Lesson 2
1.Instead of getting big fat curls, I emerged with an uneven mass of
crinkly black fuzz.
我的头发没有做出我要的大卷花，而是给我弄成一头乱蓬蓬的黑色小卷毛。
2.She checked to see if that might be one way to pronounce “Helsinki”
before showing me the answer.
在她告诉我答案前，她对了对手中的杂志，看看赫尔辛基是否能这样发音。
3.She seemed entranced by the music, a frenzied little piano piece with
a mesmerizing quality, sort of quick passages and then teasing lilting
ones before it returned to the quick playful parts.
她似乎被这音乐吸引住了。这钢琴曲不长，但有点狂乱，有着迷人的特点，乐曲一开始时快节奏的，接着是欢快跳动的节拍，然后又回到嬉戏的部分。
4.If she had as much talent as she had temper, she would be famous
now.
如果她的才气和她的脾气一样大，她早就出名了。
5.The part I liked to practice best was the fancy curtsy: right foot out,
touch the rose on the carpet with a pointed foot, sweep to the side, bend left leg, look up, and smile.
我最喜欢练习的部分是花哨的谢幕行礼的动作：先出右脚，脚尖点在地毯的玫瑰图案上，身子侧摆，左腿弯曲，抬头，微笑。
6. A chill started at the top of my head and began to trickle down. Yet I
couldn’t stop playing, as though my hands were bewitched. I kept thinking my fingers would adjust themselves back, like a train switching to the right track.
一股凉气从头顶开始，然后一点点传到全身。但我却不能停止演奏，双手好像着了魔似的。我不停地想，我的手指会调整好，就像火车会被扳倒正确的轨道上。
7.…and her face went blank, her mouth closed, her arms went slack,
and she backed out of the room, stunned, as if she were blowing away like a small brown leaf, thin, brittle, lifeless.
她的脸部失去了表情，嘴巴紧闭，双臂无力地垂下。她退出了房间，神色惊异，好像一小片枯黄的树叶被风吹走了，那样的单薄、脆弱、毫无生气。
8.And for the first time, or so it seemed, I noticed the piece on the
right-hand side, It was called “Perfectly Contented” I tried to play this one as well. It had a lighter melody but with the same flowing rhythm and turned out to be quite easy. “Pleading Child” was shorter but slower; “Perfectly Contented” was longer but faster. And after I had played them both a few times, I realized they were two halves of the same song.
我第一次，或好像感觉是第一次，注意到右边的乐曲。它的名称是“心满意足”。我也试着弹这首曲子。它的曲调比较轻松，但节奏同样流畅，不是很难。“祈求的孩子”较短、较慢，而“心满意足”更长、更快一些。在我弹了几遍后，我意识到，原来这两个曲子是同一首歌的两个组成部分。
Lesson 3
1.Today we are in the throes of a worldwide reformation of cultures, a
tectonic shift of habits and dreams called, in the curious vocabulary of social scientists, “globalization”.
今天我们正经历着一种世界范围文化剧变的阵痛，一种习俗与追求的结构性变化，用社会科学家奇特的词汇来称呼这种变化，就叫“全球化”。
2.Whatever their backgrounds or agendas, these critics are convinced
that Western — often equated with American — influences will flatten every cultural crease, producing, as one observer terms it, one big “McWorld”.
不管他们的背景和纲领如何，这些对全球化持反对态度的人深信西方的影响——往往等同于美国的影响——会把所有文化上的差异一一压平，就像一位观察家所说的，最终产生一个麦当劳世界，一个充斥美国货和美国价值观的世界。
3.But I also discovered that cultures are as resourceful, resilient, and
unpredictable as the people who compose them.
不过我也发现文化就如同构成文化的民族一样，善于随机应变，富有弹性而且不可预测。
4.It’s really hard to be original these days, so the easiest way to come up
with new stuff is to mix things that already exist.
现今原创极为困难。因此，最容易的办法就是把现存的东西组合在一起，拿出一个新玩意儿来。
5.The Cosmopolitan, plunging necklines and all, is read by 260,000
Chinese women every month.
26万中国妇女每个月都在阅读《时尚》杂志，那些开领低胸的画页及其他内容。
6.The lights went out, and for a moment the only sound in the darkness
was the whirring of an expensive camera on auto-rewind.
灯光熄灭，有一阵子，黑暗中唯一的声音就是一部价格按贵的照相机自动倒卷时发出的声音。
7.They received a lot from local cultures, but they also kept their own
identity.
