Unit8 课文翻译课文AReflections of a Chinese mother in the West一位西方华裔母亲的思考1.很多人想了解中国父母是如何培养出如此成功的孩子的。
他们想知道,为什么这些中国父母能养育出那么多天分极佳的孩子,他们是否也能培养出这样的孩子呢?2.事实是,中国父母的做法,对固执己见的西方人来说,令人愤慨,难以想象,甚至是违法的。
中国母亲可以不客气地对正在狼吞虎咽的肥胖孩子说:“喂,小胖子,你要减肥了。
”与此相反,西方父母必须体谅地、小心翼翼而拐弯抹角地谈及“健康”,而且永远都不会提及“胖”字。
结果,孩子还是因为饮食紊乱和消极的自我评价得去求医问药。
长期以来我一直苦思冥想,中国父母这样做是如何能够全身而退的,我认为中西方的父母之间存在三种意识形态上的差异。
3.首先,我注意到西方父母呵护子女的自尊,使他们免受一切批评。
他们担心孩子失败后的感受,于是不断尽其所能解除子女的忧虑,而不管其表现如何糟糕。
西方父母认为孩子是娇弱的,不够坚强,因此他们的行为也就与中国父母大相径庭了。
4.举个例子,如果一个孩子考试得了个Aˉ回家,西方父母很可能会表扬孩子。
而对中国母亲来说,Aˉ根本不算什么好成绩;她还会不快地叹气,问到底出了什么问题。
如果孩子得了B 回家,一些西方父母尽管十分不情愿,仍然会表扬孩子。
其他西方父母会表达出不满,但不会质疑孩子的智力,或贸然说孩子“笨蛋”、“一文不值”或“太可恶了”。
而私下里,西方父母可能会感到担心,但绝不会让孩子们知道。
5.如果中国孩子得了B,不管什么科目,首先面临的就是一声尖叫和恼怒的爆发。
中国母亲会更加不遗余力地找来几十也许几百套的测验题,不惜采取手头任何办法来让自己孩子的成绩提高到A。
6.中国父母要求完美的成绩,因为他们理所当然地认为孩子完全可以做到,而且分数是比“自尊”更为重要的衡量成功的标准。
如果孩子没拿到全A,中国父母就认为这是因为孩子不够努力。

第八单元TEXT视若无睹在本特利酒店里,有八位日本绅士在吃鱼餐。
谁也不懂他们的话,但他们很少交谈,而说话时总是一副笑容可掬的样子,还常常微微鞠躬致意。
他们全戴眼镜,只有一位例外。
有时,坐在外边临窗座位的漂亮姑娘漫不经心地瞟他们一眼,然而,她似乎全神贯注于自己的事,除了她自己和她的同伴以外,世上任何人她都不会真正加以留意的。
她长着纤细的淡黄色头发,漂亮的鹅蛋脸小巧玲珑,颇符合摄政时期的风范,又像一幅袖珍肖像,不过她说起话来却粗声粗气——也许,这是她刚刚离开的母校的腔调,譬如说罗狄恩或切尔特南女子学院。
她的无名指上戴了一个男式图章戒指。
我在自己的桌边坐下,同她之间隔着那些日本绅士。
这时只听得她说,“所以,咱们完全可以下周就结婚。
”“是吗?”她的同伴显得有点心神恍惚。
他给他俩的杯子又斟上夏布利酒.说:“没错儿,不过我妈……”下面一段对话没有听清,因为最年长的那位日本绅士笑容满面地向前探了探身子,微微鞠了一躬,然后像鸟舍里发出的叽喳声一般说了一大段话,而其他人都满脸堆笑、点头哈腰地听着,于是我也情不自禁地注意起他来了。
姑娘的未婚夫长得跟她颇为相似。
我简直可以想象他们是两幅并排挂在白色护壁板上的袖珍肖像。
他真该在纳尔逊手下当一名海军军官;那年头,某种纤弱善感的特点是不妨碍升官晋级的。
姑娘说:“他们给我预支500镑,普及本的版权也卖出去了。
”这种刺耳的生意经使我吓了一跳;我感到震惊还因为她居然是我的同行。
她最多不过20岁,应该享受更好的生活。
他说:“可是我叔叔……”“你也知道你跟他处不好。
照我说的,咱们就可以自立了。
”“你倒是自立了,”他挺不情愿地说。
“做酒的生意对你实在并不合适,对不对?我跟出版商谈到你了,很有可能……你只消先看点书……”“我对书可是一窍不通啊。
”“一开头,我会帮你的。
”“我妈说,搞搞写作当然不无小补……”“500镑再加上普及本版权的一半收入,这可是大有所补了,”姑娘说。
“这种夏布利酒好喝吧?”“那还用说。
为恭维高歌-泛滥的奉承是如何削弱私人称赞价值的里查德.斯坦杰尔我理想的读者,由于像您这样获得了显而易见成就的人肯定已经不再为吹捧所左右,所以我就不以称赞您的智慧开始这篇随笔了。
像您这样具有强烈自信和敏锐洞察力的人需要的不再是别人的恭维,而是率真的坦率。
这并非我个人的想法,但是,亲爱的读者,我怀疑。
实际上,你越是自负,你就越可能被人恭维。
自信的人往往将得到的称赞认为是(他人)明智的判断,而不是讨好。
可是也许您,无私的读者,您却觉得您并没有得到应得的讨好。
这并不为怪,因为今天已到愈演愈烈危险地步的那种奉承,是对电影明星和名流们的荒唐的奉承。
诸如此类的大众奉承有着可观的级别夸大,有着一种名流的光环效应,结果是在不应该有赞扬的地方却充斥了整个社会范围互相吹捧。
如此这般的的大众奉承导致了私人称赞变得一文不值。
总体而言,我们已经变得更加小心谨慎地,更冷嘲热讽地对待(别人的)赞扬了。
任何人都不想看上去像一个一味讨好的谄媚者。
任何人不想看上去太热切。
表示极为赞赏的语言已经变得苍白无力,而且虚假了。
如果迈克·奥维兹都能算得上极具远见卓识,那么查尔斯·达尔文又该被称作什么呢?如果唐纳德·特奥普都能算得上极具魅力,那么马丁·路德金又该被称作什么呢?如果所有每一个当前受欢迎的女演员都能算得上聪颖出色,那么你那拼写测验的了88分的7岁的女儿又该被称作什么呢?恭维从来都不是献媚的想法。
根据米尔顿的话,撒旦完全是个大献媚者。
但丁让拍马屁的人堕入地狱,与暴君和凶手相邻的第8层地狱。
在阶层性的社会中,譬如在中世纪和文艺复兴的时代里,由于奉承是一种颠覆上神灵规定的社会的顺序的手段而被认为极端危险的。
如果你讨好国王以求他封你为贵族,那么你就是在不正当地玩弄当前的局面。
但是奉承甚至早在伊甸园之前就已经开始了。
黑猩猩象整天互相梳毛以此作为擢升的一个有效手段。
这种爱抚--flattery这个词的词根来自法语,其意思为"抚摸或爱抚"--并非口头的奉承。
Unit8LoveandFriendship课文翻译大学体验英语一[5篇材料]第一篇:Unit 8 Love and Friendship课文翻译大学体验英语一Unit 8 Love and Friendship Passage A Freshman Friendship Almost two years ago, I stood on a balcony, joined hands with my three most intimate friends and listened to one of them tell a story about four girls with different backgrounds and talents who left home and went to college at a mythical place called Happy Valley.After we left our friend's apartment that last night of our freshman year, we ended up on the lawn, playing frisbee at 3 a.m.and sitting on the dormitory steps talking for hours.Alisa, Karen, Gabrielle and I had spent that day together just being freshmen----going to the sandwich shop for the last lunch of the semester, trying on each other's clothes, watching movies and acting like we would never see each other again.Three Months is a Long TimeFor freshmen, and especially for us, saying goodbye at the end of the first year can feel like saying goodbye forever.Three months can seem like a long time when you are leaving friends