You should know better than to disturb others for your own amusement.” In the end George traded his CD’s for computer games software from his classmates.Unit 4

也许你羡慕我，因为我可以借助计算机在家里工作。我也这么想，互联网使我的工作方便多了。我可以通过电子邮件撰写，编辑并交出我的文章，在网上与我的同事聊天，与老板讨论工作。我用鼠标一击，马上就能拿到我要的一切资料，获得最新的消息。可是，另一方面，用网络通信有时也令人沮丧。系统有可能瘫痪，更糟的是，因为没有面对面交谈的情感提示，键出的词有时似乎很难理解。

Perhaps you envy me for being able to work from home on the computer.I agree that the Internet has made my job a lot easier.I can write，submit and edit articles via email, chat with my colleagues on line and discuss work with my boss.With a click of the mouse, I can get all the data I need and keep up with the latest news.But then, communicating through the Net can be frustrating at times.The system may crash.Worse still, without the emotional cues of face-to-face communication, the typed words sometimes seem difficult to interpret.Unit 5

众多事实证明这一说法：要想让自己很快从低落的（negative）情绪中解脱出来，你得让自己哭。你不必为“哭”而感到羞愧。忧虑和悲伤能随同眼泪一起流出身体。

南希·霍普金斯（Nancy Hopkins）是麻省理工学院（MIT）的生物学教授。她渴望知识，努力工作。然而，作为一名科学家，她不能不注意到校园里男女不平等（gender inequality）的各种表现。男女教授做同样的工作，但是到提升的时候，行政领导却很有选择性。具有讽刺意味的是在取得这么多的文化进步以后，妇女在高等学府里

Nancy Hopkins is a biology professor at MIT.She craves knowledge and works hard.However, as a scientist, she could not help noticing all kinds of indications of gender inequality on campus.Men and women professors did the same work, but when it came to promotion the administrators were rather selective.It was ironic that after so much cultural progress, women were still at a disadvantage in institutions of higher education.When her request for more lab space was refused, she knew she had to fight.So she gritted her teeth and complained to the President.The fight ended in victory and Nancy was converted into a gender-equality advocate.

Going for Broke

Matea Gold and David Ferrell 1 Rex Coile's life is a narrow box, so dark and confining he wonders how he got trapped inside, whether he'll ever get out.孤注一掷

马泰娅·戈尔德 戴维·费雷尔

雷克斯·科勒好像生活在一个狭窄的箱子里，伸手不见五指，空间又狭小，他不知道自己是怎么陷进去的，也不知道自己还能不能走出来。He never goes to the movies, never sees concerts, never lies on a sunny beach, never travels on vacation, never spends Christmas with his family.Instead, Rex shares floor space in cheap motels with other compulsive gamblers, comforting himself with delusional dreams of jackpots that will magically wipe away three decades of wreckage.He has lost his marriage, his home, his Cadillac, his clothes, his diamond ring.Not least of all, in the card clubs of Southern California, he has lost his pride.他从不看电影，从不听音乐会，从不躺在沙滩上晒太阳，从不在假日去旅游，从不和家人一起过圣诞节。相反，雷克斯在廉价汽车旅馆和别的嗜赌成癖的赌徒一起住，幻想着赢大钱，好魔术般地把30年的晦气厄运一扫而光。他失去了婚姻，失去了家，失去了卡迪拉克牌轿车，失去了衣物和钻戒。尤其是，在南加州的纸牌俱乐部，他还失去了自尊心。Rex no longer feels sorry for himself, not after a 29-year losing streak that has left him scrounging for table scraps to feed his habit.Still, he agonizes over what he has become at 54 and what he might have been.雷克斯不再为自己哀叹，他都输了29年了，输到了在赌桌上偷零钱以满足自己嗜好的地步。尽管如此，他还是对自己54岁时的境况深感痛苦，对自己未能成就可能会成就的事业而深感痛苦。Articulate, intellectual, he talks about existential philosophy, the writings of Camus and Sartre.He was once aneditor at Random House.His mind is so jam packed with tidbits about movies, television, baseball and history that card room regulars call him “ Rex Trivia,” a name he cherishes for the remnant of self-respect it gives him.“There's a lot of Rexes around these card rooms,” he says in a whisper of resignation and sadness.他能说会道，善于思考，喜谈存在主义哲学，谈加缪和萨特的作品。他曾是兰登出版社的编辑。他脑子里装满有关电影、电视、棒球和历史的趣闻，因此那些纸牌室的常客都叫他“趣闻大王雷克斯”，他珍惜这个带给自己些许自尊的名字。“这些纸牌室里有不少雷克斯，”他无奈而又悲伤地低声说道。And their numbers are soaring as gambling explodes across America, from the mega-resorts of Las Vegas to the gaming parlors of Indian reservations, from the riverboats along the Mississippi to the corner mini-marts selling lottery tickets.With nearly every state in the union now sanctioning some form of legalized gambling to raise revenues, evidence is mounting that society is paying a steep price, one that some researchers say must be confronted, if not reversed.美国各地赌博盛行，从拉斯维加斯的特大型度假胜地，到印第安人居留地的小赌场，从密西西比河上的内河船，到街角处出售彩票的便利店，赌博随处可见，因此赌徒人数正在剧增。由于全国几乎每个州都批准某种合法化的赌博形式以增加税收，越来越多的事实表明，整个社会正在付出巨大的代价，不少研究者指出，对此现象如果不能彻底改变，那就必须严肃面对。Never before have bettors blown so much money — a whopping $50.9 billion last year — five