他们从当地文化吸收了不少东西，但仍然保持了自己的本色。8.Linking humanity’s natural impulse, its common destiny。
相互联系是人类自有的欲望，是其共同的命运。
9.They are the powerful cords of the heart.
这种连接靠的是强有力的心灵的纽带
Lesson 4
1.It was she who used to come between me and my paper when I was
writing reviews.
就是她，在我写评论时，总是在我和我的写作之间制造麻烦。2.I now record the one act for which I take some credit to myself,
though the credit rightly belongs to some excellent ancestors of mine who left me a certain sum of money—shall we say five hundred pounds a year—so that it was not necessary for me to depend solely on charm for my living.
下面我要说说多少是我自己决定做的一件事情，当然做此事的功劳主要还应归功于我的了不起的祖先，是他们给我留下了一笔财产——比如说每年五百英镑吧——这样我就不必完全靠女人的魅力去谋生了。
3.I do not believe that anybody can know until she has expressed herself
in all the arts and professions open to human skill.
我相信，只有妇女在人类知识所设计的全部艺术和专业领域中用创造形式表达自己的情感后，她们才能知道什么是妇女。
4.He wants to see th e same faces…so that nothing may disturb or
disquiet the mysterious nosings about, feelings around, darts, dashes and sudden discoveries of that very shy and illusive spirit, the imagination.
他希望在他写作时，他每天见的人，读的书，做的事都是相同的，这样任何事物都不会打破他生活的幻想，也不会搅乱他的四处探求以及对那令人难以捉摸的东西——想象力的突然发现。
5.Be that as it may, I want you to imagine me writing a novel in a state
of trance.
尽管如此，我请你想象我在迷睡的状态中写小说。
6.The consciousness of what men will say of a woman who speaks the
truth about her passions had roused her from her artist’s state of unconsciousness.
她意识到男人们会如何议论一个敢讲有关激情真话的女人，这使她从艺术家的无意识状态中惊醒了。
7.Inwardly, I think, the case is very different; she has still many ghosts
to fight, many prejudices to overcome.
从内心精神方面看，情况颇为不同。妇女还要与许多鬼怪展开斗争，还有许多偏见需要去克服。
8.To discuss and define them is I think of great value and importance;
for thus only can the labor be shared, the difficulties be solved.
议论和界定这些障碍是十分重要的，因为只有如此我们才能共同努力克服困难。
9.Those aims cannot be taken for granted; they must be perpetually
questioned and examined.
那些目的是什么，对这个问题我们不能想当然，而要不断地提出
疑问和进行审视。
Lesson 6
1.There has arisen a thing called life—flamboyant, rambunctious,
gregarious form of matter, qualitatively different from rocks, gas, and dust, yet made of the same stuff, the same humdrum elements lying around everywhere.
出现了一种叫做生命的东西——物质的一种形态：它与岩石、气体以及尘埃有本质的不同，但却由同样的东西，到处存在的同样的元素构成。
2.Extraterrestrial life represents an enormous gap in our knowledge of
nature.
外空是否存在生命，这是我们对自然认识的空白。
3.We don't know how truly alien it is. We don't know if it's built on a
foundation of carbon atoms. We don't know if it requires a liquid-water medium, if it swims or flies or burrows.
我们不知道这种生命是否建立在碳原子基础上，是否需要液体形态的水作为中介，是游呢、飞呢，还是生活在地下。
4.But neither are people who believe in the UFO narratives irrational,
much less crazy, as they are sometimes depicted.
对外星人乘坐飞碟光临地球这种说法深信不疑的人，并不像人们有时候所说的那样，是逻辑混乱，更不是丧失理智。
5.…who said that on a scale of one to ten of increasing probability of
biological origin, he could only grant the alleged Martian fossils a two.
在分成一至十的等级表上，等级越高，生物起源的可能性就越大。他说他只能给所谓的火星化石一个二级。
6.There was a time when plate tectonics—the movement and collision
and subduction of vast slabs of the Earth's crust—was deemed a very strange idea.
有一段时间，板块构造地质学被视作十分怪异的主张，板块地质学是指地壳的巨大板块的移动、碰撞、下沉。
7.Mars has no such mechanism, and this seemingly minor deficiency
may be the reason Mars lost most of its atmosphere.
火星没有这种机制，而这一看似微不足道的缺陷也许就是火星失去其大部分空气的原因。
8.…who argue that high intelligence has occurred only once on Earth,
among something like a billion species. Hence it is a billion—to—one long shot.
