3).The trademark was registered in accordance with the laws hitherto in force.这个商标是依据迄今有效的（in force）法律注册的。(hitherto，in accordance with)4).Oddly enough, many people volunteered to help organize the meeting, but only a few turned up.奇怪的是，许多人自愿帮助组织会议，但是只有少数几人到场。（Oddly enough，turned up）
5).The teacher’s affectionate words, along with his candid comments, changed the awy Mike perceived the the society and himself.老师那充满关爱的话语，以及坦诚的评价改变了迈克对于社会和他自己的看法，（affectionate，candid）
Passage translation: For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive.For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece.He eas a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid.Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel.He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture.What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.就我来说，我发现外表往往是靠不住的。譬如，要是你仅凭外表去判断诸如爱德华*海德*波顿这样的人，你就错了。外表上。伯顿像一个表里一致的人。他个子很小，满头白
发，有着一双温和蔚蓝的眼睛，文雅且坦率。然而，他原来却是一个十分的残忍。他侮辱和愚弄穷困潦倒的伦尼，让他去做那样的蠢事。更让人吃惊的是，他对伦尼的死全然冷漠无情。毫无疑问，他是个铁石心肠的家伙。
Unit 6 Cloze 1 Can you 1 switch off from the cares of life and relax?Many people today cannot.They feel instead that they are 2 obliged to be 3 on the go all the time.The pace of life seems to grow ever faster.As a result, feelings of stress are common as people struggle to 4 cope with what they see as a 5 shortage of time.Such wi despread feelings are in part caused by the 6 large quantity of information that comes 7 pouring in on us.“All men ,”said Aristotle,“ 8 by nature desire to know.” But it is no longer possible,as it was in the past ,for an individual to master the whole range of human knowledge.Instead,any individual,no matter how smart he is,can only command a 9 fraction of the total knowledge available.It may be argued that it is 10 futile to even attempt to do so.We should learn to set more realistic goals for ourselves if we are to hope to escape from the tyranny(专制）of time.Translation 1)They are exploring the new frontiers of medical science in an attempt to find remedies for incurable diseases / cures for diseases that are beyond remedy so far.他们正在探索医学研究新领域，试图治疗那些目前还无药可治 的疾病。（frontier，remedy）
2)Her unique teaching methods apart, Ms.Wilson, my math teacher, never tried to cram knowledge into my head.我的数学老师威尔逊女士不仅教学方法独特，而且她从不试图往我脑子里硬塞知识。（apart,cram）
3)The regular weather forecast by the Central TV Station keeps us up with the changes of weather where we go on a trip.中央电视台的定时天气预报使得我们旅行时不管走到哪儿都能知道天气变化。（keeps us up with，forecast）
4)The appalling explosion started a big fire and caused the partial collapse of the building.可怕的爆炸引起一场大火，并造成这栋大楼部分倒塌。（explosion，appalling）
5)In the modern world, there are more ways than ever to waste away time, and all kinds of distractions are eating into our precious time.在现代社会里，浪费时间的方式比以往任何时候都要多，各种各样的娱乐销售（distraction）正在吞噬我们宝贵的时间。（eating into，waste away）
Passage Translation Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more.Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well / good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.当今我们处于持续的压力之下，要工作更长的时间，要生产更多，拥有更多。许多人有一种错误的认识：幸福就在于拼命的干，使劲的赚。
许多妇女今天感到同样的压力，要工作，要出人头地，而与此同时，又要养育子女，承担起家庭责任的负担。
研究表明，工作狂（workaholism）往往使我们与家人的关系疏远。它会迫使我们长时间辛苦劳作，仅留微乎其微的时间与我们的亲人呆在一起，交流感情。家庭成员间的亲密关系在此过程中注定要消亡，
第三篇：研究生英语课后翻译中英文对照(最终稿)
Unit1 1.“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.”（第一章 P29 第一段）
“一年365 天，一周7 天，一天24 小时，生意始终在进行，那意味着一年365 天，一周7 天，一天24 小时，竞争也同样在进行，”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，你不仅要把所有能支持公司快速运转的功能都调动起来，而且还得知道如何决定‘目的地’是哪里。这样，不仅对那些行动快速的人们，也对那些思维敏捷，并有勇气按自己的想法行事的人们都提出了要求。这需要全公司各部门的运作，而不仅仅是管理部门的工作。
