The Healing power of BeliefFor the past two years,I have been studying cancer survivors at UGLA,trying to find out why it is that some people respond much better to their treatment than do others.At first I though that some patients did well because their illnesses were not as severe as the illnesses of others.On closer scrutiny,however,I discovered that severity of the illness was only one of a number of factors that accounted for the difference between those who get well and those who don’t .The patients i am talking about here received upon diagnosis whatever therapy medication,radiation,surgery-their individual cases demanded.Yet the response to such treatments was hardly uniform.Some patients fared much better in their therapies than others.在过去的两年里,我一直在UGLA研究癌症幸存者,试图发现为什么对有些人治疗产生的效果会比其他人好。
以开始我认为一些人治疗效果好是因为他们的疾病没有别人眼中。

UNIT71. Several leading modern business leaders seem, surprisingly, to downplay the importance of strategy. You can make too much fuss about strategy, they imply--- you have a few clear options; just choose one and get on with it. is it really that simple?2. “Strategy is straightforward---just pick a general direction and implement like hell.”Jack Welch, for example---the chairman and CEO of the USA’s General Electric Company; the man who grow the company from a market capitalization of $27 billion to a $140 billion, making GE the largest and most valuable company in the world. he must know a thing or two about strategy. But here’s what he says: “In real life, strategy is actually very straightforward. You pick a general direction and you implement like hell.”Or Allan leighton, the man who was recruited by Archie Norman to help res cue the UK’s ailing Asda supermarket chain, and went on to build the company into one of Britain’s most successful retailers. “Strategy is important,” says Leighton, “but it is a compass, not a road map. It tells you in which direction you are heading, but the important bit is how you get there.”Or Louis Gerstner, the man who rescued IBM in the 1990’s when the struggling mainframe supplier was about to be driven into extinction by the new, smaller and more agile personal computer manufacturers. “It is extremely difficult to develop a unique strategy for a company; and if the strategy is truly different, it is probably highly risky. Execution really is the critical part of a successful strategy. Getting it done, getting it done right, getting it done better than the next person is far more important than dreaming up new visions of the future.”3. So strategy is simple. And having an ingenious new strategy is less important than carrying it out successfully. In fact it might be dangerous. It that right?Let’s look at one last quote from Mr. Welch. “When I became CEO in 1981, we launched a highly publicized initiative: be number one or number two in every market, and fix, sell or close to get there. This was not our strategy, although I’ve often heard it descri bed that way.It was a galvanising mantra to describe how we were going to do business going forward. Our strategy was much more directional. GE was going to move away from businesses that were being commoditized toward businesses that manufactured high-value technology products or sold services instead of things.”Grand strategy versus strategy4. I would argue that these CEO’s blue chip corporations are taking a slightly Olympian view of the concept of “strategy.” Let’s call what hey are talking about “grand strategy” a strategy, but in the overarching sense, like the American car industry saying that they are going to move out gas-guzzlers and into smaller, more fuel-efficient models. 1.一些领先的现代企业领导人似乎,奇怪的是,淡化战略的重要性。

多为教程-英语翻译(第二册)Unit1 从能力到责任1当代的大学生对他们在社会中所扮演的角色的认识模糊不清。
他们致力于寻求在他们看来似乎是最现实的东西:追求安全保障,追逐物质财富的积累。
年轻人努力想使自己成人成才、有所作为,但他们对未来的认识还是很模糊的。
处于像他们这样前程未定的年龄阶段,他们该信仰什么?大学生一直在寻找真我的所在,寻找生活的意义。
一如芸芸众生的我们,他们也陷入了两难的境地。
一方面,他们崇尚奉献于人的理想主义,而另一方面,他们又经不住自身利益的诱惑,陷入利己主义的世界里欲罢不能。
2最终而言,大学教育素质的衡量取决于毕业生是否愿意为他们所处的社会和赖以生存的城市作出贡献。
尼布尔曾经写道:“一个人只有意识到对社会所负有的责任,他才能够认识到自身的潜力。
一个人如果一味地以自我为中心,他将会失去自我。
”本科教育必须对这种带有理想主义色彩的观念进行自我深省,使学生超越以自我为中心的观念,以诚相待,服务社会。
在这一个竞争激烈\残酷的社会,人们期望大学生能报以正直、文明,,甚至富有同情心的人格品质去与人竞争,这是否已是一种奢望?人们期望大学的人文教育会有助于培养学生的人际交往能力,如今是否仍然适合?3毫无疑问,大学生应该履行公民的义务。
美国的教育必须立刻采取行动,使教育理所当然地承担起弥合公共政策与公众的理解程度之间的极具危险性且在日益加深的沟壑这一职责。