times the amount lost in 1980.That's more than the public spent on movies, theme parks, recorded music and sporting events combined.A substantial share of those gambling losses — an estimated 30% to 40% — pours from the pockets and purses of chronic losers hooked on the adrenaline rush of risking their money, intoxicated by the fast action of gambling's incandescent world.赌徒以前从来不曾花费如此多的赌金—— 去年的赌输金额高达509亿美元，是1980年赌输金额的5倍，高出公众在电影、主题公园、唱片音乐以及运动项目等方面的消费总额。输掉的赌金中有相当一部分—— 约占30%－40%—— 是从那些常输的赌徒的钱包里掏出来的，赌博带来的兴奋令他们入迷，瞬息万变的赌博世界令他们如痴如醉。Studies place the total number of compulsive gamblers at about 4.4 million, about equal to the nation's ranks of hard-core drug addicts.Another 11 million, known as problem gamblers, teeter on the verge.Since 1990, the number of Gamblers Anonymous groups nationwide has doubled from about 600 to more than 1,200.据研究，嗜赌成瘾者的总数约有440万，与美国毒瘾大的瘾君子的人数大致相同。另有1100万所谓有问题的赌徒，已濒临深渊摇摇欲坠。自1990年以来，全国戒赌组织的总数翻了一番，从600个上升到1200多个。Compulsive gambling has been linked to child abuse, domestic violence, embezzlement, bogus insurance claims, bankruptcies, welfare fraud and a host of other social and criminal ills.The advent of Internet gambling could lure new legions into wagering beyond their means.嗜赌成瘾总是与虐待儿童、家庭暴力、盗用钱款、伪造保险索赔、破产、福利救济欺骗，以及其他许多社会问题与犯罪行为联系在一起。网上赌博的出现会诱使更多的人无节制地狂赌。Every once in a while, a case is so egregious it makes headlines: A 10-day-old baby girl in South Carolina dies after being left for nearly seven hours in a hot car while her mother plays video poker.A suburban Chicago woman is so desperate for a bankroll to gamble that she allegedly suffocates her 7-week-old daughter 11 days after obtaining a $200,000 life-insurance policy on the baby.每过一段时间，总有一则令人震惊的案子成为头条社会新闻：南卡罗来纳州一名出生10天的女婴被放在闷热的汽车里几乎达7个小时后死去，其间女婴的母亲在电脑上打扑克。芝加哥郊区一名妇女急于觅得赌资，据说，她在为她出生仅7周的女婴购买了20万美元的人寿保险后11天将其窒息致死。Science has begun to uncover clues to compulsive gambling — genetic predispositions that involve chemical receptors in the brain, the same pleasure pathways implicated in drug and alcohol addiction.But no amount of knowledge, no amount of enlightenment, makes the illness any less confounding, any less destructive.What the gamblers cannot understand about themselves is also well beyond the comprehension of family members, who struggle for normality in a world of deceit and madness.科学研究开始揭示形成嗜赌成癖恶习的线索—— 与大脑中的化学感受器有关的，即与嗜毒、嗜酒同一个快感途径有关的遗传特性。但无论对这一顽症有多少了解有多少认识，人们对它的困惑一点也没有减少，它的破坏性也一点也没有减少。赌徒不明白自己的地方也正是家人所难以理解的地方，他们在一个充满欺骗与疯狂的世界中苦苦追求正常生活。Money starts vanishing: $500 here, $200 there, $800 a couple of weeks later.Where is it? The answers come back vague, nonsensical.It's in the desk at work.A friend borrowed it.It got spent on family dinners, car repairs, loans to in-laws.Exasperated spouses play the sleuth，combing through pockets, wallets, purses, searching the car.Sometimes the incriminating evidence turns up — a racing form, lottery scratchers, a map to an Indian casino.Once the secret is uncovered, spouses usually fight the problem alone, bleeding inside, because the stories are too humiliating to share.钱突然就不知去向：这里用了500美元，那儿花了200美元，两三个星期之后又少了800美元。钱哪去了？回答很含糊，不知所云。在单位的办公桌抽屉里。朋友借去了。家人聚餐花了，修车用了，借给姻亲了。怒不可遏的配偶充当起侦探，把衣袋、皮夹子、钱包翻了个遍，还搜了汽车。有时犯罪证据会暴露—— 赛马小报、刮刮乐、去一家印第安赌场的地图。秘密一旦被揭穿，配偶通常都单独面对问题，独自承受心头巨痛，因为这种事太丢人，没法跟别人说。“Anybody who is living with a compulsive gambler is totally overwhelmed,” says Tom Tucker, president of the California Council on Problem Gambling.“They're steeped in anger, resentment, depression, confusion.None of their personal efforts will ever stop a person from their addiction.And they don't really see any hope because compulsive gambling in general is such an under-recognized illness.”

