Uni t8课文翻译课文ARefle c t i on s of a Ch i n e se mother in t he West一位西方华裔母亲得思考1.很多人想了解中国父母就是如何培养出如此成功得孩子得。

她们想知道，为什么这些中国父母能养育出那么多天分极佳得孩子，她们就是否也能培养出这样得孩子呢？2.事实就是，中国父母得做法，对固执己见得西方人来说，令人愤慨，难以想象,甚至就是违法得、中国母亲可以不客气地对正在狼吞虎咽得肥胖孩子说：“喂，小胖子，您要减肥了。

”与此相反，西方父母必须体谅地、小心翼翼而拐弯抹角地谈及“健康”，而且永远都不会提及“胖“ 字、结果，孩子还就是因为饮食紊乱与消极得自我评价得去求医问药。

长期以来我一直苦思冥想,中国父母这样做就是如何能够全身而退得，我认为中西方得父母之间存在三种意识形态上得差异。

3.首先,我注意到四方父母呵护子女得自尊，使她们免受一切批评。

她们担心孩子失败后得感受，于就是不断尽其所能解除子女得忧虑,而不管英表现如何糟糕。

西方父母认为孩子就是娇弱得，不够坚强，因此她们得行为也就与中国父母大相径庭了。

4.举个例子，如果一个孩子考试得了个A -回家，西方父母很可能会表扬孩子。

而对中国母亲来说，A 「根本不算什么好成绩;她还会不快地叹气，问到底出了什么问题。

如果孩子得了B 回家，一些西方父母尽管十分不情愿，仍然会表扬孩子。

其她西方父母会表达出不满，但不会质疑孩子得智力，或贸然说孩子“笨蛋”、“一文不值”或"太可恶了”、而私下里,西方父母可能会感到担心，但绝不会让孩子们知道、5.如果中国孩子得了B,不管什么科目，首先而临得就就是一声尖叫与恼怒得爆发、中国母亲会更加不遗余力地找来几十也许几百套得测验题，不惜采取手头任何办法来让自己孩子得成绩提高到A。

6.中国父母要求完美得成绩，因为她们理所当然地认为孩子完全可以做到，而且分数就是比 "自尊”更为重要得衡疑成功得标准、如果孩子没拿到全A,中国父母就认为这就是因为孩子不够努力。

Unit 8 MoneyTime Spent Agonizing over Money[1] Within hours of a recent major stock market drop, I telephoned my Ford dealer and ordered the station wagon that I test-drove the day before. As my friends not so subtly pointed out, the Dow Jones Industrial Average didn't have much to do with my financial situation and shouldn't affect my purchase. Besides, my old car had caused me headaches for months.[2] Still, I spent the evening asking myself: Could I afford a new car? Should I be saving instead of spending? Would we need to cut back on vacations?[3] On the list of items people worry about, money is almost always at the top.[4] A study in the Wall Street Journal found that 70 percent of the public lives from paycheck to paycheck. Mortgage debt has increased 300 percent since 1975, and consumer bankruptcies are at an all-time high. Most marriages that fail list financial problems as a contributing factor.[5] When the Dow fell 554 points last October, millions of people lost billions of dollars, on paper anyway. There was expert anxiety on Wall Street and old-fashioned worry on Main Street. Our reaction confirmed what we already knew: We are a people consumed by financial stress.*A “Raw Material”[6] As the Bible tells us, worrying about money—or anything else for that matter—won't do us any good. “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?” Jesus asked. “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow? They do not labor or spin.”[7] In my heart, I aspire to be like those lilies. But in my head, I feel a need to hoard.[8] It is an unusual person who can live free from financial stress, or who can spend money on others as easily as he spends it on himself.[9] Thomas Edison was one of that rare breed. Had the great inventor stored his money, he would have died a wealthy man. His first successful invention netted him $40,000, a huge sum in 1869. During his lifetime, he patented 1,093 inventions, yet he departed the world penniless.[10] Years later, his son C harles recalled his father's approach to money: “He considered it a raw material, like metal, to be used rather than amassed, and so he kept plowing his funds back into new objects. Several times he was all but bankrupt. But he refused to let dollar signs govern his actions.”[11] John Wesley was the same. The founder of Methodism had the highest earnedincome in 18th century England, but he gave it all away. His philosophy about money was simple: “Earn all you can, save all you can, give all you can.”*Root of Evil?[12] Money may not be the root of all evil, but if it keeps us up at night, it has become way too important in our lives.[13] That was the lesson of Leo Tolstoy's tale “Elias”, which told of a rich farm couple who lost all their money and were forced to take jobs as servants.[14] A guest one day asked the wife if she was miserable being poor, especially in light of the great wealth she had once enjoyed. The woman's answer—that she was happier than ever before—surprised the visitor.[15] “W hen we were rich, my husband and I had so many cares that we had no time to talk to one another, or to think of our souls, or to pray to God,” the wife explained. “We lay awake at night worrying, lest the ewes should lie on their lambs, and we got up again and again to see that all was well... Now, when my husband and I wake in the morning, we always greet each other in love and harmony. We live peacefully, having nothing to worry about.”[16] For most of us, financial security is an elusive goal. No matter how much we have, it's not enough. Kahlil Gibran put it this way: “The fear of need, when the pantry is full, is the thirst that can not be satisfied.”[17] When the stock market falls, we can panic, hoard, and worry if we have enough. Or we can take a deep breath and remember: Money is merely a raw material to be plowed back into something else.把时间花在为钱苦恼上1 最近一次股市大跌后的几个小时内，我就打电话给我的福特汽车商，订购了我前一天试开过的旅行车。

