第三次英语翻译作业
《理想国》读后感
听老师介绍完《理想国》这本书和柏拉图后，我产生了极大的兴趣，去图
书馆借了两本书来看，终于明白为什么《理想国》常常被选为哲学导论课的教
材了。因为它能帮助人们认清自己是传统的或流行的价值观念的囚徒这一生活
事实，从而帮助我们解脱精神枷锁，反思自己的生活，活得清楚明白。这样的
情怀是柏拉图做哲学的动机。因此我们读《理想国》，不只是能获得哲学知识
与方法，而是要能以此反省自己的价值系统，改进自己的生活方式。
根据前言得知，《理想国》不是一部容易读懂的著作。开头部分类似朋友
的闲聊，人们可以较为轻松地跟上，但是它只是一个序幕，渐渐把人诱入最深
奥的形而上学殿堂。中间极其晦涩的相论和辩证法往往使人百思难解。结尾部
分是一个神话故事，通俗易懂，读者又可以明白了，仿佛穿越了晦暗茂密的丛林，来到草地上安歇。因此我选了几个比较感兴趣的话题来看，例如正义，幸福，欲望，灵魂，理想城邦等等。城邦中的四个美德：智慧，勇敢，节制和正义。有句话很有道理，一个城邦是否智慧和勇敢，不是取决于有多少公民是智
慧和勇敢的，而是有智慧和勇敢的人所占据的地位。在柏拉图看来，勇敢的美
德包括两点：首先它不仅仅是大胆，敢作敢为，而且是对什么事情应当恐惧具
有正确的信念；其次是指抵制快乐和欲望的能力。一个勇敢的人一方面可以抵
挡痛苦和恐惧，另一方面可以抵挡快乐和欲望。而节制是控制自己，控制自己
的激情与物欲，一个城邦是否节制，取决于劳动阶层是否顺从安排，认可他们
低于勇敢智慧的保卫者。什么是正义，它包含三方面的内容:每个人做其自己的事情，每个人拥有他该拥有的东西，每个阶层之间应该互不干预，即每个阶层
做与其本性相适应的那一份工作。这些和我们平时的理解不太相同。
感觉很有趣的是那三个比喻-“太阳比喻”，“线段比喻”，“洞穴比喻”，它们给人的大都是一种诗意的甚至是神秘的暗示，而不是直接的陈述。例如线
段之喻，把现实世界比作一条线段，有不同的实在等级，从最低的影子到具体物，再到数理对象，最高的实在是形式。相应地，人的认知状态也分成不同等级：从最低级的想象到信念，再到思想，最高的认知是理解。这对于不同的读
者来说也是不同等级的世界，不同认知水平的读者得到的是不同等级的理解。
而我们随着学问经历的增长，在不同人生阶段阅读它也会得到崭新的感受。
《理想国》的魅力是无穷的。关于洞穴之喻，设想在一个地穴中有一批囚徒；
他们自小呆在那里，被锁链束缚，不能转头，只能看面前洞壁上的影子。在他
们后上方有一堆火，有一条横贯洞穴的小道；沿小道筑有一堵矮墙，如同木偶
戏的屏风。人们扛着各种器具走过墙后的小道，而火光则把透出墙的器具投影
到囚徒面前的洞壁上。囚壁自然地认为影子是惟一真实的事物。如果他们中的
一个碰巧获释，转过头来看到了火光与物体，他最初会感到困惑；他的眼睛会
感到痛苦；他甚至会认为影子比它们的原物更真实。如果有人进一步拉他走出
洞穴，到阳光下的世界，他会更加眩目，甚至会发火；起初他只能看事物在水
中的倒影，然后才能看阳光中的事物，最后甚至能看太阳自身。到那时他才处
于真正的解放状态，会开始怜悯他的囚徒同伴、他的原来的信仰和生活。如果
他返回去拯救他的囚徒同伴，他得有一段时间去适应洞中的黑暗，并且会发现
很难说服他们跟他走出洞穴。作者想表达的是这些囚徒就是我们这些普通的人，我们这些沉湎于感性世界的芸芸众生。在今日，这洞穴就是我们的日常观念，
洞壁即是我们的报纸，电视与互联网，我们每个人都处在各色各样的洞穴之中，虽然很少人有这种自我意识，能超越我们置身其中的观念洞穴的人就更少了，
因此我们应该反思自己的伦理道德标准的有效性和有限性。
“太阳之喻”讲的是形式与善的关系，而不再是可感物与形式的关系，所
以理解善即是理解善与形式的关系。太阳是视力及可见物的原因，而善是知识
与真理的原因。我们通过眼睛来看美的事物，眼睛有视力，而可感物有被看到
的可能，可是，要让眼中的视力看见美的事物，看见各种形状与颜色，还必须
有第三个因素，那就是光，而光来源于太阳。所以，是太阳使可见事物得以被
看到，使眼睛能看到。通过这个引申到善，善给予了理智理解的能力，给予了
可知事物以形式可知性，而且还是可知事物之所以“是”或存在的原因，有人
认为善是快乐，有人认为善是知识，可都不是，善自身并不是存在，而是在等
级与力量上要高于存在的事物。通过这些我们领会了很多东西的本质内涵，它
不断挑战和启迪我们的思维，让我们对事物有更深刻本质丰富的认识。
有一个议题是堕落的开始与欲望的分类，有缺陷的城邦分为四类，分别是
爱荣誉者，爱财富者，爱自由者，专制人，他们距离相应于理想城邦的人一个比一个远，后一个比前一个更腐败。我们可以这样理解：在贤人政制的统治中，理性是占主导地位的，控制着欲望和激情，而在堕落了的政体统治者中，理性
便与非理性部分展开竞争。荣誉政制相当于激情部分，而另外三种不完美的政
制皆是由欲望占统治地位，而且，有些欲望是必要的，有些则是不必要的，在
不必要的欲望内部再区分出有序的欲望与无序的欲望，有些欲望虽不必要，但
还是有序的，不算太出格。由此可得，爱荣誉者由激情控制，爱财富者由必要
的欲望控制，爱自由者则是由必要的欲望和不必要的欲望一起控制，专制人则
由无序的不必要的欲望统治。在后来的话题“个人的正义与幸福”中提到这几
类人都有自己的快乐观，各自都认为自己是最快乐的，因此就要有客观的标准
来判断谁的说法最真实。没有智慧的人的快乐是不完全真实的，不纯粹的，最
真实的纯粹快乐是知识的快乐，因为那是最真真实实的充满，它远高于身体的
快乐。因此爱智慧者的正义生活是最快乐的，因为它充满了其实的快乐。理性
思想造成的快乐更为真实，因为它关注的是真实不变的事物。幸福是一个人具
有心理和谐的结果，我们的幸福不依赖于他人，不依赖于环境，我们可以通过
发展我们之中的理性，使我们正义，从而获得幸福。
最后一讲讲的是灵魂不朽与死后生活，灵魂离开身体后，与许多其他灵魂
一起来到一奇妙的地方，那里有两个相连的门通往地下，也有两个门通往天上。
判官们宣读了他们的判决后，令正义的灵魂通过右边的门洞向上行，受到奖励，令不正义的灵魂则通过左边的门洞向下行受到惩罚，受够足够的惩罚便可出洞。这些模式让我们懂得做什么样的选择，责任完全在于做选择的人，神是没有责
任的。一般天上地下的灵魂会发生善与恶的互换，因为从地下来的灵魂亲身目
睹了他人的遭遇然后选择时就比较慎重了。

