蛙在呼唤他。
真是有趣。
我继续工作。
我正在写一个关于全球气候变化的故事。
有个朋友刚好发过来一份,说地球的温度正以每十年1.9度的速度上升。
我知道,照这种速度下去,每年春天我都爱去提取树浆的这片枫林,到我孩子的那一代就将不复存在。
我的故乡美丽的威斯康星州也会在下一代变成一片草原。
此刻,树蛙从我脚背跳过去站在电脑前的地板上。

How do you understand the German proverb ―Wh oever cares to learn willalways find a teacher‖?3. Do you think teaching is also learning? Why?Culture notes:1. The Concepts of Lifelong EducationThe desire for knowledge is never-ending. Learning is a lifelong quest. It’s never too late and you’re ne ver too old to learn.University study isn’t just for school-leavers. The university culture is changing, with more and more people studying later in life.And it’s a g reat way to get to know new people.The story of your education is to be continued.Education is a powerful tool —a tool you can use to shape your life and the world in which you live.By making university study more accessible and achievable, continuing education programs place the tools of knowledge and learning within reach.So, the story of your education doesn’t stop here. It’s only just beginning.2. The Open University (UK)The Open University calls it ―OU supported open learning‖. It’s a method of distance learning that’s accessible to everybody living in the European Union. There are also a number of courses which can be followed online by those outside these countries.Step 2 While-reading Tasks (75 mins)1) Read the title and guess what type of writing this passage may be.
