Unit 4 American DreamText A Tony Trivisonno’s American Dream摘要: 美国梦对不同的人有不同的意义。
但对许多人，尤其是对移民而言，它意味着改善自己生活的机会。
对于他们，美国梦的含义就是才能与勤劳能让你从小木屋走向白宫。
托尼·特里韦索诺并没有爬到那么高，但他成功地使自己的梦想成真托尼·特里韦索诺的美国梦弗雷德里克·c·克罗弗德他来自意大利罗马以南某地一个满地石子的农庄。
他什么时候怎么到美国的，我不清楚。
不过，有天晚上，我看到他站在我家车库后面的车道上。
他身高五英尺七、八左右，人很瘦。
“我割你的草坪，”他说。
他那结结巴巴的英语很难听懂。
我问他叫什么名字。
“托尼·特里韦索诺，”他回答说。
“我割你的草坪。
”我对托尼讲，本人雇不起园丁。
“我割你的草坪，”他又说道，随后便走开了。
我走进屋子，心里有点不快。
没错，眼下这大萧条的日子是不好过，可我怎么能把一个上门求助的人就这么打发走呢?等我第二天晚上下班回到家，草坪已修整过了，花园除了草，人行道也清扫过了。
我便问太太是怎么回事。
“有个人把割草机从汽车库里推出来就在院子里忙活起来，”她回答说。
“我还以为是你雇他来的。
”’我就把前晚的事跟她说了。
我俩都觉得奇怪，他怎么没提出要工钱。
接下来的两天挺忙·，我把托尼的事给忘了。
我们在尽力重整业务，要让一部分工人回厂里来。
但在星期五，回家略微早了些，我又在汽车库后面看到了托尼。
我对他干的活夸奖了几句。
“我割你的草坪，”他说。
我设法凑了一小笔微薄的周薪，就这样托尼每天清扫院子，有什么零活，他都干了。
我太太说，但凡有重物要搬或有什么要修理的，他挺派得上用场。
夏去秋来，凉风阵阵。
“克罗先生，快下雪了，”有天晚上托尼跟我说。
“等冬天到了，你让我在厂里干扫雪的活。
”啊，对这种执着与期盼，你又能怎样呢?自然，托尼得到了厂里的那份活儿。
几个月过去了。
我让人事部门送上一份报告。
他们说托尼干得挺棒。
一天我在汽车库后面我们以前见面的地方看到了托尼。
“我想学徒，”他说。
我们有个挺不错的培训工人的徒工学校。
可我怀疑托尼是否有能力学会看图纸、用千分尺，是否胜任做精密加工工作。
尽管如此，可我怎么能拒绝他呢?托尼减了薪水当了徒工。
几个月之后，我收到报告，他已从徒工学校毕业，成了熟练磨工。
他学会了在千分尺上辨识一百万分之一英寸，会用镶嵌着金刚石的工具制作砂轮。
我和太太都挺高兴，觉得他的事总算有了个令人满意的结局。
一两年过去了，我在托尼惯常等我的地方又看到了他。
我们聊起了他的工作，接着我问他有什么要求。
“克罗先生，”他说，“我想买房。
”在小镇边上，他看到有房出售，完全是幢破房。
我去见——·位当银行家的朋友。
“人品贷款你干不干?”我问。
“不干，”他说。
“我们承担不起。
没门。
”“哎，等等，”我应道。
“有个人干活勤勉，人品端正，这一点我担保。
他有个好工作。
眼下，你从你那块地上—分钱也得不到。
那块地空在那儿要好多年呢。
至少他会付你利息嘛。
”那位银行家勉强开了两干美金抵押贷款，没要托尼首付就把房子给了他。
托尼乐不可支。
从那以后，只要我家附近有什么被人扔弃的零星杂物，坏了的屏风啦，五金器具啦，包装纸板啦，托尼都要收起来拿回家，看他这个样子真是有意思。
约摸过了两年，我在我们见面的老地方又看到了托尼。
他身子似乎挺直了些，人也见胖了，样子挺自信。
“克罗先生，我卖房子!”他得意地说。
“我得了八千美金。
”我非常吃惊。
“可是，托尼，没了房子你住哪儿呢?”“克罗先生，我买农庄。
”我们坐下聊了起来。
托尼告诉我说，拥有一个农庄是他的梦想。
他喜欢番茄，辣椒以及意大利菜肴中相当重要的其它各种蔬菜。
．他把在意大利的妻子和儿子女儿都接来了。
他在小镇周边到处找，终于找到一处没人要的一小块地产，有一幢房，还有间小棚。
他正在把家搬到农庄去。
又过了一些时候，在一个星期日的下午托尼来了，他穿戴得整整齐齐。
和他一起来的还有另一位意大利人。
他告诉我，他说服了儿时的，伙伴前来美国。
托尼为他作经济担保。
他眼里露出顽皮的神情，对我说，他俩来到他经营的小农庄时，他的朋友惊奇地站住说，“托尼，你是个百万富翁啦!”后来，在战争期间，公司里传出了一个消息。
托尼去世了。
我让公司的人去他家看看，确保各项事宜都得到妥善安置。
他们看到农场上长着绿油油的蔬菜，小屋布置得舒适温馨，院子里有一辆拖拉机，还有一辆不错的汽车。
孩子受过教育都工作了，托尼身前没有分文欠债。
托尼去世后，我一直想着他的经历。
他的形象在我心目中越来越高大。
最后，我觉得他就和美国那些最大的实业家一样高大、自豪。
他们都通过同样的途径，本着同样的价值观和原则获得了成功：远见、执着、自制、乐观、自尊，以及最重要的，正直。
托尼不是从最低——级阶梯往上爬的，他是从地下室往上爬的。
托尼的事业很小，那些最大的实业家的事业很大。
但究其实两者的资产负债表完全一样。
惟——的不同是你把小数点点在什么地方。
．托尼•特里韦索诺来到美国寻求美国梦。
但他没有找到什么美国梦——他为自己创造了个美国梦。
他的全部拥有是天宝贵的二十四小时，而他—刻也没有浪费。
Text B With His Own Two Hands他用自己的双手实现了梦想麦克斯·亚历山大阿尔弗雷多·金尼奥内斯-伊诺霍萨弯着腰在田地里采摘西红柿，炽热的太阳灼烤着他的肌肤。
很少有美国人愿意为了一星期挣区区155美元去干这个活。
在加州中部这个方圆10,000英亩的农场上，跟金尼奥内斯一起打工的伙计，大多与他一样是来自墨西哥的非法移民。
一年前，在1987年的1月2日，金尼奥内斯19岁生日那天，他在表兄弟的协助下跃过了加州边境城市加利西哥市的隔离栏，进入了美国。
阿尔弗雷多是家里五个孩子中的老大，五岁起便开始干活，在父亲经营的加油站里给汽车加油。
长大一点以后，他又在一个卖玉米面卷的摊子打工，帮家里挣些额外收入。
但是，他仍旧继续他的学业。
“父亲总是对我说，‘你想像我这样吗？那就别去上学。
’我可不想步他的后尘。
”14岁的时候，金尼奥内斯取得了进入墨西卡利市一个速成班的资格，那个速成班要把学生培养成小学教师。
他几乎以班里最优异的成绩毕业。
然而，由于家里没有有权有势的熟人，他被分配在一个边远的学校任教。
“我不愿忍受那种不公的待遇，”他说道。
不久，他打算离开墨西哥去寻找更好的机会。
以前，他来过美国两次，在夏季打短工。
所以，这次到来之后，他就和表兄弟直奔圣华金河谷，找农活干。
“我采西红柿、花椰菜、球花甘蓝，还收玉米，摘葡萄。
”在农田里抬头望去，金尼奥内斯能看到的最好工作便是开大型拖拉机。
拖拉机手都有技术，还监管其他劳工。
别人告诉他，要想得到这种晋升机会，需要干完十年农活。
然而，没过多久，他就操纵起结构复杂的犁和挖沟机了。
他还学会了如何检修发动机，拿到了临时工作许可证。
几个月后，金尼奥内斯告诉表兄弟他打算离开农场。
表兄弟回答说：“你胡说什么？在这里坚持干下去，有一天你能当上工头！”“有时人得冒点险嘛，”金尼奥内斯说道。
他来到斯托克顿，在一个铁路车辆调度场找到一份活。
这样，他就可以在圣华金三角洲学院上夜校学习英语。
