Unit 4Text A|工作、劳动和玩耍Work, Labor, and Play威斯坦·H·奥登PrefaceWe go to work every day and we think we are workers. However, after reading Auden's discussion about work, labor, and play, the majority of us may find that we are no longer "workers". What are we then?就我所知,汉娜·阿伦特小姐是界定工作和劳动之间本质区别的第一人。
一个人要想快乐,第一要有自由感,第二要确信自己有价值。
如果社会迫使一个人去做他自己不喜欢的事,或者说,他所喜欢做的事被社会忽视,看作没有价值或不重要,那他就不会真正快乐。
在一个严格意义上已废除奴隶制的社会里,一个人做的事情是否具有社会价值取决于他是否为完成此项工作得到了报酬。
然而,今天的劳动者可以被称为名副其实的工资奴隶。
如果社会给一个人提供一份他本人不感兴趣的工作,他出于养家糊口的需要不得已才从事这项工作,那这个人就是一个劳动者。
So far as I know, Miss Hannah Arendt was the first person to define the essential difference between work and labor. To be happy, a man must feel, firstly, free and, secondly, important. He cannot be really happy if he is compelled by society to do what he does not enjoy doing, or if what he enjoys doing is ignored by society as of no value or importance. In a society where slavery in the strict sense has been abolished , whether what a man does has social value depends on whether he is paid money to do it, but a laborer today can rightly be called a wage slave. A man is a laborer if the job society offers him is of no interest to himself but he is compelled to take it by the necessity of earning a living and supporting his family.与劳动相对的是玩耍。
《给大学新生的五条建议》恭喜!你刻苦用功之后终于上了大学,你父母很是为你自豪……同时也如释重负吧,我想。
接下去呢?要说开阔眼界,大学是最好的地方;要说交朋结友、刻苦用功、体育运动、热恋失恋、了解这个伟大而广阔的世界,大学是最好的时期。
但面临这么多选择,有时你无所适从,这是不是有些出人意料?回首我的大学生涯,我真希望自己当初知道:如何安排时间终于,你上高中时就期待的自由到来了!但你有了自由之后准备怎么办呢?看看你的讲座和作业时间表,写下来你需要多少时间。
然后计算一下一天还剩多少属于你自己的时间,你可以利用这些时间尝试一切可以尝试的东西。
我可以向你保证,你第一次计算时间的时候,一定会算错。
希望你的教授不会介意!但下一次,你就会弄对了。
你是聪明人,不然根本就不能上这儿来。
如何交友你在大学交的朋友很可能会是你终身的朋友。
所以,我为何第一个学期结交很多朋友,再花五个学期和他们断交呢?因为我缺乏信心,怕得不到爱。
我还觉得不够格——每个人似乎都比我聪明!其实,在大学里过得真的很惨是不那么容易的,而比我聪明的人也不是那么多,我当时要是知道这些就好了!我敢打赌,你一定会交到朋友。
交不到朋友简直是不可能的。
(不过你得注意一下个人卫生,你知道我指的是什么。
)如何保持充足的睡眠没有人会告诉你该上床睡觉了!你愿意的话,可以熬到后半夜!不过等一下。
我真希望我当时记得:我需要的睡眠量和高中时候是一样的。
把握好每天的节奏。
如果你住在校外,这节奏也许得从坐地铁开始,然后就是你的第一堂讲座课或讨论课。
其中还包括在图书馆学习的时间,也应包括一些体育活动在内。
而且你也要吃饭、和朋友聊天、看电影,甚至抽一些时间安静独处。
但是,在此之后,休息是非常重要的!这是人类的基本需求,所以不要忽视。
哪怕你睡觉只是因为妈妈擅长发现你熬夜或逃课。
如何规划未来在中学的时候,我对自己的事业有很多规划。
但实际上,我的规划多年来是不断变化的。
非常坦诚地说,我是直到快30岁的时候,才最终找到了我人生的真正道路。
新视界大学英语综合教程第七单元课文翻译及练习答案Active Reading坐在扶手椅上的旅行者乔治独自一人住在伦敦南部的一套公寓里。
他选择一个人生活,因为他感到无法忍受世人的无知和周围环境的丑陋。
众所周知,今天的伦敦已不再是一个美丽的城市,气候也并不宜人。
对于乔治来说,这个城市就像一个过于熟稔的老太婆,只有从适当的角度,他才能想起她当年的美貌,但最近他已经开始厌烦了。
他的生活很简朴,经济状况也还可以。
他可以穿着睡袍,终日坐在古老而舒适的扶手椅里阅读文学名著。
尽管他生性愤世嫉俗、悲观厌世,但却尤其喜欢阅读经典游记,所以,即便他坐在宽大、温暖的扶手椅里,也可以神游到天涯海角。
一天早上,他翻看着马塞尔·帕尼奥尔写的一本书。
书中帕尼奥尔对法国南部普罗旺斯地区的描述已经打动了好几代人。
普罗旺斯自然环境引人入胜,它背靠阿尔卑斯山低伏的山峦,面朝地中海湛蓝的海水,有着悠久的农耕和民间手工艺传统。
在帕尼奥尔看来,普罗旺斯富有乡村特色,比较保守,当地人天生不信任陌生人。
但是,乔治也通过其他书得知,普罗旺斯是一个对有钱人和艺术家都很有吸引力的地方。
它是画家之乡,毕加索在此居住过;也是作家之乡,欧内斯特·海明威在此居住过;还是演员之乡,碧姬·巴铎也在此居住过。
圣特鲁佩斯的海滩、戛纳的电影节、尼斯的餐馆和酒店,这些都给普罗旺斯增添了令人难以想象的魅力。
乔治越往下读,就越想亲眼去看一看普罗旺斯。
他无法按捺自己的好奇心,于是穿戴整齐去了一家旅行社。
经过一番仓促的谈论,他得知自己只消到火车站,就可以乘火车直达普罗旺斯的中心城市阿维尼翁。
令他万分惊奇的是,这趟激起他无尽遐想、色彩缤纷、会令他终身难忘的旅行,只要坐六个小时的火车,就能轻而易举地实现。
于是,他直奔车站,买了张票,订了座位。
乔治到火车站的时间很早,离开车还有一段时间。
车站旁边有一家法国餐馆,为顾客提供各种具有地中海风情的食物:从市场现买回的鲜鱼、奶酪、葡萄酒,还有吸收了大量阳光、色彩鲜艳的水果和蔬菜。

