Post-ReadingReading Comprehension1. Understanding the Organization of the Text1) Introduction: (Para.1)Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people.2) Reasons why shyness can have a negative effect: (Para.2&3)People’s self-concept has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.People with high self-esteem usually act with confidence.People with low self-esteem are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others.3) Ways of overcoming shyness: (Para.4-15)i) Recognize your personal strengths and weaknesses.ii) Set reasonable goals.iii) Don’t waste time and energy on destructive feelings such as guilt and shame.iv) Don’t be afraid to speak up and give your point of view.v) Do not make negative comments about yourself.vi) Accept criticism thoughtfully.vii) Profit from failures and disappointments by viewing them as learning experiences.viii) Do not associate with people who make you feel inadequate.ix) Set aside time to relax, enjoy hobbies, and reevaluate your goals regularly.x) Practice being in social situations.4) Conclusion: (Para.16)The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential.2. Understanding Specific Information1) F2) F3) T4) T5) T6) F7) T8) F9) F10) T3. Group Discussion1) I think the most effective ways of overcoming shyness are the first and seventh ways. Recognizing our personal strengths and weaknesses is useful because if we know ourselves better, we can feel more self-confident. We can be more objective, instead of being blind. The seventh way is to profit from failures and disappointments as learning experiences. If we allow ourselves to get discouraged and sad when we fail, then we will feel more unsure of ourselves. But if we think of a failure as a learning experience, we are adopting a positive attitude. By analyzing objectively why we failed and planning how to set about doing things differently we will be more likely to succeed next time.2) Modesty is used to describe a reserved appraisal of one’s merits, abilities or success, e.g. she is very modest about her accomplishments. Shyness is used to describe the uncomfortable feeling one has in the company of others. It often implies a lack of self-confidence and a timid, reserved manner. Modesty is a good personality trait while shyness in many cases is undesirable.3) Yes, it is appropriate and normal to be shy in some circumstances: in the presence of teachers, your boss, your parents’ friends or your prospective in-laws; when you are dating someone, especially the first time; when you are with strangers; when you are in a new environment; when you’re facing a large audience.Vocabulary1. Self- is a prefix which means ―of, to or by oneself or itself.‖Words with the prefix self- that appear in the text: self-conscious, self-concept, self-assurance, self-worth, self-confidence, self-esteem, self-destructive, self-awareness, self-accept103fance, self-rejection, self-confident1) self-conscious (worried and embarrassed about what you look like or what other people think of you)2) self-confidence (belief in one’s own ability, power, judgment, etc.; confidence in oneself)3) self-esteem (the feeling that you are someone who deserves to be liked, respected, or4) self-destructive (with thoughts or actions that are counter to one’s own best interests)5) self-worth (the value you give to your life and achievements)6) self-concept (one’s conception or general idea of one’s own basic character and nature)7) self-awareness (realistic knowledge and judgment about oneself)8) self-assurance/self-confidence (the belief that you are able to deal with people and problems easily)2.

But Parrot told his wife to bring out all the hard and sharp, not the soft, things instead.16) His shell was broken into hundreds of pieces.2. Ekwefi is telling a story about Tortoise. Long long ago, there was a famine, and the birds got an invitation from the sky to attend a feast there. Tortoise learned about it and with his sweet tongue he persuaded the birds to take him with them and so each bird lent him a feather.103fTortoise cunningly thought of an idea that enabled him to have all the food by naming himself ―All of you.‖ When they reached the sky, they received a warm welcome and soon the food was presen ted to them. Then he asked one of the people in the sky: ―For whom have you prepared all this feast?‖ The man replied: ―For all of you.