1. Growing up in bomb-blitzed Manchester during the Second World War 6
meant times were tough, money was short, anxiety was rife and the pawnshop was a familiar destination for many families, including mine.
7
8
9
2. Yet I could not have asked for more enterprising and optimistic 10
parents. They held our family together with hard work, dignity and 11
bucketloads of cheer. My sturdy and ingenious father could turn his hand 12
to almost anything and was never short of carpentry and handyman work.
13
He even participated in the odd bout of backstreet boxing to make ends 14
meet. For her part, our mum was thrifty and meticulously clean, and her 15
five children were always sent to school well fed, very clean, and attired 16
spotlessly, despite the hard conditions.
17
18
3. The trouble was, although my clothes were ironed to a knife-edge, 19
and shoes polished to a gleam, not every item was standard school uniform 20
issue. While Mum had scrimped and saved to obtain most of the gear, I 21
still didn’t have the pres cribed blue blazer and hatband.
22
23
4. Because of the war, rationing was in place and most schools had 24
relaxed their attitude towards proper uniforms, knowing how hard it was
to obtain clothes. Nevertheless, the girls’ school I attended made it
25
26
strict policy that each of its students was properly attired, and the
27
deputy headmistress who ran the daily assembly made it her mission to
28
teach me a lesson.
29
5. Despite my attempts at explaining why I couldn’t comply, and
30
31
despite the fact that I was making slow progress towards the full uniform,
every day I would be pulled out of line and made to stand on the stage 32
33
as a shining example of what not to wear to school.
34
6. Every day I would battle back tears as I stood in front of my peers,
35
36
embarrassed and, most often, alone. My punishment also extended to being
37
barred from the gym team or to not taking part in the weekly ballroom
dancing classes, which I adored. I desperately wished that just one
38
39
teacher in this horrid school would open their eyes and see all I could
40
do, rather than constantly telling me what I couldn’t do.
41
42
7. However, in my 12-year-old mind I had no choice but to see the
43
punishment through. I knew it was very important not to let my
44
well-meaning mother know about this ritual humiliation. I didn’t dare
45
risk her coming to the school to speak up for me as I knew the blinkered,
46
hard-nosed staff would similarly mortify her and that would mean two of
us unhappy and indignant. And, Heaven forbid, if she ever told my father
47
48
he would have instantly been on the warpath in my defence.
49
50
8. Then one day our family won a newspaper competition for a free 51
photographic portrait sitting. I was beside myself with excitement: my 52
imagination fuelled by glamorous shots of the popular Hollywood temptresses. I couldn’t wait to te ll my friends the thrilling news.
53
54
55
9. That was, until Mum told me that I would have to wear my best,
lace trimmed bright green dress to school that day, as the portrait
56
57
sitting was straight after classes. She had no hint of the torment I faced.
58
10. There was none of my usual pleasure in putting on the
59
60
cherished dress that day. Heavy-hearted, I dragged myself to school, an 61
emerald green target in a sea of blue. At assembly I didn’t bother to wait for the command but trudged up to the stage of my own accord to endure
62
63
the sniggers of the other girls and the beady eyes of the deputy head.
64
11. Tears of frustration threatened to break free as I wondered
65
66
for the umpteenth time why the unfeeling teacher couldn’t look past my 67
clothes for once and see the obedient and eager-to-participate young girl beneath.
68
69
70
12. After assembly our first class was English Literature, my 71
favourite lesson with my favourite teacher. I consoled myself that I could 72
at least lose myself in Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities for a whi le
73
at the back of the class to recover and regain my composure. Imagine my 74
dismay when, immediately the class began, Miss McVee ordered me to come 75
and sit in the front row, directly before her. I slowly rose and, blinking 76
back tears, headed to the front of the class. Surely Miss McVee hadn’t 77
crossed into the enemy camp, too?
78
79
13. With downcast eyes and bowed head, tears once again 80
threatened to betray my dejection, even though I had always tried my 81
hardest not to show how miserable I was at being singled out time after 82
time.
