资源描述

1、1TranslationUnit1当时大家生活都很艰难,我们 家靠我开出租车的收入勉强 度日。一天 深夜我接到要车电话,令我吃惊的是,到达那个地址时发现是一位柔弱的老太太在等我。她上 车后,我便与她攀谈起来。我了解到她要去安养院,医生说她的时间不多了。老太太叫我开车穿过市中心。她指着一些老房子告诉我那是她曾居住或工作过的地方。最后当车子停在安养院门口时,我没有接收她的车费。在那天余下的 时间里我陷入了沉思:虽 然我得谋生,但是生活的意 义不仅仅是为了生存。当周遭情形一片阴暗时,我的一个小小善举可能就是一束烛光,尽管烛火微弱,却温暖了一颗心灵,也令我高尚。我真的为自己的小小善举感到自豪。That

2、 was a time when life was difficult for everyone. My family could barely get by on my small income from driving a cab. One late night I responded to a call for a cab ride. To my surprise, when I arrived at the address, I found it was a frail old lay who was awaiting me. After she got into the cab, I

3、 engaged her in conversation. I learnt that she was going to the hospice. Her doctor said she didnt have very long. The old lady told me to drive through the downtown area. She pointed at some old buildings, telling me those were the places where she used to work or live. When the cab finally pulled

4、 up in front of the hospice, I didnt accept her fare. In the rest of the day, I was lost in thought. Though I had to make a living, I lived not for the sole purpose of surviving. When circumstances looked gloomy, the small favour I had done could be a candle light. However faint the light was, it ma

5、naged to warm up a soul and ennobled me as well. I did take pride in that small favour.Unit2晚饭后,我们大家围坐在壁炉( hearth)旁。苏珊姨妈还沉浸在失去罗伯特姨父的悲伤之中。她轻声讲起了他俩从前的 岁月。 订婚不久,姨父就去参军了。考虑到当时的严峻形势,许多军人无法生还,你就可以想象姨 妈每天有多恐惧。而当姨父从欧洲战场平安返回时姨妈甭提有多开心了。之后,他们结 婚成家,抚育了五个孩子。 这 么多年来,在共同克服生活的 艰辛磨难的过程当中,夫妻间的感情越来越深。我被姨妈的故事深深迷住了,这完全不

6、同于我理想中的爱情。在日常生活中,他们并不追求激情浪漫,并没有牢 骚满腹,而是实践着“付出”和“分享”。令人感慨的是,这样的爱延续了一辈子。After dinner, we all sat around the hearth. Aunt Susan was still in the grief of losing Uncle 2Robert. In her soft voice she told us about their past years. Uncle Robert joined the army shortly after they were engaged. Given the c

7、ritical situation at the time when lots of army men didnt return alive, you can imagine how much horrified Aunt Susan was every day, and how much overjoyed she was to see Uncle Robert back safe and sound from the European battlefield. Then they got married and brought up five children. For all those

8、 years, their affection for each other grew stronger in the course of overcoming difficulties and hardships in life. I was fascinated by Aunt Susans story, which was totally different from my ideal of love. They practiced, in their daily life, giving and sharing instead of pursuing passion and roman

9、ce, or making complaints. Amazingly, such love lasted through their whole life.Unit3 大家普遍认为人是社会性的动物,生活在同一社会的我 们 自然指望有朋友。至于什么是友谊, 我们已经学习了古希腊大哲学家 亚里士多德、古 罗马 政治家西塞罗各自不同的定义。这种不可否认有些人交朋友仅仅是为了彼此有用,一旦失去这个基础, 这种友谊也就中止了。但更多的人渴望“ 心灵之友(soul pats)“ ,即那种拥有高尚情操 ,能共度磨难的朋友。 这样的 友谊使我们远离贪欲、 暴力,鼓励我们敢于按照自己的信念 说话和做事。 这样

10、的友谊才是我们说的 “真 挚的友谊” 。正是由于这些朋友的相伴,我 们发现自己总在超越原来的自己,成为更好的人。As is commonly acknowledged / It is commonly recognised that humans are social animals. Living together in a community, we naturally expect to have friends. As to what friendship is, we have read different definitions given by Aristotle, an anc

11、ient Greek philosopher, and Cicero, a Roman statesman. No one will deny that some people make friends simply for mutual utility. Once the ground for such friendship disappears, the friendship also breaks up. However, a lot more people long for “soul pals” those who possess virtues and with whom we c

12、an go through trials and tribulations together. Such friendships keep us away from greed and violence and inspire us to have the courage of our convictions. Such is what we call “true friendship”. It is with such friends company that we find ourselves surpassing our old selves and becoming better pe

13、rsons / people.Unit4一枚金牌证明了奥运冠军的运动才能、决心和勇气。那么这些运动员又是如何让自己有幸获得如此巨大的荣耀呢?登上领奖台的冠军们能用他们自己的亲身经历为我们提供答案。首先,在训练的时候,他们就把自己想象成冠军。一旦有了冠军的梦想,他们就勇敢地坚守3梦想。此外,优秀的运动员内心迫切地要发挥最佳潜能。他们严于律己,挤出每天的每一分钟去练习。尽管他们锲而不舍,有时还有可能失败或者因毫厘之差与金牌失之交臂,但是他们相信自己,不灰心。他们时刻准备接受心理上,技巧上最具挑战性的任务或比赛。事实上,为了获得毕生中那至关重要的机会,所有的冠军都经历过 很多的艰难困苦。因此,我们不

14、会说也不能说冠军是幸运的。好运 毕竟只眷顾那些准备好迎接好运的人。A gold medal is a tribute to the athletic talent, determination and courage of an Olympic champion. Then how do the athletes make themselves fortunate enough to be so highly honored? The champions who have mounted the winners stand can offer an answer based on their

