新视野大学英语第六册Section_A课文翻译及课后翻译(全)
一、课文翻译UNIT1 追求幸福美国宪法赋予美国人民追求幸福的权利，但是似乎谁也说不清幸福跑到哪里去了。
这就好比我们获得了打猎许可却无猎物可打一样。
乔纳森·斯威夫特认为幸福是"一种大上其当而浑然不觉的状态"，或者是充当"一名白痴中的傻瓜"的感觉，因为斯威夫特把社会看作是一片布满虚假目标的土地。
虚假目标的提法当然不是美国式思维。
然而，我们似乎执迷于花钱买幸福的理念。
当我们拥有足够的财力时，我们就会获得极大的成功。
与此同时，美国商业势力却大肆渲染，人为地使我们感到不幸福。
广告业是我们的主要产业之一，它的存在不是为了满足欲望，而是为了制造欲望，其速度之快为任何人的预算所不及。
这样一来，我们整个的经济就建立在使我们沉溺于贪婪的基础上。
甚至有人告诉我们通过购物来支持国家经济是我们的爱国义务。
随便翻开一本迎合妇女口味的杂志，不难发现，开头的几页广告都是艺术和口号，到了结尾的几页就都变成了药丸和疗法。
开头几页的艺术包装所展示的是对至尊美丽的渴望。
她拥有的是婴儿般的细腻皮肤。
她呼出来的是芬芳的气息。
无论她40岁、50岁、60岁，还是任何时候，她永远都拥有16岁的身段。
这就是母亲为了展示她的优美体形所使用的束带。
这是可使人肌肤恢复细嫩的护肤霜，这些是减去大腿脂肪的药片，这些是青春永驻的药丸。
很明显，任何有理智的人都不会完全被此类广告艺术、药丸或器械所打动。
不过确实有人想要花钱买这个梦，不惜为此每年花销数十亿美元。
显然，幸福市场不乏顾客，但是他们想要购买的又是什么呢？给"幸福"下定义是一个令人困惑的问题：最好的办法是先设定两个极端，然后寻求中庸。
认为幸福就是高人一等，住的是大理石豪宅，衣柜里有上百套衣服，这可成为贪婪的极端。
认为幸福就是印度圣人似的快乐，这将成为精神生活的极端。
圣人打坐，冥想着现实的本质，超脱于肉身的拖累。
如果有崇敬者给他端上食物，他就吃；如果没人给，他就饿着。

成功之残酷正在于它常常让那些追逐成功者自寻毁灭。
对一名正努力追求成功并刚刚崭露头角的艺术家，其亲朋常常会建议“正经的饭碗不能丢！”他们的担心不无道理。
追求出人头地，最乐观地说也困难重重，许多人到最后即使不是穷困潦倒，也是几近精神崩溃。
尽管如此，希望赢得追星族追捧和同行赞扬之类的不太纯洁的动机却在激励着他们向前。
享受成功的无上光荣，这种诱惑不是能轻易抵挡的。
成名者之所以成名，大多是因为发挥了自己在歌唱、舞蹈、绘画或写作等方面的特长，并能形成自己的风格。
为了能迅速走红，代理人会极力吹捧他们这种风格。
他们青云直上的过程让人看不清楚。
他们究竟是怎么成功的，大多数人也都说不上来。
尽管如此，艺术家仍然不能闲下来。
若表演者、画家或作家感到无聊，他们的作品就难以继续保持以前的吸引力，也就难以保持公众的注意力。
公众的热情消磨以后，就会去追捧下一个走红的人。
有些艺术家为了不落伍，会对他们的写作、跳舞或唱歌的风格稍加变动，但这将冒极大的失宠的危险。
公众对于他们藉以成名的艺术风格以外的任何形式都将不屑一顾。
知名作家的文风一眼就能看出来，如田纳西·威廉斯的戏剧、欧内斯特·海明威的情节安排、罗伯特·弗罗斯特或T.S.艾略特的诗歌等。
同样，像莫奈、雷诺阿、达利这样的画家，希区柯克、费里尼、斯皮尔伯格、陈凯歌或张艺谋这样的电影制作人也是如此。
他们鲜明独特的艺术风格标志着与别人不同的艺术形式上的重大变革，这让他们名利双收，但也让他们付出了代价，那就是失去了用其他风格或形式表现自我的自由。
新视野第六册A篇分段
第一单元The essay can be broadly divided into four main parts.The first part has one paragraph, i.e. Paragraph 1, which shows that everybody wants happiness but nobody can pin it down exactly.The second part consists of four paragraphs, from Paragraph 2 to Paragraph 5, which illustrate the commercial drive behind the concept of happiness. While the 18th-century author and social critic Jonathan Swift conceived of happiness as “the state of being well-deceived” means, many Americans believe that their purchasing power can be traded for concrete happiness in terms of beauty and dreams.The third part consists of four paragraphs, from Paragraph 6 to Paragraph 9. In this part the author uses two extreme definitions as a means to introduce a relatively neutral definition of happiness. From one extreme of the spiritual joy of the Indian holy man to another extreme of greedy materialism, there is a happy medium, similar to Thoreau's practice.The fourth part is, in fact, the most important part as the author makes his comments on meanings of happiness. This part is made up of four paragraphs, from Paragraph 10 to Paragraph 13. In Paragraph 10, the author points out the gist of happiness, namely, it is an effort-making process. Paragraph 11 presents as supporting evidence the effort-making process in games. In Paragraph 12, evaluation on the Eastern and Western extremes is made. In Paragraph 13, the author restates the effort-making process and answers a question raised in Paragraph 1 by providing her understanding of happiness.