In some culture a significant aspect of spatial perception is shown by the amount of "personal space" people need between themselves and others to feel comfortable and not crowed. North Americans, for instance, seem to require about four feet of space between themselves and the people near them to feel comfortable. On the other hand, people from Arab countries and Latin America feel comfortable when they are close to each other. People from different cultures, therefore, may unconsciously infringe on each other's sense of space. Thus just as different perception of time may create cultural conflicts, so too may different perceptions of space.

Translation

在某些文化中,空间感觉的一个重要的体现于人们所需要的彼此感觉舒适却又不觉得拥挤的“私人空间”。例如,北美人彼此感觉舒适所需要的空间距离大约是4英尺。而阿拉伯人和拉美人反而是彼此靠近才会感觉舒服。因此,不同文化的人可能会无意间侵犯别人的空间感。正如不同的时间观可能会造成文化冲突,不同的空间观也可能引发同样的问题。

Passage Translation

In France, as in many other European countries, friends generally are of the same sex, and friendship is seen basically a relationship between men. Frenchwomen laugh at the idea that "women can't be friends," but they also admit sometimes that for women "it's a different thing. " And many French people doubt the possibility a friendship between man and woman. There is also the kind of relationship within a group——men and women who have worked together for a long time, who may be very close, sharing great loyalty and warmth of feeling. They may call one another copains, a word that in English becomes "friends" but has more feeling of "pals" or "buddies". In French eyes this is not friendship, although two members of such a group may well be friends.

如同其他许多欧洲国家一样,在法国,朋友通常是在同性之间交往的,而友谊被认为基本上是男人之间的一种关系。法国妇女嘲笑“女人不能成为朋友”这种说法,但她们有时也承认,对女人来说,朋友是“另一回事儿”。另外,许多法国人对男女之间是否可能存在友谊表示怀疑。在一个团体中存在着这样一种关系,男女在一起工作了很长一段时间,他们之间的关系可能很密切,彼此忠诚,感觉亲切。他们可能彼此称copains——这个词的英文意思是“朋友”,但却更接近“老铁”或“哥们”的含义。在法国人眼里这不是友谊,虽然这种团体中的两个人很可能成为朋友。

Passage Translation

Father's heavily starched shirt were a problem. When he put one on, he pulled it down over his head, and thrust his arms blindly out right and left in a hunt for the sleeves. A new shirt was strong enough to survive these strains without splitting, but life with Father rapidly weakened it, and the first thing he knew was that he would hear it beginning to tear. That disgusted him. He hated any evidence of weaknesses, either in people or thing. In his wrath he would strike out harder than ever as he felt around for the sleeves. Then would come a sharp cracking noise as the shirt ripped open, and a loud wail from Mother.

父亲那些浆得发硬的衬衫是个问题。他穿衬衫时,把它套住头往下拉,两只手左右乱伸,寻找袖子。新衬衫非常结实,经得起这样拉扯,不会撕裂,但经父亲穿过后,很快就不那么结实了。首先他知道,他会听到它开始撕裂的声音,这使他感到讨厌。他憎恨任何脆弱的表现,不管是人还是物。他愤怒时摸索袖子会比以前更加用力,接着会传来衬衫撕裂时刺耳的噼啪声和母亲大声的抱怨。

Passage Translation

From age eight to eleven, I attended a parochial school in Bath, England. It was a small school composed of four classes with about 25 children in each class according to age. For the most part, one teacher was responsible for teaching all subjects to the children in their class. However, occasionally the headmaster, Mr. Ronald Broackes would come in and spend an hour or so, teaching some subject in which he was especially interested. He took a great interest in me and he quickly discovered that I enjoyed puzzles. He would often waylay me as I was going to class and produce a piece of paper from his pocket, always stopped me on the way I came into the classroom, give me a piece of paper from his pocket, often with a puzzle already on it. The puzzles were usually mathematical or logical. As time went on, they slowly got more difficult, but I loved them. They kindled within me a love of mathematics and problem-solving that stays with me to this day. They also served to show me that intellectual activity was rewarding when the correct answers were found, but perhaps more importantly it was great fun.

