Section A Spend or save –The student’s dilemma花钱还是存钱,学生进退维谷1 你是不是跟我一样对“我应该花钱还是存钱”这个问题感到困惑,且有被操纵的感觉?我觉得我们从生活的环境里所获得的信息似乎是有违常识、互相矛盾的。

政府告诉我们要花钱,否则我们将永远走不出衰退;与此同时,他们又告诉我们,除非我们节省更多的钱,否则我们的国家会处于严重危险之中。

银行提供较高的利率以增加储蓄。

然后,同样是这些银行又提供信用卡让我们可以花更多的钱。

2 这里还有一个大家熟悉的例子:如果我们不按时支付信用卡账单,我们会收到从信用卡公司发来的类似这样的令人讨厌的催缴账单的电子邮件:不还款是不可接受的。

请立即缴付,否则后果自负!之后,一旦还款,我们就会收到一封跟进的电子邮件,语气和蔼可亲,说我们是多么宝贵的客户,并鼓励我们继续花钱。

到底哪一个描述是正确的?有麻烦的失败消费者还是宝贵的客户?这两者之间可是天壤之别!3 自相矛盾的情况还有,我们每天都收到彼此相左的两种信息。

一种从“纵容”的角度,让我们“买东西,花钱,现在就得到它。

你需要这个!”另外一种,我们可称之为“正直”的信息,它力劝我们:“努力工作,把钱存起来。

控制你的欲望,不要买奢侈品,不要垂涎那些你并不真正需要的东西。

”这类信息来源甚多,有学校方面的,有家长方面的,甚至还来自提及传统价值观的政治人物。

艰苦创业、忠于家庭、能推迟欲望是美国价值观的核心,它使我们的国家变得强大。

4 但相反的信息,即那些纵容人们不断花钱的广告,无所不在。

虽然此类信息有时经过了乔装打扮,但仍随处可见,电视、电影、印刷媒介和路牌、商店,及公共汽车、火车和地铁上,比比皆是。

广告侵入了我们的日常生活。

我们时时被包围在花钱,花钱,花钱的信息中。

最近有人说:“唯一可以逃脱广告的时候是当在床上睡着时!”5 据计算,普通的美国人到18岁时,会看过60万则广告;到40岁时,看过的广告总数近百万。

第一单元注重时间的美国人美国人认为没有人能停止不前。

如果你不求进取,你就会落伍。

这种态度造就了一个投身于研究、实验和探索的民族。

时间是美国人注意节约的两个要素之一,另一要素是劳力。

人们一直说:“只有时间才能支配我们。

”人们似乎把时间当作一个差不多是实实在在的东西来对待。

我们安排时间、节约时间、浪费时间、挤抢时间、消磨时间、缩减时间、对时间的利用作出解释;我们还要因付出时间而收取费用。

时间是一种宝贵的资源,许多人都深感人生的短暂。

时光一去不复返。

我们应当让每一分钟都过得有意义。

外国人对美国的第一印象很可能是:每个人都匆匆忙忙──常常处于压力之下。

城里人看上去总是在匆匆地赶往他们要去的地方,在商店里他们焦躁不安地指望店员能马上来为他们服务,或者为了赶快买完东西,用肘来推搡他人。

白天吃饭时人们也都匆匆忙忙,这部分地反映出这个国家的生活节奏。

人们认为工作时间是宝贵的。

在公共用餐场所,人们都等着别人尽快吃完,以便他们也能及时用餐,你还会发现司机开车很鲁莽,人们推搡着在你身边过去。

你会怀念微笑、简短的交谈以及与陌生人的随意闲聊。

不要觉得这是针对你个人的,这是因为人们都非常珍惜时间,而且也不喜欢他人“浪费”时间到不恰当的地步。

许多刚到美国的人会怀念诸如商务拜访等场合开始时的寒暄。

他们也会怀念那种一边喝茶或喝咖啡一边进行的礼节性交流,这也许是他们自己国家的一种习俗。

他们也许还会怀念在饭店或咖啡馆里谈生意时的那种轻松悠闲的交谈。

一般说来,美国人是不会在如此轻松的环境里通过长时间的闲聊来评价他们的客人的,更不用说会在增进相互间信任的过程中带他们出去吃饭,或带他们去打高尔夫球。

既然我们通常是通过工作而不是社交来评估和了解他人,我们就开门见山地谈正事。

因此,时间老是在我们心中滴滴答答地响着。

因此,我们千方百计地节约时间。

我们发明了一系列节省劳力的装置;我们通过发传真、打电话或发电子邮件与他人迅速地进行交流,而不是通过直接接触。

新视野大学英语第二版第二册课文翻译 Unit 5-Section A

Unit 5Section AWeeping for My Smoking DaughterMy daughter smokes. While she is doing her homework, her feet on the bench in front of her and her calculator clicking out answers to her geometry problems, I am looking at the half-empty package of Camels tossed carelessly close at hand. I pick them up, take them into the kitchen, where the light is better, and study them — they're filtered, for which I am grateful. My heart feels terrible. I want to weep. In fact, I do weep a little, standing there by the stove holding one of the instruments, so white, so precisely rolled, that could cause my daughter's death. When she smoked Marlboros and Players I hardened myself against feeling so bad; nobody I knew ever smoked these brands.She doesn't know this, but it was Camels that my father, her grandfather, smoked. But before he smoked cigarettes made by manufacturers —when he was very young and very poor, with glowing eyes — he smoked Prince Albert tobacco in cigarettes he rolled himself. I remember the bright-red tobacco tin, with a picture of Queen Victoria's partner, Prince Albert, dressed in a black dress coat and carrying a cane.By the late forties and early fifties no one rolled his own anymore (and few women smoked) in my hometown of Eatonton, Georgia. The tobacco industry, coupled with Hollywood movies