新视界大学英语综合教程第三册第一单元课文翻译及练习答案ActiveReading两种判断判断一个人有两种不同的方式，有时判断的最终目的是正确地判断一个人，不过另外一种则不是如此，并且这种判断要常见得多。

我们往往认为所有的判断都属于第一种。

如果能意识到哪些是第一种而哪些不是的话，我们也许会更幸福。

第一种判断，即把正确地判断一个人作为最终目的的判断，包括法院判决、考试成绩及大部分比赛。

这些判断当然可能会有误判，但因为其最终目的是正确地判断一个人，通常会有某种类似于上诉的程序。

如果你觉得别人没有正确评价你，你可以表示反对，说你受到了不公平的待遇。

几乎所有对孩子的判断都属于第一类，所以在小时候我们就养成了这种习惯，认为所有的判断都是这样。

但实际上还有更广泛地存在着的第二类判断，在这种判断中，对你作出判断只是做另一件事的手段。

这包括大学招生、聘用及作投资决定，当然也包括在约会时作出的判断。

这种判断并不是真正意义上对你作出的评价。

假设你要为国家队挑选运动员。

简单起见，假设这是一个没有位置要求的运动，并且你需要挑选二十个运动员。

有一些明星运动员肯定要在队里，还有许多肯定不能入选。

只有那些难作取舍的情况会让你的判断产生差别。

即使你搞砸了，低估了排在第二十名的运动员，使他落选了，他的位置被排在第二十一名的运动员所代替，你还是组建了一支好的队伍。

如果运动员之间的能力分配正常，第二十一名运动员只会比第二十名略微逊色，或者他们之间的差距比测量误差还要小。

那位排在第二十名的运动员可能会觉得自己被错误地判断了。

但是在此你的目的不是为人们提供能力评估服务，而是组建一支队伍，如果排名第二十位的与排名第二十一位的运动员之间的差距比测量误差还小，你还是作了最佳选择。

用“不公平”来形容这种“不正确的判断”是一种错误的类比。

因为在此目的不是为了对某个特定的个体作出正确的评估，而是选择合理的最佳组合。

在此，会误导我们的一点是选择者看起来有点权力。

Unit 1 英译汉1.第一种判断，即把正确地判断一个人作为最终目的的判断，包括法院裁决、考试成绩及大部分比赛。

2.在此目的不是为了对某个特定的个体做出正确的评估，而是选择合理的最佳组合。

3.我们早年所受的训练，加上我们总是一自我为中心，使我们认为对我们所作的每个判断都是关于我们本身的判断。

4.令人惊奇的是，把被拒绝看得不那么针对个人，能帮助你更少地遭到拒绝。

5.如果大学申请人意识到大部分选择过程是那么迅速、多么不考虑个体需求，他们就会更努力地推销自己，并能更加坦然地对待录取结果。

汉译英：1.We do not need to care too much about what people say about us in that what they say isnot necessarily objective.2.He changed quite some jobs for the sake of his self-development before he finally found aposition suitable for him. But his experience doesn’t apply to everyone.3.We should first figure out what we really need before we set goals for ourselves. The morewe know about what we need, the easier it is to set practical goals.4.What most employers care about is not your self-improvement, but what you contribute tothe company.5.Whatever the outcome will be, do not give up easily. We should not underestimate ourability/ourselves just because of one failure in seeking employment.Unit 2英译汉1.他们买不起昂贵的礼物，也不想让我们觉得我们比不上别的孩子——在圣诞节早上，他们从圣诞树下找到各种各样的新奇玩具，据说是圣诞老人留下的。

新视界大学英语综合教程第三册第三单元课文翻译及练习答案Active Reading文森特·凡·高大部分人所知道的凡·高的两个最重要但显然互不相关的特点是：他对色彩神奇、几乎具有爆发力的运用以及他糟糕的精神状态，后者最终导致他生命悲剧性的结束。