83
84
14. As I took my seat at the front, Miss McVee cocked her head 85
to one side and looked me up and down carefully. And then she came out 86
with the most welcome sentence I had ever heard at that mean-spirited 87
place.
88
89
15. “My dear, I dec lare you are the brightest and loveliest 90
sight in this entire dreary school. I am only sorry that I shall have 91
the pleasure of looking at you for just one lesson and not the entire 92
day.”
93
16. The block of ice that was my young heart thawed instantly
94
95
and my shoulders rose back to their full height. I’m sure the smile I 96
gave that woman must have been the widest she’d ever seen. I floated
through the rest of the day buoyed by the warmth generated by her
97
98
thoughtfully chosen words.
99
17. Although English Literature was her forte, that day Miss McVee 100
101
taught me, and perhaps the whole class, a lesson in compassion that I
102
have never forgotten. She taught me that one kind word in a time of need
can last a lifetime. Indeed, her thoughtful words strengthened a part 103
104
of my soul that has never been weakened by anyone or anything since. 105

108
1. 二战时，曼彻斯特饱受空袭之苦。成长在那里，意味着岁月艰难、钱财109
110
短缺、心情焦虑，也意味着许多家庭都是当铺的常客，包括我家。
111
2. 不过，我的父母最是乐观向上。他们用勤劳、自尊和满屋子的欢笑撑112
113
起了这个家。我父亲身体结实，心灵手巧，他那双手几乎无所不能，从不缺木
114
匠和手工活儿。他甚至偶尔还会参加偏僻街道的拳击比赛来补贴家用。我母亲
勤俭节约，把家收拾得干净利落。尽管条件艰苦，但她总能让自己的五个孩子115
116
吃得饱饱、穿得整整齐齐、干干净净地上学去。
117
3. 问题是：虽说我的衣服熨得有棱有角，皮鞋擦得铮亮铮亮的，可总有118
119
些地方不符合标准校服的要求。尽管母亲缩衣节食为我筹到了大部分装束，但
我仍然没能凑齐学校指定的蓝色运动上衣和帽圈。
120
121
122
4. 由于战争影响，开始实施配给制度，大部分学校也放宽了对正规校服
123
的要求，因为学校明白能有衣服穿已属不易。然而，我就读的女子学校却严格
124
规定，每位学生必须穿正规的校服。于是那位负责每天集合的副校长就将训斥
125
我视为她的任务来做。
126
127
5. 尽管我试图去解释我为何没能按规定着装，尽管我也正逐渐向全套校
128
服靠近，我每天依然会被揪出队列，在台上罚站，作为对违反校服规定者的惩
戒。
129
130
131
6. 我每天站在同学面前，只能强忍泪水，不仅羞愧难耐，而且常常只有
132
我一人挨罚。对我的惩罚还扩大到不能上体操课或者我钟爱的每周一次的交谊
133
舞课。我多么希望在这所可怕的学校里，哪怕只有一位老师能睁开双眼看看我
134
能够做什么，而不是不停地告诉我不能做什么啊！
135
136
7. 不过，12岁的我在心里也毫无选择，只有眼睁睁地挨受惩罚。我明白
137
不能让仁厚的母亲知道我所遭受的这种习惯性羞辱，这点非常重要。我也不敢
冒险让她到学校替我求情，因为我知道那些心胸狭隘、不讲情面的教员们也同138
139
样会令她难堪，这意味着到时我们母女俩都要伤心、愤怒。老天！要是母亲再
140
告诉父亲的话，他立马会大发雷霆，冲到学校来保护我。
141
142
8. 一天，我们全家在一家报纸举办的不收取费用的肖像模特摄影比赛中
获了奖。我为此兴奋不已：那些好莱坞女星魅力四射的照片更令我想入非非。143
144
我迫不及待地想把这个激动人心的消息告诉朋友们。
145
9. 在那之前，母亲告诉我必须穿那件绿色蕾丝镶边裙——我最好的服装146
147
——去上学，因为摄影比赛正好安排在放学之后。她丝毫没有意识到我所要面148
临的痛苦。
149
150
10. 那天，我没有往常穿上这件心爱衣服时的喜悦。我心情郁闷地拖着151
沉重的步伐来到学校，发现自己成为了蓝色海洋中的一颗绿宝石。集合的时候，我没等人下命令就慢步走上台，去承受其他女生的窃笑和副校长那尖刻的眼神。152
153
154
11. 当我第无数次想到，这位老师怎么会如此麻木不仁，竟然从未透过155
我的着装，看看这颗顺从听话、渴望参与的女孩的心灵的时候，沮丧的泪水几156
欲夺眶而出。
157
12. 集合之后的第一节课是我钟爱的英国文学，上课的教师也是我所钟158
159
爱的。我安慰自己说，至少我可以在后排座位上暂时沉浸在查尔斯·狄更斯的160
《双城记》之中，以便能回过神儿镇定下来。可是上课铃一响，麦克维小姐就叫我坐在前排正对她的座位上。可想而知，我当时是多么惊慌失措。我缓慢地161
