英汉、汉英翻译练习
1．Walk, Don’t RunYou want to get health. You know you need to exercise more. But if you’re not ready to grunt through an hour of spinning or kickboxing, don’t despair. There’s growing agreement among exercise researchers that the intense physical activities offered by most health clubs are not the only---or even the preferable---path to better health. Indeed, the best thing for most of us may be to just walk.Yes, walk. At a reasonably vigorous clip (three to four m.p.h) for half an hour or so, maybe five or six times a week. You may not feel the benefits all at once, but the evidence suggests that over the long term, a regular walking routine can do a world of preventive good.Walking, in fact, may be the perfect exercise. For starters, it’s one of the safest things you can do with your body. It’s much easier on the knees than running and doesn’t trigger untoward side effects. “Regular physical activity is probably as close to a magic bullet as we will come in modern medicine, ”says Dr. JoAnn Manson, chief of preventive medicine at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital. “If everyone were to walk briskly 30 minute a day, we could cut the incidence of many chronic diseases by 30 to 40 percent.”And for those of us who don’t have half-hour chunks of time, the news gets even better. Several recent studies suggest that walking briskly three or four times a day for 10 minutes at a time may provide many of the same benefits as walking continuously for 30 minutes.Because walking affects you in so many ways at once, it can be difficult to determine precisely why it’s good for you.2．Why Girls Worry More than BoysIf worrying is detrimental for girls, what can be done to alleviate it? It is important first to understand why girls might worry about school success more than boys. Research has provided at least two reasons.First, girls are more concerned than boys with pleasing adults, especially their parents and teachers. This may leave girls vulnerable to the fear that if they experience academic difficulties, adults may be disappointed in them.Second, girls are more likely to feel poor academic performance is diagnostic of their abilities---to assume, for example, that poor performance on a single math test is indicative of their overall math ability. Boys are more likely to see an isolated poor performance as the result of other causes, like lack of efforts. This self-confident approach may protect boys from the same level of worrying girls feel when they face academic challenges.A number of practices to alleviate potentially negative consequences o f girls’ anxiety about academic performance are likely to benefit all students, not just girls.3. Inspiration from life1.Taking the first stepHow will you know you can succeed at something if you don’t give it a try?How will you know you can drag yourself out of the depths of despair if you don’t try?How do you know you won’t get that new job if you don’t apply? How do you know…Before becoming a success at anything, you must take that first step.2. Giving and receiving loveHumans need love. It is in the giving and receiving of love that we choose life. Participating inthis fundamental exchange of love lies in our ability to trust others.3. Happiness now!Happiness is to be found along the way, not at the end of the road, for then the journey is over and it is too late.Today, this hour, this minute is the day, the hour, the minute for each of us to sense the fact that life is good, with all of its trials and troubles, and perhaps more interesting because of them.4. Setting aside special momentsOver the years, I have noticed that it has become more and more difficult to set aside those special moments of the day when we can remove ourselves from the hectic, frenetic pace of everyday life.Yet finding time to get away, to reflect, to concentrate, or to just let the mind wander freely is important for our overall health.Studies have shown that reducing stress in daily life significantly reduces the risk of heart attacks or the need for heart surgery.5. Reflecting on angerAnother way of dealing with anger is to reflect on its results.We know very well that when we are angry, we do not see the truth clearly. As a result, we may commit many unwholesome actions.Our future life is determined by our intentional actions today, just as our present life is heir to our previous intentional behavior. Intentional actions committed under the influence of anger cannot lead to a happy future.4．