第三篇:21世紀(jì)大學(xué)英語第四冊第二單元課文翻譯
A我們需要的感激A ?J ?克羅寧一個晴朗的下午,我在紐約上了一輛出租車。從司機(jī)的表情和他猛拉排擋的樣子中,我可以看出他很不高興。我問他是怎么回事?!拔彝耆欣碛缮鷼?,”他怒氣沖沖地說?!敖裉焐衔缥业囊粋€乘客把錢包忘在我車?yán)锪?。里面有?00塊錢。我花了一個多小時想方設(shè)法找那個家伙。最后我在他的賓館里找到了他。他拿了錢包,一聲不吭地瞪著眼看著我,好像我本來打算要偷他的錢包似的?!薄八麤]有給你酬金?”我大聲問。“一個子兒也沒有。但我要的不是錢??”他咕噥著,然后突然大聲說,“只要那個家伙說句什么??”因為他誠實的助人行為沒有得到感激,那位出租車司機(jī)一整天都悶悶不樂,而且我知道以后他在做類似的好事之前會仔細(xì)考慮一下了。這種對感激的需要是我們都能感受到的,而拒絕表示感謝則會大大扼殺善良與合作的精神。第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間,辛辛那提的一位母親收到他參軍的兒子一封來信,信中提到諾曼底一個村莊中的一位婦女在他受傷饑餓時將他帶到家中,幫他躲過了德國人的搜捕。不幸的是,后來那男孩在阿登高地的進(jìn)攻戰(zhàn)中陣亡了。然而,這位母親卻受到一種不可抗拒的愿望的驅(qū)使。她積蓄了兩年,穿過大西洋,找到了她兒子提到的那個村莊。經(jīng)過多次打聽之后,她找到了那位曾經(jīng)保護(hù)過她兒子的婦女——一位貧窮農(nóng)夫的妻子——將一個包裹硬塞進(jìn)她手里。那是她兒子在畢業(yè)典禮上獲得的一塊金表,是那個男孩曾經(jīng)擁有過的唯一真正有價值的東西。這位母親表示感激的舉動深深觸動了人們的心靈,在那個村莊內(nèi)外成為傳奇般的故事。它比出色的演講更能讓人培養(yǎng)起對美國人的好感。感激是對每一個無論大小的善行
優(yōu)雅地接受并表示欣賞的藝術(shù)。我們大多數(shù)人受到款待,接受禮物和明顯的好處時都不會忘記表示我們的愉悅之情,但即使在這種情況下我們也還能夠完善我們表示感激的方式,讓它盡可能的個人化和真誠。最近,我和妻子在意大利南部旅游時,我給康涅狄格州的一位朋友寄去了幾瓶令我們喜歡的當(dāng)?shù)丶厌?。那是件小小的禮物,然而令我們驚訝的是,我們收到的不是一封傳統(tǒng)的感謝信而是一張電唱機(jī)唱片。我們播放它時,聽到了我們的朋友在飯后的一段話,描述他和他的客人們?nèi)绾蜗矚g那酒,并感謝我們考慮得周到。有這件不同尋常的東西來證明別人欣賞我們的禮物真令人愉快。有時感激不僅僅是一件個人的事。我在麥吉爾大學(xué)學(xué)醫(yī)的兒子告訴我,有一位被送到蒙特利爾醫(yī)院的病人經(jīng)過輸血而獲救。康復(fù)以后他問:“我是否能找到那位獻(xiàn)血者的名字,向他表示感謝?”他被告知獻(xiàn)血者的名字是從來不公開的。出院幾個星期后他回來獻(xiàn)了一品脫血。從那以后他一次又一次地為了同一目的回來。當(dāng)一名外科醫(yī)生稱贊這種不留姓名的高尚行為時,他只是回答說:“有個我永遠(yuǎn)也不知道是誰的人為我這樣做了。我只是在說‘謝謝’?!备屑げ粌H可以是一種轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝的情緒,在有些情況下還可以是一種能持續(xù)終生的更新,想到這一點真令人感到欣慰。丈夫充滿感激地回想起妻子慷慨無私的行為,妻子從不忘記丈夫送給她的禮物,這些都大大有助于使家庭生活保持和諧。英國作家和博物學(xué)家W?H?赫德森曾經(jīng)寫道:“一天晚上,我?guī)б粋€朋友回家同我們一起吃了頓家常便飯。后來他對我說:‘你真幸運,你的妻子雖然身體不好還要照顧孩子,但菜燒得那么好吃。’那句贊美的話打開
了我的眼睛,它教會我要感謝妻子日復(fù)一日的、而一直被我習(xí)以為常的英雄行為?!备屑さ亩Y儀首先應(yīng)該在小事情上用得最多。送報的男孩、送牛奶的人、郵遞員、理發(fā)師、飯店里的女招待、開電梯的人——所有這些人都在以某種方式為我們服務(wù)。通過表示感謝我們可以使日常平淡的關(guān)系具有人情味,使單調(diào)的任務(wù)變得令人愉快。我的一位在倫敦當(dāng)公共汽車售票員的病人有一次對我吐露說,“有時我真厭倦了我的工作。人們抱怨,麻煩你,說車錢找得不對。但是有一位早晚乘我車的女士總是在我收她的車票時用一種特別友好的方式感謝我。我真希望她是代表所有的乘客在說話。這使我一直保持微笑?!卑⒅Z德?本涅特的一個出版商夸獎自己的秘書效率特高。一天,本涅特對她說:“你的老板說你效率極高。你的秘訣是什么?”“那不是我的秘訣,”秘書回答。“那是他的。”每次她為他做一件事,無論多小的事,他從未忘記表示感謝。因此,她工作一直非常努力。有些人不愿表達(dá)感激之情,因為他們覺得這不會受歡迎。我的一個病人在出院幾個星期后回到醫(yī)院來感謝他的護(hù)士?!拔覜]有更早地回來,”他解釋說,“是因為我猜想你們對于人們的感激一定厭煩得要命。”“正好相反,”她回答說,“我很高興你來。很少有人意識到我們多么需要鼓勵,我們從那些鼓勵我們的人身上獲得了多大的幫助。”我們所給予的感激永遠(yuǎn)不會過多。因為我們身邊的人在構(gòu)筑他們的人生哲學(xué)時所依據(jù)的正是這些微笑、我們所表示的感謝和我們表示欣賞的各種小小的示意動作。