162
站了起来，忍着泪水，走到前排。心想，麦克维小姐不会也加入到敌人的阵营163
里了吧？

必修一 Unit 1 Friendship ANNE’S BEST FRIEND Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her best friend. Anne lived in Amsterdam in Netherlands during Would WarⅡ.Her family was Jewish so they had to hide or they would be caught by the German Nazi .She and her family hid away for nearly twenty-five months before they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said ,”I don’t want to set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do ,but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty .”Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942. Thursday 15th June 1944 Dear Kitty, I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That’s changed since I was here. …For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon by myself. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at dusk when the window was open. I didn’t go downstairs until the windo w had to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face…. …Sadly…I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains han ging before very dusty windows. it’s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced. Your, Anne 安妮最好的朋友 你想不想有一位无话不谈能推心置腹的朋友或者你会不会担心你的朋友会嘲笑你，会不理解你目前的困境呢安妮弗兰克想要的是第一种类型的朋友，所以她把的日记当作自己最好的朋友。 在第二次世界大战期间，安妮住在荷兰的阿姆斯特丹。她一家人都是犹太人，所以他们不得不躲藏起来，否则就会被德国的纳粹分子抓去。她和她的家人躲藏了将近25个月之后才被发现。在那段时期，她的日记成了她唯一忠实的朋友。她说：“我不愿像大多数人那样在日记中记流水账。我要把我的日记当作自己的朋友，我把我的这个朋友叫做基蒂。”现在，来看看安妮自1942年7月起躲进藏身处后的那种心情吧。 1944年6月15日，星期四 亲爱的基蒂： 我不知道这是不是因为我太久不能出门的缘故，我变得对一切与大自然有关的事物都无比狂热。我记得非常清楚，以前，湛蓝的天空、鸟儿的歌唱、月光和鲜花，从未令我心迷神
Unit 9 How to Grow Old 课文翻译
Unit 9 How to Grow Old Bertrand A. Russell 1. In spite of the title, this article will really be on how not to grow old, which, at my time of life, is a much more important subject. My first advice would be, to choose your ancestors carefully. Although both my parents died young, I have done well in this respect as regards my other ancestors. My maternal grandfather, it is true, was cut off in the flower of his youth at the age of sixty-seven, but my other three grandparents all lived to be over eighty. Of remoter ancestors I can only discover one who did not live to a great age, and he died of a disease which is now rare, namely, having his head cut off. A great-grandmother of mine, who was a friend of Gibbon, lived to the age of ninety-two, and to her last day remained a terror to all her descendants. My maternal grandmother, after having nine children who survived, one who died in infancy, and many miscarriages, as soon as she became a widow devoted herself to women’s higher education. She