2.Lastly, professional status encompasses adherence to ethical standards.Most lawyers find self worth in setting an example—both within the profession and within the larger society—as ethical actors.When management affirms the special respect due to lawyers who act with the utmost integrity and civility in all of their professional dealings, it provides yet another form of compensation.（第一章）
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。对那些在所有职业行为中都表现出极度正直和谦逊有礼的律师们来说，当管理阶层对他们理应受到的特别尊重表示肯定时，便又获得了另一种形式的精神报酬。
Unit2 3.The decline goes well beyond recent surveys that show growing complaints about mediocre quality and high prices—no small concern in a country where tourisme gastronomique earned 18 billion euros in 2002, a quarter of all tourist revenues.More and more restaurateurs say that government tax and economic policies are limiting their profits, and thereby hurting their capacity to invest and hire more staff.They have become ensnarred in the red tape for which France is infamous—not to mention edicts from Brussels that affect everything from sales taxes to the bacteria in the Brie.最近的调查显示越来越多的人抱怨饭菜质量平平，价格昂贵，而法国烹饪的衰落还不止于此。这在法国可不是个小问题，要知道2002年美食旅游为法国创收180 亿欧元，占到全部旅游收入的1/4。越来越多的餐馆老板反映政府的税收和经济政策限制了他们的利润，也就影响了他们投资和雇佣更多人手的能力。束缚他们手脚的是令法国不那么光彩的繁琐拖拉的公事程序，更不要说那些来自欧盟的规定，从销售税到布里乳酪里含细菌的指标统统都在严格的掌控之中。（第二章）
4.Zhejiang cuisine is light and exquisite, and is typical of food from along the lower Yangtze River.One famous dish is West Lake Vinegar Fish, which looks pretty and has the delicate refreshing flavors of nature.Many Chinese restaurants in China, as well as other parts of the world, serve this dish, but often the flavor is less authentic compared to that found in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang Province, which has unique access to the fish and water of West Lake.（第二章）
浙江菜口味清淡，精致玲珑，是长江下游区域菜肴的代表。西湖醋鱼是其中的一道名菜。这道菜鲜美，酥嫩，带着自然的清香。中国乃至世界各地的中餐馆大都能找得到这道菜，但口味往往不及在浙江杭州吃得那般纯正。因为只有杭州拥有来自西湖的鱼和水。
Unit3 5.Whatever the explanation, the idea of a work-life balance is a staple of European discourse, studied in think tanks, mulled over by policymakers.In the US, the term, when it‟s used at all, is said with the sort of sneer reserved for those who eat quiche.But it might still catch on.When Bill Keller was named executive editor of the New York Times last week, he encouraged the staff to do “a little more savoring” of life, spending time with their families or viewing art.（第三章）
不管如何解释，工作与生活的平衡总是欧洲人的主要谈资，同时也是智囊团和政策制定者研究和考虑的主题。在美国，人们使用这个说法时总是带着几分针对那些吃蛋奶火腿馅饼的有闲人士才会表现出来的冷嘲热讽的态度。但是，它可能还是会流行起来的。时任《纽约时报》执行主编的比尔・凯勒曾鼓励员工们要给生活增加一些色彩，多陪陪家人或去欣赏艺术。
6.P.L.Trav ers, the author of the Mary Poppins books, put it best when she wrote, “You do not chop off a section of your imaginative substance and make a book specifically for children, for— if you are honest—you have, in fact, no idea where childhood ends and maturity begins.It is all endless and all one.” There is plenty for children and adults to enjoy in Rowling‟s books, starting with their language.Her prose may be unadorned, but her way with naming people and things reveals a quirky and original talent.（第三章）
《欢乐满人间》的作者帕梅拉·林登·特拉弗斯概括得精辟之极。她写到，“你不能把你想象的东西砍掉一部分然后写成一本专给孩子看的书，坦白地说，因为事实上你根本无从知道童年究竟是什么时候结束的而成人期又是什么时候开始的。它们互相连接、浑然一体。”在罗琳的书中，从语言开始，就有足够多的让大人和孩子都喜欢的东西。也许她的文风朴实，但是她给人和物命名的方式显示了独特的原创才能。
