IV. Chinese Translation of Paragraphs1. 旅行好比私通:人总受到背叛自己国家的诱惑。
拥有想象力,必定意味着对自己生活的地方不再满意。
男人都有一种离心倾向,我们渴望旅行,恰似那些寻欢的情人。
2. 也只有在旅行之时,我们才赞赏古旧之物。
在国内——至少对美国人而言,所有东西都必须得是新近的。
但是我们走出国门的时候,却只对古老的东西感兴趣,因为我们想看看那些历经时间侵袭而保存下来的遗迹。
3. 我们旅行的时候,会放下戒备和忧虑,渴望回归过去;我们是向后倒退而非向前迈进;我们培养着自己的歇斯底里。
4. 我们旅行的时候会呈现出自己最好的一面,正如我们穿上自己最漂亮的衣服出行一般,只有我们的护照才会提醒我们,实际上自己是多么平淡无奇!我们出国去认识我们那个陌生的自己,那个诞生在飞机上且令人激动的陌生人。
我们去欧洲观赏那些借便利之名已经从我们的文化中废掉或剔除的一切:宗教、皇室、古雅、差异以及激情。
我们深信其他国家的人民比我们更加热情奔放。
5. 我们每个人都在伪装——不然缘何我们会戴上墨镜并在谈吐举止中尽力模仿另一个地方的本土居民呢?在家里,我们才做回自己;出国后,我们则尽力成为自己始终想做的人。
尽管最近大家都在谈论有关根的话题,但我们中的许多人都厌倦了自己的根,而这根本身也可能入土很浅,于是我们四处旅行,寻找无根的感觉。
6. 人变得好奇起来,旅行也就开始了。
教会的影响力、传统的生活方式、缺乏钱财、难得闲暇, 都制约了人们的好奇心。
直到17世纪,在科学发现的促进之下,物质世界的大门才被撬开。
也只有那时,人们才开始旅行,寻求世俗的快慰。
7. 旅行可增长见识,可洞悉本国或异域的文化,可造就现代人的厌倦感。
类似十字军东征的元素在现代旅行者身上依然存在,只不过他是个人出征,这是驱使他远离家乡,进行说不清道不明的精神征战的一种冲动。
8. 当然,旅行最普通的原因就是为了远离家乡。
弗洛伊德说我们旅行是为了逃离父亲和家庭,而我们也可以补充说是为了逃离我们熟悉的一切。

That behavior is a tricky business to predict was elegantly demonstrated by another study published in Science this month. A group of researchers at three universities---in Oregon, upstate New York and Edmonton, Alberta---ran a set of identical experiments on eight different mouse strains, each bred to show distinct behavioral attributes. The idea was to see whether they would act according to type. They didn’t. In some tests, genetically identical mice acted differently depended on the lab that tested them. A strain of mice lacking a receptor for the neurotransmitter serotonin---a substance whose imbalance has been implicated in various addictions and mood disorders---was expected to drink more alcohol and show more anxiety than the other mice strains. But all three teams found that the serotonin-mutants didn’t booze it up any more than the others. And all strains of mice tested in Alberta, it turned out, were mellower than the New York and Oregon mice. Must be the weather, eh?

Unit SixTwo Truths to Live ByHold fast, and let go:understand this paradox*, and you standat thevery gate of wisdomAlexander M. Schindler[ 1 ] The art of living is to know when to hold fast and when to let go. For life is a paradox: it enjoins* us to cling to* its many gifts even while it ordains* their eventual relinquishment*The rabbis* of old put it this way: "A man comes to this world with his fist clenched*, but when he dies, his hand is open."[1] 生活的秘诀在于懂得何时抓紧,何时放松。
因为人生就是一对矛盾:它既令我们抓紧人生的多种赐与,同时它又要我们到头来把这些赐与放弃。
老一辈犹太学者是这样说的:“ 一个人握紧拳头来到这个世界,但他却是松开手掌离开这世界的。
”[ 2 ] Surely we ought to hold fast to life, for it is wondrous*, and full of a beauty that breaks through* every pore* of God's own earth. We know that this is so, but all too often we recognize this truth only in our backward glance when we remember what it was and then suddenly realize that it is no more.[2] 毫无疑问,我们应该牢牢抓住生命,因为它奇妙,它有一种在上帝创造的世界里无孔不入、无处不在的美。

So now I had an income and an apartment (=flat公寓/ 住宅) in Manhattan: heaven (Paradise/ Eden) for a young woman from a small town on Long Island.[2] Like (prep.象) so many women of my generation (一代人), I went straight (directly) from college to secretarial (文秘) school to learn shorthand (速记), or speedwriting, despite (=in spite of) the fact that I had already co-written a book called New York on $5a Day《在纽约生活一天只花5元钱》.[3] As a former (the former前者, the latter后者;the former husband/ wife/ president)lefty (left-hander左撇子, 左翼分子) turned righty, thanks to an overzealous (过分热情的) teacher, I had distinctly (obviously显然) illegible (难辨认的, 字迹模糊的) handwriting (笔迹-> calligraphy书法)--so bad (poor learner差生=bad student坏学生) that after taking dictation (口授/ 听写to dictate a letter), I couldn't translate (make out看不清) it. The magazine was (The magazine was advertise->The magazine was advertisement->) advertising dependent (靠/ 依赖的), so in letters to the heads of major corporations (公司, 企业), I was told to offer (give) them the opportunity to place (put) their ads (advertisements) in four colors in our magazine for the mere (only) price of $10,000. Inadvertently (Carelessly不注意地), the d in ads became an s, and the president of one of those big companies was invited to "have his ass (屁股) in four colors" in our publication (出版物).