‖ So he ate almost all the best food. The birds became very angry and took back their feathers before flying home. Without feathers, he had to jump onto the ground and his shell was broken into pieces.3. Acting out the StorySampleBird A: How exciting! All of us are invited to the feast in the sky.Bird B: I just can’t wait. What do you think I should wear?Tortoise: Hello. Good morning. What are you excited about?Bird A: Didn’t you know that we are going to the sky?Bird B: And we are going to have a big dinner. What fun!Tortoise: How nice it is. What lucky guys. May I go with you? I’m sure we’ll have a lot of fun. Bird A: Yes, we’ll have great fun, but not you. We know you too well. You are full of cunning and you are ungrateful.Bird B: If we allow you to come with us, you will soon begin your mischief.Bird A: We know you of old.Tortoise: You don’t know me now. I’m a changed man. I am not the mischievous man you once knew. In fact, I am thoughtful and well-meaning. I have learned that a man who makes trouble for others is also making trouble for himself. Rest assured, I promise you I will not cause you any trouble.Bird A: (Talking to Bird B) Maybe he is a changed man now. Let’s talk to our bird friends and see if we will take him with us.(After a brief discussion with all the other birds)Bird B: Ok. Tortoise, now we all agreed to take you to the sky. Each of us will lend you a feather so that you can have two wings to fly.(During the flight to the party)Bird A: Tortoise is a great orator!Bird B: Let’s make him the spokesperson for the party.Tortoise: Did you know that we need a new name when we are invited to a great feast like this? It is an age-old custom and our hosts in the sky will expect us to honor it.Bird A: We haven’t heard of this before. But as you are such a learned man, if you say this, we will choose a new name for ourselves. I will call myself Good-Looking.Bird B: I am Smart-Ass.Tortoise: And my new name is All of You.(On their arrival at the sky)Sky people: Welcome to the sky, our dear bird friends. We are so pleased to see you again. Please make yourselves at home.Tortoise: My dear respected friends, thank you so much for inviting us to the sky. Nothing can make us happier than this. It is our greatest honor to be here and have a good time with you. Sky people: Thank you for your nice words. Now please help yourselves to the nuts.Bird A: Tortoise is really eloquent, isn’t he? I’m glad we decided to bring him with us. Bird B: Yes. And these are delicious nuts.Sky people: Now the dinner is ready. Please enjoy the soup, meat, fish and pounded yam. Here is palm wine, too.Tortoise: Just a moment. Let me ask you first. For whom have you prepared this feast? Skypeople: For whom? Why? For all of you, of course.Tortoise (To the birds): You remember that my name is All of You. The custom here is to serve the spokesman first and the others later. They will serve you when I finish.Sky people (To themselves): Looks like it is their custom to leave all the food to their king first. Tortoise: Mm. Yummy. Mm. I’m full now. You can start to eat.Bird A: We should never bring him here. I am too angry to eat. I’m going home.Bird B: Wait. I am leaving, too. Take the feather with us.Tortoise: What are you doing? Leave me the feather. Oh, how am I going home without a single feather? You can’t do this to me?Birds: Bye.Tortoise: Could someone take a message for my wife? Tell her to bring out everything soft and cover the ground. …4. Taking Sides篇二:新编大学英语第三册课文翻译Unit 1羞怯的痛苦对许多人来说,羞怯是很多不愉快的起因。
新世纪大学英语第三册课文翻译
新世纪大学英语第三册课文翻译Unit2 textA你的爱有多深|1, 有人认为爱如浮云,有人认为爱坚强如铁,有人认为爱是一种生活方式,有人认为爱是一种感觉,有人说爱要执着,有人说爱不要约束,有人说爱是生命的全部,有人说不知道爱为何物。
2 在我们生命中的某个阶段,我们会经历难以名状的情感。
这种情感只能体会,无法用语言描述。
莫大的喜悦伴随着丝丝的伤感一同降临,这就是爱。
3 在紧张忙碌的生活中,我们竟能找到时间,沉湎于感情之中,这确实令人感佩。
然而,此时我想知道:我们是否懂得爱到底有多么深刻。
记得上学的时候,我迷恋的对象真是数不清:我的数学老师、邻居的儿子、好朋友的弟弟,还有另外一些因为眼睛的颜色、胡子的形状或走路的姿势而让我倾慕的人。
年少时的爱慕,不会带来伤害,如肥皂泡一样转瞬即逝。
那些稚气、大胆的想法和行为,现在想来大可一笑了之。
但是,在那时,对我来说,没有比恋爱更重要的事了。
接着就进入了真正“谈〞情“说〞爱的阶段。
4我在女子学校学习,和男孩子交往的时机寥寥无几,因此,我热切地期待着我们学校和男子学校举办的交谊会。
交谊会上,一群精心打扮的年轻男子毫无顾忌地盯着我们。
这三个小时中的点点滴滴,成了我们在以后四个星期中足够的谈资,我们在议论时,心情澎湃。
5即使是在那个时候,我也没有真正交男朋友的需要。
、6在我的成长岁月中,不知何故,我相信爱情该来的时候自然会来。
事实果真如此。
当我有了稳定的工作,有了长期的方案和比拟安定的生活〔我现在还不到25岁呢!〕时,爱情降临了。
我也比拟成熟了,能够步入不贪图许多回报而需要大量付出的感情关系。
7 我的爱情是在友谊这块地基上建起的高楼大厦。
爱情经过旷日持久的培养才开花。
我和我的恋人相互理解、同甘共苦、相互关心,投入了丰富的感情,才使爱情开展到今天。
爱情意味着情投意合。
你也许会说,我属于浪漫的传统派。
但是,依我看,爱情需要培养。
我们必须把爱情同强烈而短暂的激情或身体的愉悦区别开来。

Swimming through fear游越恐惧I was on a tour of France with my friends when ourcar pulled to a stop at the beach a nd we saw theMediterranean Sea. Massive waves surged againstlarge rocks that form ed a waterproof jetty. Peoplesaid this beach was known for its notorious rip currents.I shivered with fear. Nothing scared me asmuch as water.当时我和朋友正在法国旅行,我们把汽车停在海滩,眼前就是地中海。