Unit4 7.7.Much research shows that the quality of care infants receice affects how they later get along with friends,how well they do in school,how they react to new and possibly stressful situations,and how they form and maintain loving relationships as adults.It is for these reasons that people‟s early intimate relationships within their family of origin are so critical.Children who are raised in impersonal environments(orphanages,some foster homes,or unloving families)show emotional and social underdevelopment,language and motor skills retardation,and mental health problems.很多研究发现婴儿获得关爱的质量会影响到他们以后的交友，在学校的表现，如何应对陌生的或可能充满压力的情况，以及他们成年后如何建立并且维系情感连系。正是因为这些原因，人们与家庭成员的早期亲密关系才如此至关重要。在人情冷漠的环境中(如孤儿院，某些寄养家庭，或缺乏关爱的家庭)长大的孩子会出现情感和社会性发育不良，语言和运动技能迟缓，以及精神健康问题。（第四章 P119 第一段）
8.What attracts individuals to each other in the first place?Many people believe that “there‟s one person out there that one is meant for” and that destiny will bring them
together.Such beliefs are romantic but unrealistic.Empirical studies show that cultural norms and values,not fate,bring people together.We will never meet millions of potential lovers because they are”filtered out”by formal or informal rules on partner eligibility due to factors such as age,race,distance,social class,religion,sexual orientation,health,or physical appearance.一开始让人相互吸引的是什么?许多人相信“世上有一个人是你为之而生的”，而且命运会将你俩带到一起。这样的想法很浪漫却不现实。实证研究发现，是文化标准和价值观而非命运，将人们连系在一起。我们错过了成千上万的可能的爱人，因为他们早就被正式的或非正式的挑选理想爱人的准则筛选出局，这些准则包括年龄、种族、地域、社会阶层、宗教、性倾向、健康状况或外表。（第四章 P119 第2段）
Unit5 9.Yoga routines can take anywhere from 20 minutes to two or more hours, with one hour being a good time investment to perform a sequence of postures and a meditation.Some yoga routines, depending on the teacher and school, can be as strenuous as the most difficult workout, and some routines merely stretch and align the body while the breath and heart rate are kept slow and steady.Yoga achieves its best results when it is practiced as a daily discipline, and yoga can be a life-long exercise routine, offering deeper and more challenging positions as a practitioner becomes more adept.The basic positions can increase a person‟s strength, flexibility and sense of well-being almost immediately, but it can take years to perfect and deepen them, which is an appealing and stimulating aspect of yoga for many.（第五章 P151）
做瑜伽没有场地的限制，一套瑜伽动作通常需要20 分钟到两个小时或者更多的时间，而一个小时左右的时间则是一系列动作和冥想的最佳选择。根据瑜伽师和学派的不同，一些瑜伽动作做起来辛苦异常，而另一些却只是在呼吸和心跳平稳的情况下调整和伸展肢体。每天练习瑜伽会达到最好的效果，随着动作越来越熟练，你就可以加大强度和难度这样瑜伽就能成为你相伴终生的日常锻炼方式了。练习基础的瑜伽动作即可收到增强力量，改善柔韧性并使人感到舒适的效果，但要想达到完美和高深的境界还是需要日积月累的练习，这也是瑜伽吸引人的地方之一。
Unit6 10.I mention these events merely to show that New York is peculiarly constructed to absorb almost anything that comes along(whether 1000-foot liner out of the East or a 20000-man convention out of the West)without inflicting;so that event is,in a sense,optional,and the inhabitant is in the happy position of being able to choose his spectacle and so conserve his soul.我提到这些，仅仅为了表明纽约城是一座建构奇特的城市，这里发生的事件包罗万象(城东1,000英尺长的班轮也好，城西2万人的集会也罢)，但种种事件却又未被强加到每个居民身上。因此，从某种意义上说，每个事件都有可供选择的余地，居民们大可随心所欲地选择心仪的场景来体味，保护其灵魂免受侵害。（第六章 P185第1段）
11.In most metropolises,small and large,the choice is often not with the individual at all.He is thrown to the Lions.The Lions are overwhelming;the event is unavoidable.A cornice falls,that hits every New Yorker on the head,every last man in town,I sometimes think that the only event that hits every citizen on the head,every last man in town.I sometimes think that the only event that hits every New Yorker on the head
