新标准大学英语2 UNIT5 课文与译文Catch-22Catch-22 is one of the most famous novels of the last century. It is set in an American military base on a small island in the Mediterranean during the Second World War. Although the story reveals some of the horrors of war through episodes of bloodshed and destruction, it is not a traditional war novel. There are no heroes or heroic acts, and the enemy is not really the Germans (who do not appear in the story), but anyone who can get you killed—and that includes your own commander. Catch-22 is primarily a comic novel, whose main character, an airman called Yossarian, has only one aim—to survive the war and go back home. He thinks he can do this by pretending to be insane.1 It was a horrible joke, but Doc Daneeka didn't laugh until Yossarian came to him one mission later and pleaded again, without any real expectation of success, to be grounded. Doc Daneeka snickered once and was soon immersed in problems of his own, which included Chief White Halfoat, who had been challenging him all that morning to Indian wrestle, and Yossarian, who decided right then and there to go crazy.2 "You're wasting your time," Doc Daneeka was forced to tell him.3 "Can't you ground someone who's crazy?"4 "Oh, sure. I have to. There's a rule saying I have to ground anyone who's crazy."5 "Then why don't you ground me? I'm crazy. Ask Clevinger."6 "Clevinger? Where is Clevinger? You find Clevinger and I'll ask him."7 "Then ask any of the others. They'll tell you how crazy I am."8 "They're crazy."9 "Then why don't you ground them?"10 "Why don't they ask me to ground them?"11 "Because they're crazy, that's why."12 "Of course they're crazy," Doc Daneeka replied. "I just told you they're crazy, didn't I? And you can't let crazy people decide whether you're crazy or not, can you?"13 Yossarian looked at him soberly and tried another approach. "Is Orr crazy?"14 "He sure is," Doc Daneeka said.15 "Can you ground him?"16 "I sure can. But first he has to ask me to. That's part of the rule."17 "Then why doesn't he ask you to?"18 "Because he's crazy," Doc Daneeka said. "He has to be crazy to keep flying combat missions after all the close calls he's had. Sure, I can ground Orr. But first he has to ask me to."19 "That's all he has to do to be grounded?"20 "That's all. Let him ask me."21 "And then you can ground him?" Yossarian asked.22 "No. Then I can't ground him."23 "You mean there's a catch?"24 "Sure there's a catch," Doc Daneeka replied. "Catch-22. Anyone who wants to get out of combat duty isn't really crazy."25 There was only one catch and that was catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's own safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle.26 "That's some catch, that catch-22," he observed.27 "It's the best there is," Doc Daneeka agreed.第二十二条军规《第二十二条军规》是上个世纪最著名的小说之一。
大学体验英语视听说2UNIT5原文UNIT 5Path to LeadershipLesson 1 Audio ScriptNelson Mandela, one of the world?s most revered statesmen, led the struggle to replace the apartheid regime of South Africa with a multi-racial democracy. Jailed for 27 years, he emerged to become the country?s first black president and to play a leading role in the drive for peace in other spheres of conflict. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. His charisma, self-depreciating sense of humor and lack of bitterness over his harsh treatment, as well as his amazing life story, partly explain his extraordinary global appeal.Since stepping down as president in 1999, Mandela has become South Africa?s highest-profile ambassador, campaigning against HIV/AIDS and securing his country?s bid to host the 2010 footb all World Cup.Mandela was also involved in peace negotiations in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Burundi and other African countries. He has also encouraged peace efforts in other areas of the world.In 2004, at the age of 85, Mandela retired from public life to spend more time with his family and friends and engage in “quiet reflection.”“Don?t call me, I?ll call you,” he warned anyone thinking of inviting him to future engagements.Lesson 1 Video ScriptIn the fall of 1979, Barack Obama said goodbye to his family and began his first year at Occidental. He became friends withseveral black students, but no matter how hard he tried he just didn?t see himself as one of them.“It was very important for him to figure out what it meant to be a part of the black community. He was an American. He was a black American. And he, I think, needed to figure out what that was.”At the end of his sophomore year, Obama transferred to Columbia University in New York. He hoped to find his place in the cit y?s diverse population. Once there, Obama took long walks through New York?s ethnic neighborhoods. Obama became more disciplined. He ran three miles a day and studied harder. He also turned to books for answers about race and social injustice.“He basically wasn?t going out much. He was reading Nietzsche, and Gandhi, and absorbing just everything he could.”His work gained momentum, and he stopped using drugs.“He was ready for a battle, and he was growing up. He had to figure out what he was going todo for the rest of his life.”ScriptObama stayed focused on his studies and began to think about life after college. He eventually decided to pursue a career as a community organizer, where he hoped to confront the kind of racism and poverty that had troubled him for most of his life. After graduation, he took a job with a Chicago-based group called DevelopingCommunities Project. He moved to the city?s South Sideand began working to improve the conditions in a public housing project called Alt-Geld Gardens.Over the next few years, Obama succeeded at variousprojects, including school reform, hazardous waste cleanup and establishing a job training center.