完型鉴于电子货币的优势,你也许会认为,我们将快速步入无现金社会,实现完全电子支付。
然而,真正的无现金社会很可能不会马上到来。
事实上,这样的预测已经出现二十年了,但迄今还没有实现。
例如, 1975 年《商业周刊》预测电子支付手段不久将“彻底改变货币本身的定义”,并将在数年后颠覆货币本身。
为何人们进入无现金社会的速度如此缓慢呢?尽管电子支付手段可能比纸币支付方式更加高效,然而以下几个方面解释了纸币系统“不会”消失的原因。
第一,使电子货币成为最主要的支付方式必须的设备包括电脑、读卡器和电信网络,而安装这些设备价格昂贵。
第二,纸质支票有提供收据这一优势,这是消费者不愿放弃的。
第三,使用纸质支票可以让开票人多几天让钱“悬浮”在帐户里,对方得花上几天才能凭支票取现,这也就是意味着开票方又多赚了几天利息钱。
而由于电子支票是即时的,因此也就没有这种优势。
第四,电子支付方式还有可能存在安全和隐私隐患。
我们曾多次听到媒体报道说某个非法黑客入侵了用户的数据库并且篡改了里面的信息。
这种情况时有发生,这也意味着别有用心之人可能侵入电子支付系统,盗取别人的银行帐号而盗款成功。
要防止这类诈骗并非易事,正在研发新的电脑科学领域来处理该类安全问题。
此外,人们对于电子支付方式的担忧在于进行电子交易之后所留下的包含个人信息的痕迹。
人们担心政府部门,雇员和市场营销人员会看到这些数据,侵犯个人隐私。
Text1在一篇名为(entitled)《成功(make it)在美国》的文章中,作者亚当·戴维森讲述(relate)了这样一个源自棉花出产国的笑话,笑话是关于现代纺织(textile)作坊(mill)已高度自动化(automate):现如今,一家普通作坊里只有两名员工,“一个人和一条狗,人在作坊里是为了喂狗,狗在作坊里是为了使人远离(away from)机器。
”Davidson’s article is one of a number of pieces that have recently appeared making the point that the reaso n we have such stubbornly high unemployment and declining middle-class incomes today is also because of the advances in both globalization and the information technology revolution, which a re more rapidly than ever replacing labor with machines or foreign workers. 最近出现了很多(a number of)类似戴维森所写的文章,它们都表明了这样一种看法(make a point):之所以失业人数(unemployment)居高难下(stubbornly high)和中产阶级(middle-class)收入(income)持续下降,原因是全球化与信息技术革命已经取得了诸多进步,它们使得机器和国外员工在取代(replace .. with)本国劳动力(labor)方面比以往任何时候都要迅速。
大学英语第二版第二、六单元的课文翻译

大学英语第二版第二、六单元的课文翻译-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company One1第二单元富足的一生首次面对这个问题,是在2003年12月初,我第一次为救世军摇铃募捐的时候。
当时我就站在沃尔玛商场入口处门外,对每一位向我的红壶里投入捐款的人都报以一声“谢谢”和一个微笑。
一位穿着整洁的妇人牵着她的幼子向放壶的台子走过来。
她在钱包里摸着找钱时,孩子抬头看了我一眼,问我:“你穷吗?”当时他的眼里充满疑惑和好奇,时至今日仍历历在目。
“嗯,”我结结巴巴,边想边回答,“我比有些人拥有的多,但比其他人拥有的少。
”母亲因为孩子问了一个人在社交上不该问的问题,训斥了他一顿,他俩便匆匆地赶去购物,但是孩子的问题却一直留在我的心头挥之不去。
我从不认为自己“穷”,但有些事实我不可否认,每当我填1040税务中报表时,我都属于收入最低的档次之一,在过去的三十五年中,我只出去度过一次假,我的电视机时黑白的,还是八年前别人送给我的。
然而,想要得到其他那么多人都有的物质的东西,对我来说,只不过是转瞬即逝的念头而已。
我的汽车是1999年的产品,到现在开了十万五千英里,已经很破很旧了,但是它依然可靠,我的住房不大,但是很安静,住着挺舒心。
我的衣服很合适于我的工作,主要都在户外。
我对计算机的很少的需求,可以在图书馆得到解决。
尽管有些东西我没有,我并不感到贫穷。
这是为什么?五十三年来我一直非常健康。
我不但不生病,而且精力充沛,情绪饱满。
锻炼对我而言是确确实实的快事,我乐意长距离步行,越走越有劲。
我喜爱步行后随之产生的一种“什么都干得了”的心态。
我还十分珍惜我的创作才能。
当我写出美丽的诗句或编造出能把人逗乐的笑话时,我内心感到很富有。
通过写作而获得的洞察力,不断地令我惊奇。
而与那么多写作朋友交谈,是我乐趣的主要源泉之一。
但是在我生活中,有一个重要方面我并不那么富有。
在一个对物资财富的追求投入如此之多心力的社会中,我觉得很不自在。

