Section 2 Being Jack of All Trades and Master of None

一、背景知识

中国文化历史悠久,博大精深,是人类文明的重要组成部分。中国书画作品、民间工艺品、陶瓷、刺绣、风筝等都是中国文化产品,无不体现着中国文化的精神和传承。

中国山水画独特传统是创造“意境”,即把画家来自生活的情思放在主导地位,追求景象的形神统一,是客观的景与主观的情相统一,达到情景交融和天人合一的境界。

中国花鸟画有较强的抒情性。画家在描绘对象外在特征的同时,把自身对于自然、社会、人生的认识、感受、情感和态度融于其中,达到“寄物言志”的目的。花鸟画中形似和不拘泥于形似,追求“不似之似”与妙在“似与不似之间”。

书法是中国特有的具有悠久历史和民族特色的传统艺术。书法作品富有造型美、抒情美、意境美,如画、如乐、如诗。其流动的笔迹线条,不但曲折地连接着自然万象之美,而且直接表现着人的精神之美。

剪纸既是中国民间最为流行的手工艺之一,也是中国最为普及的装饰艺术之一。剪纸是一种利用空白来表现画面的平面构图艺术。完成后的剪纸作品有许多空白之处,但必须保持上下串通、左右关联,以保证画面的完整性。

陶瓷是陶器和瓷器的总称。中国是陶瓷的故乡,英语中就是用磁器(china)来指称中国。据考证,8000年前,中国就有陶器了。景德镇的青白瓷可称天下第一,其瓷白如玉,薄如纸,声如磬,明如镜。目前,中国的陶瓷制品不仅是世界人民喜爱的、生活必不可少的日用器具,而且成为颇具艺术欣赏价值的装饰品和收藏品。

Section 4 Being a Calligrapher of English Handwriting

一、背景知识

写英文字就像写汉字一样,如果能写得一手漂亮的英文,自然会给读者一种很好的印象。俗话说:“字是人的脸。”“字如其人。”就是这个道理。一幅好的英文书法作品表达一种抽象的意境,启迪人的思维,给人以美的享受。

另外,漂亮、整洁的书写也是对阅读者的一种尊重。秘书工作中,很多情况需要手写文书或随时做各种笔记。因此,写得一手好英文字对于秘书来说也是十分重要的。这会帮助秘书的工作更好地进行。

在英文书法的发展过程中,逐渐形成了国际通用的三种主流字体,即意大利体、手写印刷体和圆体。三种字体各有特点,意大利体潇洒又不失平稳;手写印刷体简洁明快、秀中带刚;圆体又称花体,圆润流畅,灵动飘逸。

每个人的中文字到现在基本上已定型了,不容易再改了,但是英文字,却是从头开始。只要心想,就能事成。当然,成功是要用心思、花气力的。

写好英文字最重要的、也是最基本的就是把每个字母写得要一样大小,字母间距也要一样宽窄,至于写哪种体,可因个人的爱好,加以选择。

选好之后,就要记住所选字体的要领,苦练。还要记住一件事:练习写英文字,最初一定要在四线格本(英文练习本)上练习,直到能把字母大小和字母间距的宽窄写得大小一样了,才可以在白纸上练习。

每一位秘书都可以写出最漂亮、最潇洒的英文作品,但是刻苦练习是前提。

二、课前提问

1.Do you know what’s calligraphy?

2.Can you write English letters correctly according to their strokes?

第四部分写一手漂亮英语书法

众所周知,字是门面,每个人都要注意自己的书写,尤其是读书人。当然不仅如此,如果一个人写字认真、清晰,别人容易辨认阅读,就不会浪费别人的时间。实际上,写字清晰也是尊重别人的一种方法。

秘书应该也必须带头写一手好字。每天秘书都要做大量的书写工作。尽管现在用电脑帮助处理文字,但是秘书不能总是用电脑写字,更经常用手写。如果文字书写得清楚,相关的事情就办得更有效率。

1. 一定要把大写字母写得比小写字母稍大一些,稍高一些。

2.一定要把每个字母写得一样大,字母之间留有同样的空间;

