Unit 1 恰到好处Have you ever watched a clumsy man hammering a nail into a box? He hits it first to one side, then to another, perhaps knocking it over completely, so that in the end he only gets half of it into the wood. A skillful carpenter, on the other hand, will drive the nail with a few firm, deft blows, hitting it each time squarely on the head. So with language; the good craftsman will choose words that drive home his point firmly and exactly. A word that is more or less right, a loose phrase, an ambiguous expression, a vague adjective (模糊的形容词), will not satisfy a writer who aims at clean English. He will try always to get the word that is completely right for his purpose.你见过一个笨手笨脚的男人往箱子上钉钉子吗?只见他左敲敲,右敲敲,说不准还会将整个钉子锤翻,结果敲来敲去到头来只敲进了半截。

而娴熟的木匠就不这么干。

他每敲一下都会坚实巧妙地正对着钉头落下去,一钉到底。

语言也是如此。

一位优秀的艺术家谴词造句上力求准确而有力地表达自己的观点。

Entertaining Humor —What's Funny?享受幽默——什么东西令人开怀?Donald M. Huffman[1] The joy of laughing at a funny story isuniversal, probably as old as language itself. But, what is it that makes a story or a joke funny? funny听了一个有趣的故事会发笑、很开心,古今中外都一样。

这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。

那么,到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢?[2] As one who has enjoyed humor since I first recognized it, I've made an attempt to explain and discuss humor with students in such diverse cultures as Latin America and China. I've done some serious thinking about funny stories. It has been a labor of love !humor 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人,因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。

这些学生文化差异很大,有来自拉丁美洲的,也有来自中国的。

我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。

这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。

[3] Why is it that several students in aclass will fall out of their chairs laughingafter I tell a joke while the rest of thestudents look as if I've just read the weather report? Obviously some people are more sensitive to humor than others. And, we recognize that some people tell jokes very well while others struggleto say something funny. We've all heard people say, "I like jokes, but I can't tellone well, and I can never remember them." Some people have a better sense of humor than others just as some people have more musical talent , mathematical talent, etc. than others. A truly funny person has a joke for every occasion, and when one is told, that triggers an entire string of jokes from that person's memory bank. A humorless person is not likely to be the most popular person in a group. It is reasonable to say that the trulyhumorous individual is not only wellliked, but is often the focus of attention inany gathering.human's different reactions (to joke); comparison (humorous vs. humorless people)为什么听我讲完一个笑话后,班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合,而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢?显然,有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。

