2) Translate the following paragraph into English.

We all have goals and aspirations. Sometimes we have difficulty knowing where to start. We want that new body, or want to be healthy and have more energy, but we just do not know what the first step is. In addition, the road to our goals is sometimes a rocky one. It is difficult to transgress and sometimes we just want to give up. We sometimes forget that our current situation did not occur overnight and so changing it will not happen overnight either. It will take time and hard work. Therefore, I suggest that you should set only one goal at a time.When you try to take on too much at once, you can become overwhelmed quickly. Create a list and take one goal at a time. Once you achieve that goal, back to your list to mark it off, and move to the next one. The act of achieving goals individually will give you a greater sense of accomplishment. You can even break the one goal into smaller parts. This gives you motivation and success more often than waiting for days or months to achieve a larger goal.

B. English to Chinese

1) Translate the following paragraph into Chinese.

1. Even a modest space voyage, Dyson calculated, would set the average family back 1,500 years in wages.According to Dyson’s calculation, even a modest and common space voyage would cost the average family wages of about 1,500 years.

set back:cost (a person) specific amount

. My new car set me back $3 000.

2. The difference reflected the relative difficulty of space travel, but also the limitations of big government programs to do things on the cheap.The cost difference not only has showed space travel is much more difficult than the Ma yflower’s voyage in 1620 and the westward journey of the

Mormons in 1840s, but also proved that government needs to reduce its spending on big and expensive programs and turn its attention to the programs that cost less money.

3. Nothing has happened in the past 40 years to suggest that NASA has come any closer to the commercial sweet spot of the Colonial settlers.In the past 40 years, nothing has shown that NASA’s has found its best solution to which it could start and develop its business just like early colonial settlers who found their place, Massachusetts, to settle down and made their living move on based on their settlement.

A sweet spot is a place, often numerical as opposed to physical, where a combination of factors suggests a particularly suitable solution. In the context of a racquet, bat or similar sporting instrument, sweet spot is often believed to be the same as the center of percussion. In this context, sweet spot means a financially profitable situation. Colonial settlers found this sweet spot while NASA didn’t come close.

4. The commission headed by Lockheed Martin chairman Norm Augustine that has spent much of the past year deliberating on NASA’s human spaceflight program…

deliberate on: to consider /discuss or negotiate仔细研究,审议

. We had no time to deliberate on the problem.

5. ...even though ending this program would send NASA’s international partners into apoplexy. …even though ending the ISS program would make NASA’s international partners feel very angry.

The apoplexy is an outdated medical term, which can be used to mean “bleeding”. It can be used non-medically to mean a state of extreme rage or excitement.

6. More embarrassing, with NASA’s space shuttle due to be mothballed in 2010, and its cheaper replacement, the Orion capsule, not due to fly until 2012, the partners face a two year gap in which they will have to rely on Russia’s Soyuz ships to commute to the space station.To NASA’s embarrassment, they had to stop using their shuttle in 2010 and its cheaper replacement, the Orion capsule cannot fly until 2012, so there will be a two year gap between 2010 and 2012, in which NASA’s international partners have to depend on Russia’s ship to come and go to the space station.

mothball: to decide not to use or develop something, for a period of time, especially a piece of equipment or a plan 封存;搁置不用

If someone in authority mothballs a plan, factory, or piece of equipment, they decide to stop developing or using it, perhaps temporarily.

7. The shortfall may force NASA to open up its space-exploration program to commercial operators to a degree that’s unprecedented in its history.The shortage or lack of money may force NASA to get commercial operators involved in its space-exploration program to a degree that has never happened before.

shortfall:n. 缺口;差额;亏空

If there is a shortfall in something, there is less of it than you need.

8. The move could create opportunities for the modern equivalents of Young and Bradford—entrepreneurs willing to risk their livelihoods on making the exploration of space affordable by not only designing and building ships for NASA, but also by providing shuttle services to deliver NASA astronauts or equipment to their targets.The move —NASA’s opening up its space program to commercial or private sectors—could create opportunities for upcoming modern entrepreneurs like Young and Bradford in the early times. They are willing to take a risk in spending much money, effort and even their lives on space exploration in order to get it started and moved on by not only designing and building ships for NASA, but also by providing shuttle services to deliver NASA astronauts

or equipment to meet NASA’s targets.