3.一定要把小写字母a 和o分清,n和u分清。

常用的书写方法有三种。一种是圆体,书写时,字母间可连写。另一种是印刷体,书写时,字母间不连写。第三种是意大利体,书写时部分字母连写。那种书写方法都很好,但最好固定练习一种,否则,在三只“兔子”后面跑,一只也抓不住。

六、课文录音全文

It is common knowledge that one’s handwriting is one’s face and everyone, especially a scholar, should take good care not to lose it. Furthermore, if one writes carefully and clearly, the handwriting can be read easily without wasting the time of others’. Actually, it is one way to respect anyone who reads it.

A secretary should and must take the lead to write legibly. Everyday, the secretary has to do a substantial amount. Though a computer is now used to help in word processing, the secretary can not trouble it all the time. She or he has to write with their hands more often. If the handwriting is clear enough, the matters concerned can be done more efficiently.

The tips for handwriting should be kept in mind as follows:

8.Be sure to make one’s capital letters a little bigger and higher than the small letters.

9.Be sure to write the letters with the same size and the same space between letters.

10.Be sure to make the a’s different from the o’s and the n’s from the u’s.

11.Be sure to dot the i’s and j’s and cross the t’s.

12.Be sure to leave a little space (about one letter) after a comma and a slightly bigger

space (about two letters) after a period.

13.Be sure not to bracket the word, but draw a thick line across it in order to cross out a

word.

14.Be sure to write the word above it, not below it, when you want to add a word in a line

of words and the line must have a clear sign showing where the word is to be inserted.

There are three common ways of writing the letters. One is cursive, another is to print (to write without joining the letters), and still another is the Italian style. All are good, but it is better to stick to one of the three styles. Better not to run after all three ―hares‖ or you will catch none of them.

《土木工程专业英语》段兵延第二版全书文章翻译精编版

第一课 土木工程学土木工程学作为最老的工程技术学科,是指规划,设计,施工及对建筑环境的管理。此处的环境包括建筑符合科学规范的所有结构,从灌溉和排水系统到火箭发射设施。 土木工程师建造道路,桥梁,管道,大坝,海港,发电厂,给排水系统,医院,学校,公共交通和其他现代社会和大量人口集中地区的基础公共设施。他们也建造私有设施,比如飞机场,铁路,管线,摩天大楼,以及其他设计用作工业,商业和住宅途径的大型结构。此外,土木工程师还规划设计及建造完整的城市和乡镇,并且最近一直在规划设计容纳设施齐全的社区的空间平台。 土木一词来源于拉丁文词“公民”。在1782年,英国人John Smeaton为了把他的非军事工程工作区别于当时占优势地位的军事工程师的工作而采用的名词。自从那时起,土木工程学被用于提及从事公共设施建设的工程师,尽管其包含的领域更为广阔。 领域。因为包含范围太广,土木工程学又被细分为大量的技术专业。不同类型的工程需要多种不同土木工程专业技术。一个项目开始的时候,土木工程师要对场地进行测绘,定位有用的布置,如地下水水位,下水道,和电力线。岩土工程专家则进行土力学试验以确定土壤能否承受工程荷载。环境工程专家研究工程对当地的影响,包括对空气和地下水的可能污染,对当地动植物生活的影响,以及如何让工程设计满足政府针对环境保护的需要。交通工程专家确定必需的不同种类设施以减轻由整个工程造成的对当地公路和其他交通网络的负担。同时,结构工程专家利用初步数据对工程作详细规划,设计和说明。从项目开始到结束,对这些土木工程专家的工作进行监督和调配的则是施工管理专家。根据其他专家所提供的信息,施工管理专家计算材料和人工的数量和花费,所有工作的进度表,订购工作所需要的材料和设备,雇佣承包商和分包商,还要做些额外的监督工作以确保工程能按时按质完成。 贯穿任何给定项目,土木工程师都需要大量使用计算机。计算机用于设计工程中使用的多数元件(即计算机辅助设计,或者CAD)并对其进行管理。计算机成为了现代土木工程师的必备品,因为它使得工程师能有效地掌控所需的大量数据从而确定建造一项工程的最佳方法。 结构工程学。在这一专业领域,土木工程师规划设计各种类型的结构,包括桥梁,大坝,发电厂,设备支撑,海面上的特殊结构,美国太空计划,发射塔,庞大的天文和无线电望远镜,以及许多其他种类的项目。结构工程师应用计算机确定一个结构必须承受的力:自重,风荷载和飓风荷载,建筑材料温度变化引起的胀缩,以及地震荷载。他们也需确定不同种材料如钢筋,混凝土,塑料,石头,沥青,砖,铝或其他建筑材料等的复合作用。 水利工程学。土木工程师在这一领域主要处理水的物理控制方面的种种问题。他们的项目用于帮助预防洪水灾害,提供城市用水和灌溉用水,管理控制河流和水流物,维护河滩及其他滨水设施。此外,他们设计和维护海港,运河与水闸,建造大型水利大坝与小型坝,以及各种类型的围堰,帮助设计海上结构并且确定结构的位置对航行影响。 岩土工程学。专业于这个领域的土木工程师对支撑结构并影响结构行为的土壤和岩石的特性进行分析。他们计算建筑和其他结构由于自重压力可能引起的沉降,并采取措施使之减少到最小。他们也需计算并确定如何加强斜坡和填充物的稳定性以及如何保护结构免受地震和地下水的影响。 环境工程学。在这一工程学分支中,土木工程师设计,建造并监视系统以提供安全的饮用水,同时预防和控制地表和地下水资源供给的污染。他们也设计,建造并监视工程以控制甚至消除对土地和空气的污染。他们建造供水和废水处理厂,设计空气净化器和其他设备以最小化甚至消除由工业加工、焚化及其他产烟生产活动引起的空气污染。他们也采用建造特殊倾倒地点或使用有毒有害物中和剂的措施来控制有毒有害废弃物。此外,工程师还对垃圾掩埋进行设计和管理以预防其对周围环境造成污染。