他的第一份工作——铲硫磺，又臭又脏，是他一辈子干过的最糟糕的工作。
像从前那样，他又一次努力学会了新的技能，这次是作为焊工修理罐车的阀门。
不到一年，他当上了工头。
金尼奥内斯英语长进了，他就改上夜班，开始全日学习科学和数学。
为了维持生计，他还兼当其他学生的辅导老师。
1991年，他获得准学士学位以后，被加州大学伯克利分校录取。
他搬到奥克兰一个房租低廉的地区，靠奖学金、贷款、少量的补助金以及一如既往地打工勉强度日。
在伯克利激烈竞争的环境中，金尼奥内斯表现出色，高等课程始终门门优秀。
他的优秀毕业论文论述人脑中毒品感受器的作用。
作为兼职，他还教授微积分。
到了1993年的春季，他的导师看了看他的成绩报告单，对他说他很有希望进入哈佛大学医学院。
金尼奥内斯决定试一试。
哈佛录取了他。
于是，在1994年的秋季，金尼奥内斯来到了东部。
三年后，他成为美国公民。
“那是在我翻越隔离栏后的第十个年头，我坐在那儿不禁想到，我的境况改善得多快啊。
”在哈佛医学院毕业时，他在学位颁授典礼上致辞。
之后，他又去加州大学旧金山分校接受神经外科学方面的训练。
这样的前景既令人兴奋，又令人心悸。
一个非法入境的干农活的墨西哥人能成为脑外科医生？似乎不可能。
结果，住院实习期成了金尼奥内斯美国之旅的人生低谷。
“神经外科学是为出身医学世家的人士预留的,”他郑重其事地说。
“很少看到像我这样的人能进入这个要求极高的领域，这是一个许多病人会死亡的领域。
”以前，他曾遭受过歧视——农场主的儿子对他故意视而不见，过去一位女友的母亲因为他的国籍而对他不屑一顾。
“他们这样做使我心中的怒火烧得更旺，”他说。
为了一年挣30,000美元，每周得干130个小时，他承认有时他想到了放弃。
“没能力养家糊口，我感受到了父亲当年的心境，”他说。
“但是，我有一个梦。
”此刻，现年40岁的著名脑外科医生金尼奥内斯大夫正端坐在病人的床边。
这是一个星期五的上午，在位于巴尔的摩的约翰·霍普金斯湾景医学中心，和他在一起的是这一天他的第二个脑外科手术病人。
这位六十多岁的妇女长了两个肿瘤，其中一个长在控制肌肉运动的脑皮层中高度敏感的部位。
金尼奥内斯握住她的手，看着她的双眼。
“手术结果的好坏，使我每天提心吊胆。
坏的结果可能意味着生死存亡。
”他坦率地对她说。
她点点头。
金大夫——大家都这么称呼他——认为病人值得同情，也理应坦诚相待。
“那就是风险所在，”结束谈话时，他对她这样说。
“我们一切准备就绪。
过一会儿再见。
”四个半小时的手术进行得很顺利——病人苏醒时运动功能没有丧失。
金大夫为此欣喜若狂。
尽管金尼奥内斯大夫年纪尚轻，他的同事们对他却印象深刻。
“他不仅很有才干，尽职尽责，而且他能充分理解病人的需求。
”约翰·霍普金斯湾景医学中心的神经外科主任亨利·布莱姆如是说，“此外，他还是一个浑身洋溢着欢乐的人，热情奔放，充满行善天下的使命感。
”现在已是晚上七点多，金大夫已连续工作了12个小时。
其他医生忙着赶回家度周末，而他却直奔位于巴尔的摩市中心的研究实验室。
实验室是他手术室的延伸：他在那里研究手术中摘除的癌组织，借以找到新的治疗方法。
他解释说：“我们希望使脑癌变成有点像糖尿病那样的慢性病，而不是一种毁灭性的致命疾病。
”第二天下午，许多医科学生来到金大夫家，享用一顿兼具墨西哥及美国南部特色的露天烤肉餐。
在后阳台上，金大夫边翻转着烤架上的玉米薄饼边说道：“我想我的背景使我能更加人性化地与病人交往。
他们感到害怕时，我感同身受。
令我感到幸运的是，病人们允许我触及他们的大脑，触及他们的生命。

UNIT 4 Never too old to learnIntellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death. —Albert Einstein智力发展应始于出生，终于死亡。
——阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦Reading(p 44-45)Learning for life终身学习The more I learn, the better I know how much there is still left to learn. As I journey through my life, I have become aware that acquiring knowledge is not only a means by which you can better understand the world, but also a way of appreciating how much. as an individual, you do not know. The ability to admit this should not be perceived as a weakness, but as a strength. I once had an art teacher, pointing out that it is not only what you can see that is important, but also what you cannot see. When I drew a still life, it was impressed upon me that the blank spaces between the objects were just as vital to the success of the composition as the actual objects themselves. Also, as the great educator Confucius stated, “When you know a thing, to recognize that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to recognize that you do not know it—that is wisdom.”我学的越多,就越清楚自己还有多少东西要学。
Unit-4-A-View-of-Mountains课文翻译综合教程四
