课文全文参考译文第一课漏油经济:低估风险戴维伦哈特[1] 回想起来,模式似乎很清楚。
早在“深水地平线”钻机自爆前的很多年,BP 石油公司为了省钱甘冒安全的风险就已经声名狼藉。
2005 年得克萨斯州炼油厂爆炸中有15 名工人丧生。
联邦监管机构和前国务卿詹姆斯·贝克三世领导的专门小组认为,削减成本是事故的部分原因。
第二年,阿拉斯加腐蚀的管道将石油漏入普拉德霍湾。
就连乔·巴顿,对全球变暖持怀疑态度、来自得克萨斯州的共和党众议员,都谴责BP 管理人员“对安全和环境问题表现得漠不关心”。
[2] 这种冷漠大部分源于对利润的过度追求,不管出现什么情况。
但似乎也还有另一个因素在起作用,一个更普遍的人性的因素。
BP 的管理人员在估计似乎不太可能发生但一旦发生就会带来巨大损失的事件真正会发生的可能性时,犯了一个可怕的错误。
[3] 也许理解这一点最简单的方法就是思考一下BP 高管们如今的想法。
显然,考虑到清理费用和对BP 声誉的影响,高管们真希望可以回到过去,多花些钱让“深水地平线”更安全。
他们没有增加这笔费用就表明他们认为钻机在当时的状态下不会出问题。
[4] 尽管针对BP 高管的所有批评可能都是他们应得的,但是他们绝不是唯一艰难应对这种低概率、高成本事件的人。
几乎每个人都会如此。
“这些正是我们人类处理时很难做出合理反应的一类事件,”哈佛大学环境经济学家罗伯特·斯塔文斯说。
我们经常犯两种基本且性质相反的错误。
当一件事情是很难想象的,我们往往会低估它的可能性。
这就是众所周知的黑天鹅(稀有之物)现象。
大多数在“深水地平线”工作的人可能从未经历过钻井平台爆炸。
因此他们认为这不会发生,至少不会发生在他们身上。
[5] 同样,不久以前,本·伯南克和艾伦·格林斯潘也喜欢称全国房地产市场没有泡沫,因为以前从未有过泡沫。
华尔街交易员也持同样观点,他们建立的数学模型根本不存在房价下降的可能性。

1.就连乔·巴顿,对全球变暖持怀疑态度、来自得克萨斯州的共和党众议员,都谴责BP管理人员“对安全和环境问题表现得漠不关心”。
2.显然,考虑到清理费用和对BP 声誉的影响,高管们真希望可以回到过去,多花些钱让“深水地平线”更安全。
他们没有增加这笔费用就表明他们认为钻机在当时的状态下不会出问题。
3.埃克森公司瓦尔迪兹漏油事件发生后,在1990年的一个法案很少引人注意的一项条款中,美国国会将钻机泄漏清理费用的责任上限定为7500 万美元。
即使对旅游业、渔业等造成的经济损失高达数十亿美元,责任方也仅需要支付7500 万美元。
4.不过,如果认为我们目前仍然低估的只是那些突然间引人注目的风险,那是非常愚蠢的。
Lesson 21 It is a cliché, as it is to talk of apocalypse and nightm are, but when someth ing is beyond our experience, we reach for the points of refere nce we have. 说到世界末日和噩梦又是老生常谈,但是当事情超出我们的经验时,我们总会寻找现有的东西作为参照。

