Lesson 7 ：Cities and Suburbs Are Trading Places远程办公Young Singles, Other ‘Non-Families’ Taking Over Outer Areas, Study Shows研究显示，单身青年和其他“非家庭成员”占据了周边地区By D’Vera Cohn.A role reversal between cities and suburbs is rewriting a demographic script that has dominated American life for decades.城市和郊区之间的角色转换正在改写几十年来主导美国生活的人口统计学脚本。
Young singles, elderly widows and other such “non-family households”now outnumber married-with-children homes in the nation’s suburbs, creating changes in demand for housing, entertainment and services in the communities where most Americans live.在美国的郊区，年轻的单身人士、年老的寡妇和其他类似的“无家庭家庭”现在的数量超过了结婚带孩子的家庭，这就改变了大多数美国人居住的社区对住房、娱乐和服务的需求。
At the same time, the married-with-children families often thought of as typically suburban are increasing in many growing cities of the South and West, according to a study based on the 2000 Census to be released today by the Brookings Institution.与此同时，布鲁金斯学会(Brookings Institution)今天发布的一项基于2000年人口普查的研究显示，在美国南部和西部许多发展中城市，通常被认为是典型的郊区已婚带孩子家庭的人数正在增加。

第13篇乔治亚州简单生活的写照乡村生活在Hollywood电影中经常是理想化和浪漫化的。
Harry Crews,一位美国作家，在此讲述一个不同的故事。
夹杂了苦恼、幽默和深思熟虑的粗矿的风格，Crews的这篇文章展示了乡村生活不为人知的残酷、悲哀和痛苦的一面。
就在Hollywood电影总是不停地展现乡村人们的微笑时，Crews愿与他的读者看一看内里的本质。
不久之前，我和我12岁的儿子去看一部Disney电影，类似于讲述一个贫穷但诚实劳动的农场家庭，在那里主角遭受饥饿并辛苦地工作。
那些饥饿和苦活似乎充满乐趣（for the hell of it，好玩；找乐趣）。
那贫困最终会有回报，并且是远非你所能经受得住的。
那农场充满暖暖的，毛茸茸的，有毛皮的，鼻子湿湿的动物：牛驴狗都象人一样对待。
在这里到处都有那么一点点苦痛，但只是刚好为了让我们全部都学到重要的道理。
它有时甚至使我们落泪，但不是真正的眼泪，因为这只是作为在故事中段，那个家庭为了生存不知在哪里从土里刨食的证明，而事实上情况并不是太坏。
有人总是轻抚那些胖嘟嘟的小动物，轻声对它们说话，仿佛他们饲养这些动物是有各种难以莫名的理由，但决不是将它们阉割，屠杀，剥皮和吃掉的。
毕竟，他们是朋友。
如果有人生病，他要跳上一部老式并发出噪声却值得信赖的小货车，开往城镇，那里有一个好心的医生会马上迎接你进入他的office，并通过检查喉咙，让他说声Ah来作出快速有效的治疗。
从来不会提到付款的事。
当我儿子和我走出电影院，在阳光下眨眼时，我突然想到Disney和其它的——那些把你带到如The Waltons,或者The Little House on the Prairie的人们——不仅设法把这种奇怪的贫穷现象和乡村生活推销给郊区居民（尽管这些郊区居民已经以麦芽球和爆米花把自己喂得饱饱的）并且推销给全个南部小城镇的人们，他们有着相反的日常生活的证据。
全部都是幻想。
现在幻想无任何过错。

英美报刊阅读教程中级精选本 第五版 端木义万lesson 5 Food and Obesity
Lesson5 Food and ObesityBeing fat is be coming the norm for Americans.As it will soon be come in this country, I have seen the future, and it's extra large.By Joan SmithA friend who happens to be both American and a superb cook-his poulet de Bresse en deuil is one of the most memorable dishes I have tasted--called me a couple of days ago,enthusing about a lecture he had just at ended.The thesis,he said,was that the human body has changed irrevocably over the last quarter of a century and that the physical environment—chairs,beds, airline seats-will gradually adapt to accommodate the new shape.It is,of course,in the US, where my friend no longer lives,that this evolutionary experiment is most advanced;for years now, millions of people have been gorging themselves on vast helpings of fast food, with the consequence that about 60 percent of the population is overweight.According to Greg Critser, author of Fat Land：How Americans Became the Fattest People in the Word, none of this has happened by accident. Critser argues that the challenge to the US food industry in the 1970s was that the population was growing more slowly than the food supply, so people had to be persuaded to change their eating habits. Fast food, invented after the Second World War as an affordable way of getting families to eat together, became a means of selling surplus fat and sugar to the far-from-unwilling masses. This is a social revolution on a grand scale as scarcity, with which most human beings have had to struggle throughout history, has given way to an apparently permanent state of plenty.It may also help to explain why the magician David Blaine, suspended without food in a Perspex box beside Tower Bridge,has such a grip on people's imaginations.In an astonishingly short period of time, starvation has metamorphosed from a threat to a spectacle, and families are turning out en mass eat weekends to see how his hunger strike is going. For the fifth of the British population who are obese, and unused to doing without food for more than a few hours, the notion of someone giving it up for 44 days is unthinkable, some normal-size people have turned up to mock, throwing egg, cooking food and even trying to cut off the water supply to the hung American. Perhaps this is the point, that there are so few starving Americans in the world, which makes his self-imposed ordeal appear ludicrously self-indulgent.Yet it is possible to take Critser’s argument a stage further and suggest that millions of Americans are trapped between two industries, fast food and slimming, which enjoy a cosily symbiotic relationship. Research by a fast-food chain showed that what customers cared about was neither taster nor quality but portion size; what they have come to