Michael Jordan’s farewell letter to basketballDear Basketball,It’s been almost 28 years since the first day we met, 28 years since I saw you in the back of our garage, 28 years since my parents introduced us.If someone would have told me then what would become of us, I’m not sure I w ould have believed them. I barely remembered your name.Then I started seeing you around the neighborhood and watching you on television. I used to see you with guys down at the playground. But when my older brother started paying more attention to you. I started to wonder. Maybe you were different.We hung out a few times. The more I got to know you, the more I liked you. And as life would have it, when I finally got really interested in you, when I was finally ready to get serious, you left me off the varsity. You told me I wasn’t good enough.I was crushed. I was hurt. I think I even cried.Then I wanted you more than ever. So I practiced. I hustled. I worked on my game. Passing. Dribbling. Shooting. Thinking. I ran. I did sit-ups. I did push-ups. I did pull-ups. I lifted weights. I studied you. I began to fall in love and you noticed. At least that’s what Coach Smith said.5．Jogging May Make You SmarterRunning may give the brain a workout, too. A new study finds that individuals consistently scored higher on intellectual tests after embarking on a running program.“These improvements, however, went down when the joggers stopped their training, which suggests that ongoing exercise is required to maintain the benefit,” sa id study lead author Dr.Kisou Kubota of Nihon Fukushi University in Handa, Japan.Recent studies have suggested that exercise benefits both brawn and brain. Researchers at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, reported earlier this year that seniors who embarked on a 4-month exercise program showed significant improvement in memory and other mental skills, also known as cognitive function. Other studies have shown that regular workouts can help fight depression, as well.In their study, Kubota’s t eam had seven healthy young people initiate a jogging regimen consisting of running for 30 minutes, two in three times a week for at least 12 weeks. Each of the runners also took a series of complex computer-based tests, to compare memory skills before and after the 3-month jogging program.After 12 weeks of jogging, scores on all of the tests “significantly increased” in the runners, as did their reaction times in completing the tests. The researchers point out that the study participants were given no time to practice the various tests between each evaluation.“These tests showed that joggers had a clear improvement in prefrontal function,” Kubota said, adding that scores began to fall again if participants stopped their running routine.Exactly how exercise might strengthen mental sharpness is unclear, but previous research suggests that maintaining a healthy flow of blood and oxygen protects the brain. The Japanese researchers note that oxygen intake rose along with.The findings could have implications for the elderly, as well. In a Society for Neuroscience statement, Kubota said the research may someday help doctors “find a way to use exercise and running to help aged people and those with Alzheimer’s disease” improve their cognitive function.6．How to Get Your Dream JobDoris had been a flight attendant with United Airlines for 26 years. She loved her work---serving passengers, making them feel comfortable---but knew the time would come when she would feel too old for this young person’s business. Yet Doris wasn’t ready to retire. She gave the matter some thought and decided that her talent for making people feel relaxed and safe could just as easily be employed on the ground as in the air. And that’s how Doris came to establish a bed-and-breakfast on Martha’s Vineyard, where her family has lived since the 1800s. Now, three years after leaving United, Doris runs a five-room Dutch colonial inn that is filled to capacity almost year-round.Women today are living 20 years longer than their grandmothers, and ten years longer than their husbands. Because we’re living longer, we’re working longer. And some of us are thinking about spending the second half of our lives doing something we’ve always dreamed about but never got around to. After years of working hard, or catering to the needs of husbands, children, and parents, reinventing ourselves has become our passion, our gift to ourselves.As Doris’s example illustrates, the process of choosing another field is not as mystical as it seems. There are basic steps. To begin, list everything that interests you. Think about the tasks you really love doing. Go way back. Is there anything you’ve let go of that perhaps you’d like to pick up again? Consider your passions. Are you crazy about lipstick? Harbor a shoe fancy? Love to travel? Would you be happy nestled among the stacks of a bookstore? Use what you’ve learned to direct yourself toward the companies or positions that will excite you.Then define what you do best. Consider how what you’ve done in the past can apply to something you want to do in the future. Research every aspect of your chosen profession (or thecompany you want to work for), prepare to market yourself in that arena, build a network of friends and family you can rely on, and find a mentor. Most important of all, refuse to give up.7．