全新版大学英语综合教程3课文原文及翻译unit 3 The Land of the LockYears ago in America, it was customary for families to leave their doors unlocked, day and night. In this essay, Greene regrets that people can no longer trust each other and have to resort to elaborate security systems to protect themselves and their possessions.许多年前,在美国,家家户户白天黑夜不锁门是司空见惯的。

在本文中,格林叹惜人们不再相互信任,不得不凭借精密的安全设备来保护自己和财产。

The Land of the LockBob Greene1 In the house where I grew up, it was our custom to leave the front door on the latch at night. I don't know if that was a local term or if it is universal; "on the latch" meant the door was closed but not locked. None of us carried keys; the last one in for the evening would close up, and that was it.锁之国鲍伯·格林小时候在家里,我们的前门总是夜不落锁。

我不知道这是当地的一种说法还是大家都这么说;"不落锁"的意思是掩上门,但不锁住。

我们谁都不带钥匙;晚上最后一个回家的人把门关上,这就行了。

Post-ReadingReading Comprehension1. Understanding the Organization of the Text1) Introduction: (Para.1)Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people.2) Reasons why shyness can have a negative effect: (Para.2&3)People’s self-concept has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.People with high self-esteem usually act with confidence.People with low self-esteem are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others.3) Ways of overcoming shyness: (Para.4-15)i) Recognize your personal strengths and weaknesses.ii) Set reasonable goals.iii) Don’t waste time and energy on destructive feelings such as guilt and shame.iv) Don’t be afraid to speak up and give your point of view.v) Do not make negative comments about yourself.vi) Accept criticism thoughtfully.vii) Profit from failures and disappointments by viewing them as learning experiences.viii) Do not associate with people who make you feel inadequate.ix) Set aside time to relax, enjoy hobbies, and reevaluate your goals regularly.x) Practice being in social situations.4) Conclusion: (Para.16)The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential.2. Understanding Specific Information1) F2) F3) T4) T5) T6) F7) T8) F9) F10) T3. Group Discussion1) I think the most effective ways of overcoming shyness are the first and seventh ways. Recognizing our personal strengths and weaknesses is useful because if we know ourselves better, we can feel more self-confident. We can be more objective, instead of being blind. The seventh way is to profit from failures and disappointments as learning experiences. If we allow ourselves to get discouraged and sad when we fail, then we will feel more unsure of ourselves. But if we think of a failure as a learning experience, we are adopting a positive attitude. By analyzing objectively why we failed and planning how to set about doing things differently we will be more likely to succeed next time.2) Modesty is used to describe a reserved appraisal of one’s merits, abilities or success, e.g. she is very modest about her accomplishments. Shyness is used to describe the uncomfortable feeling one has in the company of others. It often implies a lack of self-confidence and a timid, reserved manner. Modesty is a good personality trait while shyness in many cases is undesirable.3) Yes, it is appropriate and normal to be shy in some circumstances: in the presence of teachers, your boss, your parents’ friends or your prospective in-laws; when you are dating someone, especially the first time; when you are with strangers; when you are in a new environment; when you’re facing a large audience.Vocabulary1. Self- is a prefix which means ―of, to or by oneself or itself.‖Words with the prefix self- that appear in the text: self-conscious, self-concept, self-assurance, self-worth, self-confidence, self-esteem, self-destructive, self-awareness, self-accept103fance, self-rejection, self-confident1) self-conscious (worried and embarrassed about what you look like or what other people think of you)2) self-confidence (belief in one’s own ability, power, judgment, etc.; confidence in oneself)3) self-esteem (the feeling that you are someone who deserves to be liked, respected, or4) self-destructive (with thoughts or actions that are counter to one’s own best interests)5) self-worth (the value you give to your life and achievements)6) self-concept (one’s conception or general idea of one’s own basic character and nature)7) self-awareness (realistic knowledge and judgment about oneself)8) self-assurance/self-confidence (the belief that you are able to deal with people and problems easily)2.