B禮儀為什么是重要的朱迪思?馬丁 朱迪思?馬丁(生于1938年)是
《華盛頓郵報》的戲劇和電影評論家,她撰寫的聯(lián)合特寫專欄“禮儀小姐”通過稿件辛迪加在國際上多家報紙同時發(fā)表。她在哈佛大學(xué)的一次演講中闡述了她在《普通禮節(jié)》一書中的觀點,現(xiàn)轉(zhuǎn)載如下。如今的美國人錯誤地認(rèn)為只要具有個人美德就會毫不費力地、自然地產(chǎn)生可接受的社會行為。道德和禮節(jié)之間的區(qū)別已變得模糊了。大多數(shù)人以為,你只需要有一副好心腸,其余的事情便不用你費心了。你不必寫感謝信。這種對于人際關(guān)系的“自然的”態(tài)度認(rèn)定:熟知任何一個人就是愛他,人類唯一的問題只是溝通問題。這既否認(rèn)了人們可能被基本的、的確不可調(diào)和的差異——哲學(xué)的、政治的或者宗教的差異——所分隔,也假定了所有這樣的差異僅是誤解而已。許多形式的禮節(jié)恰恰是用來掩蓋那些由不可調(diào)和的分歧所造成的厭惡之情的。只要禮儀應(yīng)當(dāng)完全符合道德的想法存在,用來潤滑普通生活的應(yīng)酬話或慣例就會產(chǎn)生道德問題。過去人們講究義務(wù)性的正式拜訪,那個時候,“夫人不在家”的意思顯然就是“夫人不想見你,就像你并不想見她一樣,不過她注意到你已經(jīng)盡職了。”如今,我們從來不給自己暫時被別人聯(lián)系不上的便利,甚至對陌生人也不例外。有了電話和BP機(jī),人們使得自己能隨時被任何人所立即接通,而被認(rèn)為無禮的并不是打電話干擾別人的人,而是不肯聽電話的人。我收到許多記者的來信,他們認(rèn)為只有直言不諱才是誠實。他們感到氣憤,因為問他們“你好嗎?”的人們并不真正想聽他們說肚子不舒服。在寫信給那些他們并不想結(jié)交的人時,他們要求不以“你的忠實的”來簽署信件。讓人有點討厭的是,在說“早上好”之前得看一下天氣預(yù)報。那
些提倡實話實說的人在回答“我看上去好嗎?”之類漫不經(jīng)心的問題時會說實話,這也等于要求給粗野無禮以特別許可。禮儀標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化的缺乏導(dǎo)致了一個經(jīng)常是憤怒與混亂的社會,在那兒每個人都赤裸著他的道德觀,每一個細(xì)小的行為都被視作是一種道德觀的顯露。今天,每個人都聲稱不僅有權(quán)設(shè)計自己的禮節(jié),而且有權(quán)在別人不遵守這些禮節(jié)時發(fā)火,即使他并沒有費心讓別人了解過他的喜好。事實上,現(xiàn)在比任何時候更容易在無意中傷人。一位紳士為一位女士開門,因為他的母親告訴他女士們喜歡這樣的禮節(jié),但是這位女士卻轉(zhuǎn)過身來,對他現(xiàn)出一面蔑視的樣子,因為他侮辱了她作為女性的人格。一個年輕女子在一輛擁擠的公共汽車上給一位身體虛弱的年長男士讓座,而他厭惡地瞪了她一眼,因為她損傷了他作為男子的尊嚴(yán)。注意,這些人只是想表示友好;唯一的問題是他們在遵循不同的禮節(jié)體系而已。奇怪的是,現(xiàn)在比任何時候更難故意傷人。如果你說,“你面目可憎,我恨你,”那人可能會回答,“你正在氣頭上 ;我會等你感覺好一些?!苯忉屪约旱膭訖C(jī)能夠為所有的過失開脫,這種觀念也許在一個凌辱肆虐的世界里十分重要,在那兒,萬能的理由,“我心情不好”,赦免了一個人所有的義務(wù)或責(zé)任。有人認(rèn)為,人們無需借助全社會默認(rèn)的一種人為規(guī)范就可以“自然地”為人處事。這種想法就像認(rèn)為人們可以用一種沒有被普遍認(rèn)可的語法規(guī)則的語言來交際的想法一樣愚蠢。如同語言一樣,禮儀的準(zhǔn)則可以被運用得或嫻熟或拙劣,其目的可以是崇高的或邪惡的,其表達(dá)的觀念和感情可以多種多樣。如同語言一樣,禮儀不停地經(jīng)歷著緩慢的變化和適應(yīng)過程,但這些變化必須是全
球性的,而不是細(xì)微局部的。因為如果人人都即興創(chuàng)造自己的禮儀,那誰也不會理解另一個人行為的含義,結(jié)果就會造成社會的混亂和文明的終結(jié)。

中產(chǎn)階級當(dāng)然這樣認(rèn)為;勞動階級倒更有可能為這樣一個反抗權(quán)勢的角色拍手喝彩:他以頑皮的小拐杖使絆子,或把皮靴后跟對準(zhǔn)權(quán)勢者寬大的臀部一踢。

3.2 Summary of the text
