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。

After-Class Reading迟做总比不做好1他躺在草从中，躲在那儿，同时思索着。
2他研究了这个小女孩的习惯。
他知道下午三点左右她会从外祖父的房子里出来玩耍。
3他为此举痛恨自己。
4在他悲惨的一生中，他还从来没有考虑过任何像绑架这样冷酷无情的事情。
5然而此时此刻他却躺在草丛里，被树木遮掩着，房了里的人看不见他。
他正等待着一个天真无邪、红头发、两岁人的小女孩向他走近。
6这是一次漫长的等待；有时间进行思考。
7可能在哈伦德的一生中，一切都太过匆忙。
85岁的时候，他那当农民的山地人父亲就去世了。
9 14岁的时候，他就从格林伍徳屮学辍学，开始到处流浪。
10他做过农场的临时工，但他不喜欢那工作。
11他尝试做过公共汽车的售票员，但也不喜欢那工作。
12在16岁的时候，他谎报年龄参了军——可他也不喜欢当兵。
在一年的服役期满后，他前往阿拉巴马州，在那儿试着做铁匠，但没有成功。
13 （后来）他成了南方铁路公司的恢路机车司炉工。
他喜欢那工作，以为自己找到了真正的自我。
14在18岁的时候，他结了婚。
谁知道没几个月，就在他说自己又被解雇了的那一天，他妻子说她怀孕了。
15接着，有一天，当他外出找工作的时候，他年轻的妻子散尽他们所有的家产回娘家去了。
16接下来就是经济萧条时期。
17正如人们所说的那样，哈伦德失去得太多，赢不回来了。
18他确实努力了。
19 一度，当他在铁路上不断地打各种零工的时候，他尝试过通过函授学习法律。
20但他也半途而废了。
21他尝试过卖保险、卖轮胎。
22他尝试过开渡轮，经营加汕站，但都没有用。
23面对现实吧——哈伦徳是一个失败者。
24他现在正躲在列吉尼亚州罗阿诺克郊外的杂草从里，筹划一次绑架。
25就如我所说的，他已经观察过这个小女孩的习惯，知道她下午玩耍的时间。
26但是，这一天，小女孩却没有出来玩，所以他那失败之链依旧没有中断。
27在他后来的生活中，他成了科尔宾一家餐馆的主厨和刷瓶工。
一切都挺好，直到冇一天新的公路绕餐馆而过。

生而成功任何事都不可能由别人来教你，只能在别人的帮助下靠自己去发现。
---伽利略每个人生来都是独特的，一个先前从未存在过的崭新的个体。
每个人天生具有要在生活中赢得成功的能力。
每一个正常人都可以观察，倾听，触摸，体味，并且思考自己的事情。
每个人都有自己的潜在性—能力和局限性。
每个人都可以凭自己的努力成为举足轻重、会思考、明事理、和创造性成果颇多的人，即一个成功者。
成功者和失败者这两个词有多种意思。
当我们把一个人成为成功者时，我们所指的并不是那种通过优势控制他人、令其失败而获得成功的人。
而是一个做出真诚回应的人，无论是作为个体还是社会的成员他都值得信赖、行动迅速。
失败者是一个未能作出真诚回应的人。
很少有人是绝对的成功者或失败者。
这（成败）只是个程度的问题。
然而，当一个人一旦具备了成为成功者的能力时，（他）经常获得成功的可能性就会更大。
对成功者来说成就并不是最重要的，最重要的是真诚。
一个真诚的人知道自己的独特之处，同时也尊重他人的独特性。
成功者不惮于独立思考,也不惮于独立运用知识。
他能够区分哪些是事实,哪些是观点，同时并不宣称洞察一切。
他倾听他人的意见，琢磨他们的话语，却能得出自己的结论。
成功者能灵活变通。
他遇事不会采用已有的、刻板的方式行事。
他会根据形势的需要相应地变更计划。
成功者热爱生活。
他乐于工作、喜爱游玩、享受美食、欣赏他人和大自然带来的乐趣。
他享受成功的乐趣而问心无愧;他分享他人的成就而心无芥蒂。
成功者关心天下、关注他人。
他关注社会上普遍存在的问题。
他努力提高生活质量，即使面对国内或国际上的难题，他也不会感到无能为力。
他竭尽力之所能，使这个世界变得更美好。
即使人们生来注定会成功，但也是生来就要完全依赖于周围环境的。
成功者顺利地完成从依赖到独立的转变。
失败者则没有做到这一点。
在这一过程的某个时候失败者开始回避独立。
这种情况通常始于童年时期。
营养不良、非人道待遇、不愉快的人际关系、疾病、长期的失望、以及身体护理不足等经历都会促使人们称为失败者。

第一单元，羞怯的痛苦1 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，他们显而易见地关注自己的外表和举止。
脑海中不断地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。
2 很显然这种不安的感觉会对人们产生不利的影响。
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的自尊心的人往往表现自信。
由于自信，他们不需要他人不断地称赞和鼓励使自己感觉良好。
自信者热情地自发地投身生活。
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要他们改进的建议。
3 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；他们觉得批评却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的、有害的。
4 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，因此正视自己的优点还有弱点非常重要。
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与现实相符。
老是想那些不可能的事情会觉得自己能力差，甚至产生嫉妒。
当我们嫉妒比自己成绩好的学生时，我们正在自我毁灭。