But Parrot told his wife to bring out all the hard and sharp, not the soft, things instead.16) His shell was broken into hundreds of pieces.2. Ekwefi is telling a story about Tortoise. Long long ago, there was a famine, and the birds got an invitation from the sky to attend a feast there. Tortoise learned about it and with his sweet tongue he persuaded the birds to take him with them and so each bird lent him a feather.103fTortoise cunningly thought of an idea that enabled him to have all the food by naming himself ―All of you.‖ When they reached the sky, they received a warm welcome and soon the food was presen ted to them. Then he asked one of the people in the sky: ―For whom have you prepared all this feast?‖ The man replied: ―For all of you.‖ So he ate almost all the best food. The birds became very angry and took back their feathers before flying home. Without feathers, he had to jump onto the ground and his shell was broken into pieces.3. Acting out the StorySampleBird A: How exciting! All of us are invited to the feast in the sky.Bird B: I just can’t wait. What do you think I should wear?Tortoise: Hello. Good morning. What are you excited about?Bird A: Didn’t you know that we are going to the sky?Bird B: And we are going to have a big dinner. What fun!Tortoise: How nice it is. What lucky guys. May I go with you? I’m sure we’ll have a lot of fun. Bird A: Yes, we’ll have great fun, but not you. We know you too well. You are full of cunning and you are ungrateful.Bird B: If we allow you to come with us, you will soon begin your mischief.Bird A: We know you of old.Tortoise: You don’t know me now. I’m a changed man. I am not the mischievous man you once knew. In fact, I am thoughtful and well-meaning. I have learned that a man who makes trouble for others is also making trouble for himself. Rest assured, I promise you I will not cause you any trouble.Bird A: (Talking to Bird B) Maybe he is a changed man now. Let’s talk to our bird friends and see if we will take him with us.(After a brief discussion with all the other birds)Bird B: Ok. Tortoise, now we all agreed to take you to the sky. Each of us will lend you a feather so that you can have two wings to fly.(During the flight to the party)Bird A: Tortoise is a great orator!Bird B: Let’s make him the spokesperson for the party.Tortoise: Did you know that we need a new name when we are invited to a great feast like this? It is an age-old custom and our hosts in the sky will expect us to honor it.Bird A: We haven’t heard of this before. But as you are such a learned man, if you say this, we will choose a new name for ourselves. I will call myself Good-Looking.Bird B: I am Smart-Ass.Tortoise: And my new name is All of You.(On their arrival at the sky)Sky people: Welcome to the sky, our dear bird friends. We are so pleased to see you again. Please make yourselves at home.Tortoise: My dear respected friends, thank you so much for inviting us to the sky. Nothing can make us happier than this. It is our greatest honor to be here and have a good time with you. Sky people: Thank you for your nice words. Now please help yourselves to the nuts.Bird A: Tortoise is really eloquent, isn’t he? I’m glad we decided to bring him with us. Bird B: Yes. And these are delicious nuts.Sky people: Now the dinner is ready. Please enjoy the soup, meat, fish and pounded yam. Here is palm wine, too.Tortoise: Just a moment. Let me ask you first. For whom have you prepared this feast? Skypeople: For whom? Why? For all of you, of course.Tortoise (To the birds): You remember that my name is All of You. The custom here is to serve the spokesman first and the others later. They will serve you when I finish.Sky people (To themselves): Looks like it is their custom to leave all the food to their king first. Tortoise: Mm. Yummy. Mm. I’m full now. You can start to eat.Bird A: We should never bring him here. I am too angry to eat. I’m going home.Bird B: Wait. I am leaving, too. Take the feather with us.Tortoise: What are you doing? Leave me the feather. Oh, how am I going home without a single feather? You can’t do this to me?Birds: Bye.Tortoise: Could someone take a message for my wife?

