Translate the underlined part of the following passage into Chinese.(总题数:1,分数:60.00)31.Penny Gold:For three people thrown together by chance, it"s interesting that we all have spent part of our lives at the University of Chicago—me as an undergraduate student, John Komlos as a graduate student, and John Goldsmith as a professor. And the three of us are close in age and in the types of disciplines chosen—I am also a historian, with additional graduate training in literature and art history. A large difference among us, however, is that my teaching career has been primarily at a small liberal arts college (Knox College), an institution that puts itsstrongest emphasis on teaching, even while research is encouraged and expected. I"m also female and began my career during a period of time in which women were just beginning to enter academia in significant numbers; this has been a formative influence on my life in the academy and in my attitudes toward it.I entered graduate school without a clear commitment to professional training. In the fall term of my senior year, I was suddenly caught up in my studies by a serendipitous concatenation of courses in medieval studies and cultural history, and I just wanted to keep learning. It happened that Stanford, where I chose to go, was giving full funding for four years to all entering history graduate students at that time (thanks to generous funding from the Ford Foundation, which was—unsuccessfully, it turns out—trying to speed completion of Ph.D. s), so I paid nothing for my graduate education, nor did I have to go into debt. The first year of graduate school was quite a shock, and if I had been spending thousands of dollars of my own money, I"m not sure I would have stayed in school. But in the end, I was very glad the financial support enticed me to stay, helping me through a rough transition. While Stanford then gave its graduate students no instruction in teaching (a situation now changed), I had the good fortune to experience excellent mentoring while I was there, and unlike John Komlos and John Goldsmith, I learned a great deal during graduate school about how the academy works. My advisor was beginning his first job as a professor in the same year I began graduate school, and I learned much from him about the demands, pleasures, and precariousness of academic life. Another professor I worked closely with was denied tenure while I was in my third year; I contributed a letter to her successful appeal and learned a good deal about academic values and processes along the way. I was at Stanford in the early years of the women"s movement (1969—1974), and my involvement in the History Graduate Students Women"s Caucus was also a crucial learning experience. The department at Stanford had only one female professor at the time, a Harvard Ph.D. who, because of nepotism rules (her husband had a position in another department), was limited to a non-tenure-track adjunct appointment. When this woman resigned, the Women"s Caucus organized an effort to persuade the department to hire a woman for a tenure-track appointment. We talked, we wrote letters, and we succeeded. Another student and I were members of the search committee that resulted. I think I learned more about how the academy works, and how one can work to change it, in that one year than in many of the rest. Also, within this early cohort of women in the academy, there was a strong sense of solidarity, amongst both graduate students and faculty, within and across institutions. We knew we needed to figure out all we could about academic institutions and procedures in order to make it as newcomers, and we helped each other out as best we could. Often without access to the "old boy" networks, we founded "new girl" networks, and these have been a crucial source of support, comfort, and help to me over the years.From Chicago Guide to Your Academic Career(分数:60.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案:()解析:我没有经过任何专业的培训,就进入了研究生院。

