You'll Never Be Famous-And That'sOKBy Emily Esfahani Smith'1 Today's college students desperately want to change the world, but too many thinkthat living a meaningful life requires doing something extraordinary and remarkable like becoming an Instagram star, starting a wildly successful company or ending a humanitarian crisis.2 Having hopes and dreams for the future is ,of course ,part of being young .But thanksto social media , purpose and meaning have become merged with prestige :Extraordinary lives look like the norm on the Internet .Yet the idea that a meaningful life must be orappear remarkable is not only limited but also misguided .Over the past five years ,I've interviewed dozens of people across the country about what gives their lives meaning ,andI've read through thousands of pages of psychology ,philosophy and neuroscience researchto understand what truly brings people satisfaction .3 The most meaningful lives ,I've learned ,are often not the extraordinaryones .They're the ordinary ones lived with dignity .4 There's perhaps no better expression of that wisdom than George Middlemarch ,a book I think every college student should read .At 700-some pages ,it requires devotionand discipline ,which is kind of the point .Much like a meaningful life ,the completion ofthis book is hard-won and requires effort .The heroine of the novel is Dorothea Brooke ,a wealthy young gentlewoman in a provincial English town .Dorothea has a passionatenature and yearns to accomplish some good in the world as a philanthropist .The novel'shero ,Tertius Lydgate , is an ambitious young doctor who hopes to make importantscientific discoveries .Both hope to lead epic lives .5 Both Dorothea and Tertius end up in disastrous marriages-she to the preacherMr .Casaubon ,he to the town beauty Rosamond .Slowly ,their dreams wither away . Rosamond ,who turns out to be vain and superficial ,wants Tertius to pursue a career paying enough to support her extraordinary tastes ,and by the end of the novel ,he yields , abandoning his scientific quest to become a doctor to the rich .Though conventionally'" successful", he dies at 50believing himself a failure for not following through on hisoriginal life plan .6 As for Dorothea , after the Reverend Casaubon dies , she marries her true love ,Will Ladislaw .But her larger ambitions go unrealized .At first it seems that she ,too ,haswasted her potential .7 Tertius's tragedy is that he never reconciles himself to his dull reality .Dorothea's triumph is that she does .8 By novel's end ,she settles into life as a wife and a mother ,and becomes ,Eliotwrites ,the "foundress” of nothing ".It may be a letdown for the reader ,but not for Dorothea .She pours herself into her roles as mother and wife with " beneficent activity which she had not the doubtful pains of discovering and marking out for herself ".9 Looking out of her window one day ,she sees a family making its way down the road and comes to the realization that she needs to begin to live in the moment .Rather thangive in to the despair of disappointed dreams ,she embraces her life as it is andcontributes to those around her as she can .Eliot's final words on Dorothea ,which is oneof the most beautiful passages in literature ,capture what a meaningful life isabout :connecting and contributing to something beyond the self ,in whatever humble form that may take .10 Most young adults won't achieve the idealistic goals they've set for themselves .They won't become the next Mark Zuckerberg .They won't have death notices that run in newspapers like this one .But that doesn't mean their lives will lack significance andworth .We all have a circle of people whose lives we can touch and improve ,and we can find our meaning in that .11 A new and growing body of research within psychology about meaningfulness confirms the wisdom of Eliot's novel-that meaning is found not in success and glamourbut in the ordinary .One research study showed that adolescents who did household chores felt a stronger sense of purpose .Why ?The researchers believe it's becausethey're contributing to something bigger :their family .Another study found that cheering up a friend was an activity that created meaning in a young adult's life .People who see their occupations as an opportunity to serve their immediate community find more meaning in their work , whether it's an accountant helping his client or a factory worker supporting her family with a paycheck .12 As students head to school this year ,they should consider this :You don't have to change the world or find your one true purpose to lead a meaningful life .A good life is a life of goodness ,and that's something anyone can aspire to ,no matter their dreams or circumstances .1．如今的大学生迫切希望改变世界，但太多人认为，过有意义的生活需要做一些非同寻常和非凡的事情，比如成为Instagram明星、创办一家非常成功的公司或结束一场人道主义危机。

Unit1Very hesitantly I selected a tube of blue paint, and with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean on the snow-white field .At that moment I heard the sound of a motorcar in the drive and threw down my brush in a panic. I was even more alarmed when I saw who stepped from the car: the wife of Sir John Laverty, the celebrated painter who lived nearby."'Painting!’ she declared.’ What fun. But what are you waiting for? Let me have the brush-the big one.’ she plunged into the paints and before I knew it, she had swept several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely terrified canvas. Anyone could see it could not hit back. I restituted no more. Seized the largest brush and fell upon my wretched victim with fury. I have never felt any fear of a canvas since." 1.When his wife died of a stroke in her sixties, the 72-year-old retired professor was overwhelmed by grief .Life would be too difficult for him without anybody to rely on.2.Last month two amateur painters held an exhibition of their pictures inLondon .Many people went to see it, including a few celebrated professors.3.when seven astronauts died in the challenger disaster in the mid-1980s,it plunged the whole world into shock and grief.4.After completing her second prime ministry, she remained actively involved in political affairs.

