Unit1 P11

Have you ever known anyone famous? If so, you may have found that they are remarkably similar to the rest of us. You may have even heard them object to people saying there is anything different about them. “I’m really just a normal guy,” protests an actor who has recently rocketed into the spotlight. There is, of course, usually a brief period when they actually start to believe they are as great as their worshipping fans suggest. They start to wear fancy clothes and talk as if everyone should hear what they have to say. This period, however, does not often last long. They fall back to reality as fast as they had originally risen above it all. What will it feel like to soar to such altitude and look down like an eagle from up high on everyone else? And what will it feel like to have flown so high only to wake from your dream and realize you are only human? Some only see the cruelty in losing something they had gained. They often make desperate attempts to regain what they lost. Often these efforts result in even greater pain. Some become bankrupt financially and emotionally. The only real winners are those who are happy to be back on the ground with the rest of us.

你了解名人吗?如果是这样,你可能发现他们与我们身边其余的人非常地相似。甚至,你可能已经听到他们反对的别人说有他们什么不同。“我真的只是一个普通人。”一个最近已经飙升到了聚光灯下的演员抗议说。当然,通常是一个短暂的时期,他们真正开始相信他们正如崇拜他们粉丝建议的那样伟大。他们开始穿漂亮的衣服,交谈着就好像每个人都应该听到他说什么。然而,这段时期不会持续很长时间。他们会按他们原来上升的速度回到现实。是什么使他感觉高飞到一定高度,然后像一只鹰一样向下看高于其他人?是什么使你在像鹰一样飞那么高的美梦里醒来,然后意识到你仅仅是个人类。一些人仅仅看到失去他们曾获得的东西的残忍。他们往往急切的试图夺回他们所失去的。通常这些努力导致了更大的疼痛。会有人在经济上和情感上倾家荡产。唯一的真正的赢家是快乐的回到陆地上与其余的人一样的人。

Unit2 P36

Have you ever heard of Jon Stewart? He is currently one of the most popular comics on television. His pessimistic view of the politics and government induces laughter, thought and even anger. He has a clever wit that often runs into collision with some government policies. His whole show is devoted to making fun of the nonsense that occurs in politics. But, what makes his show so successful is his ability to tell his jokes with intelligence.

“It’s not just comedy,” said one media expert. “His comments have a lot of influence over a very large audience in American. He has a lot of political power.”

Recently Stewart was a guest on a news show about politics. The host journalist sparked a heated debate when he inquired about Stewart responsibility to the American public. Stewart argued that while the content of the script for his show may be political in nature, his primary obligation is to entertain. The host journalist, however, emphasized the political influence of his performance. The argument ended up rousing anger from both parties. The incident underlined how sensitive some people can be to what others find funny. It also showed how important comedians have become to politics.

你听说过Jon Stewart吗?他目前是电视荧幕上最受欢迎的喜剧演员之一。他对政治和政府的消极观点会引起观众大笑,进行思考,甚至愤怒。他有一个聪明机智的头脑,经常跑进一些和政府政策的冲突。他整场秀致力于取笑发生在政治上发生的胡言乱语。但是,使他的秀走向成功的是他有着智慧的讲笑话的能力。

“这不仅仅是一个喜剧,”一个媒体专家说,“他的评价在美国对一大批观众有着很大的影响。他有很大的政治力量。”

最近Stewart做了一个政治新闻节目的嘉宾。新闻主持人引发了一场激烈的争辩,当询问到Stewart对

美国公众的责任时。Stewart 争辩道他的秀的剧本的内容在本质上可能是政治,但是他主要的责任义务是娱乐。然而,新闻主持人强调他的表演有政治影响。双方的争论以热烈的愤怒告终。这一事件突显出一些人在别人觉得有趣的地方是多么敏感。它还显示喜剧演员对政治已经变得多么重要。

Unit3 P62

What happens in America when someone becomes disabled and cannot do the kind of work they did in the past? If someone has been injured on the job, they are supposed to notify the medical worker, who would certify that there was a problem. Then, they may receive compensation from the company. If the company provides a pension, the person may receive money monthly to make up for lost wages. The person who has been disabled may also take the company to court if safety was neglected at the workplace. This usually results in receipt of a payment to settle the dispute. In addition, all workplaces are required to pay money to the government for a program to take care of people disabled on the job. One provision in this program requires workplaces where more injuries occur to pay more money. For this reason companies that require heavy physical labor take safety very seriously. Most people misunderstand disability insurance. They think it is ridiculous that a person should get paid without working. In fact, this benefit is usually not enough to cover the rent and other bills of those who receive it. Most of the disabled still want to work, but recovery from the injury and training for other types of employment takes time.