在生活中,没有什么比顿悟更令人激动和兴奋的,它可以改变一个人---------不仅仅是改变,而且变得更好。

当然,这种顿悟是很罕见的,但仍然可以发生在我们所有人身上。

它有时来自一本书,一个说教或一行诗歌,有时也来自一个朋友。

在曼哈顿一个寒冷的冬天下午,我坐在一个法国小餐馆,倍感失落和压抑。

因为几次误算,在我生命中一个至关重要的项目就这样落空了。

就因为这样,甚至连期望看到一个老朋友(我常常私下亲切的想到的一个老人)的情形都不像以前那样令我兴奋。

我坐在桌边,皱起眉头看着色彩多样的桌布,清醒地嚼着苦涩的食物。

他穿过街道,过着旧棉袄,一顶帽子从光头打下来,看上去不像是一个有名的精神病医生,倒像是一个精力充沛的侏儒。

他的办公室在附近到处都有,我知道他刚刚离开他最后一个病人。

他接近80岁,但仍然扛着一个装着满满文件的公文包,工作起来仍然像一个大公司的主管,无论何时有空,他都仍然爱去高尔夫球场。

当他走过来坐在我旁边时,服务员早已把他总是要喝的啤酒端了过来。

我已经几个月没有见他了,但他似乎还是老样子。

没有任何寒暄,他就问我“怎么了,年轻人?”我已经不再对他的样子感到奇怪,所以我详细地把烦恼告诉他。

带着一丝忧伤的自豪,我尽量说出实情,除了我自己,我并没有因为失望而责备任何人。

我分析了整件事情,但所有负面评价以及错误仍然继续。

我降了约有十分钟,这期间老人只是默默的喝着啤酒。

我讲完后,他取下眼镜说:“到我的办公室去。

”“到你的办公室?你忘了带什么了吗?”他和蔼的说“不是,我想看看你对某些事情的反应,仅此而已。

”外面开始下起小雨,但他的办公室很温暖,舒服,亲切:放满书的书架靠着墙壁,长皮沙发Sigmund佛洛依德的亲笔签名照,还有墙边放着的录音笔。

他的秘书已经回家了,只有我们在那里。

老人从纸盒里拿出一盘磁带放进录音笔,然后说:“这里面有到我这里来求助的三个人的简单录音,当然,这没有说明具体是那三个人。

In his essay George Orwell starts off by ci ng Bernard Shaw’s remark that people are more supers ous today than they were in the Middle Ages.They promptly accept the opinions of experts without asking any ques ons themselves.Obviously Shaw exaggerates just in order to prove his point that we should not always fall back on the theories of well-known authori es.Rather,we should aim at finding out some things for ourselves.By way of illustra on,Orwell outline arguments against the Flat Earth and the Oval Earth theories,thus throwing light on the fact that much of our knowledege actually rests on authority rather than on reasoning or on experiment.Finally,Orwell draws his conclusion that ours is acredulous age partly because we have such an excep onally heavy burden of knowledge. 1) 萧伯纳在他一个剧本的前言中提出这样的看法:今天人们比在中世纪时更加迷信。 In the preface to one of his plays, Bernard Shaw advances the idea that people are more

大学英语精读第三版第四册课文及课文翻译Unit 1TextTwo college-age boys, unaware that making money usually involves hard work, are tempted by an advertisement that promises them an easy way to earn a lot of money. The boys soon learn that if something seems to good to be true, it probably is.BIG BUCKS THE EASY W AYJohn G. Hubbell"You ought to look into this," I suggested to our two college-age sons. "It might be a way to avoid the indignity of having to ask for money all the time." I handed them some magazines in a plastic bag someone bad hung on our doorknob. A message printed on the bag offered leisurely, lucrative work ("Big Bucks the Easy Way!") of delivering more such bags."I don't mind the indignity," the older one answered."I can live with it," his brother agreed."But it pains me," I said,"to find that you both have been panhandling so long that it no longer embarrasses you."The boys said they would look into the magazine-delivery thing. Pleased, I left town on a business trip. By midnight I was comfortably settled in a hotel room far from home. The phone rang. It was my wife. She wanted to know how my day had gone."Great!" I enthused. "How was your day?" I inquired."Super!" She snapped. "Just super! And it's only getting started. Another truck just pulled up out front.""Another truck?""The third one this evening. The first delivered four thousand Montgomery Wards. The second brought four thousand Sears, Roebucks. I don't know what this one has, but I'm sure it will be four thousand of something. Since you are responsible, I thought you might like to know what's happening.What I was being blamed for, it turned out, was a newspaper strike which made it necessary to hand-deliver the advertising inserts that normally are included with the Sunday paper. The company had promised our boys $600 for delivering these inserts to 4,000 houses by Sunday morning."Piece of cake!" our older college son had shouted." Six hundred bucks!" His brother had echoed, "And we can do the job in two hours!""Both the Sears and Ward ads are four newspaper-size pages," my wife informed me. "There are thirty-two thousand pages of advertising on our porch. Even as we speak, two big guys are carrying armloads of paper up the walk. What do we do about all this?""Just tell the boys to get busy," I instructed. "They're college men. They'll do what they have to do."At noon the following day I returned to the hotel and found an urgent message to telephone my wife. Her voice was unnaturally high and quavering. There had been several more truckloads of ad inserts. "They're for department stores, dime stores, drugstores, grocery stores, auto stores and so on. Some are whole magazine sections. We have hundreds of thousands, maybe millions, of pages of advertising here! They are crammed wall-to-wall all through the house in stacks taller than your oldest son. There's only enough room for people to walk in, take one each of the eleveninserts, roll them together, slip a rubber band around them and slide them into a plastic bag. We have enough plastic bags to supply every takeout restaurant in America!" Her voice kept rising, as if working its way out of the range of the human ear. "All this must be delivered by seven o'clock Sunday morning.""Well, you had better get those guys banding and sliding as fast as they can, and I'll talk to you later. Got a lunch date.When I returned, there was another urgent call from my wife."Did you have a nice lunch?" she asked sweetly. I had had a marvelous steak, but knew better by now than to say so."Awful," I reported. "Some sort of sour fish. Eel, I think.""Good. Your college sons have hired their younger brothers and sisters and a couple of neighborhood children to help for five dollars each. Assembly lines have been set up. In the language of diplomacy, there is 'movement.'""That's encouraging.""No, it's not," she corrected. "It's very discouraging. They're been as it for hours. Plastic bags have been filled and piled to the ceiling, but all this hasn't made a dent, not a dent, in the situation! It's almost as if the inserts keep reproducing themselves!""Another thing," she continued. "Your college sons must learn that one does not get the best out of employees by threatening them with bodily harm.Obtaining an audience with son NO. 1, I snarled, "I'll kill you if threaten one of those kids again! Idiot! You should be offering a bonus of a dollar every hour to the worker who fills the most bags."But that would cut into our profit," he suggested."There won't be any profit unless those kids enable you to make all the deliveries on time. If they don't, you two will have to remove all that paper by yourselves. And there will be no eating or sleeping until it is removed."There was a short, thoughtful silence. Then he said, "Dad, you have just worked a profound change in my personality.""Do it!""Yes, sir!"By the following evening, there was much for my wife to report. The bonus program had worked until someone demanded to see the color of cash. Then some activist on the work force claimed that the workers had no business settling for $5 and a few competitive bonuses while the bossed collected hundreds of dollars each. The organizer had declared that all the workers were entitled to $5 per hour! They would not work another minute until the bosses agreed.The strike lasted less than two hours. In mediation, the parties agreed on $2 per hour. Gradually, the huge stacks began to shrink.As it turned out, the job was completed three hours before Sunday's 7 a.m. deadline. By the time I arrived home, the boys had already settled their accounts: $150 in labor costs, $40 for gasoline, and a like amountfor gifts—boxes of candy for saintly neighbors who had volunteered station wagons and help in delivery and dozen roses for their mother. This left them with $185 each — about two-thirds the minimum wage for the 91 hours they worked. Still, it was "enough", as one of them put it, to enable them to "avoid indignity" for quite a while.All went well for some weeks. Then one Saturday morning my attention was drawn to the odd goings-on of our two youngest sons. They kept carrying carton after carton from various corners of the house out the front door to curbside. I assumed their mother had enlisted them to remove junk for a trash pickup. Then I overheard them discussing finances."Geez, we're going to make a lot of money!""We're going to be rich!"Investigation revealed that they were offering " for sale or rent" our entire library."No! No!" I cried. "You can't sell our books!""Geez, Dad, we thought you were done with them!""You're never 'done' with books," I tried to explain."Sure you are. You read them, and you're done with them. That's it. Then you might as well make a little money from them. We wanted to avoid the indignity of having to ask you for……"一个大学男孩,不清楚赚钱需要付出艰苦的劳动,被一份许诺轻松赚大钱的广告吸引了。

