第三篇:研究生綜合英語1Cloze翻譯
Unit 718歲之前,我們的座右銘響亮又清楚:“我必須要脫離我的父母。”但是這些話卻很少付諸于實踐。我們仍然是家庭的一份子,即使我們離開家去學校,我們仍能感到自主權時不時受到威脅。
18歲以后,我們開始急切的渴望擺脫家庭。社會給我們提供了第一次能夠往返于家庭和自己小天地來回穿梭的機會,上大學、服兵役和短途旅行都是最常見的途徑。為了把我們的世界觀與我們家人的分離開,不管反對的呼聲多么高,“我知道我想要的是什么”,我們都會為自己的信念據理力爭。我們四處尋找可以稱之為屬于我們的信仰。而且在嘗試這些信仰的過程中我們常常陷于狂熱中,對那些我們的父母感到神秘和難以實現的信念有特別的偏好。
不管我們在這個世界中嘗試建立怎樣的暫時性的角色,有種擔心害怕始終縈繞心頭——因為自己還是孩子不能照顧好自己。我們用反抗和假裝的自信來掩飾這種害怕。為了尋找能夠取代父母的同盟者,我們向同齡人尋求幫助并與之行程同盟者。只要他們的觀點與我們自己的觀點相吻合,他們就可能會成為取代家庭的庇護所,但那是不能持久的。只要他們的觀點與“我們的團隊”的觀點有哪怕一點點的分歧,他們就會被我們視為背叛者。通常在18-22歲之間他們會重新返回家庭。
Unit 8對于大多數人來說,工作是我們的生活的中心,是我們生活的主要方面。我們將自己清醒時刻中的大部分放在了工作,為工作而準備以及上下班的來回穿梭中。我們所做的這一切很大程度的決定了我們的生活標準,也在相當程度上決定了我們在同伴中獲得的地位。我們經常聽到,因為休閑越來越重要,工作中的侮辱與不公就可以拋到九霄云外;因為大部分工作都是相當的難以忍受,所以從事這項工作的人為了彌補這種乏味,挫折及侮辱便會將希望寄托于生活中的其他方面。我反對這種絕望消極的觀點,因為在可預見的未來,在影響生活所能提供給人們的滿意度方面,工作所能提供的物質和精神上的獎勵以及工作的環境仍然將繼續起到至關重要的作用。然而只有一小部分人能夠控制他們工作的節奏及他們工作的環境;也只有極少一部分人為工作提供創造性,想象力和主動性的空間。
工作方面的不平等仍然是我們社會中不公平形式中最殘酷和最明顯的一種形式。除非我們正面處理它,否則我們不要奢望解決現代工業生活中的明顯的問題—這些問題是直接或間接的是由于工作中的挫折所導致的,更別談我們能有希望去創造一個美好,和諧的社會了。
Unit 9在我看來,侵犯隱私就是將某個人個人情況的詳細資料公布于世:比如說誰是個同性戀,誰是個艾滋病攜帶者,誰有婚外情,誰卷入了桃色事件,誰有了個私生子等等。這些對別人隱私的揭露正好成為那些花邊小報最愛的故事素材,而且還引起了人們對于個人隱私的道德上的關注。我無意去討論用什么樣的行政或法律程序去保護隱私是不是適合這類的問題,也不想是否應該有一部保護隱私的法律,我也不主張所有的隱私都是不可侵犯的。現在,我只是假定每個人都對她的隱私有強烈的興趣并且任何對別人隱私的侵犯都必須給出充分的理由來證明這種侵犯是合理的。這些充分理由首先要滿足一個前提,即把別人的隱私公之于眾的目的不應該是幫助某人達到某種目的的手段,而只能是迫不得已時采取的措施。揭發內閣部長的性丑聞能夠完全的向世人展示他的虛偽以及他是多么不適合擔任高級職務。但是如果把注意力放到他的公共行為上能夠取得損毀他名譽的同等效果的話,那么對于他私生活的揭露就沒有必要了。
沒有人會幼稚到否認記者可能會使他們的所作所為合法化。揭露政治人物的桃色事件的確能帶來作用,比如可以揭露他是個政治騙子或者他不再值得民眾信任,但是這種揭露方式同樣也取悅了那些已付費的公眾,他們因為了解了別人的桃色事件而激動不已。那種因為高尚的目的賦予了這種揭露權利的說法是虛偽的,它的目的實際上是為了得到那些讀者們的低級趣味,但這種現象早已司空見慣。這種合理化對編輯和記者們的人格起了負面的影響,但是它本身卻沒有顯出這種行為是不合法的跡象。
