Unit 1Ghosts for Tea' Ten pence for a view over the bay' . said the old man with the telescope.'Lovely clear morning. Have a look at the old lighthouse and the remains of the great shipwreck of 1935.'Ten pence was sheer robbery, but the view was certainly magnificent.Cliffs stretched into the distance, sparkling waves whipped by the wind were unrolling on to the beach,and a few yachts,with creamy-white sails, were curving and dodging gracefully on the sea . Just below,a flock of seagulls were screaming at one another as they twisted and glided over the water. A mile out to sea, the old lighthouse stood on a stone platform on the rocks, which were being greedily licked by the waves. In no way indeed did I grudge my money. As I directed the telescope towards the lighthouse, the man beside me tapped my wrist.' Have you heard about the terrible tragedy that occurred there in that lighthouse?' he asked in a hushed whisper.'I imagine there may be plenty of legends attached to such a dramatic-looking place' , I suggested.'It's no legend' , declared the old man. 'My father knew the two men involved.lt all took place fifty years ago to-day. Let me tell you.His voice seemed to grow deeper and more dramatic.'For a whole week that lighthouse had been isolated by storms' , he began, 'with terrifying seas surging and crashing over the rocks. People on shore were anxious about the two men working there. They'd been on the best of terms until two or three weeks before, when they had quarrelled over cards in the village inn. Martin had accused Blake of cheating. Blake had vowed to avenge the insult to his honour. But thanks to the wise advice of a man they both respected, they apologised to each other, and soon seemed to have got over their disagreement. But some slight resentment and bitterness remained. and it was feared that the strain of continued isolation and rough weather might affect their nerves, though, needless to say, their friends had no idea how serious the consequences would be.'Fifty years ago to-night,no light appeared in the tower, and only at two o'clock in the morning did the beam suddenly start to flash out its warning again.'The next morning the light was still visible. The storm had almost blown itself out, so a relief boat set out to investigate. A grim discovery awaited the crew . The men's living-room was in a horrifying state. The table was over-turned: a pack of playing cards was scattered everywhere: bloodstains splashed the floor. The relief men climbed the winding stair to the lantern room and there discoveredMartin's body, crouched beside the burning lamp. He had been stabbed and was dead. Two days later, Blake's body was washed up. scratched, bruised, and terribly injured.' Only then could we really start guessing what had happened. This great tragedy could only have been due to a renewal of their quarrel. Bored and depressed as a result of their isolation, Martin and Blake must have started to play cards. Again suspecting cheating, Martin had accused his former friend of dishonesty; a fight had broken out and Blake had seized his knife. In a fit of madness he had attacked his companion, who had fallen mortally wounded. Then, appalled by what he had done, the loneliness, the battering of wind and waves, Blake had rushed to the parapet and flung himself on to the rocks below, where the sea had claimed him.'But Martin was still alive. Hours later, after darkness had fallen, he had recovered consciousness. He remembered his job of lighting the lamp; suffering intense pain, the poor wretch crawled slowly up the winding staircase, dragging himself from step to step till he got to the lantern. At his last ' gasp he managed to light this before finally collapsing.'For years afterwards it was said that the lighthouse was haunted, and, owing to these stories, they didn't have any applicants for the job of lighthouse-keeper from among the superstitious local inhabitants. And now they say that on every anniversary of that day, especially when the sea is rough, you can stand in the living-room, hear the cards failing and the sound