巨浪翻滚击打着构筑起防波堤的偌大岩石。
人们说这里的海滩以其可怕的裂流而著称。
恐惧让我不寒而栗。
没有什么比水让我更害怕了。
Just the sight of the sea made me sick to my stomach.只是看到了海就已经让我觉得反胃。
I'd always loved water and been a good swimmer until last summer, when I'd decided to climbup to the highest diving board at the pool. I'd hopped from that height and hit the water with an incredibleimpact. The air was ousted from my lungs and I blacke d out. The next thing I knew,my brother was pulling my feeble body out of the pool. From then on, my fear wouldn't recede; I was absolutely terrified of water.我曾经一直都是喜欢水的,并且直到去年夏天我都还是一名游泳好手。

综合英语教程第三册课文译文加课后翻译2第三册课文参考译文Unit 1Text 1我的父亲----来自一位著名男演员的女儿的叙述埃米·米特福德我并不真正了解父亲,他不是个很容易相处的人。
我觉得他比较以自我为中心, 还有一点虚荣, 有时候还会让人觉得有距离感。
公众们肯定都认为他很随和,其实在家的时候他基本上都是独处,不怎么跟我们交流的。
我小的时候父亲很少在家的,因为那时几乎没有什么关于他的记忆。
他对家庭生活一直是有一些生疏。
对他来说,工作总是放在第一位,而且记忆中他总是在外地演戏或是排练。
他喜欢别人找他签名,也喜欢被别人认出的感觉。
他获得过几个奖项,并为此感到骄傲。
记得在他获得大不列颠影帝奖时,我们必须到白金汉宫去领取奖牌。
那真是令人难以置信的无趣。
还有其他数以百计的人拿同样的奖项,所以你得一直坐在那等好几个小时。
每当有人来拜访我们家时,父亲总爱把他的奖项拿出来炫耀。
我上过公立学校,但是因为缺乏学习兴趣并且总是缺课,被勒令退学了。
最主要的是我一点也不想去那上学,因为这样我就和我的朋友们分开了。
把我送到那个学校读书他一定很高兴,但事实上到最后这一切只是浪费钱而已。
我想我一定让他感到非常失望。
后来我也试着做过几份工作但是都不能安心长久地做下去,然后我意识到我真正想做的是生活在乡村,并且,这也是我现在做的事情。
作为一家人,无论是情感上还是空间上我们都有距离。
这些日子我们很少见到彼此。
我和父亲的性格大相径庭。
我的兴趣一直都在乡村,而他则喜欢书和音乐,尤其是歌剧,这恰恰是我所讨厌的。
如果他们来看我,他们的衣着也完全不适合在乡村穿—貂皮大衣和漂亮的但不适合在田间走长路的小皮鞋。
父亲对我的婚姻更是完全反对。
他一直希望我和我的丈夫分开。
我想我丈夫出身太卑微了。
而父亲一定是想让我嫁给一个有名望的人,但结果并不能使他如愿。
而且事情往往就是这样。
我们夫妇俩并不打算要孩子,但是我的父亲总是不停地谈论着他想抱孙子。

当时他可不是个好学生,要不是出身名门,他可能早就因为违反纪律被开除了。
谢天谢地,他总算从哈罗毕业了,在那里犯下的错误并没影响到他上大学。
后来,他凭着军旅生涯中的杰出表现当选为英国首相。
他的才思、智慧、公民责任感以及在二战痛苦而黑暗的时期拒绝投降的无畏勇气,为他赢得了美名。
他非凡的决心,不仅激励了整个民族,还鼓舞了全世界。
在他首相任期即将结束时,他应邀前往母校哈罗公学,为满怀报国之志的同学们作演讲。
校长说:“年轻的先生们,当代最伟大的演说家过几天就会来为你们演讲,他提出的任何中肯的建议,你们都要听从。
”那个激动人心的日子终于到了。
温斯顿爵士站了起来——他只有 5 英尺 5 英寸高,体重却有 107 公斤。
他作了言简意赅的讲话:“年轻人,要永不放弃。
永不放弃!永不放弃!永不,永不,永不,永不!”个人经历、教育机会、个人困境,这些都不能阻挡一个全力以赴追求成功的、有着坚强意志的人。
任务再苦,准备再长,难度再大,都不能让他放弃自己的追求。
就以本时代最有学问的两位科学家——阿尔1 / 48伯特·爱因斯坦和托马斯·爱迪生为例,他们都曾面临巨大的障碍和极端的批评,都曾被说成“不开窍”,被老师当成笨蛋而放弃。
托马斯·爱迪生还曾逃学,因为老师嫌他问的问题太多而经常鞭打他。
爱因斯坦一直到将近 9 岁才能流利地说话,学习成绩太差,有些人认为他都已经学不好了。
然而,这两个男孩的父母都相信他们。
他们坚持不懈地每天和儿子一起努力,孩子们也了解到,要想成功,就绝不要怕付出长期而艰辛的努力。
最终,爱因斯坦和爱迪生都摆脱了童年的困扰,进而作出了造福当今全世界的伟大发现。
再如亚伯拉罕·林肯这个英雄的典范,他一生面临了无数艰辛、失败和接二连三的不幸。

The glass castle1 I never believed in Santa Claus。
2 None of us kids did。
Mom and Dad refused to let us. They couldn't afford expensive presents,and they didn't want us to think we weren’t as good as other kids who, on Christmas morning, found all sorts of fancy toys under the tree that were supposedly left by Santa Claus. So they told us all about how other kids were deceived by their parents, how the toys the grown—ups claimed were made by little elves wearing bell caps in their workshop at the North Pole actually had labels on them saying MADE IN JAPAN.3 ”Try not to look down on those other children," Mom said。
”It's not their fault that they've been brainwashed into believing silly myths。
”4 We celebrated Christmas, but usually about a week after December 25, when you could find perfectly good bows and wrapping paper that people had thrown away and Christmas trees discarded on the roadside that still had most of their needles and even some silver tinsel hanging on them。

大学英语3课文翻译University English 3 Lesson TranslationThe text I have chosen for translation is titled "The Benefits of Physical Exercise". It discusses the numerous advantages of engaging in regular physical exercise.Physical exercise brings great benefits to our bodies and minds. To begin with, engaging in physical activities regularly helps to maintain a healthy body weight. It helps burn calories and fat, which can prevent obesity and related health problems. Moreover, exercise strengthens our muscles and joints, increasing our overall physical strength and flexibility.Regular exercise also plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy heart. When we engage in physical activities, our heart rate increases, and this strengthens the heart muscles. Strengthening the heart muscles prevents cardiovascular diseases and reduces the risk of high blood pressure.In addition, physical exercise has numerous mental benefits. First and foremost, exercise is known to improve our mood. When we engage in physical activities, our body releases endorphins, which are known as "feel-good" chemicals. These chemicals help reduce stress and anxiety, and they boost our mental well-being. Furthermore, regular exercise can also improve our cognitive functions. Studies have shown