Unit 3 Born to WinBorn to WinYou cannot teach a man anything. You can only help him discover it within himself.— Galileo[1] Each human being is born as something unique , something that never existed before. Each person is born with what he needs to win at life. A normal person can see, hear, touch, taste, and think for himself. Each has his own unique potentials —his capabilities and limitations. Each can be an important, thinking, aware, and creatively productive person in his own right — a winner.[2] The words “winner” and “loser” have many meanings. When we refer to a person as a winner, we do not mean one who defeats the other person by dominating and making him lose. Instead a winner is one who responds genuinely by being trustworthy and responsive , both as an individual and as a member of a society. A loser is one who fails to respond genuinely.[3] Few people are winners or losers all the time. It's a matter of degree . However, once a person has the capacity to be a winner, his chances are greater for becoming even more so…[4] Achievement is not the most important thing for winners; genuineness is. The genuine person realizes his own uniqueness and appreciates the uniqueness of others.[5] A winner is not afraid to do his own thinking and to use his own knowledge. He can separate facts from opinion and doesn't pretend to have all the answers. He listens to others, evaluates what they say, but comes to his own conclusions.[6] A winner is flexible . He does not have to respond in known, rigid ways. He can change his plans when the situation calls for it. A winner has a love for life. He enjoys work, play, food, other people, and the world of nature. Without guilt he enjoys his own accomplishments. Without envy he enjoys the accomplishments of others.[7] A winner cares about the world and its people. He is not separated from the general problems of society. He tries to improve the quality of life. Even in the face of national and international difficulty, he does not see himself as helpless . He does what he can to make the world a better place.[8] Although people are born to win, they are also born totally dependent on their environment. Winners successfully make the change from dependence to independence . Losers do not. Somewhere along the line losers begin to avoid becoming independent . This usually begins in childhood. Poor nutrition , cruelty , unhappy relationships, disease, continuing disappointments, and inadequate physical care are among the manyexperiences that contribute to making people losers.