Straigh t-A student s, in this respect, can be of great help by sharing their secrets in achievi ng academi c excelle nce. Read the followi ng text to find out what some of these secrets are.Secrets of Straigh t-A Student s1 A profess or of educati on who has conduct ed major studies of super-achievi ng student s reveale d that top gradesdo not alwaysgo to the brighte st student s. Accordi ng to him, other educati on experts and top student s themsel ves, it is far more importa nt for a student to know how to make the most of his or her innateabiliti es.2 The student s at the top of the c lass attainacademi c excelle nce by masteri ng a few basic princip les that otherscan easilylearn.To begin with, top student s know how to set their priorit ies right. Study time is never comprom ised for phone calls, televis ion program mes or snacks.In other words, it is alwaysplac edabove recreat ion. In additio n, top student s make a point of studyin g anywher e or everywh ere. A top student who is also a top athlete memoris es biology terms as he works out every day. Another student learnsa new word every morning while brushin g his teeth. Among all the student s intervi ewed, every one agreedthat study times are strictl y a matterof persona l prefere nce. Some thriveat night when all is silent. Otherspreferto study as soon as they come home from schoolwhen the lessons are fresh in their minds. However, all agreedthat consist ency is a main factorif one is to perform well at all times.3 A student must also learn to be organis ed. For example, a top student who is activel y involve d in his schoolband, track and field, rugby associa tion and debateteam disclos ed that he keeps his thingsintheir properplacesbecause he simplycannotaffordtime-wasting searche s. Another student immedia tely files theday’snotesincolour-coded folders so that they are availab le for reviewnearing examina tion time. Another techniq ue advocat ed by top student s is to read effecti vely. This include s speed-reading, improvi ngone’smemoryor retenti on ability, and activel y askingquestio ns that will lead to a full underst anding of the author’smessage.4 It is also importa nt for student s to know how to schedul e their time. They must know how to pace each assignm ent or project accordi ng to their daily timetab le and work ability so that they might not be overwhe lmed by the tasks at hand. Being able to set timetab les not only allowsstudent s more time to reviewand polishtheir work, it also prevent s them from procras tinati ng. Top student s believe that a secretof their success is the takingdown of good notes duringlessons and using them for revisio n. One student reveale d that she writesnotes from the text on one side of her noteboo k and those from her teacher s’lecture s on the other side. This allowsher to reviewboth aspects of each lessonat once. The student also reveale d that instead of wasting time whisper ing to friends and getting ready to rush out of the class just beforethe bell rings, she uses those few minutes to jot down a two or three-sentenc