华东师范大学研究生英语期末考试作文汇总

华东师范大学研究生英语期末考试作文汇总第一篇:华东师范大学研究生英语期末考试作文汇总竞争与合作精神 sense of competition and cooperationEX 1Competition is a common phenomenon in our social life.We compete when we play games, we try to do better than others in our study, and there is constantcompetition for jobs, fame, wealth and so forth.We can say that, in a certain sense, competition is one of the motive forces of the development of the society.We often find competition and cooperation at the same time.Think of a football game.During the game, one team is competing against the other, but each member of the team must cooperate with his teammates.Otherwise, they would lose the game however skilled every individual player might be.While advocating competition, we must not forget cooperation.In modern society, cooperation is especially necessary because except for a few craftsmen and artists, most work is fulfilled with and through other people.In many cases, we can not achieve anything if there are only competition and no cooperation.EX 2Competition and cooperation竞争与合作Cooperation and competition are both important.They are attributes(归因于,属性)which are equally necessary for a person to achieve success in his life.Learn to be cooperative.No one likes a selfish, greedy, or arrogant(自大的)individual.However, everyone likes a considerate(体谅的)and cooperative person.Everything we do today, whether in doing business or making friends, depend upon our ability to get along with one another.In our society, most tasks demand thecooperation of many individuals so that they can be accomplished effectively.In this situation, we must be supportive(支援的)and cooperative.Each person is like a small part of a machine.If only one part is out of order, the machine can’t be running well.Besides, transportation and communication systems are rapidly developing and people all over the world can get in touch with each other more easily.It is hard for a person who is isolated(孤立的)from the society to have a deep understanding of the world he lives and to accomplish(实现)a feat(功绩)in his career.Cooperation is becoming more and more important for a person to earn a good life.Being competitive also has a place in life.If you want to achieve more success and be better than others, you must work harder, study more diligently(勤奋地), and adapt yourself to competition.The desire to succeed and do better than othersinspires(激励)us to work harder.If there were no competition, a sports meet would never be exciting and successful, and we would never have champions(冠军的地位).No doubt, we often find there is an inseparable(不可分离的)relationship between competition and cooperation.In a football match, either team is competing with other.But each member of the team is cooperating with his teammates.We cooperate with others to be more competitive;we compete to earn a better environment for cooperation.Thus we can make progress(前进)continuously.Only competition together with cooperation leads us to realize our goals and satisfy our needs.EX 3竞争与压力首段:四句话:现象描述+正方观点+正方理由1+正方理由2Living in an era of information and technology, individuals are confronted with a wide variety of competitions or pressures: in study, we suffer from academiccompetition;in work, we live under pressure of efficiency;in life, we strive against the ascending cost of living.Some are in favor of competition.In their eyes, without competition, it is impossible for the society as a whole to progress.Besides, in their opinion, competition will definitely promote the development of those who spare no effort to work, which otherwise would be impossible.二段:三句话:反方观点+反方理由1(危害)+反方理由1(危害)Rewarding as it is, others hold an opposite perspective.First, what makes many experts worried is that too many competitions may harm people’s physical and mental fitness.Second, to some extent, their opinion derives from the fact that competition between friends or colleagues may impair the friendship or team spirit.尾段:三句话:我的看法+理由+展望未来As a college student, I am firmly convinced that it is necessary to have some competition.In spite of the disadvantages, we do need competition to enhance our working and studying efficiency.Only by means of proper competition can we hope to witness the ideal scene in which every one spare no effort to their work and study.EX 4How Should College Students Relieve Pressure?Today’s college students face many pressures, mainly from parents’ expectation, study, economy, employment and all kinds of competition.[1]Although pressure to some extent can provide motivation, overdue pressure has a serious negative effect.Pressure can destroy a student’s confidence.[2]More seriously, it might make some students lose control of their emotions and behaviors.[3]Considering the great damage of overdue pressure, college students should learn to how to relieve pressure.[2]First, we should have a right evaluation of ourselves[4]so as to [5]make use of advantages and avoid disadvantages.[2]Second, we should[6]set a clear aim of a struggle.The aim can give us motivation, and make us become active.[2]Third, [7]attending collective activities is an effective way to relieve pressure.[2]Finally, if you find pressure is nearly [8]beyond your control, you’d better turn to professional psychological guidance.From :.[2]As to me, my pressure is mainly from future employment.[4]In order to reduceit, I asked my parents help me analyse my advantages and disadvantages, and produce a more practical job objection.[2]So my employment pressure was relieved greatly.Now I become confident in my future, and I [9]do believe I can get an ideal job after my graduation.EX 5Competition is inevitable;it’s human petition builds character;it strengthens our petition is regarded as an open and fair race where success goes to the swiftest people regardless of their social petition is required to help us reach our fullest potential.(Natural selection and survival of the fittest.)Cooperation offers us a break from the pressure and stress of competition.A win-win approach tends to fosters exploration of the root causes of the conflict and leads to constructive, sustainable solutions with positive expectation for future encounters.Cooperative groups display more coordinated efforts, more division of labor, more acceptance of other ideas, and fewer communication difficulties than competitive groups.Two heads are better than one.Cooperation is marvelously successful at helping children to communicate effectively, to trust in others and to accept those who are different from themselves4.面临新的机遇和挑战 be faced with new opportunities and challenges5.人们普遍认为It is commonly believed/ recognized that…6.社会发展的必然结果the inevitable result of social