is the annual St.Patrick‟s Day parade,which is fairly penetrating--the Irish are a hard race to tune out,there are 500000 of them in residence,and they have the police force right in the family.在许多都市里，无论是大都会还是小城市，个人往往没有这种选择的自由。他必然会同狮子会会员们狭路相逢。狮子会会员无处不在，各种事件避无可避。一截房檐从天而降，必然会砸到每个市民头上，无一幸免。我有时想，能够砸到每个纽约人头上的事件恐怕只有一年一度的圣帕特里克节游行，其影响之广，可谓无孔不入——爱尔兰是一个不可小觑的民族，纽约城中居住的爱尔兰人有50万之众，他们还拥有自己的武装力量。（第六章 P185第二段）
Unit 7
12.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 because 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.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。一个人也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。
13.I recalled his high spirits,his vitality,his confidence in the future,and disinterestedness.It was impossible that it was the same man ,and yet I was sure of it.I stood up,paid for my drink ,and went out into the plaza to find him,My thoughts were in a turmoil.I was aghast.I could never have imagined that he was reduced to this frightful misery.I asked myself what had happened.What hopes deferred had broken his spirit,what disappointments shattered him,and what lost illusions ground him to the dust?I ask myself if nothing could be done,I walked round the plaza.我回想起他那时高涨的情绪、他的活力、他对未来的信心，还有他的冷漠。这两个人不可能是同一个人，然而我确信就是他。我起身付了账，走进广场去找他。我的思绪一片混乱。我感到惊恐。我绝不会想到他已经沦落到这般可怕的悲惨境地。我问自己发生了什么事，是什么样的希望迟迟不能实现令他伤心，是什么样的失意将他击垮，是什么样的幻想破灭将他逼向屈辱？我问自己是否已经无计可施。我绕着广场走着。
Unit8 14.Sometimes, psychographic profiles can be quite detailed.Take the Accord.Honda Motor reports that the car's owners like to vacuum their garages.You can't say they're not clean.（第八章 P243 第一段）
有时候，心理剖析可以非常详细。以雅阁为例，本田汽车报告称，雅阁汽车的主人喜
欢用吸尘器打扫他们的车库，你不能说他们不干净。
15.We also found that sometimes messages sent out by seemingly similar cars can be quite different.Consider two premier British luxury sedans: Bentley's Arnage and Rolls' Phantom.Both are stately and fast, but each attracts a different kind of customer.（第八章 P243 第二段）
我们还发现，有时看上去类似的汽车可能传达了完全不同的信息，比如英国最好的两种豪华轿车：宾利公司的雅致和劳斯莱斯公司的幻影，两者都高贵而快捷，但他们却各自吸引了不同类型的客户群。
16.The Bentley buyer wants an understated heirloom that he or she can pass down through the generations;over 80% of all Bentleys ever made are still on the road today.The Phantom buyer, on the other hand, is looking for instant recognition.The car has a presence that really demands attention wherever it goes.（第八章 P243 第三段）
宾利的买主想要的是低调的，但可以世代相传的传家宝；有史以来所生产的宾利，80%以上至今仍跑在路上。然而，欢迎的买家却期盼一夜成名，汽车的外表使得它所到之处无不引人注目。
Unit 9
17.Opened in 1980,the House of the Future was designed to a showcase for state-of-the-art electronic innovations.The structure itself is a 3100 square foot,copper-trimmed prism rising out of the Arizona desert.Computer-controlled solar collectors on the south face of the house provide 75% of the heating and 95% of the domestic hot water needs.Inside,the house is as startling as it is outside.For the moment,the only permanent resident of the House of the Future is the computer.That monotone voice which greets visitors belongs to unique ,Motorola-designed five-unit computer network which serves as the nerve center of the building.“未来之宅”于1980 年对外开放，的设计是为了展示电子改革的现代技术水平。这一铜支架多棱体建筑占地3100平方英尺，高高耸立在亚利桑那沙漠之上。房子的南面布满了电脑控制的太阳能采集装置，室内75% 的供暖和95% 的热水所需能量由它们供给。房子内部像它的外表一样令人炫目。目前，“未来之宅”里唯一的常住户是一台计算机。参观者所听到的单调的欢迎声就来自于这台独一无二的机器，它由摩托罗拉公司设计，由五台计算机连成网络，它是这座建筑物的中枢神经。