Unit 10
廣告業就是采取一種大眾容易接受和能夠迅速產生說服力的語言去說服大眾。沒有任何廣告商想要發行這樣一種廣告:既不清晰,也不會對廣大民眾產生說服力。但是對于代理商來講,雖然他們贊同廣告是用來促進產品銷售的,但他們并不認為這樣做是最有效的方式。經過了很多年,基于他們對于所要宣傳的不同受眾的理解,廣告公司在他們內部形成了自己獨特的風格。沒有兩家廣告商愿用同樣的方式處理同樣的商品。對于那些將廣告業作為一個具有嚴格戒律和高競爭力的職業的廣告受眾來講,廣告不僅僅是復雜的銷售方式,更是一個服務于制造商的具有吸引力的語言與視覺手段。事實上,對于那些嚴格專業地審查廣告的受眾來講,商品只不過是一個出發點而已。廣告通常會比商品生存的時間更久。在早期的廣告中的商品已經不復存在,所以我們必須撇開我們對產品的反映來考慮廣告。這種脫離所宣傳的產品的審查廣告的意義不是我們完全忽視產品,而是我們會在廣告意境中對產品的談論與描述去了解產品。當然,我們沒有必要得先去嘗試運用產品,才能夠欣賞到廣告中的技術運用與設計。
Unit 2
對于那些在媒體中很出名和引領美國生活方式的那些中產階級或是受過高等教育的人來講,他們在對待求婚的問題上已經發生了極大的變化。曾幾何時,求婚是每個人必經的常規程序,它需要經歷很長的時期,有時會持續很多年,而且它也只是一個臨時性的時期,在這段期間內,未來的丈夫或妻子均可以反悔,但這段時期內他們的感情會變得越來越專一,并且被社會所認可。求愛在訂婚宣布之前和之后都存在,盡管悔婚會有嚴重的后果,有可能導致女孩從此一蹶不振。
有很多明確的規則來約束這段求愛時期,從早期新英格蘭時期所允許的“捆綁”規則——年輕夫婦并肩和衣而睡,到嚴格的儀式——男方要送什么樣的禮物給他的未婚妻,按照慣例,必須是比較貴重的禮物。禮物必須是那些易耗品,如糖果或鮮花,或者是那些堅不可摧的,如鉆石。如果感情破裂,鉆石可以返還,它的價值仍然是沒有折損的。但是,那些會由于使用而損耗的物品,如手套或皮毛類產品,是禁止被贈送的。一位紳士可以邀請一位女士坐出租汽車或乘他自己的車,但當他們同程旅行時,男士為女士付火車費便是被認為不適宜的行為了。
Unit 3
我們沒有辦法逃避學生作弊的這個現實。學生上交的家庭作業和項目任務,都是從別處抄襲而來,或由其父母完成,更有甚者是花錢購買而來。學生在考試中相互抄襲,而且他們嘗試提前獲得考試信息。當作弊涉及到了謊言,哄騙,欺詐或是詐騙時,這種行為就應該被禁止了。但是正確的解決方式不是禁止和懲罰,而是應通過考試的初衷來加以解決。為什么我們最好的學生被強迫作弊,或在考試中幫助其他同學,或是對其他同學的抄襲視而不見。我認為,在我們學校的系統中,引起作弊的根本原因是不合理的課程和考試。改變這種行為,那么作弊行為自然會減少。
鑒于此,從許多方面來說,這種在學校我們稱之為作弊的行為,其實是我們現實生活中所渴望的行為。想一想,學校系統中的什么行為會被我們稱之為作弊呢?向別人求助,復制答案,復制試卷等。
這些行為中的大部分稱為“聯絡交流”或“分工協作”或許會更加合適,在工作中,這些行為是被鼓勵并且會受到物質獎勵的。因此,許多專家會告訴你,他們真正的專長不是他們知道些什么,而是他們認識誰——也就是說,專家們通常會知道向何人及何地去尋找答案。在現實生活中,當我們遇到問題時,不管答案的來源如何,我們都想得到答案,也就是說,我們向那些曾經經歷的人去尋找答案,尋求幫助并與之合作。
在學校里,我們過分的注重獨立工作。或許,只有在學校系統中,獨立分離的工作才會受到鼓勵,而合作共事會受到懲罰。在考試中,不僅抄襲別人的成果或尋求別人的幫助是被禁止的,而且查閱書本或網絡都是不可能的事情。然而,學校外面的世界存在著許多重要的技能,所以,應該教學生如何在一個團隊中有效率的工作,如何使用參考書,如何有效的使用因特網,尤其要懂得區分重要和不重要的,如何去其糟粕,取其精華。
