大学英语精读第二册UnitFive讲解
大学英语精读第二册UnitFive讲解大学英语精读第二册Unit Five讲解导语：你玩过Yo-yo吗，下面是一篇关于Yo-yo的英语课文，欢迎大家学习!TEXTSeen through the eyes of a young friend Einstein was a simple, modest and ordinary man.The professor and the Yo-yoMy father was a close friend of Albert Einstein. As a shy young visitor to Einstein's home, I was made to feel at ease when Einstein said, "I have something to show you." He went to his desk and returned with a Yo-Yo. He tried to show me how it worked but he couldn't make it roll back up the string. When my turn came, I displayed my few tricks and pointed out to him that the incorrectly looped string had thrown the toy off balance. Einstein nodded, properly impressed by my skill and knowledge. Later, I bought a new Yo-Yo and mailed it to the Professor as a Christmas present, and received a poem of thanks.As boy and then as an adult, I never lost my wonder at the personality that was Einstein. He was the only person I knew who had come to terms with himself and the world around him. He knew what he wanted and he wanted only this: to understand within his limits as a human being the nature of the universe and the logic and simplicity in its functioning. He knew there were answers beyond his intellectual reach. But this did not frustrate him. He was content to go as far as he could.In the 23 years of our friendship, I never saw him show jealousy, vanity, bitterness, anger, resentment, or personal ambition. He seemed immune to these emotions. He was beyondany pretension. Although he corresponded with many of the world's most important people, his stationery carried only a watermark - W - for Woolworth's.To do his work he needed only a pencil only a pencil and a pad of paper. Material things meant nothing to him. I never knew him to carry money because he never had any use for it. He believed in simplicity, so much so that he used only a safety razor and water to shave. When I suggested that he try shaving cream, he said, "The razor and water do the job.""But Professor, why don't you try the cream just once?" I argued. "It makes shaving smoother and less painful."He shrugged. Finally, I presented him with a tube of shaving cream. The next morning when he came down to breakfast, he was beaming with the pleasure of a new, great discovery. "You know, that cream really works," he announced. "It doesn't pull the beard. It feels wonderful." Thereafter, he used the shaving cream every morning until the tube was empty. Then he reverted to using plain water.Einstein was purely and exclusively a theorist. He didn't have the slightest interest in the practical application of his ideas and theories. His E=mc2 is probably the most famous equation in history - yet Einstein wouldn't walk down the street to see a reactor create atomic energy. He won the Nobel Prize for his Photoelectric Theory, a series of equations that he considered relatively minor in importance, but he didn't have any curiosity in observing how his theory made TV possible.My brother once gave the Professor a toy, a bird that balanced on the edge of a bowl of water and repeatedly dunked its head in the water. Einstein watched it in delight, trying to deduce the operating principle. But be couldn't.The next morning he announced, "I had thought about that bird for a long time before I went to bed and it must work this way…" He began a ling explanation. Then he stopped, realizing a flaw in his reasoning. "No, I guess that's not it," he said. He pursued various theories for several days until I suggested we take the toy apart to see how it did work. His quick expression of disapproval told me he did not agree with this practical approach. He never did work out the solution.Another puzzle that Einstein could never understand was his own fame. He had developed theories that were profound and capable of exciting relatively few scientists. Yet his name was a household word across the civilized world. "I've had good ideas, and so have other men," he once said. "But it's been my good fortune that my ideas have been accepted." He was bewildered by his fame: people wanted to meet him; strangers stared at him on the street; scientists, statesmen, students, and housewives wrote him letters. He never could understand why he received this attention, why he was singled out as something special.

Memoria Technica (记忆法)Listen to the following passage, “Dutch Treat”, and try to catch the key words and details, then retell them in your own words:Dutch TreatThe phrase “Dutch Treat” can sometimes pull you out of a group of four and had an expensive diner.Well, the waiter brings the check shortly after you have offered to pay for the diner. You look at the check and shocked at the total cost. Whew! Slowly you pick up the check, but the only other man in the group says: “Just a minute. Let me take it.”Off course, he does not mean it, and feels safe in making the offer because you have already agreed to pay the check.. You both struggle,weakly, to pick up the bill. You have a way out. You say, “Let’s go Dutch,” or “Dutch Treat”. And so you both find a way out of the hole you dug for yourselves.Going Dutch or Dutch treat, simply means that everybody pays for himself. Why Dutch? Your guess is as good as mine.As it is well known, the English and Dutch fought bitterly in the 1660s for control of the seas. At the time the English settled in the New World, their hatred for the Dutch was intense and it was shown in the times they said about them:One expression is a “Dutch Bargain, meaning a one-sided exchange –the Dutch giving too little and asking too much. The English used the name Dutch in many other unpleasant ways. “To talk Dutch” or “Double Dutch” means to talk nonsense.Stenography (口译笔记)Read the first part of Unit 5 of your Textbook, to understand the structure of stenography, its four types of organization and two types of noting.A.Read the First part, “Reading Prelude” of Uni t 5 of the textbook..B.Review the Signs and continue to study stenography (2): Big Wordsand Place–name Abbreviations.（1）Method of Abbreviation for Big WordsWord Suffix Short Hand Sample… tion n Composition Cmp… ism m Socialism S… a ble bl Immovable M… ing g Interesting Inter… cal cl Economical Eco… ianºTechnician Tech（2） Abbreviation for Country (place)-NamesAbbreviation Country Name AA AustraliaAF AfghanistanAR ArgentinaB BelguimBM MurmaBR BrazilCA CanadaCN ChinaCU CubaD Germany (Deutchland)DK DenmarkE (S)SpainF FranceHK Hong KongI ItalyIK IraqIN IndiaIR IranIRL IrelandJ JapanK Korea-K South KoreaK-North KoreaMA MalaysiaME MexicoNZ New ZealandPH The PhilippinesPK PakistanPL PolandRM RomaniaSGP SingaporeTH ThailandUS The United StatesUK The United Kingdom(Britain)VT Vietnam（3） Example:Ladies and Gentlemen, I regard it as a great honor to announce the opening of Shanghai Exhibition.