Unit 1 PersonalityIn-Class Reading羞怯的痛苦1 对许多人来说,羞怯是很多不愉快的起因。

各种各样的人——矮的、高的、愚笨的、聪明的、年轻的、年老的、瘦的、胖的——都说自己是羞怯的。

羞怯的人会焦虑不安,感到不自然;也就是说,他们过分地关注自己的外表和举止。

脑海中不断盘旋着一些使自己不安的想法:我给人留下的是什么印象?他们喜欢我吗?我讲话是不是傻里傻气?我长得难看。

我穿的衣服毫不引人注目。

2 很显然这种不安的感觉会对人产生不利的影响。

一个人的自我看法反映在自己的行为方式之中,而一个人的行为方式又影响他人的反应。

通常,人们如何看待自己对他们生活的各个方面都会产生深刻的影响。

例如,具有积极的自我价值观或很强自尊心的人往往表现出自信。

而由于自信,他们不需要他人不断地称赞和鼓励,也能使自己感觉良好。

自信者热情、自发地投入生活。

他们不因别人认为他们“该”做什么而受到影响。

有很强自尊心的人不会被批评所伤害;他们不会把批评看作是人身攻击。

相反,他们认为批评是一种提醒他们改进的建议。

3 相比之下,羞怯的人自尊心较弱,往往消极被动并且容易受他人影响。

他们(是否)在做“该做的事情”需要得到别人的肯定。

害羞的人对批评非常敏感;他们觉得批评正好证实了他们比别人差。

他们也很难因别人的赞美而高兴,因为他们相信自己不值得称赞。

羞怯的人也许会用这样的话来回答别人的赞美之辞:“你这么说只是为了让我感觉好一些。

我知道这不是真的。

”显然,尽管自我意识是一种健康的品质,过分的自我意识却是不利和有害的。

4能否彻底消除或者至少减轻羞怯感呢?幸运的是,人们能够通过坚持不懈的努力建立自信从而克服羞怯。

由于胆怯和缺少自尊是密切相关的,因此正视自己的弱点和正视自己的优点一样重要。

例如,大多数人希望每门功课都得A。

5 如果仅仅因为在某些领域有困难,就把自己列为差生,这不恰如其分。

人们对自己的期望必须现实。

老是想那些不可能的事情会令自己觉得无能,甚至产生嫉妒。

新编大学英语3课文翻译 Unit 5、6、 8、9第五单元,我是怎样识字的3 你可曾在航海时遇上过有浓雾的时候?你仿佛被困在了触手可及的一片白茫茫中,不见天日。

你乘坐的巨轮,靠测深锤或测深线的指引,举步维艰地靠向海岸,既紧张又焦急不安;而你则心里砰砰直跳,等着有事要发生。

而我在接受教育之前正像那巨轮,所不同的是我连指南针或测深线都没有,更无从知晓离港湾还有多远。

我的心灵在无声地疾呼:“光明!给我光明吧! ”而就在此时此刻,爱的光芒洒在了我的身上。

(考原课文填空,英文,注意新单词) 9 那天我学会了很多新词。

现在我已记不清都是些什么词了,但我还记得其中有“妈妈、爸爸、姐妹、老师”。

这些词使得整个世界就像有了“亚伦的神杖,充满了鲜花”,为我绽开。

在这个重要的日子快要结束时,已很难找到一个比我更加幸福的孩子。

我躺在自己的小床上,回味着这一天所给予我的欣喜;渴望着新的一天的到来,这是我有生以来从未有过的期盼。

(考课文英翻汉)第六单元,人和动物的好斗性1 人类肯定是所有动物中最好斗和最残忍的。

我们会说暴徒的行为就“像野兽”,然而事实上,没有任何一种动物象人类那样残暴。

当领域性的动物或鸟类侵入了别的同类动物的领地时,后者只会做一些表示敌意的姿态以吓跑入侵者。

但是,万一有争斗,任何一方都不会受重伤,因为败方会做出姿态表示投降以便保全性命。

一般情况下,动物之间只会为了觅食而杀戮,同类动物之间自相残杀是极少见的。

(考课文英翻汉)2 然而,如果动物发现自己处于异常环境下,它会表现出特别地富有攻击性。

有一只老虎从丛林跑到村庄来,袭击了人,后来人们发现原来它的爪子受了伤,使它显然不能像平时那样去猎食。

假如不是因为受伤,这只虎毫无疑问还会呆在丛林里,并像往常那样去猎取食物。

关在动物园笼子里的动物,往往会比在野外时更加寻衅好斗。

比如说,关在笼子里的狮子一旦能自由自在地徜徉在非洲的大草原上,那么它会一直活力充沛,长途游弋,与家族同类一起追捕食物。

欢迎阅读!新编大学英语3课文翻译Unit 4 Career Planning职业生涯规划1、职业生涯规划不一定例行或合乎逻辑的步骤。

我们每个人都在不同的地方体重因素,可考虑某些阶段的职业规划,在不同的时间。

职业规划包括收集有关自己和了解职业,估计各种可能的结果的行动,最后,选择的替代品,我们认为有吸引力的和可行的。

2、许多观察家指出,学生是不是非常有效的职业生涯规划。

他们列举的证据表明,大多数学生中选择一种十分狭隘集团的职业;多达40至百分之六十选择专业职业,而实际上只有15日至18日的百分之劳动力从事专业工作;年轻人表现出惊人的缺乏兴趣的文书,销售,服务等职业,尽管这些领域提供了许多就业机会;多达三分之一的学生无法表示任何选择职业。