项目化高职文秘职业英语口语课程开发的探索与研究

项目化高职文秘职业英语口语课程开发的 探索与研究 目前,我国高职院校的教学方式仍以学生被动接受为主要特征,课堂教学以教师为中心,以课本为中心,忽视学生创新精神和实践能力的培养。教学内容也存在着明显的不适应性,主要表现为:教学内容较陈旧,未及时更新,与当前社会需求脱节;针对性与实用性不足,影响了高职教育为生产、服务、管理第一线培养急需人才的目标实现。研究表明,允许学生的思维自由飞翔,不断地迸发出创造的灵感、智慧的火花。在这种环境中创造性思维、发散性思维、跳跃性思维才能得到实实在在的训练和强化。项目化课程的核心内涵是,把专业基础课和专业课程的教学内容设计成一个个具体的工作项目,有机地构成与职业岗位实际业务密切对接的工作内容。学生以项目组(团队)的形式,自主完成工作过程,并获得综合职业知识和职业能力。 一、项目化课程开发的背景 在我国,项目教学是随着中外职业教育合作项目被引进的,职业院校大规模和自主实验推广项目课程始于21世纪初期。从2003年起,教育部、原劳动社会保障部等多部委联合实施现代服务业和制造业技能型紧缺人才培养培训工程。该工程确立了我国当代职业教育课程开发的指导思想,如强调专业学习的目的是掌握合理利用专业知识技能独立解决专业问题的能力,强调教学内容的重点是实际工作所需要的、带有一定经验性质的工作过程知识和技能等。这样打破学科课程体系、