“It became clear to him that so muc h of the struggle of people who had been left behindinvolved laws and that, if he was to be an advocate, that he needed to be credentialed in the law.”Obama set his sights high and applied to Harvard Law School. He was accepted and took outhefty student loans to pay his tuition.Lesson 2 Audio ScriptThe following things may help you make your goals and dreams become a reality. Set clear long-term and short-term goals. Make sure that you?re motivated by and committed to the goals you?ve set for yourself so that you?re willing to take the necessary steps to reach those goals successfully.Stay focused on your goals once you?ve set them. It?s easy to stray off course, but by keeping your goals in sight, you can work towards them every day.Overcome obstacles. No one ever said that reaching your goals and obtaining success was easy.If you truly desire success in life, you must be willing to overcome obstacles on the way to reaching your goals and dreams.Approach your goals and dreams with a positive attitude. Having a negative attitude and thinkin g that you can?t accomplish your goals and be successful in life will only slow you down. Stay positive even if the road gets tough, and you?ll be that much closer to achieving success.Be flexible and creative. Things may not always turn out the way you?d hoped or planned, but by being flexible and creative,you?ll be able to think of new, more efficient ways to reach your goals.Lesson 2 Video Script“Well, thank you for that kind introduction.”Everybody knows his accomplishments: founder of Microsoft, creator of Windows, world?s richest man for most of his career and now Co-Chair of the world?s largest charitable foundation. What was Bill Gates like before he was Bill Gates In exclusive interviews provided to us by Microsoft, family members and Microsoft colleagues provide their own memories of what Bill Gates was like when he was young and what life has been like with him in Microsoft. Bill Gates was born Oct. 28th, 1955 in Seattle to a very prominent family. His father was a lawyer. His mother was very engaged in public matters. And from the beginning of his life, he was really intense and displayed an unusual intelligence. By the time he was in sixth grade, he was already involved in technology and computing and doing things that would be very unusual for most children. He was a very unusual child, very intense, very intelligent from the beginning. And those qualities really help define thecompany that he would later found.“We have a very competitive family, an d I think the competivene ss started very young with card games. My brother likes to think of himself as sort of the best at everything, and it turns out he is a pretty darn good pickleball player.”Script“The family is going somewhere together and the ot her four of us upstairs, getting, gonna get into the car. And …Bill where are you, what are you doing?? and all that sort of thing. And on one occasion in particular he hollered back up. Hesaid, …Mother I?m thinking. Don?t you ever think?? And Mary and I looked at each other an d we sort of, …Well I wonder if we ever do think??”“ My parents were great about sharing their experiences, my Dad talking about different lawsuits he was in, my Mom talking about some of the challenges in the board and non-profit work she was doing. And so from an early age, my sisters and I felt like business problems were something that we could understand and think about. And from an early age, I got a chance to think about well, what do I want to choose to do? And that got me reading magazines, some books, Fortune magazine. And when the computer came along, the idea of starting a business around it was a fairly natural thing."Eager to make his mark on the emerging personal computer industry, which was still tiny, Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard in 1975 after only three semesters and founded Microsoft with his childhood friend Paul Allen.Home ListeningA person?s motivation is combination of desire and energy directed at achievinga goal. 1)influencing someone?s motivation means getting him or her to want to do what you know must be done.People can be motivated by beliefs, values, interests, fear,2)worthy causes, and other such forces. Some of these forces are3) internal, such as needs, interests, and beliefs. Others are external, such as danger, the environment, or 4)pressure from a loved one. There is no simple formula for motivation —you must keep an open viewpoint on human nature. There is a 5)complex array of forces steering the direction of each person, and these forces cannot always be seen or studied. Also, if the same forcesare steering two different people, each one will act differently. Knowing that different people react to different needs will 6) guide your decisions and actions in certain situations.As a leader you have the power to influence motivation. You should allow the needs of your people to coincide with the needs of your organization. Nearlyall people are influenced by the need for job 7)security promotion, raises, and approval from their peers and leaders. Internal forces such as values, morals and Home Listening ethics also influence them. Likewise, the organization needs good people in a wide variety of jobs. Ensure that your people are trained, 8) encouraged, and provided the opportunity to grow. Ensure that the way you conduct business has the same values, morals and ethical principles that you seek in your people. 9)If you conduct business in a dishonest manner, your people will be dishonest to you You should alsoreward good behavior. 10) Although a certificate, letter or a thank you may seem small, they can be powerful motivators. The reward should be specific and prompt. Do not say, “for doing a good job.” Cite the specific action that made you believe it was a good job. In addition, help your people who are good. We all make mistakes or need help to achieve a particular goal.。

