大学英语自学教程上册课文翻译第一课 Text A「课文译文」怎样成为一名成功的语言学习者“学习一门语言很容易,即使小孩也能做得到。
”大多数正在学习第二语言的成年人会不同意这种说法。
对他们来说,学习一门语言是非常困难的事情。
他们需要数百小时的学习与练习,即使这样也不能保证每个成年语言学习者都能学好。
语言学习不同于其他学习。
许多人很聪明,在自己的领域很成功,但他们发现很难学好一门语言。
相反,一些人学习语言很成功,但却发现很难在其他领域有所成就。
语言教师常常向语言学习者提出建议:“要用新的语言尽量多阅读”,“每天练习说这种语言”,“与说这种语言的人住在一起”,“不要翻译——尽量用这种新的语言去思考”,“要像孩子学语言一样去学习新语言”,“放松地去学习语言。
”然而,成功的语言学习者是怎样做的呢语言学习研究表明,成功的语言学习者在许多方面都有相似之处。
首先,成功的语言学习者独立学习。
他们不依赖书本和老师,而且能找到自己学习语言的方法。
他们不是等待老师来解释,而是自己尽力去找到语言的句式和规则。
他们寻找线索并由自己得出结论,从而做出正确的猜测。
如果猜错,他们就再猜一遍。
他们都努力从错误中学习。
成功的语言学习是一种主动的学习。
因此,成功的语言学习者不是坐等时机而是主动寻找机会来使用语言。
他们找到(说)这种语言的人进行练习,出错时请这些人纠正。
他们不失时机地进行交流,不怕重复所听到的话,也不怕说出离奇的话,他们不在乎出错,并乐于反复尝试。
当交流困难时,他们可以接受不确切或不完整的信息。
对他们来说,更重要的是学习用这种语言思考,而不是知道每个词的意思。
最后,成功的语言学习者学习目的明确。
他们想学习一门语言是因为他们对这门语言以及说这种语言的人感兴趣。
他们有必要学习这门语言去和那些人交流并向他们学习。
他们发现经常练习使用这种语言很容易,因为他们想利用这种语言来学习。
你是什么样的语言学习者如果你是一位成功的语言学习者,那么你大概一直在独立地,主动地,目的明确地学习。

Translation
Section B (P244)
A smile costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich that they can get along without it, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits. It creates happiness in the home, fosters goodwill in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged and sunshine to the sad. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away. And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying some of our salespeople should be too tired to give you a smile, may we ask you to leave one of yours? For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to give!

在火车上，我总是选择远离人群的座位以便我能平静地读报纸。
工作中，我要无休止地应对同事、供应商提出的各种问题，电话总是响个不停，还有那些令人恐惧的会议，所以我最不想做的事就是和坐在身边的陌生人闲聊。
I don't know why but for some reason when I got on the train today it was unusually full, something I don't recall ever happening in the past. With hesitation I sat down in the only seat available beside a middle-aged man that had his head down and seemed to be lost in his thoughts. I was glad that he didn't notice when I sat next to him as he just continued to lookdown towards the floor.那天我搭乘火车时，不知道出于什么原因火车上异常拥挤，这是过去不曾发生过的。

Apparently he had some very hurtful personal problems that were so overwhelming that he was planning to take his life that day. In his letter he went on to explain that he was a religious person and in desperation screamed out to God that if God really cared about him he would send someone to prevent him from taking his life. In his eyes I was that someone, that Angel sent by God.

My day started just like all the other days for the past 15 years where I get up, make some coffee, shower, get dressed and leave for the train station at precisely 7:35 A.M. to arrive at work by 8:30. While on the train I would always choose a seat away from the crowd so I can read the newspaper in peace and quiet. At work I am always being bombardedwith questions from coworkers, suppliers, telephone and then those dreaded meetings, so the last thing I need is some stranger to sit beside me and make small talk.
As you probably guessed I eventually broke down and came up with an excuse to ask him a question. When he raised his d and turned his eyes towards me I could see that he must have been really upset as he had red eyes and still had some tears rolling down the side of his face despite his feeble attempt to wipe them away. I can't describe the sadness I felt seeing someone in so much pain.
1 At a dinner party in New York, one of the guests, a woman who had inherited money, was eager to make a pleasing impression on everyone. She had squandered a modest fortune on sables, diamonds and pearls. But she hadn't done anything whatsoever about her face.（承上启下句）It radiated sourness and selfishness. She didn't realize what everyone knows: namely, the expression one wears on one's face is far more important than the clothes one wears on one's back.

几周过去了，一天我吃完午饭回来，发现办公桌上放着一个信封，上面没有 写收信人的名字，只写着“天使”两个字。我的接待员在上面附了一张纸条， 说是一位先生送来的，他不知道我的名字，但是详细地描述了我的特征，接 待员知道说的是我。读着信封里的便条，我激动得不能自已。这封信就是那 天我在火车上遇到的那个人写来的，再次向我表达谢意，感谢我那天跟他聊 天，挽救了他的生命。
你可能也猜出来了，我最后失败了，想出了一个借口，向他提了一个问题。 他抬起头来，转身冲着我，看得出他的确很伤心，眼睛红红的，尽管他极力 擦拭，还是能看到几滴眼泪顺着面颊流下来了。看到一个人这么痛苦，我当 时简直无法形容自己是多么的伤心。
Text A Your Inner Voice
We talked for about 20 minutes and in the end he seemed to be doing better. As we were leaving the train he thanked me profusely for being an angel by taking the time to talk. I never did find out what was making his heart so heavy with pain but was glad I listened to the voice that day.
我自己不信基督教，不知道那个声音到底是什么，能够让我冒险跟陌生人聊 天，但是我的确知道那样做会对一个人的生命产生影响的。因此，下次你感 到不知什么原因，有人鼓励你去跟一个朋友、邻居，甚至是陌生人聊天，请 记住我的故事。如果你倾听了自己的心声，也许会对一个人的生命产生影响 的。
Text B Make a Good First Impression
我们聊了大约20分钟，最后他似乎感觉好多了。我们要分手的时候，他连声 向我道谢，说我花时间跟他聊天，简直是一位天使。我到最后都没能知道为 什么他那么伤心，但是很高兴那天我倾听了自己内心的呼唤。
Text A Your Inner Voice
Several weeks had passed when I noticed an envelope on my desk after returning from lunch. It was not addressed to anyone and only had the word angel written on it. My receptionist attached a note saying a gentleman dropped it off saying he did not know my name but had described me well enough that the receptionist knew it was for me. When I read the note inside the envelope I was so filled with emotions that I couldn't contain myself. It was a letter from the man I met on the train thanking me again for talking to him and saving his life that day.（承上句）
很明显，那天他遇到了很伤心的问题，实在是无计可施了，打算自杀。在信 里，他还解释说自己是个基督教徒，在绝望之际，向上帝高喊，如果上帝真 的关心他，就会派人来阻止他自杀的。在他眼里，我就是上帝派来解救他的 天使。
Text A Your Inner Voice
Not being a religious person myself I don't know what that voice was that made me take a chance and talk to a stranger but I do know that it made a difference in someone's life that day. So the next time you feel prompted for no apparent reason to talk to a friend, relative, neighbor or even a complete stranger please remember my story, you just may make a difference in someone's life when you listen to your inner voice.