Charlie Chaplin was born in London.However, he was much more popular in other countries than the land of his birth.Many English people considered Chaplin’s Tramp a little crude.However, in Modern Times in 1936, he made up a nonsense language with no known nationality and this helped to bring about his huge success.Chaplin was the kind of comic who used his physical senses to invent his art as he went along.The physical transformation of lifeless objects, plus his skill in acting became the secrets of Chaplin’s great comedy.Chaplin had a deep need to be loved and fortunately life eventually gave him stable happiness when he married Oona in 1942.3.3 Writing

Section B The Political Career of a Female Politician
1.Reading skill
1.1 Mixture of Fact and Opinion
As we learned in Unit 2, Book 1, Unit 3 and Unit 8, Book 2, and Unit 2, Book 3, developing the ability to read in a critical way involves the ability to distinguish between facts on the one hand and the writer’s opinion or interpretations on the other.It is always appreciated that we can keep facts and opinions apart, but writers often mix facts and opinions even within the same sentence, with some words representing facts and others representing opinions.1.2 Examples
Example 1:
But only Charlie Chaplin could have created the great comic character of “The Tramp”, the little man in rags who gave his creator permanent fame.(Para.1, Reading Passage A, Unit 2)
Even though the words only, great, permanent state opinions, the sentence states many facts―Charlie Chaplin, created, comic character, the Tramp, the little man in rags.Even more important, the main point of the sentence is to state the fact that Charlie Chaplin created “The Tramp”, which brought him fame.Thus the sentence is basically factual.Example 2:
This physical transformation, plus the skill with which he executed it again and again, are surely the secrets of Chaplin’s great comedy.(Para.6, Reading Passage A, Unit 2)
Even though the words surely, secrets, great state opinions, the sentence states many facts―physical transformation, the skill he executed with, again and again.The sentence is basically factual as it deals with Charlie Chaplin’s skills in performance.1.3 Text reading