Unit 1: Science vs. the Humanities科学是一门知识,是解决工业、农业、战争和医疗方面技术问题的非常有用的工具。
要了解科学在于解决个人和国家面临的物质和精神方面可以达到什么广度和深度,就必须了解科学的真实含义是什么。
科学一词来自拉丁语Scire,它的意思是“知道”。
所以,从广义上讲,科学不过是指我们所知道的事情,是人类知识的总和。
但是,把科学定义为人类的全部知识是不切实际的,因为很明显,有各种不同门类的知识。
这些知识根据其获得的方法以及它所适合的经验范围而有所不同。
我们所了解的有关艺术、文学、法律、宗教和专门技术知识等都不同程度地分属于各种独立的知识财富,与我们通常所说的科学没有什么联系。
Science is a kind of knowledge which is a very useful tool in solving the technical problems of industry, agriculture, warfare, and medicine. To understand the width and depth to which science can be applied to the material and spiritual problems that confront individuals and nations requires an understanding of what science really is.The word science comes to us from a Latin word, Scire, which means “to know”. Then, in a broad sense, science is simply what we know, the total of all human knowledge. But the definition of science as all human knowledge would not be a workable one, for it is obvious that there are different types of knowledge. The kinds differ according to how the knowledge was obtained, and also according to what frame of experience it fits. What we know of the arts, literature, law, religion, and technical know-how, are more or less separate funds of knowledge. They have little to do with what we commonly call science.Unit5: The Science of Custom对人类学家来说,文化的涵义远胜于修养、品味、温文尔雅、教育以及美术欣赏等。

第一部分课文翻译旅行通用语1 数十年来,法兰西语言研究院一直捍卫着法语的尊严。
几年前,由于法国人对英语词汇的入侵非常敏感,该机构颁布了净化法语的法律,其内容甚至涉及专业术语。
就拿波音747 (Boeing747)来说吧,现在法国人必须用法语词gros-porteur;表示出租的leasing也变成了credit-bail。
此类例子不胜枚举,触及生活的方方面面。
法国总统希拉克很可能会继续加大力度,直至连英特网internet和字节流(信息组) byte stream之类的词也找到相应的法语新词。
哎,真不知未来的法语会变成什么样。
2 不幸的是(或许并非不幸),英语没有受到如此的保护。
在美国,随处可见严重偏离英国标准英语的美式英语。
“honour”普遍被写成“honor”,“night”也变成了“nite”。
许多词意广为人知的英式英语单词被赋予新的解释,交流也变得有些困难。
比如说,汽车的行李箱“boot”变成了“trunk”(一个在英国指代树干的单词);引擎盖“bonnet”变成了“hood”(英式英语中的风帽);老式婴儿尿布“nappy”变成了“diaper”(英式英语中的菱格花纹织物);婴儿小外套“matineejacket”也变成了“vest”(英国的内衣汗衫)。
显而易见,两国英语同出一源,而如今却将两国彼此隔离。
当然了,按美国人的观点,是英国人的语言表达出了问题。
3 实际使用中,甚至还有更糟的英语呢!只要你在外国旅游并注意一下菜单、海报、旅店、甚至当地日常生活中的英语,就可以证明过去的标准用语在这些地方已变得不伦不类,让我详例如下:4 旅行作家波洛?菲利浦曾不惜笔墨地渲染自己的几番经历,我觉得该有更多的读者了解一下。
他提及某份荷兰的灯泡目录,上面对用户承诺有“a speedy execution’——快速处死(毫无疑问,想表达的应是“送货及时”)。
此外,东柏林的一个衣帽间告示要求客人“please hang yourself here”——请在这儿吊死自己(本想说的是“将衣帽挂在这儿”)。

Unit oneTranslation and WritingAIn the past, when explorers or merchants went out into the world to find new lands or markets or sources of raw materials, they often did not share a language with the people with whom they came into contact. When this situation was encountered, one of three solutions was adopted: (1) the foreigners learned the language of their host (or vice versa), (2) they used some third language commonly employed in the region for trading purposes, or (3) a new language emerged, made up of elements from the various native languages of its users. Language that are used for communication among speakers of different language used in the Mediterranean region and based largely on Romance languages (Italian, French, and Spanish) but also containing elements of Greek, Arabic, and Turkish. In the modern world, it is fair to say that English is the most important lingua franca, since it is used as a means of communication between large numbers of people who do not otherwise share a common language.在过去,当探险者或商人们走出家园到外面的世界去寻找新的领地、市场或原材料资源时,他们通常与跟他们打交道的当地人说的不是同一种语言。