9. In the past, NASA has been deeply involved in managing design and development work by outside contractors, a messy process that made the shuttle expensive and unsafe, rather than cheap and safe. Now the agency is under pressure to step back and buy services wholesale from private firms.In the past, NASA has spent much effort and time asking outside contractors to design and develop space shuttles, which is a very complicated process making the space shuttle expensive and unsafe rather than cheap and safe. Now due to financial pressure, the agency has stepped back to entrust private firms to do all the business for NASA.

10. “We’re talking about a movement from where the government has been the prime contractor,

managing situations with a very hands-on role, to a situation where they are just a customer,” says Larry Williams.We are talking about the movement —NASA has shifted it role from a major contractor who needs to do every detailed and practical work by itself to a customer who buys services wholesale from private firms.

11. The next step is to work out similar deals with private firms to send astronauts aloft. The next

step is to enable the private firms to send astronauts to outer space just like cargo that can be delivered.

aloft:adj./adv. high in the air 在空中高处

Something that is aloft is in the air or off the ground.

12. To do that, NASA will have to relinquish some of its oversight of crew safety. This isn’t entirely

without precedent.In order to let private firms send astronauts into space, NASA will have to give up their responsibility of regulating crew safety. This has happened before.

relinquish:vt. to stop having something, especially when this happens unwillingly

If you relinquish something such as power or control, you give it up.

oversight: the state of being in charge of somebody/something 负责;照管

13. Space X claims it could adapt its cargo-carrying spaceship for ferrying a human crew in less than

three years, once it gets the green light.Space X claims it could make some change to its spaceship so that it could send people to outer space in less than three years, once it gets permission.

14. If Virgin and other commercial firms can deliver, Earth orbit will be far more accessible than it’s

ever been before. Although it would still be a stretch for all but the wealthiest people, costs could come down low enough to jump-start markets for tourism.If commercial firms like Virgin Galactic can deliver man to Earth orbit, then Earth orbit would be much easier to get to than ever before.

It would be open to nobody but the wealthiest people since only the rich can afford the high price,but the cost could be reduced so that it would become a rising market for tourism.

15. The big sticking point, however, will be safety. Even though NASA holds the safety of its crew

paramount, it still hasn’t been able to escape the occasional disaster, like the loss of the Columbia shuttle and its crew in 2003.The key point is still the consideration of safety of its crew. Even though NASA regards the safety of its crew as the most important thing, it still hasn’t been able to avoid the occasional disaster, such as the loss of the Space shuttle, Columbia and its 7 crew members in 2003. 16. …the space shuttle is unreliable, in part, because its all-purpose design is overly complex. NASA

needs a bigger rocket capable of sending a crew, with equipment and supplies for a long-duration trip, beyond the tether of Earth’s gravity.… the space shuttle is unreliable partly because its space shuttle is designed for all- around purposes, such as carrying cargo or people, etc. And the process of design is extremely complex. NASA needs a bigger rocket capable of sending a crew, with equipment and supplies for a longer trip, beyond the limitation or influence of Earth’s gravity.

overly: too/ extremely

17. It might be able to entice commercial firms to undertake their own big rockets if there were some

payoff down the road.Private firms might be attracted to build their own rockets to deliver astronauts to outer space if they could get profits.

payoff:n. return; reward; payment

18. Many seemingly ridiculous ideas for generating energy and beaming it back to Earth now seem

much less so, thanks to the climate crisis.The ideas of generating energy and shining it back to earth, which used to sound very funny, but now seems much possible and necessary due to the consideration of the climate crisis.

19. …the challenge of sending people safely into deep space and back for a profit is big enough to give

any entrepreneur pause.… the challenge for private services to send people safely into deep space and back for making profits is so big that any entrepreneur would hesitate before they take their steps.

give sb./sth. pause:使踌躇,使犹豫

This finding should give pause to it. 这个发现令人深思。

His recent behavior has given her pause about their relationship.

他最近的行为让她对他们的关系产生了犹豫。

20. The Industrial Revolution didn’t take off until the railways arrived.

Here it means that the private sector will play an important role and do lots of work in deep space only if NASA gets it started.