Animal MigrationSeasonally or periodically, some animals move away from and back to their natural breeding areas. The best-known examples of this migratory behavior are annual bird movements, in which swarms of birds native to the Temperate and Arctic zones seek warmer regions late in the summer and in the autumn and return to their original nesting sites in the spring. A spectacular example is the young arctic terns(燕鸥)born at the arctic breeding grounds, which take off with the flock for distant lands they have never seen. One of the most remarkable migrations in insects is that taken each fall by the North American monarch butterfly(大斑蝶)which is capable of long flights at speeds of 20 miles or more per hour.Many theories have been put forward to explain the origin of migrations and the physiological mechanisms that guide animals in migrations journeys, but no single theory has been judged completely satisfactory by scientists. The seasonal movements of birds and most other migrating animals are activated by a combination of external and internal stimuli that releases a physiological “trigger”of migration. Once an animal has begun a migratory journey, however, many factors may act to maintain it on a proper path.Navigation by the sun and stars seems to be involved in the migration of birds, and fish may be guided through the sea by minute traces of chemical odors from the rivers of their ancestors. According to current research, birds may possess a sensitivity to the magnetic field of the Earth and to the effect of its rotation about an axis. The combination of these two forces, being unique for various parts of the world, could thus direct a bird to the location desired. Traces of iron in the brain tissue of birds indicate a possible mechanism for this sensitivity to the magnetic field. Other theories involve the use by animals of the physical features of an area of land during flight, such as mountain ranges, coastal lines, and river courses. None of these theories fully explains the usually successful maiden migrations of animals, unless it is supposed that much of the phenomenon is genetic and that animals instinctively pursue ancient paths.8．Aspirin’s Amazing New PowerAs a drug for cooling inflammation, aspirin and compounds containing aspirin have been taken by tens of millions of arthritis patients. As a pain-killer, aspirin is, according to one study, the most ef fective. It also acts on the body’s thermostat, turning down fever.But most of its powers remained unsuspected until recently. In 1950 an American physician wrote a small western medical journal about 400 overweight male patients to whom he had given one or two aspirin tablets a day. None had a heart attack. He enlarged his group to 800 and in 1956 reported: “Not a single case of detectable coronary or cerebral thrombosis” and “no major stroke” had occurred in patients who had taken one or two tablets daily for from one to ten years. But his observations were largely ignored.In the 1960s severs European scientists demonstrated that aspirin was an “anticoagulant”. In 1977, a Boston surgeon reported that 75 percent of his aspirin-treated patients did not develop post-operative blood clots after total hip replacement.Then a British surgeon, at London Royal College of Surgeons proved that aspirin protects people from getting fever and pain. Moreover, it prevented the blood from forming clots insidearteries. In the 1990s, six large controlled studies totaling 10000 patients who were given daily aspirin after a heart attack also showed a consistent pattern of apparent protection. Recently, the British medical magazine The Lancet reanalyzed these studies and, taking them together, did find statistical significance. Aspirin prevented about 20 percent of second heart attacks. However, The Lancet also points out the aspirin is not always a safe drug to reduce the number of strokes and heart attacks. People with stomach ulcers are advised to take aspirin only with supervision. Some patients are so sensitive to the drug that they suffer from sudden death after a single tablet.Still, aspirin, that old home drug, has suddenly become a new miracle one.。