Unit 4A View of MountainsJonathan Schell1.On August 9, 1945, the day the atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, YosukeYamahata, a photographer serving in the Japanese army, was dispatched to the destroyed city. The hundred or so pictures he took the next day constitute the fullest photographic record of nuclear destruction in existence. Hiroshima, destroyed three days earlier, had largely escaped the camera’s lens in the first day after the bombing. It was therefore left to Yamahata to record, methodically －and, as it happens, with a great and simple artistry – the effects on a human population of a nuclear weapon only hours after it had been used. Some of Yamahata’s pictures show corpses charred in the peculiar way in which a nuclear fireball chars its victims. They have been burned by light –technically speaking, by the “thermal pulse” －and their bodies are often branded with the patterns of their clothes, whose colors absorb light in different degrees. One photograph shows a horse twisted under the cart it had been pulling. Another shows a heap of something that once had been a human being hanging over a ledge into a ditch. A third shows a girl who has somehow survived unwounded standing in the open mouth of a bomb shelter and smiling an unearthly smile, shocking us with the sight of ordinary life, which otherwise seems to have been left behind for good in the scenes we are witnessing. Stretching into the distance on all sides are fields of rubble dotted with fires, and, in the background, a view of mountains. We can see the mountains because the city is gone. That absence, even more than wreckage, contains the heart of the matter. The true measure of the event lies not in what remains but in all that has disappeared.2.It t ook a few seconds for the United States to destroy Nagasaki with the world’ssecond atomic bomb, but it took fifty years for Yamahata’s pictures of the event to make the journey back from Nagasaki to the United States. They were shown for the first time in this country in 1995, at the International Center for Photography in New York. Arriving a half-century late, they are still news. The photographs display the fate of a single city, but their meaning is universal, since, in our age of nuclear arms, what happened to Nagasaki can, in a flash, happen to any city in the world. In the photographs, Nagasaki comes into its own. Nagasaki has always been in the shadow of Hiroshima, as if the human imagination had stumbled to exhaustion inthe wreckage of the first ruined city without reaching even the outskirts of the second. Yet the bombing of Nagasaki is in certain respects the fitter symbol of the nuclear danger that still hangs over us. It is proof that, having once used nuclear weapons, we can use them again. It introduces the idea of a series －the series that, with tens of thousands of nuclear weapons remaining in existence, continues to threaten everyone. (The unpredictable, open-ended character of the series is suggested by the fact that the second bomb originally was to be dropped on the city of Kokura, which was spared Nagasaki’s fate only because bad weather protected it from view.) Each picture therefore seemed not so much an image of something that happened a half-century ago as a window cut into the wall of the photography center showing what soon could easily happen to New York. Wherever