6. This, however, being a fact, we have not only all the proof which the case admits of, but all which it is possible to require, that happiness is a good, that each person’s happiness is a good to that person, and the general happiness, therefore, a good to the aggregate of all persons. (Para. 2)However, it is a fact that the general happiness is desirable, and we have not only all the evidence that the case agrees with, but all the evidence that it is likely to need, to prove that happiness is a benefit, that each person’s happiness is a benefit to that person, and the general happiness, therefore, a benefit to all persons as a whole.

is made virtue, however they may believe (as they do) that actions and dispositions are only virtuous because they promote another end than virtue, yet this being granted, and it having been decided, from considerations of this description, what is virtuous, they not only place virtue at the very head of the things which are good as means to the ultimate end, but they also recognize as a psychological fact the possibility of its being, to the individual, a good in itself, without looking to any end beyond it;...(Para. 4)No matter what opinion the utilitarian moralists may have about the original conditions which make virtue virtue, no matter how they may believe (as they do) that deeds and characters are virtuous only because they promote a purpose other than virtue, after considering this description of what is virtuous, we may see that they not only put virtue in the first place among the things which are good as a way to the ultimate end, they also accept it as a psychological fact that it is possible for virtue to be a benefit to the individual without thinking about the ultimate end.

disposition:n. person’s natural qualities of mind and character

. a calm, irritable, cheerful, boastful, etc disposition

look to sth.make sure that sth. is safe or in good condition; be careful about sth.

. The country must look to its defenses.

You should look to your health.

14. …and hold, that the mind is not in a right state, not in a state conformable to Utility, not in the

state most conducive to the general happiness, unless it does love virtue in this manner—as a thing desirable in itself, even although, in the individual instance, it should not produce those other desirable consequences which it tends to produce, and on account of which it is held to be virtue.

(Para. 4)…and utilitarian moralists believe, that the mind is not in a right state, not in a state corresponding to Utility, not in the state most favorable to the general happiness, unless it does love virtue as a thing worth desiring for its own sake —even although, in some cases, it should not produce those other desirable consequences which it tends to produce, and because of which it is held to be virtue.

be conducive to sth.allowing or helping sth. to happen

. These noisy conditions aren’t really conducive to concentrated work.

on account of sth.because of sth.

. We delayed our departure on account of the bad weather.

15. This opinion is not, in the smallest degree, a departure from the Happiness principle. (Para. 4)This

opinion is not against the Happiness principle at all.

departure from sth.action different from (what is usual or expected)

. a departure from old customs, the standard procedure, etc.

16. The ingredients of happiness are very various, and each of them is desirable in itself, and not

merely when considered as swelling an aggregate. (Para. 4) Happiness is made up of many elements, each of which is desirable in itself and not just when considered as a whole.

ingredient n. any of the qualities of which sth. is made

. the ingredients of a/sb.’s character, of success, of happiness, etc.

swell:v. (cause sth. to) become greater in intensity, number, amount or volume

. The group of onlookers soon swelled into a crowd.

The murmur swelled into a roar.

Small extra costs all swell the total.

The river was swollen with flood water.

17. To illustrate this farther, we may remember that virtue is not the only thing, originally a means,

and which if it were not a means to anything else, would be and remain indifferent, but which by association with what it is a means to, comes to be desired for itself, and that too with the utmost intensity.(Para. 5) To illustrate this point more clearly, we may recall the following fact: virtue is a means at first which would be and remain unimportant if it were not a means to anything else; but by being associated with what it is a means to, virtue comes to be desired for its own sake with the greatest passion. What happens to virtue also happens to some other things.

illustrate:v. explain or make (sth.) clear by examples, diagrams, pictures, etc.

. To illustrate my point I have done a comparative analysis.

utmost a. greatest; furthest; most extreme

. in the utmost danger

of the utmost importance

with the utmost care

pushed to the utmost limits of endurance

intensity n. state or quality of being intense

. work with greater intensity

18. There is nothing originally more desirable about money than about any heap of glittering pebbles.

(Para. 5) At first people’ s desire for money is just the same as that for any pile of shining stones.

glitter:v. shine brightly with little sharp flashes of light; sparkle

. stars glittering in the frosty sky

a necklace glittering with diamonds

19. Its worth is solely that of the things which it will buy; the desires for other things than itself, which

it is a means of gratifying. (Para. 5)The worth of money lies only in the things it will buy; people don’t desire money for its own sake, and money is just a way to satisfy people’s desire for other things.

gratify:v. give pleasure or satisfaction to (sb.)

