Unit5 Text A 约翰·肯尼迪就职演说 1961年1月20日,星期五 今天我们并不是在庆祝政党的胜利,而是在庆祝自由的胜利;它象征着一个结束,也象征着一个开始;它意味着一种更新,也意味着一种变革。因为我已在你们和上帝面前,宣读了庄重的誓言,与我们的先辈在175年前所拟定的相同。 现在的世界已大不相同了,因为人类的手中掌握着既能消灭人间的各种贫困,又能毁灭所有人类生命的力量。但我们先辈为之奋斗的相同的革命信念,在世界各地仍然有着争论。这个信念就是:人权并非来自国家的慷慨施舍,而是来自上帝的恩赐。 今天,我们不敢忘记我们是第一次革命的继承者。让我们的朋友和敌人都能够听见我此时此地的讲话:(革命的)火炬已经传给了新一代的美国人——他们出生在本世纪,经历过战争的洗礼和严峻而艰苦的和平的考验,为我国悠久的传统感到自豪——他们不愿目睹或容许我国一向坚持,并且今天仍在国内和国际做出承诺的人权渐趋毁灭。 让每个国家都知道,不论是祝福我们的,还是诅咒我们的,为确保自由的存在和胜利,我们将不惜付出任何代价,承受任何沉重负担,应付任何艰难险阻,支持任何朋友,反对任何敌人。 这就是我们的保证——而且还不止于此。 对于那些和我们有着共同文化和精神渊源的昔日盟邦,我们保证会像对待挚友般忠诚。只要团结起来,在许多需要合作的事业中几乎没有什么事是办不到的。我们如果分歧对立,就会一事无成,因为我们在这种情况下,就不敢应付强有力的挑战。 对于那些我们欢迎其加人到自由国家行列中来的新国家,我们将恪守诺言:决不让一种更为严酷的暴政来取代消失的殖民统治,,我们并不总是指望他们会支持我们的观点,但我们始终希望他们能坚决捍卫自身的自由,而且铭记,在历史上,凡是愚蠢地骑在虎背上谋求权力的人,都是以葬身虎口而告终的。 对那些遍布半个地球的身居茅舍和乡村、为摆脱赤贫桎梏而挣扎的人们,我们保证尽最大努力帮助他们自救,不管需要花多长时间——之所以这样做,并不是因为共产党可能在这样做,也不是因为我们需要他们的选票,而是因为这样做是 正确的,,自由社会如果不能帮助众多的穷人,也就无法保护少数的富人。 最后,对于那些与我们敌对的国家,我们提出的不是保证,而是要求:在科学释放出可怕的破坏力量,把全人类卷入到预谋的或意外的自我毁灭的深渊之前,让我们双方重新开始寻求和平。我们不敢以示弱来引诱他们。因为只有当我们毋庸置疑地拥有足够的军备,我们才能毫无疑问地确信永远不会使用这些军备。 所有这些在最初的100天内不会完成,在最初的1000天内也不会完成,在本届政府仔期内也不会完成,甚至我们在这个星球上的有生之年都不会完成。但是让我们开始行动。同胞们,我们的事业最终成败与否,与其说掌握在我的手中,不如说掌握在你们的手中。自从合众国建立以来,每一代美国人都受到过召唤去证明他们对国家的忠诚。曾经响应召唤而献身的美国青年的坟墓遍及全球。 现在,号角已再次吹响——不是召唤我们拿起武器,尽管我们需要武器,不是召唤我们去作战,虽然我们严阵以待——而是召唤我们为迎接黎明而肩负起漫长斗争的重任,年复——年,“从希望中获得欢乐,在苦难中保持坚韧”,去反对人类共同的敌人:专制、贫困、疾病和战争本身。我们能不能结成一个包括东西南北各方的全球大联盟,以反抗这些敌人,确保人类有更为富足的生活呢?你们愿意加入这场历史性的斗争吗? 在悠久的世界历史中,只有少数几代人被赋·子这种使命,能够在面临最大的危机时捍卫自由,、我们在这场奋斗中所奉献的精力、信念和献身精神,将照亮我们的国家和所有

