课文全文参考译文第一课漏油经济：低估风险戴维伦哈特·[1] 回想起来，模式似乎很清楚。
早在“深水地平线”钻机自爆前的很多年，BP 石油公司为了省钱甘冒安全的风险就已经声名狼藉。
2005 年得克萨斯州炼油厂爆炸中有15 名工人丧生。
联邦监管机构和前国务卿詹姆斯·贝克三世领导的专门小组认为，削减成本是事故的部分原因。
第二年，阿拉斯加腐蚀的管道将石油漏入普拉德霍湾。
就连乔·巴顿，对全球变暖持怀疑态度、来自得克萨斯州的共和党众议员，都谴责BP 管理人员“对安全和环境问题表现得漠不关心”。
[2] 这种冷漠大部分源于对利润的过度追求，不管出现什么情况。
但似乎也还有另一个因素在起作用，一个更普遍的人性的因素。
BP 的管理人员在估计似乎不太可能发生但一旦发生就会带来巨大损失的事件真正会发生的可能性时，犯了一个可怕的错误。
[3] 也许理解这一点最简单的方法就是思考一下BP 高管们如今的想法。
显然，考虑到清理费用和对BP 声誉的影响，高管们真希望可以回到过去，多花些钱让“深水地平线”更安全。
他们没有增加这笔费用就表明他们认为钻机在当时的状态下不会出问题。
[4] 尽管针对BP 高管的所有批评可能都是他们应得的，但是他们绝不是唯一艰难应对这种低概率、高成本事件的人。
几乎每个人都会如此。
“这些正是我们人类处理时很难做出合理反应的一类事件，”哈佛大学环境经济学家罗伯特·斯塔文斯说。
我们经常犯两种基本且性质相反的错误。
当一件事情是很难想象的，我们往往会低估它的可能性。
这就是众所周知的黑天鹅（稀有之物）现象。
大多数在“深水地平线”工作的人可能从未经历过钻井平台爆炸。
因此他们认为这不会发生，至少不会发生在他们身上。
[5] 同样，不久以前，本·伯南克和艾伦·格林斯潘也喜欢称全国房地产市场没有泡沫，因为以前从未有过泡沫。
华尔街交易员也持同样观点，他们建立的数学模型根本不存在房价下降的可能性。

进入研究生阶段，英语不再仅仅是一门学科，而更像是一种工具，帮助我研读更专业的文献、参与国际学术交流，以及撰写高水平的论文。
当我翻开《研究生英语读写教程提高级》Unit 7时，我感到了一种与以往不同的挑战。
Unit 7的主题是跨文化交际，其中涉及了许多我之前未曾深入了解的领域。
文章中通过真实的案例，深入浅出地讲解了跨文化交际中的误解与冲突，以及如何避免这些问题。
在学习过程中，我深感跨文化交际的重要性。
在全球化的今天，能够与不同文化背景的人进行有效沟通是每个研究生必备的技能。
在学习Unit 7的过程中，我遇到了不少困难。
有些概念和文化背景对我来说很陌生，需要花更多的时间去理解与消化。
同时，文章中大量的专业词汇也考验了我的英语功底。
但正是这些挑战，让我更加坚定了学习的决心。
我通过查阅相关资料、与同学讨论以及反复阅读课文，逐渐克服了这些困难。
经过这一单元的学习，我不仅掌握了跨文化交际的基本概念和技巧，还对英语阅读和写作有了更深入的理解。
我发现，要想真正掌握一门语言，仅靠课堂上的学习是远远不够的，还需要大量的实践和应用。
这次学习经验让我更加明白自己的学习方向和目标。
未来，我计划更加深入地研究跨文化交际的相关知识，并尝试将其应用于实际生活中。
我相信，这门课程带给我的不仅仅是知识，更是一种跨文化的视野和思维方式。
我希望能够在学术研究的道路上走得更远，与世界各地的同行进行深入的交流与合作。

I looked to see whether anyone else relished the sun's golden glow, but everyone was hurrying to and fro, most with eyes fixed on the ground. Then I remembered how often I, too, had been indifferent to the grandeur of each day, too preoccupied with petty and sometimes even mean concerns to respond to the splendor of it all.
One morning, I had to have some additional tests. The required machines were located in a building at the opposite end of the hospital, so I had to be wheeled across the courtyard on a gurney.
Surely we ought to hold fast to life. For it is wondrous, and full of a beauty that breaks through every pore of God's own earth. We know that this is so, but all too often we recognize this truth only in our backward glance when we remember what it was and then suddenly realize that it is no more.