[4] Guess what (what might/ would happen)? I was fired (dismissed), but luck showed her face (miracle took place). The editor was desperate for [was in bad need (want) of 急需] a copywriter (广告撰稿人). I was heading for the door, dejected (sad/ depressed沮丧的, 灰心的), afraid of (=feared) what my parents would think, when (suddenly) I heard her call out, "You--Joan! Can you write (写作能力) better than you can type (打字)?" I said, "Yes, of course." A copywriter was born.[5] When the magazine folded (failed倒闭), I got a chance to audition (interview试听/ 面试) for a two-hour daily radio program (节目) on a major (important) New York station. To everyone's surprise (n.), I got the job.[6] One day, a new [present: (1)礼物;(2)在场的;(3)再现历史事实;表演->] presence (person) arrived at the station, a female program director (节目编导). This large(魁梧) and formidable (强大的, 令人敬畏的) woman came to work every day with an equally large and formidable German (sheep + herd->herdsman牧师->) shepherd (牧羊犬). I thought I was doing a great job. She (the woman, not the dog) decided she didn't like me. When she called me into her office one Friday afternoon, she simply (only) said, "You're fired!" leaving (making) me to wonder what had gone so terribly wrong.[7] Six months later, after calling every program director (编导) in town, I went to work for another major-market radio station, doing four-minute stories for a low $15 each. With two young children and a husband who was just starting his own career, I took a chance.[8] Today, some (=about) 28 years later, I am still at WOR Radio2 with a two-hour daily talk show (脱口秀/ 谈话节目) interviewing celebrities, authors and politicians, imparting (=offering) information to more than a million listeners a week and loving every minute of it.[9] I was young when those firings happened, but the process [(1)工艺工序;(2)加工, e.g. word processor文字编辑软件] is still the same. Firings know no (=pay no attention to) age or gender. This is exactly what Sherrye Henry did.[10] Sherrye, returning home to New York City after a successful political career with the Clinton Administration (当局/ 政府) and working on the Hill3, was looking forward to (期待) a change of pace (speed/ rate步伐/ 节奏/ 节律) as a development officer (开发部经理) for a large nonprofit. When the organization hit (=met) turbulent financial water4, and she was the last one in, she was the first one out (最后加盟的人最先被裁员). Says Sherrye, "This wasn't the first job I had lost. Hard as it is (Although it is difficult), one (anybody/ everybody) must remember that there is always life after losing a job." Helpfulfriends, tenacity (坚韧), good luck and a good resume got (made) Sherrye back on track (回到正轨,找到工作). Within a month, she landed (got) what she calls the most satisfying job of her life: raising money (筹集捐款) for Episcopal (主教的, 主教制度的, 英国国教的) Relief (aid) and Development5, which provides emergency (紧急的) assistance to people in 40 countries.