[9] A loser is held back by his low capacity to appropriately express himself through a full range of possible behavior. He may be unaware of other choices for his life if the path he chooses goes nowhere. He is afraid to try new things. He repeats not only his own mistakes and often repeats those of his family and culture.[10] A loser has difficulty giving and receiving love. He does not enter into close, honest, direct relationships with others. Instead, he tries to manipulate them into living up to his expectations and channels his energies into living up to their expectations.生而成功任何事都不可能由别人来教你，只能在别人的帮助下靠自己去发现。

新编大学英语第二版第三册编著：浙江大学出版社：外语教学与研究出版社第一单元羞怯的痛苦1 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，他们显而易见地关注自己的外表和举止。
脑海中不断地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。
2 很显然这种不安的感觉会对人们产生不利的影响。
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的自尊心的人往往表现自信。
由于自信，他们不需要他人不断地称赞和鼓励使自己感觉良好。
自信者热情地自发地投身生活。
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要他们改进的建议。
3 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；他们觉得批评却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的、有害的。
4 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，因此正视自己的优点还有弱点非常重要。
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与现实相符。
老是想那些不可能的事情会觉得自己能力差，甚至产生嫉妒。

5 In between such chores, I manage to spend 50 to 60 hours a week at the typewriter or doing reporting for the freelance articles I sell to magazines and newspapers. Sandy, meanwhile, pursues her own demanding schedule. Besides the usual household routine, she oversees the garden and beehives, bakes bread, cans and freezes, drives the kids to their music lessons, practices with them, takes organ lessons on her own, does research and typing for me, writes an article herself now and then, tends the flower beds, stacks a little wood and delivers the eggs. There is, as the old saying goes, no rest for the wicked on a place like this -- and not much for the virtuous either. 在这些活计之间，我每周要抽空花五、六十个小时，不是打字撰文，就是为作为自由撰稿人投给报刊的文章进行采访。桑迪则有她自己繁忙的工作日程。除了日常的家务，她还照管菜园和蜂房，烘烤面包，将食品装罐、冷藏，开车送孩子学音乐，和他们一起练习，自己还要上风琴课，为我做些研究工作并打字，自己有时也写写文章，还要侍弄花圃，堆摞木柴、运送鸡蛋。正如老话说的那样，在这种情形之下，坏人不得闲――贤德之人也歇不了。

Unit 3 Born to WinBorn to WinYou cannot teach a man anything. You can only help him discover it within himself.— Galileo[1] Each human being is born as something unique , something that never existed before. Each person is born with what he needs to win at life. A normal person can see, hear, touch, taste, and think for himself. Each has his own unique potentials —his capabilities and limitations. Each can be an important, thinking, aware, and creatively productive person in his own right — a winner.