Unit4 [见教材P61]Writing Between the Lines阅读时要做读书笔记Mortimer J. Adler(U.S.)莫迪摩尔.J.阿德勒(美国)①You know you have to read “between the lines” to get the most out of anything.②I want to persuade you to do something equally important in the course of your reading.③I want to persuade you to “write between the lines.”④Unless you do, you are not likely to do the most efficient kind of reading.①你很清楚,为了能够最充分地理解,你必须要能听读懂言外之意。

②现在,我想建议你在阅读时也要做同等重要的事,那就是建议你在阅读时做读书笔记,否则你的阅读不大可能是最有效的。

①I contend, quite bluntly, that marking up a book is not an act of mutilation but of love.①坦白说,我认为,人们阅读时在书上做笔记不是毁书,而是爱书。

① There are two ways in which you can own a book. ② The first is the property right[you establish by paying for it], just as you pay for clothes and furniture.③But this act of purchase is only the prelude to possession.④Full ownership comes only when you have made it a part of yourself, and the best way to make yourself a part of it is by writing in it. ⑤An illustration may make the point clear.⑥You buy a beefsteak and transfer it from the butcher,s icebox to your own. ⑦But you do not own the beefsteak in the most important senseuntil you consume it and get it into your bloodstream.⑧I am arguing that books, too, must be absorbed in your bloodstream to do you any good.①人们可以通过两种方式来拥有一本书。

Perri Klass[Lead in][1] In college, my friend Beth was very ambitious, not only for herself but for her friends. She was interested in foreign relations, in travel, in going to law school. “I plan to be Secretary of State someday,”she would say matter-of-factly. One mutual friend was studying literature, planning to go to graduate school; he would be the Chairman of the Yale English department. Another friend was interested in political journalism and would someday edit?Time?magazine. I was a biology major. And I was interested in writing fiction. we were all smart-ass (自作聪明的滑头) college freshmen, pretending the world was ours. We were smart college freshmen, and why should we limit our ambitions?在大学, 我的朋友贝丝是非常有野心的, 不仅为自己, 也为她的朋友。

她对外交关系、旅行、去法学院感兴趣。

"我计划有朝一日成为国务卿," 她说得很实事求是。

我们一个共同的朋友在学习文学, 计划去研究生院;他将成为耶鲁大学英语系的系主任。

另一位朋友对政治新闻感兴趣, 有朝一日会编辑《时代》杂志。

我是主修生物学的我对写小说感兴趣。

我们都是自作聪明的滑头大学新生, 假装世界是我们的。

我们是聪明的大学新生, 我们为什么要限制我们的野心?[3] I’ve always liked ambitious people, and many of my closest friends have had grandiose (宏大的) dreams. I like such people, not because I am desperate to be buddies with a future Secretary of State but because I find ambitious people entertaining, interesting to talk to, fun to watch. And, of course, I like such people because I am ambitious myself, and I would rather not feel apologetic about it.???我一直喜欢雄心勃勃的人, 我的许多最亲密的朋友都有宏大的。