研究生英语阅读教程(基础级版)课文及其翻译

Whupping (whipping/Beating) Fat AlbertBy Rudolph Giuliani[1] My father was an excellent (perfect, wonderful) boxer. His poor eyesight prevented him from becoming the prizefighter (warrior/ knight) he wanted to be, but at 6 feet and a lean 150 pounds, he was fast and tough. He understood the sport and would describe fights to me in great detail, explaining the strategies and techniques of the great fighters, men like (such as) Sugar Ray Robinson, Joe Louis, Willie Pep, Rocky Marciano, and Jersey Joe Walcott.[2] In boxing, he said, the most important skill was to stay (be) calm. This was the best lesson my father ever taught me—stay calm, especially when those (people) around you are uneasy or troubled (upset). The one who stays unruffled has a great advantage in being able to help others, to control the situation, to fix it. The fighter who loses his cool (calmness) the first time he's hit will end up flat on his back on the canvas. If he remains calm, even while he's being hit, he can look for opportunities to hit back. (knock down->out knock out)[3] The lesson came in handy (turned out/ proved to be useful). My Uncle Willie was a New Y ork City police officer. Long after he retired, he always wore a jacket and, usually, a tie. He was a shy (silent/ timid) man who kept to himself (silent), and he'd spend his off hours reading the paper under the tree in front of our house. Next door lived another family, and the father was also a cop. For some reason, my uncle disliked him—perhaps he'd been nasty or unfair to Uncle Willie. Anyway, this guy (man/ fellow) had a son named Albert, a big fat kid, two years older than me—I was about 5 and he was 7. Albert took advantage of his size to intimidate (frighten) the other kids. He'd knock them down and roll (sit) on them.[4] My uncle used to read Spring 3100, the in-house police magazine. I loved looking at it—still do, in fact. I would pore over (study sth. carefully) Uncle Willie's copy, but only for so long—my uncle would always take the magazine back. One day he was sitting alone under the tree and my mother was nowhere in sight. He called me over. A copy of Spring 3100 was by his side.[5] "Y ou want this magazine, right?"[6] "Y es," I replied.[7] "Y ou want it to keep?"[8] "Sure!'[9] "Beat up Albert, and I'll give you the magazine."[10] "What do you mean?"[11] Uncle Willie said, "Look, your father's been teaching you to box. Throw a couple of jabs like your old man showed you and Albert will start crying—he's a fat slob and bullies are never as tough (strong/ powerful) as they seem."[12] I was reluctant, because Albert was much heavier than I was. But Uncle Willie showed me the magazine and let me hold it, before taking it back and repeating that it would be mine as soon asI got (made) Albert to cry uncle.[13] A little while (moment) later, Uncle Willie was sitting in his usual chair, when (suddenly) I saw Albert up to his usual tricks, pushing some kids around, all of them smaller than he. I don't remember exactly how it (fighting) started. All I know is that I found myself in a fight with him, just the two of us.[14] I started jabbing at his face—boom, boom, boom, exactly as I'd been taught—and they (jabs) were landing, nearly all of them. Albert never laid a hand on me—or if he did, I didn't notice.His nose started bleeding, a shiner was rising (swelling) nicely (noticeably), and finally he started to cry. Then he turned and ran home (ad.).[15] I went home, too, and told my mother. She slapped me hard (heavily) across the face. "Apologize right now, and I'm going to tell your father tonight. He's going to give you a real beating."[16] "I don't want to apologize," I mumbled. "He started it." For that I got a second slap.[17] Albert was still crying, and I begrudgingly (reluctantly) said, "I'm sorry, Albert." My mother made (forced) us (to) shake hands and ordered me to stay in for the rest of the day. I glanced at my uncle, and thought, at least he could give me the darn magazine. But I didn't give him up. I just went slowly up to my room. About 20 minutes later, his daughter, my cousin (/=nephew/ niece) Evangeline, came up. She was carrying his copy of Spring 3100. "My dad wanted you to have this," she said. "Since you have to stay in all day." I looked out the window. Uncle Willie was still there, under his tree, and he gave me a nod—as much for keeping my mouth shut, I knew, as for whipping Albert.