3、在书中决策,欧文詹尼斯和莱昂曼确定中存在的严重缺陷的方法很多人作出决定。

这些缺陷似乎与模式的人使用,以应付的问题。

第一个漏洞是自满。

谁无视人民挑战的信息作出的选择,他们表现出的自满。

人们谁采取的态度是“这不会影响我”或“这绝不会发生”使用自满为主导的模式行事。

当然,自满是适当的任何决定,其中任何事关重大,但这并不说明职业生涯的决定。

4、第二个漏洞,人们应付决定是防御撤销。

当面对的是一个决定,并不能认为他们可以找到一个可以接受的解决办法,有些人保持冷静,通过诉诸一厢情愿或白日梦。

学生谁不想想影响他们的职业选择往往从事合理化(欺骗自己与自我满足,但不正确的解释,一个人的行为)或拖延(推迟或拖延)。

面临的形势可能会产生焦虑,但检查的替代品也可提供救济。

5、第三个漏洞是hypervigilance 。

这发生在职业生涯决策当人们认为,没有足够的时间来寻找解决办法,他们的恐慌。

他们疯狂地寻找职业的可能性和抓住匆忙发明的解决办法,忽略了他们所选择的后果以及其他替代方案。

新标准大学英语综合教程3课文翻译(完整版)Unit 1Active reading 1抓螃蟹大学最后一年的秋天,我们的心情变了。

刚刚过去的夏季学期的轻松氛围、即兴球赛、查尔斯河上的泛舟以及深夜晚会都不见了踪影,我们开始埋头学习,苦读到深夜,课堂出勤率再次急剧上升。

我们都觉得在校时间不多了,以后再也不会有这样的学习机会了,所以都下定决心不再虚度光阴。

当然,下一年四五月份的期末考试最为重要。

我们谁都不想考全班倒数第一,那也太丢人了,因此同学们之间的竞争压力特别大。

以前每天下午五点以后,图书馆就空无一人了,现在却要等到天快亮时才会有空座,小伙子们熬夜熬出了眼袋,他们脸色苍白,睡眼惺忪,却很自豪,好像这些都是表彰他们勤奋好学的奖章。

还有别的事情让大家心情焦虑。

每个人都在心里盘算着过几个月毕业离校之后该找份什么样的工作。

并不总是那些心怀抱负、成绩拔尖的高材生才清楚自己将来要做什么,常常是那些平日里默默无闻的同学早早为自己下几个阶段的人生做好了规划。

有位同学在位于麦迪逊大道他哥哥的广告公司得到了一份工作,另一位同学写的电影脚本已经与好莱坞草签了合约。

我们当中野心最大的一位同学准备到地方上当一个政党活动家,我们都预料他最终会当上参议员或国会议员。

但大多数同学不是准备继续深造,就是想在银行、地方政府或其他单位当个白领,希望在20 出头的时候能挣到足够多的薪水,过上舒适的生活,然后就娶妻生子,贷款买房,期望升职,过安稳日子。