“与嗜赌成瘾者一起生活的人都会陷入绝望，”加利福尼亚问题赌博委员会主任汤姆·塔克说。“他们沉浸在愤怒、怨恨、沮丧、困惑之中。他们怎么苦心规劝也无法使浪子回头。他们真的看不到丝毫希望，因为人们通常并不真正懂得嗜赌成瘾的严重性。” One Los Angeles woman, whose husband's gambling was tearing at her sanity, says she slept with her fists so tightly clenched that her nails sliced into her palms.She had fantasies of death — first her own, thinking he'd feel sorry for her and stop gambling.Later, she harbored thoughts of turning her rage on her husband.She imagined getting a gun, hiding in the closet and blasting him out of her life.一个洛杉矶妇女，由于丈夫嗜赌成瘾，自己几乎神经崩溃。她说自己晚上睡觉时双手紧紧握成拳头，指甲把手掌都掐破了。她常常想到死—— 起初是想自己去死，觉得他会为自己伤心，会戒赌。后来，她又想到把怒气转到丈夫身上。她设想自己弄到一支枪，藏在壁橱里，一枪把他从自己的生活中扫出去。“The hurt was so bad I think I would have pulled the trigger,” she says.“There were times the pain was so much I thought being in jail, or being in the electric chair, would be less than this.”

“那种伤害太痛苦了，我想自己真的会扣动扳机，”她说。“有时真的痛苦不堪，觉得哪怕坐牢、上电椅，也不至于那么痛苦。” With drug or alcohol abusers, there is the hope of sobering up, an accomplishment in itself, no matter what problems may have accompanied their addictions.Compulsive gamblers often see no way to purge their urges when suffocating debts suggest only one answer: a hot streak(suicide?).David Phillips, a UC San Diego sociology professor, studied death records from 1982 to 1988 — before legalized gambling exploded across America — and found that people in Vegas, Atlantic City and other gambling meccas showed significantly higher suicide rates than people in non-gambling cities.吸毒者或酗酒者尚有清醒起来的希望，不管他们的毒瘾、酒瘾造成了什么麻烦，会清醒起来本身就是一项成就。嗜赌成癖的赌徒高筑的债台意味着只有一条出路：赢大奖(或自杀？)。这时，他们往往无法戒除赌瘾。加利福尼亚大学圣地亚哥分校社会学教授戴维·菲利普斯研究了1982－1988年间—— 合法赌博在美国蔓延之前—— 的死亡档案，发现拉斯维加斯、大西洋城和其他赌城的居民的自杀率明显高于没有赌场的城市的居民。Rex Trivia is not about to kill himself, but like most compulsive gamblers, he occasionally thinks