【关键字】大学Unit 1 Praise and GratitudeThere Is Magic in a Word of Praise赞美之词的魔力一次,一位百老汇喜剧演员做了一个噩梦:他梦见自己在一个座无虚席的剧场里讲故事、唱歌,数以千计的人们看着他—但是没有人笑或拍手。
“即使一个星期能赚10万美元,”他说,“那也像人间地狱一般。
”不仅演员需要掌声,没有赞扬和鼓励,任何人都会失去信心。
因此,我们都有着双重需求:被别人称赞以及懂得如何去称赞别人。
说赞美的话是有技巧的,有正确的说法。
比如,因为某些显而易见的成就而去表扬一个人,这不是真正的赞扬。
你得运用辨别力和创造力。
“您今晚的演讲很精彩、很有说服力,”一次,一位和蔼可亲的女士对一位商人说,“我禁不住想,您肯定也能当一名出色的律师。
”听到这意外的溢美之词,那位商人像个男生般地脸红了。
无论声名显赫还是默默无闻,没有一个人会对真诚的赞赏无动于衷。
耶鲁著名的英语教授威廉·里昂·费尔普斯讲述道:“一个炎热的夏日,我走进一家拥挤的饭馆吃中饭。
服务员递给我菜单时,我说,‘今天厨房里的小伙子们肯定在受罪!’服务员惊讶地看着我说:‘来这儿的人都抱怨菜的味道不好,对服务评头论足,还埋怨太闷热。
19年了,你是第一个对后面厨房里的厨师们表示同情的人。
’ 人们所需要的,”费尔普斯下结论道,“是作为人能得到一点点关注。
”在那种关注中,真诚是至关重要的。
当劳作了一天的男人回家时看见孩子们将脸贴在窗上、张望着等待他,他也许会感到这种无声而珍贵的语言如甘露一般涤荡了他的心灵。
孩子们尤其渴望鼓励。
童年时如果得不到善意的赞赏,将会危及性格的发展。
一位年轻妈妈向A·W·比文牧师讲述了一件让人伤心的事:“我的小女儿常常不听话,我不得不批评她。
但是有一天,她特别乖,没有做一件会挨批评的事。
当天晚上,我给她盖好被子、准备下楼时,听见她在抽泣。
我走回去,发现她把头埋在枕头里。

Unit 1 Learning, Chinese-Style中国式的学习风格Howard Gardner 霍华德•加德纳1 For a month in the spring of 1987, my wife Ellen and I lived in the bustling eastern Chinese city of Nanjing with our 18-month-old son Benjamin while studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary schools. But one of the most telling lessons Ellen and I got in the difference between Chinese and American ideas of education came not in the classroom but in the lobby of the Jinling Hotel where we stayed in Nanjing.1987年春,我和妻子埃伦带着我们18个月的儿子本杰明在繁忙的中国东部城市南京住了一个月,同时考察中国幼儿园和小学的艺术教育情况。

2 The key to our room was attached to a large plastic block with the room number on it. When leaving the hotel, a guest was encouraged to turn in the key, either by handing it to an attendant or by dropping it through a slot into a box. Because the key slot was narrow, the key had to be positioned carefully to fit into it.我们的房门钥匙系在一块标有房间号的大塑料板上。