was one of the founders of Girton College, and worked hard at opening the medical profession to women. She used to relate how she met in Italy an elderly gentleman who was looking very sad. She inquired the cause of his melancholy and he said that he had just parted fro m his two grandchildren. “Good gracious,” she exclaimed, “I have seventy-two grandchildren, and if I were sad each time I parted from one of them, I should have a dismal existence!” “Madre snaturale,” he replied. But speaking as one of the seventy-two, I prefer her recipe. After the age of eighty she found she had some difficulty in getting to sleep, so she habitually spent the hours from midnight to 3 a.m. in reading popular science. I do not believe that she ever had time to notice that she was growing old. This, I think, is the proper recipe for remaining young. If you have wide and keen interests and activities in which you can still be effective, you will have no reason to think about the merely statistical fact of the number of years you have already lived, still less of the probable brevity of your future. 2. As regards health, I have nothing useful to say since I have little experience of illness. I eat and drink whatever I like, and sleep when I cannot keep awake. I never do anything whatever on the ground that it is good for health, though in actual fact the things I like doing are mostly wholesome. 3. Psychologically there are two dangers to be guarded against in old age. One of these is undue absorption in the past. It does not do to live in memories, in regrets for the good old days, or in sadness about friends who are dead. One’s thoughts must be directed to
学士学位英语考试翻译题型解题秘笈
学士学位英语考试翻译题型解题秘笈 在学士学位英语考试复习中，翻译既是重点也是难点，在此提醒考生一定要给予足够重视。外语教育网的小编为考生整理了学士学位英语考试翻译题型解题秘笈，希望考生认真阅读和学习。 翻译部分是03年增加的题型。放在试卷的最后，共有10个小题，考试时间30分钟。翻译试题由两部分组成。第一部分为英译汉，要求考生把阅读理解文章中划线的五个句子译成中文。第二部分为汉译英，要求考生把五个难度适中的中文句子译成英文。英译汉和汉译英的句子难度均低于课文的英语文章。评分标准要求译文达意，无重大语言错误。翻译部分的目的是测试学生词汇、语法、句型方面综合运用语言的能力。 英译汉应试技巧 英译汉是运用汉语把英语所表达的思想准确而完整地重新表达出来的语言活动。在英译汉的过程中，有两点值得我们特别地注意： 1、汉语所要表达的是英语原文的内容，即句子或文章的意义，而不是句子结构； 2、在翻译过程中，英语原文的内容要准确而完整地重新表达出来，而不是将两种语言结构进行简单的转换。 英译汉的过程包括理解，分析句架表达和校核三个阶段,因此，在英译汉的过程中，往往需要考生从英语到汉语，再从汉语到英语反复的推敲。 (一)理解 理解阶段的目的在于读懂英语原文，弄清原文的意思。为了透彻理解原文，建议考生在复习和应试时采取下列步骤： 1、通读全文。通读全文的目的在于从整体上把握整篇文章的内容，理解划线的部分与文章其他部分之间的语法与逻辑关系。在段落中要搞清划线的句子和其他句子之间的关系，因为孤立地阅读划线部分的英语，往往无法理解该部分的真正含义。一篇好的文章，其前后的意思都互相关联，具有很强的逻辑性，一个单词或句子只有在具体的上下文中才能体现出确切的含义来，因此，上下文能帮助我们正确的理解划线的部分，通读全文是很重要的。但是,在通读全文的过程中应该注意，对非划线的部分不要花费时间过多，对于其中一些不太容易理解的内容也不必太在意，只是搞清大体意义即可。因为通读全文的目的在于帮助自己理解划线的部分,只要能把该部分理解透彻也就足够了。 2、分析划线部分的句子结构。从一般的翻译试题来看，划线的部分一般来说结构句子都比较复杂。