感恩节的时候我回了一趟家,兄弟姐妹们免不了不停地问我毕业后有什么打算,我不知道该说什么。

实际上,我知道该说什么,但我怕他们批评我,所以只对他们说了别人都准备干什么。

父亲看着我,什么也没说。

夜深时,他叫我去他的书房。

我们坐了下来,他给我们俩各倒了杯饮料。

“怎么样?”他问。

“啊,什么怎么样?”“你毕业后到底想做什么?”他问道。

父亲是一名律师,我一直都认为他想让我去法学院深造,追随他的人生足迹,所以我有点儿犹豫。

Unit 1Text 1我的父亲——一位著名男演员的女儿讲述的故事埃米。

米特福德我并不真正了解父亲,他不是个很容易相处的人。

我觉得他比较以自我为中心,还宵一点儿虚荣.在某些方面还会让人觉得有距离感。

公众肯定都认为他很随和,其实在家的时候他基本上都是独处,不怎么跟我们交流。

我小的时候父亲火溉很少在家,因为我几乎没有什么关于他的记忆。

他对家庭生洒.直是有一些生疏。

对他来说,工作总是放在第一位,而且他总是在外地演戏或是排练。

他喜欢别人找他签名,也喜欢被别人认出的感觉。

他获得过几个奖项,并为此感到非常骄傲。

他成为一名大英帝国荣誉公民,我们必须到白金汉宫去领取勋章。

那真是令人难以置信的乏味。

还何其他数百人获得同样的荣誉,所以你得一直坐在那里等好几个小时。

每当有人来拜访我们家时,父亲总爱把他的奖品拿出来炫耀。

我上过私立寄宿学校,但是因为对学习毫无兴趣并且总是缺课,被勒令退学了。

我本来就不想去那儿上学,因此,我就和我所有的朋友们分开了。

把我送到那个学校读书他一一定很高兴,但事实上,到最后这一切只是浪费金钱而已。

我想我让他感到非常失望。

后来我也试着做过儿份工作;但是都不能安心长久地做下去。

然后,我意识到我真正想做的是生活在乡村照料牲畜,所以,我现在就做这个。

作为一家人,无论是情感上还是空间上我们都不那么亲密。

这些日子我们彼此很少见面。

我和父亲就像石膏和奶酪’一样完全不同。

我的兴趣一直都在乡村,而他则喜欢书本和音乐,尤其是歌剧,这恰恰是我所讨厌的。

如果他们来看我们,他们的衣着也完全不适合在乡村穿——貂皮大衣和漂亮的但不适合在田间走长路的小皮鞋。

父亲对我结婚更是完全反对。

他一直希望我和我的丈夫分开。

查拉德太卑微了,我想。

而父亲一定是怨让我嫁给一个有名望的人,但我没有。

unit 1 Mr. Doherty Builds His Dream LifeIn America many people have a romantic idea of life in the countryside. Many living in towns dream of starting up their own farm, of living off the land. Few get round to putting their dreams into practice. This is perhaps just as well, as the life of a farmer is far from easy, as Jim Doherty discovered when he set out to combine being a writer with running a farm. Nevertheless, as he explains, he has no regrets and remains enthusiastic about his decision to change his way of life.在美国,不少人对乡村生活怀有浪漫的情感。

许多居住在城镇的人梦想着自己办个农场,梦想着靠土地为生。

很少有人真去把梦想变为现实。

或许这也没有什么不好,因为,正如吉姆·多尔蒂当初开始其写作和农场经营双重生涯时所体验到的那样,农耕生活远非轻松自在。

但他写道,自己并不后悔,对自己作出的改变生活方式的决定仍热情不减。

Mr. Doherty Builds His Dream LifeJim Doherty1 There are two things I have always wanted to do -- write and live on a farm. Today I'm doing both. I am not in E. B. White's class as a writer or in my neighbors' league as a farmer, but I'm getting by. And after years of frustration with city and suburban living, my wife Sandy and I have finally found contentment here in the country.有两件事是我一直想做的――写作与务农。

全新版大学英语综合教程3课文原文及翻译Unit 1 Friendship and Social MediaText A Cyberbullying: The Problem and SolutionsCyberbullying is the use of electronic communication to bully a person, typically by sending messages of an intimidating or threatening nature. With the rapid development of technology, cyberbullying has become a prevalent issue in today's society. It poses serious consequences for the victims and calls for immediate attention and effective solutions.In many cases, victims of cyberbullying experience emotional distress, depression, and low self-esteem. They may also face difficulties in maintaining healthy relationships, both on and offline. The constant harassment and humiliation can have severe psychological effects on the victims. Moreover, cyberbullying can even lead to tragic outcomes such as self-harm or suicide. It is evident that cyberbullying is a serious problem that needs to be addressed urgently.One of the main challenges in combating cyberbullying is the anonymity provided by the internet. Bullies can hide behind fake identities, making it difficult to identify and hold them accountable for their actions. This anonymity encourages the perpetrators to engage in bullying behavior without fear of consequences. Alongside this, the widespread use of social media platforms and instant messaging apps has made it easier for cyberbullying to occur. Messages can be spread quickly and reach a large number of people within seconds, leaving the victims feeling helpless.To tackle this issue, various measures can be adopted. Firstly, schools and educational institutions should implement comprehensive anti-cyberbullying policies. Students need to be educated about the harmful effects of cyberbullying and its consequences. They should also be taught how to respond to cyberbullying incidents and seek help from trusted adults. Creating a safe and supportive environment is vital in preventing cyberbullying.Secondly, parents and guardians play a crucial role in addressing cyberbullying. They should actively monitor their children's online activities and encourage open communication. Teaching children about responsible online behavior and the importance of empathy towards others can help prevent them from becoming bullies or victims themselves.Furthermore, social media platforms and internet service providers should take responsibility for preventing and responding to cyberbullying. Implementing stricter regulations and policies can help in detecting and addressing cyberbullying incidents promptly. Improved reporting mechanisms and efficient removal of offensive content are essential in safeguarding users' well-being online.In conclusion, cyberbullying is a serious problem that has emerged with the advancement of technology. It has detrimental effects on the victims and requires immediate action. Combating cyberbullying requires a collective effort from schools, parents, and online platforms. Only through comprehensive education, active monitoring, and stricter regulations can we create a safer online environment for everyone.文本 A 网络欺凌:问题和解决方案网络欺凌是指利用电子通信对一个人进行恐吓或威胁的行为。