第二单元In this passage the author tells the story of how he became a successful writer from a poor unhappy little boy who emigrated to America,thanks to the direction and help of MissBurd, his English teacher. He particularly describes the important role Miss Burd played in his first success as a writer and what he wrote about in his first successful essay. Therefore, in the author's opinion, Miss Burd is the person who saved him from pain, loss, and misery. The following is the structural outline of the passage, and from the chart you can see how the author develops his theme.1. The first part of the passage is Paragraph 1. It introduces the background of the author.2. The second part is from Paragraph 2 to Paragraph 9. It narrates how Miss Burd first impressed the author and how she directed and encouraged him to write about his own expereince. Paragraphs 2 and 3 describe the author's first impression of Miss Burd and the way she taught. Paragraphs 4 to 9 give an account of the author's experience of how he came to write his first successful essay and what he wrote about in it.3. The third part is Paragraph 10, which shows us the author's path to success through his own efforts.4. The fourth part, Paragraph 11 and Paragraph 12, adds more about Miss Burd, her teaching career and other aspects of her life.5. The last part, i.e. the last two paragraphs, points out the theme that Miss Burd is the author's salvation, she has been and should be honored as a good teacher, and that this article is a tribute to her.第三单元In the reading passage the author narrates a long-lost history about humans in the Amazon: an introduction with a proposition, a history of exploration in the region and an attempt to lift the veil of misunderstanding that shrouds the Amazon Basin, and finally a conclusion that reaffirms the proposition.The first part is Paragraph 1, a general introduction to the passage.The second part, consisting of 3 paragraphs, from Paragraph 2 to Paragraph 4, is about European expeditions in the Amazon Basin from the time of the Renaissance through to the late 17th century.The third part is made up of 5 paragraphs, from Paragraph 5 to Paragraph 9. It is about the mistaken idea that exists in people's minds and about the evidence that is lifting the veil of misunderstanding about the human societies in the Amazon.The fourth part consists of the last two paragraphs: Paragraph 10 and Paragraph 11. It draws a conclusion: the rainforest should no longer be seen as an untouched “paradise” and that knowledge about the past has a vital role to play in planning and decision making for the future.第四单元This reading passage mainly tells a story about the author's sudden encounter in the forest with a mother wolf that had been caught by a trap and how he tried to win her confidence and set her free. It can be divided into three parts:The first part is composed of 4 paragraphs, from Paragraph 1 to Paragraph 4. It relates how the author met by chance with a wolf caught by a hunter's trap while he was prospecting for gold.And it also tells us how, in order to save the wolf from the trap, the author tried to find the mother wolf's babies and then brought them to her.The second part is from Paragraph 5 to Paragraph 7. In this part the author explains how he tried to win the mother wolf's confidence by finding her food and making friends w ith her babies. Having finally won the wolf's confidence, the author succeeded in releasing her from the trap.The third part consists of Paragraph 8 and Paragraph 9. It tells us how the author followed the mother wolf to her clan. There he spent one night peacefully and harmoniously with the wolf clan, which seems completely against nature.