that physical activity improves memory, concentration, and overall brain function.Exercise is also beneficial for our immune system. Engaging inphysical activities boosts the production of white blood cells, which are vital for fighting off infections and diseases. Regular exercise also stimulates the release of toxins through sweat, which helps detoxify our bodies and strengthen our immune system.Lastly, physical exercise promotes better sleep. When we engage in regular physical activities, we tire out our bodies, making it easier for us to fall asleep and achieve a deeper sleep. This helps us feel more rested and rejuvenated in the morning.In conclusion, physical exercise brings numerous advantages to our bodies and minds. It helps maintain a healthy body weight, strengthens our muscles and joints, and plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy heart. Additionally, exercise improves our mood, cognitive functions, immune system, and sleep quality. Therefore, it is important to incorporate regular physical activities into our daily routines for a healthy and fulfilling life.。

大学英语第3册课文翻译篇1The Expensive Fantasy of Lord WilliamsTomintoul, Scotland —On Saturday night at The Grouse's Nest, they're still willing to raise a glass or two to “Lord Williams” though now his title prompts laughter. And now they just call him “Tony”.There are those in this beautiful village in the mountains of Scotland (population, 320) who say they were never quite sureabout Anthony Williams, the soft-spoken, wealthy noble who arrived in 1986 with his well-dressed wife.And there are others who say their suspicions were aroused over time, as the 55-year-old Mr. Williams, who appeared onweekends turned out in fine suits, bought up property after property, providing such a large injection of cash into the villagethat he single-handedly brought the community back to life.But no one could have possibly guessed the truth — that the man with endless money and a friendly manner was not a lordat all but a government employee living out a fantasy that he was a Scottish noble and paying for it by stealing funds fromScotland Yard.About two weeks ago, a regretful Mr. Williams, who had worked for the London police since 1959 and had risen to a £65,000 a year position as deputy director of finance, was brought into court and sentenced to seven and a half yearsinprison.Estimates are that he poured nearly £5 million of the stolen money into the village and gave jobs to 43 people. And nowthat he has fallen upon dark days at least some villagers are sticking by him.“I found him a very charming man, very friendly, considerate —not at all proud,” said Georgie McAllister, 70, themanager of the local museum whose family has been farming the surrounding hills for generations. “It's hard to understandhow a clever person like him could mislead people like that. It's sad. Of course, it did benefit the village. A lot of the propertieswere beautifully restored.”A few doors down the square, barber Donald Corr sat inside his shop and described how suspicions began to grow. “Everyonewondered where the money was coming from. Why was he spending it in a little place in the mountains? Christ, he wouldn'thave gotten it back in 100 ye ars.”According to the court, Mr. Williams stole more than £8 million over eight years. Most of it came from a secret fund thathad been placed under his sole authority and that was supposed to be used to pay spies and conduct secret activities againstthe Irish Republican Army.Instead, it went to create one more British lord.Mr. Williams bought an estate with a fine brick house in England. He bought a beautiful home with white walls and a poolin Spain. He bought noble titles at auctions, spending £95,000 to become the Lord of Chirnside, and then adding on 10 moreScottish titles.But most of all, he sunk his dishonest gains into this village that captured his heart with its fine stone cottages, its centralareaof green grass, green rows of hedges, and its fantastic view of rolling fields and pine forests disappearing into the distancelike the men of an ancient army marching over the horizon.He bought multiple cottages and fixed them up. He purchased the pub and made it into a fine place to have a glass ofGlenlivet Scotch whiskey, produced only 10 miles (16 kilometers) to the north. And most of all, he bought the run-downGordon Arms Hotel and totally restored it, transforming it from a mess into a glorious first-class hotel with 30 handsomelyfurnished rooms, wood-paneled stairs, false bookshelves with fake leather books and an outstanding restaurant.“I would offer him three choices of glasses for the restaurant: an average one, a poor one, and fine crystal. Always, he chosethe crystal. Nothing but the bes t,” said David Abdy, who was chosen by Mr. Williams to manage the construction work andrun the businesses.Mr. Williams deceived everyone, including Mr. Abdy and including even his own wife, telling them that he inherited themoney from a rich uncle. He was caught because his bank deposits were so large that they were noticed by the bank'smanagement.

