文檔簡介

全新版大學(xué)英語第三冊課后翻譯.UNIT 1十年之前,南希做了許許多多美國人夢寐以求的事。她辭去了經(jīng)理職位,在鄰近地區(qū)開了一家家用器材商店。像南希這樣的人作出這種決定主要是出于改善生活質(zhì)量的愿望。然而,經(jīng)營小本生意絕非易事。在失去穩(wěn)定的收入后,南希不得不削減日常開支。有時候她甚至沒有錢支付她所需要的種種保險的費(fèi)用。有一次她連電話費(fèi)也付不起,只得向她的父母親借錢。幸運(yùn)的是,通過自己的努力,她已經(jīng)度過了最困難的時期。她決心繼續(xù)追求她所向往的更加美好的生活。A decade ago, Nancy did what so many Americans dream about. She quit an executive position and open/set up a household equipment store in her neighborhood. People like Nancy made the decision primarily because of their desire to improve the quality of their lives.But, to run a small business is by on means an easy job. Without her steady income, Nancy had to cut back on her daily expenses. Sometimes she did not have the money to pay the premiums for various kinds of insurance she needed. Once she could not even pick up the phone bill and had to ask her parents to loan her some money.Fortunately, through her own hard work, she had now got through the most difficult time. She is determined to continue pursing her vision of a better life.UNIT 2痛苦的奴隸生活堅定了亨森為自由而戰(zhàn)的決心。他獲得自由后不久就成了一個幫助逃跑奴隸的組織中的一員。他幾次偷偷地從加拿大回到美國幫助其他奴隸通過地下鐵路獲得自由。有一次在逃跑時亨森和幾個逃跑的奴隸被捕捉奴隸的人包圍。他將逃跑的奴隸喬裝打扮一番,成功地躲避了追捕。另外,他后來在加拿大的得累斯頓為逃跑的奴隸建造了一個居住小區(qū),并建了教堂和學(xué)校,逃跑的奴隸們在這里能夠?qū)W到有用的謀生之道。他堅信奴隸制將被廢除,所有奴隸終將獲得解放,種族歧視消失的那一天一定會到來。Hensons painful life as a slave strengthened his determination to struggle for freedom. Shortly after he achieved freedom he became a member of an organization that assisted fugitive slaves. He secretly returned to the United States from Canada several times to help others to travel the Underground Railroad to freedom. Once some slave catchers closed in on the escaping slaves and Henson when they were on the run. He disguised them and successfully avoided capture. In addition, later he built a small settlement in Dresden in Canada for escaped slaves, setting up a chapel and a school where they could learn useful ways of making a living. He held to the conviction that slavery would be abolished, all the slaves would be liberated, and the day was bound to come when racial discrimination no longer existed.UNIT 3在美國每隔15秒鐘就有人舉報一起入室行竊案(BURGLARY)。統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù)顯示去年竊賊(BURGLAR)光顧了兩百多萬戶人家。人們實(shí)際上幾乎無法將蓄意行竊的盜賊拒之門外,所能做的只是設(shè)法阻攔他片刻,從而使其暴露在巡警(POLICE PATROL)或附近溜達(dá)的人們面前。常識告訴我們光照是犯罪行為的障礙物。家門口必須安裝一盞燈,并在晚間開著。不管你是否相信,有些人,尤其是最晚進(jìn)家的孩子,晚上進(jìn)屋后不把門鎖上。空心門(DOOR OF HOLLOW CORE),即便鎖上了,也易遭賊侵入。因此最好選擇實(shí)心(SOLID CORE)門或鐵門,因?yàn)楦`賊很難將它們撬開。如果你有意購買報警裝置,別忘了索要報警器的標(biāo)志,并把它們張貼在窗戶和門上。最后,提醒一句,外出旅游時,一定要請一位信得過的鄰居,在你回來前幫你收好每日的報紙和郵件。這是因?yàn)榉旁陂T階(DOORSTEP)上或郵箱里成堆的報紙郵件如同廣告一樣使大家都知道你家里沒人。A burglary is reported every 15 seconds in the United States. Statistics show burglars entered more than 2 million homes last year. Actually it is impossible to keep a determined burglar out. All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus expose him to police patrols or those wandering around. Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity. A light should be fixed in the doorway and switched on at night. Believe it or not, some people, particularly children who happen to be the last to come in, leave their doors on the latch at night. Doors of hollow core, even when locked, are vulnerable to break-ins. Thus doors of solid core or steel are much preferred as they make it difficult for the burglar to pry open. If you decide to buy an alarm device, be sure to ask for its signs and put them up on both windows and doors. Finally, a word of warning-when you travel, make sure that you have a trusted neighbor collect and keep all the deliveries of newspapers and mail until you return. This is because a collection of newspapers and mail on the front doorstep or in your mailbox is an advertisement that no one is home.UNIT 4外星人是一個讓專家和外行都很感興趣的話題,各式各樣的國家和組織的研究者們正在采用不同的模式尋找他們。有的密切觀察稀有放射性(RADIOACTIVE)元素水平特別高的星球,他們認(rèn)為那些元素產(chǎn)生于人類尚未理解的外星人技術(shù)。