精读英语课本译文Unit4十四级台阶
Unit 4 十四级台阶人们都说猫有9条命，我倾向于认为这是很可能的，因为我现在正经历着自己的第三次生命，而我还不是猫。
1904年11月，在一个晴朗、寒冷的日子，我的第一次生命开始了，成为一户农家8个孩子中的第6个。
我15岁时父亲去世, 我们全家都为了生计艰辛奔波，苦苦挣扎。
孩子们长大后，一个个娶妻嫁人，只剩下我和一个妹妹赡养和照顾母亲。
母亲晚年时瘫痪，60多岁就过世了。
不久妹妹就嫁了人，我也在当年结了婚。
这时我开始享受自己的第一次生命。
我非常幸福，身体健康，还是一名很出色的运动员。
我和妻子有两个可爱的女儿。
我在圣何塞有份不错的工作，在圣卡洛斯半岛有幢漂亮的房子。
那时的生活好像一场美梦，可好景不长，美梦终止了。
我患上了一种逐渐恶化的进行性运动神经元病，一开始侵袭我的右臂右腿，后来是身体的左侧。
就这样，我的第二次生命开始了...尽管身体有病，但是借助车上安装的特殊设备，我依然每天开车上下班。
我尽力得以保持健康和乐观，在某种程度上，是由于14级台阶。
在说疯话吧？完全不是。
我们家是个错层式建筑，从车库通向厨房门有14级台阶。
这14级台阶是生活的标尺，是我衡量自己的标准，也是我继续生存的挑战。
我觉得如果有一天我无法再提起一只脚登上一级台阶，再痛苦地拖起另一只脚——将这个过程重复14遍，直到精疲力竭（爬上去），那我就完了——到那时我就会承认失败, 然后躺下，等待死亡。
所以我坚持工作，坚持爬越这14级台阶。
时光荏苒，女儿们上了大学，并且幸福地结婚成家。
只剩下我和妻子相依为伴，守在我们那有着14级台阶的漂亮家中。
你们或许会认为，这里行走着一个充满勇气和力量的人, 事实并非如此。
这里一瘸一拐走着的是一个内心痛苦、幻想破灭的跛子。
一个靠着从车库通往后门的14级辛酸的台阶才能保持理智、没有失去妻子、房子和工作的男人。
随着年岁增长，我变得更加失望和沮丧。
1971年8月，在一个漆黑的夜晚，我开始了自己的第三次生命。
那天夜里我起程回家时正在下雨，我缓慢地驾车行驶在一条车辆稀少的路上，狂风骤雨拍打着车身。
大学思辨英语精读Unit4OrganizationandInstitution参考答案
Unit 4 Organization and InstitutionText APreparatory Work(1)a. Institutionalization: refers to the process of embedding some conception (for example a belief, norm, social role, particular value or mode of behavior) within an organization, social system, or society as a whole. The term may also be used to refer to committing a particular individual or group to an institution, such as a mental or welfare institution.b. Solitary confinement: is a form of imprisonment in which an inmate is isolated from any human contact, often with the exception of members of prison staff. It is mostly employed as a form of punishment beyond incarceration for a prisoner, usually for violations of prison regulations. However, it is also used as an additional measure of protection for vulnerable inmates. In the case prisoners at high risk of suicide, it can be used to prevent access to items that could allow the prisoner to self-harm.c. Parole: is the provisional release of a prisoner who agrees to certain conditions prior to the completion of the maximum sentence period. A specific type of parole is medical parole or compassionate release which is the release of prisoners on medical or humanitarian grounds. Conditions of parole often include things such as obeying the law, refraining from drug and alcohol use, av avoidingoiding contact with the parolee’parolee’s s victims, obtaining employment, and maintaining required contacts with a parole officer.d. Rehabilitation: is the re-integration into society of a convicted person and the main objective of modern penal policy, to counter habitual offending, also known as criminal recidivism. Alternatives to imprisonment also exist, such as community service, probation orders, and others entailing guidance and aftercare towards the offender.(2)Main publications: Influencing Attitudes and Changing Behavior (2nd ed.). Reading, MA: Addison Wesley., 1977, Psychology (3rd Edition), Reading, MA: Addison Wesley Publishing Co., 1999, Psychology And Life, 17/e, Allyn & Bacon Publishing, 2005, The Lucifer Effect: Understanding How Good People Turn Evil, Random House, New York, 2007Main research interests: social psychology, particularly prison study, social intensity syndrome study (related to discharged soldiers).(3)Name of experiment Description of theexperiment Relation of the experiment with the textExperiment on obedience A series of socialpsychology experimentsconducted by Y aleUniversity psychologistStanley Milgram. Theymeasured the willingness Closely related with the text since they are all about the effect of assigned roles.of study participants, men from a diverse range of occupations with varying levels of education, to obey an authority figure who instructed them to perform acts conflicting with their personal conscience; the experiment found, unexpectedly, that a very high proportion of people were prepared to obey, albeit unwillingly, even if apparently causing serious injury and distress.Small-world experiment (six degrees of separation) The small-worldexperiment comprisedseveral experimentsconducted by StanleyMilgram and otherresearchers examining theaverage path length forsocial networks of peoplein the United States. Theresearch wasgroundbreaking in that itsuggested that humansociety is asmall-world-type networkcharacterized by shortpath-lengths. Theexperiments are oftenassociated with the phrase“six degrees ofseparation”separation”, , althoughMilgram did not use thisterm himself.Not closely related withthe text since theexperiment is about socialnetworking betweenindividuals in the UnitedStates.Critical ReadingI. Understanding the text1.Part Para(s) Main ideaI. Anecdote and introduction 1-2 A case showing the necessity forprison reformII. Body3-10 (the experiment)The experiment of a mock prison with guards and prisoners were carried out and had to end earlier because of the frightening effect. III. Findings 11-13 (implication) Individual behavior is largelyunder the control of social forcesand environmental contingenciesrather than personality traits,character, willpower, or otherempirically un-validatedconstructs. IV IV. Conclusion . Conclusion14 (effects of prison) The prison situation is guaranteed to generate severe pathologicalreactions in both guards andprisoners as to debase theirhumanity, and make it difficult forthem to be part of a society outside of their prison. 