in which both male and female heroes smoked like chimneys, completely won over people like my father, who were hopelessly hooked by cigarettes. He never looked as fashionable as Prince Albert, though; he continued to look like a poor, overweight, hard working colored man with too large a family, black, with a very white cigarette stuck in his mouth.I do not remember when he started to cough. Perhaps it was unnoticeable at first, a little coughing in the morning as he lit his first cigarette upon getting out of bed. By the time I was sixteen, my daughter's age, his breath was a wheeze, embarrassing to hear; he could not climb stairs without resting every third or fourth step. It was not unusual for him to cough for an hour.My father died from "the poor man's friend", pneumonia, one hard winter when his lung illnesses had left him low. I doubt he had much lung left at all, after coughing for so many years. He had so little breath that, during his last years, he was always leaning on something. I remembered once, at a family reunion, when my daughter was two, that my father picked her up for a minute — long enough for me to photograph them — but the effort was obvious. Near the very end of his life, and largely because he had no more lungs, he quit smoking. He gained a couple of pounds, but by then he was so slim that no one noticed.When I travel to Third World countries I see many people like my father and daughter. There are large advertisement signs directed at them both: the tough, confident or fashionable older man, the beautiful, "worldly" young woman, both dragging away. In these poor countries, as in American inner cities and on reservations, money that should be spent for food goes instead to the tobacco companies; over time, people starve themselves of both food and air, effectively weakening and hooking their children, eventually killing themselves. I read in the newspaper and in my gardening magazine that the ends of cigarettes are so poisonous that if a baby swallows one, it is likely to die, and that the boiled water from a bunch of them makes an effective insecticide.There is a deep hurt that I feel as a mother. Some days it is a feeling of uselessness. I remember how carefully I ate when I was pregnant, how patiently I taught my daughter how to cross a street safely. For what, I sometimes wonder; so that she can struggle to breathe through most of her life feeling half her strength, and then die of self-poisoning, as her grandfather did?There is a quotation from a battered women's shelter that I especially like: "Peace on earth begins at home." I believe everything does. I think of a quotation for people trying to stop smoking: "Every home is a no smoking zone." Smoking is a form of self-battering that also batters those who must sit by, occasionally joke or complain, and helplessly watch. I realize now that as a child I sat by, through the years, and literally watched my father kill himself: surely one such victory in my family, for the prosperous leaders who own the tobacco companies, is enough.Words: 772。