. I was most gratified at/by/with the outcome of the meeting.

It gratified me to hear of your success.

I was gratified that they appreciated what I did for them.

20. It may, then, be said truly, that money is desired not for the sake of an end, but as part of the end.

From being a means to happiness, it has come to be itself a principal ingredient of the ind ividual’s conception of happiness. (Para. 5) Therefore, we may say that money is desired not to fulfill a purpose, but as part of the purpose. From being a way to obtain happiness, money itself has become a main part of the individual’s idea of happiness.

principal:a. first in rank or importance; chief; main

. the principal members of the government

The Danube is one of the principal rivers of Europe.

The principal aim of the policy is to bring peace to the area.

The low salary is her principal reason for leaving the job.

21. The same may be said of the majority of the great objects of human life: power, for example, or

fame; except that to each of these there is a certain amount of immediate pleasure annexed, which has at least the semblance of being naturally inherent in them—a thing which cannot be said of money.(Para. 5) The same thing may happen to most of the great goals of human life: for example, power or fame; except that here is a certain amount of instant pleasure attached to power or fame, which at least looks like a natural part of them. We cannot find such immediate pleasure naturally inherent in money.

annex:v. add or join sth. to a larger thing

. A new wing has been annexed to the hospital.

inherent a. existing as a natural or permanent feature or quality of sb./sth.

. an inherent distrust of foreigners

an inherent weakness in a design

the power inherent in the office of President

semblance of sth.appearance of being sth.; likeness to sth.

. put on a semblance of cheerfulness

bring the meeting to some semblance of order

22. Still, however, the strongest natural attraction, both of power and of fame, is the immense aid they

give to the attainment of our other wishes; and it is the strong association thus generated between them and all our objects of desire, which gives to the direct desire of them the intensity it often assumes, so as in some characters to surpass in strength all other desires. (Para. 5) Still, however, the strongest natural attraction of both power and of fame lies in the fact that they offer us great help to achieve our other wishes; thus a close relationship is built between them and all our objects of desire, which makes people desire them directly with passion, so that in some aspects people’s desire for them are stronger than all other desires.

immense:a. extremely large

. immense difficulties, problems, possibilities, etc

of immense importance

surpass v. do or be better than sb./sth.; exceed sb./sth.

. surpass sb. in speed, strength, skill

It will be hard to surpass this very high score.

The beauty of the scenery surpassed all my expectations.

23. Happiness is not an abstract idea, but a concrete whole; and these are some of its parts. (Para. 5)

abstract:a. existing in thought or as an idea but not having a physical or practical existence

. We may talk of beautiful things, but beauty itself is abstract.

He has some abstract notion of wanting to change the world.

concrete a. existing in material form; that can be touched, felt, etc

. Physics deals with the forces acting on concrete objects.

24. And the utilitarian standard sanctions and approves their being so. (Para. 5)

sanction:v. give one’s permission for (sth.); authorize or approve

. I can’t sanction your methods.

Who sanctioned bombing the town

They won’t sanction our spending on this scale.

25. Virtue, according to the utilitarian conception, is a good of this description. There was no original

desire of it, or motive to it, save its conduciveness to pleasure, and especially to protection from pain. (Para. 6) Originally people didn’t have desire of or motive to virtue, except that virtue helps people get pleasure, and especially helps protect people from pain.

