Unit 3Text A〔Chinese〕1994年元旦前夕，我生下一名女婴并建立了一项新的业务。
太不切实际了，是的，但它是我不得不做的。
决心要做一个居家照顾孩子的妈妈，我开始在家靠从事写广告和自由撰稿谋生。
这特别具有挑战性，因为我是一无父母的、又没有人帮助的单亲妈妈。
我必须想出办法有一个环境既能抚养孩子维持生计。
多亏了互联网！〔Chinese〕花了一小笔钱买了一个显示器、鼠标和电话后，我就连接并拨号上网了。
一买了电脑，我就聘请技术人员为我设置了万维网。
一点击鼠标我就完全进入了网络空间。
我启程了！我真是欣喜若狂。
我有了电子邮件，准备靠它带来客户。
我一下子把传真机扔出滑动玻璃门，烧掉了我的纸质活动记载。
我该马上行动了，是的，我也这样做了。
我很快建立了计算机文档，一切开始发生了。
〔Chinese〕有了无线电话耳机的连接，我抱着宝宝从一个房间到另一个房间，一边换脏尿布一边和客户交谈。
当女儿睡觉的时候，我就在网上工作。
有时候是在“奥普拉”节目的伴随中，有时是午夜过后。
在互联网上工作使得我有了这种宝贵的灵活性，我要是从事其他工作就根本不可能有这种灵活性了。
〔Chinese〕互联网帮我挖掘新的业务。
我向行业杂志和全国性杂志的编辑写了查询信，很快就收到了答复和写作任务，并没有受到时间的拖延。
我不再需要查看信箱找拒绝信或者签好的合同。
所有这些文件通过互联网电子邮件就能快速获得。
〔Chinese〕不久，我的想法就在键盘上飞越，新闻稿从指尖流出。
我是一个网络冲浪妈妈，没有什么会使我慢下来。
每套宣传材料完成后，所有的简介都写好后，我会直接用电子邮件把我的资料发给世界各地的不同编辑。
我不必再站在麦克斯办公用品公司前排队复印或等传真，我所需要的每样东西都整齐地放进我的家庭办公电脑里了〔Chinese〕即时通讯帮助我招揽了更多的业务。
我感觉到了高科技世界激情奔放。
多亏了万维网，我不再感到孤单。
我能够连接上新闻团体和各种专业人士，他们知道我在哪里以及想去哪里。

Unit1 TextA温斯顿·丘吉尔——他的另一种生活玛丽·索姆斯我的父亲温斯顿·丘吉尔是在40多岁时迷上绘画的，当时他正身处逆境。
1915年，作为海军大臣，他深深地卷入了达达尼尔海峡的一场战役。
原本那次战役是能够缩短一场血腥的世界大战的进程的，但它却失败了，造成了惨重的人员伤亡，为此丘吉尔作为公务员和个人都付出了代价：他被革除了海军部的职务，失去了显赫的政治地位。
“我本以为他会因忧伤而死的。
”他的妻子克莱门泰因说。
被这一大不幸压垮的他同家人一起退隐到萨里郡的一个乡间居处——耘锄农场。
在那儿，正如丘吉尔日后所回忆的，“绘画女神拯救了我！”一天他正在花园里漫步，正巧碰上他的弟妹在用水彩画素描。
他观看了她几分钟，然后借过她的画笔，试了一下身手——于是缪斯女神施展了她的魔法。
自那天以后，温斯顿便爱上了绘画。
任何能让陷入忧思的温斯顿分心的事情都让克莱门泰因高兴。
于是，她赶紧去买来她所能找到的各种颜料和画具。
水彩颜料、油画颜料、纸张、帆布画布——很快耘锄农场里便堆满了一个画家可能想要或需要的各种东西。
画油画最终成了温斯顿的一大爱好——但是最初几步却出奇的艰难。
凝视着自己的第一块空白画布，他异乎寻常地紧张。
他日后回忆道：“我迟疑不决地选了一管蓝色颜料，然后小心翼翼地画了一笔，就像雪白的田野上的一粒蚕豆那么大。
就在这时，我听到车道上传来汽车的声音，于是惊恐地丢下画笔。
当我看清从汽车里走出来的人时，更是惊慌失措。
来者正是住在附近的著名画家约翰·莱佛利爵士的妻子。
“‘在画画呢！’她大声说道。
‘真有趣。
可你还在等什么呢？把画笔给我——大的那支。
’她立即全神贯注地投入作画，还没等我缓过神来，她已经挥笔泼墨在惊恐不已的画布上画下了有力的几道蓝色。
谁都看得出画布无法回击。
我不再迟疑。
我抓起那支最大的画笔，迅猛异常地向我可怜的牺牲品扑了过去。
自那以后，我再也不曾害怕过画布。
”后来指导丘吉尔画画的莱佛利曾经说起过他这位不同寻常的学生的艺术才能：“如果他当初选择的是绘画而不是政治，他定会成为一位驾驭画笔的大师。
Unit 1“Very hesitantly I selected a tube of blue paint,and with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean on the snow-white field.at that moment I heard the sound of a motorcar in the drive and threw down my brush in a panic. I was even more alarmed when I saw who stepped from the car,the wife of Sir John Lavery,the celebrated painter who lived nearby.”“Painting!’she declared.’what fun.But what are you waiting for?’Let me have the brush-the big one.’She plunged into the paints and before I knew it,she had swept several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely terrified canvas.Anyone could see it could not hit back.I hesitated no more.I seized the largest brush and fell upon my wretched victim with wild fury.I have never felt any fear of a canvas since.”Unit 2This belief in hard work is the first of three main factors contributing to Asian students’outstanding performance.It springs from Asians’common heritage of Confucianism, the philosophy of the 5th-century-BC Chinese sage whose teachings have had a profound influence on Chinese society.One of Confucius’s primary teachings is that through effort,people can perfect themselves.Confucianism provides another important ingredient in the Asians’success as well.In Confucian