按照完整的工作过程进行综合性教育项目的开发,成为职业教育课程开发的重要任务。 项目课程开发的关键是学习任务的设计,而国内外教育学界至今对教学项目主要是从课程教学法的角度进行研究,主要集中在工科类教学研究上,对文科类特别是语言类课程改革的研究还比较少,目前的课程要么用本科的内容,要么是脱离职业岗位的一般口语, 整体语言类项目化成果很少。因此笔者通过文秘职业英语口语课程开发的研究与实践,希望对完善语言类课程改革的理论和实践有所贡献,同时在构建完整的项目化课程实践操作模式方面积累经验,为其他院校的相关课程改革提供借鉴。 二、项目化课程改革的思路与措施 职业教育改革要求学校和教师按职业活动进行课程的综合与整合。高职文秘职业英语口语课程的开发,一方面强调涉外文秘工作事务中英语听说的能力,让学生掌握技能;另一方面关注办公室工作中常见的涉外工作项目,培养学生做事的能力,学会更好地做事,创新教育、素质教育和专业教育紧密结合,形成一个可操作、可训练、可检验、有成果的实施体系,使人才培养模式能较好地解决学生综合职业能力的形成问题。 1.高职文秘职业英语口语项目化课程创新教学模式 构建项目导向、中外联合、有利于语言输入输出的创新教学模式。传统的教学模式以知识的传承、信息的获取和保存为中心,以间接知识为主,教学以教师讲授为主,很少让学生通过自己的活动与实践

In many, including Canada and the United States, reinforced concrete is a dominant structural material in engineered construction. (1)混凝土和钢筋混凝土在每个国家都被用作建筑材料。在许多国家,包括加拿大和美国,钢筋混凝土是一种主要的工程结构材料。 (2)The universal nature of reinforced concrete construction stems from the wide availability of reinforcing bars and the constituents of concrete, gravel, sand, and cement, the relatively simple skills required in concrete construction. (2) 钢筋混凝土建筑的广泛存在是由于钢筋和制造混凝土的材料,包括石子,沙,水泥等,可以通过多种途径方便的得到,同时兴建混凝土建筑时所需要的技术也相对简单。 (3)Concrete and reinforced concrete are used in bridges, building of all sorts, underground structures, water tanks, television towers, offshore oil exploration and production structures, dams, and even in ships. (3)混凝土和钢筋混凝土被应用于桥梁,各种形式的建筑,地下结构,蓄水池,电视塔,海上石油平台,以及工业建筑,大坝,甚至船舶等。 (4)Reinforce concrete structures consist of a series of individual members that interact to support the loads placed on the structure. The floor of concrete buildings is often built of concrete joist-slab construction. (4)钢筋混凝土结构由一系列单独构件组成,这些构件通过相互作用共同抵抗施加在结构上的荷载。混凝土建筑的楼层通常采用肋梁楼盖的形式。 (5)A series of parallel ribs or joists support the load from the top slab. The reactions supporting the joists apply load to the beams, which in turn are supported by the columns. (5)一系列的平行梁肋或次梁抵抗其上楼板传来的荷载,次梁的反力作为荷载施加在主粱上,主粱则支承在柱上。 (6)The slab transfers load laterally to the joists, and serves as the top flange of the joists, which act as T-shaped beams that transmit the load to the beams running at right angles to the joists. (6)楼板将荷载垂直传递给次梁,并且作为上翼缘和次梁一起形成T形截面梁,将荷载传递给与次梁正交的主粱。 (7)Some floors of have a slab-and-beam design in which the slab spans between beams, which in turn apply loads to the columns. (7)一些楼层被设计成梁板结构,即楼板直接支承在相邻的主粱上,主粱再将荷载传递到柱上。 (8)Concrete is strong in compression but weak in tension. As a result, cracks develop whenever loads, or restrained shrinkage or temperature changes, give rise to tensile stresses in excess of the tensile strength of the concrete. (8)混凝土的抗压能力很强但抗拉能力很弱。因此,当荷载、受约束的收缩或温度变化所引起的拉应力超过其抗拉强度时,混凝土中的裂缝就会开展。 (9)The construction of a reinforced concrete member involves building a form or mould in the shape of the member being built. The form must be strong enough to support the weight and hydrostatic pressure of the wet concrete. (9)钢筋混凝土构件的制作需要一个与构件形状相同的模子,其必须具有足够的强度以抵抗湿混凝土的重量和流动压力。 (10)The reinforcement is placed in this form and held in place during the concreting