复杂的句子如果不搞清楚它的语法结构，很难达到正确完整地理解原文的要求。因此正确地把握句子的结构是进行正确地翻译的关键。 3、理解分析划线部分的含义。考生不仅要弄清句子中所有实词和虚词的词汇意义，还要理解全句的整体意义。理解句子的依据除了句子本身之外，还有该句子所处的具体的语言环境。在此阶段应清楚下列问题： (1)句子中是否含有代词和其他具有指代意义的词，如果有，应根据上下文确定它们指代的内容是什么； (2)句子中的短语和一些常用的词往往具有多种含义和用法，那么，在该句中它们的具体含义是什么； (3)按照你的理解，该部分的意义是否与全篇文章的内容一致，有无相互矛盾。 总之,在动手翻译之前，首先要读懂原文，不要一上来就急于动手翻译，这样做往往会出现一种情况:该题快要翻译完了，猛然又发现自己理解有误，马上就急忙修改，搞的卷面上一塌糊涂，而且很容易忙中出错，把本应拿到的分数丢掉了，这是非常令人可惜的。 (二)表达 表达就是译者把自己从英语原文理解的内容用汉语表达出来,理解是表达的基础，表达是理解的结果，但是理解正确并不意味着一定会有正确的表达，平时做翻译练习时有同学反映，有时对原文理解之后还不知如何用汉语表达，就充分说明了这一点。这里介绍两种基本的翻译方法：直译和意译。 1、直译。所谓直译，就是在译文语言条件许可时，在译文中既保持原文的内容,又保持原文的形式。在汉语和英语两种语言中存在着许多共同之处，在对于许多英语句子的翻译过程中,完全可以采取直译的方法，这样可以获得一举两得之功效，既保持了原文的结构，又正确表达了原文的内容。但是直译不是死译和硬译，象It is asserted that…;It is believed that…这一类的结构，如果直译过来那就不伦不类了。 2、意译。汉语和英语分别属于不同的语系，两者在词汇、句法结构和表达方法上具有很多的差异。当原文的思想内容与译文的表达形式有矛盾不易采用直译的方法处理时，就应采用意译法，意译就是不拘泥于原文的形式，重点在于正确表达原文的内容。例如Do you see any green in my eye象这样的句子，只能采取意译的方法，把它翻译为“你以为我是好欺骗的吗”当然,意译并不等于乱译,胡乱地翻译是不符合“忠实”的翻译标准的。 在具体的翻译过程中，我们应该采取灵活的方法，不论是直译还是意译，只要是符合“忠实、通顺”的翻译原则，都是可取的。在翻译的过程中，我们务必注意以下几点： A、理解透彻之后再动手表达，否则表达的结果会令人莫名其妙； B、切忌在翻译时把汉语和英语对号入座，逐字逐句的对号入座的结果往往是不伦不类； C、切忌擅自增减词意，增减意义与翻译技巧中经常提到的增词法与减词法根本就不是一回事。 (三)校核 校核阶段是理解与表达的进一步深化，是对原文内容进一步核实以及对译文语言进一步推敲的阶段，因此，校核是翻译过程中一个很重要的阶段，并不是可有可无的，通过表达之后的校核，我们可以发现译文的一些问题，确保自己理解的内容很有把握地得到分数。在校核阶段，一般应注意与下列各项有关的问题(1)人名、地名、日期、方位和数字等；(2)汉语译文的词与句有无错漏；(3)修改译文中译错或表达不够准确的句子、词组或词汇；(4)有无错别字；(5)标点符号是否有误。 做汉译英时一般应经过以下步骤

Thechaser追逐者中英对照
The Chaser John Collier Alan Auste n, as n ervous as a kitte n, went up certa in dark and creaky stairs in the n eighborhood of Pell Street , and peered about for a long time on the dim landing before he found the n ame he wan ted writte n obscurely on one of the doors. He pushed ope n this door, as he had bee n told to do, and found himself in a tiny room, which contained no furn iture but a pla in kitche n table, a rock in g-chair, and an ordinary chair. On one of the dirty buff-colored walls were a couple of shelves, containing in all perhaps a doze n bottles and jars. An old man sat in the rock in g-chair, read ing a n ewspaper. Ala n, without a word, handed him the card he had been given. 人Sit down, Mr. Austen, said the old man very politely. 人I am glad to make your acqua intance. 人Is it true, asked Alan, 人that you have a certain mixture that has ! er ! quite extraordinary effects? 人My dear sir, replied the old man, 人my stock in trade is not very large ! I don …t deal in laxatives and teething mixtures ! but such as it is, it is varied. I think nothing I sell has effects which could be precisely described as ordin ary. 人Well, the fact is ! began Alan. 人Here, for example, interrupted the old man, reaching for a bottle from the shelf. 