Unit3AThe Ad Council at a Glance

You may not immediately know us by name, but you do know us.你可能不太清楚我們的名字，不過你肯定知道我們。

For 59 years, the Ad Council has created timely and compelling public service messages for our nation.59年來，廣告委員會為美國創作了大量公益廣告，出手及時，引人入勝。

Our slogans and characters are more than memorableour children.1995年，為了最大限度地發揮所有這些運動的影響力，廣告委員會的董事會一致投票決定采取一項新的倡議，為期十年，來幫助不能為自己說話的美國人——美國兒童。

Dubbed “Commitment 2000,” its objective is to raise awareness and stimulate individuals to take positive action, so that our nation's children will have a better chance of achieving their full potential.該項行動名為“承諾2000”，目的是提高認識，激勵個人采取積極行動，使美國兒童能有更好的機會來充分發揮他們的潛力。

For the past two years the Ad Council has been frequently listed as a Top 25 Internet Advertiser, according to Nielsen/NetRatings rankings, registering approximately 11 billion impressions in 2000.根據尼爾森網絡測評公司的排名，在過去的兩年中，廣告委員會在互聯網廣告商中的排名一般都在前25位，2000年的點擊量約為110億次。

The organization's Website, 上介紹了所有的這些運動。

The Ad Council's pledge is to remain committed and vigilant in establishing a foothold for public service advertising in a rapidly changing media landscape.廣告委員會保證，要在這個瞬息萬變的傳媒世界，為公益廣告建立一個立足之地，并且 忠于職守，保持警覺。

Since the tragedies of September 11th, Americans have experienced profound grief and immobilizing fear that has shaken beliefs, threatened security and deepened the economic decline.9月11日的慘劇之后，美國人極為悲痛，恐懼心理揮之不去，信仰開始動搖，安全受到威脅，經濟下降更趨嚴重。

The Ad Council reached out to the federal government as well as important national non-profits with an offer to create and also distribute their crisis-related messages to media outlets nationwide.廣告委員會主動聯系聯邦政府及美國重要的非贏利機構，提出創作與危機相關的公益廣告，在全國媒體播出。

These new messages are designed to inform, inspire and involve all Americans to participate in activities that will strengthen the nation and help win the war on terrorism.這些新廣告的設計理念是教育和激勵全體美國人民積極行動起來，使美國人民堅強起來，為最終戰勝恐怖主義貢獻力量。

Unit5 My Advice to Students: Education Counts

Hundreds of students send me e-mail each year asking for advice about education.每年都有數以百計的學生給我發電子郵件，要我就接受教育給他們提建議。

They want to know what to study, or whether it's okay to drop out of college since that's what I did.他們想知道該學些什么，或者可不可以從大學輟學，因為我就沒有讀完大學。A smaller number of parents send messages, seeking guidance for their son or daughter.也有不少家長給我寫信，為子女尋求指導。

“How can we steer our child toward success?” they ask.他們問：“我們怎樣才能把孩子引向成功之路？”

My basic advice is simple and heartfelt: Get the best education you can.Take advantage of high school and college.Learn how to learn.我的基本忠告很簡單，而且是發自內心的：全力獲得最佳教育，充分利用高中和大學，學會如何學習。

It's true that I dropped out of college to start Microsoft, but I was at Harvard for three years before dropping out--and I'd love to have the time to go back.不錯，為創建微軟，我未完成大學學業，不過輟學之前我已經在哈佛呆了三年，而且我真心希望有一天能重返校園。

As I've said before, nobody should drop out of college unless they believe they face the opportunity of a lifetime.And even then they should reconsider.以前我也說過，誰也不應該輟學，除非他堅信自己正面臨著一個一生僅有一次的機會，但就算在那個時候也還是應該深思熟慮。

Kathy Cridland, a sixth-grade teacher in Ohio, wrote to say, “Several of my students claim that you never finished high school.Since you are a success, my students perceive that as a reason not to care much about getting a good education.”

在俄亥俄州教六年級的老師凱西?克里德蘭寫道，“我的好幾個學生聲稱你根本沒有讀完高中。因為你成功了，我的學生就覺得他們也可以不必要接受良好的教育。” I finished high school!

我高中畢業了的!