[2] The words “winner” and “loser” have many meanings. When we refer to a person as a winner, we do not mean one who defeats the other person by dominating and making him lose. Instead a winner is one who responds genuinely by being trustworthy and responsive , both as an individual and as a member of a society. A loser is one who fails to respond genuinely.[3] Few people are winners or losers all the time. It's a matter of degree . However, once a person has the capacity to be a winner, his chances are greater for becoming even more so…[4] Achievement is not the most important thing for winners; genuineness is. The genuine person realizes his own uniqueness and appreciates the uniqueness of others.[5] A winner is not afraid to do his own thinking and to use his own knowledge. He can separate facts from opinion and doesn't pretend to have all the answers. He listens to others, evaluates what they say, but comes to his own conclusions.[6] A winner is flexible . He does not have to respond in known, rigid ways. He can change his plans when the situation calls for it. A winner has a love for life. He enjoys work, play, food, other people, and the world of nature. Without guilt he enjoys his own accomplishments. Without envy he enjoys the accomplishments of others.[7] A winner cares about the world and its people. He is not separated from the general problems of society. He tries to improve the quality of life. Even in the face of national and international difficulty, he does not see himself as helpless . He does what he can to make the world a better place.[8] Although people are born to win, they are also born totally dependent on their environment. Winners successfully make the change from dependence to independence . Losers do not. Somewhere along the line losers begin to avoid becoming independent . This usually begins in childhood. Poor nutrition , cruelty , unhappy relationships, disease, continuing disappointments, and inadequate physical care are among the manyexperiences that contribute to making people losers.[9] A loser is held back by his low capacity to appropriately express himself through a full range of possible behavior. He may be unaware of other choices for his life if the path he chooses goes nowhere. He is afraid to try new things. He repeats not only his own mistakes and often repeats those of his family and culture.[10] A loser has difficulty giving and receiving love. He does not enter into close, honest, direct relationships with others. Instead, he tries to manipulate them into living up to his expectations and channels his energies into living up to their expectations.生而成功任何事都不可能由别人来教你，只能在别人的帮助下靠自己去发现。