of angry cries, see the flash of a blade,and then glimpse a figure rushing to the parapet. And then you hear the slow dragging of a body from step to step towards the room above.'The old man paused and I turned to go.'By the way' , he added, 'have you any free time this afternoon? If so, why don't you have teain the lighthouse? We are putting on a special boat trip to-day. We're charging a pound. And my brother, who bought the old lighthouse when they built the new one just on the point, can serve very good teas there - included in the price of the boat trip - a bargain, considering the problem of obtaining the food. And if you are at all sensitive to the supernatural, you're likely to have an unusual, perhaps an uncanny experience there.I eyed him appreciatively. 'You're wasting your talents' , I said. 'You should have been a fiction writer. ''You don't believe it? exclaimed the old man indignantly.'I'd find it a job,' I answered. ' My father, Henry Cox, started as keeper of that lighthouse fifty- two years ago, and he and Jim Dowley, now retired on a pension, were in charge for ten years. Come and see my dad one day with that tale; he'd enjoy it' .But the old man had already turned his attention to a more likely client.Google翻译：“10便士比湾景”。

如果谦逊的人能成为最好的领导者，为什么我们会爱上有魅力的自恋者?1.研究很清楚:当我们选择谦逊、不摆架子的人作为我们的领导者，我们周围的世界就会变得更好。
2.从长远来看，谦逊的领导者能提高公司的业绩，因为他们创造了更多的协作环境。
他们对自己的优点和缺点都有一个平衡的看法，并对他人的优点和贡献有强烈的欣赏，同时对新的想法和反馈持开放的态度。
这些“无名英雄”帮助他们的信任者们建立自尊，胜过他们的期望，并创建一个归属感，把个人的努力引导成一个有组织的团体，为集体的利益而工作。
3.例如，联合研究中心的一项研究调查了计算机软件和硬件行业的105家中小型公司。
研究结果显示，当一位谦逊的CEO执掌一家公司时，其高层管理团队更有可能合作和分享信息，最大限度地利用公司的人才。
4.另一项研究表明，领导者的谦逊具有传染性:当领导者表现谦逊时，追随者就会效仿他们谦逊的态度和行为。
对161个研究团队的一项研究发现，追随谦逊领导的员工更有可能承认自己的错误和局限性，通过将赞扬转移到他人身上来分享聚光灯，并对新想法、建议和反馈持开放态度。
5.然而，我们并没有追随这些无名英雄的脚步，而是似乎天生就在寻找超级英雄:那些过分赞美且散发着魅力的领袖。
6.在希腊语中，Kharisma的意思是“神圣的礼物”，而魅力是指具有非凡魅力、吸引力和存在感的品质，使一个人能够以热情和奉献精神激励他人。
德国社会学家马克斯•韦伯(Max Weber)将魅力定义为“神圣的起源或模范，在此基础上，相关的个人被视为领导者。
”关于魅力型领导的研究证据表明，魅力型的人更有可能被认可为领导者，因为他们精力充沛、非常规行为和英雄事迹。
7.虽然魅力有助于促成积极的大规模转变，但魅力型领导也可能有“黑暗面”。
杰伊·康格(Jay Conger)和拉宾德拉·卡农戈(Rabindra Kanungo)在他们的著作中这样描述:“有魅力的领导者可能倾向于极端自恋，这导致他们推动高度利己和宏伟的目标。
研究生新阶英语阅读 Unit 9 参考译文
研究生新阶英语阅读unit9参考译文Text A单项计时和多项计时1多年接触外国文化使我发现，复杂的社会在组织时间上至少有两种不同的方式：一种是根据不同时段安排不同任务，一次干一件事，这种计时制多见于北欧地区；另一种是在一个时段同时进行多项任务。
这两种系统在逻辑上和实际操作上都迥然不同，因此就像油和水，无法互融，各自既有优点也有缺点。
我把同时做多项事情称为多项计时或P-time,而把北欧系统——一次做一件事——称为单项计时或M-time。
多项计时强调的是人员的参与以及任务的完成，而不是强调对事前计划的执行。
对待预约时间也并不很认真，因此，食言是常有的事。
同时，多项计时也不像单项计时那样明确。
多项计时的人们很少感觉时间“被浪费了”。
时间通常被看作是一个点而不是一条丝带或一段路，但这个点一般却是很郑重和严肃的。
例如，如果一个阿拉伯人说：“我一个小时左右会见你”或者“我两天后见你”。
第一句话意味着他（她）会在一个小时之内见你。
第二句话意味着至少两天之后才会见你。
身处多项计时模式的社会里，人们严肃认真地对待这些承诺。
2尽管单项计时文化中的人恪守时间的安排，但是有时事情的发生却不像单时制预料地那么好。
因为我们的生活在很多时候都是难以预料的，谁能准确无误的预言某一客户、病人或多宗交易将要进行的时间。
这些都是人生交往中无法估量的因素。
也许今天十分钟能完成的事，明天得需要二十分钟才行。
有时人们有拼命还赶不完的任务，而过几天却又有剩余时间，所以说他们“浪费了”剩余的时间。
3北美人在拉美和中东经常会感到心情郁闷。
因为不论在地中海和阿拉伯国家的市场、商店还是集市，他们都处在多项计时的大环境中，周围到处是购物付款的顾客，但只有一位收银员，大家都争着吸引收银员的注意，收银员也恨不得一次就让所有人付完帐。
由于没有公认的秩序确定谁先谁后，也没有排队一说，因此也就不清楚到底谁来得最早。
对北欧或美国人来说，周围似乎充斥着混乱和喧嚣。
(完整版)Unit-9-What-is-happiness课文翻译
Unit 9 What Is Happiness?The right to pursue happiness is issued to Americans with their birth certificates, but no one seems quite sure which way it runs. It may be we are issued a hunting license but offered no game. Jonathan Swift seemed to think so w hen he attacked the idea of happiness as “the possession of being well-deceived,” the felicity of being “a fool among knaves.” For Swift saw society as Vanity Fair, the land of false goals.自从呱呱坠地，美国人就被赋予了追求幸福的权利，但似乎没人确信幸福究竟在哪里。
正如它发给我们狩猎证，却不给我们提供猎物。
乔纳森•斯威福特似乎持此观点，他抨击幸福的想法是“鬼迷心窍的上当，”是“骗子堆中的傻瓜”的自鸣得意。
因为他视社会为虚妄目标聚集的名利场。
It is, of course, un-American to think in terms of fools and knaves. We do, however, seem to be dedicated to the idea of buying our way to happiness. We shall all have made it to Heaven when we possess enough.当然用傻子、骗子这样的字眼来形容是不合美国的人的风俗习惯的，然后我们似乎确实沉溺于用金钱购买幸福的想法：只要有足够的钱，我们百年后就能上天堂。

第十单元霍利今天上班吗？对于我和霍利来说，故事是从一只流浪猫开始的。
我每周会有三天时间在一家小学给学生做心理治疗，流浪猫被抛弃在寒冬中，在我们大楼前的台阶上冻得缩成一团。
那天早上，校长正在要把猫带到哪去的时候，我便把它带到了办公室。
开始的时候，孩子们眼神呆滞，无精打采地走到我的办公室接受治疗。
当他们发现了小猫，他们的表情立刻变得明亮起来。
在他们抚摸流浪猫的时候，他们的自闭与紧张好像消失了，我们的治疗课程也变得轻松自由。
小猫的效应是惊人的，那天快要结束的时候，我酝酿了一个方案。