⼤学英语3LectureNotes_U2(课⽂翻译)Electronic Teaching PortfolioBook ThreeUnit Two: LovePart I Get StartedSection A Discussion▇Sit in groups of threes or fours and discuss the following questions.1) Do you think love and marriage are important matters in our life? Why or why not?2) Dating and courtship is a common scene at college now. What do you think of it?3) What do you think are the most important factors that contribute to a stable love relationship? Give your reasons.▇ Answers for reference:1)Yes. It is human nature to feel attraction and affection between different sexes. A life without love is oftenregarded as imperfect. Those who are in love would long to stay together, and families resulting from love usually lay the foundation for a stable society.2)It’s OK to start dating at college, because college students are already grown-ups in the legal sense. Noone has the right to interfere in such private matters. However, students’ top priority at college is to study and acquire knowledge and skills for their future careers. Dating and courtship will interfere with their studies. Therefore, some students tend to hold themselves back even if there are opportunities to start a romantic relationship.3)Many factors may contribute to a stable love relationship. Wealth, social status, appearances, familybackground, etc. may be considered as the external factors, which may help promote a love relationship.Wisdom, knowledge, character, personalities, etc. are the internal factors. Love based on external factors alone may not last long. Love based on the internal factors will survive whatever challenges or crises it may encounter. When two persons are in love, they should respect each other and be honest and faithful to each other. In essence, trust and understanding are the key factors that contribute to a successful love relationship.Section B Quotes▇Study the following quotes about love. Which quote(s) do you like best? Why?⊙The course of true love never did run smooth.—— William Shakespeare Interpretation:Shakespeare believes that a true relationship is not easy to establish. People have different personalities, concepts of value, preferences of life style, etc. When two persons of the opposite sex develop a love relationship, they have to try their best to understand each other and reconcile with each other.William ShakespeareAbout William Shakespeare:William Shakespeare (1564-616): an English writer of plays and poems, who is generally regarded as the greatest of all English writers. His many famous plays include the tragedies Romeo and Juliet (《罗密欧与朱丽叶》), Hamlet (《哈姆雷特》), Julius Caesar (《裘⼒斯·凯撒》), Macbeth (《麦克⽩》), Othello (《奥瑟罗》), and King Lear (《李尔王》); the comedies A Midsummer Night’s Dream (《仲夏夜之梦》), Twelfth Night (《第⼗⼆夜》), and As You Like It(皆⼤欢喜》).⊙To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.—— Bertrand Russell Interpretation:Here Russell emphasizes the importance of an active attitude towards love. We should not be afraid to fall in love just because it is not easy to find true love or just because of any possible setbacks. A life without love is as dull as a dying man because he lacks the energy and passion to enjoy life.Bertrand RussellAbout Bertrand Russell:Bertrand Russell (1872-970): a British philosopher and mathematician who developed new ideas connecting mathematics and logic. He is also known for being a pacifist (和平主义者). He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950.⊙Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl — no superior alternative has yet been found.