That official was removed from office of being involved in a political scandal. Had he known this would happen, he might have acted differently.Unit2This belief in hard work is the first of three main factors contributing to Asian students' outstanding performance. It springs from Asians' common heritage ofConfucianism, the philosophy of the 5th-century-BC Chinese sage teachings have had a profound influence on Chinese society. One of Confucius’s primary teachings is that through effort, people can perfect themselves.Confucianism provides another important ingredient in the Asians’ success as well. In Confucian philosophy, the family plays a central role--an orientation that leads people to work for the honor of the family, not just for themselves. One can never replay one's parents, and there's sense of obligation or even guilt that is as strong a force among Asians as Protestant philosophy is among those in the West1.Female students constitute the majority of our class. By contrast, their class is made up of males only.2.American children can usually watch TV three hours a day, whereas their Chinese counterparts have to work on their homework during most their after-school time.3.His development of a series of new research methods led to his huge success.

The company had just started a joint venture with a Japanese firm, and the American management needed someone to train the Japanese employees in its unique technology. George's solid understanding of the equipment, its installation and use made him the best-qualified employee for the job ,so everyone was happy when George accepted a two-year contract for temporary transfer to Japan.Form the start, George was well accepted by all the Japanese employees. Japanese managers often distrust anyone sent to represent US owners, but George was so naturally nonassertive that no one could see him as a threat to their careers. So they felt comfortable asking his advice on a wide range of matters, including the odd behavior of their partners across the ocean. Engineers throughout the company appreciated George's expertise and his friendly and capable help, and they got into habit of turning to him whenever they had a problem-any problem. And the secretaries in the office were eager to help this nice bachelor learn Japanese.1When this temporary job came to an end, George was offered a permanent job, which he accepted at once.2.To ensure that their ventures in Japan are profitable, the American companies need cultural translators even more than language translators.3.As a cultural translator, George was eager to help the Japanese employees who came to ask his advice on a great many matters, both within and outside of his field of expertise.4.Somehow or other, George persuaded the American manager to go along with the Japanese accountant’s decision, thus smoothing over the conflict between the two.5.Conflicts and arguments do arise at times between the American managers and their Japanese counterparts.

Please don’t get offended if I sometimes say stupid things.8.with a solid understanding of traditional Chinese medicine and a good mastery of English, dr. Zhang is highly qualified to train foreign doctors who came to China to study Chinese medicine.Unit4Failure is never pleasant. It hurts adults and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask,” Why did I fail?” Resist the natural impulse to blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about inquiring.Success, which encourages repetition of old behavior ,is not nearly as good a teacher as failure. You can learn from a disastrous party how to give a good one, from an ill-chosen first house what to look for in a second .Even a failure that seems total can prompt fresh thinking, a change of direction.1.Protecting children from the knowledge that they have failed is anything but beneficial to their growth and development.2.Emerson does not think there is a world of difference between success and failure.3.A mature person is one who is good at turning failure into success.4.She was so obsessed with becoming a success in ice skating that she never prepared herself for challenges of the real world.5.He suffered a complete nervous breakdown when he learned that his company had gone bankrupt.6.When talking about his success, Mr. Smith is very prone to exaggeration.7.The company started by selling radios but now has branched out into selling computers as well.8.In fact, failure is nothing to be afraid of.

The archaeological filed school of Washington State University was sponsoring a summer research project at a site alongside the Snake River in Washington. Priscilla threw herself into the work, and the project supervisors were impressed. At the end of the summer, one of the professors offered her a job. "He said, ' We just got a contract for project in North Dakota. We want to hire you if you're willing to take a semester off from school.’ “The offer was a diversion from Priscilla's pursuit of her BA. "But by then I no longer doubted that I would ultimately finish school,so I felt comfortable grabbing this opportunity,” she says.1.The university offered Priscilla only a small loan and she had to come up with the rest of the money herself.2.With small income from her restaurant job, marry could barely make (both) ends meet. That’s why she found some cleaning work to do in the apartment building where she lived.3.During her first semesters, she often stayed up late studying because she knew she had to get the highest GPA in her class to qualify the scholarship.4.Anyone who wants to find employment in/ with that company must have at least a master’s degree; if not a Ph.