我的狗霍利，是一只温顺，合群，举止得体，七岁大的杂交狗。
我想它能不能同样使孩子们放松情绪呢？我充满了热情，向校长书面申请允许我带霍利去学校，并提供了关于动物伙伴的好处的文件。
这个提案被批准了，但是领导清楚地告诉我霍利和我处于实验阶段，关于狗在实验时发生的任何问题，我都要承担全部责任。
我仍然很乐观。
霍利第一次和我来到学校，我微笑的看着粘贴在我办公室门上的标签。
“霍利很高兴来到这里”孩子们仔细地读着标签上印刷的字，他们对狗作为一名顾问的想法做出了肯定的反应。
霍利嗅着我的办公室，我们在为这一天的工作做准备。
一个小男孩进来了，他和霍利小心翼翼地对视着，“那狗咬人吗？”“不咬人”，我向他保证。
“你为什么不能给她点礼物？”我递给男孩一个装着五彩狗食的袋子，“选一个你喜欢的颜色”，我说道。
男孩选了一个红色的，试着伸给霍利。
霍利小心地，轻轻地拿到食物后很快吞了下去，舔了舔男孩的手。
男孩笑了。
霍利的关键性的初次登场圆满成功。
下课铃响了以后，一群小参观者来到了我们的门前。
他们都是来看霍利的。
他们轮流着给霍利食物吃，而霍利摇着尾巴，舔着他们的手表示友好。
毫无疑问，孩子们被他吸引了。
对他们来说，这是他们第一次遇到的，在毫无准备的情况下待人接物。
在那以后的几天里，霍利学会了在孩子们敲我办公室门的时候不向他们大叫。
我在办公室里布置了一个角落给她，并放了一块地毯。

Bad bosses often have a recognizable modus operandi! Harry Levinson, an American management psychologist, had catalogued problem bosses, from the bully to the indecisive jellyfish to the disapproving perfectionist. If you’re suffering from a bad boss, chances are he or she combines several of these traits and can be dealt with effectively if you use the right strategy. 糟糕的老板都有众所周知的伎俩！美国管理心理学家哈里·莱文森将问题老板做了个分类，从欺压下属的恃强凌弱型到缺乏主见的优柔寡断型，再到求全责备的完美主义型。

研究生英语教程(上Unit 9 Affection and Friendship
Unit 9 Affection and FriendshipText A Fathers & Sons; the Bonding ProcessBill Hanson1 As far as I am concerned, my father was the finest man whoever lived. William Andrew Hanson II was my hero—John Wayne, Audie Murphy, and Joe DiMaggio all rolled into one. He was equal parts friends, mentor, and confidant. We spoke without words and loved without barriers.2 He grew up without a father, who died when Dad was only 10 years old. Life must have been lonely for a boy losing his father at such a young age, but Dad never wallowed in self-pity. He was independent and strong, a stubborn individualist. I don‟t know who taught him how to be a father, but he learned the lessons well.3 It w asn‟t easy for my parents to raise three boys. As I grew older, it was obvious that money wasn‟t plentiful, but Dad never lost his enthusiasm for living. Even our simplest conversations were painted with smiles. “ Dad, ” I would say, about to ask to borrow his hammer or pose some mundane question, and he would look up from his work and say in his unique way, “Yessiree, Bob-tailed, Buffalo Bill, Leroy Hanson the Third. ”4 He had a real way with words and f instilled in me an appreciation and knowledge for language. If you asked him the ^meaning of a word, he could tell you ; the complete etymology of it. Sometimes , lessons came when I least expected them. In high school, I brought a date home to meet my father. Trying to impress her, or just being a teenager, I was sneering and being insulting to just about everyone in the room. Dad finally said, “Bill,I want you to go over to my dictionary and tell me what the word … sarcasm ‟ means. ” He said it in such a commanding tone, I didn‟t resist. I flipped open the page and found the literal meaning—to rip flesh. In one single moment, he taught me the power of words. I haven‟t forgotten it.5 The day he died was the hardest day of my life. My world had hinged on him. No person had loved me the way he did—unconditionally.I began to appreciate how lonely he must have been when his own father died. Without Dad, I thought the hope in me had died as well. Our friendship spoke to my soul, and now the conversation was over.6 Becoming a father myself wasn‟t high on my list of things to do. I had a sense that someday it would happen, but not in the immediate future. Dirty diapers and responsibilities were not my idea of a good time. Almost a decade after my father died, an infant changed my mind. His name is Miles Christopher Hanson.7 When I think about my life today, I see it as before child and afterchild. Being a father means there are new challenges for me. I mustbe prepared to meet obstacles I never knew existed and keep one step ahead of my growing boy‟s needs.8 There was no school degree to prepare me for fatherhood. I went to the bookstores and scoured the shelves for something that would give me a recipe for being a good father. I found nothing. Here I was, endeavoring to take on the biggest commitment of my life, and I had no lines, no textbook, no videos to