[18] My father came home that evening, and my mother told him what had happened. I could hear them (talk) talking in the room next door. It was his fault, my mother said, for teaching me to box. He should give me a licking (beating) I'd never forget. My father came up to me, but before he could adopt (~ed child) a suitable face (expression) of disapproval, he blurted, "You whipped Albert? God almighty (mighty=powerful)! He's two years older than you, and 25 pounds heavier!" (mighty=powerful)[19] Standing up to bullies might sound like a glib call to be macho (brave), but the truth is it takes a toll on you. One of the best reasons to let bullies know you won't back down (withdraw/ retreat) from a fight is so (difficult) that it doesn't get to (express) that point (meaning). That's not just a theory—there were many times (cases/ often) in my administration when an early confrontation led to far less fighting (struggle) down the road (in the direction). Here's an example. At about 8:40 p. m. on Wednesday, July 17, 1996, TWA Flight 800 crashed into the Atlantic Ocean just off (away from) Long Island. All 230 on board the Paris-bound 747, which had taken off from Kennedy International Airport, were killed. My community response team and I got to the scene (site)(scenery) within an hour and set up an assistance (help) center at the Ramada Plaza Hotel near the airport to provide aid (help) and counseling (comfort) to family members. [boarding school][20] When we got (arrived) there, the first thing we tried to do was (to) obtain (get) the manifest so (that) we could be sure who had been on the plane. Airlines are required by law to compile a complete list of passengers on international flights, including full names, passport information, and emergency phone contact numbers. This information is supposed (thought to (=should) be made available within three hours of any crash. In this case, by 11:30 p. m., TWA said 229 people were aboard. By noon the next day, they were saying the number was 228. Later in the afternoon, they put the number at 230. I repeatedly demanded an accurate passenger list from TWA but was given every excuse why the airline couldn't produce one. I sensed (felt) something was up (was happening) when I received a call about 4 a. m. from the CEO of the airline, Jeffrey Erickson, from a plane heading for Kennedy. I told him that I needed the manifest. He said we would talk when he got to New Y ork, that he wanted to "liaise" (contact) with me. I don't agree to liaise with people I haven't met. But then I thought, well, maybe I shouldn't be so judgmental (subjunctive) based on the use of one word.[21] By the next day, I was exasperated. I felt we were getting the runaround. When Ericksonfinally showed up (appeared), he addressed the families and the press at Kennedy Airport, and spoke for under (less than) a minute. He refused to take a single question. He added nothing to what we already knew; there was certainly nothing to liaise about.[22] On behalf of the families of the passengers—and with an eye toward future disasters—I decided to make my anger known. On several national shows and on all the local channels, I criticized TWA for caring more about covering (hiding) itself than promptly notifying (informing) suffering family members. On Friday, I recorded my weekly WABC radio show from the Ramada and said, "The upper management of TWA incompetently handled (delt with) the notification process for the families. That continues to be exacerbated (worse) by their not telling the truth about what happened."[23] Three months later, Erickson resigned (sign + nature->signature). But that wasn't the point (key). In a city the size of New Y ork, disasters are inevitable (=unavoidable). I wanted leaders of companies involved in any future disaster to understand just what was expected of them—clear, honest, timely communication. By refusing to keep quiet about TWA's behavior, I made sure (granter) the consequences of putting corporate needs ahead of human suffering were understood.