全新版21世纪大学英语4 unit2课文翻译(A,B)

一位移民的无声挣扎 在老家加纳,我是成功的化身。可是,在美国的生活却一直不容易。 “我想像你那样。你住在城外住宅区,是吗?”年轻人不顾热带阳光的炽烤,面带充满朝气的微笑,用当地俚语问道。他在路边出售着一袋袋的洋葱,身穿超大的T 恤和宽松肥大的牛仔裤——美国流行文化在非洲的广泛影响力的佐证。我受邀在他的洋葱摊位旁坐下小憩片刻,下午将前往阿克拉成交一笔业务。他生意兴隆,在为堵在路上的顾客提供服务的间隙,还不停地问我一些关于美国生活的问题,深信获得一张去美国的签证就像赢得彩票一样幸运。当我为这种令生活在海外的非洲人的虚假形象得以长存的无声文化感到内疚时,我怎么才能告诉他,我羡慕他简朴的生活和无忧无虑的单纯呢? 从外表上看,我是从美国回来探亲的成功人士的典范。我作为一名工程师在底特律工作,身上穿的白色品牌衬衫及与之相配的裤子是直接从底特律的大型购物商场购买的。而在内心深处,我却陷入一种雄心勃勃和文化幻灭交织的迷惘中。我的衣着使人联想到“富裕”,然而我却不能承担大量支付钱财的要求,或把我的财产当作礼物相赠。10年前曾准备抵押房产资助我去美国留学的叔叔阿姨们,现在指望我为打算步我后尘的堂表兄妹提供资金援助。 回到加纳两周之后,返乡的兴奋已经减退。此时的我已身无分文,渴望着返回美国。不过,这一次却不会再有那种曾激励我雄心勃勃地离开的幼稚想法了。想当年,有朝一日重回加纳定居的信念曾赋予我非凡的忍耐力。而现在,面对美国生活的挑战,我更希望永久定居在那里。 美国满足了我学业深造和职场历练的雄心。我来的时候差不多是高中学历,而10年后,我拥有了研究生学位,也有了比较成功的职业生涯。然而,前进的每一步都是通过令人精疲力竭的奋斗取得的。我的大学学费一部分是通过打多份报酬极低的零工挣来的。毕业以后,我很幸运地找到一份工作。可是,适应企业文化需要付出另一种代价。最初,我需要付出双倍的努力才跟得上。渐渐地,我意识到如果缺乏自信,别人就不把你当回事儿,于是便学着装出一副自信满满的样子。迫于裁员潮的威慑,我利用业余时间读了研究生,因为那是我所知道的能在保障工作方面取得优势的唯一办法。当我有资格申请公民身份时,又花了一大笔律师费,并且忍受了充满压力的数年时光,努力应对种种纷繁复杂的情况以获得在美的永久居住权。 这一切就像我连续跑了10场马拉松,在国外的每一年跑一场,我的身体叫嚷着要休息。返乡原本是期待着稍事休息一下,但结果我却感觉仿佛被淹没于一个文化的大熔炉中。一部分的我想要永久地定居在美国,为生活迈进的方向划上句号。另外一部分的我仍旧渴望着自己曾经在加纳熟悉的简单生活——尽管接受这种生活要付出虚幻的代价。我们大多数人离家远行时从不考虑自己会发生多么大的变化,或是有多少令人伤痕累累的挑战将摆在我们面前。我还记得自己的想法曾经一度跟那个洋葱小贩没什么两样。有人看得比较远,给了我一个来美国的机会,所以我还是感到必须作出回报。 也许我该问问自己,我是否真的愿意跟那个洋葱小贩交换地位。内心深处,我知道我的回答是“不”。知识的教化带来了纯真的丧失和一种无声的挣扎。我所经历的文化冲突与来自其他文化的移民在美国所面临的如出一辙。