Unit 1 PersonalityIn-Class Reading羞怯的痛苦1 对许多人来说,羞怯是很多不愉快的起因。

各种各样的人——矮的、高的、愚笨的、聪明的、年轻的、年老的、瘦的、胖的——都说自己是羞怯的。

羞怯的人会焦虑不安,感到不自然;也就是说,他们过分地关注自己的外表和举止。

脑海中不断盘旋着一些使自己不安的想法:我给人留下的是什么印象?他们喜欢我吗?我讲话是不是傻里傻气?我长得难看。

我穿的衣服毫不引人注目。

2 很显然这种不安的感觉会对人产生不利的影响。

一个人的自我看法反映在自己的行为方式之中,而一个人的行为方式又影响他人的反应。

通常,人们如何看待自己对他们生活的各个方面都会产生深刻的影响。

例如,具有积极的自我价值观或很强自尊心的人往往表现出自信。

而由于自信,他们不需要他人不断地称赞和鼓励,也能使自己感觉良好。

自信者热情、自发地投入生活。

他们不因别人认为他们“该”做什么而受到影响。

有很强自尊心的人不会被批评所伤害;他们不会把批评看作是人身攻击。

相反,他们认为批评是一种提醒他们改进的建议。

3 相比之下,羞怯的人自尊心较弱,往往消极被动并且容易受他人影响。

他们(是否)在做“该做的事情”需要得到别人的肯定。

害羞的人对批评非常敏感;他们觉得批评正好证实了他们比别人差。

他们也很难因别人的赞美而高兴,因为他们相信自己不值得称赞。

羞怯的人也许会用这样的话来回答别人的赞美之辞:“你这么说只是为了让我感觉好一些。

我知道这不是真的。

”显然,尽管自我意识是一种健康的品质,过分的自我意识却是不利和有害的。

4能否彻底消除或者至少减轻羞怯感呢?幸运的是,人们能够通过坚持不懈的努力建立自信从而克服羞怯。

由于胆怯和缺少自尊是密切相关的,因此正视自己的弱点和正视自己的优点一样重要。

例如,大多数人希望每门功课都得A。

5 如果仅仅因为在某些领域有困难,就把自己列为差生,这不恰如其分。

人们对自己的期望必须现实。

老是想那些不可能的事情会令自己觉得无能,甚至产生嫉妒。

当我们嫉妒比自己成绩好的学生时,我们正在自我否定。

如果你害羞,这里有些具体有效的步骤帮助你树立信心并克服羞怯感:6 1.认清自己的优缺点。

每个人既有优点又有缺点。

随着对自我的不断认同,羞怯感就会自然减弱。

7 2.确定合理的目标。

例如,在聚会时和一群陌生人在一起,你也许会怯场。

不要以为你必须和每个人交谈。

集中精力,仅和一两个人交谈,你会感到更自在些。

8 3.内疚和羞耻感是消极的情感。

不要把时间和精力浪费在这上头。

假设你伤害了某人的感情,(光)感到羞愧是无济于事的。

相反,应该承认你犯了个错误,并决心在将来更加善解人意。

9 4.所有问题都有许多种解决办法。

很少有完全正确或完全错误的意见。

要敢于公开表达自己的观点。

10 5.不要对自己做消极的评论。

这是一种自我否定。

千万别把自己描述为愚蠢的、丑陋的,或者一个失败者。

注重自己积极的方面。

11 6.接受批评时要缜密思考。

不要把批评理解为人身攻击。

例如,如果一位朋友抱怨你的烹饪技术,要把这当成对你的烹饪技术而不是对你本人的评价而接受下来。

放心,你们还是好朋友,但你的烹饪技术也许确实有待改进。

12 7.记住,每个人都会经历一些失败和挫折。

要把它们作为增长见识的经历,从中受益。

挫折往往会成为转机,随之而来的将是一段美妙绝伦的经历。

例如,你可能被你所中意的大学拒之门外。

然而,在你就读的大学里,你可能发现这里教育的某一特点比你料想的好得多。

13 8.有些人会使你感到自己无能,不要和这种人交往。

去设法改变他们对你的态度或者改变你对自己的态度,要不就脱离这种关系。

