第五篇:新视野大学英语第一册Unit 5课文翻译
获得性免疫缺陷综合征(艾滋病)是20世纪70年代末在美国发现的。自那时以来,艾滋病已夺走了20.4万多美国人的生命——其中有一半是在过去几年中丧生的。此外,在100万感染艾滋病病毒的人当中有18.5万人也将在一年内死亡。
被诊断感染艾滋病病毒的人当中有一半是黑人和来自拉丁美洲的美国人。南部农村社区的妇女和青年是数量增长最快的艾滋病患者群体。
尽管数量大得惊人,但联邦和各州政府在实施防止艾滋病蔓延的计划方面行动迟缓。鉴于政府行动不力,许多地方性组织便应运而生了。
南卡罗来纳艾滋病教育网络机构成立于1985年,目的在于防止艾滋病病例数量的增加。和许多地方性组织一样,该组织缺乏资金,这迫使它创造性地使用其资源。为接触更多的社区居民,有些艾滋病教育计划在美发店实施。
美发店老板在顾客进来时向他们散发艾滋病资料,在他们等着头发晾干时,向他们放映有关预防艾滋病的录像片。她还在店里放一些书籍和其他出版物,供顾客等候时阅读。她在工作的同时使许许多多人受到了教育,这一点着实让人赞叹。
最近,这一教育网络机构已开始帮助整个美国东南部的发型设计师们在他们的美发店里实施类似计划。他们也是向学校、社区组织和教堂传播信息的有价值的资源。
这一组织还总结出了一些对其他从事同样工作的团体颇有裨益的方法。尽管还没有一种能战胜艾滋病的方法,但这一网络机构在与艾滋病斗争中获得了以下经验:
以社区居民能接受的方式与他们交谈。
许多社区的居民受教育比例低,这使得向他们散发艾滋病资料、希望他们自己阅读这一做法不切实际。为解决这一问题,需要请一些善于绘画的人来编写适合于教育程度低的居民阅读的艾滋病教育图书。
这些书采用简单的、手工绘制的“忧伤的脸”和“幸福的脸”等图画,说明防止感染艾滋病的方法。这些书也展示一些看上去同那些需要接受教育的人很相似的图片。当居民们看到熟悉的面孔和能够理解的语言时,就会发表更多的议论和看法。这样一来,这些书在使用它们的社区里所产生的影响要比政府出版的书产生的影响大,而政府出版的书籍成本要高出数千美元。
培训青少年去教育自己的同龄人。
由于艾滋病在南部农村地区的青少年当中传播速度最快,发型设计师们设立了一个称为“艾滋病克星”的项目,培训8到26岁的青少年,让他们到社区给同龄人上“艾滋病101”课程。这些青少年使这门课程变得简单易学,在向他们的同龄朋友解释感染艾滋病的危险性时,他们干得比成年人出色得多。他们在帮助父母理解孩子所经受的各种来自于同龄人的压力方面也起着重要作用。
对“存在危险”这一概念重新界定,从而把不同背景、不同婚姻状况的妇女都包括进去。
一位妇女的医生对她说她不存在染上艾滋病的危险,因为她已经结婚,而且不吸毒。这类错误观念困扰着医疗机构。根据疾病控制中心的预测,女性将占感染艾滋病病毒人数的80%。发型设计师们也强调每个人都存在着危险,所以我们每个人都有权保护自己——无论结婚与否。
这些经验不是解决艾滋病危机的唯一方法,但在找到治疗艾滋病的方法之前,教育不失为预防感染艾滋病病毒的唯一安全措施。
和以前其他传染病不同,艾滋病这一传染性疾病有可能夺去一代人的生命,从而使另一代人失去双亲。因而我们决不能让文化、种族和社会的障碍阻止我们专心从事我们必须做的工作。我们也不能因为政府工作效率低而放弃我们的工作。这是一场不宣而战的战争,我们每个人都必须参加,只有这样我们才能取得胜利。我们绝对不能因为谈论艾滋病会使我们感到难受,而听任人们继续被艾滋病夺去生命。每个人都必须成为教育者,必须学会生存。