The computer industry has lots of people who didn't finish college, but I'm not aware of any success stories that began with somebody dropping out of high school.計算機行業中確實有很多人沒有讀完大學，但是我從來沒有見過有誰高中沒讀完就成功創業的。

I actually don't know any high school dropouts, let alone any successful ones.確切地說，我認識的人當中根本沒有高中輟學的，更沒有高中輟學后事業成功的。

In my company's early years we had a bright part-time programmer who threatened to drop out of high school to work full-time.We told him no.我的公司創立早期，有一個相當出色的兼職程序員，聲稱要從高中輟學來做全職。我們叫他不要這么做。

Quite a few of our people didn't finish college, but we discourage dropping out.我們公司里確實有好些人沒有讀完大學，但我們不希望人們輟學。

Having a diploma certainly helps somebody who is looking to us for a job.誰要想在我們公司謀職，有畢業證書肯定會優先考慮。

College isn't the only place where information exists.You can learn in a library.不一定只有在大學才能獲取信息，在圖書館也可以學習。

But somebody handing you a book doesn't automatically foster learning.但人家遞給你一本書并不能自動地讓你學到東西。

You want to learn with other people, ask questions, try out ideas and have a way to test your ability.It usually takes more than just a book.你需要向別人學習，提問題，將設想付諸實施，設法驗證自己的能力。這一切，往往不是讀一兩本書就可以做得到的。

Education should be broad, although it's fine to have deep interests, too.接受的教育應該是廣泛的，雖然對某些領域情有獨鐘也不失為一件好事。

In high school there were periods when I was highly focused on writing software, but for most of my high school years I had wide-ranging academic interests.讀高中時，我有一段時間醉心于軟件編寫，但大部分時間里，我的學習興趣相當廣泛。My parents encouraged this, and I'm grateful that they did.我父母鼓勵我這么做，對此我感激不盡。

Although I attended a lot of different kinds of classes in college, I signed up for only one computer class the whole time.I read about all kinds of things.大學期間，我修了很多不同的課程，但我從頭至尾只選修了一門計算機課。我讀書涉獵很廣。

One parent wrote me that her 15-year-old son “lost himself in the hole of the computer.” 有位家長寫信說，她15歲的兒子“鉆進計算機無底洞里了”。

He got an A in website design, but other grades were sinking, she said.他的網站設計課得了“A”，但別的科目分數都在下降，她寫道。

This boy is making a mistake.這個孩子犯了一個錯誤。

High school and college offer you the best chance to learn broadlyand to do projects with other kids that teach you first-hand about group dynamics.高中和大學給你提供了最佳機會，你可以廣泛學習——數學，歷史，各種學科——有機會跟著別的孩子一起做項目，親身感受到群體的動力。

It's fine to take a deep interest in computers, dance, language or any other discipline, but not if it jeopardizes breadth.你對計算機、舞蹈、語言或其他任何的科目有深入的興趣也無可厚非，但太偏執而舍棄學習廣度就不是一件好事了。

If you fall into an obsessive pattern in high school, you've got two problems.如果高中階段興趣過于集中，你會面臨兩個問題。One is that you're unlikely to change when you go to college.第一個就是進了大學以后你很可能沒法改變。

The other is that if you don't get reasonably good grades, it's hard to go to a college that has the highly motivated, capable students who can really help you learn about the world.另一個問題就是如果分數不夠高，你就很難考入大學，而無法向那些積極性很高，很有才能的學生一起學習，他們可以真正幫助你了解這個世界。

In college it's appropriate to think about specialization.大學期間可以適當考慮專業的問題。

Getting real expertise in an area of interest can lead to success--unless the specialty ends up being a dead end or you're not good at.深入掌握自己感興趣的領域的專業知識，能夠引導你走向成功，除非這個專業沒有發展前途，或者你并不很擅長這個方面。

Graduate school is one way to get specialized knowledge, although extended college education isn't always a good investment from a purely economic standpoint.讀研究生是獲取專業知識的一個途徑，雖然從純經濟角度來看，大學畢業后再接受教育不一定算是明智的投資。

Unit2AYour Dream Job:A Click Away

Less than a month from graduation day, Theresa Smith of Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois,had yet to find the right job.還有不到一個月就要畢業了，特里薩?史密斯還沒找到合適的工作，她就讀于位于伊利諾州埃文斯頓的西北大學。

The career placement center referred the liberal-arts major to JOB-TANK, an Internet site listing 45000 entry-level positions.就業指導中心建議這位文科生去查查JOB-TRAK網站，該網站上列出了45,000個初級水平的職位。

Smith selected four keywords: Chicago,business, marketing and full-time.史密斯選擇了四個關鍵詞：芝加哥，商務，營銷，全職。

Immediately she found 45 jobs meeting her criteria, including one as assistant to an administrator at the University if Chicago’s business school.她馬上就找到45個工作合乎她的標準，其中一個是芝加哥商業學院行政助理。

Four weeks later she was hired at a starting salary of $32000.四個星期以后，她得到了這份工作，底薪32,000美元。

“I had no training,” says Smith, “but the Internet was extremely easy to use.I’d never have known about this job without it.”

