Dear Abby, I feel like I almost can’t breathe now. I work a ridiculous amount of hours and I don’t have time to relax. My parents live 1,400 miles away and I am here all by myself. I have no time to make friends. Sometimes I feel I don’t even have a life. What should I do? Kind regards, John

Unit3奥斯陆I remember on my first trip to Europe going alone to a movie in Copenhagen. In Denmark you are given a ticket for an assigned seat. I went into the cinema and discovered that my ticket directed me to sit beside the only other people in the place, a young couple locked in the sort of passionate embrace associated with dockside reunions at the end of long wars. I could no more have sat beside them thanI could have ask to join in--it would have come to mush the same thing--so I tooka place a few discreet seats away.1记得我第一次去欧洲旅行的时候，我在哥本哈根独自一人去看电影。
在丹麦，电影票是对号入座的。
(此文来自袁勇兵博客)我走进电影院，发现在我的票对应的座位旁，只有一对年轻情侣。
这对情侣如胶似漆地拥抱在一起，如同一场持久战争结束后码头上亲人的团聚。
我很不情愿坐在他们旁边，就如我绝不会要求加入他们的行为一样——这两者对我来说并没有什么不同——因此我谨慎地隔几个座位坐了下来。
People came into the cinema, consulted their ticket and filled the seats around us. By the time the film started there were about 30 of us sitting together in a tight pack in the middle of vast and otherwise empty auditorium. Two minutes into the movie, a woman laden with shopping made her way with difficulty down my row, stopped beside my seat and told me in a stern voice, full of glottal stops and indignation, that I was in her place. This cause much paly of flashlights among the usherettes and fretful re-examining of tickets by everyone in the vicinity until word got around that I was an American tourist and therefore unable to follow simple seating instructions and I was escorted in some shame back to my assigned place.2人们陆续地走进影院，参照电影票找到位子，在我们周围坐了下来。

Starting out—Task 3
Dear John, I used to live a life just like yours. I can see myself in you when I finished my college and started my first job. I found a job as junior reporter for Chicago Daily so I moved from Houston to Chicago. I was working 18 hours a day in a place where I knew few people. My health finally broke down from too much work and poor diet. I stayed in hospital for two weeks. My parents came to Chicago and took care of me. After I was out of hospital, I quitted my job and moved back to Houston, where I found a job in a local newspaper. I visited my parents often and I had time to hang around with my friends whom I had known for years as well as those I newly made. I felt happy finally. So my suggestion is to take some time off your work and go back to visit your parents and friends. Consider changing a job which requires fewer hours so that you may have time to make friends. You may also try to take classes on a subject you are interested in or pursue a hobby. You are sure to find life worth living. Yours, Abby

Unit1TRAITS OF THE KEY PLAYERSDavid G. Jensen核心员工的特征大卫·G．詹森1 What exactly is a key player? A "Key Player" is a phrase that I've heard about from employers during just about every search I've conducted. I asked a client - a hiring manager involved in a recent search - to define it for me. "Every company has a handful of staff in a given area of expertise that you can count on to get the job done. On my team of seven process engineer and biologists, I've got two or three whom I just couldn't live without," he said. "Key players are essential to my organization. And when we hire your company to recruit for us, we expect thatyou'll be going into other companies and finding just that: the staff that another manager will not want to see leave. We recruit only key players."1核心员工究竟是什么样子的?几乎每次进行调查时，我都会从雇主们那里听到―核心员工‖这个名词。

“Business happens 24/7/365, which means that competition happens 24/7/365, as well,” says Haut. “one way that companies win is by getting ‘there’ faster, which means that you not only have to mobilize all of the functions that support a business to move quickly, but you have to know how to decide where ‘there’is! This creates a requirement not only for people who can act quickly, but for those who can think fast with the courage to act on their convictions. This needs to run throughout an organization and is not exclusive to management.”“一年365天，一周7天，一天24小时，生意始终在进行，那意味着一年365天，一周7天，一天24小时，竞争也同样在进行，”豪特说，“公司取胜的方法之一就是要更快地到达‘目的地’！这就是说，你不仅要把所有能支持公司快速运转的功能都调动起来，而且还得知道如何决定‘目的地’是哪里。
这样，不仅对那些行动快速的人们，也对那些思维敏捷，并有勇气按自己的想法行事的人们都提出了要求。
这需要全公司各部门的运作，而不仅仅是管理部门的工作。
”Lastly,professional status encompasses adherence to ethical standards. Most lawyers find self-worth in setting an example-both within the profession and within the larger society-as ethical actors. When management affirms the special respect due to lawyers who act with the utmost integrity and civility in all of their professional dealing, it provides yet another form of compensation.最后，职业地位包含对职业标准的遵守。

