The Cult of Celebrity Professors

—Celebrity professors are a good thing. Really!

Few species have as many natural enemies as the celebrity professor. Other academics envy their money and fame; journalists dislike their cleverer-than-thou airs; and everybody hates their determination to have it all—the security of academic tenure and the glitz of media stardom. So these are happy days for the rest of us. Plagiarism, lying, waffle-mongering: hardly a week goes by without some academic celebrity or other biting the dust, his reputation in __⑴__.

Stephen Ambrose was arguably America’s favorite historian, a man who wrote bestsellers faster than most people read them. An __⑵__of Hollywood blockbusters, he can also claim credit __⑶__ two of the best presidential biographies around, on Eisenhower and Nixon. But it now turns out that five of his books contain extensive ―borrowings‖ from other historians. (―I’m not writing a PhD‖, he has offered as an explanation—an unsurprising claim, as he would not get one for somebo dy else’s work.)

Mr. Ambrose must be grateful that attention has shifted to __⑷__ cutter and paster, Doris Kearns Goodwin. She was a fixture on American television, always ready with a telling anecdote on, say, Lyndon Johnson (whom she knew) or Abraham Lincoln (the subject of her next blockbuster).Her handling of the plagiarism charges against her has arguably been worse than the charges themselves. In the last 1980s she quietly mollified one of her chief victims, paying her some money. Now she explains her behavior by the fact __⑸__ she relied on handwritten notes—something other historians have managed to do without such dire consequences. Amazingly, Ms. Goodwin remains on Harvard’s board of overseers, despite the fact that she committed sins that might get an undergraduate expelled.

The hunt is now on for the next serial plagiarist. __⑹__, other charges are also being hurled at celebrity professors.

Take compulsive lying. Joseph Ellis, the author of a first-rate study of the Founding Fathers, told the students that he had fought in Vietnam when the closest he came to combat was sitting in a university library. Or take hypocrisy. Paul Krugman, a professor of __⑺__ at Princeton University, used his column in the New York Times to Savage the Bush administration for its links to Enron, when the fearless professor had himself received $37,500 from the energy firm. Or take general flatulence. A squabble between Larry Summers, Harvard’s combative new president, and Cornel West, a professor of black students , alerted the world to the latter’s recent work, which turns __⑻__ to be a mixture of post-structuralist mumbo-jumbo, religious rhetoric and rap music. More should be expected from one of only 17 people to hold the exalted title of university professor at Harvard.

Is this a case of a few bad apples? In public intellectual (Harvard University Press) Richard Posner, a federal judge, argues that it is the whole barrel. Although the book looks at all sorts of thinkers(not just whorish academics),Mr. Posner suggests that celebrity professors __⑼__ their influence to a fraud. They build their reputations tilling some minuscule academic field, and then pontificate on Charlie Rose about everything under the sun.

All true. Yet the judge, himself a leading intellectual for hire, is a little too harsh. Each celebrity professor may be a nauseous beast. Yet there are two big arguments in __⑽__ of what they do. Most obviously, they help to circulate ideas. They give educated laypeople a chance to get their information from real authorities rather than mere journalists. They give universities a chance to pay back some of their debt to the soc ieties that nurture them. The fact that America’s bestseller lists feature works written by academic authorities __⑾__ the ghost-written memoirs and celebrity suck-up jobs should be cause for rejoicing.

The second point is that they help to keep talented people in academia. Some noble souls will always be willing to put up with low salaries in exchange for a chance to pursue the truth :it is hard to imagine John Rawls hustling for a bit of extra cash. But others are inevitably attracted to money and bright lights. A __⑿__ of moonlighting is a relatively easy way for universities to keep some of their smarter faculty happy.

What about the costs of this moonlighting? Don’t academic superstars short-change their universities? Well, a bit. Yet the ostentatiously ludicrous Mr. West has undoubtedly helped to attract bright students to Harvard in the same way that those rather __⒀__ serious once did. Surveys suggest that academics who engage in outside activities are actually more likely to do their share of te aching than those who don’t. Besides, the link between popular success and lower academic standards is not sharp. Mr. Ambrose and Ms. Goodwin both started ―borrowing‖ other people’s work before they hit the big time.