26. ...and with this difference between it and the love of money, of power, or of fame—that all of these

may, and often do, render the individual noxious to the other members of the society to which he belongs, whereas there is nothing which makes him so much a blessing to them as the cultivation of the disinterested love of virtue. (Para. 6) …virtue may be felt a good in itself and desired as a good with as great passion as any other good, which makes it different from the love of money, of power, or of fame — all of these may, and often do, cause the individual to be harmful to the other members of the society to which he belongs, whereas the cultivation of the unselfish love of virtue makes him a blessing to them.

render:v. cause (sb./sth.) to be in a certain condition

. rendered helpless by an accident

Your action has rendered our contract invalid.

noxious:a. harmful; poisonous

. noxious fumes, gases, ect

27. And consequently, the utilitarian standard, while it tolerates and approves those other acquired

desires, up to the point beyond which they would be more injurious to the general happiness than promotive of it, enjoins and requires the cultivation of the love of virtue up to the greatest strength possible, as being above all things important to the general happiness. (Para. 6)Therefore, although the utilitarian standard tolerates and approves those other acquired desires as long as they would promote rather than causing injury to the general happiness, it orders and requires the individual cultivate the love of virtue with the greatest efforts possible, making the love of virtue the most important to the general happiness.

injurious:a. causing or likely to cause injury; harmful

. Smoking is injurious to the health.

enjoin:v. impose(an action or prohibition) on sb.; order

. He enjoined obedience on his followers.

The leader enjoined that the rules should be obeyed.

28. If the opinion which I have now stated is psychologically true—if human nature is so constituted as

to desire nothing which is not either a part of happiness or a means of happiness, we can have no other proof, and we require no other, that these are the only things desirable. (Para. 8) If the opinion which I have now stated is psychologically true—if human nature is formed to desire either a part of happiness or a means of happiness and nothing else, then we can prove that these are the only things people desire.

constitute:v. make up or form (a whole); be the components of

. Twelve months constitute a year.

The committee is constituted of members of all three parties.

He is so constituted( ie His nature is such) that he can accept criticism without resentment.

III. Key to the exercises

1. Reading comprehension

(1) This text is a typical argument essay which should contain three parts: the introduction, the body, and the

conclusion. The structure of the text is as follows. Summarize the main idea of each part.

The introduction (Para. 1): The author gives a brief explanation of the argument.

The body (Para. 2-7): The author presents both sides of the argument with an assessment of each.

The conclusion (Para. 8): The author comes to the conclusion that happiness is the sole end of human action.

(2) The opponents of utilitarian standards don’t believe that happiness is the sole criterion for morality. They

deem that they have a right to infer that there are other ends of human action besides happiness, and that happiness is not the standard of approbation and disapprobation, because people do desire things which are decidedly distinguished from happiness and which are as authentic a fact as the desire of happiness.

(3) As to virtue, the utilitarian doctrine maintains not only that virtue is to be desired, but also that it is to be

desired disinterestedly, for itself. Virtue, according to the utilitarian doctrine, is not naturally and originally part of the end, but it is capable of becoming so; and in those who love it disinterestedly it has become so, and is desired and cherished, not as a means to happiness, but as a part of their happiness. (4) In paragraph 5, John Stuart Mill says, “What was once desired as an instrument for the attainment of

happiness, has come to be desired for its own sake.” For example, there is nothing originally more desirable about money than about any heap of glittering pebbles. Its worth is solely that of the things which it will buy; the desires for other things than itself, which it is a means of gratifying. Yet the love of money is not only one of the strongest moving forces of human life, but money is, in many cases, desired in and for itself. From being a means to happiness, it has come to be itself a principal ingredient of the individual’s conception of happiness.

(5) According to paragraph 6, to best make an individual a blessing to other members of the society, it

requires the cultivation of the disinterested love of virtue up to the greatest strength possible.

2) Translate the following paragraph into English.

We all come to the world, but why do some of us make great achievements known forever and why are they remembered forever even though they leave the world And why do some leave the world without anything valuable to his generation and the people Every one of us will hope to have a valuable life. But what kind of life is valuable The answer to the question is that "The life value should be judged from his contribution rather than his possession." Einstein said. We know for certain that not all of us will be Einstein. However, a person of noble aspirations will do solid work. With continuous efforts, he will try to make his greatest contribution in his shortest time. He will try what he can to bring benefit to the people in his lifetime. We’d say it is impossible for one to live alone if he isolates society and people. If he hopes to have a meaningful life, he will bring benefit and make contribution to people.

B. English to Chinese

1) Translate the following paragraph into Chinese.

