Unit 4 Matriculation FixationChinese Translation of Paragraphs1. 两年前的一天,我坐在费城一所医院的大厅里焦急地等待着,一位素不相识的人突然向我讲述了他女儿的大学就读计划。
由于那天下午我79岁的老母亲刚动了大手术,还没醒过来,我无法全神贯注地听他的叙述。
但是随着他讲述的深入,我却记住了其中的大部分与话题有关的细节。
2. 这位女生虽然算不上出类拔萃,但还算出色,她已经被一所一流名牌大学接受,不过没有助学金。
与此同时,一所当地的二大学也录取了她,并承诺全免学费。
由于家里还有几个孩子排在后面将上大学,经济自然有些紧,这位父亲便说服女儿接受了第二所大学的录取通知。
现在,他担心她某天会懊悔这个决定,因为她将来毕业的学校名气较小,结交不广,为她敞开的大门也少些。
虽然她的学位证书使她离通往成功的黄金大道并不遥远,但却不会把她直接放在这条大道上。
3. 我本世俗百姓,对一些陌生人的婚姻、职业和嗜好最为私密的细枝末节耳熟能详,因此很早便掌握了调解这类危机的必备技巧。
我告诉这位男士,我许多高中同学都毕业于这所二流大学,但他们都过上了丰富而充实的生活。
4. 我告诉他,我自己就毕业于费城一所二流大学,和她女儿要就读的学校并无二致,而我也已在世上为自己找到了一小块立足之地。
我还告诉他,我的大学岁月是我人生中最快乐的时光,教授们既有才识又很敬业,对他们的教诲和启发我永怀感恩之心。
他又追问我的个人情况,我解释说我是个自由作家,我扼要罗列了自己的资历,还告诉他我对自己的职业生涯也很满意。
5. 这位父亲从来没有听说过我,也没有读过我的作品。
尽管他对我那可怜的履历佯装兴趣,我依然看出他已经崩溃了。
他女儿也计划从事新闻行业,如果走上和我一样的学术道路,最终也会像我一样失败。
6. 我始终没有弄明白他为什么去那医院。
7. 我之所以提及此事,是因为它折射了在该送孩子上大学的时刻到来时家长们神经质到了什么程度。
1. “一年365 天,一周7 天,一天24 小时,生意始终在进展,那意味着一年365 天,一周7 天,一天24 小时,竞争也同样在进展,”豪特说,“公司取胜的方法之一就是要更快地到达‘目的地’!这就是说,你不仅要把全部能支持公司快速运转的功能都调动起来,而且还得知道如何确定‘目的地’是哪里。
这样,不仅对那些行动快速的人们,也对那些思维灵敏,并有志气按自己的想法行事的人们都提出了要求。
这须要全公司各部门的运作,而不仅仅是管理部门的工作。
“Business happens 24/7/365, which means that competition happens 24/7/365, as well,” says Haut. “One way that companies win is by getting ‘there’ faster, which means that you not only have to mobilize all of the functions that support a business to move quickly, but you have to know how t o decide where ‘there’ is! This creates a requirement not only for people who can act quickly, but for those who can think fast with the courage to act on their convictions. This needs to run throughout an organization and is not exclusive to management.”(第一章P29 第一段)2. 最终,职业地位包含对职业标准的遵守。
很多律师通过在行业内外把自己塑造成一个具有良好职业道德的典范来找到自我价值。

”2 We love to hear the stories of people who have been transformed by their tribulations, perhaps because they testify to a bona fide type of psychological truth, one that sometimes gets lost amid endless reports of disaster: There seems to be a built-in human capacity to flourish under the most difficult circumstances. Positive responses to profoundly disturbing experiences are not limited to the toughest or the bravest.In fact, roughly half the people who struggle with adversity say that their lives subsequently in some ways improved.2我们都爱听人们经历苦难后发生转变的故事,可能是因为这些故事证实了一条真正的心理学上的真理,这条真理有时会湮没在无数关于灾难的报道中:在最困难的境况中,人所具有的一种内在的奋发向上的能力会进发出来。

这需要全公司各部门的运作,而不仅仅是管理部门的工作。
“Business happens 24/7/365, which means that competition happens 24/7/365, as well,” says Haut. “One way that companies win is by getting ‘there’ faster, which means that you not only have to mobilize all of the functions that support a business to move quickly, but you have to know how to decide where ‘there’ is! This creates a requirement not only for people who can act quickly, but for those who can think fast with the courage to act on their convictions. This needs to run throughout an organization and is not exclusive to management.”2. 最后,职业地位包含对职业标准的遵守。
很多律师通过在行业内外把自己塑造成一个具有良好职业道德的典范来找到自我价值。