and acquaintances whom you have only known for a year.Your freshman year moments are irreplaceable.My advice to any freshmen reading this is to cherish those moments.You may grow completely apart from the people you spent your first year with, or you may find yourself fortunately comparing them to siblings at the end of your junior year as I did.Even if you have almost forgotten your freshman year roommates two years later, and barely recognize them when you encounter them in front of the gymnasium, you can never replace that year and the brand-new feeling that your first year of college brings.A lot will change afteryour freshman year.You will meet new people and do new things.You will do a lot more growing up.At the beginning of our senior year, Karen took her hometown boyfriend Kevin on a tour of campus and downtown.“That's where we grew up,” she told him, motioning toward Atherton Hall, where the four of us spent our first two years at Penn State.We learned more outside the classroom than we learned inside it.That dorm is where we learned and discussed the lessons of our freshman and sophomore years.I think the principal lesson I learned was the definition of true friendship.And I have never had nor will ever have better teachers than Alisa, Karen and Gabrielle.That lesson can best be summarized by something Alisa and Karen told me when I was upset at the end of last semester and needed a shoulder to cry on.They said no matter how far we drift apart or who else we become friends with after college, we will always incline to recall each other first whenever we think of college.I couldn't agree more.The story Alisa told on that balcony is far from over.I sometimes wonder if the following is how it will end: “…and those four little girls grew up and realized their dreams.They found themselves all over the country, from farms, to cities, to the suburbs, doing everything they wanted to do-a computer technician, a physician, an attorney, and an architect –with the companions they wanted in husbands, children and pets.And occasionally they would make it back to reunions at that mythical valley and see their old friends, laughing about the good times.They had succeeded in forgetting any of the bad times.And they lived happily ever after.”A篇新生的友谊大约两年前,我与三个最亲密的朋友手拉手站在寝室的阳台上,听其中一个讲述有关四个女孩的故事。
Benjamin Stein weaves a tale to bring home to young Americans the need to change the way they think about education. Read it and see whether you think it holds any lessons for us as well.本杰明·斯坦编了一个故事,以使美国青年彻底认识他们必须改变对教育的态度。
读一读这个故事,看看你是否认为它对我们大家同样也有教育意义。
Fable of the Lazy TeenagerBenjamin Stein1 One day last fall, I ran out of file folders and went to the drugstore to buy more. I put a handful of folders on the counter and asked a teenage salesgirl how much they cost. "I don't know," she answered. "But it's 12 cents each."关于懒散少年的寓言故事本杰明·斯坦去年一个秋日,我文件夹用完了,便去杂货店买。
我拿了一大把文件夹搁在柜台上,问一个十几岁的售货员多少钱。
“不知道,”她回答说,“反正单价12美分。
”2 I counted the folders. "Twenty-three at 12 cents each, that makes $ 2.76 before tax,"I said.我数了数文件夹。
“二十三个,单价12美分,总共2.76美金,不含税,”我说。
3 "You did that in your head?" she asked in amazement. "How can you do that?"“你心算的?”她惊奇地问道,“你怎么会算出来的?”4 "It's magic," I said.“靠魔力,”我说。