基于上述考虑,我们得出的结论是,除了幸福,事实上不存在其他任何被渴望的东西。无论何种事物被作为实现某种更高目的(最终为幸福)的手段而受到渴望,都是因为它本身被视为幸福的一部分而受到渴望,并且只有在它确实变成幸福的一部分后它本身才会被渴望。那些渴望美德本身的人,对美德的渴望要么是因为意识到拥有美德是一种快乐,要么是因为意识到缺乏美德是一种痛苦,或者是因为两者兼而有之。快乐和痛苦很少单独存在而几乎只是形影相随,一个人往往因获得了一定程度的美德而感到快乐,同时又因没有得到更多的美德而感到痛苦。如果获得一定的美德并不能给他带来快乐,而未获得更多的美德也没有使他感到痛苦,那么他就不会去热爱和渴望美德,或者对它的渴望仅仅是出于它可能会为自己或自己关心的人带来其他的益处。

2) Read the passage carefully and translate the underlined sentences into Chinese.

(2)这份发表在上周的《肥胖症评论》杂志上的报告发现,在过去的二十年间,即使是在美国青少年体重增加了的情况下,他们的活动量事实上并没有发生显着的变化。

(3)简单地说,体重反映了两个变量之间的平衡:身体吸收的卡路里和燃烧的卡路。研究表明,对于一般的美国青少年而言,体重增加的罪魁祸首不是锻炼的减少,而是食品消耗的增加。

(4)自1991年以来,上体育课的青少年的百分比保持相对平稳;平均起来,上课学生比例的年变化率不超过1%。

(5)虽然那个结论可能很有吸引力,但王和其他的健康专家说,这些新的数据所要真正表明的却并不是那样的。这些发现更多告诉我们的,不是锻炼的作用,而是有关体重公式中的另一变量,即饮食的情况,以及饮食与锻炼的互动关系。

Your translation should be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points) It was only after I started to write a weekly column about the medical journals, and began to read scientific papers from beginning to end, that I realised just how bad much of the medical literature frequently was. I came to recognise various signs of a bad paper: the kind of paper that purports to show that people who eat more than one kilo of broccoli a week were 1.17 times more likely than those who eat less to suffer late in life from pernicious anaemia. (46) There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals which, when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press, generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms. Why is so much bad science published? A recent paper, titled “The Natural Selection of Bad Science”, published on the Royal Society’s open science website, attempts to answer this intriguing and important question. It says that the problem is not merely that people do bad science, but that our current system of career advancement positively encourages it. What is important is not truth, but publication, which has become almost an end in itself. There has been a kind of inflationary process at work: (47) nowadays anyone applying for a research post has to have published twice the number of papers that would have been required for the same post only 10 years ago. Never mind the quality, then, count the number. (48) Attempts have been made to curb this tendency, for example, by trying to incorporate some measure of quality as well as quantity int o the assessment of an applicant’s papers. This is the famed citation index, that is to say the number of times a paper has been quoted elsewhere in the scientific literature, the assumption being that an important paper will be cited more often than one of small account. (49) This would be reasonable if it were not for the fact that scientists can easily arrange to cite themselves in their future publications, or get associates to do so for them in return for similar favours. Boiling down an individual’s o utput to simple metrics, such as number of publications or journal impacts, entails considerable savings in time, energy and ambiguity. Unfortunately, the long-term costs of using simple quantitative metrics to assess researcher merit are likely to be quite great.

I began to write up my diaries of my desert excursions, attempting to publish a book on my camel expedition. That idea failed, but I had picked up a writing habit on weekends and public holidays and in 1997 I started my first novel, loosely based on my family heritage in China—which I finished in 2002.” In 2003 it was published by Hodder & Stoughton as …The Palace of Heavenly Pleasure?. While continuing to live in Beijing working for Jardines, he now spends several months of the year in Italy where he b ought a house for writing. Several more books followed. …The Palace of Heavenly Pleasure?, set in the Boxer Rebellion, became the first in a trilogy. 那是一种很有意义的冒险生活,但是总觉得缺少了点什么。“我记得自己在上学的时候写过戏剧,那个时候野心勃勃,励志要成为一个讲故事的人。我开始写我的沙漠旅行日记,试图出一本关于我的骆驼探险队的书,结果失败了。但我逐渐养成了在周末以及节假日进行写作的习惯。1997年,我开始写我的第一本小说,内容大致基于我们家族在中国的生活。这本小说于2002年完成。”2003年,该书由霍德&斯托顿出版公司出版,名为《天乐院》。 现在,威廉姆斯除了继续在北京为怡和集团工作之外,每年还会抽几个月到意大利一所他专门买来进行写作的房子里待几个月。于是便有了之后的几本书。以“义和团运动”为背景的《天乐院》,成为了三部曲中的第一部。