The book concludes with a review of the possible impact (influence) of more intimate computers for good or ill, in various areas of human life.2. Moreover, it had become clear from the opinion polls that the unpopularity of the new tax was being laid at the door of the government which had introduced it, rather than the local authorities who were responsible for levying and collecting it.3. This case gave the example of breaking someone's arm: that is a really serious injury, but one which is unlikely to endanger the victim's life.4. Many of those who hold it live in poor areas and some are Colored, that is (i.e./ namely), of mixed European and African descent.5. This debate is important because it points up (stress/ emphasize) that "the facts" are not necessarily assimple and straightforward as they might at first sight seem.6. In the beginning, the meaning of life might be debated, but once past the first period, many of the conversations follow a well-worn route from one topic to the next and back again, taking in most of human life.7. But since agriculture forms the basis (base) of our industry, it was, by and large (on the whole), also an intensification of the crisis in the national economy in general.8. Let us leave aside other relevant factors such as education, career structure, pay and conditions of service and concentrate on (focus on) manpower management.(relate A to B)9. It is true that the exact nature of this issue is uncertain. However, one thing is crystal clear: it will not endanger the planet and its inhabitants.10.

[criteria: (1)semantic/ (2)grammatic]A simplified form of the English language based on 850 key words was developed in the late 1920s by the English psychologist Charles Kay Ogden and 1 by the English educator I.A. Richards. Known as Basic English, it was used mainly to teach English to non-English-speaking persons and 2 as an international language. The complexities of English spelling and grammar, however, were major 3 to the adoption of Basic English as a second language.The fundamental principle of Basic English was that any idea, 4 complex, may be reduced to simple units of thought andexpressed clearly by a limited number of everyday words. The 850-word primary vocabulary was 5 600 nouns (representing things or events), 150 adjectives (for qualities and _ 6 ), and 100 general "operational" words, mainly verbs and prepositions. Almost all the words were in 7 use in English-speaking countries. More than 60 percent of them were one-syllable words. The basic vocabulary was created 8 by eliminating 9 the use of 18 "basic" verbs, such as make, get, do, have, and be.Numerous words which have the same or similar meanings and by verbs, such as make, get, do, have, and be. These verbs were generally combined with prepositions, such as up, among, under, in, and forward. For example,a Basic English student would use the expression “go up”10 "ascend".

Lesson 11. Yesterday’s terrorism darkened, marked and forever altered the way Americans live their lives. 昨日发生的恐怖主义活动使美国人的生活暗淡无光,在他们的生活中留下了印迹,并永远地改变了他们的生活。
2. “We are going to have to learn what a lot of other countries have gone through: to manage fear at a cultural and national level,” said Charles Figley, a professor of trauma psychology at Florida State University. “We’re getting a lesson in the way fear works.”佛罗里达州立大学创伤心理学教授查尔斯?费格里说:“我们得学一学其它许多国家曾经经历过的东西,那就是从文化上和在全国范围内来应对恐惧。
”他还说:“我们正在体验恐惧是怎样起作用的。
”3. In a country long proud and even boastful of its openness—a country where an ordinary citizen can stroll through the U.S. Capitol unescorted—the terrorist attacks are likely to force Americans to a lot of that. Metal detectors now mark the front door of many government buildings, and security guards are a fixture in the lobby of most large office buildings.美国是一个一向以开放自豪甚至洋洋得意的国家,在这里,人们可以独自在美国国会大楼中闲庭信步,而现在,恐怖袭击很有可能迫使美国人处处小心,惶惶不可终日。

Lesson 11.就连乔·巴顿,对全球变暖持怀疑态度、来自得克萨斯州的共和党众议员,都谴责BP 管理人员“对安全和环境问题表现得漠不关心”。
2.显然,考虑到清理费用和对BP 声誉的影响,高管们真希望可以回到过去,多花些钱让“深水地平线”更安全。
他们没有增加这笔费用就表明他们认为钻机在当时的状态下不会出问题。
3.埃克森公司瓦尔迪兹漏油事件发生后,在1990 年的一个法案很少引人注意的一项条款中,美国国会将钻机泄漏清理费用的责任上限定为7 500 万美元。
即使对旅游业、渔业等造成的经济损失高达数十亿美元,责任方也仅需要支付7 500 万美元。
4.不过,如果认为我们目前仍然低估的只是那些突然间引人注目的风险,那是非常愚蠢的。
Lesson21It is a cliché,as it is to talk of apocalypse and nightmare,but when something is beyond our experience,we reach for the points of reference we have.说到世界末日和噩梦又是老生常谈,但是当事情超出我们的经验时,我们总会寻找现有的东西作为参照。
2Lest you should ever forget the smallness of being human,the iconic Mount Fuji,instantly reco gnisable yet somehow different on every viewing,is an extinct volcano.唯恐你会忘记作为人类的渺小,标志性富士山,一眼即能认出但不知何故每次观看又呈现出不同景象,就是一座死火山。
3It surprised me,over the following months that the gas attack seemed to dominate the national media coverage,whereas Kobe,after the initial weeks of horrifying footage,slipped somewhat i nto the background.在随后的几个月里,让我吃惊的是毒气攻击似乎占据了国家媒体报道的主要内容,而阪神大地震经过了最初几周骇人听闻的电视报道后,已经退居次位了。