Unit8AMagicianatStretchingaDollar课文翻译大学英语一Unit 8 A Magician at Stretching a DollarThe boy was at first delighted to discover the present his mother had hidden away as his Christmas gift. But then he began to worry that his mother would now no longer have the pleasure of giving him a surprise. What was he to do?1.That December, with Christmas approaching, she was out at work and Doris wasin the kitchen when I let myself into her bedroom one afternoon in search of a safety pin. Since her bedroom opened onto a community hallway, she kept the door locked, but needing the pin, I took the key from its hiking place, unlocked the door and stepped in. Standing against the wall was a big, black bicycle with balloon tires. I recognized it instantly. It was the same second-hand bike I'd been admiring in a Baltimore Street shop window. I'd even asked about the price. It was a shock.Something like $15. Somehow my mother had scraped together enough for a down payment and meant to surprise me with the bicycle on Christmas morning.2.I was deeply moved by the discovery and yet sickened by the knowledge that,bursting into her room like this, I had robbed her of the pleasure of seeing me astonished and delighted on Christmas day. I hadn't wanted to know her lovely secret; still coming upon it like this made me feel as though I'd struck a blow against her happiness. I backed out, put the key back in its hiding place, and thought over what to do.3.I decided that between now and Christmas I must do nothing, absolutely nothing,to reveal the slightest hint of my terrible knowledge. I must avoid the least word that night reveal my possession of her secret. Nothing must deny her the happiness of seeing me completely amazed on Christmas day.4.In the privacy of my bedroom I began composing and testing exclamations ofdelight: ―Wow!‖ ―A bike with balloon tires! I don't believe it!‖ ―I'm the luckiest boy alive!‖ And so on. They all owed a lot to movies in which boys like Mickey Rooney had seen their wildest dreams come true. I soon realized that, with my lack of acting talent, all of them were going to sound false at the critical moment when I wanted to cry out my love spontaneously from the heart. Maybe it would be better to say nothing but appear to be shocked into such deep pleasure that speech had escaped me/ I wasn't sure, though. I'd seen speechless gratitude in the movies too, and it never really worked until the actors managed to cry a few quiet tears. I doubted I could cry on cue, so I began thinking about other expressions of speechless amazement. In front of a hand-held mirror in my bedroom I tried the whole range of expressions; mouth open and eyes wide; hands slapped firmly against both cheeks to keep the jaw from falling off; ear-to-ear grin with all teeth fully exposed while hugging myself with both arms. These and more I practiced for several days without acquiring confidence in any of them. I decided to wait until Christmas morning and see if anything came naturally...5.That Christmas morning she woke up early, ―to see what Santa Claus brought,‖she said with just the right tone of voice to indicate we were all old enough to know who Santa Claus was. I came out of mybedroom with my present for her and Doris, and Doris came with hers. My mother's has been placed under the tree during the night. There were a few small brightly wrapped packages, a big doll for Doris, but no bicycle. I must have looked disappointed.6.―It looks like Santa Claus didn't d o too well by you this year, Buddy,‖ she said, asI opened packages. A shirt. A necktie. I said someth ing halfhearted like, ―It's thethought that counts,‖ but what I felt was bitter disappointment. I supposed she'd found the bike just too expensive and sent it back.7.―Wait a minute!‖ she cried, snapping her fingers. ―There's something in mybedroom I f orgot all about.‖8.She went out, and a moment later came back wheeling the big black two-wheelerwith balloon tires. I didn't have to pretend, after all. The three of us—Doris, my mother, and I –were people bred to hold back emotional expressions of love, but I did something that startled both my mother and me. I threw my arms around her spontaneously and kissed her.9.―All right now, don't carry on about it. It's only a bicycle,‖ she said.10.Still, I knew that she was as happy as I was to see her so happy.发现了母亲为他藏好的圣诞礼物男孩起先很高兴。