Final Version of TranslationUnit two1.为什么我们与来自其它文化的人们的交流总是充满了误会、让人感到沮丧呢?令很多人奇怪的是,即使怀着良好的愿望、使用自己认为是友好的方式,甚至有互利的可能性,也似乎都不足以保证交流的成功。
有时候,出现排斥现象正是因为一方所属的文化群体团体是“不同”的。
在这个国际舞台发生重大变化的时刻,探讨为什么尝试交流的结果却令人失望的原因是必要的,这些原因实际上是跨文化交流中的绊脚石。
2.相似性的假设为什么误解或反对会产生呢?这个问题的一个回答就是,大部分的人天真地认为世界上的人有足够的相似之处,可以让我们成功地交流信息或感受,解决共同关注的一些问题,加强商业关系,或者只是产生我们所希望产生的印象。
所有的人都会生儿育女,组成家庭或社会,发展一种语言以及适应他们周围环境的这种倾向特别具有欺骗性,因为它带来了一种期望,这种期望就是这些行为的形式以及围绕这些行动的态度与价值观念将是相似的。
相信“人就是人”和“我们内在本质是相似的,”这让人感到心安理得,但是下定决心去寻找证据却只会令人失望。
3.力求证明达尔文关于面部表情是共同的这一理论的跨文化研究给人极大的希望,研究者发现脸部的某些看得见的形状,即因愤怒、恐惧、惊讶、悲伤、厌恶、幸福而紧缩的肌肉组合,我们人类各成员都是一样的。
但是这似乎无济于事,只要我们意识到一个人生长的文化决定了这种情感是否会表露或压抑,决定了在何种场合和多大的程度上会表露或压抑。
带来这种情绪感受的情形也因文化而异,例如:由于崇拜的文化信仰不同,一个心爱的人死亡可能带来欢乐、悲哀或其他情感。
4.因为似乎没有普遍的人性可以作为自动理解的基础,所以我们必须把每交往当作个别案例来处理,寻求任何共同的认知和交流方法并以此作为出发点。
如果我们认识到我们受文化的约束,受文化的改变,那么我们就会受这一现实:因为各自不同,我们确实不太清楚其他人“是”什么样的。

It's long been accepted that women pick out most of the clothes for the family and decide on home furnishings, but this study of 51000U.S.households showed some surprising facets of purchasing decisions broken down by gender. Men defer to women when it comes to choosing movies, restaurants and television shows, according to the survey. The data indicated that women also decide where to sit in a movie theatre, where to shop for food and which guests come to the family home. In fact, the only areas where men had any clout involved personal electronics purchases, the family car and setting household budgets. The gender differences in purchasing could have implications for advertising, media and education companies, said NPD chief analyst Marshal Cohen, who spearheaded the research. "Anyone who's managing a brand, marketing a product or working for an advertising agency needs to be conscientious in the shifts in consumer dynamics," Cohen said.10.I found it hard to identify with any of the characters in the films.11.After months of disappointment, his perseverance was finally rewarded.12.She made her meaning crystal clear.13.Like most married couples they have had their ups and downs, but life is likethat.14.After this cold winter, everyone is yearning for the weather to change.15.This advertisement is calculated to appeal to children.16.This riot is only manifestation of people's discontent.17.Primitive man made himself primitive tools from sharp stones and animal bones.18.The automobile was improved very rapidly after it was invented and soon displaced horses.19.We may have to cut down on the number of privately owned cars and depend more on public mass transit systems because cars pollute and maim or even kill people.20.While wheels have brought with them better or more convenient transportation, they are guilty of many sins, such as air pollution, traffic accidents and traffic congestions.21.Americans are noted for their love for cars and great job mobility.22.If only advances in fuel quality and efficiency and in technology would radically reduce the emissions from automobiles.23.A high developed highway network has made possible the easy movement from coast to coast in the U.S.24.The very thought of the speed at which the beautiful avenue was constructed electrified every visitor; the road had only recently been torn up to lay drain-pipes not long ago.25.Environmentalists have denounced automobiles, believing they are a major factor in the production of dirty air.26.Many new residential complexes have risen up in the suburbs of metropolitan cities because of the availability of convenient public transportation.27.Despite their love for cars, many people lend credence to the extensive use of the public transport system, which can cut down on traffic congestion.。