Fundamentally, the besetting sin of American academia is not celebrity professors but hyper-specialization. Academics have a bit of crawling along the frontier of knowledge with a magnifying glass, blind to the wide vistas opening up before them, and often reducing the most engaging __⒁__ to tedious debates about methodology. By looking at the big picture, populists restore the excitement of intellectual life. Who has done more for literary studies in the United States: Harold Bloom or the thousands of post-structuralists and their insufferable conferences? Who has more to advance the understanding of American business: Peter Drucker, who has never been employed by an Ivy League university, or the entire list of contributors to the Journal of Supply Chain Management?

And the market does work. The same media machine that turned Mr. Ambrose and Ms. Goodwin into superstars is now trashing their reputations. The honest majority of celebrity professors improve the world by __⒂__ the fruits of academic research. The dishonest minority pay for their sins with the loss of their cherished reputations.

1. A. ruin B. destroy C. tatters D. damage

2. A. inspirer B. aspirer C. inspiration D. aspiration

What’s wrong with copying?

----Charges of plagiarism are flying in the world of books. Where does borrowing end and theft begin? Though disputed, there is a difference.

Every one knows the feeling. In a timely flash, the perfect quip forms in the mind and rolls onto the tongue. You deliver it to the table, and wait for the gasps or guffaws. In the silence that follows a dry violence says instead,‖ Yes I read it too.‖

Authors have to wait longer to find out that their words are not theirs alon e. But‖ unconscious borrowing‖, as critics call such silent plunder, is common among writers, even the best of them. Perhaps because night-foraging by the imagination is so vital to literature, good

writers react warily when, as now, chargers of plagiarism fly. Though naturally eager to protect their own published words, and not above a malicious smile or two when others get caught, most authors recognize that this is boggy ground. Between imitation and theft, between borrowing and plagiarism, lies a wide, murky borderland.

Since proving plagiarism is hard, legal redress is normally an expensive dream. The most that aggrieved authors can catch on is to shame the wrongdoer. But sham means attention, and attention brings sales. Recently, Ben Okri, a Nigerian-born novelist, claimed that Calixthe Beyala, a French one, lifted whole chunks of his 1991 Booker-winning novel, for her bestsellers. Plagiarism means copying

delicately the exact words. His were English, hers French. Showing that a plundered book is not the only source is also a defense. On the advice of lawyers, he has dropped his case against her, and in effect the affair has died.

The personal vendetta carries different risks, as Neal Bowers, a wronged poet and teacher at Iowa State University, recounts in words

for the taking: The Hunt for the plagiarist. One day, Mr. Bowers got a fax from California of a page from a poetry magazine containing, under the name of David Jones, a slightly altered version of a poem he had written for his dead father. Worse, he learned, had plagiarized other poets. Some editors sympathized; others did not bother even to respond. Mr. Bowers became, on his own admission, obsessed. He lost

friends. But in the end he found the plagiarist, through a lawyer, only to be offered $100 in compensation, and a whining apology.

Copyright and self-defense are not the only protection for authors. Humble readers are among their best police. The border between theft and borrowing is also vigilantly patrolled by scholars. John Frow, a university professor in Australia, has charged Graham Swift with

pillaging William Faulkner. According to Mr. Frow , Last Orders, which won Mr. Swift last year’s Booker prize , takes liberally from the theme and the fictional devices of As I Lay Dying .Its topic—how people dispose of the dead—is the same . Faulkner’s book has a one-sentence chapter, a chapter with itemized points and different speaking voices in different chapters. So dose Last Orders. That is not plagiarism, Mr. Frow argues, but ―imitation‖. Mr. Swift’s fault, he suggests, is not to have made an explicit nod to the grand old man from Oxford, Mississippi.

But there speaks a professor. Novelists are not bound by rules of doctoral quotation. The charge by Richard pipes that Orlando Figes

pinched finding of his without due mention has provoked a quarrel between these two well—known historians of Russia. But theirs is not a row-over literary plagiarism .The allusion of novelists and poets are different from academic citations. When T.S. Eliot and Ezra Pound freighted their verse with learned listings from across the planet, they called it ―collage‖. Eliot did at times give sources but was laughed at

for pretentiousness. In his Cantos, Pound seldom bothered to mention whose fusty trunk he was happily ransacking.