2.(1) Zimbardo uses the specific example of a prisoner’s situation to plea plead for prison d for prisonreform and to justify the experiment he conducted about the bad effect of prison.(2) They conduct an experiment about the effects of prison on both guards andprisoners. (3) They want to understand what it means psychologically to be a prisoner or a prison guard.(4) The 24 participants are selected randomly from volunteer students in Palo Altocity and they were randomly assigned roles of guards and prisoners in a simulated prison. (5) At Stanford University in 1971.(6) The experiment has to be ended earlier than planned.(7) Because the effects of prison (abusing and being abused) on those beingexperimented are frightening.(8) The results show that people underestimate the power and pervasiveness ofsituational controls over behavior.(9) Individual behavior is largely under the control of social forces and environmentalcontingencies rather than personality traits, character, willpower, etc. Many people, perhaps the majority, can be made to do almost anything when put into psychologically compelling situations – regardless of their morals, ethics, values, attitudes, beliefs, or personal convictions.II. Evaluation and exploration(1)Hypothesis:the change of environment (including changed roles) affects one’s behavior (students are put into a mock prison and assigned opposite roles which areall different from their normal environment and role of being a student or citizen) Cause: prison and assigned new roles (changed environment)Effect: rational people with humanity were turned to abusers and victims Independent variable: the participants as human beings (the same human beings) (Stimulus: change of environment/roles)Dependent variable: behaviorThe experiment on the power and influence of roles assigned to ordinary individualsis basically valid and convincing, and similar experiments also prove that most people’s behavior are influenced by the social environment, particularly the new roles they are assigned. Unfortunately, the experiment cannot be confirmed due to the ethical concern (the harm caused by the experiment on the participants). And also, since the participants of a social experiment are humans, the result might not be exactly the same (unlike the natural science experiment which can be repeated with precision and same result).(2)Similarities: the two experiments are all about the effect of assigned roles and social expectations on the behavior of the human beings s.expectations on the behavior of the human beingDifferences: Zimbardo’s experiment focuses on the gradual change of behavior on those who are assigned new roles (prison effect) while Stanley’s experiment focuses on authority’s influence on individuals in normal circumstances (authority effect).(3)Power and its execution are closely related with the role assigned to the power-holder. The more important role he/she is given, the more likely he/she abuses it if there are no checks and balances from other institutions. It is very important to fight against corruption (in campaigns or through legal means), but it’s more important to set up mechanism to balance the role given to power-holders.(4)Zimbardo’s statement or conclusion is based on his only experiment about humans and their environment and cannot be repeated due to ethical reasons. It is reasonable to argue that most people are influenced by the (change of) environment and adapt to it quickly, which means personal “freedom” is conditioned. However, there are exceptions, and this statement cannot explain the behavior of those heroes who stick to their principles under any circumstances and would rather die than surrender to enemy or power.(5)These exceptional examples are mostly heroes in extreme circumstances such as war or condition of life and death (Wen Tianxiang, Liu Hulan, John Brown etc.). They have to choose between life and death very quickly and sometimes they act from instinct. There are other factors that result in these exceptional cases – they all have very strong characters which have been fostered in hardship; they also have a very strong faith and are ready to die for the cause they pursue.(6)Besides the reason Zimbardo mentions (psychological factor of self-image for the donors), there are at least two more reasons. One is religious reason – most people in the West are Christians who believe in the teachings of Jesus Christ and feel a duty to help the poor (in the form of material, money, or time). The other is related to the affluence of the West where the majority of people become well-off enough to give away a fraction of their wealth or money to maintain social stability. (There’re also other reasons such as tax deduction in some countries to encourage donation.)