(仅供参考)第一课1.For English is a killer. It is English that has killed off Cumbric, Cornish, Norn and Manx. There are still parts of these islands where sizeable communities speak languages that were there before English. Y et English is everywhere in everyday use and understood by all or virtually(actually) all, constituting such a threat to the three remaining Celtic languages, Irish, Scottish Gaelic, and W elsh... that their long-term future must be considered... very greatly at risk.1. 因为英语是个杀手。

正是英语造成了凯尔特语、康沃尔语、诺恩语和马恩语等语言的消亡。

这些岛上的分地区依然还有很多社区的人使用在英语到来之前就已存在的语言。

然而,英语在日常生活中无处不在。

所有的人或几乎所有的人都懂英语。

英语对仅存的三种凯尔特语——爱尔兰语、苏格兰盖尔语及威尔士语的威胁是如此之大,人们一定认为它们遥远的未来是岌岌可危的。

s2.He also associated such policies with a prejudice which he calls linguicism [a condition parallel to(equal to/ similar to) racism and sexism]. As Phillipson sees it, leading institutions and individuals within the predominantly "white" English-speaking world, have [by design(=deliberately) or default(=mistake)] encouraged or at least tolerated—and certainly have not opposed—the hegemonic spread of English, a spread which began some (about) three centuries ago as (when) economic and colonial expansion.2.同时,他认为这些政策和他称之为语言歧视(与种族歧视、性别歧视等类似)的偏见密切相关。

作文翻译Unit 1李明是学化学的,性格开朗幽默,颇有魅力,但英语成绩不佳,每次只能勉强及格。

老师警告他,英语不好会阻碍他拿奖学金,并亮出了自己的王牌:如果李明不努力,就让他考试不过关。

老师还告诉他,学习英语不能只为了文凭,否则他即使大学毕业,也还是个半文盲。

李明虽然保持镇定,但他明白,他的学业生涯正在攸关之际,必须安心下来埋头学习,坚持不懈。

Li Ming was a chemistry major, a charmer noted for his easygoing and humorous temperament. However, his English was so poor that he always barely got by. The teacher admonished him that his poor English would be an impediment to scholarship. What’s more, she showed her trump card: if Li Ming did not work hard. She would flunk him.He was also told that he should not learn English merely for the sake of his diploma, otherwise, even after graduation from university, he would still be semiliterate. Although Li Ming did not lose his composure, he was well aware that he had to settle down to work and follow through because his academic life was at stake.Unit 2我的朋友琳达接受过良好的教育,既美丽又端庄,三十好几依然没有人向她求婚。

研究生综合英语(翻译+答案)

研究生综合英语(翻译+答案)

Unit One An Image or a MirageV.TranslationA.从更大的范围上讲,选民们往往仅因为某个政客的外表整洁清秀而对他做出有利的反应。