Where, then, dose honest allusion, which authors want readers to catch, stop and sly thievery begin? Samuel Fuller, an American film director, put it well when he said of admiring French new-wave film makers, ―They steal from us and call it homage.‖ Questions of imitation, unflagged quotation and borrowing, unconscious or not, lead straight to the middle of the middle of the boy. Between mortal pedantry and wet indulgence, is there safe ground?

Intention has a lot to with it. Poets, especially, are prone to unwitting copying since verse has mnemonic properties that prose does not possess. Thom Gunn, reading poems of his in London two years ago: ―my greatest fear is that I will discover or, worse, that s omeone else will point out to me---that I have s tolen another man’s words, thinking them my own.

Plagiarists, like forgers, have guilty intent, but of interestingly different kinds. An infamous early 20-century faker such as Hans van

Meegeren wanted his paintings taken for Vermeer’s. A plagiarist, by contrast, tries to pass off another writer’s words as his own. Forgers sin against authenticity, plagiarists against originality.

There are copying traditions in which originality and its cousin, diversity, are not only not celebrated but positively frowned on. Sacred literature, with its frozen, canonical texts, is an obvious example. But originality and variety have always been prized in western writing, burden that they are on authors. Copyright laws date from the spread of the printed book in the 16th century. But interest in authorship is ancient. All writers hate Homer, because Homer said everything first. Martial, a Latin poet and lewd gag-writer, likened his words to slaves, and an author who had stolen them to a plagiarist, or abductor. Varro, a schol ar and friend of Cicero’s, stripped the number of plays by Plautus from 130 to less than two dozen.

Most readers want a personal voice, hopefully one that belongs to someone who has read, thought and imagined a lot. People are maybe more knowing nowadays a bout how certain ―personal voices‖ come into being. Authors have editors; they have co-authors and ghost-writers, not to mention models and literary godparents to borrow from. But the idea—or idea –of poems and novels as unique, personal creations is still essential.

It is not hard to imagine two extreme sorts of writing where literary communication has broken down. One is so private, so personal and so original as to be hermetic and unintelligible. The other is so repetitive, mechanical and clichéd as to be empty. Between them is a pool of shared references and allusions fed by writers, but also by readers. Plagiarists drain the pool; borrowers put back what they take—though not necessarily in the same place.

