Para:It is not surprising that although man did not hesitate to explore and take possession of most of the earth in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the continent in the far south was left untouched.

难怪在十八世纪和十九世纪早期人们迅速开发占领这个星球上剩余的土地时,这片地球最南端的大陆会仍然不受侵犯。

消息挑拨了小镇的罪惡,黑色残留物就像蠍之毒,或美食勾起的食欲,或得不到回报的爱。

6. The poison sacs of the town began to manufacture venom, and the town swelled and puffed with the pressure of it.

Para:What acted as the “venom producing bag”of the town, i.e., the increasing self interest in the townspeople, began to create poison which afflicted the whole town with a negative force.

Unit 1 在弗雷德看来,面试进行得很顺利。五天前他曾向一家小公司申请工作,现在那公司的一名董事正在对他进行面试。 在这之前弗雷德一直在当推销员。他现在想调工作并不是因为缺钱,而是因为作为一名推销员他几乎没有空闲的时间。 弗雷德在谈话前很担心,生怕头脑发昏说错话,但是很幸运他发现自己同这位董事的共同之处颇多。 显然这位董事很满意。正当弗雷德在想着自己很可能得到工作时,董事接着问他:“你愿意加班吗?” In Fred’s view, the interview was going very smoothly indeed. Five days before, he had applied for a job at a small business company and now he was being interviewed by one of its directors. Fred had been working as a salesman. He wanted to change his job not because he was short of money, but because as a salesman he could hardly enjoy any leisure at all. Fred had been worried that he might lose his head and say something silly, but fortunately he found that he had a lot in common with the director. It was clear that the director was quite satisfied. Fred was thinking that his chances of landing the job were favourable when the director proceeded to ask, “Do you mind working over time?” Unit 2 B.汉译英 汤姆一开始同父亲谈话就想直截了当地把自己的意思说出来。“爸爸,我作了一个重要的决定,我打算参军去(go into the services)。”父亲很吃惊,不赞同地看着他。“你不应该先得到学位吗?你总有机会服役的,在你……” “可是,爸爸,我今年无论如何会被征入伍的(be drafted)。”汤姆急着打断父亲说。“所以为什么不现在入伍呢(enlist)? 如果入伍了,我得到技术培训的机会就会更多些。要知道,那是很重要的。” “嗯……”父亲插嘴说,“你在大学里第一年学得不错,现在不是你离开学校的时候。” “爸爸,我大学一年级的成绩不很理想,我想我是赶不上其他同学的了。此外,我知道你多么不愿意背债(get into debt),要我成为你的负担,那么我永远不会觉得好受(feel right about)。” 听了这些,汤姆的父亲无言以对,但是他最终说了这么一句话:“我想也许你最好同你母亲谈一下。” As soon as Tom began his talk with his father, he wanted to gain his point directly. “I’ve made an important decision, Dad.

Valuing Childhood The value of childhood is easily blurred in today's world. Consider some recent developments:The child-murderers in the Jonesboro, Ark. schoolyard shooting casel were convicted and sentenced.Two boys, 7 and 8 were charged in the murder of an 11-year-old girl in Chicago. Continents away,children as young as 11 were being recruited to fight in Congo's renewed civil war. Children who commit horrible crimes ostensibly act on their own volition4. Yet, as legal proceedings in Jonesboro showed, the one boy who was able to address the cOurt5 couldn't begin to explain his acts, though he tried to apologize. There may have been a motive - youthful jealousy and resentment. But a deeper question lingers: Why did these boys and others in similar trouble apparently lack any inner, moral restraint? That question echoes for the accused in Chicago, young as they are. They wanted the girl's bicycle, a selfish impulse common enough among kids. But those children just out of second or third grade resort to lethal viciousness. The pre-teen soldiers in Congo are probably not making their own decisions. But they, too,are caught in a moral void, where the innocence of childhood and the instruction of family and 1s community are

新编英语教程第三版李观仪Unit课文及译文参考

Unit 1 恰到好处 Have you ever watched a clumsy man hammering a nail into a box? He hits it first to one side, then to another, perhaps knocking it over completely, so that in the end he only gets half of it into the wood. A skillful carpenter, on the other hand, will drive the nail with a few firm, deft blows, hitting it each time squarely on the head. So with language; the good craftsman will choose words that drive home his point firmly and exactly. A word that is more or less right, a loose phrase, an ambiguous expression, a vague adjective (模糊的形容词), will not satisfy a writer who aims at clean English. He will try always to get the word that is completely right for his purpose. 你见过一个笨手笨脚的男人往箱子上钉钉子吗?只见他左敲敲,右敲敲,说不准还会将整个钉子锤翻,结果敲来敲去到头来只敲进了半截。而娴熟的木匠就不这么干。他每敲一下都会坚实巧妙地正对着钉头落下去,一钉到底。语言也是如此。一位优秀的艺术家谴词造句上力求准确而有力地表达自己的观点。差不多的词,不准确的短语,摸棱两可的表达,含糊不清的修饰,都无法使一位追求纯真英语的作家满意。他会一直思考,直至找到那个能准确表达他的意思的词。 The French have an apt(贴切的) phrase for this. They speak of “le mot juste,” (the exact word) the word that is just right. Stories are told of scrupulous(一丝不苟的) writers, like Flaubert, who spent days trying to get one or two sentences exactly right. Words are many and various; they are subtle(微妙的) and delicate(细腻的) in their different shades(色调)of meaning, and it is not easy to find the ones that express precisely(正是,恰恰) what we want to say. It is not only a matter of having a good command of language and a fairly wide vocabulary; it is also necessary to think hard and to observe accurately. Choosing words is part of the process of realization, of defining our thoughts and feelings for ourselves, as well as for those who hear or read our words. Someone once remarked: “How can I know what I think till I see what I say?” this sounds stupid, but there is a great deal of truth in it. 法国人有一个很贴切的短语来表达这样一个意思,即“le mot juste”, 恰到好处的词。有很多关于精益求精的作家的名人轶事,比如福楼拜常花几天的时间力求使一两个句子在表达上准确无误。在浩瀚的词海中,词与词之间有着微妙的区别,要找到能恰如其分表达我们意思的词绝非易事。这不仅仅是扎实的语言功底和相当大的词汇量的问题,还需要人们绞尽脑汁,要观察敏锐。选词是认识过程的一个步骤,也是详细描述我们的思想感情并表达出来使自己以及听众和读者深刻理解的一个环节。有人说:“在我思想未成文之前,我怎么知道自己的想法?”这听起来似乎很离谱,但它确实很有道理。 It is hard work choosing the right words, but we shall be rewarded by the satisfaction that finding them brings. The exact use of language gives us mastery(掌握) over the material we are dealing with. Perhaps you have been asked “What sort of a man is so-and-so(某某等)?” You begin: “Oh, I think he’s quite a nice chap (家伙)but he’s rather…” and then you hesitate trying to find a word or phrase to express what it is about him that