Unit Five 礼仪性口译（英译汉）Interpreting ceremonial speeches English-Chinese Interpretation 5-1故地重游Revisiting the Old HauntLadies and gentlemen,女士们、先生们：Permit me first to thank you, our Chinese hosts, for your extraordinary arrangements and hospitality. My wife and I, as well as our entire party, are deeply grateful.首先，请允许我感谢中国主人的精心安排与好客。
我与我夫人以及我团的全体随行人员都深为感激。
In the short period of six days, we have gone a longer distance than the world-renowned “Long March”. We have acquired a keen sense of the diversity, dynamism, and progress of China under your policies of reform and opening to the outside world.在短暂的6天里，我们的行程超过了举世闻名的“长征”。
在改革开放政策引导下的中国，气象万千，充满活力，不断进步，这些我们都已强烈地感受到了。
My wife and I have a special regard and personal friendship for the people of China. Beijing is for us and old and nostalgic memorable time with the people here—working, shopping, sightseeing, and touring the city on our bicycles. During that time we never experienced anything other than the utmost courtesy and genuine friendship of the Chinese people.我与我夫人对中国人民怀有一种特殊的敬慕之情和个人友谊。
对我们两人来说，北京是我们思念的故乡。
10年前我们在此生活期间，我们与这里的人们一起度过了许多难忘的时光—我们在这里工作、购物、观光、骑自行车逛城。
在那段日子里，我们所感受到的总是中国人民的高度礼貌和诚挚友情。
Those were happy days. They were good days, important days. We were part of the dramatic process which brought us back together and set us on the road to a genuine friendly and cooperative relationship.那是一些令人愉快的日子，一些美好的日子，一些意义重大的日子。
我们参与了富有戏剧性的转变过程，这种转变使我们重新走到一起，使我们踏上了一条通往建立一种真诚友好的合作关系的道路。
Our friendly and cooperative ties have become extensive, affecting all aspect of our national lives: commerce, culture, education, and scientific exchange.我们友好合作关系的领域十分广泛，已深入到我们国家生活的所有方面：商业、文化、教育，以及科学交流。
I am most proud of the large number of Chinese students being educated in exchange in my country. I myself teach some of them and see the benefits that come from this exchange. At the same time we are learning valuable lessons from you.大批中国学生通过交流正在我国学习，我对此深感自豪。
我自己也给一些学生上课，亲眼目睹了这种交流所产生的益处。
与此同时，我们也从你们身上汲取了宝贵的经验。
Nonetheless, problems remain in our economic, education and strategic relations. While we are not so naïve as to believe that there are no issues of difference between us, I also believe that our differences are greatly overshadowed by issues which bind us and strengthen our relationship.然而，在我们经济、教育以及战略关系中仍然存在着问题。
一方面，我们不会天真地以为我们之间不存在分歧，另一方面，我也认为那些将我们联系在一起并且强化我们关系的事务，在很大程度上弱化了我们之间的差异。
As a former government leader and now a private citizen, I recognize that many of the burdens and opportunities of our relationship have now passed to the non-governmental sectors of our twosocieties: to individuals, our corporations, universities, research institutes, foundations, and so on. There is no doubt that our relations have reached a new stage. In this context, it is important for our two societies to search for areas of cooperation which clearly add to our mutual benefit.作为一名前政府领导人，现在的一名普通公民，我感到我们关系中的许多重任和机遇已转到两国的民间机构，如个人、公司、大学、研究院、基金会等。
毋庸讳言，我们的关系已进入了一个新的阶段。
在这种形势下，寻求显然可以增进互惠互利的合作领域对我们两国来说显得十分重要。
My visit is a symbol of the good faith with which we seek to build up the strength of our friendship, our cultural and commercial ties and our important strategic relationship. Events of the past decade have confirmed time and time again that our friendship and cooperation will continue to flourish and yield more fruits in the days to come.我的访问是良好诚意的象征，我们怀着这种良好诚意，希望在友谊的基础上建立文化和商业关系，建立重要的战略关系。
我们过去10年的交往一再证明，我们之间的友谊与合作将在未来岁月里持续发展并结出更多的果实。
5-2 愉悦之旅A pleasant tripRespected Your Excellency,尊敬的阁下，My Chinese friends,中国朋友们：Thank you very much for your kind words of welcome. This is a happy and memorable occasion for me personally as well as for the members of my delegation.我非常感谢阁下的友好欢迎词。
对我本人以及代表团所有成员来说，这是愉快而难忘的一天。
To come to China, one of the earliest cradles of civilization is, I suppose, the dream of many people the world over. I, therefore, feel very honoured to be your guest.访问古老文明摇篮之一的中国，我想这是世界上许多人梦寐以求的愿望。
因而，我为自己能成为贵国的客人而感到荣幸。
In accepting Your Excellency’s gracious invitation to visit this great country, I have had an excellent opportunity to renew old friendships and establish new contacts.我接受阁下的盛情邀请访问这个伟大的国家，使我有极好的机会来重温旧情，结交新友。
When we established our friendly and cooperative relations, we did so on the understanding that we would develop our friendship on the basis of mutual respect and equality, and mutual benefit. These are the principles on which we seek friendship with all peoples of the world. It is absolutely vital that all nations, big or small, strong or week, should conduct their relations with each other on these principles.我们过去建立友好合作关系时是基于这样一种认识，即我们要在相互尊重和平等互利的基础上发展我们的友谊。
