How to Read Effectively
如何有效进行阅读
When a teacher or lecturer recommends a student to read a book, it is usually for a particular purpose. 当老师或演讲人向学生推荐某本书时，通常有特定的目的。In many cases, the teacher doesn't suggest that the whole book should be read.许多时候，老师并不建议读完整本书。In fact, he may just refer to a few pages which have a direct bearing on the matter being discussed.事实上，他们也许仅仅倾向于读与讨论的内容有关的那几页。
Unfortunately, when many students pick up a book to read they tend to have no particular purpose in mind other than simply to "read the book".遗憾的是，当许多学生拿起一本书要读的时候，除了只是读这本书外，对于“读此书的目的是什么”他们经常心中无数。Often they open the book and start reading, page by page, line by line, word by word;他们常常是一打开书就一页一页、逐句逐字很仔细地读。in other words, slowly and in great detail. 换言之，他们读得又慢又仔细。The result is that students frequently don't have an overall view of what they are reading; 这样阅读的结果就是，学生们常常对他们所读的东西没有全面的了解。also, they tend to forget fairly soon what they've been reading. 并且，对于所读的东西很快就会忘掉。
Students can make their reading much more effective by adopting a strategy aimed at helping them to understand and to remember what they read. 学生如果遵照一个策略就可以更有效地提高阅读效果。该策略旨在帮助学生理解和记住所读的材料。Firstly, they should decide precisely why they're reading the book perhaps it's to find some information that'll answer a question; 首先，他们应该很明确为什么要读这本书，也许是要找到解决某个问题的资料。perhaps it's to understand a difficult idea or argument, and so on.也许是为了理解某个较为困惑的思想或论点等等。Then the students should decide exactly what they are going to read; 然后学生们应该准确决定他们要读什么。it's seldom necessary to read the whole book.很少有必要读整本书。A good starting point is the contents page, the chapter headings, and even the index at the back of the book. 阅读最好的开始就是先读目录页、章节的标题以及书末的索引。They are very useful in helping to pinpoint the exact pages that need to be read carefully for particular pieces of information.这些将非常有助于精准地确定为了获得某一特定信息的需要而去认真阅读那一页。

But you cannot have one thing: you cannot eat the apples from the Tree of Knowledge." “在这花园里，你们可以吃一切东西。但有一样东西你们不能吃。——你们不能吃智慧树上的果实。”One day Satan came to the Garden. 一天，撒旦来到了伊甸园。He changed into a snake and went to live in the Tree of Knowledge.他把自己变成了一条蛇爬上了智慧树，并
住在了上面。When Eve came near the tree one day, the snake called her. 有一天，夏娃来到了树旁，撒旦变成的蛇叫住了她。He gave her an apple and said, "Take this apple and eat it. Don't listen to the God. Eat it.'' 他给了夏娃一个智慧树的果实，并对她说：“拿着吧。不能让上帝听到，吃了它吧。”After Eve took a bite, she took the apple to Adam. 在夏娃咬了一口之后，她把剩下的智慧树果实带给了亚当。He was afraid, but Eve repeated again and again: "It's good. Here, eat it. Why not?" So he finally ate the apple.亚当很担心，但是夏娃一遍又一遍地重复道：“味道不错。就在这儿，吃了它吧。为什么不吃呢？”最终，亚当把这个果实吃了。