tell me what to do. It was a job with no description. People would say to me, “Just love him. ” Loving was the easy part. Being a father was not.9 I was terrified the first time I held this small, pink, wrinkled bundle in my arms, the first time I gave him a bath, the first time we were alone together. All I could do was remember my own childhood and realize that my father had been my world. It was the best advice I found. Slowly, I began to re alize that I had been Miles‟ world. I just started taking my cues from him and we did okay together. In fact, now we are inseparable.10 If I am mowing the lawn, Miles mows the lawn. If I am reading the paper, Miles reads the paper. If I am thirsty, so is Miles. He is imitating my steps as I once copied my own father‟s. Here is the cycle of life. We learn from our n'i fathers so we can teach our children.11 Miles taught me that the hope my father had in abundance did not die with him. When I look at Miles, I know what my father saw inme—hope for a better future. I wish there were a way to share with my father his precious grandson. Fate didn‟t see it that way. My mother married again, and now both Miles and I benefit from a caring stepfather. We have developed a father and son bond based on love, mutual admiration, and respect. My stepfather has been there for me as father, friend, and counselor. He also had taught me that fathers and sons don‟t necessarily have to share flesh and bones. A father is someone who is willing to claim a son as his own and take the responsibility of that relationship. I am fortunate to have his influence in my life.12 Being a father (parent) is—let‟s face it—a pretty thankless job. In today‟s media, the only fathers we se e are the “deadbeat” dads. Where are the millions of men who toil day after day, sacrificing their own needs in order to fulfill the needs of theirfamily? Those men are out there, but there are no rewards. Think about it, when the cameras pan the sideline s at a sporting event, do you hear “Dad?” No—moms get all the credit.13 Over the years, I have taken pictures to salute the men who are raising the next generation of fathers. They are redefining what it is to be a father. I consider the relationship between mother and child equally significant. In fact, Miles has a great relationship with his mother, as I do with mine. Nevertheless, the photos are designed to encompass the relationship between father and son. As fathers, old expectations were toprotect, discipline, and provide for their offspring. Today, society expects and needs men to be more involved. Th e question is how.14 Each father and son team I have portrayed has found common ground in their relationship. Some fathers are in the wonderment phase—seeing the world through the eyes of their growing sons. Others are watching their sons cope with the demons of today. One or two fathers are discovering their sons. Some sons are fatherless, and some fathers are sonless. There are fathers who have watched their sons combat a fatal disease, others who have watched their sons grow into successful businessmen. Some of the fathers have been primary caregivers to their sons, while others have felt the pain of seeing their offspring grow up in a distant city because of divorce. One of the fathers talks of sharing the moment of winning a world championship title with his son, and another writes of reading Goose Bumps to his sons each evening. Fathers talk about newborns entering the world and about coaching Little League, of sons marrying and having their own sons, and of the passing of tradition. Each has taught by example and each has loved unconditionally.15 I hope that, through my photos, you will see men who are doing their best for their sons. You‟11 also see sons who are making their fathers proud—not because they are presidents, star athletes, millionaires, or celebrities, but because, at one point in history, a man had a son, and that son had a father who became his whole world. They learned fromeach other, laughed with each other, argued with each other, and loved. The bond between fathers and sons is unbreakable. It can be celebrated, cursed, strained, ridiculed, and honored. However, it can not be broken.(1330words)。