“我沒有受過任何訓練，”史密斯說，“但因特網使用很簡單。要是沒有因特網，我根本不會知道有這份工作?！?/p>

Smith is one Ameracain who clicked her way into a job.Steven Tools is another.不少美國人鼠標一點，就找到了自己的工作。史密斯是其中一個，另一個例子是斯蒂芬?圖爾斯。

In 1996, the Rockville,Md.,resident came across an employment site named CareerBuilder.他住在馬里蘭州的羅科維爾，1996年無意中進到一個招聘網站CareerBuilder。

He had just been promoted to director of marketing for a company that produces tradeshow exhibits and wasn’t looking for a job.他在一家生產商展展品的公司工作，剛被提升為營銷總管，并不想換工作。

But curious,he decided to “give it a try.”

但是出于好奇心，他決定“試試看”。

Tools filled out a profile with the keywords marketing manager and entered his e-mail address.圖爾斯填寫了一份簡歷，關鍵詞是market manager（行銷經理），并輸入了自己的電子郵箱地址。

Within a week his computer’s mailbox was filling up with available positions.不到一個星期，他的郵箱里就塞滿了可供選擇的職位。

Two interviews later he jumped to a new job.他去了兩家公司面試，然后就跳槽了。

“The Internet is like hiring a personal assistant.” says Tools.“Effortlessly you can become aware of opportunities that may elevate your career.”

“有了因特網，就像雇了一個私人助理，”圖爾斯說?！澳憧梢院敛毁M勁地留意到一些機會，讓你的事業上一個新臺階。”

Even a couple of years ago, most job listings on the Internet were in high-tech fields.僅在兩年以前，因特網上提供的工作絕大部分還局限于高科技領域。

Today, non-technical jobs — salesclecks, bank tellers, secretaries, for example — are the fastest growing segment of Internet employment opportunities.現在，非技術性的工作，如售貨員、銀行職員、秘書等，是網上招聘機會增長最為迅速的部分。

Most major newspapers and trade publications have online versions of their classified listings, enabling job-seekers to scan for work available across town, in another state, or around the world.大型報紙和專業出版物的分類廣告大多都有在線版，求職者能搜索到市內、國內甚至國外的一些工作機會。

Madeline Gragg and Nedzad Dozlic are still another two who clicked their luck online.馬德琳?格拉格和內德扎德?多茲里克也是通過輕點鼠標，在網上碰到了好運。

In 1996, Madeline Gragg, a 28-year-old high school teacher from St.louis, wanted a change.1996年，圣路易斯的一名高中老師，28歲的馬德琳?格拉格，想換個工作。

When a friend mentioned teaching English in Japan, Gragg was intrigued.有個朋友提到在日本教書的事，格拉格很感興趣。

She visited the popular Yahoo!website and typed teaching English in japan for a list of employment opportunities.She then followed the procedure for the online application.她訪問了著名的yahoo！網站，輸入了teaching English in Japan（在日本教英語），找到了一個招聘機會的列表，然后按照在線申請的要求提交了申請。

A week later she received a call and set up an interview with a recruiter in Chicago and got the job.一星期后，她接到一個電話，與芝加哥的一名招聘人員進行了面試，得到了這份工作。

Nedzad Dozlic, 27 years old, was scanning the Houston Chronicle website for the latest baseball trades.27歲的內德扎德?多茲里克，當時在瀏覽Houston Chronicle網站，了解最新的棒球消息。While online, he decided to check out the classified ads and spotted a job for a driver at a local car dealership.在線時，他查看了分類廣告，發現一家當地的汽車交易商招聘司機。

A refugee of the war in Bosnia, Dozlic had had a variety of jobs but was now really for something new.多茲里克是波斯尼亞的戰爭難民，曾從事過多種不同的工作，但現在他想換個工作。

He read more about the position on the dealer’s Internet site and called the number listed, Two days later he was hired.他從該交易商的網站上了解了該職位的更多情況，然后撥通了上面提供的電話。兩天后，他被雇用了。

