新视野大学英语读写教程第二版第二册课文翻译 Unit1 Passage A Time-Conscious Americans翻译: 注重时间的美国人美国人认为没有人能停止不前。
如果你不求进取,你就会落伍。
这种态度造就了一个投身于研究、实验和探索的民族。
时间是美国人注意节约的两个要素之一,另一要素是劳力。
人们一直说:“只有时间才能支配我们。
”人们似乎把时间当作一个差不多是实实在在的东西来对待。
我们安排时间、节约时间、浪费时间、挤抢时间、消磨时间、缩减时间、对时间的利用作出解释;我们还要因付出时间而收取费用。
时间是一种宝贵的资源,许多人都深感人生的短暂。
时光一去不复返。
我们应当让每一分钟都过得有意义。
外国人对美国的第一印象很可能是:每个人都匆匆忙忙——常常处于压力之下。
城里人看上去总是在匆匆地赶往他们要去的地方,在商店里他们焦躁不安地指望店员能马上来为他们服务,或者为了赶快买完东西,用肘来推搡他人。
白天吃饭时人们也都匆匆忙忙,这部分地反映出这个国家的生活节奏。
人们认为工作时间是宝贵的。
在公共用餐场所,人们都等着别人尽快吃完,以便他们也能及时用餐,你还会发现司机开车很鲁莽,人们推搡着在你身边过去。
你会怀念微笑、简短的交谈以及与陌生人的随意闲聊。
不要觉得这是针对你个人的,这是因为人们都非常珍惜时间,而且也不喜欢他人“浪费”时间到不恰当的地步。
许多刚到美国的人会怀念诸如商务拜访等场合开始时的寒暄。
他们也会怀念那种一边喝茶或喝咖啡一边进行的礼节性交流,这也许是他们自己国家的一种习俗。
他们也许还会怀念在饭店或咖啡馆里谈生意时的那种轻松悠闲的交谈。
一般说来,美国人是不会在如此轻松的环境里通过长时间的闲聊来评价他们的客人的,更不用说会在增进相互间信任的过程中带他们出去吃饭,或带他们去打高尔夫球。
既然我们通常是通过工作而不是社交来评估和了解他人,我们就开门见山地谈正事。
因此,时间老是在我们心中滴滴答答地响着。
因此,我们千方百计地节约时间。
Learning the Olympic Standard for Love学习奥林匹克爱的标准Nikolai Petrovich Anikin was not half as intimidating as I had imagined he would be. No, this surely was not the ex-Soviet coach my father had shipped me out to meet.尼克莱·彼得罗维奇·安尼金一点都不像我想象的那么吓人。
不,他不可能是我父亲特地送我来见的那位前苏联教练。
But Nikolai he was, Petrovich and all. He invited me inside and sat down on the couch, patting the blanket next to him to get me to sit next to him. I was so nervous in his presence 可他的确是尼克莱·彼得罗维奇·安尼金本人。
他请我进门,在沙发上坐下,又拍了拍身边的垫子,让我坐在他旁边。
在他面前,我真的很紧张。
"You are young," he began in his Russian-style English. "If you like to try for Olympic Games, I guess you will be able to do this. NaganoOlympics too soon for you, but for 2002 in Salt Lake City, you could be ready." “你还年轻,”他的英语带着俄语口音:“如果你愿意试着向奥林匹克运动会进军,我想你能行。