about it.Looking at him, it's hard to imagine he once had a promising future as a smart young New York book editor.His pale eyes are expressionless, his hair yellowish and brittle.In his fifties, his health is failing: emphysema, three lung collapses, a bad aorta, rotting teeth.趣闻大王雷克斯尚未打算自杀，但和众多嗜赌成瘾的赌徒一样，偶尔他会闪过这个念头。望着他，难以相信他曾经是一位前途无量、年轻聪颖的纽约书籍编辑。他那灰色的双眸呆滞无神，淡黄的头发显得枯萎。才50多岁，健康状况已经每况愈下：肺气肿、3次肺萎陷、主动脉有问题，牙齿也损坏了。His plunge has been so dizzying that at one point he agreed to aid another desperate gambler in a run of bank robberies — nine in all, throughout Los Angeles and Orange counties.When the FBI busted him in 1980, he had $50,000 in cash in a dresser drawer and $100,000 in traveler's checks in his refrigerator's vegetable crisper.Rex, who ended up doing a short stint in prison, hasn't seen that kind of money since.他一直狂赌，结果走投无路，竟然答应协助另一个因绝望而不顾一切的赌徒实施银行抢劫—— 在洛杉矶和桔县共抢了9家银行。1980年联邦调查局逮捕他时，他五斗橱抽屉里有50,000美元现金，还有100,000美元的旅行支票藏在冰箱的蔬菜保鲜格内。结果雷克斯在监狱服了一段时间刑，从此再也没见到过那么多的钱了。At 11 P.M.on a Tuesday night, with a bankroll of $55 — all he has — he is at a poker table in Gardena.With quick, nervous hands he stacks and unstacks his $1 chips.The stack dwindles.Down $30, he talks about leaving, getting some sleep.Midnight comes and goes.Rex starts winning.Three aces.Four threes.Chips pile up — $60, $70.“A shame to go when the cards are falling my way.” He checks the time: “I'll go at 2.Win, lose or draw.”

一个星期二晚上11点，他揣着55美元——这是他的全部家产—— 坐在了加德纳的一张牌桌前。他两手紧张地把那些1美元的筹码迅速地堆起又弄散。筹码渐渐少了。到剩下30美元时，他说要走了，去睡一会儿。午夜稍纵即逝。雷克斯开始赢了。三张A牌，四张3点。筹码多起来了—— 60美元，70美元。“我牌运那么好，怎么能走。”他看了看时间：“到2点就走，不管是输是赢还是平。” Fate, kismet, luck — the cards keep falling.At 2 A.M., Rex is up $97.He stands, leaves his chips on the table and goes out for a smoke.In the darkness at the edge of the parking lot, he loiters with other regulars, debating with himself whether to grab a bus and quit.命运，天命加牌运—— 一 路顺势。到了凌晨2点，雷克斯赢了97美元。他站起身，把筹码留在桌上，出去抽烟。他在停车场边上黑暗的地方与别的常客闲站着，心里盘算着要不要坐公共汽车回去算了。“I should go back in there and cash in and get out of here,” he says.“That's what I should do.”

“我该进去把筹码兑换成现金就离开这儿，”他说。“我该这么做。” A long pause.Crushing out his cigarette, Rex turns and heads back inside.He has made his decision.一阵长长的沉默。雷克斯摁灭烟蒂，转身走了进去。他作出了决定。

Amid the atmosphere of Thanksgiving George was immersed in the diary left to him by his father, who died at sea after he completed two successive trips around the world.The diary brought back every moment George had spent with his father and many of the specific things his father did on his behalf.George’s father used to impress on him the need to undergo all kinds of hardship in quest of excellence.Even today, George still remembers how his father would quote Aesop’s famous saying “Gratitude is the sign of noble souls” and tell him to accord the greatest importance to it.