他的对手则因为没有生就一副令人信任的外表而常常遭到否定的评价。

这种判断是错误的,其后果可能是灾难性的。

就算许多选民投一位候选人的票完全是出于政治原因,但本不该当选的人,如果他有整洁清秀的形象,就会使他在势均力敌的选举中占有优势。

我们常常根据一个人的表达能力而做出轻率的判断。

再回到政治这一话题上来,许多选民仅仅根据候选人公开演讲的方式就对他的能力做出判断。

然而,一个候选人可能非常善于演说,但并不一定能胜任他所竞选的职位。

我认识许多才能杰出的人物,他们只是没有培养自己在公开场合演讲的能力,但在与别人一对一的交流中却表现极为出色。

这种能充分表达自己见解的能力,固然十分重要,但我们对于那些让人感觉善于辞令的人,往往产生错误的印象,因为很多情况下这种优点仅仅只是“表面现象”。

不难想象,一位外表整洁清秀、讲话娓娓动听的政治家会轻而易举地战胜一位不事张扬但更为合格的对手。

他之所以取胜仅仅是因为他的形象令人信服。

B.If you want a winning image with others, your first concern must be a winning self-image. The individual who has a losing self-image will never be able to project a winning image to others. He may be able to fool some people for a while, but his poor self-image will eventually make it impossible for him to relate favorably to others. Throughout the ages, great philosophers have stated, “Y ou are what you think you are. ” It is imperative for you to have good image of yourself if you want to create the same impression in others.No matter who you are, everything worthwhile will depend on your own self-image. Your happiness will be based on it. You will live only one life, and in order to enjoy it, you must have a winning self-image. Since we can all choose how we want to think ourselves, we should try to have positive, winning thoughts. In your own attempt to build a winning image you must begin with the self — otherwise, theimage you strive for will be supported by nothing but a sand foundation.Any athlete will tell you that you must know you’ re a winnerin order to be one. To many, this kind of message will sound like double-talk, but it contains an essential truth. Although you can apply this same message to anything in life, I will use athletics as the basis for illustrating my thoughts about self-images because sports involve physical exertion by which desired results can be achieved.Unit Two Is Love An Art?V.TranslationA.学习艺术的过程可以很方便地分为两个部分:一是精通理论;二是善于实践。

Unit 1: Traits of The Key Players1.This is part of a pep talk intended to send headhunters into competitor’s companies to talk to the most experienced staff about making a change.这是一段充满了鼓动性的谈话,目的是把猎头们派往竞争对手的公司去游说经验丰富的员工们做一次职业变更。

2.We hold them up to the standards we see in our top people.我们把他们和公司顶级员工表现出的特质进行对照。

3.If it looks like they have these same traits, we’ll place a bet on them.假如他们看起来有同样特征的话,我们就在他们身上赌一把。

”只是这样有点儿冒险。

4.Your job as a future employee is to help the hiring manager mitigate that risk.作为未来的一名员工,你的工作是帮助人事部经理降低这种风险。

5.It deserves repeating because it is the single most public difference between academia and industry.它之所以值得被反复谈及,是因为这一特征是学术界和企业间最明显的差别。

6.The business environment is less lone-wolf and competitive, so signs of being collaborative and selfless stand out.企业的环境并不需要单打独斗,争强好胜,所以表现出合作和无私精神的员工就脱颖而出了7.Better still, develop a reputation inside your lab and with people your lab collaborates with as a person who fosters and initiates collaborations—and make sure this quality gets mentioned by those who will take those reference phone calls.更为有利的是,要在你实验室内部,以及在和你们实验室合作的人们之间,培养一个良好声誉:一个鼓励并发动合作的人—还要保证让那些会接听调查电话的人们谈及你的这个品质。

研究生(英语)课后部分翻译答案1. “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。

“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.”(第一章P29 第一段)2. 最后,职业地位包含对职业标准的遵守。

很多律师通过在行业内外把自己塑造成一个具有良好职业道德的典范来找到自我价值。

Read the passages and answer the questions that follow. For each question, choose the best answer from the four choices.Passage 1The Rise of the Gig EconomyIn recent years, the gig economy has been on the rise, transforming the way people work. With the rise of digital platforms like Uber, Airbnb, and TaskRabbit, more and more people are choosing to work as freelancers and independent contractors instead of traditional full-time employment.This shift in the labor market has both positive and negative effects.