Study after study has uncovered the fact that there is a close correlation between food and a number of chronic diseases.For example ,a decreased risk of certain chronic diseases is associated with an increased consumption of plant—based foods.Therefore ,in the past decade ,the American Dietetic Association has urged Americans to reduce their intake of animal fats ,and to boost consumption of fruits ,vegetables ,and grains.Meanwhile ,the United States Department of Agriculture has released a document containing the food guide pyramid ,which encourages a minimum of three vegetable and two fruit servings per day.However ,many Americans still don′t meet／listen to these recommendations.Unit 3
The new president of our university disapproves of the idea that we should be allowed to tell lies under certain circumstances.He calls on all the teachers and students of the university to conduct themselves with honesty and never tell lies.He believes that if people get used to telling any kind of lie, they will indulge themselves and eventually be stuck with the bad habit.To tell or not to tell a lie can sometimes become a very sticky issue, but our president is adamant that nobody in the world of education should dodge the responsibility of attaching primary importance to honesty while teaching the young.I agree with him, What about you?
Unit4
When I enrolled in Math202, I anticipated difficulties because I was not well founded in math in high school.Professor Richardson, a fine specimen of an old-fashioned gentleman, formally dressed, soft-spoken, and cordial, taught the course to his students.However, when it came to academic matters, he was by no means an easy person.Before he started his lecture, he discoursed enthusiastically on the importance of working in an orderly fashion, of being thoroughly prepared before each class, of being steadfast in one’s efforts, and of not being content with what you have learned.There was no doubt that teaching math was something sacred to him.His attitude towards work was infectious, and by and by I became an ardent math lover, too.Unit5
Robert E Lee was born into a distinguished Virginia family in 1807.Not only was Lee’s fathering a personal friend of George Washington, but he served 3 terms as governor of Virginia.Unfortunately, his life had been plagued by poor financial investments.He was jailed twice for unpaid debts and in the end was forced to flee the country.Lee’s mother was the dominant force in shaping Lee’s personality.Against the poignant failure of her husband, she was determined that the tragedy should not be repeated in the life of her children.Self-control, tenacity, a sense of obligation and an indomitable spirit were the virtues she taught Lee.In 1825, with an aspiration to win back the family honor, Lee began studying at West Point Military Academy.This began a new chapter of his life.Over the four years, he strictly adhered to the academy’s code of conduct and consistently finished near the top of every course.Unit6
Henry, a frail-looking man of fifty, was older than his robust wife Mary by 20 years.Everyone assumed that she would outlive him.So you can imagine our surprise when Henry came to the office in mourning after a week of absence and told us about the sudden and unexpected death of his wife.No one, including Henry himself, had foreseen that things would turn out this way.The tragedy filled Henry’s heart with deep grief, and for several weeks, he looked greatly distressed and became a completely changed person.He even speculated whether it would be better for him to rejoin his wife in paradise.Though each of us expressed our deep sympathy, no one thought it appropriate to intrude upon his family uninvited, in consideration of their need for need for peace and privacy at such a moment.