但是，根据凡·高死后的医学调查，现在看来这两个特点可能是彼此相关的，无论是在他生命的最后还是更早的时期，他的精神状况都可能影响了他的艺术风格。

凡·高于1853年出生于荷兰，早年替一位国际艺术商工作，因此他去过伦敦、巴黎及比利时。

1880年在他弟弟西奥的支持下，他决定成为一个画家，因此，他早期的作品充满了北欧昏暗的光线。

在巴黎，凡·高遇到了许多后来被称为印象主义派的艺术家，如德加、土鲁斯-劳特。

累克、毕沙罗、高庚。

他的风格受到他们的影响而发生了改变，变得轻快而明亮。

他使用细微线条的原色（红、蓝、黄）和补色（紫、橙、绿）。

他还对高庚画作的相对抽象风格很敏感，在高庚的画作中，物体的形状都通过不同的颜色区域表现出来。

但是，尽管在这样激励人心的气氛下工作，凡·高还是没法与他那些越来越成功的朋友们相比。

他付不起钱请模特，所以他画了很多自画像，那些自画像可能展现了他探索内心的天赋。

凡·高很快就对他在巴黎的生活感到气馁，所以他搬到了法国南部的亚尔，那儿的阳光吸引了他，他希望在那儿成立一个画家之家。

他感觉自己从那儿的人、建筑物及景色中得到释放，所以他用生动而充满激情的色彩，用他自己和他的事业中从未有过的振奋来描绘他们。

他热切地希望高庚来看他并且最终说服了高庚前往亚尔。

《向日葵》及描绘他家的画作一方面是为了迎接高庚，另一方面也反映了他的喜悦之情。

但因为凡·高对高庚的强烈的友情及他们关于绘画方法的带敌意的争论，高庚离开了亚尔。

因为这件事，凡·高切掉了自己的一部分右耳。

因为抑郁和幻听，凡·高在接下来的两年里进出了好几次精神病院。

新视界大学英语综合教程第三册第三单元课文翻译及练习答案Active Reading文森特·凡·高大部分人所知道的凡·高的两个最重要但显然互不相关的特点是：他对色彩神奇、几乎具有爆发力的运用以及他糟糕的精神状态，后者最终导致他生命悲剧性的结束。

但是，根据凡·高死后的医学调查，现在看来这两个特点可能是彼此相关的，无论是在他生命的最后还是更早的时期，他的精神状况都可能影响了他的艺术风格。

凡·高于1853年出生于荷兰，早年替一位国际艺术商工作，因此他去过伦敦、巴黎及比利时。

1880年在他弟弟西奥的支持下，他决定成为一个画家，因此，他早期的作品充满了北欧昏暗的光线。

在巴黎，凡·高遇到了许多后来被称为印象主义派的艺术家，如德加、土鲁斯-劳特。

累克、毕沙罗、高庚。

他的风格受到他们的影响而发生了改变，变得轻快而明亮。

他使用细微线条的原色（红、蓝、黄）和补色（紫、橙、绿）。

他还对高庚画作的相对抽象风格很敏感，在高庚的画作中，物体的形状都通过不同的颜色区域表现出来。

但是，尽管在这样激励人心的气氛下工作，凡·高还是没法与他那些越来越成功的朋友们相比。

他付不起钱请模特，所以他画了很多自画像，那些自画像可能展现了他探索内心的天赋。

凡·高很快就对他在巴黎的生活感到气馁，所以他搬到了法国南部的亚尔，那儿的阳光吸引了他，他希望在那儿成立一个画家之家。

他感觉自己从那儿的人、建筑物及景色中得到释放，所以他用生动而充满激情的色彩，用他自己和他的事业中从未有过的振奋来描绘他们。

他热切地希望高庚来看他并且最终说服了高庚前往亚尔。

《向日葵》及描绘他家的画作一方面是为了迎接高庚，另一方面也反映了他的喜悦之情。

但因为凡·高对高庚的强烈的友情及他们关于绘画方法的带敌意的争论，高庚离开了亚尔。

因为这件事，凡·高切掉了自己的一部分右耳。

因为抑郁和幻听，凡·高在接下来的两年里进出了好几次精神病院。

Unit 1Text A Never，ever give up!永不言弃！1 As a young boy，Britain's great Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill, attended a public school called Harrow. He was not a good student，and had he not been from a famous family，he probably would have been removed from the school for deviating from the rules. Thankfully, he did finish at Harrow and his errors there did not preclude him from going on to the university。

He eventually had a premier army career whereby he was later elected prime minister. He achieved fame for his wit，wisdom, civic duty，and abundant courage in his refusal to surrender during the miserable dark days of World War II。

His amazing determination helped motivate his entire nation and was an inspiration worldwide.英国的伟大首相温斯顿·丘吉尔爵士，小时候在哈罗公学上学。

