新世纪大学英语阅读教程4(第二版) U1Part2 文章翻译

新世纪大学英语阅读教程4 U1Part2 文章翻译Unit 1 SuccessPart 2来自足球的成功教训——如何在人生的比赛中获胜或失败1 足球比赛就是进球和获胜。

因此,足球是生活的一面镜子,因为许多人也想实现目标,成为生活游戏中的赢家。

总的来说,我们可以从足球运动员、教练和评论员身上学到很多关于生活的东西。

2 当你听足球比赛的解说时,他们在球队获胜时反复用的关键词是关于性格和态度的词,如信念、兴奋、信心、努力等。

足球技巧和策略很重要,但没有正确的态度,就没有什么意义。

3 球队经理敦促他们的球员表现出专注、决心和最大的努力。

他告诉对手,不管对手有多么出名,他们都应该期待胜利,不要对对手表现出太多的尊重。

4 我喜欢听伟大的足球教练的评论。

他们都去过地狱又回来了。

当他们的球队获胜时,他们受到赞扬和欢迎。

当他们的球队没有赢得比赛时,他们会受到批评,甚至被解雇。

他们知道得意的高度和绝望的深度。

他们必须找到解决这两个问题的方法,并不断激励他们的球队取得胜利。

5 2005年,戈登·斯特拉坎出任苏格兰两大顶级俱乐部之一凯尔特人队的主教练。

不久他就经历了“我一生中最糟糕的一夜”。

6 在冠军联赛,欧洲的顶级联赛,布拉迪斯拉发,以5-0击败了凯尔特人。

他的手表在比赛结束后停了下来,他仍然戴着它来提醒自己那是他一生中最糟糕的一个晚上。

凯尔特人,苏格兰的骄傲,被一支不那么出名的球队羞辱了。

7 相比之下,其他的失败对他来说似乎微不足道。

我们都可以通过提醒自己过去最糟糕的情况,或者想象我们的生活比实际情况糟糕多少来学会处理困难的情况。

8 没有人确切知道明天或发生什么事。

我们可能会发生重病甚至死亡。

戈登已经面对过这种可能性。

他告诉媒体,他希望自己的墓碑上刻上这样的文字:9 这比在布拉迪斯拉发的那个晚上好多了。

10 当事情出错时,他用夸张的幽默来对付媒体的批评。

当他的球队在苏格兰输掉一场比赛时,一位记者评论道:11 “砰,这就是你们的不败纪录。

新世纪大学英语阅读教程4 U1 Part1+Part2 文章翻译Unit 1 SuccessPart 1“普通人”是如何脱颖而出的1 在大学里,吉姆似乎是个典型的快速成功的人。

他不费什么力气就取得了好成绩,他的同学都认为他是“最有可能成功的人”。

毕业后,他可以自由选择各种工作。

2 吉姆加入了一家大型保险公司的销售部,一开始干得不错。

然而,他很快进入了平稳期,并转到了一家较小的公司,在那里他也达到了平稳期。

厌倦了销售,他尝试了销售管理。

同样的模式又出现了:他很受欢迎,被认为是个可以快速成功的人,但很快就像湿爆竹一样发出了嘶嘶声。

如今,他又在为另一家公司销售保险,并想知道自己为什么没有做得更好。

3 还有约瑟夫·达瑞格。

“我一直认为自己是个普通人,”达瑞格告诉我。

“我进入了人寿保险行业,并且做得还相当不错。

侥幸地,我进入了由业内几位最大的销售人员组成的委员会。

我非常害怕。

”4 然而,当达瑞格了解到这些有成就的人之后,他意识到:“他们和我一样都不是天才。

他们只是些志存高远的普通人。

然后找到实现目标的方法。

”他还意识到:“如果其他人都能有远大的梦想,我也能。

”如今,他拥有一家价值百万美元的公司,专门为员工提供福利。

5 为什么像达瑞格这样的普通人往往比像吉姆这样的人取得的成就要多的多?为了找出答案,我采访了190多名在工作中作为一名企业顾问的男性和女性。

这次非正式调查的结果证实了西奥多·罗斯福曾说过的话:“成功的普通人不是天才。

他只是一个拥有普通品质的人,但他把这些普通品质发展到了一个超出普通程度的程度。

”6 我认为那些出类拔萃的“普通人”:7 学会自律。

“成功并不需要天赋,”丹佛波特纪念医院的首席执行官坚持说,科罗拉多州因扭转了表现不佳的医院闻名。

“你只需要一大罐胶水。

你把一些涂在椅子上,一些涂在裤子上,然后坐下来,坚持做每一个项目,直到你做到你能做到的最好。

”8 普通的成功人士总是粘在椅子上,推迟快乐,收获未来的回报。

• Title: what the narrator has done led to the death of a patient which is deemed as a crime by the public who hold the traditional morality. But the motivation of so-called “crime” comes from the narrator‟s compassion for the patient. “Compassion”, a kind-hearted and good-natured affection, contradicts with “crime”, an evil behavior. The contrast arouses the interest of the readers. • Para.4 • “Otherwise, he felt great.” • He had nothing wrong but somntary euthanasia • Euthanasia conducted with the consent of the patient is termed voluntary euthanasia. Voluntary euthanasia is legal in Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and the U.S. states of Oregon and Washington. When the patient brings about his or her own death with the assistance of a physician, the term assisted suicide is often used instead. • Non-voluntary euthanasia • Euthanasia conducted where the consent of the patient is unavailable is termed non-voluntary euthanasia. Examples include child euthanasia, which is illegal worldwide but decriminalised under certain specific circumstances in the Netherlands under the Groningen Protocol. • Involuntary euthanasia • Euthanasia conducted against the will of the patient is termed involuntary euthanasia.

AIt was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever imagined attending. I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word "congratulations". I don't remember ever smiling so wide.Then I looked at my financial(财政的) package.The cost of Dream School's tuition(学费), room and board was around $40,000 - an impossible sum! How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren't as famous as my first choice.In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer. My parents understood how I felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, I wasn't sure what to do.One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring. Considering my parents' financial difficulties, I decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food, and listen quietly. But I surprised myself.At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus(校园) including guest lectures and social gatherings. He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my "dream" university. However, it turned out to be the right choice of schools for me.56. How did the author feel when he started to read the letter?A. He was full of joy.B. He was lost in his dream.C. He was worried about the money.D. He was uncertain which school to go to.57. We can learn from the passage that the parents were _______.A. honestB. strictC. supportiveD. decisive58. In Paragraph 5, "offered me a full ride" can be replaced by " ________".A. would pay for transport to the schoolB. would show me around the campusC. would offer free meals at all eventsD. would charge me nothing for tuition59. What does the author mainly want to say?A. Your second-choice college may actually be your best fit.B. You should consider comfort in your choice of schools.C. You should try your best to attend your dream school.D. Your choice of schools should be based on their fame.导读:故事类短文阅读。

Reading AloudUnit1She was a small woman, old and wrinkled. When she started washing for us, she was already past seventy. All the old women in out street had bent backs and leaned on sticks when they walked. But this washwoman, small and thin as she was, possessed a strength that came from generations of peasant forebears. Mother would count out to her a bundle of laundry that had accumulated over several weeks. She would then lift the bundle, put it on her narrow shoulders, and carry it the long way home.She would bring the laundry back about two weeks later. My mother had never been so pleased with any washwoman. Yet she charged no more than the others. She was a real fine. Mother always had her money ready, because it was too far for the woman to come a second time.count out <非正>逐一数出,大声数; <非正>不把…考虑在内她是个小个子的妇人,上了年纪,满脸皱纹。
