《誠信與和諧》
廣義上的和諧社會(huì)建設(shè)是指經(jīng)濟(jì)、政治、文化、社會(huì)四個(gè)方面協(xié)調(diào)發(fā)展、良性運(yùn)行。狹義上的和諧社會(huì)建設(shè)主要是指社會(huì)關(guān)系的和諧。無論是廣義上的和諧社會(huì)建設(shè)還是狹義上的和諧社會(huì)建設(shè),誠信都是各種經(jīng)濟(jì)、政治、社會(huì)關(guān)系協(xié)調(diào)發(fā)展、良性運(yùn)行的基礎(chǔ)。對社會(huì)成員來講,它是構(gòu)建和諧人際關(guān)系的基本素質(zhì);對全社會(huì)來講,它是社會(huì)良性運(yùn)行的價(jià)值取向;對市場來講,誠信是規(guī)范經(jīng)濟(jì)秩序、建立市場信用制度的道德保障;對政府來講,誠信是實(shí)現(xiàn)執(zhí)政為民、立黨為公的有效途徑。
一、誠信是社會(huì)人際關(guān)系和諧的重要準(zhǔn)則
人際關(guān)系的和諧是和諧社會(huì)建設(shè)的重要內(nèi)容。誠信友愛是人際關(guān)系和各種社會(huì)關(guān)系和諧的靈魂。中國的傳統(tǒng)文化充分重視誠信在人際關(guān)系中的價(jià)值。誠信,包括兩方面的含義,“誠”即真實(shí)不欺,既不自欺,也不欺人。朱熹云:“誠者何?不自欺,不忘之謂也”,“誠意,只是表里如一”。一個(gè)人只有做到表里如一,以誠相待,才能達(dá)到人內(nèi)心的和諧和人際關(guān)系的和諧。否則,欺名盜世,自欺欺人,會(huì)導(dǎo)致個(gè)人內(nèi)心的失調(diào)和人格的分裂,人際關(guān)系緊張,失去友情,成為孤家寡人?!靶拧?,主要指在與他人交往中應(yīng)講信用,遵守諾言??鬃訕O為重信,他強(qiáng)調(diào)做人要“言必信,信必果”、“與朋友交,言而有信”、“言而無信,不知其可也“。人若不講信用,就無法做人行事。在誠與信的關(guān)系中,誠是信產(chǎn)生的基礎(chǔ)和原因,自己以誠待人,必然獲得他人的信任。同時(shí),信是誠的具體表現(xiàn),信體現(xiàn)誠。在社會(huì)中生活,只有將自己的真實(shí)展示給他人,才能夠嬴得他人的信任,才能夠彼此信任。人們彼此信任才能夠真誠地進(jìn)行合作。個(gè)人在人際交往中講誠信,就會(huì)形成人際關(guān)系的良性循環(huán),正如管仲云:“信也者,民信之”。然而,當(dāng)前我國社會(huì)個(gè)人的誠信缺位表現(xiàn)在:借錢不還、偽造學(xué)歷和文憑、偽造票據(jù)和證件,剽竊他人學(xué)術(shù)成果,欺詐他人以謀取私利等等,這將影響人與人之間關(guān)系的和諧,影響社會(huì)公平的實(shí)現(xiàn)。因此,在全社會(huì)中,加強(qiáng)誠實(shí)守信的公民道德教育,是構(gòu)建和諧社會(huì)的重要內(nèi)容。因?yàn)槿穗H信任能增強(qiáng)全社會(huì)的凝聚力,促進(jìn)社會(huì)關(guān)系的和諧,保障社會(huì)的長治久安。
二、誠信是建立市場信用制度的道德保障
誠信一直是我國社會(huì)所推崇的優(yōu)良品格之一,在當(dāng)代,我們賦予誠信以更多的經(jīng)濟(jì)性的內(nèi)容。因?yàn)?,市場?jīng)濟(jì)條件下,誠信既是道德資源, 又是經(jīng)濟(jì)資源。隨著社會(huì)分工的細(xì)化和交換方式的發(fā)展,誠信也從道德追求進(jìn)入到物質(zhì)生活領(lǐng)域。也就是說,誠信社會(huì)的形成,其中極為重要的一方面是誠信經(jīng)濟(jì)的形成。所謂誠信經(jīng)濟(jì)是指誠信作為一種資本(即信用資本)來參與市場運(yùn)作的經(jīng)濟(jì),當(dāng)誠信資本能成功地實(shí)現(xiàn)其價(jià)值增殖時(shí),誠信經(jīng)濟(jì)即告產(chǎn)生。這種誠信理念推動(dòng)了經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展和社會(huì)進(jìn)步。
我國社會(huì)主義市場經(jīng)濟(jì)的建立加快了我國經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的速度和激發(fā)了人們走向富裕的動(dòng)力,但是另一方面經(jīng)濟(jì)主體的利益的多元化現(xiàn)象也日趨復(fù)雜,這些經(jīng)濟(jì)利益主體,在市場經(jīng)濟(jì)體制下,無論是企業(yè),還是個(gè)人,很顯然他們從事經(jīng)濟(jì)活動(dòng)的根本目的,就是盡可能多地獲取經(jīng)濟(jì)上的利益。因此,導(dǎo)致物質(zhì)主義、拜金主義在一定程度的盛行,人際互信互助的關(guān)系淡化,利益關(guān)系凸現(xiàn),由此造成誠信問題,一些欺詐失信的行為時(shí)有發(fā)生,其主要表現(xiàn)為:企業(yè)產(chǎn)品的假冒偽劣、摻雜使假、坑蒙拐騙、偷稅漏稅、三角債糾紛、財(cái)務(wù)假賬、偽造票據(jù)、金融詐騙、虛假廣告、假煙、假酒、假藥、假化肥、假種子、假幣、有毒大米、黑心棉等等。這類似于資本主義原始積累時(shí)期曾經(jīng)出現(xiàn)過的狀況,嚴(yán)重?cái)_亂正常經(jīng)濟(jì)秩序、損害了社會(huì)公