The UN General Assembly, the central political forum, is composed of 193 members, including virtually all the world’s nation-states. Two thirds of its members are developing countries, which account for about three-quarters of the world’s population. Reaching decisions is difficult, especially since all agreements by custom must be reached by consensus（一致）. As a result, important agreements are often held hostage （持有人质）by narrow special interests, and most agreements are reached only by reducing them to their lowest common denominators（共同特性，分母）. But the real question is whether the major countries of the world will allow democracy（民主（政治））to function at the highest level. The Security Council, which is responsible for peace and security, deals with issues of the greatest political importance. The Council has only 15 members so it can meet frequently and deal with crises. Once impotence（无效）due to Cold War rivalries, it has regained much of the authority accorded by the UN charter. 联合国大会是最重要的政治论坛，由193个成员国组成，几乎包括了世界上所有的国家。其中三分之二为发展中国家，这些国家的人口占了全球总人口的四分之三。 大会做出决议并非易事，因为按照惯例所有的协议都必须在成员国之间达成共识。结果，一些重要协议往往因为少数国家的特殊利益而面临被否决的可能，

英文翻译练习（一） The status of Philosophy in Chinese culture has always been regarded as a comparison with that of religion in other cultures. In China, Philosophy is the concerned field by each educated one. Long time ago in China, a person would firstly accept enlightened education in Philosophy if he could be given education. Children should read the Analects, Mencius, The great Learning, The Doctrine of mean once they entered school. The Four Books were regarded as the most important documents after Song(regarded as “new Confucianism”in west).When children began to learn words, the commonly used textbook is Three Words, in which every three words a group, every six words one sentence, and the even sentence rhyme has rhyme, easy to read aloud and easy to remember. In fact, this book is used to learn words for Chinese children. The first sentence of Three Words “Man’s nature is good at birth.” Is the basic idea of philosophy of Mencius.