Unit1 攻势已经持续了三天，但是我们并没有取得多少进展。师长（division commander）命令我们营（battalion）夜晚绕道敌人后方发起突然袭击。然而，要绕到敌人后方，我们必须越过一片沼泽地（marshland）。我们很多人担心会陷入泥潭之中。我们营长决定冒一下险。所幸由于寒冷天气沼泽地都结上了冰，我们于天亮前到达目的地并从敌人后方发起进攻。这一下扭转了战局。敌人没有戒备，不久便投降了。

汽车自从发明以来使交通运输发生了革命性的变化，永远地改变了人们的生活、旅行和办事的方式。但另一方面，也带来了危害，尤其是公路死亡事故。然而，现今由于计算机技术和电子传感器的使用，有可能消除发生的大多数交通事故。例如，装在你汽车上的电子传感器能检测到空气中的酒精雾汽并拒绝启动引擎。同样，传感器还能通过接受在轨道上运行的卫星发出的信号检测路况并大大减少你陷入交通拥堵的可能性。

Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business.On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities.However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents.For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine.They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce your chance of getting stuck in traffic jam.Unit4 全球化对中国年轻人具有重大影响。例如，年轻的农民正在大规模流向城市寻找工作。而对那些想出国深造或进外企工作的年轻人说，英语变得越来越重要。另外一方面，许多海外学子近年来回归祖国，因为他们看好中国经济的长期增长前景。因特网加强了中国年轻人与其他地方年轻人的联系。他们跟踪最新潮流，模仿外国时尚。他们中的一些人似乎不在乎中国的传统美德，更不要说发扬光大，这使得有人忧虑中国传统文化会不会有一天终将消失。
Aspire
considerable economy elsewhere growth increasingly let alone On a large scale outlook strengthen vanish
Globalization has great implications for young Chinese.For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs.And for those who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprise, English has become increasingly important.At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long run growth for the Chinese economy.The internet has strengthened the links between the Chinese young people and those elsewhere.They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions.Some of them don’t seem to care traditional Chinese culture, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Unit5 就我来说，我发现外表往往是靠不住的。譬如，要是你仅凭外表去判断诸如爱德华-海德-伯顿这样的人，你就错了。外表上，伯顿像一个表里一致的人。他个子很小，满头白发，有着一双温和、蔚蓝的眼镜，文雅且坦率。然而，他原来却是十分的残忍。他侮辱和愚弄穷困潦倒的伦尼，让他去做那样的蠢事。更让人吃惊的是，他对伦尼的死全然冷漠无情。毫无疑问，他是一个铁石心肠的家伙。
For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive.For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece.He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid.Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel.He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture.What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit 6当今我们处于持续的压力之下，要工作更长的时间，要生产更多，拥有更多。许多人有一种错误的认识：幸福就在于拼命地干，使劲地赚。
许多妇女今天感到同样的压力，要工作，要出人头地，而与此同时，又要养育子女，承担起家庭责任的负担。
研究表明，工作狂往往使我们与家人的关系疏远。它迫使我们长时间幸苦劳作，仅留微乎其微的时间与我们的亲人呆在一起、交流感情。家庭成员间的亲密关系在此过程中注定要消亡。
Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more.Lots of people hole the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead, and at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.Unit 7 今天，在地震袭击我的家乡很久以后，我仍然能历历在目地回想起我与父母亲从家里逃出来时所看到的情景。马路对面的房子就在我们面前倒塌，瓦砾四处乱飞，呛人的尘云遮住了太阳。惊恐的人们哭叫着四处奔跑。
如今那一场悲惨事件已经过去很多年，旧城的废墟上已经耸立起一座新城。人们在小镇的广场上建立了一座纪念碑，以怀念那些灾难中的死者。看来人们心目中的创伤已愈合，但对此事的记忆将不会消失。
Today, long after the earthquake hit my tome-town, I can still recall, in crystal detail, what I saw as I ran out of my home with my parents.The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of choking dust blotted out the sun.Horror-stricken people ran in all directions, crying and screaming.Now, many years after that tragic event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the old one.In the town square, a memorial has been build to remember those killed in the disaster.It seems the wounds in people’s hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.