新编大学英语3 第三单元课文翻译
After-class Reading Passage参考译文挂着钥匙的小孩––––笃，笃，有人在家吗？1 在美国过去的几十年中，生活开支一直在持续上升。
食品价格、服装开支、住房开支以及学费不断增高。
母亲们已经不再扮演专职家庭主妇的传统角色，这在一定程度上是出于经济上的需要，一定程度上也是为了使自己有一种成就感。
她们越来越多地在从事着家庭以外的带薪水的工作。
2 这样重大的角色转换影响到整个家庭，尤其是小孩。
某些后果是显而易见的。
例如，晚饭时间推迟了。
然而，这种转变对感情上的影响更为微妙。
母亲们早上带着负疚感离开家，因为孩子放学回家时她们不能在家等候。
她们压抑着负疚心理，因为相信从长远来看这份工作对大家都有利。
她们的收入能够使家庭积攒起孩子的大学学费、全家度一个更长的假期、买一辆新车，等等。
3 孩子们在感情上所受到的影响是很大的。
孩子们普遍感到受了伤害，有怨恨情绪。
毕竟有好几个小时他们要独自呆在家里，而他们觉得母亲应该“在那儿”等着他们。
他们也许会需要母亲帮他们完成家庭作业，或是想把一天里的活动说给母亲听。
然而十分常见的情况是：母亲们回到家里已经疲惫不堪，又面临着一个紧迫的任务––––做饭。
她们的首要任务是为全家人做晚饭，而不是放松地聊天。
4 挂钥匙的孩子们的年龄从6岁到13岁不等。
每天他们放学回家，用挂在自己脖子上的钥匙打开家门。
然后就独自呆在安安静静、空空荡荡的房间里。
对于某些孩子来说，这是一段属于他们自己的有所作为的时间，而对于另一些孩子来说则是令人恐惧的、孤独的空虚。
为了安全的原因，许多父母不允许他们的孩子出去玩或是让别的孩子来家玩。
因此这些孩子有一种被隔离的感觉。
5 接受采访的挂钥匙的孩子们的反应不同。
一些孩子说每天有几个小时让他们独自呆在家里培养了或者说激发了他们的独立意识和责任感。
他们觉得受到了关爱与信任，而且这种感觉增强了他们的自信心。
（挂钥匙的）女孩子们通过观察母亲们如何对付家庭与工作中的难处而学习了职业母亲的行为榜样。

Book 3 Unit 1善良之心，久久相依当时我没有意识到，是爸爸帮我保持平衡奥古斯塔斯• J •布洛克1 随着我渐渐长大，当别人看见我和爸爸在一起，我会觉得很尴尬。
他身材矮小，走起路来跛得很厉害。
我们一起走时，他要把手搭在我的肩上才能保持平衡，人们就会盯着我们看。
对这种不必要的注意我觉得非常难堪。
他也许曾注意到，或着觉得烦恼，但他从来没有流露出来。
2 要协调我们的步伐并不容易，他(的步子)一瘸一拐的，我(走起来)则缺乏耐心。
因此，我们走路的时候并不怎么说话。
但出发时，他总是说：“你定步伐，我会尽量跟上。
”3 我们通常在家和地铁之间来往，这是他上班的必由之路。
不管生病还是碰到恶劣的天气他都去上班，几乎没有旷过一天工。
即使别人无法上班，他也要去办公室。
对他来说这是一种自豪。
4 当地上有冰或雪的时候，即使有人帮助他也无法走路。
这时，我或者我的姐妹就用孩子玩的雪撬拉着他，穿过纽约布鲁克林的街道，直到地铁的入口处。
一到那儿，他就能紧紧抓住扶手一直走下去, 地铁道里比较暖和，下面的楼梯不结冰。
曼哈顿的地铁站正好是他办公楼的地下室，因此除了从布鲁克林我们去接他的地方到回家为止，他都不用再出去。
5 一个成年男子要有多少勇气才能承受这种屈辱和压力，我现在想来惊讶不已。
他从没有痛苦或抱怨，他是怎么做到这一步的我感到不可思议。
6 他从不把自己当作同情的对象，也从不对更幸运的或更能干的人表示任何嫉妒。
他在别人身上所寻找的是一颗“善心”。
如果他找到了一颗善心，那么有这么颗心的人对他来说就是一位大好人了。
7 由于年龄的增长，我相信那是一种用来判断人的恰当的标准，尽管我还不能精确地知道什么是一颗“善心”。
但是，当我自己没有的时候，我是知道的。
8 尽管很多活动我爸爸不能参加，但他还是尽量用某种方式参与。
当本地的一支棒球队发现缺经理的时候，他使它维持下去。
他是一个很懂行的棒球迷，经常带我去埃贝茨球场看布鲁克林的道奇队打球。
他喜欢参加舞会和聚会，就是坐在一旁观看，也很开心。
Unit-3-Social-Problems新编大学英语第二版第三册课文翻译
Unit-3-Social-Problems新编大学英语第二版第三册课文翻译Unit 3 Social ProblemsLatchkey Children—Knock, Knock, IsAnybody Home?In the United States the cost of living has been steadily rising for the past few decades. Food prices, clothing costs, housing expenses, and tuition fees are constantly getting higher and higher. Partly because of financial need, and partly because of career choices for personal fulfillment, mothers have been leaving the traditional role of full-time homemaker. Increasingly they have been taking salaried jobs outside the home.Making such a significant role change affects the entire family, especially the children. Some consequences are obvious. For example, dinnertime is at a later hour. The emotional impact, on the other hand,can be more