当时他可不是个好学生，要不是出身名门，他可能早就因为违反纪律被开除了。

Unit 5 Active readingThe lonely American1 Americans in the 21st century devote more technology to staying connected than any society in history, yetsomehow the devices fail us: Studies show that we feel increasingly alone. Our lives are spent in a tug-of-warbetween conflicting desires – we want to stay connected, and we want to be free. We lurch back and forth, reachingfor both. How much of one should we give up in order to have more of the other? How do we know when weit right?2 Yet people in this country continue to drift apart. We need to know why.frenetic busyness of our lives. Americans may be the only people in the world who3 First, let’s look at thebelieve that each individual has the right and the capacity to fit whatever he or she wants into one small life. Americais the original “You can be anything you want if you really try, and it’s never too late to start tryingto4 A good friend described the impact of busyness on our neighborhoods brilliantly: “Being nei mean visiting people. Now being nice to your neighbors means not bothering them.” People’s lives how busy they are. Lives also are shaped by the respect and deference that is given to busyness – especially when it isvalued above connection and community. If people are considerate, they assume that their neighbors are very busyand so try not to intrude on them. Dropping by is no longer neighborly. It is simply rude.hand rather than an activity that is essential 5We treat socializing as if it’s a frivolous diversion from the tasks atto our well-being as individuals and as a community. Soon our not bothering to call people (or even email them) getsread by others as a sign that we are too caught up in the busy sweep of our own lives to have time for them. Ourfriends are not surprised. Our relatives may be indignant, but even they know how hard it is. An unspoken understanding develops. It’s too bad that we’ve lost touch, but that’s just the way it is.6 The pace of everyday life may push us toward isolation, but there is a pull, as well: a very seductive picture ofstanding apart as a victory, not a retreat. Ever since Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote his famous essay and Henry DavidThoreau set out to embody the concept in his cabin on Walden Pond, a long series of American icons have idealizedthe concept of self-reliance.7 And when we do find ourselves isolated, by standing tall in our own minds, side by side with self-reliant heroes, each of us is suddenly no longeralone but part of a group –a great American tradition of lonesome cowboys and go-it-alone entrepreneurs. That psychological magic becomes the spoonful of sugar that makes painful experiences of finding ourselves left outeasier to swallow. We may have isolated ourselves without entirely meaning to, but we also have ended up in a placethat looks a lot like where we always knew that we were supposed to stand. On the outside, proud to be there.8 It is also the last place on earth that a person would want to be.9 The consequences of social disconnection are both extensive and remarkably diverse. To begin with, socialsupport is an important determinant of overall health. It has significant effects on longevity, on an individual’s response to stress, on immune functions, and on the incidence of a variety of specific illnesses. In diseases as variedas heart attacks and dementia, medical research repeatedly has found that social networks and social activity have aprotective effect.10 Social isolation damages ecological health as well. The rising tide of single-person households strains theearth’s resources. Additionally, in our consumer-oriented culture, a common solution to not having enough people inone’s life is to turn to things, objects that will define one’s identity through possessions rather than through one’splace in a social world. (We once passed an elegant store in New York City whose name summed up the problem:More and More. We watched the shop from across the street, keeping a safe distance.)11 The truth is that if one can bring oneself to acknowledge loneliness, half the battle is won. It is not an easyhalf of a battle, however. When we began to talk about these ideas with friends, their first response was to passionately defend their styles of staying disconnected. Having chosen, like so many Americans, to step back, theyexplained how right the choice has been for them.12 Small daily choices – whether to go to a local store or order off the Internet, whether to pick up a ringingtelephone or let it go to voicemail, whether to get together with a friend or pop in a DVD –end up defining one’s social world. These little decisions are cumulative. You step back a little from others. They step back a little from you.You feel a little left out. Feeling left out, unexamin ed, leads you to step back further. But feeling left out, when itexamined,can lead people to work a little harder to reconnect.13 Loneliness was never the goal. It’s just the spot where too many people wind up. We get stuck because the world we have wandered away from is so frantic and demanding. We get stuck because we have dreamed about lonesome heroes who stand defiantly apart. We get stuck because we feel left out and stop looking for ways back in.We should remember that the outside was not meant to be our final destination.孤独的美国人1 在使人与人保持联系方面，21世纪的美国人投入了比历史上任何一个社会都要多的技术手段。

新视界大学英语综合教程第三册第一单元课文翻译及练习答案Active Reading两种判断判断一个人有两种不同的方式，有时判断的最终目的是正确地判断一个人，不过另外一种则不是如此，并且这种判断要常见得多。

我们往往认为所有的判断都属于第一种。

如果能意识到哪些是第一种而哪些不是的话，我们也许会更幸福。

第一种判断，即把正确地判断一个人作为最终目的的判断，包括法院判决、考试成绩及大部分比赛。

这些判断当然可能会有误判，但因为其最终目的是正确地判断一个人，通常会有某种类似于上诉的程序。

如果你觉得别人没有正确评价你，你可以表示反对，说你受到了不公平的待遇。

几乎所有对孩子的判断都属于第一类，所以在小时候我们就养成了这种习惯，认为所有的判断都是这样。

但实际上还有更广泛地存在着的第二类判断，在这种判断中，对你作出判断只是做另一件事的手段。

这包括大学招生、聘用及作投资决定，当然也包括在约会时作出的判断。

这种判断并不是真正意义上对你作出的评价。

假设你要为国家队挑选运动员。

简单起见，假设这是一个没有位置要求的运动，并且你需要挑选二十个运动员。

有一些明星运动员肯定要在队里，还有许多肯定不能入选。

只有那些难作取舍的情况会让你的判断产生差别。

即使你搞砸了，低估了排在第二十名的运动员，使他落选了，他的位置被排在第二十一名的运动员所代替，你还是组建了一支好的队伍。

如果运动员之间的能力分配正常，第二十一名运动员只会比第二十名略微逊色，或者他们之间的差距比测量误差还要小。

那位排在第二十名的运动员可能会觉得自己被错误地判断了。

但是在此你的目的不是为人们提供能力评估服务，而是组建一支队伍，如果排名第二十位的与排名第二十一位的运动员之间的差距比测量误差还小，你还是作了最佳选择。

用“不公平”来形容这种“不正确的判断”是一种错误的类比。

因为在此目的不是为了对某个特定的个体作出正确的评估，而是选择合理的最佳组合。

在此，会误导我们的一点是选择者看起来有点权力。
