正文译文：Unit 12 永无休止的争论最近接受电视采访回答问题时，我表达了自己对困扰人们的迷信的蔑视。

采访者问：“可是，既然如您所承认的那样，大多数人们相信这种迷信的东西，并能从中得到安慰，为什么你还要人们放弃他们的信仰呢？镜头前，在可利用的短暂时间里，我尽可能地做了最好的回答。

但是现在我能做出更完善的回答，因为有更多的时间可供我支配。

实际上，下面才是我想说的。

原因有两个。

首先，我有义务这么做，有义务指出迷信的无用之处。

毋庸置疑，每个人都易于相信有神论者，当他们说他们有义务宣讲关于上帝世界的看法，并因拥有如此高尚的布道活动而赢得众人恭顺、尊敬时，那么，为什么我宣扬关于理智世界的观点就该遭到取笑呢？关于什么是理性，该怎样清楚地看世界，我有自己的看法。

与有神论者不同，我不会用地狱之火威胁任何人，即使他们拒绝接受我所说的每个字；我也不会企图用永久的幸福之类的鬼话来贿赂他们，只要他们认同我的每一句话。

相反地，我布道的世界里没有威逼，没有贿赂，只是纯粹为了认识而需努力去了解的东西。

与有神论者不同，我不会宣称拥有通往超自然力量的途径，也不断言有绝对的真理和关于过去、现在和将来问题的始终不变的答案。

相反地，我只是作为一个易犯错误的人，竭尽所能地改进自己对世界的认识，这种认识从某种程度上讲是代代相传的。

我只要求给我一个机会，谦逊而自由地表达见解。

其次，有人说迷信和伪科学给人们带来了安慰，缓解了痛苦，这并不能为迷信和伪科学辩护。

因此自认为杰出人物的我们不应该宣称知道得更多，从而剥夺人们纯洁的信仰。

如果说舒适是我们判断事物价值的标准，那么请想一想：香烟让吸烟者快乐；酒精让嗜酒者沉醉；各种各样的毒品让吸毒者沉溺；纸牌、跑马让赌博者兴奋；暴力给反社会的人带来快感。

只以此作标准，没有任何行为我们可以干涉。

诚然，所有这些都很容易给染上恶习的人们带来伤害，但是难道我们不可以就此质疑：人们从造成自身伤害的行为中得到快乐，真的如他们所认为的那样，只不过是他们自己的选择，仅与他们自己的身体健康、生命安全有关。