U n i t5W a y s t o S u c c e s s课文翻译大学体验英语二Unit 5 Ways to SuccessPassage A My Advice to Students: Education CountsHundreds of students send me e-mail each year asking for advice about education. They want to know what to study, or whether it's okay to drop out of college since that's what I did.A smaller number of parents send messages, seeking guidance for their son or daughter. "How can we steer our child toward success?" they ask.My basic advice is simple and heartfelt: Get the best education you can. Take advantage of high school and college. Learn how to learn.It's true that I dropped out of college to start Microsoft, but I was at Harvard for three years before dropping out--and I'd love to have the time to go back. As I've said before, nobody should drop out of college unless they believe they face the opportunity of a lifetime. And even then they should reconsider.Kathy Cridland, a sixth-grade teacher in Ohio, wrote to say, "Several of my students claim that you never finished high school. Since you are a success, my students perceive that as a reason not to care much about getting a good education."I finished high school!The computer industry has lots of people who didn't finish college, butI'm not aware of any success stories that began with somebody dropping outof high school. I actually don't know any high school dropouts, let alone any successful ones.In my company's early years we had a bright part-time programmer who threatened to drop out of high school to work full-time. We told him no.Quite a few of our people didn't finish college, but we discourage dropping out. Having a diploma certainly helps somebody who is looking to us for a job.College isn't the only place where information exists. You can learn in a library. But somebody handing you a book doesn't automatically foster learning. You want to learn with other people, ask questions, try out ideas and have a way to test your ability. It usually takes more than just a book.Education should be broad, although it's fine to have deep interests, too.In high school there were periods when I was highly focused on writing software, but for most of my high school years I had wide-ranging academic interests. My parents encouraged this, and I'm grateful that they did.Although I attended a lot of different kinds of classes in college, I signed up for only one computer class the whole time. I read about all kinds of things. One parent wrote me that her 15-year-old son "lost himself in the hole of the computer." He got an A in website design, but other grades were sinking, she said.This boy is making a mistake. High school and college offer you the best chance to learn broadly - math, history, various sciences - and to do projects with other kids that teach you first-hand about group dynamics. It's fine to take a deep interest in computers, dance, language or any other discipline, but not if it jeopardizes breadth.If you fall into an obsessive pattern in high school, you've got two problems. One is that you're unlikely to change when you go to college. The other is that if you don't get reasonably good grades, it's hard to go to a college that has the highly motivated, capable students who can really help you learn about the world.In college it's appropriate to think about specialization. Getting real expertise in an area of interest can lead to success — unless the specialty ends up being a dead end or you're not good at. Graduate school is one way to get specialized knowledge, although extended college education isn't always a good investment from a purely economic standpoint.PA 奉告学子:教育是关键比尔·盖茨每年都有数以百计的学生给我发电子邮件,要我就接受教育给他们提建议。
U5P1听力部分:Success can be reached in different ways by people in different careers.Bill Gates began at age 13 to program computers. His vision for personal computing has been central to the success of Microsoft Corporation, the company he founded with his childhood friend in 1975.The former CEO of General Electric, Jack Welch, is a business legend. A famous quote by Mr. Welch is, "Change before you have to." He believes in leading by example and encourages his employees to do their best every day.Michael Jordan said, "I accept failure, but I can't accept not trying." He is one of the best athletes to ever play team sports. His great smile, athletic achievements, and pleasant personality have made him one of the most famous athletes in the world. Michael Jordan spent a lot of time playing basketball as a child but in senior middle school he was taken off the team. Instead of giving up, he worked through adversity and became the greatest basketball player yet.Celine Dion came from humble beginnings in a rural French Canadian town in Canada. The youngest of fourteen children, her voice is internationally known on such soundtracks as Beauty and the Beast and Titanic.Ronaldo is Brazil's greatest talent in soccer since Pele.