—— Sir Winston Churchill Interpretation:The quotation emphasizes that true love is the only basis upon which a happy family is built. Only when the man and the woman love each other dearly and devotedly can they endure trials and tribulations in their common effort to build up a happy family.Sir Winston ChurchillAbout Sir Winston Churchill:Sir Winston Churchill (1874-965): a British statesman, soldier, and author who was Prime Minister during most of World War II and again from 1951 to 1955. He is remembered and admired by most British people as a great leader who made possible Britain’s victory in the war. He is also famous for the many speeches he made during the war. In 1953 Churchill was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his writing and oratory (演讲术).⊙It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving.—— Mother Teresa Interpretation:The quotation tells us the significant role that love plays in everything we do in life. Whatever we do, we should put adequate love into it so that others can feel our love and be affected by our love. What we can offer to others may be insignificant, but as long as there is love in it, the benefit will be significant. Here, love isunderstood in a broad sense.Mother TeresaAbout Mother Teresa:Mother Teresa (1910-997): an Albanian (阿尔巴尼亚) Roman Catholic nun (修⼥) who lived in India, where she worked to help the poor and the sick in the city of Calcutta (加尔各答). She won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1979, and people think of her as a typical example of someone who is kind, unselfish, and morally good.

It’s just — it’s Bullshit. (Beth tries to hold back her tears. Neil looks stunned and goes to her.)NEIL: Where is this coming from?BETH: It’s coming from the place that I have been hiding from you for about five years.

The younger generation tends to be more hasty and selfish in building relationships.Part Four 13-14 The author advises young people to learn the essence of love and find ways to develop relationships into lifelong bonds.Section B In-Depth StudyLove is an overwhelming joy that is beyond description. It is human nature to yearn for and indulge in love, but true love takes a lot of understanding, much sharing and caring, and plenty of affection. What is true love? How deep is your love? The author shares her views with the younger generation on these questions.How Deep Is Your Love?Mansi Bhatia1Love to some is like a cloudTo some as strong as steelFor some a way of livingFor some a way to feelAnd some say love is holding onAnd some say let it goAnd some say love is everythingSome say they don’t know2 At some stage or the other in our lives we experience the gnawing pangs of an emotion which defies definition. It’s a feeling that can only be felt and not described. An overwhelming joy that comes together with its share of sadness. Love.3 Given the busy nature of our lives, it’s to be appreciated that we even find the time to ind ulge in matters of the heart.But at the same time I wonder if we even understand its true depth. I remember having countless crushes while in school. My math teacher, our neighbour’s son, my best friend’s brother and lots of others whom I fancied for the colour of their eyes, the shape of their moustaches or just the way they walked. Harmless puppy loves that are as brief as soap bubbles. I can laugh about all those silly and adventurous thoughts and acts now but at that time nothing could be more serious an affair for me. Then came the stage of real relationships.4 Being in an all girls’ school I hardly had the opportunity to interact with members of the opposite gender. Socials between our school and the boys’ college, therefore, would be awaited anxiously. Those three hours of unhesitant attention by a group of well-groomed young gentlemen provided us with enough content to talk and feel exhilarated about for the next four weeks.5 And even then there was no real need of having a boyfriend.6 I somehow grew up believing that love would happen when it had to. And sure enough it did. It came at an age when I hada career, a long-term plan and a more or less settled life (and now I am not yet 25!). I was mature enough to enter a relationship which demands a lot of give and not so much of take.7 Love was a magnificent building I built on the foundation of friendship. It took time to blossom. It took a lot of understanding, loads of sharing and caring, and plenty of affection to become what it is today. And it meant a meeting of minds. You might say that I belong to the traditional school of romance. But in my opinion, love needs to be nurtured. And it has to be distinguished from the intense but short-lived love or the pleasures of the flesh.8 Our p arents’ generation was fed lavishly with ideals. It was an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, the calmness, the shy glance—these areall so