平和社會(huì)信任,使社會(huì)矛盾和社會(huì)沖突滋生。破壞了信用關(guān)系, 就會(huì)動(dòng)搖市場經(jīng)濟(jì)的基礎(chǔ), 就會(huì)帶來經(jīng)濟(jì)秩序的混亂。
誠信,就其作為社會(huì)的道德規(guī)范和個(gè)人的道德品質(zhì)而言,既是整個(gè)社會(huì)的信用制度對個(gè)人的道德要求的反映,也是社會(huì)信用制度在個(gè)人身上個(gè)性化的發(fā)展,每個(gè)社會(huì)成員的誠信品質(zhì),組成了社會(huì)信用制度的道德保障。講誠信則促進(jìn)市場經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展,失信則自然會(huì)阻礙市場經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展。信用一旦發(fā)生危機(jī),不僅會(huì)導(dǎo)致整個(gè)經(jīng)濟(jì)體系出現(xiàn)危機(jī),而且嚴(yán)重影響社會(huì)主義和諧社會(huì)的建設(shè)。只有市場主體都能自覺維護(hù)其信用制度,才能保證信用關(guān)系的穩(wěn)定性,減少信用風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。在此意義上可以說沒有誠信原則就沒有市場經(jīng)濟(jì)秩序,就沒有市場經(jīng)濟(jì)效益,也就沒有市場經(jīng)轉(zhuǎn)載請注明出處,謝謝!

第三篇:現(xiàn)代大學(xué)英語精讀
對《大學(xué)英語精讀》教材進(jìn)行評價(jià)
《現(xiàn)代大學(xué)英語精讀》是我們大家熟悉的一本教材。精讀課,也就是我們上的基礎(chǔ)英語課,是高校英語專業(yè)基礎(chǔ)階段的一門核心課程,是幫助學(xué)生掌握聽、說、讀、寫、譯等基本語言技能的基礎(chǔ)課。精讀教材主要是培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的語用能力,使學(xué)生能夠從書中有所感悟,把所學(xué)到的語言知識與生活實(shí)際結(jié)合起來,使學(xué)習(xí)過程生活化。該教材還能培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的英語思維能力和創(chuàng)新能力,而不是使學(xué)生拘泥于書本知識,主要的教學(xué)任務(wù)不是積累知識,而是開發(fā)學(xué)生的思維,該教材秉著以學(xué)生為中心的教學(xué)思想,教材的選材非常廣泛,符合學(xué)生興趣,是一本符合當(dāng)代大學(xué)生的優(yōu)秀教材。
一本好的教材有以下幾點(diǎn)特征;(1)、教學(xué)內(nèi)容和語言能夠反映快速變化的時(shí)代(2)、要處理好專業(yè)知識,語言訓(xùn)練和相關(guān)學(xué)科之間的關(guān)系(3)、教材不僅著眼于知識的傳授而要有助于學(xué)生的鑒賞批評能力、思維能力和創(chuàng)新能力的培養(yǎng)(4)、教學(xué)內(nèi)容要有較強(qiáng)的實(shí)用性和針對性。而《現(xiàn)代大學(xué)英語精讀》教材充分表現(xiàn)出一本好的教材的特點(diǎn),在英語教學(xué)中起著積極的作用,主要表現(xiàn)在以下幾個(gè)方面。
1、教材具有權(quán)威性。教材的權(quán)威性主要在于它努力體現(xiàn)新大綱的要求,任何教材的編寫都要相對應(yīng)的教學(xué)大綱作指導(dǎo),而衡量教材的好壞的一個(gè)重要標(biāo)準(zhǔn)就是看他是否符合大綱的具體要求。大學(xué)英語精讀教材是根據(jù)國家或地方教育部門頒發(fā)的教學(xué)大綱或課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)編寫的,能夠較好的體現(xiàn)教學(xué)大綱或課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)規(guī)定的教學(xué)目的、教學(xué)目標(biāo)、教學(xué)內(nèi)容以及教學(xué)方法,所以大學(xué)英語精讀教材完全符合大綱中有關(guān)教材的規(guī)定,有利于教學(xué)大綱和課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的有效實(shí)施。