Unit 2 Down and Out in Paris and London巴黎、伦敦落魄记You discover the extreme precariousness of your six francs a day. Mean disasters happen and rob you of food. You have spent your last eighty centimes on half a litre of milk, and are boiling it over the spirit lamp. While it boils a bug runs down your forearm; you give the bug a flick with your nail, and it falls, plop! straight into the milk. There is nothing for it but to throw the milk away and go foodless.你发现每天的六法郎根本没有保障。

一些意想不到的灾难就会掠夺你的一日三餐。

你花最后的八十生丁买了半升牛奶,然后在酒精灯上把它煮沸。

煮牛奶时,一只臭虫跳到你的前臂上;你用指甲弹开臭虫,扑通一声,它掉进了牛奶。

你无可奈何,只好把牛奶倒了,这样又得继续饿着肚子。

You go to the baker’s to buy a pound of bread, and you wait while the girl cuts a pound for another customer. She is clumsy, and cuts more than a pound. “Pardon, monsieur,” she says, “I suppose you don’t mind paying two sous extra?” Bread is a franc a pound, and you have exactly a franc. When you think that you might be asked to pay two sous extra, and would have to confess that you could not, you bolt in panic. It is hours before you dare venture into a baker’s shop again.你去面包房买了一磅面包,面包房里的姑娘为另外一个顾客切面包时,你在一旁等着。

Rights of reproduction, distribution, and display. The author of a work possesses, at the beginning, a bundle of rights that collectively make up copyright. They belong originally to the author, who can sell, rent, give away, will, or transfer them in some other way, individually or as a package, to whomever the author wishes. When a work is to be published, the author normally transfers some or all of these rights to the publisher, by formal agreement. Two of these rights are basic from the publisher's point of view: the right to make copies of the work(traditionally by printing and now often by digital reproduction)and the right to distribute such copies to the public—in sum, to publish the work. In the case of online publishing, reproduction and distribution blend into the act of transmitting the work on demand to the reader's computer. A third right—the right of public display—applies to online exploitation of works. A work is publicly displayed when made viewable online; if the user downloads or prints out the material concerned, a distribution of a copy also occurs.2. Derivative work and performance rights. A fourth and very important right is the right to make what the law terms derivative works—that is, works based on or derived from the original work, such as translations, abridgments, dramatizations, or other adaptations.A revised edition of a published work is generally noticeably different enough from the prior edition to qualify as a derivative work with a separate copyright. The fifth basic copyright right, the right of public performance, has only limited relevance for literary works as such; it applies, for example, when a poet gives a public reading of a poem. However, it has great significance for other works, such as motion pictures, that may spring from literary works.汉译英17 40年前,联合国在这里召开了首次人类环境会议,发表了具有划时代意义的历史性文献《人类环境宣言》,形成了人类环境行动计划,提出了一个响遍世界的口号:只有一个地球!那次会议标志着人类对环境问题的普遍觉醒,开启了可持续发展的新纪元。