伤害你的人并不关心你的最大利益。

14 9.留出时间休息,享受自己的业余爱好,并且定期地重新审定自己的目标。

为此所花费的时间有助于更好地了解你自己。

15 10.多在社交场合中锻炼。

不要把自己同他人隔离开来。

设法一次结识一位朋友;最终你将能够娴熟而自信地在众人中周旋。

我们每个人都是独一无二、难能可贵的个体。

我们自有吸引人的地方。

我们对自己了解得越多,就越容易充分发挥自己的潜力。

不要让羞怯成为阻碍我们拥有丰富和成功生活的绊脚石。

After-Class Reading看待生活的两种方式你的生活态度是你个人人生观的深刻体现。

(让我们)更仔细地看一下二者的关系。

你是个悲观主义者,还是个乐观主义者?你看待(生活)的方式确实影响着你的生活态度,你清楚吗?请记住:改变了你的人生观,就改变了你的生活态度。

1 父亲低头年看着小床里睡得正熟的女儿,女儿出生没几天,刚从医院回家。

她的漂亮和完美使他心中充满了敬畏和感激。

2 这时孩子睁开了眼睛,直直地向上方望着。

3 父亲叫她的名字,期待着她转头看他。

她的眼睛却一动不动。

4 他拿起系在婴儿床围栏上的小绒毛玩具摇起来,玩具上的响铃发出叮叮当当的声音。

孩子的眼睛还是一动不动。

5 他的心跳开始加速。

他在卧室里找到了妻子并把刚刚发生的事告诉了她。

“她似乎对声音毫无反应,”他说。

“好像她根本听不到。

”6 “我敢肯定她一切正常,”妻子说着,一边披上晨衣。

他们一起走进了婴儿的房间。

7 她叫着孩子的名字,把铃摇得叮当响,还拍手。

随后她把孩子抱起来,这时孩子一下子变得活泼起来并发出开心的声音。

8 “天哪,”父亲说,“她是个聋子。

”9 “不,不会的,”母亲说。

“我是说,现在这么说太早了。

你看,她刚出生不久,视线还不能集中呢。

”10 “可是刚才你那么用力地拍手,她都没有一点反应。

”11 母亲从书架上拿了一本书。

“让我们看看这本育儿书上怎么说,”她说道。

她查到“听觉”栏,大声读道:“‘如果你的新生儿听到响声不吃惊,或者不会朝向发出声音的方向,不必慌张。

因为对声音的反应通常要过一段时间才会出现。

你的儿科医生可以从神经系统方面对孩子的听觉进行测试。

’”12 “瞧,”母亲说道,“这是不是让你感觉好多了?”13 “没好多少,”父亲说。

“书里甚至都没提还有另一种可能性,那就是孩子是聋子。

我只知道我的宝贝什么也听不见。

我有一种最可怕的预感。

也许这是因为我的祖父就是聋子的原因。

如果我们漂亮的小宝贝真是聋子而且是我这一方的原因,我将永远无法原谅自己。

”14 “嗨,等等,”妻子说。

“你太多虑了。

星期一我们第一件要做的事就是给儿科大夫打电话。

现在高兴点儿吧。

来,抱着孩子,我把毯子弄弄好,全都拉散了。

”15 父亲接过孩子,但是很快地又把她还给了妻子。

整个周末他发现自己无法准备下一周的工作。

他跟着妻子在屋子里转,满脑子想的都是孩子的听觉问题以及失聪将会怎样毁了孩子的一生。

他只想到最坏的一面:没有听觉,无法学语言,他那漂亮的宝贝将与世隔绝,被困在无声的世界中。

等到了星期天晚上,他已经彻底绝望了。

16 母亲在儿科医生的代接电话服务处留了言,预约星期一一大早与医生见面。

周末则用来让自己锻炼、阅读并尽力安慰丈夫。

17 医生检查的结果令人安慰,但父亲的情绪依然低落。

直到一周后,当孩子听到过路卡车的巨响而第一次感到吃惊时,他这才开始情绪好转,并又感到和新生女儿在一起的乐趣了。

18 (故事中的)父亲母亲有两种截然不同的看世事的方式。