Americans are much more likely than citizens of other nations to believe that they live in a meritocracy, i.e. Government by people selected according to merit. But this self-image is a fantasy: America actually stands out as an advanced country in which it matters most who your parents were, the country in which those born on one of society’s lower rungs have the least chance of climbing to the top or even to the middle. And if you ask why America is more class-bound in practice than the rest of the Western world, a large part of the reason is that our government falls down on the job of creating equal opportunity. The failure starts early: in America, the holes in the social safety net mean that both low-income mothers and their children are all too likely to suffer from poor nutrition and receive inadequate health care. It continues once children reach school age, where they encounter a system in which the affluent send their kids to good, well-financed public schools or, if they choose, to private schools, while less-advantaged children get a far worse education. 美国人可能比任何其他国家的人都更相信他们生活在一个精英制度之下，人们推选的政府也是据其优势。然而，这个自我形象是一种幻想：作为先进国家，实际上美国的突出特点是出身至关重要，在这个国度里，来自社会底层的人几乎没有机会爬到社会中层，更不用说社会顶层。 如果你要问为什么实际上美国比其他西方国家都要阶级分明，主要原因就是我们的政府在创造公平机会方面的失败。 这种不公平很早以前就开始了：在美国，由于社会安全网存在漏洞，这就意味着低收入的母亲和他们的孩子完全有可能存在营养不良，得不到足够的医疗服务。孩子到了上学年龄这种情况也不会得到改观，他们所遇到的体制是富人可以送自己的孩子到资金充足的好的公立学校上学，如果愿意，还可以从送到私立学校上学，而穷人孩子接受的教育却非常差。

翻译第三次作业：请大家翻译下文中黑体划线部分。祝大家学习愉快啊！ Most Americans have great vigor and enthusiasm. They prefer to discipline themselves rather than be disciplined by others. They pride themselves on their independence, their right to make up their own minds. They are prepared to take the initiative, even when there is a risk in doing so. They have courage and do not give in easily. They will take any sort of job anywhere rather than be unemployed. They do not care to be looked after by the government. The average American changes his or her job nine or ten times during his or her working life. Americans have a warmth and friendliness which is less superficial than many foreigners think. They are considered sentimental. When on ceremonial occasions they see a flag, or attend parades celebrating American's past, tears may come to their eyes. Reunions with family and friends tend to be emotional, too. They like to dress correctly, even if “correctly”means flamboyantly. They love to boast, though often with tongue in cheek. They can laugh at themselves and their country, and they can be very self-critical, while remaining always intensely patriotic. They have a wide knowledge of everyday things, and a keen interest in their particular city and states. Foreigners sometimes complain, however, that they have little interest in or knowledge of the outside world. The Americans have a passion for grandeur. Their skyscrapers, bridges and dams often have a splendor which matches in beauty and scale the country's natural wonders. Is the sole aim of most Americans to make money and possess luxuries which could be called excessive? The majority of Americans would certainly deny this, though most feel proud to amass wealth and possessions through hard work. In the USA, about 90% of the population is well enough off to expect a brighter future. The USA still has one of the highest standards of living in the world, although, at the present time, 10% are below what the Government considers to be the “poverty line.”While these underprivileged people receive help from the Government, they have no high hopes for their future. It is from this “underclass,”and those who take advantage of it, that most of the violence springs the violence which is one of the least pleasant aspects of American society. Americans are beginning to realize that this terrible problem of poverty is their problem and not just the Government’s. It has been said that the individual American is generous, but that the American nation is hard. The USA is reputed to be a classless society. There is certainly not much social snobbery or job snobbery. The manual worker is usually quite at ease in any company. This is partly explained by the fact that people of all income groups go together to the same schools. Americans are far more race-conscious than they are class-conscious.