她做作业时,脚搁在前面的长凳上,计算器嗒嗒地跳出几何题的答案。

我看着那包已抽了一半、她随意扔在手边的“骆驼”牌香烟。

我拿起香烟,走到厨房里去仔细察看,那里的光线好一点──谢天谢地,香烟是有过滤嘴的。

我心里十分难过。

我想哭。

事实上,我确实哭过。

我站在炉子旁边,手里捏着一支雪白的香烟,制作得非常精致,但那可是会致我女儿于死地的东西啊。

当她抽“万宝路”及“普雷厄尔”牌香烟时,我硬起心肠,不让自己感到难过。

我认识的人当中没有人抽这两种牌子的香烟。

她不知道我父亲、也就是她外公生前抽的就是“骆驼”牌香烟。

但是在他开始抽机制卷烟之前──那时他很年轻、也很穷,眼睛炯炯有神──他抽的是用“阿尔伯特亲王牌”烟丝自己手工卷的香烟。

我还记得那鲜红的烟丝盒,上面有一张维多利亚女王丈夫阿尔伯特亲王的照片,他身穿黑色燕尾服,手里拿着一支手杖。

到40年代末、50年代初,我的家乡佐治亚州的伊腾顿已没有人再自己手工卷烟了(而且几乎没有女人抽烟)。

烟草业,再加上好莱坞电影──影片中的男女主角都是烟鬼──把像我父亲这样的人完完全全争取了过去,他们无可救药地抽烟抽上了瘾。

然而我父亲从来就没有像阿尔伯特亲王那样时髦过。

他还是一个贫穷、过于肥胖、为养活一大家人而拼命干活的男人。

他是黑人,嘴里却总叼着一支雪白的香烟。

我记不清父亲是什么时候开始咳嗽的。

也许开始时并不明显,只是早晨一下床点燃第一支香烟时才有点微咳。

到我16岁,也就是我女儿现在这般年纪时,他一呼吸就呼哧呼哧的,让人感到不安;他上楼时每走三、四级楼梯就得停下来休息一会儿,而且,他常常一连咳上一个小时。

肺部的病痛把我父亲折磨得虚弱不堪,一个严冬,他死于被称为“穷人之友” 的疾病──肺炎。

新视野三版读写2U5翻译讲解Part1The Age of Discovery,also called the Age of Exploration,is a historical period of European global exploration that started in the early15th century and continued until the18th century.大发现年代,也被称为大勘探年代,是欧洲进行全球勘查的一个历史时期,始于15世纪初并一直持续到18世纪。

It is usually regarded as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern era, in the context of emerging western imperialism and economic competition between European kingdoms seeking wealth through the establishment of trade routes and colonies.这一时期通常被认为是中世纪和近代之间的桥梁,当时西方帝国主义刚兴起,欧洲各王国之间正在经济上互相竞争,他们想通过建立贸易路线和殖民地来寻找财富。

Among many great explorers during this period,the most outstanding one was Christopher Columbus since he discovered the New World.在这一时期众多伟大的探险家中,最杰出的是克里斯托弗•哥伦布,因为他发现了新大陆。

European overseas expansion led to the rise of colonial empires,with the contact between the Old and New Worlds producing the exchange:a wide transfer of plants,animals,foods,culture,and so forth.欧洲的海外扩张导致了殖民帝国的崛起,旧大陆与新大陆的接触也促成了两边的互相交换:大量的植物、动物、食物、文化等得到迁移。