expect from food, and what their neighbours are beginning to want as well-obesity has increased by 158 per cent in Mexico in a decade, since fast food outlets began to replace the traditional diet-is a feeling of being stuffed to the gills. Cooking has become a spectator sport, something to watch famous people do on telly, as the populations of affluent countries rely increasingly on supermarket meals and takeaways. For many people, eating has become an addiction rather than a pleasure, and going on a diet merely replaces on morbid habit with another.In the circumstances, it is not really surprising that people are confused andangered by Blaine, whose stunt highlights the disordered relation to eating which has become habitual in Western societies. Far from being an object of derision as his body enters ketosis, the state in which it starts to consume itself, he should logically be the envy of all those individuals who are endlessly trying Atking and other fashionable diets. We are so used to hearing people pay to get hungry, turning the condition of starving Africans into a longed-for luxury. There is something shaming about this, and about the extent to which so many people-like Kafka’s hunger artist, who was addicted to starving-have lost control of their appetites.Perhaps the thesis my friend described to me on the phone is correct, and houses and cars and planes will just have to get bigger as the human race-the affluent part of it, that is-continues to inflate itself with empty calories. Bizarrely, being fat is fast becoming the norm for Americans, and even in this country it will soon be people like me(5ft 5in and a paltry nine stone) who are the freaks. I have seen the future, and it’s extra large.Plain food moves up a classI was supposed to give a talk myself at the weekend, on food and class, but had to pull out because of an annoyingly persistent throat virus. I was going to discuss “ eating above your station”, which is something I learnt to do, like many people of my generation, when I went to university. Until then, I had scarcely ever eaten in a restaurant and I had never tried what my family referred to as “foreign muck”. Ever macaroni cheese was too exotic for my parents, who tipped it into the bin when I came home from cookery class with a Pyrex dish full of overcooked pasta and melted cheddar.Food was plain, served on a plate with thick portions of gravy or custard, and the idea of helping yourself from serving dishes seemed the height of sophistication. What strikes me now, looking back on that traditional working-class diet, is that it was unadventurous but it didn’t do me ant harm. My father grew vegetables, my mother shelled peas and sliced carrots, and I don’t recall anyone in my family being overweight. It’s hard to eat too much when someone else puts the food on your plate. These days, if a working-class diet can be said to exist, it is surperficially much more cosmopolitan-curries, pizza, the ubiquitous Chinese takeaway-but adapted to satisfy the British appetite for saturated fat, salt and sugar.In a curious reversal, plain food-simple grilled fish with a green salad, such as the wonderful meal I ate in Marbella in the summer-has become the province of the middle class. I am one of those lucky people who changed class at the right time and in the right direction, but the effects of our eating habits-a slender elite, as millions of ordinary people pile on the pounds-suggest that class divisions are as deep as ever.Bring on the euroI was driving back from a health farm the other day when the friend with whom I had just shared three days of massage, facials and Pilates said rather nervously that she wanted to ask me a question. I naturally assumed that she wanted to talk about men, underwear or the least painful way of shaving your legs, as women do when they know each other well, but it turned out to be something far more intimate. Am I, she asked, in favour of joining the euro?Oh God, anything but that. Admitting that you fell no attachment to the pound, and would like to use the euro in Waitrose, is like telling your friends that you have joined a weird sect. I don’t think people spend much time thinking about Gordon Brown’s five economic tests, but there is a presumption that the British did jolly week to stay out of the eurozone when all those foreigners gave up their currencies almost two years ago. And now we’re supposed to admire the Swedes for resoundingly voting “No” at the weekend.I don’t think I’ve ever confessed this in public before, and I suspect I won’t be invited to any smart parties for weeks at the very least.