从8岁到11岁,我在英格兰巴思的一所教会小学上学.那是一所很小的学校,由四个班级组成,每个班大约二十五个孩子,按年龄分班.一般都是由一个老师负责教一个班的全部课程.但是校长罗纳德布罗克斯偶尔也会到班里来,用大约一个半小时的时间讲授他特别喜欢的课程.他对我很感兴趣,并且很快就知道我喜欢破解难题.他经常在我进教室的路上拦住我,从口袋里掏出一张纸条给我,上面通常写着数学或逻辑方面的难题.随着时间的推移,题目难度逐步增大,可我非常喜欢.这些小纸条点燃了我对数学和难题的热爱,这种热爱一直保持到今天.当我找出答案时,我会觉得那种智力活动很有价值,或许更重要的是,那是要一种巨大的乐趣。

攻势已经持续了三天,但是我们并没有取得多少进展。我们在前线与敌人交战的部队遇到了强力的抵抗。师长(DIVISION COMMANDER)命令我们营(BATTALION)绕到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。我们在夜幕掩盖下出发,不顾困难,奋勇向前。幸运的是,夜间温度突然下降到摄氏零下20度,烂泥地都结上了冰。由于这寒冷的天气,我们于天亮前到达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。 The offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground. Our troops engaging the enemy at the front were faced with strong/fierce/stiff resistance. The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered. Unit 2 汽车在二十世纪改变了世界,尤其是在美国和其他工业国家。汽车确实对我们大有用处,但也带来了一些危害,比如声音污染、空气污染以及公路死亡事故。据报导汽车事故被列为全世界导致死伤的主要原因之一。可庆幸的是,现代发明家们正在重新发明汽车。新的推进系统(PROPULSION SYSTEM)、燃料、设计以及制造汽车的手段在过去的十年中得到迅速发展。例如,通过使用卫星辅助的全球定位系统,汽车里的计算机能给汽车精确定位;随着遥感器的应用,智能汽车能排除不少汽车事故。 Automobiles changed the world during the 20th century, particularly in the United States and other industrialized nations. They are indeed of great use to us, but they have brought some hazards as well, such as noise and air pollution, and highway fatalities. It is reported that automobile accidents rank among the leading causes of death and injury throughout the world. Fortunately modern innovators are reinventing the automobile. New propulsion systems, fuels, designs, and means of manufacturing cars have all developed rapidly in the past decade. For example, by using the satellite-aided global positioning system (GPS), a computer in the automobile can locate the vehicle's precise position, and with the application of sensors, smart cars can eliminate most car accidents.

Unit1 1, There has been this long lull with nothing particular turning up! you are beginning to be anxious because there has been no progress of the war in such a long quiet period… 2,we must "...meet with Triumph and Disaster. And treat those two impostors just the same." We are sure to experience both Triumph and Disaster and we must treat them as the same thing taking different appearances because they are essentially interchangeable. 3,never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense Never give in unless we are convinced that it is honorable and sensible for us to do so. 4,Britain, other nations thought, had drawn a sponge across her slate. Britain, in other nations’ eyes, was completely wiped out/conquered. 5,we have only to persevere to conquer. … we have no choice but to hold on until victory comes. Unit2 1, The phrase "personal space" has a quaint, seventies ring to it The phrase “personal space” sounds old-fashioned and reminds one of the seventies…2, T-shirt weather can make proximity more alluring (or much, much less). … I have suspected that maybe the cause (of the space invasion) is the season: summer may either make people want to be closer to each other or more likely, to keep a distance between each other. 3, The logistics of it vary according to geography people in different regions are given different size of personal space. 4, individuals routinely commandeer booths and sets of facing seats meant for foursomes. …individuals, as usual, occupy the booths and seats which are desi gned for four people. 5,In the same way that the breeze from a butterfly's wings in Japan may eventually produce a tidal wave in California, I have decided to expand the contracting boundaries of personal space. Because the initial invasion of personal space can cause a chain of reactions, which may bring about a catastrophic consequence, as the breeze from a butterfly’s wings in Japan, if it initiates a chain of waves, may eventually produce a tidal wave in California, I have decided to enlarge the shrinking personal space. Unit3 1,Given the relatively few restrictions governing access and usage, it is the communications modal equivalent of international waters As there are relatively few restrictions for reaching and using the Internet, communications via the Internet are comparable to traveling through the international waterways. 2,But much less widely reported has been the notion that the Internet may be responsible for furthering the fragmentation of society by alienating its individual users A lot of people talk about the “new information age”, but not so many people are acquainted with the idea that the Internet separates people form each other and fragments society further as a result