Unit 1Science is a kind of knowledge which is a very useful tool in solving the technical problems of industry, agriculture, warfare, and medicine. To understand the width and depth to which science can be applied to the material and spiritual problems that confront individuals and nations requires an understanding of what science really is.The word science comes to us from a Latin word, scire, which means “to know”. Then, in a broad sense, science is simply what we know, the total of all human knowledge. But the definition of science as all human knowledge would not be a workable one, for it is obvious that there are different types of knowledge. The kinds differ according to how the knowledge was obtained, and also according to what frame of experience it fits. What we know of the arts, literature, law, religion, and technical know-how, are more or less separate funds of knowledge. They have little to do with what we commonly call science.Science is also called natural science to distinguish it from other branches of learning. Science is concerned with nature, that is, with knowledge of the characteristics and operations of any and all natural things and happenings. Science embraces all of nature, and expresses our best ideas of how natural phenomena are related to each other and are to be formed into what is called the universe.Science has many characteristics, and to understand what science is requires a detailed examination of these properties and peculiarities. A number of writers have asserted that science is really only a method—the scientific method. Such a definition is an over simplification, but it is certain that the scientific method plays a very important role in determining the nature of scientific knowledge.My bag is like a ball.What is your bag like?Unit 3Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim is hardly believable. It is almost impossible not to read advertisements these days. Just think what fun they often provide! Imagine what a bus and railway station would be like without advertisements? Would you enjoy gazin g helplessly at a blank wall while waiting for a bus or train? Would you like to read a daily paper closely-printed with columns of news?A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or newspaper. We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, radio or television stations could not subsist without this source of revenue .The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many programs on air is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn't forget is the "small ads” which are in virtually every newspaper. What a tremendously useful service they perform for thecommunity! Just about everything can be accomplished through these columns, for instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death. It’s the advertisement amon g the advertisements.Unit 4Few great names in music spell as much magic to the average concert-goers as that of Tschaikovsky. In almost every musical form will be found a work of his ranking high in popularity. And quite deservedly so. Tschaikovsky's music is filled with a warm humanity and stirring drama. The themes and feelings are easy to grasp. The personal, intimate note is so strong in this music that we find it natural, while listening to the Pathetic Symphony or the Nutcracker Ballet Suite, for example, to share Tschaikovsky's joys and sorrows. His music seems to take us into his confidence and show us the secret places of his heart. Although Tschaikovsky's range of moods is wide----from the whimsical play of light fantasy to stormy outcries of anguish ---- essentially he was a melancholy man, in his music as in his life. Perhaps it is the genuineness of his music in conveying strong emotions and suffering that has draw n millions to his symphonies and concertos. A frank sincerity and warm-heartedness flow from his music. The best of his melodies linger hauntingly, in the mind and heart. As long as sincere feeling expressed in sincere artistic form can move the hearts of men, Tschaikovsky's music will continue to hold a high place in the concert hall and opera house.Only Beethoven and Mozart can rival Tschaikovsky in the number of compositions in various musical forms that stands out as repertory favorites. Tschaikovsky's violin concerto is as much a“request”item as Beethoven’s.The Pathetic Symphony ranks with the three or four enduring favorites of the repertory.Tschaikovsky's Nutcracker ballet is probably the most popular suite of its kind in music.Unit 5For anthropologists, culture includes much more than refinement, taste, sophistication, education, and appreciation of the fine arts. Not only college graduates but all people are cultured. The most interesting and significant forces are those which affect people every day of their lives, particularly those which influence children during enculturation.Culture, as defined anthropologically, encompasses features that are sometimes regarded as trivial or unworthy of serious study, such as "popular " culture. To understand contemporary American culture, we must consider television, fast-food restaurants, sports, and games. As a cultural manifestation, a rock star may be as interesting as a symphony conductor, a comic book as significant as a book-award winner.All human populations have culture, which is therefore a generalized possession of the genus homo. This is Culture (capital C) in the general sense, a capacity and possession shared by hominids. However, anthropologists also should use the word culture to describe the different and varied cultural traditions of specific societies. This is culture in the specific sense (small c).Humanity shares a capacity for culture, but people live in particular cultures, where they are enculturated along different lines. All people grow up in the presence of a particular set of cultural rules transmitted over the generations. These are the specific cultures or cultural traditions that anthropologists study. Unit 7We live in a materialistic society and are nurtured from our earliest years to be acquisitive. Our possessions --"mine" and "yours" -- are clearly labeled from earlychildhood. When we grow old enough to earn a living, it does not surprise us to discover that success is measured in terms of the money you earn. However, it is not only in affluent societies that people are obsessed with the idea of making more money. Consumer goods are desirable everywhere and modern industry deliberately sets out to create new markets.Gone are the days when industrial goods were made to last forever. The wheels of the industry must be kept turning. Built-in obsolescence provides the means: goods are made to be discarded. -You no sooner acquire this year's model than you are thinking about its replacement.This materialistic outlook has seriously influenced education. Fewer and fewer young people these days acquire knowledge only for its own sake. Every course of studies must lead somewhere, for