[11] (Pauline<->) Paul Jones has a different story. He had started at what is now JPMorgan Chase6 (摩根大通银行) as a high school student and climbed through the ranks to vice president. His 31-year career ended when his job was outsourced (arrange for sb outside a company to do work or provide goods for that company外包) to India. Paul was only in his 40s, and although there was no pension, he was offered (given) a two-year buyout [全部买下(市上产品)]. With the children out of school (Their children were independent), he and his wife made a decision: no more corporate (connected with a corporation) stress. They would do their own thing. Paul recently started a business developing and marketing cognac (a type of fine brandy made in western France) for the female market. He is his own boss, and he is filled with a new sense (feeling) of adventure and excitement. "Had they not pushed me out," he says, "I would still be there waiting for任人宰割)."[12] Lynn Sherr, ABC’s7(reward酬劳<->) award (奖金)-winning television correspondent (通讯员), writes in Outside the Box (置身事外), her autobiography, that she was gainfully employed (高薪挖走) at WCBS-TV8 in New York when (=suddenly) someone handed (gave) her the early edition of the Post (邮报). In the back, there was a story stating (saying) that Lynn Sherr was leaving CBS9 to write a book. Thinking that it was aruse (trick诡计) to keep her in line (control her), she didn't worry, but then her news director's deputy called: "Your contract is not being renewed, and you won't be on the air anymore. You can pick up your stuff (物品) at any time."[13] Says Lynn, "I felt like a failure (=wretch)." Worse yet (still), when an unnamed executive (执行编辑) was asked why he let her go, he answered, "Her shoulders were too wide for a closeup shot (photo/ picture近照)."[14] "In retrospect (thinking about a past event or situation)," Lynn writes, "I was only 32, and it did turn out (prove证明) to be the best thing that ever happened to me. It proved I could stand on my own (live independently) and not give up. It was about breaking out in order to break into the next level (不破不立)." She landed (was employed) at ABC News, covering political campaigns (a series of planned activities that are intended to achieve a particular social, commercial or political aim战役/运动/活动), conventions (traditions) and special events.[15] Each of these people found a way back to a (full + fill->) fulfilling (successful) career. And they all (=without exception) learned that the pain and humiliation (insult/ embarrassment) are temporary. So don't be afraid to move on and try your wings (振翅飞翔). Rally [动员/ 调动vt. 重整旗鼓; n. 集会) your support system (支援系统). Persevere (vt.坚持-> Perseverance: n.)! Firing doesn't mean your life is over (人生到了尽头). It might turn out (prove) to be the best thing that ever happened to you.Notes1. Joan Hamburg: Born on August 12, 1935, she is a radio personality (person人->personal个人的-> personnel人事) on WOR radio station in New York since the early 1970s. Hamburg is extremely famous, and show-business-conscious (奇才), and now bills (lists) herself as "America's foremost (most important) shopper and celebrity interviewer (host主持人)."2.

英专综合教程6册课文翻译及课后答案Answertounit6
IV. Chinese Transla tion of Paragra phs1. 旅行好比私通:人总受到背叛自己国家的诱惑。
拥有想象力,必定意味着对自己生活的地方不再满意。
男人都有一种离心倾向,我们渴望旅行,恰似那些寻欢的情人。
2. 也只有在旅行之时,我们才赞赏古旧之物。
在国内——至少对美国人而言,所有东西都必须得是新近的。
但是我们走出国门的时候,却只对古老的东西感兴趣,因为我们想看看那些历经时间侵袭而保存下来的遗迹。
3. 我们旅行的时候,会放下戒备和忧虑,渴望回归过去;我们是向后倒退而非向前迈进;我们培养着自己的歇斯底里。
4. 我们旅行的时候会呈现出自己最好的一面,正如我们穿上自己最漂亮的衣服出行一般,只有我们的护照才会提醒我们,实际上自己是多么平淡无奇!我们出国去认识我们那个陌生的自己,那个诞生在飞机上且令人激动的陌生人。
我们去欧洲观赏那些借便利之名已经从我们的文化中废掉或剔除的一切:宗教、皇室、古雅、差异以及激情。
我们深信其他国家的人民比我们更加热情奔放。
5. 我们每个人都在伪装——不然缘何我们会戴上墨镜并在谈吐举止中尽力模仿另一个地方的本土居民呢?在家里,我们才做回自己;出国后,我们则尽力成为自己始终想做的人。
尽管最近大家都在谈论有关根的话题,但我们中的许多人都厌倦了自己的根,而这根本身也可能入土很浅,于是我们四处旅行,寻找无根的感觉。
6. 人变得好奇起来,旅行也就开始了。
教会的影响力、传统的生活方式、缺乏钱财、难得闲暇, 都制约了人们的好奇心。
直到17世纪,在科学发现的促进之下,物质世界的大门才被撬开。
也只有那时,人们才开始旅行,寻求世俗的快慰。
7. 旅行可增长见识,可洞悉本国或异域的文化,可造就现代人的厌倦感。
类似十字军东征的元素在现代旅行者身上依然存在,只不过他是个人出征,这是驱使他远离家乡,进行说不清道不明的精神征战的一种冲动。