You should know better than to disturb others for your own amusement.” In the end George traded his CD’s for computer games software from his classmates.Unit4

Unit1

十年之前，南希做了许许多多美国人梦寐以求的事。她辞去了经理职位，在邻近地区开了一家家用器具商店。像南希那样的人做出这种决定主要是想改善生活质量。然而，经营小本生意绝非易事。在失去稳定的收入后，南希不得不削减日常开支。有时候她甚至没有钱支付她所需要的种种保险的费用。幸运的是，通过自己的努力，她已经度过了最困难的时期。她决心继续追求她所向往的更加美好的生活。

A decade ago, Nancy did what so many Americans dream about.She quit an executive position and opened / set up a household equipment store in her neighborhood.People like Nancy made the decision primarily because of/owing to/due to their desire to improve the quality of their lives.But, to run a small business is by no means an easy job.Without her steady income, Nancy had to cut back on her daily expenses.Sometimes she did not even have the money to pay the premiums for the various kinds of insurance she needed.Once she could not even pick up the phone bill and had to ask her parents to loan her some money.Fortunately, through her own hard work, she has now got through the most difficult time.She is determined to continue pursuing her vision of a better life.Unit3

人们几乎无法将蓄意行窃的盗贼拒之门外。所能做的只是设法阻拦他片刻，从而使其暴露在巡警面前。常识告诉我们，光照是犯罪行为的障碍物。家门口必须安装一盏灯，并在晚间开着。如果你碰巧是最晚一个回家，别只关门而不上锁。如果你决定购买精密的电子报警系统，别忘了索要报警器的标志，并把它们张贴在窗户和门上。此外，你还可以讲报警系统连接到警署。

A burglary is reported every 15 seconds in the United States.Statistics show burglars en-tered more than 2 million homes last year.Actually it is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out.All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus exposing him to police patrols or those wandering around.Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity.A light should be fixed in the doorway and switched on at night.Believe it or not, some people, particularly children who happen to be the last to come in, leave their doors on the latch at night.Doors of hollow core, even when locked, are vulnerable to break-ins.Thus doors of solid core or steel are much preferred as they make it difficult for the burglar to pry open.If you decide to buy an alarm device, be sure to ask for its signs and put them up on both windows and doors.Finally, a word of warning —when you travel, make sure that

you have a trusted neighbor collect and keep all the deliveries of newspapers and mail until you return.This is because a collection of newspapers and mail on the front doorstep or in your mailbox is an advertisement that no one is home.Unit5

在感恩节的气氛中，乔治沉浸于阅读他父亲留给她的日记。他的父亲在连续两次完成环球旅行后在海上去世。这份日记使他回忆起自己与父亲度过的每一刻以及父亲为他做的许多具体事情。乔治的父亲过去经常像他强调必须经历各种艰难困苦去追求卓越。即使今天，他依然记得父亲如何引用“懂得感激是高尚者的标志”这句伊索名言来教导他要把懂得感激放在最重要的位置。

Amid the atmosphere of Thanksgiving, rather than joining his friends in celebration of the holiday, George was immersed in the diary left to him by his father, who died at sea after he completed two successive trips around the world.The diary brought back every moment George had spent with his father and many of the specific things his father did on his behalf.George's father used to impress on him the need to undergo all kinds of hardship in quest of excellence.He also taught him that nothing in the world could be taken for granted.Even today, George still remembers how his father would quote Aesop's famous saying “Gratitude is the sign of noble souls” and tell him to accord the greatest importance to it.Unit6

我们到处都能看到“抢眼”的青年艺术家。他们要么一年四季穿着破旧的牛仔裤；要么大冬天也打赤脚；要么饮酒过度；要么就是抱着创作一部杰作的幻想，实际上并不做任何创作的事。其实，他们中很多人只不过为了看上去像名艺术家，或为了同其他艺术家“保持一致”才这么做的。他们忘了，只有通过不懈的努力才能获得成功。Here and there we see young artists who stand out from other people.They may be in worn out jeans all the year round, or walk barefoot / in bare feet even in winter, or drink to excess, or cling to the fancy of creating a masterpiece without actually doing any creative work.In fact, many of them act like this just to look the part, or to be “in tune with” other artists.They have forgotten that only through persistent effort can one achieve success.