frequently remindful of a bygone era. An age when the distance between the sexes somehow managed to help preserve the holiness of love and relationships.9 The younger generation, with its openness and fading lines of proximity, has jumped on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities. What we have been exposed to via the media have fast paced our sensibilities so much that taking things slow requires effort on our parts.10 I am amazed when I hear stories of school kids bragging about the number of physical relationships they have had. I am horrified to learn that girls barely eighteen have already been in and out of seven to eight “hook ups”.11 I am sorry to learn about the kind of emotional baggage these kids are carrying in what are purely unemotional relationships. Some might blame the current state of affairs on peer pressure. But has anyone ever stopped to figure out where this peer pressure originates? Do any of us try and understand who is responsible for this shift? Does anyone bother to study the state of mind of the teenagers?12 The mindset of this generation is all too evident in the way it handles its personal life.There are more relationships being distorted under the pressures of lust than ever before. There is more focus on physical beauty than on inner charm. There is more of closeness and less of intimacy. There is more of passion and less of emotion. There is more of acquiring and less of sharing. There is more of opportunism and less of selflessness.In short, there is more of ME and less of US.13 We have hardened ourselves so much in this competitive age that we have forgotten the essence of relationships. There’s much more to being someone’s lover than gifting them red roses and fifty-cent cards. What about gifting our object of affection, our time, our company, our support, our friendship? What about setting priorities in our lives and focusing on each with sincerity? What about trying to be self-sufficient emotionally before letting ourselves loose? What about giving ourselves, and others, time and space to forge relationships? What about working towards meaningful and lasting friendships? What about honouring our commitments? What about channeling our energies and emotions towards building lifelong bonds ratherthan wasting them on seasonal relationships?14 We have but one life and we must experience everything that can make us stronger. True love happens once in a lifetime. And we should not have become so tired by our frivolous acts that when it comes we aren’t able to receive it with open arms.▇课⽂参考译⽂你的爱有多深曼茜·巴蒂亚1 有⼈认为爱如浮云有⼈认为爱坚强如铁有⼈认为爱是⼀种⽣活⽅式有⼈认为爱是⼀种感觉有⼈说爱要执着有⼈说爱不要约束有⼈说爱是⽣命的全部有⼈说不知道爱为何物2 在我们⽣命中的某个阶段,我们会经历某种难以名状的情感所带来的阵阵折磨。

Unit 1 Personality羞怯的痛苦对许多人来说,羞怯是很多不愉快的起因。
各种各样的人——矮的、高的、愚笨的、聪明的、年轻的、年老的、瘦的、胖的——都说自己是羞怯的。
羞怯的人会焦虑不安,感到不自然;也就是说,他们过分地关注自己的外表和举止。
脑海中不断盘旋着一些使自己不安的想法:我给人留下的是什么印象?他们喜欢我吗?我讲话是不是傻里傻气?我长得难看。
我穿的衣服毫不引人注目。
很显然这种不安的感觉会对人产生不利的影响。
一个人的自我看法反映在自己的行为方式之中,而一个人的行为方式又影响他人的反应。
通常,人们如何看待自己对他们生活的各个方面都会产生深刻的影响。
例如,具有积极的自我价值观或很强自尊心的人往往表现出自信。
而由于自信,他们不需要他人不断地称赞和鼓励,也能使自己感觉良好。
自信者热情、自发地投入生活。
他们不因别人认为他们“该”做什么而受到影响。
有很强自尊心的人不会被批评所伤害;他们不会把批评看作是人身攻击。
相反,他们认为批评是一种提醒他们改进的建议。
相比之下,羞怯的人自尊心较弱,往往消极被动并且容易受他人影响。
他们(是否)在做“该做的事情”需要得到别人的肯定。
害羞的人对批评非常敏感;他们觉得批评正好证实了他们比别人差。
他们也很难因别人的赞美而高兴,因为他们相信自己不值得称赞。
羞怯的人也许会用这样的话来回答别人的赞美之辞:“你这么说只是为了让我感觉好一些。
我知道这不是真的。
”显然,尽管自我意识是一种健康的品质,过分的自我意识却是不利和有害的。
能否彻底消除或者至少减轻羞怯感呢?幸运的是,人们能够通过坚持不懈的努力建立自信从而克服羞怯。
由于胆怯和缺少自尊是密切相关的,因此正视自己的弱点和正视自己的优点一样重要。
例如,大多数人希望每门功课都得A。
如果仅仅因为在某些领域有困难,就把自己列为差生,这不恰如其分。
人们对自己的期望必须现实。
老是想那些不可能的事情会令自己觉得无能,甚至产生嫉妒。
当我们嫉妒比自己成绩好的学生时,我们正在自我否定。

It is human nature to yearn for and indulge in love, but true love takes a lot of understanding, much sharing and caring, and plenty of affection. What is true love? How deep is your love? The author shares her views with the younger generation on these questions.How Deep Is Your Love?Mansi Bhatia1Love to some is like a cloudTo some as strong as steelFor some a way of livingFor some a way to feelAnd some say love is holding onAnd some say let it goAnd some say love is everythingSome say they don’t know2 At some stage or the other in our lives we experience the gnawing pangs of an emotion which defies definition. It’s a feeling that can only be felt and not described. An overwhelming joy that comes together with its share of sadness. Love.3 Given the busy nature of our lives, it’s to be appreciated that we even find the time to ind ulge in matters of the heart.But at the same time I wonder if we even understand its true depth. I remember having