只要有丁点不好的事发生在父亲身上,如银行经理的一个电话、与妻子的意见相左、甚至是老板皱了一下眉头,他都会往最坏的方面想:破产、入狱、离婚、解雇。

他很容易情绪低落;经常感到很累;身体不好。

而与他正相反,她总是从最乐观的角度来看待坏事。

对她而言,这些事只不过是一时的考验而已,会克服的。

在经历挫折后,她很快就恢复过来,并又重新恢复活力。

她的身体非常健康。

19 在过去的25年中,我一直在研究乐观主义者和悲观主义者这两类人。

悲观主义者的典型特征是,他们往往相信坏事会持续相当长的一段时间,会危及他们所做的每件事,并且都是他们自己的过错。

而乐观主义者在面临同样的生活不幸时,则以相反的方式看待厄运。

他们会认为失败只是暂时的挫折,它的起因也仅限于这一例。

乐观主义者相信失败并不是他们的错,而是环境、运气不佳或其他人造成了自己的失败。

这些人从不为失败所困扰。

面临逆境时,他们会把它看作是考验并更加努力。

20 这两种考虑问题起因的习惯会产生不同的结果。

毫不夸张地说,大量的研究都表明悲观主义者更容易放弃,更经常感到情绪低落。

这些试验还显示乐观主义者无论在学校学习还是在工作中的表现都要出色得多。

他们的表现常常超出了能力测验的预测。

当乐观主义者参加竞选时,他们比悲观主义者更容易当选。

他们的健康状况出奇地好。

有证据显示他们可能更长寿。

21 25年的研究使我确信,如果我们像我们悲观主义者那样,习惯性地认为不幸是我们自己的过错,会持续很长时间,而且会危及我们所做的每件事情,那么更多的不幸就会发生在我们身上,而反之则不然。

我也确信,如果我们总是为这种观点所左右,我们将会更容易消沉,将无法取得我们本应取得的成就,并且我们将更容易生病。

悲观主义者的预言会自然应验的。

Unit 3挂钥匙的孩子——笃、笃,家里有人吗?在过去的几十年中,美国的生活费用一直在持续增长。

食品价格。

服装费用、房子开销和学费都越来越高。

母亲们纷纷放弃传统的全职家庭主妇的角色,这一部分是由于经济需要,一部分是想通过工作取得成就感。

她们越来越多地从事家庭以外的有薪水的工作。

如此重大的角色转换影响着整个家庭,尤其是孩子们。

某些后果是非常明显的。

例如,晚饭时间推迟了。

而另一方面,这种转变对情感的影响就更微妙了。

母亲们早上带着愧疚感离开家,因为孩子放学回来时她们会不在家。

她们压抑着愧疚心理,因为她们相信她们的工作从长远来讲对大家有益。

她们的收入将能够使家庭存下钱来供孩子上大学。

度一次长假、买辆新车,等等。

孩子们在情感上所受到的影响是很大的。

通常,孩子会感到受伤和愤怒。

毕竟,他们一个人呆几个小时,他们感到他们的母亲应该“在那儿”等着他们。

他们可能需要有人帮他们完成作业,或者想把一天的活动说给母亲听。

然而,母亲们通常筋疲力尽地回到家,又要面临一个紧迫的任务——准备晚饭。

她们的首要任务是给全家人做晚饭,而不是轻松的聊天。

挂钥匙的孩子年龄从六岁到十三岁不等。

每天,他们放学回家,用挂在脖子上的钥匙打开门,独自一人,孤孤单单地呆在安静而空荡荡的屋子里。

对某些孩子来说,这段个人时间是很有所作为的,而对于另外一些孩子,却是令人害怕的孤单的空虚。

由于安全原因,很多父母不允许孩子出去玩,或带客人到家里来。

因此,孩子们感到一种被隔离的感觉。

被采访的挂钥匙的孩子们反应不同。

一些孩子说,每天自己呆上几个小时培养或激发了他们的独立意识和责任心。

他们感到被爱、被信任,并且这一感觉鼓励他们自信。

挂钥匙的女孩子通过观察母亲如何持家和工作,学习了职业母亲的行为榜样。

一些孩子称他们利用这段不受监督的自由时间来提高他们的运动技能,如打篮球。

还有一些孩子读书或练习乐器。