有的試圖從宇宙“噪音”中分離出無線電信號。而有的則宣稱已經(jīng)看到了外星人,并能詳細(xì)描繪他們的模樣。研究者們將他們收集到的復(fù)雜數(shù)據(jù)匯編成一系列的報告和書籍。雖然確定的答案仍未找到,但并未有任何跡象顯示探索者們的希望因?yàn)榇煺鄱郎?,他們堅信他們的艱辛努力是完全值得的。The extraterrestrial has been a topic of interest to experts and laymen/nonprofessionals alike. Researchers of various nationalities and organizations are adopting different modes of investigation in search of extraterrestrials. Some make a close observation of stars with extremely high levels of rare, radioactive elements. They believe those elements have resulted from extraterrestrial technology that is still beyond human wits to understand. Some try to isolate radio noise from the noise of the universe. And some claim that they have caught sight of extraterrestrials and can even describe their appearance in detail. Researchers work up the complicated data they collect into a series of reports and books. Although no definite answer has yet been found, the explorers hope shows no sign of fading out on account of their frustrations and they hold to the belief that their hard efforts will prove worthwhile.UNIT 5在感恩節(jié)的氣氛中,喬治并沒有跟朋友們一起慶祝節(jié)日,卻沉浸于閱讀他父親留給他的日記。他的父親在連續(xù)再次完成環(huán)球旅行后在海上去世。這份日記使他回憶起自己與父親一起度過的每一刻以及父親為他所做的許多具體事情。喬治的父親過去經(jīng)常向他強(qiáng)調(diào)必須經(jīng)歷各種艱難困苦去追求卓越(EXCELLENCE)。他還教導(dǎo)他世界上沒有理所當(dāng)然的東西。即使今天,他依然記得父親如何引用“懂得感激是高尚者的標(biāo)志”這句伊索(AESOP)名言來教導(dǎo)他要把懂得感激放在最重要的位置。Amid the atmosphere of Thanksgiving, rather than joining his friends in celebration of the holiday, George was immersed in the diary left to him by his father, who died at sea after he completed two successive trips around the world. The diary brought back every moment George had spent with his father and many of the specific things his father did on his behalf. Georges father used to impress on him the needs to undergo all kinds of hardship in quest of excellence. He also taught him that nothing in the world could be taken for granted. Even today, George still remembers how his father would quote Aesops famous saying Gratitude is the sign of noble souls and tell him to accord the greatest importance to it.UNIT 6我們到處都能看到“搶眼”的青年藝術(shù)家。他們要么一年四季都穿著破舊的牛仔褲;要么大冬天也打著赤腳;要么飲酒過度;要么就是抱著創(chuàng)作一部杰作的幻想,實(shí)際上并不做任何創(chuàng)作的事。其實(shí),他們中的很多人只不過是為了看上去像名藝術(shù)家,或是為了同其他藝術(shù)家“保持一致”才這么做的。他們忘了,只有通過不懈的努力才能獲得成功。Here and there we see young artists who stand out from other people. They may be in worn-out jeans all the year round, or walk in bare feet even in winter, or drink to excess, or cling to the fancy of creating a masterpiece without actually doing any creative work. In fact, many of them act like this just to look the part, or to be in tunes with other artists. They have forgotten that only through persistent effort can one achieve success.UNIT 7湯姆生來跛足,有一條腿不管用。他很小的時候起就懂得,除非他努力擺脫(RISE ABOVE)自身的局限,他是無力謀生的;而除非他能獨(dú)立謀生,他就不可能得到他人的尊敬。這是他要贏得做人的尊嚴(yán)必須付出的代價。湯姆申請過許多工作,都遭到拒絕,最后他找到一份為必勝客(PIZZA HUT)送比薩餅的工作。后來他又到一個沒有人想去的推銷區(qū)做一家運(yùn)動服裝(SPORTS WEAR)公司的銷售代表?,F(xiàn)在,他在他的家鄉(xiāng)擁有一家頗為盈利的零售商店,還雇用了好幾個人為他工作,這些人都不拿薪水,只拿傭金。Tom was born a cripple, with one of his lower limbs useless. Early in his childhood, he learned that unless he so exerted himself as to rise above his limitations, he could not earn a living, and unless he succeeded in making a living on his own, he could not win/gain the respect of others. That was the price he had to pay for his dignity as a human being.Tom applied for numerous jobs, only to be turned down, before he finally got one as a delivery boy for a Pizza Hut. He then worked as a sales representative for a sports wear company in a territory no one else would want. Today he owns a fairly profitable retail shop in his hometown, and hires several people to work for him on straight commission.UNIT 8多利羊誕生后,克隆就再也不能當(dāng)作科學(xué)幻想而不去認(rèn)真考慮了。人們能夠復(fù)制一頭一模一樣的羊,這與克隆人僅有一步之遙。許多人覺得克隆人很可怕,令人反感。但是,這一技術(shù)具