Unit 7Active reading (1)美好的回忆虽然这个房子已经换了许多户人家了，但直到现在我还记得那些筑墙、盖屋顶的工人。

当时马路对过那座庄园大宅的主人需要建一个小屋给他的园丁住。

他在这片连绵不断的巨大的丘陵果园中找到了一片空地，他派工人到本地的采石场运来金黄色的石头，工人花了三个月时间在园子里建起了这两座农家小屋。

我只从侧面看到过我的旁边的那座房子，我从来没有见过它的正面。

但是我知道，尽管我们在结构和外观上是一摸一样的，我们的朝向正好相反，这真是不可思议。

我的前门朝东，隔壁房子的前门是朝西的。

我的卧室在房子的后部，在隔壁那所房子里，这个位置正好是厨房的上面。

我的厨房在房子的前部，在隔壁的那个房子里，这个位置是在卧室的下方。

我觉得我比它幸运，因为每天早上，我这边的石头会在阳光的照耀下熠熠发光。

园丁精心地照料庄园周围的果园和花园，所以到了秋天，树上总是果实累累，结满了苹果和梨。

当白天越来越短的时候，这四周的土地上是一片忙碌的景象，帮工们采摘水果，把摘下的水果送到庄园去或是沿着那条路运到镇上的市场去卖。

除了秋天，其他时候这里非常安静。

园丁的生活好像很孤独，后来有一天，他带了一个年轻女子回家。

我这个房子里顿时充满了欢声笑语和饭菜的香味。

园丁外出干活的时候，他的妻子会照看我周围的花园，种玫瑰、水仙和郁金香，还有夏季植物和菊花。

从早春的鲜花到深秋的深深的金黄色叶子，花园里真是五彩缤纷。

能照看这样一对夫妇，我感觉很幸福。

没过多久，又有孩子要照看了。

头一个孩子是女孩，她常常高兴得咯咯笑，睡得也很沉。

后来又添了一个男孩，他哭起来嗓门很大，让我们大家都不得安宁。

但是他们都很快乐，也很听话。

他们会静静地在屋里或花园里一起玩耍。

渐渐地，他们长大了，也长高了。

最让我感到愉快的一个记忆是：在一个温暖的夏日，我看到男孩高高地坐在苹果树的枝干上，读着他最喜爱的那本书。

我的窗户是我的眼睛，它们对着绿树和田野。

窗外的风景被低矮的丘陵围绕着，仿佛一切都栖息在它温暖的怀抱里。

7A1|返朴归真| 琳达·韦尔特纳“我们讨论的是简化生活，而不是物质匮乏，”我的朋友萨拉解释说，“绝对不是你不可以做你喜欢的那些事情，而是你在改变，不再喜欢同样的事情罢了。

一些旧的习惯看上去是那样的浪费又不能令人满意，你真的对它们失去了兴趣。

所以你仍然拥有你需要的每一件东西——只不过不需要花那么多的钱罢了。

”2当我第一次遇见他们时，萨拉和迈克尔夫妇双双从业，拥有自己的住宅和用一大笔贷款购置的一条大船。

随着女儿的出世而他们又想亲自抚养她，他们开始对“自愿简朴”的理念产生了兴趣。

他们俩谁都不愿意把他们视为生活中最重要的部分仅仅局限于上班前的一小段时间和下班后已疲惫不堪的那几个小时。

3“许多人认为，因为有了孩子而且东西越来越贵，唯一的办法就是更加努力地工作以便挣更多的钱。

其实这并不是唯一的办法，”迈克尔坚持说。

4这对夫妻的决定是把两份全职工作业换成两份半日工作，并且削减消费。

他们决定只把钱花在有助于实现他们的主要目标的东西上：构建一个把家庭和友谊、工作和娱乐融为一体的生活天地，而且还是一个不浪费地球资源的生活天地。

5现在他们还在原来的那个近郊社区，住在一幢自己设计的、漂亮而节能的房子里。

按许多标准来看，房子虽然小了点，却容易清扫、布置、维修和供暖。

一层是个大房间，厨房靠墙，摆着一张桦木餐桌和吃饭用的几把椅子；一张舒适的长沙发和一个柴炉就把日常起居的范围圈定了；角落是工作区。

楼上是他们的卧室、一个萨拉和迈克尔共用的办公室和一间浴室。

整幢房子明亮简洁，同周围环境十分和谐。

很快，前门外还要建一个太阳能温室。

6一对只有兼职工作的夫妻怎么会有钱建造自己的房子、拥有一辆汽车并同另一对夫妻共享一艘小船，而且所有这一切都不曾贷款呢？他们如何能够维持足以提供他们想要的“一切”的那样一种高生活水平呢？他们放弃的而且不再怀念是哪些东西呢？7首先，他们放弃了乱七八糟的昂贵东西：（浴室）药柜里满满的从来不用的化妆品和在柜台上随时可以买到的药品；堆放在厨房壁柜里的最终只会丢弃的各种东西。