“It’s really funny,” he says, “I was just checking sports, and I ended up with a better job.” “真有意思，”他說，“我本來只是在查看體育消息，結果卻找到了一份更好的工作?！?/p>

Another valuable use of the Internet is to research potential employers.因特網的另一個好處在于你能夠搜索到一些可能的雇主。

When Wendy Mello started her job search in the summer of 1997, she logged on to CareerBuilder, where she learned of a human resources opening in Arbition, a media-information-services company in Columbia, Maryland.1997年夏天，溫蒂?梅洛開始找工作，她登錄到CareerBuilder網站，發現在馬里蘭州哥倫比亞的Artitron媒體信息服務公司的人力資源部有一個空缺。

With a click of her mouse, Mello sent her resume to the company via e-mail and soon received an invitation for an interview.梅洛鼠標一點，用電子郵件把簡歷寄到了該公司，很快就收到面試通知。

To find out more about the company, she clicked on to Arbitron’s home page and that of its parent company, Ceridian Corp.,where she reviewed an annual report and the company’s financial performance.為了了解該公司的更多情況，她又點擊了Artitron的主頁，以及它的母公司Ceridian Corp.的主頁，查看了一份該公司的報告及其財政狀況

Mello also wanted to know how much she’d have to earn to maintain her present standard of living.梅洛還想了解，要想維持現有的生活水平，自己該賺多少錢。

Using an online salary calculator, she typed in her current salary, $34000, and Baltimore(the nearest big city to Columbia).她使用在線薪酬計算器，把自己目前的收入$34,000輸進去，再輸入Baltimore（巴爾的摩，離哥倫比亞最近的大城市）。

Within seconds her computer flashed $44000.短短幾秒鐘后，電腦屏幕上就閃現出$44,000。

“Because of the salary calculator, I knew what to ask for,” says Mello.“因為有了這個薪酬計算器，我才知道自己該要多少薪水，”梅洛說。

By accessing an online real estate service, she saw color photos of rental properties, including detailed floor plans.通過上網進入一家在線房地產服務公司網站，梅洛看到了可供租用的房子的彩色照片，包括很詳細的樓面格局圖。

When Mello arrived in Columbia, she felt completely prepared.梅洛來到哥倫比亞時，她覺得自己完全做好了準備。

The interview was a success, and the next day she was offered a job at a salary of $47800.面試成功了，第二天，她就得到了一份工作，薪金是47,800美元。

“The Internet is easy to use and it works,” says one job seeker, “What more could you want?”

“因特網很容易使用，而且確實有效，”一個求職者說道，“你還要什么呢？”

Unit8 You Are the Weakest Link, Goodbye

Do you remember the good old days? 還記得美好的往日時光嗎？

Innocent times spent sharing documents and executable files without a care in the world.在那樣的純真年代，我們共享文檔和可執行文件，根本沒有半點顧慮。

Okay, every month or so you might encounter a boot sector virusoften without the user even knowing.殺毒軟件確實能檢測出用戶會碰到的絕大多數病毒，而且往往在用戶毫不察覺時就已經處理完畢。However, the software must be updated regularly, preferably daily in any large company.然而，軟件必須定期更新，大公司則最好是每天更新一次。Even then, a very new virus can infect your users.即使是這樣，新的病毒也還是可能感染用戶。

With the rapid transmission of files through networks and the Internet, a virus can spread a considerable distance before it can be identified and protected against.通過網絡和互聯網，文件可以快速地傳輸，等到人們發現一種病毒并加以防范時，病毒可能已經擴散到了相當的范圍。

Fortunately, only a few viruses ever do this but the likes of Melissa and the Love Bug can inflict serious damage before their progress is stopped.好在只有少數幾種病毒有這么大的破壞力，不過像梅利莎和愛蟲病毒則是例外，人們還來不及制止，它們就已經造成了嚴重的破壞。

Whilst employees become suddenly aware during the ensuing media excitement, they soon forget about the virus threat as the stories disappear from the news headlines.然后媒體轟動，員工會突然警覺起來，但一旦新聞頭條不再報道這些事件，他們就會很快將其拋之腦后。

This is the danger.這正是危險所在。

Complacency can set in when there is no perceived “action” on the virus front with no global crisis, and the importance of being vigilant about viruses recedes in your users' minds.若病毒戰線沒有能察覺到的“大動作”，也沒有全球性的危機，人們就會洋洋自得，對病毒保持警惕的重要性的意識就會在用戶的腦子中漸漸淡化。

They forget what the big deal was in the first place-after all, the anti-virus software deals with the viruses, doesn't it?