英语泛读教程3第三版第八单元课文翻译假如给我三天光明原文:At times my heart cries out with longing to see all these things.If I can get so much pleasure from mere touch,how much more beauty must be revealed by sight.Yet,those who have eyes apparently see little.The panorama of colour and action which fills the world is taken for granted.It is human,perhaps,to appreciate little that which we have and to long for that which we have not,but it is a great pity that in the world of light the gift of sight is used only as a mere convenience rather than as a means of adding fullness to life.If I were the president of a university I should establish a compulsory course in“How to Use Your Eyes”.The professor would try to show his pupils how they could add joy to their lives by really seeing what passes unnoticed before them.He would try to awake their dormant and sluggish faculties.Suppose you set your mind to work on the problem of how you would use your own eyes if you had only three more days to see.If with the oncoming darkness of the third night you knew that the sun would never rise for you again,how would you spend thosethree precious intervening days?What would you most want to let your gaze rest upon?I,naturally,should want most to see the things which have become dear to me through my years of darkness.You,too,would want to let your eyes rest long on the things that have become dear to you so that you could take the memory of them with you into the night that loomed before you.I should want to see the people whose kindness and gentleness and companionship have made my life worth living.First I should like to gaze long upon the face of my dear teacher,Mrs.Anne Sullivan Macy,who came to me when I was a child and opened the outer world to me.I should want not merely to see the outline of her face,so that I could cherish it in my memory,but to study that face and find in it the living evidence of the sympathetic tenderness and patience with which she accomplished the difficult tasks of my education.I should like to see in her eyes that strength of character which has enabled her to stand firm in the face of difficulties,and that compassion for all humanity which she has revealed to me so often.I do not know what it is to see into the heart of a friend through that“window of the soul”,the eye.I can only“see”through my finger tips the outline of a face.I can detect laughter,sorrow,and many other obvious emotions.I know my friends from the feel of their faces.But I cannot really picture their personalities by touch.I know their personalities,of course,through other means,through the thoughts they express to me,through whatever of their actions are revealed to me.But I am denied that deeper understanding of them which I am sure would come through sight of them through watching their reactions to various expressed thoughts and circumstances,through noting the immediate and fleeting reactions of their eyes and countenance.How much easier,how much more satisfying it is for you who can see to grasp quickly the essential qualities of another person by watching the subtleties of expression,the quiver of a muscle,the flutter of a hand.But does it ever occur to you to use your sight to see into the inner nature of a friend or acquaintance?Do not most of you seeing people grasp casually the outward features of a face and let it go at that?Oh,the things that I should see if I had the power of sight for just three days!翻译:我的心时时在呼号,渴望能见到所有这一切。