在美国,当有人残疾了,不能做他们之前的那份工作时,会发生什么?如果有人在工作中受伤,他们应该通知医务工作者,那些能证明这个问题的人。然后,他们可以从公司获得赔偿。如果公司提供了补贴,那他每月可以收到弥补损失工资的钱。那些已经残疾的人也可以将公司告上法庭,如果在工作场所的安全被忽视了。这通常会以用赔偿解决争议做结。此外,所有工作场所需要付钱给政府的一个项目,用作照顾因这个工作残疾的人。这个项目中有一个条款,伤害发生较多的作业场所需要支付更多的钱。因为这个原因,需要繁重的体力劳动者的公司需要非常重视安全。多数人误解了残障保险。他们认为一个人不工作却获得报酬是荒谬的。事实上,这个好处通常不足以交付房租和他们收到的其他账单。大多数的残疾人仍然想工作,但从伤病中恢复以及培训其他类型的就业需要时间。

Unit4 P88

Mr. Li runs a small trade company in Sichuan province. He used to be worried about the sales of his goods, but now he simply logs on the Internet and transmits the information about his company to almost anywhere. He now has so many resources at his disposal than before. He has even started to invest in foreign and make money almost anywhere.

The telecommunications revolution has certainly changed the way we look at the world. And, most importantly, it allows people to get equal access to the information. People in less developed areas of the world are taking advantage of the benefits as well. One person says, I used to have a small farm, but now I am doing international business. This is just one of the many benefits of the information superhighway. There are, however, some potential challenges we will have to face. For example, there is a great deal of concern over privacy in the information age. Mr. Li highlights this point. Hopefully, we can solve this problem in the near future.

李先生在四川经营了一个小型贸易公司。他过去常常担心他产品的销售,但他现在只是简单地登录互联网,把关于他公司的信息传输到几乎任何地方。现在他在销售上比以前有更多的资源。他甚至已经开始在外国投资,在任何地方赚钱。

电信革命无疑改变了我们看待世界的方式。最重要的是,它使人们平等获取信息。在欠发达地区的人们也可以利用这些好处的优点。一个人说,我曾经有过一个小农场,但现在我在做国际商务。这只是信息高速公路许多好处的其中之一。然而,现在有一些潜在的挑战,我们将不得不面对。例如,在信息时代,关

于隐私有很大的担忧。李先生强调了这一点。但愿,在不久的将来,我们可以解决这一问题。

Unit5 P114

How do you spend your time when you're alone? Do you turn up your music as loud as you can and listen to your own entertainment? Do you buy yourself the biggest steak you could find and sit down to a good meal? It has been my observation that these activities can be the best type of therapy for a troubled mind. It is crucial for humans to find some solitude in life. They must find some time to let the universe go spinning on without other's interruption. The portion of this world that belongs to one person is increasingly becoming smaller. And whatever we have we must share with others. Therefore, our ability to maintain a healthy balance between social interaction and personal pursuits is being challenged. Inspiration in solitude is a major commodity not only for poets and philosophers but for ordinary people as well. A healthy adult needs "alone-time"--time to reflect on what is truly important to them. When you are alone, you can stretch out your soul until it fills up the whole room, and use your freedom, moving at your own pace. However, it's important to stay rational. Don't forget that in order to be a healthy part of other' lives, you must yourself be healthy.

