Unit one

Stumbling block in intercultural communication

1 在这个国际舞台发生重大变化的时刻,探讨为什么尝试交流的结果却令人失望的原因是必要的,这些原因实际上是跨文化交流中的绊脚石。

It’s appropriate at this time of major changes in the international scene to take a look at some of the disappointing results of attempts at communication. They are actually stumbling block in international communication.

7 本国居民可能会被灌输有这种期望:既然外国人穿着合适,并且能说一些本国话,那么他或她也有同样的非语言的准则、想法和感觉。

The native inhabitants are likely to be lulled into the expectation that ,since the foreign person is dressed appropriately and speak some of the language,he or she will also have similar nonverbal codes ,thoughts and feelings.

8 更糟糕的问题是死死抱住新语言中一个词汇或短语的一种意义,而不顾隐含义和语境。

A worse language problem is the tenacity with which someone will cling to just one meaning of a word or phrase in the new language, regardless of connotation or context.

11 先入为主和程式化思维的现象

第四个绊脚石是先入为主的观念和程式思维现象。如果我们对日本人先有了“难以理解的”成见,那么我们就会如此地解释始终挂在日本人脸上的不合时宜的微笑。阿拉伯人“易激动的”程式化形象,会导致美国学生与他们保持距离,或是当一群活泼的热闹的来自中东地区的人们聚集在一起时,美国学生甚至会提醒当局当心。如果一位教授认为来自印度尼西亚、墨西哥和一些其他国家的每名学生都“爱讨价还价”,那么可能会不公平地把这些国际学生的迟疑或请求理解为他

们试图利用优先对待。

The presence of preconception and stereotypes

The fourth stumbling block is the presence of preconceptions and stereotypes. If the label “inscrutable” has preceded the Japanese guest, it is thus we explain the Japanese constant and inappropriate smile. The stereotype that Arabs are “inflammable”may cause the US students to keep their distance or even alert authorities when an animated and noisy group from the Middle East gathers. A professor who expects everyone from Indonesia, Mexico,and many other countries to “bargain”may unfairly interpret a hesitation or request from an international student as a move to manipulate preferential treatment.

15 我却对他迷惑的表情大为一怔,猛然意识到要不是我之前出席过那场研讨会,不然也肯定也会认为今天这多云的天气不那么好,从而也会和团里其他美国游客一样,认同了这位导游的“幽默感”。

I winced at his bewildered expression, realizing that had I come before attending the conference I , also evaluating the weather as “ not very good,” would have shared the group’s inference that he could not be serious.

17 适度的兴奋和积极的态度可以使人满怀精力去应对挑战,但是由于适度的压力不断积累造成高度的兴奋,就会很快耗尽身体储备的能量;不论这个人是否愿意,必然会产生防备心理。

Moderate arousal and positive attitudes prepare one to meet challenges with energy , but high arousal caused by a buildup of continued moderate stress, depletes the body’s energy reserve quickly and defense must be used whether or not the person wills it.

18 两者之中国外人感到更大的威胁。他们感到陌生,易受伤害,对于铺头盖脑而来的大量信息,措手无策。除非他们采取防卫措施,比如回到他们自己的群体或自我当中,剔除或忽视这种刺激,或者变得具有攻击性或抱有敌意,否则他们的自尊所受到伤害会达到不可忍受的地步。这些防卫中的任何一种都不会带来积

极有效的交流。

The foreign members of dyads are even more threatened. They feel strange and vulnerable ,helpless to cope with messages that swamp them. Their self-esteem is often intolerably undermined unless they employ such defenses as withdrawal into their own reference group or into themselves, screening out or misperceiving stimuli, or becoming aggressive or hostile. None of these defenses leads to effective communication.

Unit three

How to cook a stepfamily

1 搅拌混合机式:这种心态认为把所有的原料放在一起搅拌混合,最后变成一种均匀的的混合物。

Blender. This mentality assumes all ingredients can be whipped together into one smooth mixture.

2 对继父或继母来说,和一个继子女有着亲密的关系,正在和另一个继子女建立关系,还和年纪较大的那个继子女有一定距离,这些都是很正常的。

It is quite normal for a stepparents to have close bonds with one stepchild, be working on bonds with another, while experiencing a distant relationship with an older child.