Unitone你认为自己是什么样的人，那你就是什么样的人如果你改变想法——从悲观变为乐观——你就可以改变自己的生活卡勒普-撒弗兰[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?当研究者们自细观察积极思维的作用时，这些陈辞滥调突然问都成了科学问题。
[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15000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，并与沮丧、孤独及令人苦恼的腼腆密切相关。
位于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，”匹兹堡的卡内基一梅降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·塞利棉曼与同事彼得·舒尔曼在一项重要研究中对大都市人寿保险公司的推销员进行了广泛调察。
他们发现，存工龄较长的推销员中，积极思考比消极思考者要多推销37％的保险额。
机新雇用的推销员中，乐观主义者则多销了20％。
[5]公司受到了触动，便雇用了100名虽未通过标准化企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推销员的平均额10％。
[6]他们是如何做的呢？据塞利格曼说，乐观主义者成功的秘诀就在于他的“解释方式”。
出了问题之后，悲观主义者倾向于自责。
他说：“我不善于做这种事，我总是失败。
”乐观主义者则寻找漏洞，他责怪天气、抱怨电话线路、或者甚至怪罪别人。
他认为，是那个客户当时情绪不好。
当一切顺利时，乐观主义者居功自傲而悲观主义者只把成功视为侥幸。

A place of legends: the Olympic Games proves its capacity for greatness againSimon Barnes in BeijingThere are three ways of enjoying sport, and they form a hierarchy. The three categories can mingle and merge, any two together or all three at once. But they still form three easily separated categories and there is no question as to which is the highest. I have spent the past 16 days in remorseless, painstaking and thrilling search for the sport of the third kind, and I encountered it on at least four occasions.The lowest of these categories is partisanship: us lot beating them lot, our bloke beating their bloke - and it's the most wonderful fun, especially when you win. Partisanship is the bread and butter of the sports industry: loyalty, identification, cheering for your team, your man, feeling absurdly glad when you win and suffering the most ridiculous pain when you lose. One world, one dream, and that dream is to beat the crap out of everybody else. Partisanship is Tim Henman at Wimbledon: agonising desperation for a mere result, glorious and painful to experience because of the extreme identification of audience and athlete.This has been a great Games for British partisanship, but I haven't been around many British medals. I managed only a single gold and that was more by luck than judgment. I had gone to the Water Cube for quite other reasons when I watched the superb Rebecca Adlington win her first gold medal, in the 400 metres freestyle. It was the first British swimming gold for women for 48 years and it was a moment to savour.The middle category is drama. Drama effortlessly sheds the chains of partisanship. In Wimbledon terms, this was the Goran Ivanisevic final, in which Ivanisevic kept double faulting on match point, kissing tennis balls, calling to the heavens and, eventually, won. It was an amazing match, but sport can still do better than this.The men's super-heavyweight weightlifting supplies drama at every Olympic Games and the event is a real favourite of mine. This time, the drama was greater even than usual; an unexpected and glorious victory for Matthias Steiner, of Germany, with the last lift of the competition. He then burst into tears, cavorted about the stage in a mad dance like a giant baby in his romper suit, accepted his gold medal and held it up, holding in his other hand a picture of his wife, who was killed in a car crash last year. As drama goes, this was pretty rich.You can get partisanship and drama together; very often, in fact,because drama feeds off intensity of feeling. It is partisanship that gives such drama to the doings of the England football team. England's most recent competitive match, in which they lost to Croatia at Wembley, was not without its dramatic side; the strategy was a farce and the result was a tragedy.But let us move up to sport of the third kind. It is this category I have been looking for at these Olympic Games and, for that matter, at every Olympic Games of the six I have attended. It is a good place to look - you are more likely to find this category at the Games than at any other sporting event. The third category is greatness.In Wimbledon terms, it is the best of the Sampras