We should decide what to commend and praise, what not to and what to oppose.（for clarity, verbal omission）Winners and LosersThe word ‘winner’ and ‘loser’ have many meanings. When we refer to a person as a winner, we do not mean one who makes someone else lose. To us, a winner is one who responds authentically by being credible, trustworthy, responsive, and genuine, both as an individual and as a member of a society.Winners do not dedicate their lives to a concept of what they imagine they should be; rather, they are themselves and as such do not use their energy putting on a performance, maintaining pretence, and manipulating others. They are aware that there is a difference between being loving and acting loving, between being stupid and acting stupid, between being knowledgeable and acting knowledgeable. Winners do not need to hide behind a mask.Winners are not afraid to do their own thinking and to use their own knowledge. They can separate facts from opinions and don’t pretend to have all the answers. They listen to others, evaluate what they say, but come to their own conclusions. Although winners can admire and respect other people, they are not totally defined, demolished, bound, or awed by them.Winners do not play ‘helpless’, nor do they play the blaming game. Instead, they assume responsibility for their own lives.【参考译文】“成功者”和“失败者”这两个词含义很多。

当我们称某人为“成功者”时，我们并非指他是一个让别人失败的人。

对我们来说，成功者是这样一个人，无论作为个人抑或社会的一分子，他的一切反应均由衷而发，富有诚信，值得信赖，反应敏捷，从不虚伪。

成功者不会穷其毕生之精力，执着于自我之臆想。

相反，他们会保持自己的本色。

正因如此，他们不装腔作势，不自命不凡，不对别人指手画脚。

他们知道，真爱不同于装爱、真傻有异于装傻、博学有别于卖弄。

成功者无需面具来伪装。

成功者无畏于独立思考，无畏于独立判断、独当一面。

他们能够在事实与传闻之间明辨是非，不会假称自己无所不晓。

他们倾听别人意见，择善从之，最终得出自己的结论。

成功者敬仰尊重他人，但也不会受制于人、不会被他人所摧垮、不被他人所束缚、不会被他人所吓倒。

成功者不故意“示弱”，也从不怨天尤人。

他们会毅然肩负起人生的责任。

A summary of Soft power and American foreign policy1班朱佰文In this excerpt, the author contradicts the advocate of American Imperialism from two angles: the reality and the history. And he lays such misunderstandings at the door of America’s foreign policies, which has weakened the soft power of America. In addition, the author also exhorts Americans not to be misled by the unreal metaphor in the global information age.The realityBecause some people are proud of the metaphor of American Empire and intend to support hegemonic foreign policies, which will harm the soft power, it is necessary to point up the danger of this tendency.In recent years, America’s soft power has declined a lot due to its foreign policies. In 2003, anti-Americanism mood got to the top. Relevantly, more and more teenagers are resisting America’s policies and it has spread to economy, movies and something else. Besides, other countries have also generated the same mood. Some refuse to cooperate with America in the war on terrorism. For instance, Pakistan and others begin to question the real aim of America’s international actions, especially the military actions, such as the unpopular Iraq War. By and large, these adverse results are all related to the decline of America’s soft power, which is caused by America’s foreign policies and finally reacts on them.However, it was another situation not so long ago when America had not been misled by the delusion of American empire. With a series of wise foreign policies, America set a positive image and could easily get what they wanted through international cooperation. And here are some convictive examples. The military success in Afghanistan depended on close civilian cooperation on the basis of sharing. When it comes to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the US-Japan security treaty, it is clearer to see that a strong soft power benefits America greatly.America looks down upon the UN, gets into enmity and isolation, excessively believes in its military force and has not been aware of such situations. What’s more, the international situation has changed a lot and the greatest threats to every country are no longer from each other but from transnational terrorism and weapons of mass destruction, especially their combination. Under such circumstances, America is not able to solve problems by itself. Even if this is possible, America will have to pay a big price that could have been avoided. Therefore, America should combine its hard power and soft power, share and cooperate with other countries in this international information age.The historyIn this part, the author argues that America was not and will never be an empire. Firstly, he points up that the term “American empire”is just a metaphor and urges people not to be misled. Secondly, although America is stronger in economic and military fields than other countries, it is not objective to define America as an empire because America has never taken direct political control over others as the real empires used to do. Finally, America’s institutions and people have never agreed to act like an empire and the history has also proved that America’s regime could not afford what an empire needs.In conclusion, the author wants to prove that America is not an empire and to urge people not to take the metaphor seriously. Instead, the soft power and the wise foreign policies should be the focus in this international information age.。