当你独自一人时你会如何消磨时间?你会把音乐声调到最大,听自己的音乐会吗?你会给自己买你能找到的最大的牛排,坐下来吃一顿大餐吗?从我的观察,这些活动是治疗烦躁的心的最好方法。对人类来说,在生活中发现孤独是困难的。他们必须找到一些时间让自己的宇宙旋转,没有其他人的打断。这个世界属于一个人的部分越来越小。而且我们不论我们有什么,我们都必须与他人分享。因此,我们维持社会互动和个人追求健康平衡的能力受到挑战。孤独带来的灵感是重要的日用品,不仅对于诗人和哲学家,普通人也一样。一个健康的成年人需要“alone-time”——去反思什么是对他们真正重要的东西。当你独自一人时,你可以伸展你的灵魂,直到它填满整个房间,使用你的自由,走你自己的道路。然而,保持理性是很重要的。别忘了,为了成为其他人生命中一个健康的部分,你自己必须是健康的。

Unit 1 Section A 艺术家追求成名,如同狗自逐其尾,一旦追到手,除了继续追逐不知还能做些什么。成功之残酷正在于它常常让那些追逐成功者自寻毁灭。 对一名正努力追求成功并刚刚崭露头角的艺术家,其亲朋常常会建议“正经的饭碗不能丢~”他们的担心不无道理。 追求出人头地,最乐观地说也困难重重,许多人到最后即使不是穷困潦倒,也是几近精神崩溃。 尽管如此,希望赢得追星族追捧和同行赞扬之类的不太纯洁的动机却在激励着他们向前。享受成功的无上光荣,这种诱惑不是能轻易抵挡的。 成名者之所以成名,大多是因为发挥了自己在歌唱、舞蹈、绘画或写作等方面的特长,并能形成自己的风格。 为了能迅速走红,代理人会极力吹捧他们这种风格。他们青云直上的过程让人看不清楚。他们究竟是怎么成功的,大多数人也都说不上来。 尽管如此,艺术家仍然不能闲下来。 若表演者、画家或作家感到无聊,他们的作品就难以继续保持以前的吸引力,也就难以保持公众的注意力。 公众的热情消磨以后,就会去追捧下一个走红的人。 有些艺术家为了不落伍,会对他们的写作、跳舞或唱歌的风格稍加变动,但这将冒极大的失宠的危险。 公众对于他们藉以成名的艺术风格以外的任何形式都将不屑一顾。 知名作家的文风一眼就能看出来,如田纳西?威廉斯的戏剧、欧内斯特?海明威的情节安排、罗伯特?弗罗斯特或 T.S.艾略特的诗歌等。

同样,像莫奈、雷诺阿、达利这样的画家,希区柯克、费里尼、斯皮尔伯格、陈凯歌或张艺谋这样的电影制作人也是如此。 他们鲜明独特的艺术风格标志着与别人不同的艺术形式上的重大变革,这让他们名利双收,但也让他们付出了代价,那就是失去了用其他风格或形式表现自我的自由。 名气这盏聚光灯可比热带丛林还要炙热。骗局很快会被揭穿,过多的关注带来的压力会让大多数人难以承受。 它让你失去自我。你必须是公众认可的那个你,而不是真实的你或是可能的你。艺人,就像政客一样,必须常常说些违心或连自己都不完全相信的话来取悦听众。 一滴名气之水有可能玷污人的心灵这一整口井,因此一个艺术家若能保持真我,会格外让人惊叹。 你可能答不上来哪些人没有妥协,却仍然在这场名利的游戏中获胜。 一个例子就是爱尔兰著名作家奥斯卡?王尔德,他在社交行为和性行为方面以我行我素而闻名于世。虽然他的行为遭到公众的反对,却依然故我,他也因此付出了惨痛的代价。在一次宴会上,他一位密友的母亲当着他的朋友和崇拜者的面,指责他在性方面影响了她的儿子。 他听了她的话以后大为光火,起诉了这个年轻人的母亲,声称她毁了自己的“好”名声。但是,他真该请一个更好的律师。 结果是,法官不仅不支持他提出的让这个女人赔偿他名声损失费的请求,反而对他本人进行了罚款。 他由于拒交罚款最终还被送进了监狱。更糟糕的是,他再也无法获得更多公众的宠爱。在最糟糕的时候,他发现没有一个人愿意拿自己的名声冒险来替他说话。