Unit 7面对退休的恐惧"等到你退休的时候，你就完了-你也就死了。

"这句简单而又广为接受的话语是一个77岁的公司创始人甚至在他结束退休生活, 又从他儿子那里重新拿回公司控制权之前常常念叨的一句话。

对于很多人来说，从他们所创下的事业中退下来似乎是一个生与死的大事。

难怪很少有人有这个勇气或想法去面对它。

这种对退休的恐惧常常在很早时候就表现在不愿意或不能够推行继承计划。

我们发现，这些不能够完成，甚至不能够开始执行继承计划的人往往有三种主要的观点：? "退休令我恐惧"。

? "我们将失去一切"。

? "这个事业就是我自己"。

退休是令人惊恐的。

在这样一个平静的生活尤其值得珍惜的时代，退休是一次崭新的前途未卜的旅程。

个人的经济保障也是坚持掌控企业的一个强有力的动力。

对于那些创业于家庭贫寒或失业时期的人来说，他们更加难以"交班"。

对于许多成功企业的创始人来说，他们的企业就是他们自身。

据说有一个90多岁高龄还在掌管公司的女老板，"工作就是她的氧气"。

有的企业家开始创业时至少部分是为了向曾经拒绝过或怀疑过他们能力的前老板证明自己的实力。

我们发现这些人比大部分人都有更加强烈的欲望抓住自己的企业不放。

因为这些或其他一些原因，有太多的企业创始人拒绝退休。

他们坚持认为只有他们才有能力经营好这个企业。

妒嫉或因权力旁落而产生的不安全感导致了人际间的矛盾。

这妨碍了继承计划的进行，甚至限制了未来继承者才能的发挥。

如果一个企业领导人还没有达到他所期望的目标，他往往会希望有机会继续留下来。

企业继承这一过程就成了一场战争而不是一个温文尔雅的交接。

然而，这场战争的各方都应该记住邱吉尔在警告国会时所说的一句话："如果我们就过去和现在之间展开争论的话，我们将发现我们已失去了未来。

"幸运的是，有许多企业家也在设法勇敢地、开放地、及早地面对继承计划。

Unit 11.我安排他们在小酒吧见面，但那个小伙子一直没有来。

I had arranged for them to meet each other at the pub but the young man never turned up.2.你无法仅凭表面现象判断形势是否会对我们不利。

Y ou cannot tell merely from appearance whether things will turn out unfavorable to us or not.3.那个士兵每次打仗都冲锋在前，从而赢得了国家的最高荣誉。

The soldier, who stood in the gap in every battle, gained the highest honors of the country.4.主席讲话很有说服力，委员会其他成员都听从他的意见。

The chairman spoke so forcefully that the rest of the committee yielded to his opinion.5.他们现在生活富裕了，但也曾经经历坎坷。

They are well-to-do now, but along the way they had their ups and downs.6.这次演讲我讲说明两个问题。

There are two questions to which I will address myself in this lecture.7.我们正筹划为你举办一次盛大的圣诞聚会。

We are planning a big Christmas party in your honors.8.听到那个曲子，我回想起了儿童时代。

Hearing that tune threw my mind back to my childhood.Unit 21.那只鸽子被卡在树杈里，一会儿就跌落下来。