Unit FiveSection A 优雅的双手我从未见过克拉克夫人,但看过她的医疗记录和上一位值班医生交给我的报告后,我知道她今晚会去世。

她屋里唯一的光线来自一台医疗设备,它闪着红光,似乎在发出警告。

我站在那里,一股怪味刺激着我的鼻子,我想起了过去闻到过的腐烂的气味,我闭上了眼睛。

我嘴里有一股从胃里返上来的酸味。

我伸手去开灯。

灯静静地照亮了整个病房,我走回病床边,用无动于衷的、医生的目光观察着病人。

克拉克夫人已奄奄一息了。

她一动不动地躺着:骨瘦如柴的身体使她的头显得特别大;皮肤呈暗黄色,松松地裹在嶙峋的、连毛毯也遮掩不住的骨骼上;她的右臂平伸在床边,被无情地用胶带固定在一块板上,以便能固定针头使液体滴入;左臂横放在深陷的胸部,胸口随着不均匀的呼吸一起一伏。

我伸手去触摸她放在胸口的细长手指。

冰凉冰凉的。

我忙将手移到她的手腕,去感觉那微弱的脉搏。

克拉克夫人将头稍稍转向我,微微地睁开眼。

我俯过身去,勉强听见她微弱的声音:“水。

”我从桌上拿起一杯水,用手指封着吸管的一端,滴了几滴凉凉的水到她的嘴里,以缓解她的干渴。

她没有用力去吞咽,因为力气不够。

“还要,”那干涩的声音说。

于是我们又重复了一次。

这次她终于咽了一些,并轻轻说了声:“谢谢,你。

”她虚弱得没法交谈,因此没等她要求,我就开始做她所需要的。

我像抱孩子似的把她抱起来,给她翻了个身。

除了一件浅色的病号服,她什么也没穿。

她又小又轻,像遭受了严重饥荒一样。

我打开护肤霜的瓶盖,揩了一些在手心。

为了不伤着她,我小心翼翼地把护肤霜擦在她发黄的皮肤上。

她的皮肤松松地在骨头上滑动,背上每块骨头的轮廓都能清楚地摸到。

当我把枕头放在她两腿之间时,发现它们也是冰凉的,直到把手移到她膝盖以上的部位,我才感受到血液供给生命的热度。

而后,我挪了把椅子面朝她坐在床边,握住她那只没被固定的手,此时我又一次注意到她细长的手指。

很优雅。

一时间,我突然想知道她是否有家庭,接着我发现病房里没有花,没有孩子们画的彩虹和蝴蝶,也没有卡片。

I think that the messages we get from our environment seem to defy common sense and contradict each other. The government tells us to spend or we'll never get out of the recession. At the same time, they tell us that unless we save more, our country is in grave danger. Banks offer higher interest rates so we increase savings. Then the same banks send us credit card offers so we can spend more.你是不是跟我一样对“我应该花钱还是存钱”这个问题感到困惑,且有被操纵的感觉?我觉得我们从生活的环境里所获得的信息似乎是有违常识、互相矛盾的。

政府告诉我们要花钱,否则我们将永远走不出衰退;与此同时,他们又告诉我们,除非我们节省更多的钱,否则我们的国家会处于严重危险之中。

银行提供较高的利率以增加储蓄。

然后,同样是这些银行又提供信用卡让我们可以花更多的钱。

2 Here's another familiar example: If we don't pay our credit card bill on time, we get demanding, nasty emails from the credit card company saying something like: "Your failure to pay is unacceptable. Pay immediately or you'll be in trouble!" Then, as soon as we pay, we get a follow-up email in a charming tone telling us how valuable a customer we are and encouraging us to resume spending. Which depiction is correct: a failing consumer in trouble or a valued customer? The gap between these two messages is enormous.这里还有一个大家熟悉的例子:如果我们不按时支付信用卡账单,我们会收到从信用卡公司发来的类似这样的令人讨厌的催缴账单的电子邮件:不还款是不可接受的。