finals. Those unaware or unappreciative of the third category found Sampras boring. One can only have pity for people who find greatness boring.At these Games, I have turned myself into a greatness hunter, a tart for greatness, if you prefer. And I found it, and it was better than all those lovely British medals, and better than all that wonderful drama - the sort of drama that we found at the taekwondo at the weekend, when a Cuban kicked a referee in the head and Sarah Stevenson, of Great Britain, won a bronze medal and left on crutches.At these Games, I first encountered greatness at the swimming pool, where I watched Michael Phelps make his inexorable way to eight gold medals. Eight at a single Games beats the record of Mark Spitz. Phelps now has 14 in all, five more than anyone else in history - and he's eyeing up London. Some say that swimming medals are cheap. No Olympic medal is cheap. There's only one swimmer - Spitz - among the four athletes who have a total of nine gold medals to their names.Phelps's eight triumphs were played out without fuss and with little attendant drama. His face, shorn of the louche beard and the tangled mop he wore before the Games, is the essence of blandness, his remarks in victory little better. Being the most decorated Olympian ever is “kinda neat”.But never mind that. What counts is the remorseless drive for perfection, the extraordinary talent, the unstoppable desire to express that talent and, thereby, to redefine our understanding of the possible. That's greatness. Sport can bring us such a thing and do it more vividly than anything else on earth.Then there was Yelena Isinbayeva, the soaring woman of the Bird's Nest stadium, a glorious emblem of all the aspirations of womankind andof humankind, waiting patiently while her pole vault rivals fought for the minor medals before emerging from a kind of coma to put on The Me Show: six jumps, two successes, teasing out the drama and taking it one notch higher, to transform drama into greatness. She even gave us a precise figure for greatness: 5.05 metres, a world record.It was unforgettable: a beautiful woman, a superb athlete, flying into the night sky, soaring like the human spirit, a perfect symbol of the hope we have for ourselves and for the world. Isinbayeva told us that all things are possible, that we can leave the base earth behind and soar to unimaginable levels of greatness. It was a night that enriched all who saw it.All the same, one Games, one star. Usain Bolt, the gawky Jamaican giant, ran faster than anyone has run before, faster than anyone has considered running, and he did so without really trying. We will argue for ever about how fast he might have gone had he not felt the incontinent need to celebrate his victory in the 100 metres with 20 metres still to run.I shall never forget the sight, looking down from a canny position above and a little beyond the finish line: the field shredded behind him, the giant with his endless arms outspread like the wings of an albatross, doing the high-step as he didn't run, but danced over the line to win in a time of 9.69sec. Four days later he broke a second world record, this time in the 200 metres, running every stride with consummate seriousness.All this is greatness. True, it is not greatness as in Shakespeare or Leonardo da Vinci, or in the saints and martyrs. These three great athletes have not ended political strife, put the ecological holocaust into reverse, cured Aids and ended global warming. They haven't done anything of any use whatsoever. What they have done, in any severe analysis, is trivial and unimportant.But greatness can never be trivial. A level of achievement that goes beyond anything done before cannot fail to be vivid and meaningful and inspiring. That's why these great events, though mere games, mean so much to us. Great events, great achievements, great athletes catch our imaginations and enrich our lives - and that is what the Olympic Games are for.