人Here is a liquid as colorless as water, almost tasteless, quite imperceptible in coffee, wine, or any other beverage. It is also quite imperceptible to any known method of autopsy. 人Do you mean it is a poison? cried Alan, very much horrified. 人Call it a glove-cleaner if you like, said the old man indifferently. 人Maybe it will clean gloves. I have never tried. One might call it a life-cleaner. Lives need cleaning sometimes. 人I want nothing of that sort, said Alan. 人Probably it is just as well, said the old man. 人Do you know the price of this? For one teaspoonful, which is sufficient, I ask five thousa nd dollars. Never less. Not a penny less. 人I hope all your mixtures are not as expensive, said Alan apprehe nsively. 人Oh dear, no, said the old man. 人It would be no good charg ing that sort of price for a love poti on, for example. Young people who n eed a love poti on very seldom have five thousa nd dollars. Otherwise they would not n eed a love poti on. 人I am glad to hear that, said Alan. 人I look at it like this, said the old man. 人Please a customer with one article, and he will come back whe n he n eeds another. Even if it is more costly. He will save up for it, if n ecessary. 人So, said Alan, 人you really do sell love potions? 人If I did not sell love potions, said the old man, reaching for another bottle, 人I should not have mentioned the other matter to you. It is only whe n one is in a positi on to oblige that one can afford to be so con fide ntial. 人And these potions, said Alan. 人They are not just ! just ! er ! 人Oh, no, said the old man. 人Their effects are permanent, and exte nd far bey ond casual impulse. But they in clude it. Boun tifully, in siste ntly. Everlast in gly. 人Dear me! said Alan, attempting a look of scientific detachme nt.

L ?舒克 成功的形象与表象之间有明显的区别。表象是虚假的现象，要想寻求成功的形象，你必须能够识别这些表象。 有一种形象常被误解，其根源在于人们对目光接触的看法。你不知多少次听到有人说：“他直视你的眼睛,一定是个老实人”。显然，许多人一定认为，不老实的人因说谎而感到惭愧，甚至不能面对他人。但假如老实人因羞怯而不敢直视你呢？况且，骗人的老手知道，许多人根据某人打量他们的方式判断其人品，因此他会故意将目光接触纳入其行为之中。既然你不能依靠目光接触做出灵验的判断，就不该用此法评价他人是否诚实。然而，既然大多数人的确凭此标准判断他人，你务必要经常直视他们的眼睛。 根据一个人打量你的方式评价其诚信并不比根据你的猫或狗对其做出的反应判断其人品更合乎情理。然而，你不知多少次听到狗的主人说：“真有趣——索尔不常喜欢陌生人。他判断人性很在行，他对你友好使我知道你身上有某些优点。”有一次，我来到一位可能成为我客户的人的家中，他的猫“虎仔”对我如此欢喜，竟在我推销产品的整个过程中趴在我的肩上。我推销完毕之后，那人的妻子说道：“舒克先生，虎仔只对我们自家人才会这样。你一定为人忠厚，它才对你这般友好。” 其实当时我没把那只猫推开是因为担心她会撕破我的衣服或抓出我的眼珠。但我却回答道：“是呀，夫人，虎仔显然具有某种能使她能准确判断人性的本能。它的确善于判断人品。”虽然虎仔碰巧正确地判断了我的实情，但我个人却不太相信动物具有判断人类的本能。依我看，动物对人的反应更多与体味和身体动作有关。 有些人根据他人握手的方式判断其人。得体而有力度的握手姿势体现人的个性，而“死鱼”般冷淡无力则不是好兆。我也不喜欢毫无生气、缺乏力度的握手姿势，但却格外小心，并不以此作为判断人的基准。再说，骗人的老手会轻而易举做出热情握手之态。尽管握手之时你应该用力，以便即刻树立一个良好印象，然而下次有人紧握你手之时，可别太当真；这并不能告诉你关于他的具体情况。 