第一单元 The Doctrine of the Mean is the core ofConfucianism. The so-called “mean” by Confuciusdoesn’t mean “compromise” but a “moderate”and “just-right” way when understanding andhandling objective things. Confucius advocatedthat this thought should not only be treated as away to understand and deal with things but alsobe integrated into one’s daily conduct to makeit a virtue through self-cultivation and training. The Doctrine of the Mean is not only the core ofConfucianism but also an important componentof traditional Chinese culture. From the time itcame into being to the present, it has played aninvaluable role in the construction of nationalspirit, the transmission of national wisdom, and the development of national culture. 中庸思想是儒家思想的重要内容。孔子所谓的“中”不是指“折中”,而是指在认识和处理客观事物时的一种“适度”和“恰如其分”的方法。孔子主张不仅要把这种思想作为一种认识和处理事物的方法来看待,而且还通过自身修养和锻炼,把它融入自己的日常行为当中,使之成为一种美德。中庸思想是儒家思想的

1A An artist who seeks fame is like a dog chasing his own tail who, when he captures it, does not know what else to do but to continue chasing it. The cruelty of success is that it often leads those who seek such success to participate in their own destruction. "Don't quit your day job!" is advice frequently given by understandably pessimistic family members and friends to a budding artist who is trying hard to succeed. The conquest of fame is difficult at best, and many end up emotionally if not financially bankrupt. Still, impure motives such as the desire for worshipping fans and praise from peers may spur the artist on. The lure of drowning in fame's imperial glory is not easily resisted. Those who gain fame most often gain it as a result of exploiting their talent for singing, dancing, painting, or writing, etc. They develop a style that agents market aggressively to hasten popularity, and their ride on the express elevator to the top is a blur. Most would be hard-pressed to tell you how they even got there. Artists cannot remain idle, though. When the performer, painter or writer becomes bored, their work begins to show a lack of continuity in its appeal and it becomes difficult to sustain the attention of the public. After their enthusiasm has dissolved, the public simply moves on to the next flavor of the month. Artists who do attempt to remain current by making even minute changes to their style of writing, dancing or singing, run a significant risk of losing the audience's favor. The public simply discounts styles other than those for which the artist has become famous. Famous authors' styles—a Tennessee Williams play or a plot by Ernest Hemingway or a poem by Robert Frost or T.S. Eliot—are easily recognizable. The same is true of painters like Monet, Renoir, or Dali and moviemakers like Hitchcock, Fellini, Spielberg, Chen Kaige or Zhang Yimou. Their distinct styles marked a significant change in form from others and gained them fame and fortune. However, they paid for it by giving up the freedom to express themselves with other styles or forms. Fame's spotlight can be hotter than a tropical jungle—a fraud is quickly exposed, and the pressure of so much attention is too much for most to endure. It takes you out of yourself: You must be what the public thinks you are, not what you really are or could be. The performer, like the politician, must often please his or her audiences by saying things he or she does not mean or fully believe. One drop of fame will likely contaminate the entire well of a man's soul, and so an artist who remains true to himself or herself is particularly amazing. You would be hard-pressed to underline many names of those who have not compromised and still succeeded in the fame game. An example, the famous Irish writer Oscar Wilde, known for his uncompromising behavior, both social and sexual, to which the public objected, paid heavily for remaining true to himself. The mother of a young man Oscar was intimate with accused him at a banquet in front of his friends and fans of sexually influencing her son. Extremely angered by her remarks, he sued the young man's mother, asserting that she had damaged his "good" name. He should have hired a better attorney, though. The judge did not second Wilde's call to have the woman pay for damaging his name, and instead fined Wilde. He ended up in jail after refusing to pay, and even worse, was permanently expelled from the wider circle of public favor. When things were at their worst, he found that no one was willing to risk his or her name in his defense. His price for remaining true to himself was to be left alone when he needed his fans the most. Curiously enough, it is those who fail that reap the greatest reward: freedom! They enjoy the freedom to express themselves in unique and original ways without fear of losing the support of fans. Failed artists may find comfort in knowing that many great artists never found fame until well after they had passed away or in knowing that they did not sell out. They may justify their failure by convincing themselves their genius is too sophisticated for contemporary audiences. Single-minded artists who continue their quest for fame even after failure might also like to know that failure has motivated some famous people to work even harder to succeed. Thomas Wolfe, the American novelist, had his first novel Look Homeward, Angel rejected 39 times before it was finally published. Beethoven overcame his father, who did not believe that he had any potential as a musician, to become the greatest musician in the world. And Pestalozzi, the famous Swiss educator in the 19th century, failed at every job he ever had until he came upon the idea of teaching children and developing the fundamental theories to produce a new form of education. Thomas Edison was thrown out of school in the fourth grade, because he seemed to his teacher to be quite dull. Unfortunately for most people, however, failure is the end of their struggle, not the beginning. I say to those who desperately seek fame and fortune: good luck. But alas, you may find that it was not what you wanted. The dog who catches his tail discovers that it is only a tail. The person who achieves success often discovers that it does more harm than good. So instead of trying so hard to achieve success, try to be happy with who you are and what you do. Try to do work that you can be proud of. Maybe you won't be famous in your own lifetime, but you may create better art. 1B One summer day my father sent me to buy some wire and fencing to put around our barn to pen up the bull. At 16, I liked nothing better than getting behind the wheel of our truck and driving into town

