翻译

In the United Nations and its various organizations, such as UNESCO and WHO, six official languages are used. These were chosen on the basis of the size of world population using these languages. Can you guess what they are? Chinese, English, Russian, French, Spanish and Arabic. Although these six languages are all spoken by a very large number of people, English is still the most commonly used one. Sixty percent of all the world’s radio programs are in English. Seventy percent of all the mail is written in English. There are historical and political reasons for this. This history of the British imperialism is not an admirable one. Still the reality of the widespread use of English, which resulted from it must be accepted. Many African countries use English because it unites their people who speak many different tribal languages. It also gives them a close link with the rest of the world. In India, Hindi is the official language, yet English is much more widely used than Hindi.

在联合国和其他组织，例如联合国科教文组织和世界卫生组织，使用六种

官方语言。他们是以使用这些语言的世界人口规模为依据来选择的。你能

猜出他们是哪些么？中文，英语，俄语，法语，西班牙语和阿拉伯语。尽

管这六种语言都有一个庞大的使用人群，英语仍然是最常用的一种。世界

上所有的广播节目的百分之六十都是使用英语。世界上所有邮件的百分之

七十都是用英语书写的。这有历史和政治上的原因。这段英国帝国的历史

并不是一段值得尊重的历史。英语被广泛使用所带来的事实仍然要被接受。许多非洲国家使用英语是因为英语使说不同部落语言的人们团结起来。同

时英语也给了他们与世界紧密相连的纽带。在印度，印度语是官方语言，

然而英语的使用范围比印度语更为广泛。

In the modern world there is another reason for the increasingly widespread use of English. It is a language well suited to modern and technology. Half of the world’s scientific literature is written in English. Japan is a very modern and highly developed country. It has still kept its traditional and used it for scientific study. For a long time, Japanese airlines prepared their aeronautical engineering manuals in Japanese. These manuals are very important for guiding engineers in servicing the large jets. Recently they decided to stop translating, and just use English for these engineering manuals. It is easier than to translate all the complex technological details of these manuals into Japanese. Fifty years ago all westerners studying science at high levels had to learn German, as a main language of science. Now English has replaced German for scientific writing. Many German scientists publish their research results in English. Therefore, knowledge of English is extremely valuable for any person wanting to understand the modern world.

在现代世界还有英语日益广泛使用的另一个原因。它是一种适合科学技术的语言。世界上的科学文献的一半是用英语写的。日本是一个非常现代化和高度发达的国家。它仍然保持它传统的语言并且用于科学研究。在很长的一段时间，日本航空公司准备了他们的航空手册在日本。这些手册对于大型喷气式客机的指导工程师是很重要的。最近他们决定停止翻译，并且在工程手册上只使用英语。直接使用英语操作手册比把这些复杂的技术手册翻译成日语更容易。五十年前所有西方人学习高水准的科学技术时都不得不学习作为科学技术的主要语言德语。现在英语在科学写作上已经取代了德语。很多德国科学家用英语出版他们的研究成果。因此，对于任何想要了解这个现代世界的人们来说，英语知识是非常宝贵的

Actually the Leonardo had been gone for more than twenty-four hours before anyone noticed it was mssing.The museum was always closed on Mondays for maintenance .Just before closing time on Sunday three men had entered the museum,where they had hidden themselves in a storeroom.The actual theft was quick and simple.Early the next morning Perrugia removed the painting from the wall while the others kept watch.Then they went out a back exit.

事实上这幅画在有人发现它被盗时已经超过了24小时，卢浮宫通常是每周一闭馆整休的，在星期天闭馆之前有三个人潜入，他们藏身在储藏室。真正的偷窃过程是非常迅速的，第二天早晨其中一个盗贼把画偷走，其他人望风，然后一起从后门逃走。

Nothing was seen or heard of the painting for two years when Perrugia tried to sell it to a dealer for half a million lire. Perrugia was arrested on December 13th. Perrugia claimed he had stolen it as an act of patriotism,because,he said,the painting had been looted form the Italain nation by Napoleon.Perrugia was imprisoned for 7 months.Itseemed that the crime of the century had been solved.

当Perrugia打算把这幅画以50里拉的价格买给一个画商的的时候，画已经失踪两年了，Perrugia在1913年12月13日被抓了。Perrugia宣称他偷画是爱国行为，他说，这幅画是拿破仑从意大利掠夺走的。Perrugia 坐了7个月的牢，似乎这场世纪盗窃大案就这么被解决了。

Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performance from others is to treat them like heroes. Giving public credit to someone who has earned it is the beist leadership technique in the world. It is also an act of generosity that’s never forgotten.

总是给予表扬。许多领导者注意到，自己的部下要取得一个好的成绩的最有效率的方式就是自己像英雄一样对待他们。世界上最好的领导技巧就是当有人取得成就时就当众赞扬他们。这也是一种人们永远不会忘记的慷慨行为。

Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism, which often hurts rather than helps. Kenneth Blanchard, co–author of the one–minute manager, agrees. “Catch people doing something right!”he says. Then tell everyone about it. The loyalty

you will generate is arguably the most important currency a leader has.

给予赞扬比即使最有是最有建设性的批评更有效，这种批评伤害远比帮助大。《一分钟经理》一书的作者之一肯尼思﹒布兰查德也这样认为：“关注事情做得到位的人》”。并且把这告诉所有人。这样你所引发的忠诚很可能是一个领导者所能拥有的最重要的成功保证。

Take informed risks. “The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise,”says management consultant Marilyn Machlowitz. “Sky divers don’t go up in an airplane without checking the parachutes beforehand.”

不要盲目冒险。“最好的领导者都知道冒风险并不是一种轻率的行为。”管理顾问玛丽琳马克洛维茨这样说，“跳伞员在没有检查降落伞之前是不会上飞机的。”

Because the idea of risk also carries with it the possibility of failure, many of us tend to wait for others to take charge. But if you want to be a leader, you must learn to fail—and not die a thousand deaths. Pick yourself up and start all over again.

因为冒险的想法也包含带来失败的可能，我们之中的大多数人倾向于等待由他人负责带头冒险。但是如果你想要成为一个领导者，你必须学会失败并且百折不挠。跌倒后一切重头开始。

Show the way. In 1965, Lee Ducat was a Philadelphia homemaker with a child who had just been found to have diabetes. Ducat tried to reach out to other mothers of diabetic kids, but at first no one wanted to talk.

以身作则。在1965年，费城的一名家庭主妇李〃杜坎特，她的孩子被确诊为得了糖尿病。杜坎特试着主动联系其他同样小孩患有糖尿病的母亲，但是一开始没有人愿意与她深入交谈。