Unit 5Text A〓我辉煌的临时工作〓1克里斯汀·伯吉文推迟寻找工作并为此感到骄傲。
1996年,从南加州大学毕业时,她不想身穿套装、脚蹬高跟鞋成为公司的奴隶。
相反,她花了200美元购买了赴英国工作的许可证和一张飞机票,在国外辛苦工作了六个月。
她先是在伦敦的塞尔弗里吉百货公司销售高科技小装置,然后在爱丁堡的一家酒馆当了一段酒吧侍者。
“起初我很担心我会把工作搞砸”,伯吉文说,“但是我发现我几乎可以应付一切,甚至于做外币预算。
从此以后,在这儿找工作就易如反掌了。
”2 大约有十分之一的应届毕业生会推迟“真正”的工作而寻找一个临时的职位。
最近几年,这些数字变化不大,但原因却改变了很多。
不久前,由于经济衰退,这些延期找工作的学生只是短时间地干一段临时性工作。
现在大多数人故意推迟几个月甚至两三年才开始工作的磨炼。
他们充满自信,认为等他们准备好时就业市场会欢迎他们, 因此他们会找有吸引力的临时工作来做。
大约有60%的大学生毕业时都背负着学生贷款,因此10年借款偿还开始前的6个月的时间给许多人提供了“最后一次游乐的时机”。
《忙里偷闲》的合著者之一朗·莱伯这样写道。
这里,机遇向你招手,危险也潜伏其中。
3 遗憾的是,你来晚了。
首先是不好的消息。
大学毕业后延期找工作会产生严重后果,而这不只是影响到你的父母。
在商业和金融领域,延期找工作的学生也许会失去那些受尊敬的并且报酬丰厚的工作。
北卡罗来纳州立大学教会山分校的就业服务中心主任玛西亚·哈里斯提醒说,比如经纪公司的初级金融分析师的职位是专为应届毕业生预留的。
六个月的拖延完全可能把申请人从此淘汰出局。
或许,在你离开时,工作机会比比皆是;但当你回来时,就业市场却冷冷清清。
力求追上别人可能是延期找工作的同学的另一种困境。
临时酒吧招待,现年24岁的洛杉矶公关职员伯吉文估计在薪金和工作职责方面都落后于她的同学一年左右的时间。
4 最高尚的延期方式是拯救世界。

第十课 A我和松鼠妈妈谈条件玛尔格特戴弗林(1)我和我的丈夫最近从郊区搬到了城里。
(2)两周前我正在书房读书的时候,听到了一阵骚乱声。
为了保护我们新婚的家不受入侵者的骚扰,我拿起了致命的防卫武器——一把扫帚,小心地下了楼。
(3)我走到外面想看看入侵者是从什么地方来的。
正当我四处寻找的时候,看见了这个坏家伙从门廊的屋顶上出现了。
根据它弄出的声音我原以为是一只 50 磅重的浣熊,但是我错了,它只是一只半磅重的灰色的毛茸茸的松鼠。
我拿起扫把嘘声将它赶走,但是第二天我听见它又来了。
(4)我上网搜索了有关松鼠的信息,我发现因为松鼠是啮齿类动物,它们的牙齿会不断地长长,因此它们就必须经常啃食东西来把牙齿磨短。
我了解到它们经常会啃电线,这样房子就有失火的危险。
这倒是挺烦人的。
因此我让我们家的副总裁——也就是我的丈夫——打电话给野生动物管理人员。
星期六的时候,他给第一家公司打电话,他们安排下星期四来处理。
然后他又给另一家公司打电话,他们说可以在星期一上午派人来看看。
(5)星期一上午来了两个抽烟的人。
他们抽完了烟,就大摇大摆地走进了前门廊。
“喂,小夫人!”他们其中的一位摆着一付约翰威恩式样子问到:“捣蛋鬼在什么地方?”(6)我很不自然地指了指门廊的顶部,现在那儿放了一小块写着“欢迎来访”的脚垫。
我看见了洞里的育儿室,而这两个家伙把小松鼠掏出来扔到了雪地上。
我再一次强调让他们不要伤害她。
(7)他们怒气冲冲地说:“我们是慈善学会推荐的”,但是我注意到了他们把电棍放回了卡车,取而代之,拿出了一种有春天香味的除臭剂,在松鼠的窝里喷了几下。
他们告诉我松鼠不喜欢这种味道,因此会逃走。
对此我有点怀疑,因为这种味道挺好闻的。
(8)没有看到松鼠妈妈,所以他们就把洞给堵上了,然后跟我要了一张 250美元的支票,一溜烟地跑了。
他们还给了我一张保修卡。
我是比较容易受骗的那种人,因此我想跟我打交道的这家公司还算是挺有诚信的。
(9)他们走了不一会儿松鼠妈妈大老远的购物回来了。