example, to a bigger wage packet. The demand for hi-tech personnel far exceeds the supply and big companies compete with each other to recruit students before they have completed their studies. Tempting salaries and "fringe benefits" are offered to them. Recruiting tactics of this kind have led to the "brain drain", the phenomena in which highly skilled people offer their service to the highest bidder. The wealthier nations deprive their poorer neighbors of their most able citizens. While Mammon is worshipped as never before, the rich get richer and the poor, poorer.Unit 11We all associate colors with feeling and attitudes. In politics dark blue often means "tradition" and red means "social change". But blue can also mean sadness, and white is often for purity, although in China white is worn for funerals, and red is used to express the joy of a wedding. In western Europe white is worn at weddings and black for funerals. Advertisers are aware of the importance of selecting colors and often do that according to the way people react to them. Soap powders come in white and light blue packets (clean and pure, like ice); cereals often come in brown packets (like wheat fields), but cosmetics never come in brown jars (dirty).Where do these ideas come from? Max Luscher from the University of Geneva believes that in the beginning life was dictated by two factors beyond our control: night and day. Night brought passivity, and a general slowing down of metabolism; day brought with it the possibility of action, and increase in the metabolic rate, thus providing us with energy and initiative. Dark blue, therefore, is the color of quiet and passivity, bright yellow the color of hope and activity. In prehistoric times, activity as a rule took one of two forms: either we were huntingand attacking, or we were being hunted and defending ourselves against attack. Attack is universally represented by the color red; self-preservation by its complement green.Unit 13It is all very well for the political theorists in their armchair to argue that an individual must struggle for what he or she believes in. but who is actually going to suffer most in the struggle? It is rarely the theorists themselves. Such an important factor as this cannot be ignored in the argument.In the current world it has perhaps become increasingly futile to use force to settle a dispute, although there have been continuous international conflicts since World War II. On the other hand, it is as apparent today as it ever was that any individual or group of people with ideas or notions which they advocate enthusiastically may defend them, even to the point where armed force is applied.In those states which have a long-established tradition of settling dispute by constitutional or legal means, the individual has no need to resort to aggression to defend his or her beliefs, or to convince others of their validity. The battles can be fought in courtrooms, unbearable as the delays might often be. In general, in all states where there is human justice, any individual with a fundamental grievance against another individual, an institution, a law, or even the state itself, has a fair chance of put ting it right, if he or she has patience and a deep enough belief.If, however, we interpret the expression “one must fight for what one believes in” to mean “using armed force”, or “taking the law into one’s hands”, irrespective of circumstances, then there is evidently more damage than gain in conflicts which require the use of the increasingly lethal weaponry of our times.In many cases the grievances of the ordinary individual, or groups of people, may be exploited for the political, religious, economic, or imperialistic aims of a manipulating power group. In various so-called “popular movements”, ordinary, peace-loving people may be encouraged by a political dictator or by unscrupulous agitators to take part in lawless acts. In this case, ordinary people who were encouraged to overthrow what they were persuaded to believe was an oppressive regime will not necessarily enjoy more civil liberties under a new extremist rule. Thus the struggle was futile.Unit 14"We live in a day," said professor Whitehead, "when civilization is shifting its basic outlook; a major turning point in history where the pre-suppositions on which society is structured are being analyzed, sharply challenged, and profoundly changed."However, too many people fail to remain awake through great periods of social change. So our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change. We must work passionately and indefatigably to bridge the gulf between our scientific progress and our moral progress. One of the great problems of mankind is that we sufferfrom a poverty of the spirit which stands in glaring contrast to our scientific and technological abundance.The richer we have become materially, the poorer we have become morally and spiritually. Every man lives in two realms, the internal and the external. The internal is that realm of spiritual ends expressed in art, literature, morals and religion. The external is that complex of devices, techniques, mechanisms and instrumentalities by means of which we live. Our problem today is that we allowed the internal to become lost in the external. We have allowed the means by which we live to outdistance the ends for which we live. This is the serious predicament, the deep and haunting problem, confronting modern man.IV. TranslationSocial morality is illusive and difficult to define. According to the theory of the proponents of moral relativism, right and wrong, good and bad, justice and injustice are relative values which are not subject to objective or consistent definition, They assert that moral values are determined by the society or culture within which the individual is socialized, and that the prevailing social norms will determine what a person believes and how he behaves toward his fellowman.Social morality depends upon man's capacity to give and to receive love, to be kind and to be empathic. Kindness may be viewed as the generalized expression off love, concern and sensitivity in interpersonal relations. A kind person seeks to be helpful. Empathy is the ability to feel into and to identify with the needs of another human being. An empathic person shares another's concerns, joys, anguish, despair, frustrations, hopes and aspirations as if they are his own. Empathy, unlike love, is not concrete and primary but rather requires the capacity for abstract thought. Empathy is not possible for an egocentric or animalistic human organism. Without empathy, social morality, social responsibility, justice, and human society itself would not be possible. A person should value critical and independent thought above subjection to authority; value individuality and creativity above conformity and packaged opinions; value evidence of concern, commitment and social sensitivity above personal acceptance and mere social success.。