研究生英语课后习题测试

1 大学课堂:还有人在听吗? 12.The lecture system ultimately harms professors as well. It reduces feedback to a minimum, so that the lecturer can neither judge how well students understand the material nor benefit from their questions or comments. Questions that require the speaker to clarify obscure points and comments that challenge sloppily constructed arguments are indispensable to scholarship. Without them, the liveliest mind can atrophy. Undergraduates may not be able to make telling contributions very often, but lecturing insulates a professor even from the beginner’s na?ve question that could have triggered a fruitful line of thought. 讲课制度最终也会危害到教授们。反馈减少到了最低点,因此讲课者既不能判断学生对材料的了解程度,也不能受益于学生的提问或评论。学生要求说话者澄清模糊论点所提出的问题,以及挑战结构松散的论据的评论,这对于学术是必不可少的。没有这些,最活跃的头脑也会萎缩。大学生也许还不能够常常做出显著的贡献,但是讲课把教授同新生天真的问题阻隔开了,而这些问题很可能会引起一系列思考。 14.Smaller classes in which students are required to involve themselves in discussion put an end to students’ passivity. Students become actively involved when forced to question their own ideas as well as their instructor’s. their listening skills improve dramatically in the excitement of intellectual give-and-take with their instructors and yellow students. Such interchanges help professors do their job better because they allow them to discover who knows what—before final exams, not after. When exams are given in this type of course, they can require analysis and synthesis from the students, not empty memorization. Classes like this require energy, imagination, and commitment from professors, all of which can be exhausting. But they compel students to share responsibility for their own intellectual growth. 如果班级较小又要求学生参加讨论,这就会消除学生的被动性。学生被迫对他们自己和老师的思想表示怀疑时,他们就变得主动参与了。他们听的技巧在与老师和同学的学术交流所带来的刺激中大大得到提高。这种交替互动能够帮助教师做得更好,因为他们会发现谁知道什么---在期末考试前,而不是之后。这种形式的课程考试要求学生分析和综合,而不是空洞的记忆。这样的课程需要教授们的活力、想象力和投入,所有这些都会令人精疲力竭的。但是,这也使得学生为他们自己的学术成长分担责任。 2 家与旅行 第二段 13、Taken altogether, the things that mattered a great deal to me when I was a child are very few when I compare them to the overloaded tables and overcrowded shelves through which children today have to thread their way. Only if they are very fortunate will they be able to weave together into memories the ill-assorted mass of gadgets, toys, and easily forgotten objects, objects without a past or a future, and piles of snapshots that will be replaced by new, brightly colored snapshots next year. 现在的孩子书桌和书架上都堆满了东西。和他们比起来,童年时对我有意义的东西加在一起也没有几件。但是只有当他们非常幸运的时候,他们记忆中才有可能出现那些杂乱无章