他提出，高智能在地球上近十亿物种中只出现一个。因此，只有十亿分之一的成功机会。
9.That on the only planet we know of that has life, intelligence
appeared. That’s a one—for—one proposition.
在我们知道的有生命的唯一星球上出现了具有智能的物种，其比率为
一比一。
Lesson 7
1.live with your head in
你要在险境中求生，希望你对他们唯唯诺诺让他们忘乎所以，对他们笑脸相迎让他们放松警惕，对他们百依百顺知道他们彻底完蛋。让他们吞噬你，直到撑的他们呕吐，胀得他们肚皮开花。
2.my teeth chartered
我的牙直打颤，浑身起着鸡皮疙瘩，膝盖也在发抖。
3.I want you to run
铃声一响，你就给我跑过去，照准他的肚子狠狠的揍。你不打他，我就打你。

5.I moved carefully
我谨慎的移动着，躲开攻击，不过不敢躲得太多，怕引起别人注意。

8.a blow to my head as
我正左右跳动着，忽然飞来一拳打在我头上，我的右眼就像玩具盒里弹出的小丑一样爆了出来，这也让我从进退两难的境地中解脱出来了。
9.and i lay there
我躺在地上朦胧之中看到自己那块深红色的血迹，慢慢的变成蝴蝶状，泛着红光，浸透在污迹斑斑的帆布场地上。

Unit 1 一个大学男孩，不清楚赚钱需要付出艰苦的劳动，被一份许诺轻松赚大钱的广告吸引了。男孩们很快就明白，如果事情看起来好得不像真的，那多半确实不是真的。 轻轻松松赚大钱 “你们该看看这个，”我向我们的两个读大学的儿子建议道。“你们若想避免因为老是向人讨钱而有失尊严的话，这兴许是一种办法。”我将挂在我们门把手上的、装在一个塑料袋里的几本杂志拿给他们。塑料袋上印着一条信息说，需要招聘人投递这样的袋子，这活儿既轻松又赚钱。（“轻轻松松赚大钱!”）“我不在乎失不失尊严，”大儿子回答说。 “我可以忍受，”他的弟弟附和道。 “看到你们俩伸手讨钱讨惯了一点也不感到尴尬的样子，真使我痛心，”我说。 孩子们说他们可以考虑考虑投递杂志的事。我听了很高兴，便离城出差去了。午夜时分，我已远离家门，在一家旅馆的房间里舒舒服服住了下来。电话铃响了，是妻子打来的。她想知道我这一天过得可好。 “好极了!”我兴高采烈地说。“你过得怎么样?”我问道。 “棒极了!”她大声挖苦道。“真棒!而且这还仅仅是个开始。又一辆卡车刚在门前停下。” “又一辆卡车?” “今晚第三辆了。第一辆运来了四千份蒙哥马利-沃德百货公司的广告；第二辆运来四千份西尔斯-罗伯克百货公司的广告。我不知道这一辆装的啥，但我肯定又是四千份什么的。既然这事是你促成的，我想你或许想了解事情的进展。” 我之所以受到指责，事情原来是这样：由于发生了一起报业工人罢工，通常夹在星期日报纸里的广告插页，必须派人直接投送出去。公司答应给我们的孩子六百美金，任务是将这些广告插页在星期天早晨之前投递到四千户人家去。 “不费吹灰之力!”我们上大学的大儿子嚷道。 “六百块!”他的弟弟应声道，“我们两个钟点就能干完!” “西尔斯和沃德的广告通常都是报纸那么大的四页，”妻子告诉我说，“现在我们门廊上堆着三万二千页广告。就在我们说话的当儿，两个大个子正各抱着一大捆广告走过来。这么多广告，我们可怎么办?” “你让孩子们快干，”我指示说。“他们都是大学生了。他们自己的事得由他们自己去做。” 第二天中午，我回到旅馆，看到一份紧急留言，要我马上给妻子回电话。她的声音高得很不自然，而且有些颤抖。家里又运到了好几卡车的广告插页。“有百货公司的，廉价商店的，杂货店的，食品店的，汽车行的，等等。有些像整本杂志那么厚。我们这里有数十万页，说不定是几百万页的广告!我们家整个房子从东墙到西墙，从南墙到北墙统统堆满了广告，一堆又一堆，比你大儿子还要高。现在只剩下一点点空间，刚够一个人走进去，从十一种插页中各取一份，卷在一起，套上橡皮筋，再塞进一只塑料袋内。我们的塑料袋足够供应全美所有的外卖餐厅!”她越讲声音越响，几乎震耳欲聋。“这么多的广告必须在星期日早晨七点以前统统送出去。”

Unit1 The Dinner Party 关于男人是否比女人更勇敢的一场激烈争论以一种颇为出人意料的方式解决了 The dinner party 晚宴 1. I first heard this tale in India, where is told as if true—though any naturalist would know it couldn’t be. Later someone told me that the story appeared in a magazine shortly before the First World War. That magazine story, and the person who wrote it, I have never been able to track down. 我最初听到这个故事是在印度，那儿的人们今天讲起它来仍好像确有其事似的——尽管任何一位博物学家都知道这不可能是真的。后来有人告诉我，在第一次世界大战之前不久，一家杂志曾刊登过这个故事。但登在杂志上的那篇故事以及写那篇故事的人，我却一直未能找到。 2.The country is India.A colonial official and his wife are giving a large dinner party. They are seated with their guests—officers and their wives, and a visiting American naturalist—in their spacious dining room, which has a bare marble floor, open rafters and wide glass doors opening onto a veranda. 故事发生在印度。某殖民地官员和他的夫人正举行盛大的晚宴。筵席设在他们家宽敞的餐室里，室内大理石地板上没有铺地毯；屋顶明椽裸露；宽大的玻璃门外便是走廊。跟他们一起就坐的客人有军官和他们的夫人，另外还有一位来访的美国博物学家。 3. A spirited discussion springs up between a young girl who says that women have outgrown the jumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouse era and a major who says that they haven't. 席间，一位年轻的女士同一位少校展开了热烈的讨论。年轻的女士认为，妇女已经有所进步，不再像过去那样一见到老鼠就吓得跳到椅子上；少校则不以为然。 4. "A woman's reaction in any crisis, "the major says, "is to scream. And while a man may feel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has. And that last ounce is what really counts." 