the exhibit might travel, moreover, the view of threatened future from these “windows” would be roughly accurate, since, although every intact city is different from every other, all cities that suffer nuclear destruction will look much the same.3.Yamahata’s pictures afford a glimpse of the end of the world. Yet in our day,when the challenge is not just to apprehend the nuclear peril but to seize a God-given opportunity to dispel it once and for all, we seem to need, in addition, some other picture to counterpoise against ruined Nagasaki －one showing not what we would lose through our failure but what we would gain by our success.What might that picture be, though? How do you show the opposite of the end of the world? Should it be Nagasaki, intact and alive, before the bomb was dropped －or perhaps the spared city of Kokura? Should it be a child, or a mother and child, or perhaps the Earth itself? None seems adequate, for how can we give a definite form to that which can assume infinite forms, namely, the lives of all human beings, now and in the future? Imagination, faced with either the end of the world or its continuation, must remain incomplete. Only action can satisfy.4.Once, the arrival in the world of new generations took care of itself. Now, theycan come into existence only if, through an act of faith and collective will, we ensure their right to exist. Performing that act is the greatest of the responsibilities of the generations now alive. The gift of time is the gift of life, forever, if we know how to receive it.望远山乔纳森·谢尔1 1945年8月9日，一颗原子弹投向长崎。

Unit-4-Psychology-in-Our-Daily-Life新编大学英语第二版第二册课文翻译
Unit 4 Psychology in Our Daily LifeIs There a Doctor in the Body?1 When you go to the doctor, you like to come away with a prescription. It makes you feel better to know you will get some medicine. But the doctor knows that medicine is not always needed. Sometimes all a sick person needs is some reassurance that all will be well. In such cases the doctor may prescribe a placebo.2 A placebo is a sugar pill, a harmless shot, or an empty capsule. Even though they have no medicine in them, these things seem to make people well. The patient thinks it is medicine and begins to get better. How does this happen?3 The study of the placebo opens up new knowledge about the way the human body can heal itself. It is as if there was a doctor in each of us. The "doctor" will heal the body for us if we let it.4 But it is not yet known just how the placebo works to heal the body. Some people say it works because the human mind fools itself. These people say that if the mind is fooled into thinking it got medicine, then it will act as if it did, and the body will feel better.5 Other people say this is not so. They say that the placebo makes the wish to get better become reality. The placebo will not work if the patient knows it is a placebo. This shows that the body is not fooled by it. It seems that if patients think they have been given medicine, they will have hope. They feel that