跨文化交际-unit1-6-课后translation中英对照Unit 1 Page 22The growth of intercultural communication as a field of study is based on a view of hi story that clearly demonstrates people and cultures have been troubled by a persistent i nability to understand and get along with groups and societies removed by space, ideol ogy, appearance, and behavior from their own. What is intriguing about many of huma n civilization's failure is that they appear to be personal as well as global. The story of h umankind is punctuated with instances of face-to-face conflicts as well as international misunderstanding--major and minor quarrels that range from simple name-calling to i solationism or even armed conflict.It is obvious that increased contact with other cultures and subcultures makes it impe rative for us to make a concerted effort to get along with and to try to understand peop le whose beliefs and backgrounds may be vastly different from our own. The ability, thr ough increased awareness and understanding, to peacefully coexist with people who do not necessarily share our lifestyles or values could benefit us not only in our own neigh borhoods but could be the decisive factor in maintaining world peace.纵观历史,我们可以清楚地看到,人们由于彼此所处地域、意识形态、容貌服饰和行为举止上存在的差异,而长久无法互相理解、无法和睦相处。

一天,爸爸说春天来了。

大森林中的雪已经开始融化。

午间的时侯,屋檐下所有的大冰柱在阳光下颤动闪烁在冰柱尖儿上,一颗颗小水珠摇摇欲坠。

爸爸说,他得去城里一趟,卖掉他一冬捕获的兽皮。

一天晚上,他扎了很大一捆毛皮。

妈妈很担心。

但爸爸说,如果日出前就出发,并且快些走,他可以在天黑前赶回来。

劳拉和玛莉从没见过城镇,也没见过商店。

她们甚至从未见过两幢连在一起的房子。

但是她们知道城里有好多的房屋,还有一家满是糖果、印花布和其他神奇东西的商店。

在那里可以买到火药、子弹、盐和糖。

她们知道,爸爸会用毛皮从镇上的店主那儿换回漂亮东西的。

整整一天,她们等着爸爸给她们带回礼物。

太阳下沉到树梢上,冰柱上的水也不再往下滴,她们开始急切地盼望着爸爸的归来。

妈妈说,劳拉可以和她一起去挤牛奶,因为劳拉可以帮忙提灯笼。

冰雪卫士1812年,法国皇帝拿破仑带领他的大陆军进入俄国。

他已经做好了准备,对俄国人民保卫家乡进行残酷抵抗,他也准备好跨越俄国土地前去莫斯科的漫长征程。

然而,对于莫斯科那毁灭性的敌人------阴冷严寒刺骨的俄国冬日,他确没有做丝毫准备。

1914年,纳粹德国的领导者希特勒发起了对苏维埃俄国的进攻,紧接着俄国人民也奋博罗季诺起反抗了。

希特勒的军队是举世无双的。

他的战争武器已经打败了欧洲大多数反抗。

希特勒期待着一个短暂的战役,但是就像他之前的拿破仑一样,给他的却是一次惨痛的教训。

俄国的冬日再一次成为苏维埃士兵的救星。

拿破仑的战役1812年的春天,拿破仑在俄国的边境召集了一支60万人的军队。

士兵们都受过良好的训练,做事效率高,而且武器装备精良。

这支军队叫做大陆军。

拿破仑对于取得迅速胜利十分有信心,且预言说五个星期内征服俄国。

之后很快,拿破仑的军队越过涅曼河进入俄国。

拿破仑期望的迅速的决定性胜利并没有发生。

令他惊讶的是,俄军拒绝站起来反抗,取而代之的是向东方撤退,同时烧毁他们的庄稼和房屋。

大陆军紧随其后,但是向前的道路很快就被缓慢的物资供应阻碍了。

8月,法俄两军陷入斯摩棱斯克之战,双方各有一万士兵战死沙场。

然而俄军再次撤退至其领地。

拿破仑还没有取得决定性胜利。

他现在面临一个重大决定。

他是该继续追赶俄军呢?还是要留守斯摩棱斯克迎接即将来临的冬天呢?拿破仑决定赌一把,继续向448千米以外的莫斯科前进。

1812年9月7,法俄两军在距离莫斯科112千米以外的博罗季诺展开激烈战斗。

夜幕降临,3万法军和5万4千俄军要么战死沙场要重伤。

俄军再一次撤退至安全地带拿破仑对莫斯科有清楚的作战计划,但是对城市的占领却成了一场空胜利。

俄国人逃离了首都。

法军抵达后不久,一场猛烈的火灾摧毁的三分之二的城市。

拿破仑向亚历山大一世提出停战,但是俄国沙皇知道他是在等待时机:“我们应该让俄国的冬天帮我们打赢这场战争。

”拿破仑很快发现,在冬季的莫斯科,他不能为自己的军队提供粮食,衣物以及宿营地。