Unit5 My Advice to Students: Education CountsHundreds of students send me e-mail each year asking for advice about education.每年都有数以百计的学生给我发电子邮件,要我就接受教育给他们提建议。
They want to know what to study, or whether it's okay to drop out of college since that's what I did.他们想知道该学些什么,或者可不可以从大学辍学,因为我就没有读完大学。
A smaller number of parents send messages, seeking guidance for their son or daughter.也有不少家长给我写信,为子女寻求指导。
"How can we steer our child toward success?" they ask.他们问:“我们怎样才能把孩子引向成功之路?”My basic advice is simple and heartfelt: Get the best education you can. Take advantage of high school and college. Learn how to learn.我的基本忠告很简单,而且是发自内心的:全力获得最佳教育,充分利用高中和大学,学会如何学习。
It's true that I dropped out of college to start Microsoft, but I was at Harvard for three years before dropping out--and I'd love to have the time to go back.不错,为创建微软,我未完成大学学业,不过辍学之前我已经在哈佛呆了三年,而且我真心希望有一天能重返校园。
As I've said before, nobody should drop out of college unless they believe they face the opportunity of a lifetime. And even then they should reconsider.以前我也说过,谁也不应该辍学,除非他坚信自己正面临着一个一生仅有一次的机会,但就算在那个时候也还是应该深思熟虑。
Kathy Cridland, a sixth-grade teacher in Ohio, wrote to say, "Several of my students claim that you never finished high school. Since you are a success, my students perceive that as a reason not to care much about getting a good education."在俄亥俄州教六年级的老师凯西•克里德兰写道,“我的好几个学生声称你根本没有读完高中。
因为你成功了,我的学生就觉得他们也可以不必要接受良好的教育。
”I finished high school!我高中毕业了的!The computer industry has lots of people who didn't finish college, but I'm not aware of any success stories that began with somebody dropping out of high school.计算机行业中确实有很多人没有读完大学,但是我从来没有见过有谁高中没读完就成功创业的。
I actually don't know any high school dropouts, let alone any successful ones.确切地说,我认识的人当中根本没有高中辍学的,更没有高中辍学后事业成功的。
In my company's early years we had a bright part-time programmer who threatened to drop out of high school to work full-time. We told him no.我的公司创立早期,有一个相当出色的兼职程序员,声称要从高中辍学来做全职。
我们叫他不要这么做。
Quite a few of our people didn't finish college, but we discourage dropping out.我们公司里确实有好些人没有读完大学,但我们不希望人们辍学。
Having a diploma certainly helps somebody who is looking to us for a job.谁要想在我们公司谋职,有毕业证书肯定会优先考虑。
College isn't the only place where information exists. Y ou can learn in a library.不一定只有在大学才能获取信息,在图书馆也可以学习。
But somebody handing you a book doesn't automatically foster learning.但人家递给你一本书并不能自动地让你学到东西。
You want to learn with other people, ask questions, try out ideas and have a way to test your ability. It usually takes more than just a book.你需要向别人学习,提问题,将设想付诸实施,设法验证自己的能力。
这一切,往往不是读一两本书就可以做得到的。
Education should be broad, although it's fine to have deep interests, too.接受的教育应该是广泛的,虽然对某些领域情有独钟也不失为一件好事。
In high school there were periods when I was highly focused on writing software, but for most of my high school years I had wide-ranging academic interests.读高中时,我有一段时间醉心于软件编写,但大部分时间里,我的学习兴趣相当广泛。
My parents encouraged this, and I'm grateful that they did.我父母鼓励我这么做,对此我感激不尽。
Although I attended a lot of different kinds of classes in college, I signed up for only one computer class the whole time. I read about all kinds of things.大学期间,我修了很多不同的课程,但我从头至尾只选修了一门计算机课。
我读书涉猎很广。
One parent wrote me that her 15-year-old son "lost himself in the hole of the computer."有位家长写信说,她15岁的儿子“钻进计算机无底洞里了”。
He got an A in website design, but other grades were sinking, she said.他的网站设计课得了“A”,但别的科目分数都在下降,她写道。
This boy is making a mistake.这个孩子犯了一个错误。
High school and college offer you the best chance to learn broadly - math, history, various sciences - and to do projects with other kids that teach you first-hand about group dynamics. 高中和大学给你提供了最佳机会,你可以广泛学习——数学,历史,各种学科——有机会跟着别的孩子一起做项目,亲身感受到群体的动力。
It's fine to take a deep interest in computers, dance, language or any other discipline, but not if it jeopardizes breadth.你对计算机、舞蹈、语言或其他任何的科目有深入的兴趣也无可厚非,但太偏执而舍弃学习广度就不是一件好事了。
If you fall into an obsessive pattern in high school, you've got two problems.如果高中阶段兴趣过于集中,你会面临两个问题。
One is that you're unlikely to change when you go to college.第一个就是进了大学以后你很可能没法改变。
The other is that if you don't get reasonably good grades, it's hard to go to a college that has the highly motivated, capable students who can really help you learn about the world.另一个问题就是如果分数不够高,你就很难考入大学,而无法向那些积极性很高,很有才能的学生一起学习,他们可以真正帮助你了解这个世界。
In college it's appropriate to think about specialization.大学期间可以适当考虑专业的问题。
Getting real expertise in an area of interest can lead to success--unless the specialty ends up being a dead end or you're not good at.深入掌握自己感兴趣的领域的专业知识,能够引导你走向成功,除非这个专业没有发展前途,或者你并不很擅长这个方面。