他说：“一遇到危急情况，女人的反应便是尖叫。而男人虽然也可能想叫，但比起女人来，自制力却略胜一筹。这多出来的一点自制力正是真正起作用的东西。” 5. The American does not join in the argument but watches the other guests. As he looks, he sees a strange expression come over the face of the hostess. She is straight ahead, her muscles contracting slightly. She motions to the native boy standing behind her chair and whispers something to him. The boy's eyes widen：he quickly leaves the room. 那个美国人没有参加这场争论，他只是注视着在座的其他客人。在他这样观察时，他发现女主人的脸上显出一种奇异的表情。她两眼盯着正前方，脸部肌肉在微微抽搐。她向站在座椅后面的印度男仆做了个手势，对他耳语了几句。男仆两眼睁得大大的，迅速地离开了餐室。 6. Of the guests, none except the American notices this or sees the boy place a bowl of milk on the veranda just outside the open doors. 在座的客人中除了那位美国人以外谁也没注意到这一幕，也没有看到那个男仆把一碗牛奶放在紧靠门边的走廊上。 7. The American comes to with a start. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing—bait for a snake. He realizes there must be a cobra in the room. He looks up at the rafters—the likeliest place—but they are bare. Three corners of the room are empty, and in the fourth the servants are

Unit2 Jefferson's courage and idealism were based on knowledge. He probably knew more than any other man of his age. He was an expert in agriculture, archeology, an d medicine. He practiced crop rotation and soil conservation a century before t hese became standard practice, and he invented a plow superior to any other in existence. He influenced architecture throughout America, and he was constantly producing devices for making the tasks of ordinary life easier to perform. Of all Jefferson's many talents, one is central. He was above all a good and ti reless writer. His complete works, now being published for the first time, will fill more than fifty volumes. His talent as an author was soon discovered, and when the time came to write the Declaration of Independence at Philadelphia in 1776, the task of writing it was his. Millions have thrilled to his words: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…" Unit3 While I was waiting to enter university, I saw advertised in a local newspaper a teaching post at a school in a suburb of London about ten miles from where I lived. Being very short money and wanting to do something useful, I applied, fe aring as I did so, that without a degree and with no experience in teaching my chances of getting the job were slim. However, three days later a letter arrived, asking me to go to Croydon for an i nterview. It proved an awkward journey: a train to Croydon station; a ten-minut e bus ride and then a walk of at least a quarter to feel nervous. Unit 4 As a boy and then as an adult,I never lost my wonder at the personality that was Einstein .He was the only person i knew who had come to terms with himself and the world around him .He knew what he wanted and he wanted only this :to understand within his limits as a human being the nature of the universe and the logic and simplicity in its functioning .He knew there were answers beyond his intellectual reach .but this did not frustrate him .He was content to go as far as he could.