某种整洁清秀的外表会树立诚实的形象。譬如，金发碧眼的年轻人，面带稚笑，长相是邻家男孩那种类型，这种典型的美国人的形象几乎总能激起别人的信赖。仅因外表而盲目相信一个人是不合乎逻辑的。然而，大多数人的确如此草率地做出判断。相反，皮肤油黑、黑发油腻、蓄小胡子的邋遢男人不会被人认为其面相诚实。同样，某个女人的长相可能会使人联想到街头妓女的模样，而开价很高的应召女郎可能也会看似娴静清新。自然，衣着和（对女性而言的）化装品与以上所谈的外表问题有很大关系。但不幸的是，不为人所控制的、与生俱来的外貌在大多数人的判断中起着重要的作用。我很同情勤奋老实的推销员，其天生的那幅模样使人不由自主地想到：“他那种人的二手车我可不想买！”另一方面，一个非常阴险的人也许貌似你可信赖的那种人。你怎能肯定一个看似整洁清秀的搭车人不及一个（因为其长相而）貌似危险人物的搭车人危险呢？你怎能肯定此人就一定是个危险人物呢？问题就在于我们往往毫无道理地做出如此草率的决定。 从更大的范围上讲，选民们经常仅因某个政客的外表整洁清秀而对他做出有利的反应。其对手则因没有生就一副令人信任的外表而经常遭到否定的评价。这种判断是错误的，其后果可能是灾难性的。诚然，许多选民投某位候选人的票完全是出于政治原因，但在势均力敌的选举中，不该当选的人会因其整洁清秀的形象而占有优势。
Unit7TheChaser课文翻译综合教程三
Unit 7 The Chaser John Henry Collier 1 Alan Austen, as nervous as a kitten, went up certain dark and creaky stairs in the neighborhood of Pell Street, and peered about for a long time on the dim hallway before he found the name he wanted written obscurely on one of the doors. 2 He pushed open this door, as he had been told to do, and found himself in a tiny room, which contained no furniture but a plain kitchen table, a rocking-chair, and an ordinary chair. On one of the dirty buff-coloured walls were a couple of shelves, containing in all perhaps a dozen bottles and jars. 3 An old man sat in the rocking-chair, reading a newspaper. Alan, without a word, handed him the card he had been given. “Sit down, Mr. Austen,” said the old man very politely. “I am glad to make your acquaintance.” 4 “Is it true,” asked Alan, “that you have a certain mixture that has … er … quite extraordinary effects?” 5 “My dear sir,” replied the old man, “my sto ck in trade is not very large — I don’t deal in laxatives and teething mixtures —but such as it is, it is varied. I think nothing I sell has effects which could be precisely described as ordinary.” 6 “Well, the fact is …” began Alan. 7 “Here, for example,” interrupted the old man, reaching for a bottle from the shelf. “Here is a liquid as colourless as water, almost tasteless, quite imperceptible in coffee, wine, or any other beverage. It is also quite imperceptible to any known method of autopsy.” 8 “Do you mean it is a poison?” cried Alan, very much horrified. 9 “Call it a glove-cleaner if you like,” said the old man indifferently. “Maybe it will clean gloves. I have never tried. One might call it a life-cleaner. Lives need cleaning sometimes.” 10 “I want nothing of that sort,” said Alan. 11 “Probably it is just as well,” said the old man. “Do you know the price of this? For one teaspoonful, which is sufficient, I ask five thousand dollars. Never less. Not a penny less.” 12 “I hope all your mixtures are not as expensive,” said Alan apprehensively.
