全新版21世纪大学英语综合教程4(第三版)课后翻译-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company One1Unit 1这是西雅图海边阳光明媚、赤日炎炎的一天，穿越海湾能一眼望见远处的岛屿，其自然美景没有受到任何破坏。

人们躺在一片草坪上看书或和恋人相依，一阵充满活力的无伴奏的歌声从草坪的另一端传了过来。

原来是一家咖啡馆外面有4位男子正在唱着一首关于丘比特的情歌，每个人都有着不同的音域。

围了几圈的人群正摇摆着身体合着节奏拍手。

这家咖啡馆的星巴克徽标让我觉得有一点过时，直到有人提到这是世界上第一家开张的星巴克时我才恍然大悟。

我是因为最近的一次调查来到西雅图的。

这项调查是由位于伦敦的经济运转情况中心发起的，旨在了解在世界不同的地方发财致富究竟有多么容易或多么困难——如果不是发财致富，至少也是摆脱贫困。

Unit 2美国满足了我学业深造和职场历练的雄心。

我来的时候差不多是高中学历，而10年后，我拥有了研究生学位，也有了比较成功的职业生涯。

然而，前进的每一步都是通过令人精疲力竭的奋斗取得的。

我的大学学费一部分是通过打多份报酬极低的零工挣来的。

毕业以后，我很幸运地找到一份工作。

可是，适应企业文化需要付出另一种代价。

最初，我需要付出双倍的努力才跟得上。

渐渐地，我意识到如果缺乏自信，别人就不把你当回事儿，于是便学着装出一副自信满满的样子。

迫于裁员潮的威慑，我利用业余时间读了研究生，因为那是我所知道的能在保障工作方面取得优势的唯一办法。

当我有资格申请公民身份时，又花了一大笔律师费，并且忍受了充满压力的数年时光，努力应对种种纷繁复杂的情况以获得在美的永久居住权。

Unit 4我想，令人目眩神速的初恋也许会融入血液中，但经得起考验的爱则永驻心头。

从这个意义上说，爱比躯体更具活力。

爱使我们变得完整，赋予我们平安度过一生所需的一切。

我可以就这样数个小时一直端详着我的妻子。

海浪不断迸溅开来，冲击着她光光的脚丫。

这个世界有时因为伤害和痛苦而大煞风景，我却深深地感恩升起的旭日为我照亮了这样的真爱。

1.由于一次裁员行动和一次重大的银行合并，我一贯有条不紊的生活变得充满了变化。

As a result of a downsizing initiative and a major bank merger, my usually well-ordered life became fraught with changes.2.尽管我生性沉默寡言，但我充分利用了课堂上做口头陈述的机会，这使我不久就信心倍增。

Although I am a rather reticent individual by nature, I made the most of the oral presentations in class. And soon my confidence level soared.3.这位年轻人放弃了稳定的未来，跳出自己的舒适圈，重返激烈的竞争，这使他的亲友们都惊叹不已。

Much to the amazement of his friends and relatives, the young man gave up his secure future, stepped out his comfort zone and rejoined the “rat race.”4.无论在我们的人生道路上遇到什么坎坷，拥有积极的态度才能为未来打开空间。

No matter what life throws our way, having a positive attitude makes room for the future. 5.当然，事业有成是我渴望实现的一个个人目标，但为了物质的东西和个人的荣誉而工作却从来不是我最优先考虑的东西。

Of course, having a fulfilling career is a personal goal I long to achieve. However, working towards materialistic things and personal glorification has never been my first priority.6.失去了工作以后，他重回大学，并最终获得了一份毕业证书。

夏日的一天，父亲让我去买些铁丝网和栅栏，用来围畜棚，把牛圈起来。

那时我16岁，最喜欢开上货车，沿着老磨坊路到城里去。

研磨机轮子上的水花在阳光下喷洒，在河道上空形成一道彩虹。

我常在半路上把车停下来，在河里洗个澡，凉快一会，享受一下天然空调。

太阳火辣辣的，不用毛巾擦，等我爬上岸边的土坡，穿过路边的壕沟，到达货车时，身上已经都干了。

快进城时，有一段沿着海滩的路，我会在那儿拣贝壳，拣海藻，头顶就是正从轮船上卸货的巨大的起重机。

但是，这次却有所不同。

父亲告诉我，我得向店里要求赊账。

那是1976年，种族主义的丑陋阴影仍然是生活的现实。

我曾目睹我的朋友要求赊账，然后就低着头站在那里，等着店主查询他“配不配赊账”。

许多店员只要一看见年轻的黑人走进商店，就盯着他们，疑心他们是小偷。

我们家人诚实正派，有债必还。

但在庄稼收割之前，所有的钱都已经花光了。

银行里也没有新的存款，现金不够。

在戴维斯兄弟杂货店，巴克·戴维斯站在收银机后面，正和一个中年农夫说着话。

巴克个子高高的，穿着一件红色的狩猎衬衫，显得饱经风霜。

我冲他点了点头，经过他的身边，向五金柜台走去，拿了一盒钉子，一卷用于捆扎的铁丝网和栅栏。

我把要买的东西拖到柜台前，把钉子放进秤盘，小心翼翼地说道：“我要赊账。

”一边抬起胳膊去擦额头上紧张的汗珠。

那个农夫像寻开心般怀疑地看着我，但是巴克的脸色却没有变。

他随和地说道：“当然可以，你老爹总能有借有还，”一边伸手去拿记账的账本。

我舒了一口气。

他转过头，对那个农夫说：“这是詹姆士·威廉的儿子。

像詹姆士·威廉这样讲信用的人是很少的。

”那个农夫友善地点了点头。

我的心里顿时充满了自豪。

“詹姆士·威廉的儿子”，这句话打开了通往成年人的尊敬和信任的大门。

当我把沉重的货物拉进货车车厢时，觉得轻而易举，感到比早上离开农庄时更有劲了。

我发现，一个好名声所带来的友好是一笔无价之宝。

人人都知道，威廉家的人是什么样的：是诚实守信的体面人，自尊自重，不干坏事。
