第15課集団議論と日本語「お疲れ様」と集団意識言語が文化の投影であるとするならば、われわれを動かしている論理と欧米人を動かしている論理が言語に深くその影を落としているであろうことは、当然予想のできることである。

その例をもっとも日常的な挨拶のことばのなかに求めてみよう。

日本人は一日の仕事の終わったあととか、共同である仕事を完成させたとかいった場面では、「お疲れ様」とお互いにねぎらいの言葉をかけ合うことが一般的な習慣になっている。

この「お疲れ様」は仕事にかかわる場合だけではなく、もっと軽い意味で別れに際しての儀礼的挨拶といった程度に使われることも多い。

ときには一パイ飲屋のオカミから帰りしなに「お疲れ様」などと声をかけられるといった場面さえあるのであって、こういった状況で「お疲れ様」といった勤労とかかわる言葉が使われるといった風景は、やはりきわめて日本的なものということができるのである。

さらにこの「お疲れ様」という挨拶には、勤労のイメージとからみ合った一種の「お互い」意識、共同体の成員としての集団意識がひそんでいるのを見逃すことはできない。

自分も他人に向かって「お疲れ様」といいながら、他人からもそういわれることを当然のこととして期待しているという、いわば集団のなかの約束的発言であるという一面である。

このような日常の挨拶語のなかに、含意として存在する勤労と集団のイメージの重なり合いは、やはり共同作業が生活のための大前提になっていた水稲栽培的農耕民文化に属するきわめて日本的なパターンであるように思われるのである。

そう思って日本の、特に農村における日常の挨拶を考えてみると、そのほとんどが勤労と集団のイメージに結びついていることに気がつく。

「お早うございます」という朝の挨拶からそれが始まる。

これを「お早うございました」などと英語の現在完了的な使い方でいう地方も多く、「お早う」という発言のなかにはお互いに相手の早起きをたたえ、一日の勤労への出発を確認し合うといった意味がこめられているのである。

英语专业泛读教程第四册课文翻译UNIT1-UNIT10英语专业泛读教程第四册课文翻译（unit1-10）一、天才与工匠许多人羡慕作家们的精彩小说，但却很少有人知道作家们是如何辛勤笔耕才使一篇小说问世的。

以下的短文将讨论小说的酝酿过程，以及作家是如何将这小说雕琢成一件精致完美的艺术品。

有一次，我在暮色中来到小树林边一棵鲜花盛开的小桃树前。

我久久站在那里凝视着，直到最后一道光线消逝。

我看不到那树原先的模样，看不见曾穿透果核，能崩碎你的牙齿的力量，也看不到那使它与橡树和绿草相区别的原则。

显现在我面前的，是一种深邃而神秘的魅力。

当读者读到一部杰出的小说时，他也会这样如痴如狂，欲将小说字字句句刻骨铭心，不提出任何问题。

但即使是个初学写作者也知道，除那将小说带到世上的文字之外，还有更多的构成小说生命的因素，小说的生命并不始于写作，而始于内心深处的构思。

要创作出有独创性的作品，并不要求懂得创造的功能。

多少世纪以来的艺术、哲学及科学创造都出自人们的头脑，而创造者也许从未想到去关注创造的内在过程。

然而，在我看来，对创造工作一定程度的了解，至少会使我们通过知道两个事实，增长我们处理正在出现的故事的智慧。

首先，天赋不是掌握了技艺的艺术家独有的特性，而是人脑的创造性功能。

不仅所有对技艺的掌握都含有天赋，而且每个人都具有天赋，无论他的天赋发展是何等不充分。

对技艺的掌握是天赋的显现，是经过培养的，发展了的和受过训练的天赋。

你的天赋在最原始的层面上起作用。

它的任务就是创造。

它是你的故事的创造者。

第二，将你的小说带进世界的文字是艺术家的工作，它就和一个泥瓦匠的工作一样，有意识、谨慎而实实在在。

天赋正如理解力、记忆力和想象力一样是我们的精神禀赋中的天然部分，而技艺却不是。

它必须通过实践才能学到，并要通过实践才能掌握。

如果要使在我们内心深处浮现的故事跃然纸上，光彩照人，那么，每个故事都须有感染力极强的优雅文笔。

只有健全的技艺才能使我们做到这一点。

英语泛读教程1课文翻译Unit2劳拉·英格尔·威尔德写了很多书,讲述她在荒野里的生活。

本文是从中选出的一个真实故事。

1872年，她们全家住在威斯康辛州大森林边儿上的一幢小木屋中。

方圆几里之内没有一户人家，也远离所有的城镇。

一天，她父亲外出，荒野中只剩下她们母女四人。

晚上，来了一只大熊，她们该怎么办呢？她们最后会安然无恙吗？请看下面的故事。

一天, 爸爸说春天来了。

大森林中的雪已经开始融化。

雪块儿从树枝上掉下来，落在下面松软的雪堆上，形成一个个小洞。

午间的时侯，屋檐下所有的大冰柱在阳光下颤动闪烁。

在冰柱尖儿上，一颗颗小水珠摇摇欲坠。

爸爸说，他得去城里一趟，卖掉他一冬捕获的兽皮。

一天晚上, 他扎了很大一捆毛皮。

毛皮太多，爸爸把它们紧紧捆在一起时, 这堆毛皮几乎和他一样高。

清晨, 爸爸把这一大捆毛皮背在肩上, 向城镇出发了。

因为毛皮太多，他没有带枪。

妈妈很担心。

但爸爸说，如果日出前就出发，并且快些走，他可以在天黑前赶回来。

最近的城镇也很远。

劳拉和玛莉从没见过城镇, 也没见过商店。

她们甚至从未见过两幢连在一起的房子。

但是她们知道城里有好多的房屋, 还有一家满是糖果、印花布和其他神奇东西的商店。

在那里可以买到火药、子弹、盐和糖。

她们知道，爸爸会用毛皮从镇上的店主那儿换回漂亮东西的。

整整一天,她们等着爸爸给她们带回礼物。

太阳下沉到树梢上, 冰柱上的水也不再往下滴, 她们开始急切地盼望着爸爸的归来。

太阳已经不见了, 森林也渐渐暗了下来, 爸爸没有回来。

妈妈准备好晚餐, 摆好了桌子, 爸爸还是没有回来。

到了平时干杂活的时间, 他依然没有回来。

妈妈说,劳拉可以和她一起去挤牛奶, 因为劳拉可以帮忙提灯笼。

劳拉穿上了外套, 妈妈帮她系好扣子。

妈妈点燃了灯笼里的蜡烛, 劳拉则戴上了她的红色手套。

两只手套由一根红纱绳连着, 挂在脖子上。

能去帮妈妈挤牛奶，劳拉感到十分自豪。

她小心翼翼地提着灯笼。

灯笼壁是用锡皮做的, 上面有一些豁口，以便烛光透出来。