e summary of the lesson’sprincip al points. She then scans the notes to refresh her memorybeforethe nextday’sc lass.5 Another winning formula which teacher s promote lies in a student’sability to hand in neat work. Accordi ng to one profess or, the student who turns in neat work is already on the way to scoring an A. In the classro om context, it is equally importa nt for student s to speak up and ask questio ns. This is perhaps the best way for a student to c larify any doubts.Classro om partici pation also demonst ratesa student’sintelle ctualcuriosi ty. As a student concise ly puts it, ―Bettergradescome from betterunderst anding.‖6 The value of studyin g togethe r was demonst ratedin an experim ent conduct ed at one top univers ity. The study reveale d that student s who discuss ed homewor k and problem s togethe r, tried differe nt approac hes and explain ed their solutio ns to one another scoredhigherthan those who laboure d on their own. The experim ent also illumin ated the value of hypothe ticaltests conduct ed among the student s and on their own. This means that student s frame tentati ve test questio ns based on their notes and give each other or themsel ves written examina tionsthe day beforea test. Experts confirm ed that student s who devisepossibl e test questio ns often find many of the same questio ns duringthe real examina tion and thus score higher.7 Another techniq ue employe d by top student s is to do more than the assigne d homewor k. A student reveale d that if her teacher gives five problem s, she will underta ke ten. In the student’swords, ―Partoflearnin g is practis ing. The more you practis e,themoreyoulearn.‖Lastbutnotleast,al l experts and top student s agree that the most importa nt ―secret‖ of super-achieve rs lies in the crucial contrib utionby parents. From infancy, super-achieve rs were taughtthe importa nce of learnin g by their parents. The latterset high standar ds for their childre n and held them to those standar ds. They encoura ged their childre n in their studies but did not underta ke the work for them. Instead of pressur ing their childre n, these parents were alwaysloving, gentleand took pains to explain and motivat e.

Unit Seven Christmas SpiritText A水手的圣诞礼物威廉· J ·莱德勒去年圣诞期间,我、妻子和三个儿子在法国,从巴黎前往尼斯。
一连五天都很倒霉,没有一件事顺心。
入住的旅馆尽是些"宰客的黑店",租用的汽车也坏了,一家人挤在车上个个显得烦躁不安。
圣诞节前夜,我们住进了尼斯一家邋遢的旅店,心里没有半点圣诞感觉。
我们外出就餐时,天正下着雨,天气寒冷。
我们找到了一家小餐馆,这小店看着很乏味,只是随便装饰了一下来应节。
餐馆散发着一股油腻的味道。
里面只有五张桌子坐了人:两对德国夫妇,两户法国家庭和一名独自用餐的美国水手。
在餐厅的一个角落里,钢琴师在无精打采地弹奏着圣诞乐曲。
我情绪低落,加之疲惫不堪,执意不愿离开这儿去找别的餐馆了。
我环顾四周,只见顾客们都默默地在吃着饭,唯一一个显得开心的是那位美国水手。
他一边吃着,一边写信,脸上闪耀着淡淡的微笑。
妻子用法语点了菜,服务员给我们端来的却是别的东西。
我骂妻子愚蠢,她哭了起来。
孩子们护着妈妈,我的情绪变得更加糟糕。
继而,坐在我们左侧餐桌上的那位法国父亲因为一点小事打了其中一个孩子一记耳光,小男孩大哭起来。
我们的右边,那个德国妇女开始喋喋不休地数落她的丈夫。
一阵令人不快的寒风吹了进来。
从前门进来一个卖花的法国老太太。
她穿着一件湿淋淋的破旧大衣,穿一双水淋淋的旧鞋拖着腿进来。
她提着花篮,沿桌叫卖。
“买花吗,先生?只要一个法郎哩。
”谁也没有买。
她疲惫不堪,在水手和我们之间的那张餐桌旁边坐了下来,对服务员说:"请来碗汤吧。
一下午连一朵花也没卖掉。
"接着,她用嘶哑的声音对钢琴师说,“你能想象吗,约瑟夫,圣诞节前夜就喝点汤?”钢琴师指了指身旁的那只空空如也的“小费盘”。
年轻的海员已吃完,起身准备离开。
他穿上外套,走到卖花老太太的桌前。
他笑着说了声“圣诞快乐!”,一边挑出两朵小小的花,“多少钱?”“两个法郎,先生。