As China is rising as a political and economic world power, thanks to its three-decade reform and opening up, more and more people in overseas countries start to learn Chinese and turn to a Confucius Institute in their own countries as their first choice learning Chinese language and Chinese culture. During the learning process, the learners concurrently develop their interest in this ancient land, whose civilization is so vastly different from theirs. And the learners have opportunities to learn about Chinese philosophy, art, architecture, medicine and catering culture and experience first-hand the splendors of this venerable civilization.改革开放30 年来，随着中国逐渐崛起成为政治经济强国，海外人士学习汉语的现象与日俱增，海外孔子学院也成了人们学习中国语言和中国文化的首选之地。
通过学习汉语，他们对这个和自己文化大相径庭的古老文明产生了浓厚的兴趣，而且有机会了解中国的哲学、艺术、医学、饮食文化，亲身体验这个文明古国的风采。
As the second culture, Chinese culture has enriched the life and world outlook of the learners. This trend, so to speak, is gathering momentum and is there to stay. Apart from their love for Chinese cuisine, more and more American learners of Chinese language are turning to Chinese acupuncture, herbal medicines, martial arts. They are also interested in kongfu films, fashions and crafts. Seemingly outlandish words such as dim sum, ginseng, gingko, oolongcha have crept into their everyday language. The latest Chinese cultural icons to make its impact there are Taoism, and ancient school of thought, and fengshui, an ancient art of placement.作为第二文化，中国文化也丰富了他们的生活和世界观。
可以说，这个潮流方兴未艾。
越来越多的学习汉语的美国人除了对中国菜肴赞不绝口之外，也在尝试针灸，草药和武术。
他们也看功夫电影，学习东方时装潮流和手工艺，不知不觉的在日常生活中谈及中国的点心，人参、银杏，乌龙茶等。
目前在美国最热门的中国文化是道家学说和有着神秘色彩的风水学。
What will the role of universities be in this globalized economy? How will they contribute to improving society through innovation that will improve the quality of life and support economic growth? How will they prepare their graduates who will extract the best and explore the greatest in this increasingly complex society? It is important to remember that undergraduate education and post-graduate education are tightly linked to research. Our education programs should ensure that the students are learning in an atmosphere characterized by the pursuit of new knowledge and process of discovery. An interrelated educational program will create a flow of young, bright and uninhibited minds to work on the frontier of discovery.在这个经济全球化的时代背景下，大学将扮演怎样的角色呢?大学将如何通过旨在提高生活质量、推动经济发展的创新活动进而推动社会的进步呢?在这个日新月异、充满变数的社会，大学又将如何培养那些善于取精用弘的学生呢?我们应该认识到，本科生教育和研究生教育都与研究紧密相连。
我们的教育应该为学生创造一种可以探寻新知识、带来新发现的氛围，将教学与研究融合在一起的教育可以培养一批活跃在探索前沿、聪颖开放的青年才俊。
The fundamental mission of a university is the creation of new knowledge which sometimes has immediate practical applications. But that can never be the only goal. And making it a primary goal will frequently be short-sighted. Basic contributions to knowledge should be valued for being exactly that. Our university has an almost unique role in fostering such contribution. Choosing theright people is the first and perhaps the most crucial step in ensuring an innovative environment. There are three types of people that can be important. The first class of individuals consists of fanciful visionaries. The second class of important people in innovative environment consists of revolutionary explorers.The third class of individuals consists of uninhibited executors.大学最根本的使命就是创造新知识，虽然大学所创造的新知识有时会立即产生实际应用价值，但这决不是大学所追求的唯一目标。
将获取实际应用价值的目标定位大学的主要目标是一种短视行为。
基础研究也同样是大学的使命，而且大学在推动基础研究方面能发挥独特的作用。
选对人是确保创新型研究环境的首要因素，也是最为关键的因素。
选人要选三种人：第一种人是想法活跃的思想家，第二种人是富有革命精神的探索家，第三种人是不受常规约束的实干家。
Innovation starts at the top, and it is important for leaders to create an environment where innovation is constant, where people have the skills and incentives to think creatively. In doing so, you attract talents that want to contribute to that environment, creating a virtuous cycle for the company. Shanghai's leadership has worked hard to create an environment where businesses can succeed. For example, Shanghai's transportation links to the world, including Pudong International Airport and the new deep water port facility, have achieved world-class status. We live in an era where innovation is central to economic growth and prosperity.创新从领导层开始做起。
领导层必须营造一个可以不断创新的环境，以激励人们的创新思维。
这样的环境可以吸引那些乐于创新的人才，从而使公司得到良性发展。
上海的领导努力为企业营造可取得成功的环境。
例如，浦东国际机场和新的深水港等设施的建立，使上海与世界的交通连接达到了世界级的水平。
我们生活在一个以创新驱动经济发展和繁荣的时代。
It is comfortable to hold onto the old ways of doing business. But innovation is hard because it usually leads to change. Innovation requires new ideas, new processes, and new institutions. New technologies and approaches can radically change an existing market, creating new customers and competitions. But innovation and its accompanying disruption can be managed through good leadership, a long term strategy, and good people. President Hu Jintao stated at the beginning of this year that “Innovation is the core of the nation's competitiveness.墨守成规确实舒服惬意，而改革创新则困难重重，因为创新往往引发变革。