subtle. Mothers leave home in the morning, feeling guilty because they will not be home when their children return from school. They suppress their guilt since they believe that their work will benefit everyone in the long run. The income will enable the family to save for college tuition, take an extended vacation, buy a new car, and so on.The emotional impact on the children can be significant. It is quite common for children to feel hurt and resentful. After all, they are alone several hours, and they feel that their mothers should "be there" for them. They might need assistance with their homework or want to share the day's activities. All too often, however, the mothers arrive home exhausted and face the immediate task of preparing dinner. Their priority is making theencouraged them to be self-confident. Latchkey girls, by observing how their mothers coped with the demands of a family and a job, learned the role model of a working mother. Some children stated that they used their unsupervised free time to perfect their athletic skills, such as playing basketball. Others read books or practiced a musical instrument. These children looked upon their free time after school as an opportunity for personal development. It led to positive, productive, and valuable experiences.Conversely, many latchkey children expressed much bitterness, resentment, and anger for being made to live in this fashion. Many claimed that too much responsibility was placed on them at an early age; it was an overwhelming burden. They were little people whoreally wanted to be protected, encouraged, and cared for through attention from their mothers. Coming home to an empty house was disappointing, lonely, and often frightening. They felt abandoned by their mothers. After all, it seemed to them that most other children had "normal" families whose mothers were "around," whereas their own mothers were never home. Many children turned on the television for the whole afternoon day after day, in order to diminish feelings of isolation; furthermore, the voices were comforting. Frequently, they would doze off.Because of either economic necessity or strong determination for personal fulfillment, or both, the phenomenon of latchkey children is widespread in our society. Whatever thereason, it is a compelling situation with which families must cope. The question to ask is not whether or not mothers should work full-time. Given the reality of the situation, the question to ask is: how can an optimum plan be worked out to deal effectively with the situation.It is advisable