they are getting some help. This gives them a stronger will to get better, and that is what helps to heal them.6 Placebos do not always work. The success of this treatment seems to rest a lot with the relationship between the patient and the doctor. If the patient has a lot of trust in the doctor and if the doctor really wants to help the patient, then the placebo is more likely to work. So in a way, the doctor is the most powerful placebo of all.7 An example of the doctor's role in making the placebo work can be seen in this study. Some patients with bleeding ulcers were put in two groups. The first group were told by a doctor that they had been given a new drug which, it was hoped, would give them some relief. The second group were told by a nurse that they had been given a newdrug but that not much was known about how it would work. As a result, 70 percent of the people in the first group got much better. Only 25 percent of the people in the second group got better. And both groups had in fact been given the same thing a placebo.8 The placebo has been found to work with a lot of different cases. It helps such things as seasickness, coughs, colds, and even pain after an operation. And there was an experiment done to see if a placebo could help old people stay healthy and live longer.9 The test was done in Romania with 150 people over the age of 60. They were put in three groups with 50 people in each group. The first group were given nothing at all. The second group were given a placebo. The third group were given a real drug and told that it would help with the problems of old age. (In fact, it was not a drug for old age at all.) The three groups were studied for many years. The first group showed no changes from the way old people in that village had always been. The second group (with the placebo) had much better health and a lower death rate. The third group (with the real drug) showed much the same results as the group that took the placebo.10 A placebo can also have bad effects. If patients expect a bad reaction to medicine, then they will also show a bad reaction to the placebo. This would seem to show that a lot of how you react to medicine is in your mind rather than in your body. Some doctors still think that if the placebo can have bad effects it should never be used. They think there is still not enough known about it.11 And yet, the use of the placebo has been well known for hundreds of years in other countries. Tribal doctors in some African countries have known for a long time that patients will get better if they think they are going to. Many of the "treatments" they use do not seem able to make a sick person better, and yet such treatments work.12 The strange power of the placebo does seem to suggest that the human mind is stronger than we think it is. There are people who say you can heal your body by using your mind. And the interesting thing is that even people who swear this is not possible have been healed by a placebo.人体内有医生吗？1 当你去看病时，你总希望走时能拿到一张药方。