Unit 5Section BStop Spoiling Your ChildrenWhile traveling for various speaking appointments, I frequently stay overnight in the home of a family and am assigned to one of the children's bedrooms. In it, I often find so many toys that there's almost no room—even for my small lavatory or toilet kit. And the closet is usually so tightly packed with clothes that I can barely squeeze in my jacket.I'm not complaining, only making a point. I think the tendency to give children too many toys and clothes is quite common in American families. I think in far too many families not only do children come to take their parents' generosity for granted, but also the effects of this can actually be somewhat harmful to children.Why do parents give their children too much, or give them things they can't afford? I believe there are several reasons.One fairly common reason is that parents spoil their children out of a sense of guilt. Parents who both hold down full-time jobs may feel guilty about the amount of time they spend away from their children and, as accommodation for being away so much, may attempt to compensate by showering them with material possessions.Other parents provide too much because they want their children to have everything they had while growing up, along with those things they pined for but didn't get. Still others are afraid to say no to their children's endless requests for toys for fear that their children will infer they are unloved or will be made fun of if they don't obtain the same toys as their friends have.Spoiling a child also happens when parents are unable to stand up to their children's unreasonable demands. Such parents fluctuate between saying no and giving in—but neither response seems satisfactory to them. If they refuse a request, they immediately feel a wave of regret for having been so strict or ungenerous. If they give in, they feel regret and resentment over having been too easy. This kind of variability not only loosens the parents' ability to set limits, it also sours the parent-child relationship to some degree, robbing parents and their children of some of the happiness and mutual respect that is present in healthy families.But spoiling children with material things does little to reduce parental guilt (since parents never feel they've given enough), nor does it make children feel more loved (for what children really desire is parents' time and attention). Instead, the effects of providing too much can be harmful. Children may, to some degree, become greedy, selfish, ungrateful and insensitive to the needs and feelings of others, beginning with their parents. When children are given too much, it undermines their respect for their parents. In fact, the children begin to sense that a parent's unlimited generosity is not right. The contradiction as a result may be that these children, conversely, will push further, unconsciously hoping that, if they push too hard, they will force their parents into setting limitations.Also, spoiled children are not as challenged to be more creative in their play as children with fewer toys. They have fewer opportunities to learn the value of money, and have less experience in learning to deal with delay in satisfaction, when every requested object is given on demand.The real purpose of this discussion is not to tell parents how much or how little to give to their children. Rather, my intention is to help those parents who have already sensed that they might be spoiling their children but don't know how to stop.Sometimes you may feel uncertain about whether to give in to many of your children's requests. That doesn't mean you can't change. First, you should try to determine what makes you submit or feel guilty. Then, even if you haven't uncovered the reason, you should begin to make firm decisions and practice responding to your children's requests in a prompt, definite manner.Once you turn over a new leaf, you can't expect to change completely right away. You are bound to fluctuate at times. The key is to be satisfied with gradual improvement, expecting and accepting the occasional slips that come with any change. And even after you are handling these decisions in a firmer and more confident manner, you can't expect your children to respond immediately. For a while they'll keep on applying the old pressures that used to work so well. But they'll eventually come to respect your decisions once they learn that nagging and arguing no longer work. In the end, both you and your children will be happier for it.(Words: 773)。