我喜欢这样的人, 不是因为我渴望和未来的国务卿做朋友, 而是因为我发现和有野心的人谈话很愉快很有趣, , 只是看着也很有乐趣。

当然, 我喜欢这样的人, 因为我也是个有野心的人, 我不想对此感到愧疚。

????????[4] Ambition has gotten bad press. Back in the seventeenth century, Spinoza thought ambition and lust were “nothing but species of madness, although they are not enumerated?among diseases.”Especially in women, ambition has often been seen as a profoundly dislikable quality; the word “ambitious”linked to a “career woman”suggested that she was ruthless, hard as nails, clawing her way to success on top of the bleeding bodies of her friends.野心已经有了负面报道。

早在第十七世纪, 斯宾诺莎认为野心和欲望 "只是一种疯狂的物种, 虽然它们没有在疾病中被列举出来。

特别是在女性中, 野心往往被视为一种十分不讨人喜欢的品质; "野心" 一词与 "职业女性" 联系在一起, 表明她是无情的, 像钉子一样坚硬, 她是在朋友们的流血的身体之上谋取成功的。

[5] Then, in the late seventies and the eighties, ambition became desirable, as books with titles like?How to Stomp Your Way to Success?became bestsellers. It was still a nasty sort of attribute, butnasty attributes were good because they helped you look out for number one.然后, 在七十年代末和八十年代, 随着带着“如何踏着沉重的步子走向成功”标题的书籍成为畅销书,野心变得可取了。

但它仍然是一个恶劣的属性, 但恶劣的属性是好的, 因为它们帮助你多替自己着想。

[6] But what I mean by ambition is dreaming big dreams, putting no limits on your expectations and your hopes. I don’t really like very specific, attainable??ambitions, the kind you learn to set in the career-strategy course taught by the author of?How to Stomp Your Way to Success. I like big ambitions that suggest that the world could open up at any time, with work and luck and determination. The next book could hit it big. The next research project could lead to something fantastic. The next bright idea could change history.但我所指的野心是有远大的梦想, 不去限制你的期望和希望。

我真的不喜欢非常具体的, 可实现的 (可实现的) 的野心,就是你在职业战略课程中学到的,由“如何踏着沉重的步子走向成功”的作者所教那种野心。

我喜欢大的野心, 这意味着,世界可以在任何时候开放, 工作, 运气和决心。

下一本书会取得巨大成就。

下一个研究项目可能会带来意想不到的东西。

下一个灵光一现的想法可能会改变历史。

[7] Of course, eventually you have to stop being a freshman in college. You limit your ambitions and become more realistic, wiser about your potential, your abilities, and the number of things your life can hold. Sometimes you get close to something you wanted to do, only to find it looks better from far away. Back when I was a freshman, to tell the truth, I wanted to be Jane Goodall?(珍妮·古道尔), go into the jungle to study monkeys and learn things no one had ever dreamed of. This ambition was based on an interest in biology and several?NationalGeographic?television specials; it turned out that wasn’t enough of a basis for a life. There were a number of other early ambitions th at didn’t *pan out?(成功)?either. I was not fated?(命中注定的)?to live a wild, adventurous life, to travel alone to all the most exotic?(异国的)?parts of the world, to leave behind a string of broken hearts. Oh well, you have to grow up, at least a little.当然, 最终你必须停止成为大学新生。

你限制了你的野心, 变得更现实, 更明智, 你的潜能, 你的能力, 和你的生活能容纳多少东西。

有时你会接近你想做的事情, 但却发现从远处看它看起来更好。

当我还是大一的时候, 说实话, 我想成为简·古德 (珍妮·古道尔), 去丛林里学习猴子, 学习没有人梦想过的东西。

这一雄心的基础是对生物学的兴趣和几个国家地理电视特辑;结果是生活的基础不够。

还有许多其他早期的野心也没有成功。

我不是命中注定 (命中注定的) 过着狂野、冒险的生活, 独自前往世界上最奇异的 (异国的) 的地方, 留下一串颗破碎的心。

哦, 你必须长大, 至少有一点。

[11] The world is full of disappointed people. Some of them probably never had much ambition to start with; they sat back and waited for something good and feel cheated because it never happened. Some of them had very set, specific ambitions and, for one reason or another, never got what they wanted. Others got what they wanted but found it wasn’t exactly what they’d expected it to be.这个世界充满了失望的人们。
