In the past year, however, software companies have developed tools thatallow companies to push information directly out to consumers, transmittingmarketing messages directly to targeted customers.[参考译文] 但是,在过去的一年间,软件公司已经开发出工具,使得公司可以直接将信息推出给顾客,直接把营销讯息传递给目标顾客.7.

Other models exist that are hybrids of these three, such as delayed open-access, where journals allow only subscribers to read a paper for the first six months, before making it freely available to everyone who wishes to see it.2. The bodies playing major professional sports have changed dramatically over the years, and managers have been more than willing to adjust team uniforms to fit the growing numbers of bigger, longer frames.3. For example, changes in the economy that lead to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment in general make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain.4. As a linguist, he acknowledges that all varieties of human languages, including non-standard ones like Black English, can be powerfully expressive—there exits no language or dialect in the world that cannot convey complex ideas.5. Studies of both animals and humans have shown that sex hormones somehow affect the stress response, causing females under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditions.6.

(01) (10-R-1)【译文】我们甚至感到陌生的是：从20世纪初期到第二次世界大战之前，这一期间的英国报纸评论内容不拘一格。
那时候报纸非常便宜，而且人们认为发表时尚的人文批评可以给刊登评论的出版物增加色彩。
分解】句子的主干为:“We are … removed from … reviews （句子主干部分）… at a time （时间状语）… ”。
细化分析：“published”过去分词短语修饰“reviews”，其后紧接“in England”与“between …”地点和时间状语。
之后，“at a time”与“between”之间相互解释，“time”之后的“when”引导修饰其的时间定语从句。
(02) (10-R-1)【译文】纽曼说，“具有才智或文学天赋让自己在新闻从业中面对困难坚持不懈的作家如此之少，以至于我总想把新闻业定义成一个“受贬低的术语”，即“不受读者喜爱作家对受读者喜爱作者的称呼”。
【分解】句子的主干为:“So few … have … （主句主干部分）… that （引导结果状语从句）I am tempted to （从句部分的主谓）… ”。
细化分析：整个句子只要理顺了“so … that”的倒装结构（前半部分是倒装的）就不难理解了。
主句中，“to keep … journalism”不定式修饰“brains or gift”部分。
从句中有“define … as”介词短语。
最后，“of contempt”修饰“a term”，“applied …（to）…”也修饰“a term”。

1.美国最感到自信的事情是认为强劲的经济增长会永远持续下去。
Nothing has been more central to America's self-confidence than the faith that robust economic growth will continue forever.2. The profound boost that these innovations gave to economic growth would be difficult to repeat. Only once could transport speed be increased from the horse (6 miles per hour) to the Boeing 707 (550 mph). Only once could outhouses be replaced by running water and indoor plumbing. Only once could indoor temperatures, thanks to central heating and air conditioning, be converted from cold in winter and hot in summer to a uniform year-round climate of 68 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit这些革新对经济增长的深层推动作用是很难再现的。
交通运输的速度从马匹（六英里/小时）提升到波音707（550英里/小时）的机会只有一次。
户外厕所被自来水和室内管道取代的机会只有一次。
室内的温度（因为中央供暖系统和空调的出现）从冬冷夏热变成全年保持68至72华氏度恒温的机会只有一次。
3. Over the past decade, the economy has been burdened by oil prices between $50 and $150 per barrel, which have sapped purchasing power available for nonenergy consumption. Holding these prices at bay is progress, to be sure, but it can't compare to the 1960s, when 'See the U.S.A. in your Chevrolet' became ever more possible along an expanding interstate highway system when gasoline cost 25 cents a gallon在过去的10年中，每桶50至150美元的石油价格让经济背上了负担，削弱了非能源消费领域的购买力。
控制住石油价格的确是一个进步，但是那已经不能和1960年代同日而语了，那时候一加仑汽油只要25美分，沿着日益扩展的州际公路系统“开着你的雪佛兰(Chevrolet)领略美国”的可能性前所未有。
4. From 1993 to 2008, income growth among the bottom 99% of earners was 0.5 points slower than the economy's overall growth rate. If future output grows, as I expect, at a rate of just 1% a year, that means the overwhelming majority of Americans will see their incomes grow just 0.5% annually.从1993年到2008年，社会底层99%的工薪族的收入增长速度比总体的经济增长率慢0.5个百分点。
如果未来的产出如我所料，仅仅以每年1%的速度增长，那就意味着绝大多数美国人每年的收入只能增加0.5%。
5. It allows a sort of window into how the brains of people who have different cognitive processing abilities are processing the same stimuli in different ways,” said Kristina Visscher, a neurobologist at the University of Alabama School of Medicine who did not work on the study. “这个研究让我们看到，拥有不同认知处理能力的人，大脑是如何用不同方式处理同一个刺激物的。
”克里斯蒂娜·维斯切如是说，她是阿拉巴马大学医学院一位神经学家，并没有参与此次的研究。
6. Visscher called bilingualism a “beautiful natural experiment”, because people grow up speaking two languages, and studies have shown that they reap certain cognitive benefits from switching between lang uages and determining which to respond with based on what’s going on around them. The University of Kentucky researchers took it a step further by using brain imaging, which she said was “exciting.”维斯切将双语称为是一个“美丽的自然的实验”。
研究显示，通过语言转换、根据周围的环境判断应该如何回应，说着两种语言长大的人能够在认知方面得到某些特定的益处。
肯塔基大学的研究者们又进了一步，用脑成像的方式进行实验，维斯切说这种尝试“令人激动”。
7.Don't take things so personally. Part of what creates stress is thinking that what other people do is something that is being done to us, or is a reflection of us or our actions.不要再觉得别人是在说你啦！产生压力的原因之一就是认为别人的所说所作是在针对你作的某件事。
同时，也不要认为别人的某些行为是对于你的行为的反应，这是不必要的。
If you expect a co-worker to always be nice and they continue to be cranky, you'll be disappointed. You are choosing to be disappointed when you expect others to do something even when you have evidence to suggest that the behavior is highly unlikely.8. Express your needs. Deciding to take responsibility for meeting your own needs is liberating. Without this decision, you lose time and energy waiting for others to figure out what you need and how, expecting them to deliver. If you need to hear compliments, say so. If you need to have more explanation, say so. It's up to you to get your own needs met and no one will know what they are better than you.请表达出你的需要。
当你决定表达并满足自己的需求时，你将会得到解放。
如果你不做出这个决定，你只能浪费时间和精力等待着别人去代你表达并帮你满足。
如果你想听到别人的赞扬，就大声告诉他们吧。
如果你需要更多的解释，也请表达出来吧。
你的需要能否得到满足完全取决于你自己。
没有人会比你更了解你自己的需求。
9. You can't control the actions of others, but by keeping your cool, you avoid contributing to continued stressful conversations. It takes two to argue and if you're not the one who starts it and you refuse to finish it, you'll likely have much less of it to experience. Remove your part in what creates stressful situations and those who have stress to share will have to go elsewhere.你不能控制别人的行为。
但是通过使你自己冷静，你可以避免继续一段有压力的交谈。
一场争论需要两个人，如果你不是发起的那个也拒绝回应争端，你在争论后会舒服很多。
在有压力的情形下尽量减少你自己的部分，这样那些有压力的人只能将他们的压力传导给别人啦。
10.We often find ourselves trying to figure out ways to be successful; initiating ideas that could be stepping stones towards the goals we set out.我们总是在努力寻找成功的途径；这些最初的想法最终会成为我们实现理想的垫脚石。
