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。