研究生综合英语阅读教程译文及答案

Lesson Two Profiting from Friendships at Work参考译文工作友谊出效率[1] 研究表明,工作中的友谊可以提高员工对公司的责任感。
在美国进行的一次最新的研究系盖勒普组织的Q12工作场所评估。
[2] 对美国人的一次随机抽样调查发现,干活时有个最好的朋友会使一般性投入工作的人(“投入”在这里作“充分涉入”解)成为高度地投入工作的人。
[3] 在被调查的18岁以上的美国员工中,认同“干活时我有个最好的朋友”这一说法的人中有51%对工作很投入,而不认同的人中只有10%的人如此。
当然,对工作很投入的人,其工作成果要远远大于后一类。
[4] 此外,干活时有最好的朋友的人中,有75% 计划仍要在公司至少再干一年,相对没有最好朋友的人中,比例是51%。
[5] 友谊当然不是提高对公司责任感的唯一动力,但在工作时,它的作用胜过一些可能被视为更显而易见的刺激因素——工资和福利。
盖勒普资深研究主任詹姆斯·哈特纳说,纵观各个公司,盈利和忠于顾客是与工作单位中挚友的高出现率相关的。
[6] 别的调查也反映出这一规律。
(宾州大学)沃顿商学院的卡轮·耶恩教授1997年对《哈佛商业评论》杂志说,虽然一起干活的朋友们聊些和工作无关的事,但“他们的相互影响会更好地促进与工作有关的相互交流”。
[7] 为了证明这一点,耶恩和明尼阿波利斯德卡尔森管理学院的普瑞·普拉汉·沙阿助理教授设计了一项实验:设26个三人朋友小组和27个三人相识者小组,要求他们按具体指令建造模型。
结果,朋友小组平均完成9个模型,而相识者小组为2.45个。
耶恩说,朋友间能相互以一种建设性的方式对对方的想法提出异议。
但是相识者小组里,人们几乎都太客气了。
[8] 英国职业顾问萨莉·戴维斯指出,在我们快节奏的人生工作阶段,我们在越来越多地建立持久的友谊,甚至在办公室交上终生的朋友。
她的同伴彭纳、桑德斯和悉尼所作的研究表明,因为双职工家庭成为一种定式,传统的社会关系网瓦解,我们采取的是一种更以自我为中心的城市生活方式,所以,建立工作场所友谊关系的潜力在人才争夺战中是一件新式武器。

Lesson 11. For English is a killer. It is English that has killed off Cumbric, Cornish, Norn and Manx. There are still parts of these islands where sizeable communities speak languages that were there before English. Yet English is everywhere in everyday use and understood by all or virtually all, constituting such a threat to the three remaining Celtic languages, Irish, Scottish Gaelic, and Welsh... that their long-term future must be considered... very greatly at risk.因为英语是个杀手。
正是英语造成了康瑞克、康尼施、诺恩、曼科斯等语言的消亡。
在其中一部分岛上还有相当多的人使用在英语到来之前就已存在的语言。
然而,英语在日常生活中无处不在。
所有的人或几乎所有的人都懂英语。
英语对现存的凯尔特语——爱尔兰语、苏格兰盖尔语及威尔士语的威胁是如此之大,它们的未来岌岌可危。
2. He also associated such policies with a prejudice which he calls linguisticism (a condition parallel to racism and sexism). As Phillipson sees it, leading institutions and individuals within the predominantly "white" English-speaking world, have (by design or default) encouraged or at least tolerated—and certainly have not opposed—the hegemonic spread of English, a spread which began some three centuries ago as economic and colonial expansion.同时,他认为这些政策和他称之为语言歧视(和种族歧视、性别歧视的情况类似)的偏见密切相关。
在菲利普森看来,在以白人英语为主导的世界,最重要的机构和个人(有意或无意地)鼓励或者至少是容忍了(肯定没有反对)英语霸权主义式的传播。