觉得要跟大家共享下。

Unit1While Hitler decided to launch his invasion of Russia, he thought that nothing could stand in the way of his armies. Conquest, it seemed, was inevitable. He had surprise on his side, catching Stalin off his guard by launching his attack without a declaration of war. Hitler expected the campaign to last only a few months. In the event, it was to drag on for much longer. Like napoleon before him, he had made a fatal mistake in failing to reckon with the severity of the Russian weather. Many German solders were to die from the cold as winter set in, bringing the German advance to a halt.The offensive had been going on for three days, but we had won no decisive victory. Our troops engaging the enemy at the front were faced with stiff resistance. The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. In order to carry out the plan, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were worried that we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander determined to take a gamble. We set out under the cover of darkness and pressed on despite great difficulties ahead. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius. As aresult, the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we got to our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle all of a sudden. The enemy, who were caughtoff guard, soon gave in.Unit 2Hello, welcome to your new car. I’m your onboard computer-assisted driving system. It is my job to alert you to any hazards that may occur on the highway. From the moment you start up the car, I’ll be there to help you. When you want to relax, I can take control the steering in your place, guiding you from one lane to another. If a car in front of you slows down sudd enly, I’ll decrease your speed. If you get stuck in a traffic jam, the experience will no longer be so monotonous. Just sit back, relax, and let me eliminate the worry. When you want to convert back from automatic control to manual control, that’s easy, ju st press the right button mounted on the steering column.Automobiles changed the world during the 20th century particularly in the United States another industrialized nations. They are indeed of great use to us but they have brought some hazards as well such as noise and air pollution and highway fatalities. It is reported that automobile accidentsrank among the leading causes of death and injury throughout the world. Fortunately modern innovators are reinventing the automobile. New propulsion systems fuels designs and means of manufacturing cars have all developed rapidly in the past decade. For ex-ample by using the satellite-aided global positioning system (GPS) a computer in the automobile can locate the vehicle's precise position and with the application of sensors smart cars can eliminate most car accidents.Unit 3What is the best way to impress a prospective employer when you go for an interview for a job As I see it, the best thing is to demonstrate that you have done your homework and know all about the firm. You should make every endeavor, for example, to show that you know something about the structure of the company, including the different lines of business it is involved in. Be enthusiastic, let the interviewer know that you are not frightened by new challenges, but are willing to take a crack at anything. Try to look at the situation from the standpoint of the person offering the opportunity of employment. What sort of qualities is he likely to be looking for Enthusiasm, certainly. So don't leave your application waiting until just before the deadline. Apply early. Another thing that can make a difference is to follow up your interview with a letter expressing your enthusiasm to join the company.Well begun is half done as the saying goes. It is extremely important for a job applicant to do his homework while seeking employment. From my standpoint whether or not one has done his homework clearly makes a difference in his chance of success.I have a friend who is earning somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 thousand dollars a year in a large computer software company. He told me that from his own experience the decision makers who interview prospective employees like people who are well prepared. Those who make no endeavor to learn as much about his prospective employer as possible don't have much of a chance of successUnit 4Is America on the decline Or do we see in America a new civilization, one that will not follow historical precedent, but will continue to grow and develop It may be that in America we see for the first time a completely new civilization that does not follow the path of earlier empires. This new society is forging a fresh way of looking at the world, a new mentality. Its essential characteristic is a refusal to be discouraged, a willingness to try again and again rather than just accepting one’s destiny. It is a society based on pluralism, on the mixing of immigrants from different ethnics andculture backgrounds. The resulting combination of cultures gives America its unique vitality.Professor Huntington's paper greatly inspired me. According to him in a plural / pluralistic society there will inevitably be different opinions. The key is to deal with them in such a way that they can play a constructive rather than destructive role.He argues that in a plural/pluralistic society we must stress/attach importance to interpersonal relationships cooperation and looking at issues from the perspective of other people. If some groups regard themselves as superior and treat other ethnic groups or religions with disrespect the whole society may be paralyzed.I am convinced that if we put into practice the ideas mentioned above then there is the possibility of creating a new civilization.Unit 5You see that young man swimming ou t at sea He’s trying to swim out to the beacon and back. He must be insane to have committed himself to such a thing, the current is far too strong. I met him on the beach before he set out.I don’t mind telling you that I was taken back when he told me wh at he was going to do. I am a swimmer myself, but I wouldn’t attempt it. And he didn’t look in good condition at all. Far from it. He may have had a good constitution once, but he had clearly let himself go all to pieces. However, it seems like he had no choice. He told me that he had gone broke, not a penny left, and that old Burton would only find him a vacancy in his firm if he did the swim. That was another surprise. Burton seems such a mild mannered man, kind to everybody. Perhaps he thought the young man would not have the courage, that he would funk it. Then, again, perhaps Burton knew he was sending the young man to his death, but was too cold-blood to care. It only goes to show how deceptive appearances can be.For my own part, I should certainly hesitate to hire a clerk on hisface/appearance alone. Appearances are all too often deceptive. For instance you might well commit an error in judgment if you went by appearances only with people like Edward Hyde Burton the character created by Maugham. As far as appearance and manners were concerned Burton seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes. Kind gentle and candid he was described by many as one of the most respectable people on earth. Nevertheless he turned out to be cruel to a friend in need of his help. He insulted and fooled Turner who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was stillmore surprising was that he was completely in different to Turner’s death. There’s no doubt that Burton was a cold-blooded man.。

Unit1攻势已经持续了三天，但是我们并没有取得多少进展。

师长（division commander）命令我们营（battalion）夜晚绕到敌人后方发起突然袭击。

然而，要绕到敌人后方，我们必须越过一片沼泽地（marshland）。

我们很多人担心会陷入泥潭之中。

我们营长决定冒一下险。

所幸由于寒冷天气沼泽地都结上了冰，我们于天亮前到达目的地并从敌人后方发起进攻。

这一下扭转了战局。

敌人没有戒备，不久便投降了。

a marshland[ˈmɑrʃlænd] and many of us were afraid we['ɡæmbl]freeze [friz] over,we arrived at out destination before dawn and began attacking theUnit2汽车自从发明以来使交通运输发生了革命性的变化，永远地改变了人们的生活、旅游和办事的方式。

但另一方面，也带来了危害，尤其是公路死亡事故。

然而，现今由于计算机技术和电子传感器的使用，有可能消除发生的大多数交通事故。

例如，装在你汽车上的电子传感器能检测到空气中的酒精雾汽并拒绝启动引擎。

同样，传感器还能通过接受在轨道上运行的卫星发出的信号检测路况并大大减少你陷入交通拥堵的可能性。

Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business. On the other hand, they have brought[brɔt] hazards[ˈhæzədz], especially highway fatalities[feɪˈtælɪti:z] . However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors['sensəz] in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of trafficaccidents. For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol[ˈælkəhɔl] vapor [ˈvepɚ] in the air and refuse to start up the engine. They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals [ˈsɪɡnəls] sent out from orbiting satellites[ˈsætəlaits] and greatly reduce your chances of getting stuck in traffic jams.Unit3常言道，好的开端是成功的一半。