Unit 17:<Clearing customs>了解传统I‟m the overseas representative for a firm which manufactures cosmetics and perfumes. I‟m going to France and Spain to see if I can introduce my company‟s products into these markets. Do you have any advice for businessmen and women visiting these countries?我是一家化妆品和香水公司的海外代表。

我要去法国和西班牙,看看我是否能把我公司的产品引入这些市场。

你对商人和妇女访问这些国家有什么建议呢?My husband‟s firm has suggested that I accompany him on a tour of Korea, China and Japan next autumn. I‟m told that wives are not usually invited to take part in the many social activities which a business trip like this usually involves. Is this true? I don‟t want to spend my time sitting in a hotel room. And if I do go, what advice do you have about protocol for both me and my husband.我丈夫的公司已经建议我陪他于明年秋季去韩国,中国和日本旅行。

我被告知,类似这样的商务旅行所包含的种种社交活动一般是不邀请家眷的。

这是真的吗?我不想整日都坐在酒店房间。

但是如果我去了,你有什么对我和我丈夫在礼节上的建议。

I‟ve heard that the formalities involved in business dealings in the Middle East are rather complex. Can you give me any tips as I‟m off to the Gulf States on a business trip next month?我听说在中东地区商务交往礼节相当复杂。

我下个月要去海湾国家进行商务旅行,你可以给我一些建议吗?Gestures aren‟t the only area in which the unwary traveler can get tripped up. Foreign cultures adhere to different business customs and protocol. For example: 粗心的旅客会触犯文化禁忌,并且不止是在手势上。

外国文化遵循不同的商业习惯和礼节。

例如:●Caffeine junkies should restrain themselves in the Middle East. “three cups of teaor coffee is usually the polite limit in offices and during social calls.” counsels …Travel Pak,‟ a free publication of Alia, the Royal Jordanian Airline. “But if your host keeps going, you also may continue sipping. If you‟ve had your fill, give your empty cup a quick twist---a sort of wiggle---as you hand it back. That means, ‟No more, thank you.‟”咖啡因成瘾者在中东地区要约束自己。

“三杯茶或咖啡通常是在办公室和社交拜访活动时的有礼貌的限度,”这是约旦皇家航空公司阿里雅的一本免费刊物《巴基斯坦之行》的建议。

“但是如果主人仍然在喝,你可以继续小口喝一会。

如果你己喝好,请在你归还杯子时,将空杯迅速转动一下。

”这意味着,“我不要了,谢谢你。

”●Middle East visitors also should not be surprised “ if others barge right into theoffice in the middle of your conversation with the person you are seeing,” notes “Travel Pak.” An old Arab custom calls for keeping an “open office.”《巴基斯坦之行》提醒到:旅客在中东也应不会奇怪“如果你正与他人会晤磋商时,突然有人闯入办公室”。

一条阿拉伯传统习俗要求人们“开门办公”。

●The British, however, consider it impolite to interrupt a visitor, even after allbusiness has been transacted. The commercial caller is expected to be sensitive to this point, know when to stop, and initiate his or her own departure.但是,英国人认为,即使在所有业务交易完后,打搅客人也是不礼貌的。

商务到访者被期望能谨慎对待这一点,明白什么时候停止,并开始他或她的离程。

●Spanish businesspeople “connect” with tangibles, advises Karen Weiner Escalera,president of a New York City public-relations company.