13 什么是你的方式呢?那么,如果所有这些整合方式一般都没有什么帮助,那应该采用哪种方法呢?我推荐一种瓦罐煨汤式的方法。选择这种方式的继亲家庭明白,时间和低温能导致一种有效的融合。所有的原料都被一起放到同一个瓦罐里,但每一种原料保持完整,以确保其独一无二的原始品质和特性。慢慢地并用心地去煨,低温加热会让所有的原料开始彼此接触。当原料的汁液开始流到一起,瑕疵被净化掉,每种原料中有益的、令人满意的品质都添加到了口味里,结果就成为一道由不同原料构成的美味的菜肴,这些原料用倾其自身的精华创造出一件

奇妙的作品。

What’s your style? So if all of these integration styles are generally not helpful, what style should be used? I recommend a Crockpot cooking style. Stepfamilies choosing this style understand that time and low heat make for an effective combination. Integration are thrown together in the same pot, but each is left intact,giving affirmation to its unique origin and characteristics. Slowly and with much intention, the low-level heat brings the ingredients into contact with one another. As the juices begin to flow together , imperfections are purified, and the beneficial, desirable qualities of each ingredient are added to the taste. The result is a dish of delectable flavor made up of different ingredients that give off themselves to produce a wondrous creation.

15 继亲家庭需要时间来适应新的居住条件,新的父母家教风格,规矩和责任。他们需要时间来相互体验,产生信任,形成忠诚,创造共同的历史。Stepfamilies need time to adjust to new living conditions, new parenting styles, rules, and responsibilities. They need time to experience one another and develop trust ,commitment, and a shared history.

17 作为一个瓦罐煨汤式的继父,你会过分担心为什么没有迅速地与青春期的继女相处融洽。懂得慢慢来的继父母知道与继子女发展关系的首要法则:让孩子来决定关系的进展。如果他们接收了你,那你就要公开地回报他们的爱。如果她仍跟你保持距离或是很冷淡,那你就找到把握规则,继续生活的方法。但是不要坚持认为孩子会自动接受你的权威和抚爱。

As a crockpot stepfather, you don’t worry excessively about why you are not immediately bonding with your teenage stepdaughter. Slow-cooking stepparents understand the cardinal rule of relationship development with stepchildren: Let the stepchild set the pace for the relationship. If the child is receiving of you, then openly return the child’s affections. If she remains distant or standoffish, find ways of managing rules and getting through life. But do not insist a child automatically accept your authority or physical affection.

19 象这样的小家庭的活动有助于孩子得到与自己生父或生母和亲兄弟姐妹在

一起,不受打扰的时间,尊重他们得到自己最爱的人的关注的需要。这也向孩子肯定地表示他们没有失去与自己父亲或母亲接触的机会。

Such a mini-family activity helps children get uninterrupted time with their biological parent and siblings, honoring their need for attention from the ones they love most. It also affirms to children that they have not completely lost access to their parent.

Unit four

Human capital and economic development

4 “人力资本”这一术语让人觉得是剥夺人的个性,在公众的脑海里联想到将人与机器等同的异化社会。

The term “human capital”suggests to some a depersonalization of individual and is associated in the popular mind with a dehumanizing society that equates men with machine.

7 技能广还便于劳动者在出现新的机会时跨工种、跨行业、跨地区流动,有助于人们重新分配人力资本和实物资本的资源,向效益更高的机会倾斜,甚至预见这种机会的存在。受教育更多的人更能吸收新思想,采用国外技术,提高国内技术,了解中国之外的知识并运用到国内的实际中。

Great skill also facilitates worker mobility across occupation, industries and regions in response to new opportunities, it helps people reallocate resources, both human and physical, toward more productive opportunities, and even to realize that those opportunities exist. More educated people are better able to absorb new ideas, adopt foreign technologies, improve local technologies, and understand and apply knowledge from outside China to local situations.