for all members of the family to express their feelings and concerns about the inevitable change candidly. These remarks should be discussed fully. Many factors must be taken into consideration: the children's personality and maturity, the amount of time the children will be alone, the safety of the neighborhood, accessibility of help in case of an emergency. Of supreme importance is the quality of the relationship between parents and children. It is most important that the children be secure in the knowledge that they are loved. Feeling lovedprovides invaluable emotional strength to cope successfully with almost any difficulty that arises in life.挂钥匙的孩子——笃、笃，家里有人吗？在过去的几十年中，美国的生活费用一直在持续增长。

新编大学英语第二版第三册第三单元课文翻译编著：浙江大学出版社：外语教学与研究出版社挂钥匙的孩子——笃、笃，家里有人吗？在过去的几十年中，美国的生活费用一直在持续增长。
食品价格。
服装费用、房子开销和学费都越来越高。
母亲们纷纷放弃传统的全职家庭主妇的角色，这一部分是由于经济需要，一部分是想通过工作取得成就感。
她们越来越多地从事家庭以外的有薪水的工作。
如此重大的角色转换影响着整个家庭，尤其是孩子们。
某些后果是非常明显的。
例如，晚饭时间推迟了。
而另一方面，这种转变对情感的影响就更微妙了。
母亲们早上带着愧疚感离开家，因为孩子放学回来时她们会不在家。
她们压抑着愧疚心理，因为她们相信她们的工作从长远来讲对大家有益。
她们的收入将能够使家庭存下钱来供孩子上大学。
度一次长假、买辆新车，等等。
孩子们在情感上所受到的影响是很大的。
通常，孩子会感到受伤和愤怒。
毕竟，他们一个人呆几个小时，他们感到他们的母亲应该“在那儿”等着他们。
他们可能需要有人帮他们完成作业，或者想把一天的活动说给母亲听。
然而，母亲们通常筋疲力尽地回到家，又要面临一个紧迫的任务——准备晚饭。
她们的首要任务是给全家人做晚饭，而不是轻松的聊天。
挂钥匙的孩子年龄从六岁到十三岁不等。
每天，他们放学回家，用挂在脖子上的钥匙打开门，独自一人，孤孤单单地呆在安静而空荡荡的屋子里。
对某些孩子来说，这段个人时间是很有所作为的，而对于另外一些孩子，却是令人害怕的孤单的空虚。
由于安全原因，很多父母不允许孩子出去玩，或带客人到家里来。
因此，孩子们感到一种被隔离的感觉。
被采访的挂钥匙的孩子们反应不同。
一些孩子说，每天自己呆上几个小时培养或激发了他们的独立意识和责任心。
他们感到被爱、被信任，并且这一感觉鼓励他们自信。
挂钥匙的女孩子通过观察母亲如何持家和工作，学习了职业母亲的行为榜样。
一些孩子称他们利用这段不受监督的自由时间来提高他们的运动技能，如打篮球。
还有一些孩子读书或练习乐器。
这些孩子把放学后的自由时间看作个人发展的机会。
这段时间带给了他们积极的、有成就的宝贵的经历。
相反，也有很多挂钥匙的孩子因为不得不以这种方式生活而表现出诸多的痛苦、怨恨和愤怒。
很多孩子称在很小的年龄，他们就被赋予了太多的责任；这是他们所无法承受的负担。
他们还是小孩，非常需要母亲的保护、鼓励和细心照顾。
回到空荡荡的家令人失望、孤单并且通常很恐惧。
他们感到被母亲所抛弃。
毕竟，对他们来说，似乎其他的孩子都有着“正常的”家庭，母亲都“在身边”，而他们自己的母亲却从不在家。
很大孩子每天整个下午开着电视，只是为了消除孤独感；此外，电视的声音也是令人安慰的。
通常，他们就这样睡着了。
或者是因为经济需要，或者是实现个人价值的坚定的决心，或者两者兼有，挂钥匙的孩子的现象在我们的社会是普遍存在的。
无论是什么原因，这是一个急迫的、众多家庭必须解决的局面。
问题不在于母亲们是否应该全职工作。
考虑到这一现象的实施状况，要提出的问题是：如何才能制定合适的计划有效地应对这种局面。
可行的做法是：对于这一不可避免的变化，家庭所有成员应该坦诚地表达他们的感受和忧虑，并予以充分的讨论。
很多因素必须被考虑在内：孩子的性格和成熟程度，孩子将独自在家的时间的长短，家庭周围是否安全，紧急情况下能否得到救助。
父母与孩子的融洽度是最重要的。
要让孩子们放心他们的父母是爱他们的，，也是很重要的。
感到被爱给与了孩子们宝贵的情感力量，使他们能够克服生活中的诸多困难。
After-class Reading曼哈顿抢劫犯的计谋马丁在纽约住了四十年，从没被抢过。
这并没有让他很放心，相反，这令他很害怕。
在他看来，他是曼哈顿下一个最有可能被抢的人。
“我被抢的可能性有多大？”他问他的朋友列尼。
“你想赌多少钱？”列尼说，那是个非常爱赌的人。
“得了吧，这么重要的事情，也能打赌！”“没有什么事重要到不能赌的，”列尼吃惊地说道。
这成为他们友谊的结束。
“你觉得我怎么样可以不被抢呢？”马丁问他的朋友格蕾丝。
格蕾丝曾经五年没有出公寓门，以为这就肯定不会被抢了。
不过也失败了，有人入室抢劫。
“我不知道，马丁，”她说，“不过这帮家伙大多吸毒，他们需要钱满足毒瘾。
”这让马丁有了一个主意，如果那些抢劫的人只是需要钱来买毒品，那何不提供毒品给他们呢？通过一些有钱的朋友，他买了一点儿海洛因和可卡因。
他自己从没碰过这些东西，因此，他不得不很小心地给它们贴上标签，以确定自己不会搞混。