Help！（救命啊！）
The murder took place around ten o'clock p.m. on June 10. 这起凶杀案发生在1月10日晚10点钟。Thirty-two people watched Kitty being killed right beneath their windows.当时，有32个人看着凯蒂就在他们的窗下被杀害。She was their neighbor. Yet, none of the 32 helped her. 凯蒂是他们的邻居，但是32个人中却没有一个人去救她。Not even one called the police. 甚至没有一个人打电话报警。Was this inhuman cruelty？是人们太狠心了吗？Was it lack of feeling for one's fellow man?还是人们缺乏邻里间的感情？
"Not so," say scientists Dr. Darley and Dr. Fatane. “不，不是这样。”达雷博士和范特尼博士说道。They've found the reasons why people don't act. 他们找到了人们无动于衷的原因。According to them, a person has to go through two steps before he can help.按照他们的说法，一个人面对这样的局面，在采取行动之前得经过两个步骤。First he has to notice there is an emergency.首先他得注意到紧急情况的发生。
Suppose you see a middle--aged man fall onto the ground. 假如你看到一位中年人摔倒在地上。Is he having a heart attack, or some other physical trouble? “他是心脏病发作了吗，还是其他身体方面的问题？Or is he simply about to sleep off a drunk? 或者只是喝醉酒而躺下了？So it's not always easy to tell if' you are faced with a real emergency. 因此，一般情况下难以判断你面临的是否是真正的紧急情况。
Second and more important, the person faced with an emergency must feel himself responsible. He must feel that he must help. 第二点，也是更重要的一点。即使一个人的确面对一种紧急情况，他必须觉得他本人有责任而给予帮助。The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around. 研究人员还发现，在案件发生的现场有多少人也至关重要。They asked college students to come in to be "tested." 他们邀请了大学生们来做了个测试。Some came alone, some with one or two others, and some in large-groups. 一些学生是一个人一组，一些则是两三个人一组，而另外一些则以一大群为一组。When they came in, either alone, in pairs, or in groups, a lady went into the next room. 他们要么是单独一人，要么是两人，要么是一大群人进入一个房间时，一位女士则进入另一个房间。Soon the students heard as cream; the noise of something falling and a cry for help. 很快学生们就听到了隔壁房间传来尖叫声，东西摔在地上的声音以及求救声。All of this had been pre-recorded on a tape-recorder.当然这些都是事先录制的。
Eight out of ten of the students taking the test alone acted to help. Of the students in pairs, only twoout of ten helped. Of the students in groups, none helped. 单独一人进房间的十个学生中，有八个采取救助的行动。两人一组进房间的，十人中只有两人有救助的行动。而那些一大群一起进入房间的，无一个人有救助的行动。
In other words, in a group, Americans often fail to act. 换句话说，当成群结队时，美国人常常对突发事件无动于衷。They feel that others will act. They, themselves, needn't. 他们总是认为别人会采取行动的，而他们没有必要行动。They do not feel any direct responsibility.他们认为他们没有直接的责任。
1. Why didn't the thirty-two people act to help Kitty according to the passage?
根据文章的叙述，为什么32个人没有采取行动去帮助凯蒂？
A) Because they were afraid to be killed.
B) Because they were cruel in their hearts.
C) Because they thought others would help.

D) Because they didn't notice the emergency.
2. Which of the following is an emergency?
下列哪一项是紧急情况？
A) Someone is falling onto the ground.
B) Someone is having a heart attack.
有人心脏病发作
C) Someone is having a trouble.

当一个人注意到紧急情况时，在他采取行动去救助前，他必须_____________
A) feel himself responsible 感觉自己负责B) call the police
C) hear a cry for help D) be with a group
4. The result of the tests shows that_____________
测试的结果表明_____________

Polite to Women（对女士彬彬有礼）
There was a time when, if a lady got onto a crowded bus or train, a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer her his seat. 过去曾经有那么一段时间，如果一位女士走上拥挤的公共汽车或火车时，男士们就会立即站起来，主动给她让座。Today a gentleman will probably look out of the window or hide behind his newspaper.而现在遇到这样的事，男士们也许只会盯着窗外或者埋着头看报。Either way, the lady will have to stand until someone gets off.遇到男士的这种表现，她们只有站着直到有人下车。
You can't entirely blame men for this change in manners.男士们这种行为上的变化也并不能全怪他们。The days are gone when women could be treated as the weaker sex. 毕竟，女人被视为弱势性别的时代已经过去了。A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men;要求与男人们平起平坐的一代女性已成长起来。not just equality in jobs or education, but in social attitudes.她们不仅要求在工种、教育上与男人们平等，甚至在社会认可上也要求平等。Hold a door open for some women and you're likely to get an angry lecture on treating women as inferiors, unable to open

It's no wonder, then, that men have given up some of the gestures of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women.勿庸质疑，男士们已经放弃了过去对女士们表现出的那种彬彬有礼、体贴入微的态度。On the other hand, man's politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women, so that men can see women as equal human beings.相反，男士那种彬彬有礼的行为已逐渐被对女士们真实需求和情感的考虑所取代，因此男士能够平等看待女士。