(7)Simply put, the merit of “group think group think”” is that it can mobilize a uniformed collective force to realize some goal that individuals alone cannot hope to accomplish (through teamwork and national solidarity). The demerit of “group think” is that the group leader’s view might be one leader’s view might be one-sided and flawed, and the wrong decision or policy based -sided and flawed, and the wrong decision or policy based on it could easily lead to mistakes or even disaster. Other demerits: this situation may easily result in the circumstance of strong leader/dictator vs. obedient/populist followers; and in many case followers; and in many cases the “truth” i s the “truth” i s the “truth” is not necessary in the hands of the majority. s not necessary in the hands of the majority.(8)Clinical trials are experiments done in clinical research. Such prospective biomedical or behavioral research studies on human participants are designed to answer specific questions about biomedical or behavioral interventions, including new treatments and known interventions that warrant further study and comparison. Clinical trials generate data on safety and efficacy. They are conducted only after they have receivedhealth authority/ethics committee approvalin the country where approval of the therapy is sought. These authorities are responsible for vetting the risk/benefit ratio of the trial - their approval does not mean that the therapy is 'safe' or effective, only that the trial may be conducted. Depending on product type and development stage, investigators initially enroll volunteers and/or patients into small pilot studies, and subsequently conduct progressively larger scale comparative studies. The key point here is: All participants are volunteers who choose clinical trial when other means fail. Worldwide it is estimated that the number of vertebrate animals ranges from the tens of millions to more than 100 million used in animal experiment annually. In the EU, these species represent 93% of animals used in research. If the same was true in the US then the total number of animals used in research is estimated to be between 12 and 25 million. Most animals are euthanized after being used in an experiment. Supporters of the use of animals in experiments, such as the British Royal Society, argue that virtually every medical achievement in the 20th century relied on the use of animals in some way. The Institute for Laboratory Animal Research of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences has argued that animal research cannot be replaced by even sophisticated computer models, which are unable to deal with the extremely complex interactions between molecules, cells, tissues, organs, organisms, and the environment. Animal rights, and some animal welfare, organizations question the need for and legitimacy of animal testing, arguing that it is cruel and poorly regulated, that medical progress is actually held back by misleading animal models that cannot reliably predict effects in humans, that some of the tests are outdated, that the costs outweigh the benefits, or that animals have the intrinsic right not to be used or harmedin experimentation.Language EnhancementI.

Learn more about the function and use of except1 Study and summarize the use of except functioning as conjunction and preposition. The word "except" in these 10 sentences is either used as preposition or conjunction.1 As preposition, both "except" and "except for" are used to introduce the only person, thing, action, fact, or situation about which a statement is not true. There is no difference between "except" and "except for" except that at the beginning of a sentence, you must use "except for."2 As conjunction, "except" is not used by itself to introduce a clause, and it is used with that or a w/z-word (what/when/where/if, etc.).3 "Except" is often used with a prepositional phrase, e.g. except in/by/to, etc. •4 "Except" is also often used with an infinitive phrase with or without "to."1. except + prepositional phrase2. except +1ha/-clause3. except + noun phrase4. except + to-infinitive phrase5. except for + noun phrase6. except + fo-infinitive phrase7. except for + noun phrase8. except + when-clause shortened9. except + prepositional phrase10. except + that-clause2 Complete the sentences by translating the Chinese in brackets using except.1. except an explosion2. except to play a guitar3. except (to) relieve his pain4. except for about five minutes5. anything except in music6. except maybe to those who were dying7. except in our memory, except in our expectations of it8. except that yours are a little more radical9. except in sleep/dreams10. except how they got to know the criminal's exact whereabouts3 Translate these sentences using except.1.