第二篇：winter is coming ... To the world cupWhat do you do to make the crazy idea of a World Cup in Qatar a little less crazy? If you're Joseph "Sepp" Blatter, president of global soccer's governing body, you switch the tournament from the summer to the winter. Apparently, he didn't realize that making a winter World Cup a success may be an even bigger challenge.The decision to award Qatar the 2022 World Cup was perhaps the most bizarre in FIFA's history. Until then, every host country had been decent at soccer and had boasted a population bigger than the tournament's total attendance. Today, Qatar has about the same population, about 1.8 million, that Uruguay did when it hosted the first World Cup in 1930. But attendance then was below 600,000; at the last World Cup, in South Africa in 2010, 3.2 million seats were filled.Either a lot of people are going to have to go to Qatar to match that figure, or the Qataris are each going to have to attend a lot of matches. Unlike most people, they can probably afford to, with income per capita soon to hit $100,000. There isn't exactly a lot of competition in the market for flights to Doha, either; only a handful of airlines fly there from outside the region.Climate has been another obvious issue. The Qataris promised to build air-conditioned stadiums, but they may have neglected the fact that much of what's enjoyable about a World Cup happens outside, in the streets and plazas of the host cities, where people chant, kick balls around, and watch matches on big screens until late at night.This omission is not surprising. In most of the recently constructed Gulf cities, there's very little street life to speak of. The fun happens inside private compounds, clubs, restaurants, and hotels. The locals whizz around in expensive cars, and the only people on the streets -- especially in the heat of the day -- tend to be male migrant workers. Often, they don't even have the benefit of sidewalks.Putting the fun back into the World Cup is going to be a challenge for Qatar, as it tries to turn itself into a $200 billion soccer Disneyland. Of course, the legions of wealthy businessmen -- they do tend to be men -- whose companies buy up thousands of seats won't be out on the streets.But soccer isn't just for them.The first step, moving the tournament to the winter, now has the influential endorsement of Blatter, who has been FIFA's president for the past 15 years. His decision has provoked outrage among the real powers in soccer: the top professional teams. For starters, these teams are rarely pleased when their millionaire players go off to play for their respective countries; it's just another opportunity for them to get injured. But placing the tournament in the middle of their seasons, when the players are supposed to be at peak fitness and involved in as many as five lucrative competitions, is equivalent to FIFA stealing part of the return on some very big investments.By the same token, though, the switch to the winter could lead to better soccer games at the World Cup. When teams full of top players fail to meet expectations in the tournament, as France did when it exited after the first round in 2002, observers often blame the rigors of the August-to-May schedule used by most of Europe's big leagues. Players usually take a couple of months off in the summer to recuperate. When they can't, the strain sometimes shows.But the real problem with switching the tournament to the winter has to do with the success of the tournament for FIFA and soccer itself. Sports fans usually enjoy more than one sport. In the winter, several sports besides soccer are in full swing: American football, basketball, ice hockey, and, in 2022, the Winter Olympics. By contrast, summer World Cups coincide with the monotonous middle of the baseball season, some car races, a few international cricket matches, and little else of global importance.As a result, a winter World Cup will face some stern competition for the casual viewer's attention. Will Americans turn off the NFL playoffs to watch Iran play Tunisia? Will the Chinese skip the NBA to tune into Belgium versus Ecuador? At the margins, people who might have switched on a match or two in the summer -- and