Translation Task 2 I Translate the underlining part into Chinese. The Thanks We Give Editorial of The New York Times It's not the turkey alone we're grateful for. Not the cranberry sauce or the stuffing or even the pumpkin pie. Some of the people seated at the table are strangers --- friends of friends, cousins of in-laws --- and some are almost desperately familiar, faces we live and work with every day. In any other week, today would merely be Thursday and the gathering of all these people--- the cooking and serving and cleaning --- a chore. But today it doesn't feel that way. The host---perhaps it's you--- stands up and asks that we give thanks, and we do, each in our own way. And what we're thankful for is simply this, the food, the shelter, the company and, above all, the sense of for granted the things we almost always take for granted. We try, if only in that brief pause before the eating begins, to see through the well-worn patterns of our lives to what lies behind them. In incompatible with the gratitude- not to mention the abundance --- that Thanksgiving summons. It's tempting to think that one Thanksgiving is pretty much like another, except for differences in the guest list and the recipes. But it isn't true. This is always a feast about where we are now. Thanksgiving reflects the complexion of the year we're in. Some years it feels buoyant, almost jubilant in nature. Other years it seems marked by a conspicuous humility uncommon in the calendar of American emotions. II Correct the inappropriate part in the following sentences. 1. We discovered this long ago but were never able to successfully solve the problem. 2. I hope you will sit down together to carefully study and discuss this question. 3. China is of special importance to the world and is related to the stability and security of the international situation. 4. We must continue to strengthen basic research and increase scientific and technological strength and staying power for future development. 5. In areas that are suitable for the production of grain, a good job must be done in grain production and efforts be made to raise per-unit yield, increase variety, and improve quality.

Unit1 Ⅳ. Translation It is evident that many branches of applied science are practical extensions of purely theoretical or experimental work, thus the study of radioactivity began as a piece of pure research, but its results are now applied in a great number of different ways—in cancer treatment in medicine, the development of fertilizers in agriculture, the study of metal fatigue in engineering, in methods of estimating the ages of objects in anthropology and geology, etc. A.另一方面，应用科学直接涉及将纯科学的有效定律（即理论科学——译注） 应用于生活实践，应用于人对自身环境的控制，从而导致新技术、新工艺、以及新机器设备的发展。像这样一些活动，如研究材料的强度和用途，将纯数学的研究结果扩大用于改进农业或社会科学采用的抽样过程，以及发掘原子能的种种潜力，这些都是应用科学家，即技术专家的工作的事例。显然，许多应用科学实际上都是由纯理论和实验工作发展而来的。例如，对放射性的研究开始时是作为一项纯理论来研究的。但是其成果现在则应用于很多不同方面：在医学中治疗癌，在农业中研制化肥，在工程学中研究金属疲劳，在人类学和地质学中估算研究对象的年龄等等。 B. 1. 超级市场连同消费者都遭到了通货膨胀的沉重打击。 2. 这座金属塔的用途是把电视信号传送到边远的山村。 3. 他14 岁时第一次以钢琴家身份登台表演。 4. 不管凭什么借口，外人都不得入内。 5. 谎言再多也无法掩盖事实。 6. 教学改革以来，我们学校的学科发展得到了进一步加强，整体学科布局得到了进一步优化。学科的整合促进了多学科间的相互影响。我们还建立了一些跨学科组织。在此基础上，我们学校建立和改建了许多科研和技术转让的平台，为多学科和跨学科的发展和研究提供了更有利的条件。 B. 1.

Since the educational reform, the discipline development in our university has been further strengthened and overall discipline arrangement optimized. The integration of disciplines has promoted the multi-discipline interaction. Several new cross-disciplinary groups have been set up.

AC500kV Substation Design In China Transmission and Substation Department,CPECC Abstract:Some brief informations about AC500kV substations in China,historical data of their design and essential design principles are presented in this paper.Some technical and engineering problems of AC500kV substation design and construction are discussed.It is emphasized to introduce the500kV substation scales,main electrical connections,selection of equipment and apparatus,insulation coordination,distribution switchyard,control and protection etc.Here we also discuss the policy of project cost control at present time and a prospective view of China AC substations in future. 1.Introduction The research and design of500kV substations in China were started in1977,and the first substation was put into operation in1981.From that time,because of the rapid development of electricity demand in China,design and construction of500kV substations have a great development.Especially in recent years,due to the increase of capital investment for power system construction from the State Government,500kV power system has developed even faster.Till1998about55substations(500kV)were already put into operation,in which217transformers were installed,and the total capacity reached60410 MVA.At present,there are30substations(total capacity26500MVA)under construction.In addition,it has been planned to construction/extends30substations(33transformers,24750 MVA)in accordance with the power delivery from Three Gorges Power Plant. A complete design system of AC500kV substation in China has been gradually established based on the past design and construction experiences and the use of new technologies.This system includes design procedures,design standards,rules and regulations, design management and so on. The essential design principles are safe and reliable,technically advanced,economical and reasonable,and good quality. 2.Size of Substations China is a developing country with broad territory.The economic development is very different from one region to another.In accordance with this fact,the500kV substation size is different at different time and for different region.