About his special mission he told his family nothing except that he had to be away business for some time.4. His parents know that they don't have to do much for their son except to let him be himself.5. They asked for nothing except what was rightfully theirs.3. Study and analyze the grammatical structure of these involved sentences.1. This is a compound complex sentence. The two coordinate clauses are connected by conjunction "and." In the first coordinate clause Subject: anybody Predicate: knows Object: the city's essential platitude Subordinate clauses:1) "who knows anything about New York" modifying the subject "anybody"2) "that you don't wander around Central Park," a noun clause which is in apposition to the object "the city's essential platitude"Ill the second coordinate clause:Subject: the appealPredicate: in that was (the order of the link verb **was" and the predictive "in that" being inverted)Subordinate clause: it was the thing you don't do (here it is in apposition to the subject "the appeal")"Needless to say" is a parenthetical remark expressing the writer's opinion that what he says is obvious.2. This is also a compound complex sentence. The two coordinating clauses are connected by "but." They are:1) The park is now framed... by the city... (Here "enveloped even" is a parenthetical remark.)2) ... there was no escaping the recognition that this city... was very beautiful, ("com man-made, glaringly obtrusive, consuming wasteful and staggering quantities electricity and water and energy": This can be considered a shortened concession clawwith the conjunction "though" omitted.)4. Translate paragraphs 4-6 of the selection into Chinese.他站在下车的地方正犹豫不决的时候，听见那些年轻人向他走来，不仅是从他见到那些身影所在的那个方向，其他方向也有人朝他逼近。

大学英语精读第4册课文翻译及课后答案
大学英语精读第四册课文翻译Unit 1两个大学男孩 不清楚赚钱需要付出艰苦的劳动 被一份许诺轻松赚大钱的广告吸引了。
男孩们很快就明白 如果事情看起来好得不像真的 那多半确实不是真的。
轻轻松松赚大钱约翰•G•哈贝尔“你们该看看这个 ”我向我们的两个读大学的儿子建议道。
“你们若想避免因为老是向人讨钱而有失尊严的话 这兴许是一种办法。
”我将挂在我们门把手上的、装在一个塑料袋里的几本杂志拿给他们。
塑料袋上印着一条信息说 需要招聘人投递这样的袋子 这活儿既轻松又赚钱。
“轻轻松松赚大钱!” “我不在乎失不失尊严 ”大儿子回答说。
“我可以忍受 ”他的弟弟附和道。
“看到你们俩伸手讨钱讨惯了一点也不感到尴尬的样子 真使我痛心 ”我说。
孩子们说他们可以考虑考虑投递杂志的事。
我听了很高兴 便离城出差去了。
午夜时分 我已远离家门 在一家旅馆的房间里舒舒服服住了下来。
电话铃响了 是妻子打来的。
她想知道我这一天过得可好。
“好极了!”我兴高采烈地说。
“你过得怎么样?”我问道。
“棒极了!”她大声挖苦道。
“真棒!而且这还仅仅是个开始。
又一辆卡车刚在门前停下。
”“又一辆卡车?”“今晚第三辆了。
第一辆运来了四千份蒙哥马利-沃德百货公司的广告 第二辆运来四千份西尔斯-罗伯克百货公司的广告。
我不知道这一辆装的啥 但我肯定又是四千份什么的。
既然这事是你促成的 我想你或许想了解事情的进展。
”我之所以受到指责 事情原来是这样 由于发生了一起报业工人罢工 通常夹在星期日报纸里的广告插页 必须派人直接投送出去。
公司答应给我们的孩子六百美金 任务是将这些广告插页在星期天早晨之前投递到四千户人家去。
“不费吹灰之力!”我们上大学的大儿子嚷道。
“六百块!”他的弟弟应声道 “我们两个钟点就能干完!”“西尔斯和沃德的广告通常都是报纸那么大的四页 ”妻子告诉我说 “现在我们门廊上堆着三万二千页广告。
就在我们说话的当儿 两个大个子正各抱着一大捆广告走过来。
这么多广告 我们可怎么办?”“你让孩子们快干 ”我指示说。