countless crushes while in school. My math teacher, our neighbour’s son, my best friend’s brother and lots of others whom I fancied for the colour of their eyes, the shape of their moustaches or just the way they walked. Harmless puppy loves that are as brief as soap bubbles. I can laugh about all those silly and adventurous thoughts and acts now but at that time nothing could be more serious an affair for me. Then came the stage of real relationships.4 Being in an all girls’ school I hardly had the opportunity to interact with members of the opposite gender. Socials between our school and the boys’ college, therefore, would be awaited anxiously. Those three hours of unhesitant attention by a group of well-groomed young gentlemen provided us with enough content to talk and feel exhilarated about for the next four weeks.5 And even then there was no real need of having a boyfriend.6 I somehow grew up believing that love would happen when it had to. And sure enough it did. It came at an age when I had a career, a long-term plan and a more or less settled life (and now I am not yet 25!). I was mature enough to enter a relationship which demands a lot of give and not so much of take.7 Love was a magnificent building I built on the foundation of friendship. It took time to blossom. It took a lot of understanding, loads of sharing and caring, and plenty of affection to become what it is today. And it meant a meeting of minds. You might say that I belong to the traditional school of romance. But in my opinion, love needs to be nurtured. And it has to be distinguished from the intense but short-lived love or the pleasures of the flesh.8 Our p arents’ generation was fed lavishly with ideals. It was an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, the calmness, the shy glance—these are all so frequently remindful of a bygone era. An age when the distance between the sexes somehow managed to help preserve the holiness of love and relationships.9 The younger generation, with its openness and fading lines of proximity, has jumped on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities. What we have been exposed to via the media have fast paced our sensibilities so much that taking things slow requires effort on our parts.10 I am amazed when I hear stories of school kids bragging about the number of physical relationships they have had. I am horrified to learn that girls barely eighteen have already been in and out of seven to eight “hook ups”.11 I am sorry to learn about the kind of emotional baggage these kids are carrying in what are purely unemotional relationships. Some might blame the current state of affairs on peer pressure. But has anyone ever stopped to figure out where this peer pressure originates? Do any of us try and understand who is responsible for this shift? Does anyone bother to study the state of mind of the teenagers?12 The mindset of this generation is all too evident in the way it handles its personal life.There are more relationships being distorted under the pressures of lust than ever before. There is more focus on physical beauty than on inner charm. There is more of closeness and less of intimacy. There is more of passion and less of emotion. There is more of acquiring and less of sharing. There is more of opportunism and less of selflessness.In short, there is more of ME and less of US.13 We have hardened ourselves so much in this competitive age that we have forgotten the essence of relationships. There’s much more to being someone’s lover than gifting them red roses and fifty-cent cards. What about gifting our object of affection, our time, our company, our support, our friendship? What about setting priorities in our lives and focusing on each with sincerity? What about trying to be self-sufficient emotionally before letting ourselves loose? What about giving ourselves, and others, time and space to forge relationships? What about working towards meaningful and lasting friendships? What about honouring our commitments? What about channeling our energies and emotions towards building lifelong bonds ratherthan wasting them on seasonal relationships?14 We have but one life and we must experience everything that can make us stronger. True love happens once in a lifetime. And we should not have become so tired by our frivolous acts that when it comes we aren’t able to receive it with open arms.▇课文参考译文你的爱有多深曼茜·巴蒂亚1 有人认为爱如浮云有人认为爱坚强如铁有人认为爱是一种生活方式有人认为爱是一种感觉有人说爱要执着有人说爱不要约束有人说爱是生命的全部有人说不知道爱为何物2 在我们生命中的某个阶段,我们会经历某种难以名状的情感所带来的阵阵折磨。