Unit 1 Page 22The growth of intercultural communication as a field of study is based on a view of history that clearly demonstrates people and cultures have been troubled by a persistent inability to understand and get along with groups and societies removed by space, ideology, appearance, and behavior from their own. What is intriguing about many of human civilization's failure is that they appear to be personal as well as global. The story of humankind is punctuated with instances of face-to-face conflicts as well as international misunderstanding--major and minor quarrels that range from simple name-calling to isolationism or even armed conflict.It is obvious that increased contact with other cultures and subcultures makes it imperative for us to make a concerted effort to get along with and to try to understand people whose beliefs and backgrounds may be vastly different from our own. Theability, through increased awareness and understanding, to peacefully coexist with people who do not necessarily share our lifestyles or values could benefit us not only in our own neighborhoods but could be the decisive factor in maintaining world peace.容貌服饰人们由于彼此所处地域、意识形态、纵观历史,我们可以清楚地看到,在这种情况下,而长久无法互相理解、无法和睦相处。

现代大学英语第二版精读2 Unit 1 Translation Another school year- what for

又是一个新学年——为什么上大学约翰·齐阿迪1 让我来给你们讲讲我在刚开始教书生涯时所遭到的一次惨败。

那是1940年1月,我刚从研究生院毕业,在堪萨斯大学开始第一个学期的执教。

有这么一个学生,瘦高个,样子活像一根长着头发的豆架。

他走进课堂,坐了下来,双臂交叉抱在胸前,看了看我,就像在说:“好吧,那就教我点什么吧。

”两周后我们开始学习《哈姆雷特》。

又过了三周,他走进我的办公室,双手放在臀部(双手叉腰),“你知道,”他说,“我来这儿是为了当药剂师。

我干嘛要念这些玩意儿?”因为连书都没带,他就指着我桌上的那本书说。

2 尽管我刚当老师,但我也蛮可以告诉此兄好些道理。

我本可以指出,他来报名的地方不是一家药剂学校,而是一所大学。

学业完成时他将获得一纸文凭,上面写的将是理科学士学位,而不会写“合格的捣药技术员”。

这一纸文凭不仅会证明他专修过药剂学,还会证明他受到过人类文明思想的熏陶。

也就是说,他进的不是一家技校,而是一所大学。

在大学里,学生既要接受专业训练,又要接受人文教育。

3 我本可以给他讲这一大通道理,但显然他在大学待不了多久,不会把我的话当回事。

4 不过当时我年轻气盛,责任感很强。

于是我就试着这么和他说:“在你日后的生活中,你一天的时间大概平均算下来是二十四小时,恋爱的时候会短些,失恋的时候会长些,但平均数基本上保持不变。

这中间有八个小时左右,你在睡觉。

”5 “然后在大概八个小时的每个工作日里,你会——但愿你会——努力从事有益的工作。

假设你已经上完药剂师学校,或工程、法律学校,或随便其他什么学校,在那八小时内你将运用你的专业技能。

你要做的是确保别因自己技艺不精而把氰化物掺进阿司匹林,或让公牛跃过你修建的篱笆,或因为你的无能而把你的委托人送上电椅。

这些都是有用的职业。

这些工作都需要人人应该尊重的技能,也能给你带来基本的满足感。

不说别的,很可能你要靠它们来养家糊口(换取餐桌的食物,养活你的妻子,养育你的子女)。

Unit One[1] 你看酒杯是半杯有酒而不是半杯空着的吗?你的眼睛是盯着炸面圈,而不是它中间的孔吗? 当研究者们仔细观察积极思维的作用时,这些陈词滥调突然间都成了科学问题。

Do you see the glass as half-full rather than half empty? Do you keep your eye upon the doughnut ,not upon the hole? Suddenly these cliches are scientific questions ,as researchers scrutinize the power of positive thinking.[2] 迅速增多的大量研究工作——迄今已有104 个研究项目,涉及大约15 000人——证明乐观的态度可以使你更快乐、更健康、更成功。

与此相反,悲观则导致无望、疾病以及失败,它与沮丧、孤独、令人苦恼的腼腆密切相关。

休斯敦莱斯大学的心理学家克雷格·A·安德森说:“如果我们能够教会人们更积极地思考,那就如同为他们注射了预防这些心理疾病的疫苗。

”[3] “你的能力固然重要,”匹兹堡卡内基–梅隆大学的心理学家迈克尔·F·沙伊尔说,“但你成功的信念影响到你是否真能成功。

”在某种程度上,这是由于乐观者和悲观者以截然不同的方式对待同样的挑战和失望。

[4] 以你的工作为例。

宾夕法尼亚大学的心理学家马丁·E·P·塞利格曼与同事彼得·舒尔曼在一项重要研究中对大都会人寿保险公司的推销员进行了调查。

他们发现,在工龄较长的推销员中,积极思考者比消极思考者要多推销37% 的保险额。

在新雇用的推销员中,乐观主义者则多销了20%。

[5] 公司受到了触动,便雇用了100 名虽未通过标准化行业测试但在态度乐观一项得分很高的人。

这些本来可能根本不会被雇用的人售出的保险额高出一般的推销员10%。