研究生英语综合教程(上)熊海虹课后部分翻译答案 (1)1

第一单元 “一年365 天,一周7 天,一天24 小时,生意始终在进行,那意味着一年365 天,一周7 天,一天24 小时,竞争也同样在进行,”豪特说,“公司取胜的方法之一就是要更快地到达‘目的地’!这就是说,你不仅要把所有能支持公司快速运转的功能都调动起来,而且还得知道如何决定‘目的地’是哪里。这样,不仅对那些行动快速的人们,也对那些思维敏捷,并有勇气按自己的想法行事的人们都提出了要求。这需要全公司各部门的运作,而不仅仅是管理部门的工作。 “Business happens 24/7/365, which means that competition happens 24/7/365, as well,” says Haut. “One way that companies win is by getting …there? faster, which means that you not only have to mobilize all of the functions that support a business to move q uickly, but you have to know how t o decide where …there? is! This creates a requirement not only for people who can act quickly, but for those who can think fast with the courage to act on their convictions. This needs to run throughout an organization and is not exclusive to management.” 最后,职业地位包含对职业标准的遵守。很多律师通过在行业内外把自己塑造成一个具有良好职业道德的典范来找到自我价值。对那些在所有职业行为中都表现出极度正直和谦逊有礼的律师们来说,当管理阶层对他们理应受到的特别尊重表示肯定时,便又获得了另一种形式的精神报酬。 Lastly, professional status encompasses adherence to ethical standards. Most lawyers find self worth in setting an example—both within the profession and within the larger society—as ethical actors. When management affirms the special respect due to lawyers who act with the utmost integrity and civility in all of their professional dealings, it provides yet another form of compensation. 第四单元 很多研究发现婴儿获得关爱的质量会影响到他们以后的交友,在学校的表现,如何应对陌生的或可能充满压力的情况,以及他们成年后如何建立并且维系情感连系。正是因为这些原因,人们与家庭成员的早期亲密关系才如此至关重要。在人情冷漠的环境中(如孤儿院,某些寄养家庭,或缺乏关爱的家庭)长大的孩子会出现情感和社会性发育不良,语言和运动技能迟缓,以及精神健康问题。Much research shows that the quality of care infants receive affects how they later get along with friends, how well they do in school, how they react to new and possibly stressful situations, and how they form and maintain loving relationships as adults. It is for these reasons thatpeople's early intimate relationships within their family of origin1 are so critical. Children who are raised in impersonal environments (orphanage, some foster homes, or unloving families) show emotional and social underdevelopment, language and motor skills retardation, and mental health problems. 一开始让人相互吸引的是什么?许多人相信“世上有一个人是你为之而生的”,而且命运会将你俩带到一起。这样的想法很浪漫却不现实。实证研究发现,是文化标准和价值观而非命运,将人们连系在一起。我们错过了成千上万的可能的爱人,因为他们早就被正式的或非正式的挑选理想爱人的准则筛选出局,这些准则包括年龄、种族、地域、社会阶层、宗教、性倾向、健康状况或外表。 What attracts individuals to each other in the first place? Many people believe that "there's one person out there that one is meant for" and that destiny will bring them together. Such beliefs are romantic but unrealistic. Empirical studies show that cultural norms and values, not fate, bring people together We will never meet millions of potential lovers because they are "filtered out" by formal or informal rules on partner eligibility due ton factors such as age, race, distance, Social class, religion, sexual orientation, health, or physical appearanc e. 第五单元 做瑜伽没有场地的限制,一套瑜伽动作通常需要20 分钟到两个小时或者更多的时间,而一个小时左右的时间则是一系列动作和冥想的最佳选择。根据瑜伽师和学派的不同,一些瑜伽动作做起来辛苦异常,而另一些却只是在呼吸和心跳平稳的情况下调整和伸展肢体。每天练习瑜伽会达到最好的效果,随着动作越来越熟练,你就可以加大强度和难度这样瑜伽就能成为你相伴终生的日常锻炼方式了。练习基础的瑜伽动作即可收到增强力量,改善柔韧性并使人感到舒适的效果,但要想达到完美和高深的境界还是需要日积月累的练习,这也是瑜伽吸引人的地方之一。 Yoga routines can take anywhere from 20 minutes to two or more hours, with one hour being a good time investment to perform a sequence of postures and a meditation. Some yoga routines, depending on the teacher and school, can be as strenuous as the most difficult workout, and some routines merely stretch and align the body while the breath and heart rate are kept slow and steady. Yoga achieves its best results when it is practiced as a daily discipline, and yoga can be a life-long exercise routine, offering deeper and more challenging positions as a practitioner becomes more adept. The basic positions can increase a person?s strength, flexibility and sense of well-being almost immediately, but it can take years to perfect and deepen them, which is an appealing and stimulating aspect of yoga for many. 第七单元 人性的恒定性是众所周知的,因为没有人相信一个人能够从根本上改变他的本性。这就是为什么一个恶名远扬的人很难重建公众对他的信心。人们凭经验知道某一年中表现出无赖性格的人不太可能在第二年有任何改观。小偷也不会变成值得信赖的员工。吝