第五单元This reading passage offers a general review of genetic engineering achievements to date and the prospective benefits and latent perils. The author holds that what the researchers are plotting is not only a revolution in biology but also in society. The whole passage may be divided into 4 parts. Look at the following chart and you'll find:The first part of the passage is made up of the first 3 paragraphs, and is a general description of the appearance of DNA and its potential function.The second part is made up of 4 paragraphs, from Paragraph 4 to Paragraph 7. This part tells the significance of DNA research and how it is to be applied in medical treatment.The third part consists of Paragraph 8 and Paragraph 9, which gives an account of the dilemma and danger currently posed by the genetic revolution and scientists' worries about the misuse of DNA information.The last part consists of the last 2 paragraphs of the text, i.e. Paragraph 10 and Paragraph 11. This part brings forward people's different opinions of DNA research.第六单元The reading passage focuses on a social phenomenon — jeans and the culture that lies behind it. The passage can be broadly divided into three parts. The first part consists of Paragraphs 1 and 2, dealing with the social position of jeans compared to court dresses in the 19th century. The second part is from Paragraph 3 to Paragraph 8. Paragraph 3 tells us the general meaning jeans gained in the 20th century. Paragraphs 4 to Paragraph 7 deal with the specific meaning jeans expressed for anti-traditional culture in the 1950s, the black rights movement in the mid-1960s, antiwar students during the Vietnam War, feminism in the late 1960s, and fashion in the 1980s. Paragraph 8 is about the overwhelming trend of jeans shown in social life. The third part, Paragraph 9 to Paragraph 11, analyzes how blue jeans display social concepts.In the passage, the author uses many different writing techniques to develop the main ideas. One of the main techniques involved is structuring ideas into paragraphs or visually defined parts.Similarly, in a work of literature the structure is the composition of parts: chapters, episodes, acts, scenes, interludes, climaxes, turning points, stanzas. In writing about structure, you identify the plan of the work and then investigate the logical relationships between parts. The parts of the work are probably related in some or all of the following four ways: the order of chronology, space, suspenseful emotional response, and logical ideas. In this passage, the chronology, or sequence in terms of time, is applied. Most traditional stories, novels, and plays are structured according to time: they begin at the beginning of a sequence of events and move right through to the end. Many also include flashbacks, which serve purposes like g iving background or motivation at an appropriate place. The author of this passage uses common chronological order, which best suits the process of how jeans grow from low beginnings to high fashion.第七单元In this reading passage the author discusses the effects of space travel on the human body. The whole passage can be divided into two sections. The first section is composed of three paragraphs: Paragraph 1 to Paragraph 3, which is a general introduction to the passage. The second section can be subdivided into 4 parts. Paragraph 4 is the first part, referring to weightlessness as a dominant factor which leads to various related responses in human bodies. The second part consists of 4 paragraphs, from Paragraph 5 to Paragraph 8, which is about how space travelers feel in their spacecraft and why this is so. The third part is from Paragraph 9 to Paragraph 12, which deals with the actual consequences weightlessness brings about for human bodies and offers some explanations. Paragraph 13 is the last part, which points out the practical use of this research.。