Unit8像大山一样思考奥尔多•利奥波德A deep chesty bawl echoes from rimrock to rimrock,rolls down the mountain,and fades into the blackness of the night.It is an outburst of wild defiant sorrow,an of contempt for all the adversities of the world.1一个发自肺腑的低沉而又尖厉的号叫在悬崖之间回荡，最后划过大山，消逝在远方深沉的夜色中。
这声号叫爆发出一种充满野性和反抗的哀愁，爆发出对世界上一切逆境的蔑视。
Every living thing(and perhaps many a dead one as well)pays heed to that call.To the deer it is a reminder of the way of flesh,to the pine a forecast of midnight scuffles and of blood upon the snow,to the coyote a promise of gleaning to come,to the cowman a thread of red ink at the bank,to the hunter a challenge of fang against bullet.Yet behind these obvious and immediate hopes and fears there lies a deeper meaning,known only to the mountain itself.Only the mountain has lived long enough to listen objectively to the howl of a wolf.2大山中所有的生物(可能也包括许多死去的生物)都侧耳倾听着这声号叫。

或许面对变化，我们的最佳保障是拥有优秀的头脑。
要培养优秀的头脑，学生需要掌握学习方法，培养学习兴趣。
未来的世界所需要的人才应该具备很强的适应能力，而且他们灵活而机敏，当其所从事的工作技术上落伍时，他们依然能够于逆境之中站稳脚跟，而且他们有能力应对突发的意外。
2To educate for flexibility we must distinguish between training and education. To train is to emphasize fixed responses, to stress immediate goals to the neglect of long-term growth . To educate, however, is to foster limitless growth, lifelong learning, to develop the good mind.2 要培养灵活的头脑，我们需要区别什么是训练，什么是教育。
训练就是加强固定的反应，重视即时目标，而忽略长远发展。
教育则旨在促进无限的成长，鼓励终生的学习，培养优秀的头脑。
3Mark Twain's story about the cat is in order here. He said that a cat that jumps onto a hot stove will never jump on a hot stove again. Nor, he added, will she ever jump on a cold one. The cat can be trained but, contrary to what cat-lovers may say, cannot be educated.3 这里刚好可以用上马克•吐温讲的猫的故事。
他说跳到热火炉上的猫再也不会往热火炉上跳。
他还补充说，这猫甚至再也不会往冷的炉子上跳。
猫可以接受训练，不过，与爱猫人士的说法相反，猫是无法被教育的。
4The person educated for flexibility will see the world in a fresh, inventive way. Such a person is not chained to the immediate, the customary, the habitual, not dependent on someone else to plan the route and show how to get there. Such persons will chart their own course.4 懂得应对变化的人看待世界的视角新颖、富有独创性。
这样的人不会受到眼前利益、传统惯例、固定习惯等的束缚，他无需依赖外人为他设定路线，指明途径。
这样的人懂得绘制自己的行程。
5 To develop the flexible person with the good mind we must favor those learning experiences that have high transfer value to varied life situations. We must learn how to teach skills, attitudes, and concepts so that they not only meet current needs but can be generalized to future needs as well.5 为了培养具备优秀头脑和良好适应力的人，我们应该提倡那些能够适用于不同人生境遇、具有高“转移价值”的学习经验。
我们必须学习如何传授技巧、态度和理念，使它们不仅可以满足目前的需要，还具有普适性，能够满足未来的需要。
6、Education for flexibility will certainly include guidance in the fine arts. If we accept Dewq's definition of art as "the intensification of the ordinary," then the teacher's task is to help learners turn the common place into the creative. Mel Strawn of Antioch College described this approach to learning as "a heightening of the individual's perceptual awareness, an intensification of his sense of form. He sees more and comprehends more of what he sees."6 适应性教育无疑应该包含艺术教育。
如果我们接受杜威的定义，认为艺术是“对平常事物的强化”，那么老师的职责应该是帮助学习者化平常为新颖。
安条克学院的梅尔•斯特朗将这种学习的方法描述为“提升个人的感性意识，增强对形式的领悟力。
接受这种教育的人会于其所见之外有更多发现，更多感悟。
”7 In Anne Morrow Lindbergh's book, Hour of Cold, Hour of Lead: Diaries and Letters 1929-1932, she says that "an experience was not finished until it was written or shared in conversation." She also makes the point that "truth that is locked up in the heart-or in a diary-is sterile." It must be given back to life so that "the hour of lead" may be transformed or transmuted into the hour of gold. The good mind is a sharing mind.7 安•莫罗•林德伯格在她的著作《黄金之时，领路之时，1929——1932年日记与信札》中说，“一次经历只有在写下来或对别人述说后才能算结束。
”她还说，“深藏在心中或日记里的真理是没有结果的。
”真理必须重返生活，“领路之时”才可能被转换成黄金之时。
优秀的头脑是善于分享的头脑。
8 An inescapable element in education for flexibility is an attitude favorable to change.This is hard to develop. It requires faith in oneself and in the future. Insecure people dread change. They walk backwards into the future, clinging anxiously and defensively to the past.8 无可否认，适应性教育的要素之一是欣然接受变化的态度。
这种态度不易培养。
它需要人们对自我以及未来充满信心。
缺乏安全感的人害怕变动。
他们倒退着走向未来，焦虑而防卫性地牢牢抓紧过去。
9 Often such people think they don't amount to much. They do not accept themselves and consequently do not accept others. Thus they remain either negative or emotionally immature in their outlook toward the future. Lacking insight into their own feelings of inadequacy and unimportance, they shrink their world to meager and manageable proportions. They may wish to be more flexible, more open-minded, but they do not feel up to it.9 通常，这些人会认为自己微不足道。