15、own experiences. First, in the course of training, they visualize themselves as champions. Once their dreams of becoming champions take shape, they will cling to them courageously. Whats more, top performers are driven to bring out their best. They discipline themselves and squeeze in every possible

16、 minute to practice every day. Despite their relentless efforts, they may sometimes fail to win or narrowly miss a gold medal, yet they believe in themselves and never lose heart. They are ready to take on the most psychologically and technically challenging tasks or competitions. In reality, all ch

17、ampions have experienced lots of hardships on their way to the vital break of their lifetime. So we wont and cant say that a champion is lucky. After all, luck only strikes those prepared to capitalize on it.Unit5我们都想要健康,在应对各种 严峻挑战时想要自己处于最佳状 态:健康方面的好建议并不少:例如:均衡饮食 睡眠充足以及每周安排一些时间做运 动:一门新学科一一时间生物学一一为我们

18、提供了一个能取得最佳效率的新方法:这个方法就是协调我们的日常活动与自身身体能力:我们将每一天中每隔四小时所测得的六个体温读数标记在坐标纸 上,让自己熟悉以下信息:我的体温何时开始上升,何 时体温升至最高,何时降到最低。然后,我 们遵照时间生物学权威人士的指示来规划我们的日常活动:例如,体力要求最高的工作要在我 们体温最高时去做:而与之不同的是,像 读书和思考这样的脑力劳动 就要在体温下降时去做:这祥,我们实际傲的事就与我们身体的自然节奏吻合,我 们就能如 预期一样表现出最佳状态。We all want to be healthy, to be at our best when handling

19、 tough challenges. There has never been a lack of good advice on health. For example, eat a balanced diet, get enough sleep, and set aside some time every week for exercise. Chronobiology, a new science, has provided us with a new approach to achieving peak efficiency. It is to coordinate our daily

20、activities with our 4biological capacities. We plot on graph paper six readings of our temperature taken at four-hour intervals throughout a day, and familiarize ourselves with such information as when our body temperature begins to rise, when it reaches its peak/the highest point, and when the bott

21、om/the lowest point appears. Then, we plan our daily activities by following the instructions given by chronobiology authorities. For instance, we tackle the most demanding physical work when our temperature is the highest. By contrast, we pursue mental activities like reading and reflection when ou

22、r temperature is falling. In this way, what we actually do coincides with our bodys natural rhythms and we achieve our best as predicted.Unit6如今,媒体、商业广告不断地向我们一遍又一遍地重复着物质生活的重要性,以至于我们都被洗脑,以为幸福是可以 购买到的。我 们向周围的人炫耀新得的一件 财产,努力让我们的银行账户不断丰满。我们渴望 爱, 试图把物质的东西作为爱 、柔情和温情的替代品。然而,我们从来没有体验到最大的快乐,我 们总是妒忌那些比我 们拥有更多钱

23、和权力的人。事 实上,我们是把价值观放错了地方,我 们没能将物质幸福和精神幸福区分开来。金钱固然十分重要,但是除了金钱以外,我们还应该拥 有好朋友、和 谐的家庭、强壮的体魄、值得奋斗的目标,这些才能给我们带来长久的快乐。Nowadays, the media and commercials repeat over and over again the significance of the material side of life, so that we have been all brainwashed into believing that happiness can be purcha

24、sed. We show off to people around us a new piece of property, and take pains to keep enriching our bank accounts. We are hungry for love, trying to substitute material things for love, gentleness and tenderness. However, we have never experienced maximum happiness. We are always envious of those who

25、 have more money and power. As a matter of fact, we have put our values in the wrong things and failed to tell/distinguish material happiness from spiritual happiness. Money is incredibly important, but other than it, we should also have good friends, a harmonious family, a strong body and a worthy

26、goal. It is these things that (will) bring us lasting happiness.Unit7一所大学,就本质而言,既要为学生提供职业培训,又要让学生的心智得到发展。学生获得了专业技能,具备成为诸 如药剂师、工程 师、技师、律师等职业人士的起码资格。可以合理地认为,这些技能足以让他 们得到一份不错的工作。但是,一个人仅仅有一份好工作能感到满足吗?我们知道多数年轻人注册上大学不仅渴望得到专业培训,而且还要接受素质教5育,也就是说,他们要学习前人领悟并留传给他们的知识,接受最优秀思想家的思想和经验,以便成为文明的人。那些仅在自身特 别领域有知识的人士会被

27、定 义为“机械化原始人”,因为他们没有能力理解其他学科的思想和作品,如哲学、文学、艺术。因此,大学最有可能帮助年轻人读完大学后实现两个梦想:拥有一份不错的工作,他的职业训练讲发挥作用;过上一个有意义的、需要多样化知识的生活。A university, in essence, provides students with both occupational training and intellectual development. The students acquire professional skills in order to have the minimum qualificatio

28、ns to become specialists, such as pharmacists, engineers, technicians and lawyers. It might be reasonable to believe that those skills suffice to enable them to get a good job. Nevertheless, does one feel content with merely a good job? We know that most young people who enroll in universities long

29、for not only professional training, but also quality education; namely, they want to learn what the past learnt for them and get in touch with the minds and experience of the master thinkers in order to become civilized people. Those who are knowledgeable only in their peculiar fields may be labeled

30、 (as) “mechanized savages”, because of their incompetence in understanding the thinking and works of other fields, for example, philosophy, literature and the arts. Thus, the university is most likely to help young people realize two dreams after they graduate: having a good job where their occupational training will be effective, and living a meaningful life for which diversity of knowledge is required.