Lesson4 Is an Ivy League Diploma Worth It？花钱读常春藤名校值不值？1.如果愿意的话，施瓦茨（Daniel Schwartz）本来是可以去一所常春藤联盟（Ivy League）院校读书的。
他只是认为不值。
2.18 岁的施瓦茨被康奈尔大学（Cornell University）录取了，但他最终却去了纽约市立大学麦考利荣誉学院（City University of New York’s Macaulay Honors College），后者是免费的。
3.施瓦茨说，加上奖学金和贷款的支持，家里原本是可以付得起康奈尔的学费的。
但他想当医生，他觉得医学院是更有价值的一项投资。
私立学校医学院一年的花费动辄就要4 万5 美元。
他说，不值得为了一个本科文凭一年花5 万多美元。
4.助学贷款违约率日益攀升，大量的大学毕业生找不到工作，因此越来越多的学生认定，从一所学费不太贵的学校拿到的学位和从一所精英学校拿到的文凭没什么区别，并且不必背负贷款负担。
5.Robert Pizzo 越来越多的学生选择收费较低的公立大学，或选择住在家里走读以节省住房开支。
美国学生贷款行销协会（Sallie Mae）的一份报告显示，2010 年至2011 学年，家庭年收入10 万美元以上的学生中有近25%选择就读两年制的公立学校，高于上一学年12%的比例。
6.这份报告称，这样的选择意味着，在2010 至2011 学年，各个收入阶层的家庭在大学教育上的花费比上一年少9%，平均支出为21,889 美元，包括现金、贷款、奖学金等。
高收入家庭的大学教育支出降低了18%，平均为25,760 美元。
这份一年一度的报告是在对约1,600 名学生和家长进行问卷调查后完成的。
7.这种做法是有风险的。
顶级大学往往能吸引到那些已经不再去其他学校招聘的公司前来招聘。
在许多招聘者以及研究生院看来，精英学校的文凭还是更有吸引力的。

The Story of a Corporation公司传奇Campbell Soup Company is one of the largest manufacturers of prepared foods, especially canned soups,canned spaghetti, and blended vegetable juice. The following is its story.金宝汤公司是最大的生产即时食物的公司之一，尤其是灌装汤，意大利面罐头和混合蔬菜汁，以下就是这个故事。
In 1869, Ulysses S. Grant was sworn into the Presidency and the last stake was driven into the transcontinental railroad. That same year, two men— a fruit merchant named Joseph Campbell and an icebox manufacturer named Abraham Anderson — shook hands in Camden, New Jersey, to form a business that would one day become one of the most recognized in the world and serve as a symbol of Americana: Campbell Soup Company. Originally called the Joseph A. Campbell Preserve Company, the business produced canned tomatoes, vegetables, jellies, soups, condiments, and minced meats. In 1897, a major milestone occurred when Arthur Dorrance, the general manager of the company, reluctantly hired his 24-year-old nephew to join the company. Dr. John T. Dorrance, a chemist who had trained in Europe, was so determined to join Campbell that he agreed to pay for laboratory equipment out of his own pocket and accept a token salary of just $7.50 per week.1869年，格兰特•尤利西兹宣布就职总统，横穿大陆的铁路通车。