他們會忘掉這件首要大事——畢竟殺毒軟件會對付病毒，不是嗎？ And isn't it the IT department's job to look after this sort of thing?

何況，這不也正是IT部門的職責所在嗎？

Before you know it your users are opening unsolicited attachments once more, downloading unauthorized software, and putting your company's data and credibility at risk.你還沒有反應過來，用戶們又一次打開了來歷不明的附件，下載了非法軟件，將公司的數據資料和信譽置于危險之中。

All because the users think that they are working in a safe environment.這一切都是因為用戶們認為他們的操作環境很安全。

Employees see anti-virus software, firewalls and IT departments as guarantees that their computers will work and will be safe.員工們認為殺毒軟件、防火墻以及IT部門足以保障他們的計算機正常運作，而且沒有危險。Of course, there aren't any guarantees.實保障根本沒有的。

Anti-virus software plays one, albeit important, part in the defense of your company from malicious attack but the security of your computer system is only as strong as the weakest link.And that, more often than not, is the human factor.毒軟件的作用固然很重要，但在保護公司不受惡意攻擊的戰斗中，只能起到一定的作用。公司的計算機系統安全與否實際上系于最薄弱的一個環節，而這個環節往往就是人的因素。

No employer wants to come across as a killjoy or an ogre.身為雇主，誰都不愿扮演令人掃興或者令人生畏的角色。

Most will willingly accept that the happiest employees are those who feel that they are respected and trusted by their employer.大多數人都愿意相信，員工若能感受到雇主的尊重和信任，肯定會很開心的。

Many companies accept that employees will send and receive a certain amount of personal email and make the odd personal telephone call.很多公司都默許員工接發一定數量的私人電子郵件，偶爾打一兩個私人電話。

However, the worry comes when employees start risking company security in pursuit of personal amusement.但是，如果員工為了追求個人樂趣而置公司安全于不顧，就著實堪憂了。

Funny screensavers and games downloaded from the Internet can seem harmless enough but they could easily be harboring a dangerous virus.從互聯網上下載有趣的屏?；蛘哂螒?，看起來好像沒有危險，不過它們很可能是危險病毒的藏身之所。

Software downloaded from the net is often unlicensed and unsupported, and may cause conflicts with existing software in use at your company.從網上下載的軟件經常是無使用授權的，而且不提供支持，可能與公司使用的其他軟件發生沖突。

Unlicensed, pirated software is an ideal vector for a computer virus.未經許可的盜版軟件是計算機病毒的理想的攜帶者。

Virus writers and hackers often use such software as the ideal “kick-start” for their virus distribution.制造病毒者以及黑客們經常利用這類軟件作為病毒擴散的理想開端。

It is vitally important that employees be educated about the virus threat but this cannot be a one-off event.對員工進行有關病毒危害的教育至關重要，但這種教育不能一勞永逸。

The potential threat should always be in the back of an employee's mind and precautionary measures should be taken as a matter of course.員工的潛意識里應該隨時留意潛在的危險，而且應該總是采取防范措施。

There is no harm in reminding people about what could happen if they let their guard down.應該提醒人們如果放松警惕會有什么后果。

In the end, education is the key to a virus-free environment and this is a continual process.歸根結底，營造無病毒環境，教育才是關鍵，而且應該堅持不懈。It may not be the most exciting thing on the agenda but it works.這可能不是日程表上最激動人心的事，但是行之有效。The lesson is simple.道理很簡單。

You can have the best software in the world protecting your company's defenses;你也許擁有世界上最好的軟件來保護公司的防護系統； you can even be the biggest IT company in the world;甚至可能是世界上最大的IT公司；

but without your users practicing safe computing they will always be the weakest link.但如果你的用戶不注意計算機的使用安全，他們將始終是最薄弱的環節。

俱樂部和社團

聚會、喝酒、吃飯——哦，還有工作——都讓時光流逝，但你內心深處確有一些很想追尋的東西，卻無法實現。你一直在尋找的，我的朋友，就是將你自己投身到大學社團中的機會，去發現各種各樣的活動。這些團體在像牛津這樣的城市里散發著勃勃生機。