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is the world's center of cooperation in the nuclear field. It was set up as the world's "Atoms for Peace" organization in 1957 within the United Nations family. The Agency works with its member states and multiple partners worldwide to promote safe, secure and peaceful nuclear technologies. As an independent international organization related to the United Nations system, the IAEA's relation ship with the UN is regulated by special agreement. In terms of its Statute, the IAEA reports annually to the UN General Assembly and, when appropriate, to the Security Council regarding non-compliance by States with their safeguards obligations as well as on matters relating to international peace and security. The IAEA Secretariat is headquartered in Vienna, Austria. Operational liaison and regional offices are located in Geneva, Switzerland; New York, USA; Toronto, Canada; and Tokyo, Japan. The IAEA's mission is guided by the interests and needs of member states, strategic plans and the vision embodied in the IAEA Statute. Three main pillars or areas of work underpin the IAEA's mission: Safety and Security; Science and Technology; Safeguards and Verification. 国际原子能机构是世界核领域的合作中心,它于1957年作为世界性的“原子能为和平服务”的组织而建立,成为联合国大家庭的一员。该机构与其成员国及世界各地的众多伙伴合作,共同促进安全、稳定、和平的核技术发展。作为一个与联合国体制相关的独立国际性组织,国际原子能机构与联合国的关系是由特别协议规定的。就其章程而言,国际原子能机构每年要向联合国大会作汇报,并适时就一些成员国不遵从其保障义务及涉及国际和平与安全的事宜向安理会作汇报。国际原子能机构秘书处总部设在奥地利的维也纳,行动联络组和区域办公室分设在瑞士日内瓦、美国纽约、加拿大多伦多和日本东京。国际原子能机构的使命以其成员国的利益和需要为指南,战略规划及前景则体现在其章程之中。三个主要支柱或工作领域为国际原子能机构的使命提供着支撑:安全与保障、科学与技术、保卫与核查。 城乡一体化是我国现代化和城市化发展的一个新阶段, 是要通过对城乡发展实行统筹规划,并通过体制改革和政策调整,破除城乡二元经济结构,实现城乡在政策上平等,在产业发展模式上互补,让农村居民享受到与城镇居民同样的文明和福利。城乡一体化是一项重大而深刻的社会变革。它使整个城乡经济能够全面、协调、可持续地发展。只有大力推进城乡一体化,妥善处理城乡关系,加强城乡合作,缩小城乡差距,才能确保到2020年我国实现全面建设小康社会的宏伟目标。 Urban-rural integration is a new stage of China's modernization and urbanization process. It aims to break the urban and rural dual economic structure through making integrated plans for urban and rural development, and through system reform and policy adjustment, so that the urban and rural areas will finally achieve equal policies and realize complementary developing patterns, enabling the rural residents to enjoy the same level of civ ilization and equal benefits with the urban residents. Urban-rural integration is a significant and profound social reform which enables comprehensive, coordinated and sustainable development of the entire urban-rural economy.