121 世纪大学实用英语综合教程（第一册）课后答案及课文翻译Text A 大学——我一生中的转折点佚名作为一名一年级新生初进大学时，我害怕自己在学业上搞不好。
我害怕独自一人在外，因为我是第一次远离家人。
这里周围都是我不认识的人，而他们也不认识我。
我得和他们交朋友，或许还得在我要学的课程上跟他们在分数上进行竞争。
他们比我更聪明吗？我跟得上他们吗？他们会接受我吗？我很快就认识到，我的生活现在就取决于我自己了。
如果我要在学业上取得成功，我就必须制定一份学习计划。
我必须调整花在学习上的时间和花在社交上的时间。
我必须决定什么时候上床睡觉，什么时候吃什么，什么时候喝什么，对什么人表示友好。
这些问题我都得自己回答。
开始时，生活有点艰难。
我在怎样利用时间上犯了错误。
我在交朋友上花的时间太多了。
我还在怎样选择大学里的第一批朋友上犯了一些错误。
然而不久，我就控制住了自己的生活。
我做到了按时上课，完成并交上了第一批作业，而且以相当好的成绩通过了前几次考试。
此外，我还交了一些朋友，跟他们在一起我感到很自在，我能把我担心的事告诉他们。
我建立了一种真正属于我自己的常规——一种满足了我的需要的常规。
结果，我开始从一个不同的视角看待我自己了。
我开始把自己看作是一个对自己负责也对朋友和家人负责的人。
凡事自己做决定并看到这些决定最终证明是明智的决定，这种感觉很好。
我猜想这就是人们所说的“成长”的一部分吧。
我未来的生活将会怎样呢？在人生的这一阶段，我真的不能确定我的人生之路最终将会走向何方，我真的不知道在以后的几年中我会做什么。
但我知道，我能应对未来，因为我已经成功地跃过了我生命中的这一重要障碍：我已经完成了从一个依赖家人给予感情支持的人向一个对自己负责的人的过渡。

TEXT1 A 我怎么变聪明的（史蒂夫布罗迪）上学的孩子们中间有一种普遍的错误想法，即认为他们的老师当年都是些神童。
不管怎么说，除了不像一般孩子那样生性贪玩、不愿学习的书呆子之外，还有谁愿意长大后当老师呢？我极力向我的学生们解释，我在他们心目中的形象—一个在青春期热衷于书本和作业的人—有一点被扭曲了。
相反，我极为痛恨义务教育。
我永远都无法接受在鱼儿上钩时不得不去上学的想法。
但在我中学二年级时，却发生了一件美妙而又激动人心的事。
爱神丘比特瞄准他的箭，正好射中了我的心。
突然间，我喜欢上学了，而这只是为了能够凝视英语二班里那张可爱的脸。
我的公主坐在卷笔器旁边，那一年我削的铅笔足以点燃一堆篝火。
可黛比却远远超出了我最不着边际的梦想。
将我们隔开的不仅有五排课桌，还有约50分的智商。
她是英语二班的尖子，拉里维太太的掌上明珠。
偶尔，黛比会发觉我在盯着她看，这时她便会露出一个闪烁着智慧光芒、令我心跳加快的微笑。
这是一种标志着希望、使我暂时忘记将我们分开的智力上的鸿沟的微笑。
我想尽办法去跨越那条鸿沟。
有一天，我经过超市，突然想到了一个主意。
橱窗里的一块招牌称商店正以29美分的特价供应一套百科全书的第一卷。
其余各卷则为每卷2.49美元。
我买下了第一卷—从Aardvark（土豚）到Asteroid（小行星）—然后开始了在知识世界里的探险。
打那以后，我将成为一个事实探寻者。
我将成为英语二班的首席智者，以渊博的知识使我的公主倾心于我。
我全都计划好了。
一天，在自助餐厅排队时，我的第一个机会来了。
我回头一看，她正好在我身后。
“嘿，”她说。
我犹豫了一下，然后润了润嘴唇说，“知道鳀鱼是从哪儿来的吗？”她显得有点惊讶。
“不，我不知道。
”我松了口气。
“鳀鱼生活在咸水里，淡水里很少见。
”我不得不讲得很快，以便在我们到达收银台之前，道出所有的细节。
“渔民们在地中海和邻近西班牙、葡萄牙的大西洋海岸捕捉鳀鱼。
”“真有意思，”黛比一边说一边疑惑地摇着头。

21世纪大学英语翻译答案
中国人从小就相信英雄得具有大无畏和自我牺牲精神(self-sacrifice)。
当国家利益和个人利益相冲突时，英雄们总是选择牺牲自己。
刘胡兰和董存瑞在中国家喻户晓。
1947年，15岁的刘胡兰由于积极投身中国解放运动而被敌人杀害。
战士董存瑞手托炸药包(a pack of explosives)，炸毁了敌人的碉堡(blockhouse)，并献出了自己的生命。
但是，随着时间的推移，英雄的标准已经多样化，人们开始质疑这些英雄是否仍然是当今的楷模(role model) 。
Chinese people are brought up to believe that a hero has to be associated with tremendous courage and self-sacrifice. Whenever there is a contradiction between the interest of nation and their own, Chinese heroes always choose to sacrifice themselves. Both Liu Hulan and Dong Cunrui are household names in China. Liu was a 15-year-old girl killed by the enemy in 1947 for being actively involved in liberation of China. And Dong was a soldier who blew off the enemy blockhouse by holding a pack of explosives in his hand and killed himself in the explosion. However, it is open to question whether they can still be role models today since the criteria for heroes have diversified along with the passage of time.汉语常被认为是一种非常古老的语言。