第一单元? 如何发表演说 斯蒂芬·卢卡斯? ???? 在人类创造的万物中,语言可能是最卓越的一项创造。通过语言,我们可以分享经验、阐明价值观念、交流思想、传播知识、传承文化。确实,语言对于思想本身至关重要。和流行的信仰不同的是:语言并不是简单地反映事实,而是通过对事件意义的思考来帮助人们感悟现实。? ???? 优秀的演说者尊重语言并懂得如何驾驭语言。语言是演说者展示才能的工具,对于他们来说,如同其他职业的工具一样,语言也有特殊的功用。作为一名演说者,你应该意识到话语的意义,并懂得如何准确无误地使用语言,使其表达清楚,趣味横生,恰如其分。? 如同数字对于会计的重要性一样,准确地使用语言对于演说者至关重要。在没有确切知道一个词语的意思之前,千万不要盲目使用。碰到没有把握的词语,一定要查词典追根究底。当你准备演讲之前,一定要不断地问自己:“我究竟想说些什么?我究竟想表达什么样的意思?”因此,对于一篇演讲稿的用词来说,必须准确无误。? 如果语言表达清楚无误,听众就能很快抓住你的意思。鉴于此,演说者应该使用那些对于大多数人来说非常熟悉的词语,这些词语不需要任何专业背景就能够理解;演说者应该使用那些表达具体而不是相对抽象的词语;并且千万不要乱堆砌辞藻,哗众取宠。? 准确生动地使用语言能够使你的演说贴近生活。有一种方法可以使你的语言更加生动形象,那就是通过展开联想或创造语言图示。通过使用表达具体的词语、明喻或者暗喻等手法可以展开想像。明喻是对事物不同之处的比较,不过有些是相同的:它们总是包含“像……一样”或者“如同……一样”这样的连词。暗喻是一种隐性的比喻,它能够把两个形式不同但是有一些相通之处的事物联系在一起,暗喻不包含“像……一样”或者“如同……一样”这样的连词。? 另一种让你的演说生动形象的方法是注重语言的节奏感。有四种修辞格可以让你的语言富有节奏感:排比、重复、头韵和对比。排比是将一组或一系列具有相似结构的词语、短语或者句子排列在一起;重复是在一系列短句或者长句的开头或者结尾使用相同的一句话或者一组词语;头韵是指邻近或者相邻的几个句子中的首个词语的辅音字母相同;对比是将一些意思相反的词语或者句子并列在一起,通常使用排比结构。 恰当地使用语言是指语言的运用要符合特定的场合、特定的观众和特定的主题。同时,恰当地使用语言还意味着演说者要有自己的语言风格,而不是模仿他人的口吻。如果演说者的语言在各个方面都能够做到恰如其分,那么这篇演说成功的机率就会大大提高。??????? 优秀的演说并不是空穴来风、缺乏论据的决断。演说者必须找到强有力的论据来支持其观点。实际上,熟练地使用论据经常是区别一篇优秀演说词和一篇空洞演说词的关键所在。一般来说,通常有三种论据材料:事例、统计数据和证词。? ???????在演说过程中,你可以使用一些简明扼要的例子——比如过去发生的一个很具体的事件——有时候,你可以罗列好几个简明的例子,借此增强听众的印象。扩展性的例子——描述、叙述或者奇闻轶事——通常长一些,但更具体。夸张性的例子描述想像中的情形,这种例子能够将相关的想法有效地传达给听众。这三种例子都能够帮助演说者理清思绪、加强印象或者使演说更加娓娓动听。为了使表达更加富有效果,例子应该生动活泼,丰富多彩。 只要演说者对于统计数据用之得当并且加以解释,这些数据将有助于有效地传达信息,听众也能从统计数据中获益匪浅。最重要的是:演说者应该对统计数据了如指掌,并且运用得恰如其分。由于数据很容易操纵和捏造,因此,对于演说者来说,一定要确保图表没有张冠李戴,并且要确保统计方法正确,数据来源可靠。?

For decades, academia has paid lip service to the idea of collaboration, but the incentive-and-reward system has been slow to adjust . Despite the widespread interest in collaboration and its obvious value in an academic setting , collaboration remains informal and is actually discourage by the tenure process, in which scholars are penalized for sharing credit for their work with others.

However, his English was so poor that he always barely got by. The teacher admonished him that his poor English would be an impediment to scholarship. What’ s more, she showed her trump card: if Li Ming did not work hard. She would flunk him. He was also told that he should not learn English merely for the sake of his diploma, otherwise, even after graduation from university, he would still be semiliterate. Although Li Ming did not lose his composure, he was well aware that he had to settle down to work and follow through because his academic life was at stake.

She was not proposed to even when she was well over thirty.The reason is that she, as a career –oriented woman, is devoted to her work. Navigating between home and the company, she had hardly any time to socialize with people of the opposite sex. Her parents were gripped by anxiety at the thought of their daughter still remaining single at such an age. They did not know what to do and even consulted with some sociologists. But the situation began to change last month, when the headquarters of the company transferred Linda to the training department. On the new post , Linda met a man who tugged on her heartstrings for the first time. Ever since then, they dated virtually on a daily basis, and Linda realized that she would love the man beyond all reason. When she decided to take the matrimonial plunge, she informed me.