Unit Seven ON HUMAN NATURE Frank and Lydia Hammer 我对人类的了解越多,对他们的期望就越低。和以前相比,我现在常常以较宽松的标准把一个人叫做好人。 ——塞缪尔·约翰逊博士
1 Human nature is the basis of character, the temperament and disposition; it is that indestructible matrix upon which the character is built, and whose shape it must take and keep throughout life. This we call a person's nature.
1 人性是性格、气质和性情的基础,性格正是基于这种牢不可破的基质之上的,它必须以这种基质的形式存在,并将它保留终生,这种基质,我们称之为一个人的本性。
2 The basic nature of human beings does not and cannot change. It is only the surface that is capable of alteration, improvement and refinement; we can alter only people's customs, manners, dress and habits. A study of history reveals that the people who walked this
earth in antiquity were moved by the same fundamental forces, were swayed by the same passions, and had the same aspirations as the men and women of today. The pursuit of happiness still engrosses mankind the world over.
2 人类的本性不会也不能改变,只有一些表面特征才会变化、改善和进一步提升;我们可以改变人们的风格、举止、衣着和习惯。一项历史研究表明,曾经行走在地球上的古人们和今天的男男女女们受着同样的基本力量驱使,被同样的激情左右并有着同样的抱负,时至今日,对幸福的追求仍然是全世界人类全身心投入的事业。
3 Moreover no one wishes his nature to change. One may covet the position of President or King, but would not change places with them unless, it meant the continuance of his own identify. Each man sees himself as unique, and so far as he is concerned the hub of the universe, different from any other individual. Apologies are in order when Mr. Smith is mistaken for Mr. Jones.
3 此外,没有人希望改变自己的本性,有人可能会觊觎总统或国王的职位,但不会和他们 交换位置,除非那意味着他自己身份的继续。每个人都把自己看成是独特个体,而且,就 他而言,他就是宇宙的中心,有别于其他任何人。如果有人把史密斯先生误认作琼斯先生, 这人就该道歉。
4 Every man unfolds a distinct character over which circumstances and education have only the most limited control. No two people will ever draw the same conclusions from the same experiences, but each must interpret events and fit them into the mosaic of his own life's pattern. Human nature is ever true itself, not to systems of faith or education. Each holds to the structure of the mold into which the soul was cast at the time of its individualization. The qualities born in one remain as potentials whether they have a chance to develop or not. Under pressure, or change of interest, they can partially or wholly disappear from view, tor considerable periods of time; but nothing can permanently modify them, nothing can obliterate them.
4 每个人都表现出一种与众不同的性格,而环境和教育对性格的影响都极其有限。两个人从相同的经历中也不会得出相同的结论,但是两个人会各自分析这些事件并将它们融合到自己丰富的生活模式中去。人性总是忠于它本身,而不受信仰或教育体制左右。一个人的个性和他独特的天性在出生时就已经形成了,而且不会改变。一个人与生俱来的品质,无论是否有机会发展,都保持为潜力。在遭受压力或兴趣变化的情况下,他们会部分或全部地消失相当一段时间,但是没有什么能永久地改变他们,也没有什么能把他们抹去。
5 The constancy of human nature is proverbial, as no one believes that a man can fundamentally change his nature. This is why it is so difficult for one who has acquired
an unsavory reputation to re-establish himself in public confidence. People know from experience that an individual who in one year displays knavish characteristics- seldom in the next becomes any different. Nor does a thief become a trustworthy employee, or a miser a philanthropist. Nor does a man change and become a liar, coward or traitor at fifty or sixty; if he is one then, he has been one ever since his character was formed. Big criminals are first little criminals, just as giant oaks are first little acorns.
5 人性的恒定性是众所周知的,因为没有人相信一个人能够从根本上改变他的本性。这就是为什么一个恶名远扬的人很难重建公众对他的信心。人们凭经验知道某一年中表现出无赖性格的人不太可能在第二年有任何改观。小偷也不会变成值得信赖的员工。吝啬鬼也不可能变成慈善家。而且,一个人不会在五六十岁的时候变成谎话精、懦夫或叛徒,如果那时候他是,那么早在他性格形成的时候他就已经是了。大罪犯最初都是小罪犯,正如大橡树最初都是小橡果。
6 Although man is potentially perfect he is far from being actually so. If he were actually perfect there would be nothing for preachers and humanitarians to do; no use for churches, schools, courts and prisons. Therefore while it is impossible to change human nature, it can be studied, controlled and directed, and this should be the supreme function of our religious, educational and social institutions.
6 尽管人类有完美的潜质,但事实上他远远没有达到完美。如果事实上他已经是完美的, 那么那些神父、教师和人道主义者便会无事可做;那些教堂、学校、法庭和监狱便会无所用处。因此虽然人性是不可能改变的,但是人们可以研究它、控制它和引导它。而且这应该是我们的宗教机构、教育机构和社会机构的最高职能。
7 Man is perfect as a seed is perfect, germinally. The spirit is perfect, but when it inhabits human structures, it participates in the imperfections of the later; and during its association with matter takes on the mortal weakness, desires and limitations. But the spirit, the inner man, remains untouched and undefiled by evil. Only the outer man- the personality and the physical body- becomes imperfect, due to ignorance, wrong thinking and violation of the law of being. The outer man, too, was originally perfect, but man has so desecrated and abused it that today it is a far cry from the original model.