philosophy,the family plays a central role-an orientation that leads people to work for the honor of the family,not just for themselves.One can never repay one’s parents,and there’s a sense of obligation or even guilt that is as strong a force among Asians as Protestant philosophy is among those in the West.Unit 3The first cultural translator I ever met was an installation engineer,George by name,who worked for an American company where I was the director of international operations.The company had just started a joint venture with a Japanese firm,and the American management needed someone to train the Japanese employees in its unique technology.George’s solid understanding of the equipment,its installation and use made him the best-qualified employee for the job,so everyone was happy when George accepted a two-year contract for temporary transfer to Japan.From the start,George was well accepted by all the Japanese employees.Japanese managers often distrust anyone sent to represent US owners,but George was so naturally nonassertive that no one could see him as a threat to their careers.So they felt comfortable asking his advise on a wide range of matters,including the odd behavior of their partners across the ocean.Engineers throughout the company appreciated George’s expertise and his friendly and capable help,and they got into the habit of turning to him whenever they had a problem-any problem.And the secretaries in the office were eager to help this nice bachelor learn Japanese.Unit 4Failure is never pleasant.It hurts adults and children alike.But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it.Step one is to ask“Why did I fail?”Resist the natural impulse to blame someone else.Ask yourself what you did wrong,how you can improve.If someone else can help,don’t be shy about inquiring.Success,which encourages repetition of old behavior,is not nearly as good a teacher as failure.You can learn from a disastrous party how to give a good one,from an ill-chosen first house what to look for in a second.Even a failure that seems total can prompt fresh thinking,a change of direction.Unit 8When you’re eating among other people,you don’t raise your voice;it’s just one example of the unwritten rules we live by.When you consider it,you recognize that those rules probably govern our lives on a more absolute basis than the ones you could find if you looked in the law books.The customs that govern us are what make a civilization.There would be chaos without them,and yet it’s not at all clear why-even in our disintegrating society-we obey them.How many times have you stopped at a red light late at night?You can see in all directions;there’s no one else around-no headlights,no police cruise idling behind you.You’re tired and in a hurry.But you wait for the light to change.Is it for safety’s sake?No;you can see that there would be no accident if you drove on.Is it to avoid getting arrested?No;you are alone;there’s no one to catch you.Still,you sit and wait.。