教材的權(quán)威性還取決于編寫人員的能力和素質(zhì)?,F(xiàn)代《 現(xiàn)代大學(xué)英語精讀》教材是北京外國語大學(xué)多名教授共同研究而成,這些教授具有豐富的教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)和深厚的語言功底,而且教材有國內(nèi)著名的外語出版社出版,還是普通高等教育“十五”國家級規(guī)劃教材。所以,現(xiàn)代大學(xué)英語精讀教材在一定程度上能夠保證教學(xué)內(nèi)容、教學(xué)過程和教學(xué)方法的科學(xué)性和合理性,從而保證教學(xué)質(zhì)量和教學(xué)效果。
2、教材具有系統(tǒng)性。從整體上看,教材體系完整,內(nèi)容豐富,有利于學(xué)生系統(tǒng)的學(xué)習(xí)語音、詞匯、語法等語言知識;材內(nèi)容從易到難,是一個(gè)逐步推進(jìn)的過程。第一年的教材主要任務(wù)是鞏固高中所學(xué)的內(nèi)容,這主要是考慮到大學(xué)新生需要時(shí)間來克服高中階段應(yīng)試教學(xué)的影響,要盡快幫助他們熟悉大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)方法,養(yǎng)成良好的學(xué)習(xí)習(xí)慣,糾正他們的語音語調(diào),鼓勵(lì)他們克服漢語方言對應(yīng)于發(fā)音的負(fù)面影響,同時(shí),要讓學(xué)生意識到學(xué)習(xí)英語的目的關(guān)鍵是運(yùn)用,而不是為了做題。第二年的教材,主要是知識積累,要運(yùn)用各種方法擴(kuò)大詞匯量,提高對語法的掌握和運(yùn)用能力,還要加強(qiáng)寫作和翻譯的訓(xùn)練,因?yàn)檫@兩種技能需要從實(shí)踐中得到提高,而不是拘泥于書本知識,第三年的教材主要是培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的閱讀水平,學(xué)生能夠獨(dú)立完成一個(gè)章節(jié)的閱讀,教材增加了閱讀的難度,這樣有助于提高學(xué)生的閱讀水平,第四年的精讀教材主要是使學(xué)生的聽、說、讀、寫、譯這五種能力得到全面的培養(yǎng),是學(xué)生對這幾種基本技能同時(shí)得到訓(xùn)練。
3、教材選文具有多樣性?!冬F(xiàn)代大學(xué)英語精讀》教材克服了傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)理念的缺陷,教材編寫體現(xiàn)了以應(yīng)用為本,聽、說、讀、寫、譯等多位一體的教材設(shè)計(jì)理念,把提高學(xué)生綜合運(yùn)用能力放在首位。該系類教材的指導(dǎo)思想就是在課堂上創(chuàng)造一個(gè)真實(shí)的語言教學(xué)環(huán)境,使學(xué)生得各種語言技能得到充分的訓(xùn)練。教材中覆蓋的詞匯量超過大學(xué)英語四六級的水平,在教材的使用中學(xué)生強(qiáng)化了對單詞的復(fù)現(xiàn)率,該教材詞匯豐富,詞匯重復(fù)出現(xiàn)有助于強(qiáng)化記憶。閱讀理解的任務(wù)活動(dòng)可以幫助學(xué)生檢測和深化對課文的理解,掌握各種閱讀技巧。在每一章節(jié)的聯(lián)系中還涉及了漢譯英和英譯漢的翻譯練習(xí),這樣有助于訓(xùn)練學(xué)生的翻譯能力。而且,教材中選取的文章題材多樣,風(fēng)格各異,內(nèi)容豐富,涉及了政治、經(jīng)濟(jì)、文化語言、科技、體育、風(fēng)俗人情等各方面。所以,該教材有利于學(xué)生更好地了解世界文化,培養(yǎng)跨文化意識和跨文化交際的能力。
總體來說,《現(xiàn)代大學(xué)英語精讀》教材合理的教學(xué)布局,能夠使學(xué)生的綜合能力得到全面的培養(yǎng),聽、說、讀、寫、譯等各項(xiàng)語言技能在教材中得到了綜合呈現(xiàn),該教材注重語言技能的培養(yǎng)、注重學(xué)生獨(dú)立學(xué)習(xí)能力的提高。但教材中也有一些不足之處,比如關(guān)于綜合技能的整體訓(xùn)練,以及學(xué)習(xí)技能和學(xué)習(xí)策略的建議有些不足。但整體上該教材是目前最適合大學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)的一本優(yōu)秀教材。