我可以接纳我的新身份——两个国家进步性的融合者并欣然接受其赋予的新责任,而不再去多想自己在两个国家间饱受折磨之事。 奇怪且具有讽刺意义的是,我可以学习洋葱小贩,以愉悦的心情对待生活,尽管它有着种种磨难。如果我掌握好自己的节奏,继续勤奋地工作,我也许就可以享 受在美国的马拉松式的生活,同时为我在加纳的挚爱亲人提供一些有价值的东西。也许正是这一缺失的成份令一种理想幻灭、沮丧失意的生活与一种富有魅力、令人 满意的生活有了区别。

新21世纪大学英语综合教程4 Unit1译文 Harsh Reality of the American Dream 美国梦的严酷现实

美国梦的严酷现实 汉弗莱·霍克斯利 这是西雅图海边阳光明媚、赤日炎炎的一天,穿越海湾能一眼望见远处的岛屿,其自然美景没有受到任何破坏。 人们躺在一片草坪上看书或和恋人相依,一阵充满活力的无伴奏的歌声从草坪的另一端传了过来。原来是一家咖啡馆外面有4位男子正在唱着一首关于丘比特的情歌,每个人都有着不同的音域。围了几圈的人群正摇摆着身体合着节奏拍手。 这家咖啡馆的星巴克徽标让我觉得有一点过时,直到有人提到这是世界上第一家开张的星巴克时我才恍然大悟。 我是因为最近的一次调查来到西雅图的。这项调查是由位于伦敦的经济运转情况中心发起的,旨在了解在世界不同的地方发财致富究竟有多么容易或多么困难——如果不是发财致富,至少也是摆脱贫困。 “如果你生在美国的一个穷人家庭,”其中的一位作者说,“那么比起在欧洲、北欧国家,你更有可能终身贫困,就连在加拿大,一个你觉得和美国差不多的国家,那里的情况也要比美国好。” 机会 这项研究连同伊拉克战争以来愈来愈普遍的反美情绪,让我想到了一个有关美国梦——认为在美国任何事情都有可能实现的想法——的问题。 我之所以选择西雅图不仅仅是因为星巴克诞生在那里,还因为微软、亚马逊图书以及波音飞机都来自这座小城市。如果你愿意将它们称作梦想的话,那么这些小梦想现在已经变成了全球的大品牌。 “天气真不错,是吗?”我转过身来,看到一张布满皱纹、略显疲惫的男人的脸,我称呼他“戴夫”。“你会得到你想要的吗?” 我们几天前见过面,当时他正在一家帮助穷人和无家可归者的慈善机构里吃早饭,我曾问他是否相信美国梦。 “美国梦,”戴夫吃着松饼,用餐巾纸擦了擦嘴说道,“这个嘛,它时来时去。它还会再来的。” 成功者和失败者 在一家天花板很低的餐厅里,有一百来个男人沿着搁板桌并排而坐。 他们5点就开始排队登记了,因为说不定会有工作。然后他们吃饭,而保安则在一边监视他们,以防有什么麻烦发生。 在欧洲或仅仅是边界那一边的加拿大,人们更有可能获得社会保障。但是,这里是美国。在这里,社会被无情地划分为成功者和失败者。 不过,奇怪的是,对于政府的愤恨或指责却很少。美国文化注重的是自力更生与个人奋斗。 “美国梦,”其中一位男子说,他的眼睛炯炯有神,鼻子歪得厉害,一定是在数起斗殴中被打断过多次。“我猜你说的是家、妻子、孩子,以及诸如此类的东西吧。” “这些你有吗?”我说。 “没有,我没有。我曾经有过机会,但我失去了。” 控制 就在马路那边的一家小印刷所里,一位身体健康、若有所思的前空军军官博比·雷·福布斯正在往信封里塞日历。 他的生活因婚姻失败而崩溃。他最终流落街头,不过最近终于找到了一份工作,一直在干。