My example involves an Englishman and a Zulu.While the cultural gap is clear, it is the linguistic factor that dominates this instance.2 As you may know, Zulu tongues have 39 words for “green,” while English has only one. (If we wish to modify the shade, we have to bring in another word, for example, bottle green, leaf green). I was interested in how the Zulus could build up 39 one-word concepts for green, and discussed this at length with a former Zulu Chief who had takena doctoral degree in philosophy at Oxford. He began by explaining why Zulus needed39 words for “green.” In the days before automo tive transport and national highways, the Zulu people would often make long treks across their savannah grasslands. There were no signposts or maps and lengthy journeys had to be described by those who had traveled the route before. The language adapted itself to the requirements of its speakers.3 English copes with concepts such as contract deadlines and stock futures (Zulu doesn’t), but our language is seen as poverty-stricken and inadequately descriptive by Africans and Amerindians whose languages abound in finely wrought, beautifully logical descriptions of nature,causation, repetition, duration, and result.4 “But give me some examples of di ff er ent green-words,”I persisted.5 My friend picked up a leaf. “What color is this?” he asked.6 “Green,” I replied.7 Th e sun was shining. He waited until a cloud intervened. “What color is the leaf now?” he asked.8 “Green,” I answered, already sensing my inadequacy.9 “It isn’t the same green, is it?”10 “No, it isn’t.”11 “We have a di ff erent word in Zulu.” He dipped the leaf in water and held it out again. “Has the color changed?”12 “Yes.”13 “In Zulu we have a word for ‘green shining wet.’ ”14 The sun came out again and I needed another word (leaf-green-wet but-with-sunshine-on-it!)15 My friend retreated 20 metres and showed me the leaf. “Has the color changed again?”16 “Yes,” I screamed.17 “We have another word,” he said with a smile.18 He went on to indicate how diff erent Zulu green s would deal with tree leaves, bush leaves, leaves vibrating in the wind, river greens, pool greens,tree trunk greens, crocodile greens … he got to 39 without even raising a sweat.19 It was evident that my Zulu friend and I saw the world through diff erent eyes. And yet it was not a question of eyes. However “international,”multicultural or all-embracing I wished to be, there was no way I could perceive or feel about nature the way he did, because I didn’t have the language to do it with. It was not just a matter of familiarizing myself with the cultural habits, preferences and taboos of his tribe or even adopting his religion and philosophies. I could onlyexperience reality as fully as he did by learning his language and escaping (in terms of descriptive ability) from the straitjacket of my own.20 Just as seeing with two eyes gives us stereoscopic vision, and a sense of depth, thinking in two different languages gives us added dimensions of reality. Finn-Swedes are a case in point.A striking thought is that while French (a language very similar to English) would give a Briton maybe an extra 10 percent of the observable universe, a “primitive” language widely diff erent from our own, with its other logic assumptions, might show us things we have never dreamed of!21 It is not difficult for us to comprehend (once we are awake to the language straitjacket phenomenon) that the Japanese, for example, with their reverse word order will organize their thoughts and priorities in a different manner from that of Europeans. But if we think more closely about the European scene, we discover that English, French and Spanish speakers use language and think in quite diff erent ways, and may seem at times to be on a common waveleng th when in fact they didn’t really know what the other has said or what they actually meant when they said it.参考译文不同的语言,不同的世界理查德·刘易斯两个有着不同背景的人对同一个基本概念的理解会大相径庭,我这里用英国人和祖鲁人来举例说明。