Unit One An Image or a Mirage V. Translation A. 从更大的范围上讲,选民们往往仅因为某个政客的外表整洁清秀而对他做出有利的反应。他的对手则因为没有生就一副令人信任的外表而常常遭到否定的评价。这种判断是错误的,其后果可能是灾难性的。就算许多选民投一位候选人的票完全是出于政治原因,但本不该当选的人,如果他有整洁清秀的形象,就会使他在势均力敌的选举中占有优势。 我们常常根据一个人的表达能力而做出轻率的判断。再回到政治这一话题上来,许多选民仅仅根据候选人公开演讲的方式就对他的能力做出判断。然而,一个候选人可能非常善于演说,但并不一定能胜任他所竞选的职位。我认识许多才能杰出的人物,他们只是没有培养自己在公开场合演讲的能力,但在与别人一对一的交流中却表现极为出色。这种能充分表达自己见解的能力,固然十分重要,但我们对于那些让人感觉善于辞令的人,往往产生错误的印象,因为很多情况下这种优点仅仅只是“表面现象”。不难想象,一位外表整洁清秀、讲话娓娓动听的政治家会轻而易举地战胜一位不事张扬但更为合格的对手。他之所以取胜仅仅是因为他的形象令人信服。 B. If you want a winning image with others, your first concern must be a winning self-image. The individual who has a losing self-image will never be able to project a winning image to others. He may be able to fool some people for a while, but his poor self-image will eventually make it impossible for him to relate favorably to others. Throughout the ages, great philosophers have stated, “Y ou are what you think you are.” It is imperative for you to have good image of yourself if you want to create the same impression in others. No matter who you are, everything worthwhile will depend on your own self-image. Y our happiness will be based on it. Y ou will live only one life, and in order to enjoy it, you must have a winning self-image. Since we can all choose how we want to think ourselves, we should try to have positive, winning thoughts. In your own attempt to build a winning image you must begin with the self — otherwise, the

Unit1对F的赞美 1今年将有好几万的十八岁青年毕业,他们都将被授予毫无意义的文凭。这些文凭看上去跟颁发给比他们幸运的同班同学的文凭没什么两样。只有当雇主发现这些毕业生是半文盲时,文凭的效力才会被质疑。 2最后,少数幸运者会进入教育维修车间——成人识字课程,我教的一门关于基础语法和写作的课程就属于这种性质。在教育维修车间里,高中毕业生和高中辍学生将学习他们本该在学校就学好的技能,以获得同等学力毕业证书。他们还将发现他们被我们的教育体系欺骗了。 3在我教课的过程中,我对我们的学校教育深有了解。在每学期开始的时候,我会让我的学生写一下他们在学校的不快体验。这种时候学生不会有任何写作障碍!“我希望当时有人能让我停止吸毒,让我学习。”“我喜欢参加派对,似乎没人在意。”“我是一个好孩子,不会制造任何麻烦,于是他们就让我考试通过,及时我阅读不好,也不会写作。”很多诸如此类的抱怨。 4我基本是一个空想社会改良家,在教这门课之前我将孩子们的学习能力差归咎于毒品、离婚和其他妨碍注意力集中的东西,要想学习好就必须集中注意力。但是,我每一次走进教室都会再度发现,一个老师在期望学生全神贯注之前,他必须先吸引学生的注意力,无论附近有什么分散注意力的东西。要做到这点,有很多种办法,它们与教学风格有很大的关系。然而,单靠风格无法起效,有另一个办法可以显示谁是在教室里掌握胜局的人。这个办法就是亮出失败的王牌。 5我永远也忘不了一位老师亮出那张王牌以吸引我的一个孩子的注意。我的小儿子是个世界级的万人迷,学习不怎么动脑筋却总能蒙混过关。直到施蒂夫特夫人当了他的老师,这种局面才彻底改变了。 6当她教我儿子英语时,我儿子是一个高中高年级学生。“他坐在后排和他的朋友说话。”她告诉我。“你为什么不把他换到前排来?”我恳求道。我相信令他难堪的做法会让他安心学习。施蒂夫特夫人从眼睛上方冷冷地看着我。“我不会换高年级学生的座位。”她说,“我会给他们不及格的成绩。”我大感紧张。我们儿子的学习生涯在我的眼前闪现。之前,没有老师以此威胁过他。我恢复镇定,艰难地表示我认为她是对的。到家时,我对此感觉良好。目前这是一种激进的做法,但是,嗯,为什么不这么做呢?“她要给你不及格。”我告诉我的儿子。我没有再多说什么。突然英语就在他的生活中成了头等大事。他期末得了一个A。 7我知道一个例子不能说明问题,但我在夜校中看见了一群愤怒、怨恨的学生,他们愤恨的原因是学校让他们一路混,直到他们甚至都无法再假装跟得上。这些学生智力水平至少也算中等,但最终都退学了,他们总结说自己太笨,学不下去了。我最常听见的话是:“我本应该被留级。”更悲哀的是那些高中毕业生在上课几周后对我说:“我都不知道自己是怎么拿到高中文凭的。”