不論你是想保持已有的興趣，還是培養新的愛好，你首先應該到牛津大學學生會的新生集會上去看看那些 令人眼花繚亂的俱樂部。手持一張新生集會的入場券，你就可以得到一份嶄新的關于牛津大學方方面面的綜合 指南。如果你錯過了這場集會，別泄氣，在新生周里發給你的手冊《牛津目錄))上，你將看到各種社團的介紹。你不妨稍作瀏覽——這可是你見識大學生活的重要機會。

人們投身社團生活的程度各不相同。有的完全沉醉于一個俱樂部，在接下來的三年里幾乎不跟非本俱樂部成員說話，直至成為該組織的領導者。其余的人更愿意選擇靈活的方式，參加幾個社團，參加凡是他們感興趣的活動。還有許多人，也許有點笨，完全無視大學社團的存在，只是與大學里的伙伴們在一起打發時間。

社團使人們有大量的機會結識校園以外的人，特別對于文科學生來說，這是難能可貴的。但是別忘了，許多學院有自己興盛的社團，你也能在新生周里加入這些社團。音樂和戲劇總是很受歡迎，有興趣的人聚在一起 做點什么，也并非難事。如果你有心為學校新搞一個莎士比亞說唱社團，你可以向大學校監申請注冊，還可獲 得啟動資助、貸款及其他好處。

尤其是對大社團而言，其中的一個負面就是學生的鉆營?！般@營”指的是有些學生在俱樂部或社團里追求職位的提高(通常是要做主席)，有些社團，比如牛津學生會或同業協會總能吸引那些比別人更有野心的人。當學生們突然想到他們空白的履歷，想到履歷將與他們將來能否找到一份高收入的工作密切相關，想方設法往上爬 就幾乎是在所難免的了。盡管如此，也不用擔心：絕大多數學生不贊成這種自我鉆營的行為。他們能夠從容地 面對生活。

三百多個社團，對每個人來說，都應該能找到自己的位置。除了一些傾向明顯的政治聚會和體育俱樂部外，所有的主要宗教都有自己的組織；有熱衷于不同國家或地區的社會與文化的社團，包括從中國到保加利亞，以及從蘇格蘭到埃塞克斯的英國各地區；有熱衷于義工、文學、音樂、戲劇和科幻小說的協會；還有五花八門的 奇特組織，比如瑪格麗特女子學院布丁協會，牛津特技協會，以及普胡牌友協會。你會喜歡它們的。

Unit3 PassageB 課文翻譯

心態平衡

在今天的現實生活中，保持心態平衡十分必要。生活中心態失衡，既無法很好地工作，心身也不能得到全面的發展。生活中有時心態失衡，人們就會覺得不滿足，不愉快。

在學習和工作中我曾經歷過巨大的壓力，也試著用各種辦法調整自己來減輕壓力。最終我發現，好好利用業余時間是個辦法。業余時間對我來說是不可或缺的。否則，我肯定會要發瘋的。我的大部分業余時間都用于讀書，聽音樂，跟生活中的朋友交談，或者跟網上遇到的人聊天。我真的很喜歡在外面找一個安靜的地方讀沃爾特·惠特曼和羅伯特·弗洛斯特的詩歌或著作。如果我沒有時間做這些，那我也干不好別的事情。讀書放松的同時，聽音樂對我來說也是很重要的。如果我情緒低落，我就聽慢悠悠的歌，如果我心情高興，我就聽快節奏的歌。音樂是人類共同的語言，能表達不同的情感。音樂能觸及靈魂，確切地說，我認為音樂表達的實際上就是心靈的感受。

同生活中的朋友和網上的朋友交流都是我業余時間和社交生活的一部分。朋友對我來說總是重要的。不論我做什么，他們都是我的支柱。不論我處于什么情況，我的好朋友們總是支持著我。沒有他們，我不可能過著健康的心態平衡的生活。不久之前，我經歷了一小段時間的失意。手頭所有的工作都沒有進展，也不再跟朋友們談心。就這樣過了一個禮拜，我的一個好朋友將我拉到一邊，邀我跟她出去散步。我們談到我的情況，她幫我一起分析我到底想干什么。真不知道如果她不在我身邊，我會怎么樣。

許多事情都有助于你調節心態。壓力是一種十分危險而又累人的經歷，往往是消沉和不幸的開始。但如果真有了壓力，你應該做點什么而不光是等待，比如跟朋友說說，或是聽聽音樂。這樣你也許就會覺得自己不該這么沮喪，這么心事重重。

在生活中，保持心態平衡是很重要的。要是心態失衡，每一天的生活都將是難熬的。大膽創新地利用業余時間將起到決定性的作用。