perhaps become long-term fans of the game -- may make another choice.The winter is also a tougher time for many fans to travel. Except in the lightly populated Southern Hemisphere, most countries have school breaks in the summer. In Europe, which has the biggest base of soccer fans with enough money to go to Qatar, several big countries have fairly standard vacation periods in the summer, too. Faced with the prospect of going to a culturally conservative country without a lot of well-known attractions beyond the World Cup itself, traveling fans may simply opt to stay home.It seems very likely that the inflow of tourists to Qatar will be much smaller than the 300,000 who came to South Africa during the 2010 World Cup. The Qataris may well protect FIFA's ticket sales by putting rear ends in seats, even if they're the same rear ends over and over. Where FIFA stands to lose is in the broadcast revenues. If fewer people are expected to watch, advertising will be less valuable, and networks won't pay as much to show the games.Yet FIFA executives are unlikely to fret much about this. They'll still be wined and dined to the heights of extravagance in Qatar, and they may already have received some rich payoffs for picking the host country in the first place. In this game, only the sport of soccer will lose.。

研究生英语系列教材上第9单元 A 篇参考译文
住房危机走向郊区
在过去的五年里;弗吉尼亚州费尔法克斯县的住房价格增长速度是家庭收入增长速度的12倍。
今天，该县中等家庭不得不将其收入的54%用于购买位于该县的普通住房;在2000这个数字是26%。
形势如此严峻，以至于费尔法克斯县最近开始对年收入90，000美元的家庭提供住房补贴;很快，这个数字可能提高到I10，000美元。
1. 富兰克林·罗斯福总统曾经说经济大萧条造成1/3的美国人住房简陋、衣衫楼兰、营养不良，然而70午后的今天，美国人却是穿着考究、营养日益过剩。
但是，廉价房稀缺是一场日益加深的民族危机，而不仅仅是依靠福利为生的城市家庭的危机。
这个问题己经波及中产阶级，并向郊区蔓延，在那里服务工作者及其家属挤在过于狭小的公寓里，大学毕业生不得不借宿在父母家，而消防队员、警察和教师在他们所服务的社区也买不起房。
2．住房拥有率接近历史最高位，但有房户和无房户之间的差距越来越大，有房子离工作单位80英里远的有房户之间的差距也越来越大。
现在，1／3的美国人花费至少30%的收人用于住房，联邦政府将这种情况定义为"无力支付"的负担，而有一半的穷打工仔花费至少50%的收人用于租房，这种情况被称为"极其严重"的负担。
在过去
10午里，房地产迅猛发展，这使得在此之前就已经购置房产的美国人大赚特赚了一把，但现在廉价房对中、低收人的美国人来说，是一个比税收、社会保险、汽油价、格更严重的问题。
3美国曾经非常关注廉价房间题。
1934午和1937午，罗斯福签署了住房立法，提供抵押贷款、攻府公寓，并为那些穷困潦倒的工人提供建筑工作。
1949午，国会树立了官方目标---- "让每一个美国家庭都能拥有一个体面的家和宜居环境，"而到了1974年，尼克松总统开始对数以百万计的低收入租户在私有住房方面提供租金补贴凭单。
半个世纪以来，在华盛顿发生的大多数住房方面的辩论都围绕着一个主题:即应该在多大程度上扩大联邦政府的资助。
4. 但在过去20年中，唯一的联邦住房新提案就是H0P VI，也就是克林顿政府拆毁80，000单位的最羞公共住房，重建混合收人寓所来取而代之。
该计划己经拆除了大部分高度危险的房子，它们曾使公共住房声名狼藉，并己重建了一些城市的社区。
但是它更多的是把享有补贴的公寓房夷为平地而不是取而代之。
5．总的来说，自90年代初以来，接受联邦援助的家庭数己经降到最低，尽管人口不断增加，预算不断膨胀。
美国国会已经拒绝了美国总统布什提出的大部分的削减计划，但几乎没有讨论过增加计划；廉价房的倡导者花费的大部分时间都被用于努力争取保持现状。
6．而现状真是很艰难。
今天，有450万低收人家庭享受联邦住房救助，还有3倍于此的家庭符合被救助资格，却拿不到救助。
费尔法克斯县有12，000户家庭在排队轮候4，000套救助公寓。
"这太宝贵了，
一且拥有，没有人愿意放弃。
"费尔法克斯住房委员会主席康拉德·艾根这样说。
这听起来奇怪，但如今住房危机的受害者不是那些已经享受"救助计划"的人，而是那些没那么幸运去享受这个计划的人。
7．一些自由派人士梦想着对所有合格的低收人家庭都给予补贴，但是这个每年要斥资上千亿美元的解决办法很不现实，即便是在预算赤字再度膨胀之前也不现实。
因此，即使一些曾经主张住房政策的人现在也支持对大多数联邦租房救济金实行时间限制。
人们对10年前福利改革中所设计的时间问题有争议，但研究表明，这些时限有助于激励受助人摆脱对福利的依赖。
和福利不同的是，住房救济金不是联邦所赋予的权利。
因此几年后对一个家庭停止共给意味着给另一个同样需要救济的家庭一个喘息的机会。
8．"这是显而易见的事，"大卫·史密斯---- 波士顿的一位廉价房的倡导者说，“你不能让内在矛盾无限地延续。
"
9．间题的根源是廉价房的供需，或者更准确地说，工作地点附近的廉价房的供需之间极不协调。
据哈佛大学住宅联合研究中心提供的数据，现在有1，500万个家庭至少把他们一半的收人用于支付住房费用;许多人为了住房甚至在医疗保健、照顾儿董和食品等方面节省开支。
其他人为了减少租金，居住条件极为拥挤，研究表明，拥挤的居住条件与高犯罪率、学习成绩差、以及健康状况不佳紧密相关，仅洛杉矾就有62万户家庭多人共居一室。
其他工作者居住在较为便宜的社区，忍受着越来越长距离的交通往返，这种现象被称为"驾驶以保生活质量"。
10．这造成各种不良结果---- 孩子们看不到父母;当汽油价格飘升、城市向外扩张、道路上堵满了长途通勤的打工者、他们的汽车排放着温室气体，劳动者根本就入不敷出。
费尔法克斯县监督委员会的会长凯西·哈金斯说:"我认为如果我们迫使人们平均每天四个小时呆在汽车里，我们就无法建立强大的社区。
"廉价房也可以使社区具有竞争力;如果打工者没钱住在那里，我们还真不知道费尔法克斯县怎能一直创造就业机会。
11. 为促进廉价房，地方官员最好不要挡在路上---- 不要要求一英亩最小面积和两车位的车库、不要阻止低收人和高密度的项目。
12．另一方面，联邦预算由华盛顿政界人士决定。
但是，美国国会自1986年施行低收人住房税收抵免政策以来没有再支持过新的建设项目，该政策每年造就近100，000套廉价住房，足以取代被拆除或被转变为市场化招租的那些住房总数的一半。
布什在2000年和2004年的竞选中提出了房屋所有权税收抵免攻策，这是一项极好的政策;但是他最终竟然没有实行。
一项等待国会投票的法案可能会把一些联邦特许机构------如房利美----- 的利润按照一定的百分比转移到国家廉价房信托基金名下，但这项法案似乎停滞不前。
唯一的用国家力量促进支付能力的办法并不是有关住房的办法;例如，有一个方法可以让劳动者更能够负担得起住房费用，那就是提高他们的收人-----通过提高最低工资、降低工资税或扩大收人税收抵免等方式。
13．解决廉价房危机的一个明确办法:房地产市场崩溃。
这是一个能够吸引媒体关注的住房间题―――因为这会伤害有房户。
但是对于使
用风险贷款的低收入房屋所有人来说放松价格可能是毁灭性的，另一方面对于无房者来说，它也不会带来居者有其屋的结果。
价格下降还有很大的空间，在2000年，费尔法克斯2/3的房屋销售价格不高于$250，000，但去年只有不到１/２０的房屋以此价格出售。
即便价格小幅下滑都可能引发建设减速，从而使中等收人家庭缺乏廉价房的局面变得更糟糕。
14．最终，政治家可能重新发现住房间题不是一个城市贫困问题，而是一个中产阶级的生活质量问题，正如燃油价格或医疗保健一样。
居者有其屋通常被称为是美国梦，但如今许多劳动者为了使他们的家人不至于破产，宁愿租一所体面的房子居住。