一天，他正在中央公园走着，他不该走到有草有树的那片地方的，三个人跳到他面前。
一个黑人，一个波多黎各人和一个白人。
哦，她想，至少在抢劫方面已经民族融合了。
“你们是要毒品吗？”他喊道，“我有！想要什么都行。
告诉我就行。
但是别碰我！”三个人很敬重地放开了他。
“我们差点犯了大错，”其中一个说道，“这家伙是毒贩子。
伤了他，我们就会惹上黑手党了。
让我们看看你的货吧，先生。
”马丁惊人地发现自己在向客户展示商品。
令他更吃惊的是，他发现自己在收他们的钱，比他买来时多得多的钱。
“你们怎么会有这么多钱？”他问，“既然有钱，为什么还要打劫呢？”“恩，其实我们不是真正的抢劫犯，”高加索人有点不自然，“我们是失业的演员。
”“我以为演艺圈事业的人都会去做服务员或者酒吧招待员。
”马丁说道。
“是的。
但是现在艺人在餐饮业的人太多了，找不到服务员的工作了。
因此，我们只好抢劫了。
”马丁回到家后，从朋友那里买了更多的毒品。
不久就卖给了更多的劫匪。
不久之后，他便发现自己贩毒的时间越来越多了，钱也越赚越多了。
害怕被劫使他成为了一名职业的毒品贩子。
一天，又有一个人跳到他面前，突然抓住他。
“你要毒品吗？”马丁说道，“我有。
”“我要钱。
”一个熟悉的声音说道。
“列尼！”马丁叫道，“你现在怎么样啦？”“很糟，”列尼说，“我赌博输光了。
”他击中了马丁的头，拿走了他的钱、皮夹和信用卡，只留下了一小包一小包的白粉。
小偷他第一次注意到那位年轻女子是在机场售票处排队买票的时候。
她闪亮的黑发在脑后紧紧地盘了个髻——男士想象着头发散下来一定可以垂到她的腰部——她身穿皮衣，肩上挎着一个沉甸甸的黑包包。
她脚上穿着黑色的软皮靴。
他很想看清楚她的脸（可她排在他正前边），直到他买了票，转身离开时，他才完全看到了她的美丽，白皙的皮肤、黑黑的眼睛、饱满的嘴唇，令他心跳加快。
她似乎意识到他正盯着她，连忙垂下了目光。
售票员打断了他。
男士没再盯着那个女子，买了一张到一个东部城市的往返经济舱票——他想她可能有二十五岁。
他乘坐的班级将在一小时后起飞。
为了打发时间，男士进了一个机场的鸡尾酒吧，要了杯加水的苏格兰威士忌。
他边抿着酒，边看着机场的人流，其中不少穿着时尚的未婚美女——直到他又看到了那个穿着皮衣的黑发女孩。
她正站在一个旅客咨询处旁，和另一个女孩聊得开心，那个女孩金发碧眼，穿着一件镶着灰色皮毛的全棉外套。
不知怎么的，他想吸引这个黑发女孩的注意，无论她要到哪儿去，他想在她离开前邀请她一起喝杯酒，但是尽管他一度认为她正在朝他这边看过来，他却不能透过暮色的酒吧与她的目光相遇。
过了一会儿，两个女子分开了；不过两个人都没朝他这边走。
他又要了杯威士忌。
他又看到她时，他在买杂志，准备在飞机上看的，他觉得有人在推他。
起初，他很奇怪会有人离他那么近，碰到他，可当他看到是谁的时候，挤出一个笑容。
“这里太挤了。
”他说。
她抬头看了看他——她脸红了吗？奇怪的表情在她的嘴角一闪而过。
她从他身边走开，汇入了机场的人群之中。
男士还拿着杂志站在柜台边，但当他伸手到后面口袋拿钱包时却发现口袋空了。
会在哪儿丢的呢？他想。
他的脑海中开始闪现出信用卡、现金、会员证和身份证；内心的恐惧感搅动着他的胃。
那个女孩跟我那么近，他想——他顿时明白了就是她偷了他的钱包。
他该怎么做呢？票还在，安全地折在他的上衣口袋里——他伸手到夹克里摸了摸信封，再确定一下。
他还能上飞机，打电话叫人到目的地接他——因为他连坐公交车的钱都没有了——办完公事，再飞回家。
但是同时，他还得处理丢失的信用卡——打电话回家，要妻子从桌子最上面的抽屉找到卡号，打电话给信用卡公司——整个过程太难了，整件事让他感到憋气。
他该怎么办呢？首先：找个警察，告诉他发生的事情，描述那个女人的样子；该死的，他想，好像在对他表示好感，让自己和他站那么近，他说话时还红了下脸——这一切不过是想偷他的钱。
她的脸红不是害羞，而是怕被捉住；这是最让人恶心的。
骗人的家伙，见鬼去吧。
他将不跟警察谈及细节——只告诉他们她做了什么，钱包里有什么。
他咬牙切齿，他很可能再也见不到他的钱包了。
正当他犹豫要不要花点时间告诉X光检测机旁的警卫时，他惊奇地——极度喜悦地——看到了黑发女孩。
她正背对着候机厅正面的一扇玻璃窗坐着，暮色中，的士和私家车从她身后缓慢驶过；她似乎正在专心看一本书。
她身边的位置空着，男士坐了下来。
“我一直在找你。
”他说。
她看了他一眼，不认识的样子。
“我不认识你。
”她说。
“你肯定认识。
”她叹了口气，把书放在了一旁。
“你们这些人都是这么想的吗——结交我们这样的女子，好像我们是迷途的动物。
你把我当成什么人了？”“你偷了我的钱包。
”他说。
他很高兴用了“偷”这个词，认为比“窃”、“取”、甚至“抢”都听起来显得老练的多。
“你说什么？”女孩说道。
“我知道是你干的——在杂志柜台前。
如果你把钱包还给我，整个事情就此忘记；如果你不，那么我就要把你送交警方。
”他观察着她，表情严肃。
“好吧，”她说，她把黑包提到膝盖上，从里面摸出一个钱包。
他拿了过来。
“等等，”他说，“这不是我的。
”女孩跑了，他跟在后面追。
就像电影里的一幕，围观者四下散开，女孩绕来绕去，以免撞到，他自己喘气的声音提醒了他已经老了——直到他听到身后传来一个女人的声音：“站住，小偷！拦住他！”他面前的黑发女孩在一个拐角处消失了，与此同时，一个身穿海军制服的年轻人伸腿绊倒了他。
他摔的很重，膝盖和胳膊肘重重地摔在了机场的地板上，可手里仍紧紧抓着那个不属于他的钱包。
钱包是女士的，装满了钱和不同商店的信用卡，那是穿着皮边衣服的金发女郎的——就是早些时候和偷钱包的黑发女孩谈话的那个。
她和跟着她的警察也都气喘吁吁的。
“就是他，”金发女孩说道，“他偷了我的钱包。
”碰巧男士连自己的身份都无法向警察证明。
两周后，所有的尴尬和愤怒都消失了，私人律师的费用付了，家中的混乱也平息了——这时，钱包却出现了一封早上的邮件中，没有任何说明。
钱包完好无损，分文不少，所有的卡也还在原来的地方。
尽管他松了一口气，他还是觉得下半辈子见到警察就会有犯罪感，在女人面前则会感到羞愧。