第五单元
我女儿抽烟。

她做作业时,脚搁在前面的长凳上,计算器嗒嗒地跳出几何题的答案。

我看着那包已抽了一半、她随意扔在手边的“骆驼”牌香烟。

我拿起香烟,走到厨房里去仔细察看,那里的光线好一点──谢天谢地,香烟是有过滤嘴的。

我心里十分难过。

我想哭。

事实上,我确实哭过。

我站在炉子旁边,手里捏着一支雪白的香烟,制作得非常精致,但那可是会致我女儿于死地的东西啊。

当她抽“万宝路”及“普雷厄尔”牌香烟时,我硬起心肠,不让自己感到难过。

我认识的人当中没有人抽这两种牌子的香烟。

她不知道我父亲、也就是她外公生前抽的就是“骆驼”牌香烟。

但是在他开始抽机制卷烟之前──那时他很年轻、也很穷,眼睛炯炯有神──他抽的是用“阿尔伯特亲王牌”烟丝自己手工卷的香烟。

我还记得那鲜红的烟丝盒,上面有一张维多利亚女王丈夫阿尔伯特亲王的照片,他身穿黑色燕尾服,手里拿着一支手杖。

到40年代末、50年代初,我的家乡佐治亚州的伊腾顿已没有人再自己手工卷烟了(而且几乎没有女人抽烟)。

烟草业,再加上好莱坞电影──影片中的男女主角都是烟鬼──把像我父亲这样的人完完全全争取了过去,他们无可救药地抽烟抽上了瘾。

然而我父亲从来就没有像阿尔伯特亲王那样时髦过。

他还是一个贫穷、过于肥胖、为养活一大家人而拼命干活的男人。

他是黑人,嘴里却总叼着一支雪白的香烟。

我记不清父亲是什么时候开始咳嗽的。

也许开始时并不明显,只是早晨一下床点燃第一支香烟时才有点微咳。

到我16岁,也就是我女儿现在这般年纪时,他一呼吸就呼哧呼哧的,让人感到不安;他上楼时每走三、四级楼梯就得停下来休息一会儿,
而且,他常常一连咳上一个小时。

肺部的病痛把我父亲折磨得虚弱不堪,一个严冬,他死于被称为“穷人之友” 的疾病──肺炎。

他咳嗽了这么多年,我想他的肺部已没有什么完好的地方了。

去世前几年,他的呼吸已经很虚弱了,他总得倚靠着某个东西。

我记得有一次全家聚会,当时我女儿才两岁,他抱了她一会儿,好让我有时间给他俩拍张照片。

但是很明显,他是费了好大劲儿的。

生命行将结束前,他才戒了烟,主要是因为他的肺功能已极度受损。

戒烟后他的体重增加了几磅,但当时他太瘦了,所以没人注意到这一点。

我到第三世界国家去旅行时,看到了许多像我父亲和女儿那样的人。

到处都有针对他们这两类人的巨大广告牌:强壮、自信或时髦的成熟男人,以及漂亮、“世故”的年青女子,都在吞云吐雾。

就像在美国的旧城区和印第安人的居留地上一样,在这些贫困的国家里,那些本应该花在食物上的钱却流进了烟草公司。

久而久之,人们不但缺少食物,而且还缺少空气,这样不
但大大地损害了孩子们的体质,还使他们染上了烟瘾,最终还会致他们于死地。

我在报纸还有我订阅的园艺杂志上看到,烟蒂的毒性很强:一个婴儿如果吞下了一个烟蒂,就很有可能会死去,而沸水加一把烟蒂就成了很有效的杀虫剂。

作为母亲,我深深地感到痛苦。

有时我有一种无能为力的感觉。

我记得自己怀孕时,吃东西的时候是多么小心啊!之后在教她如何安全穿过马路时,又是多么耐心啊!
有时我纳闷:自己这样做到底是为了什么?难道是为了她今后大半辈子有气无力地挣扎着呼吸,然后再像她外公那样自己把自己毒死吗?
我特别喜欢一条写在受虐妇女收容所里的语录:“人间和平,始于家庭。


我认为世上所有的东西都是如此。

我还想起了另一条写给那些想戒烟的人们的语录:“每个家庭都应该是禁烟区。


抽烟是一种自我毁灭,而且也毁灭着那些不得不坐在你身边的人。

那些人偶尔也会取笑或抱怨你抽烟,可常常只能无可奈何地坐在一边看。

我现在意识到,从我还是个孩子起,这些年来我实际上是一直坐在旁边,看着我父亲自杀。

对那些生意兴隆的烟草公司的巨头们来说,能在我家取得这样一种胜利,肯定是够满意了。