4.Not the most abject academic failure, not the most heinous act of plagiarism, not even threatening a fellow student with bodily harm—I’ve heard of all three—will get you expelled. 4.不管是最绝望的课程不及格,还是最可恶的抄袭劣行,甚至对其他同学的身体伤害的威胁等都不会被开除,这三种情况我都听说过。
5.Long before they got to college, they turned themselves into world-class hoop-jumpers and teacher-pleasers, getting A’s in every class no matter how boring they found the teacher or how pointless the subject, racking up eight or ten extracurricular activities no matter what else they wanted to do with their time.5.在他们进入大学之前很久就已经把自己变成世界一流的俯首帖耳,讨好老师的小爬虫,在每门课上都得优秀成绩,不管他们觉得这个老师多么乏味,不管他觉得这门课多么没有意义。
他们也尽力积累八到十个课外活动,不管多么想用这些时间做别的事情。
Passage two1.Certainly many neurotic boomer parents-and their stressed-out ,resume-building teenagers—assume that it is always better to choose Harvard over Big State U. because of Harvard’s presumably superior educational environment, better alumni connections, and more lucrative on-campus recruiting opportunities.对于那些在生育高峰期出生,已为人父母的人和他们焦虑不安,整日忙于增加阅历,以使简历内容更加丰富的十几岁的孩子来说,选择哈佛大学当然比重点州立大学更好。
因为哈佛可能会有优越的教育环境,更好的校友圈子,以及更加诱人的校园招聘机会。
2.It’s true that big law firms, major teaching hospitals, and investment banks—heck, even the offices of FORTUNE—are stuffed with Ivy Leaguers. It’s also true that if you want a career at what passes for the American establishment—Sullivan&Cromwell, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs—a gilt-edged diploma is a distinct advantage.事实上,大型法律公司,主要示教医院和投资银行,甚至是财富杂志的办公室,满是常春藤学生。
这也是事实,如果你想在被当做美国经济基石的公司谋得一份职业,如苏利文*克伦威尔律师事务所,麦肯锡,高盛等,那么一份镶金的学位证书无疑是一个独特的优势。
3.The advantages of Harvard, in other words, confer few benefits on the class slacker. Robert Zemsky. An education professor at the University of Pennsylvania, who believes a prestigious undergraduate degree does pay off, puts it this way: “It’s like the brass ring on a merry-go-round.If you go to a high-prices, highly selective school, you have a better shot at the brass ring. But you have to grab it.”换句话说,哈佛的优势在于不会给偷懒者带来太多的好处。
宾夕法尼亚大学的教育学教授Robert Zemsky认为读有名的大学是划算的,他这样说:“这就好比是旋转木马上的铜环。
如果你选择一个昂贵的高选性的学校,你就有更好的机会能够击中铜环。
但是你必须得抓住它。
”4.So listen up, high school seniors: Your life is not over if you end up at the University of Oklahoma. In fact, if you want to be governor of Oklahoma when you grow up, you’re probably better off graduating a sooner.请高校的高年级学生注意听好了:如果你仅仅只是毕业于俄克拉马荷马州立大学你的人生并没有完蛋。
而事实上,如果你想长大后成为俄克拉荷马州的州长,你还能近水楼台先得月。
5.Most studies use future income, the favorite yardstick of those dead souls called economists. But knowing the cost-benefit ratio of a purchase is not the same as knowing it value.很多研究运用未来收入,因为这是那些被称为经济学家的老家伙们最青睐的计算标准。
但是,知道一件所购之物的成本效益率并不等于知道了它的价值。
Unit Eight TravelPassage one1. As darkness fell on the olive trees and the grazing deer, I slipped into the jacuzzi in my tree house and listened to the Pacific breakers roll in.当夜幕落在橄榄树和吃草的鹿上,我滑进我树屋中的浴缸,听着太平洋的波涛滚滚的声音。
2. Kaikoura is not a name that trips off the tongue when you list those lucky places that offer encounters with nature and a touch of luxury.与那些让游人接触到大自然和获得奢侈享受的著名景点相比,凯库拉并不是人民耳熟能详的名字3. There’s a shock of cold water and a heave of ocean swell, even though we’re within sight of the mountains ,not half a mile from the shore.尽管我们的视线还能看到山脉,离海岸不超过半英里,却感到一股冰冷的水袭和湍急的海涌。
4. Today, the hunt is for thrills not kills.今天,追踪鲸鱼只是为了刺激而不是杀戮。
5. It’s a view that the modern world is starting to share .And here in Kaikoura, you can experience it for real.这一点在世界渐达共识。
在卡库拉,你可以真真切切体会到它。