8 按世界标准,受过大学教育的劳动者的比例仍然偏低,且存在着巨大的地区差别,因此,需要有适合现代发展的教育基础结构。尽管录取比例在增加,但仍然

有很大的提高的余地。

By world standards, the percent of college-educated workers is still low and there is substantial regional variability so that the educational infrastructure for modern growth is needed. While enrollment rates are increasing, there is still much room for improvement.

9 强调实物资本而忽视人力资本的投资策略,不可能获得从更均衡的投资策略能够产生出的收益。

An investment strategy that emphasizes physical capital over human capital fails to capture the benefits that can arise from a more balanced investment strategy.

11 使这种不平等雪上加霜的是残存的户口政策,这种政策向跨区流动人员的子女征收超出已占家庭总收入的百分之十的正常学费。

This source of inequality is reinforced by the vestiges of houkou(hukou) policy that charges children of interregional immigrant above normal fees that are as large as 10% of total family income just for the right to attend school.

12 各地区学生的支出相差迥异,显而易见它与地方人均产值成正比且可精确估算。出身地偶然性决定学生受教育的质量。

The regional variation in cross section per pupil expenditure is enormous and the positive relationship with provincial GDP per capita is fairly clear and precisely estimated. The accident of birth place determines the quality of schooling received by students.

13 在中学和大学普遍实施的教育收费政策,可能会被证明是一种合理的手段,将稀缺的资源配置给那些可以从教育获益最多的人。

A policy of charging fees for access to education, which is widespread in secondary and higher levels, can be justified as a way to ration scarce resources to those who might benefit most from education.

14 教育的收益有些并不是个人直接获得的,这些间接受益在中国很有可能是巨大的。比如说,受过更好教育的劳动力队伍会产生新思想。

There are benefits to education that are not directly captured by individuals, and these externalities are likely to be quite large in China. For example, a better educated workforce produces new ideas and knowledge.

15 对政府的活动进行量化评估,剔除坏的投资保留好的投资,实事求是地执行政策,这是至关重要的。通过基于数据的成本效益分析,我们能够更清楚地了解到是应该偏重人力资本项目还是实物资本项目,多大比例才对。

It is important to evaluate government activities on a quantitative basis, to screen the bad investments from the good ones and to conduct policy an a factually informed basis. From cost-benefit analyses grounded in data, we can understand more clearly whether human capital projects or physical projects should be favored, and in what proportions.

16 按照西方国家经济学家将市场工资与教育程度挂钩估算方式,估算中国的教育回报率,会发现回报率在二十世纪90年代只是4%左右。

Estimating the rate of return to education in China in the way economists do in Western economies, by relating market wages to the level of schooling, one finds that it happened to be about 4% in the 1990s.

18 鼓励教育和职业培训方式之一是给以补贴,这会极大地增加政府开支,也许不可行。最近,高校录取名额急剧增加,但仍然有巨大的提高的空间。

One way to encourage education and job training is to subsidize it, which entails a substantial increase in government expenditure and may not be feasible. Recently, enrollments in colleges have increased dramatically, but there is substantial room for improvement.

19 提高需要政府直接花钱的人力资本的方式之二,是放开人力资本的劳动市场。一个自由的市场会使得像越来越多地主宰中国资本市场和产品市场的那样一

种激励机制发挥作用,大大地促进技能培训。

Another way to foster human capital that entails indirect cost to governments is to free up labor markets for human capital. A free market that allows the same kind of incentives to operate as those that increasingly govern capital markets and product markets in China.

Unit five

Gender ,poverty and environment

11 妇女除了在农业方面起到关键的作用外,世界上大多数妇女在拥有、继承或掌控土地以及其它财产方面的权力是不平等的。有性别歧视的继承法和财产拥有法限制了妇女为家庭成员提供长期食品保障的能力,也限制了她们利用土地作为抵押而获得贷款的能力。

Despite women’s key-role in agriculture, most of the world’s women do not equally own, inherit or control land and other property. Discriminatory inheritance and property ownership laws restrict women’s ability to ensure long-term food security for the family, and to get loans using land as collateral. 16 气候的变化极大地加重了疫情。原因是目前该地域的气温能抑制传染病媒介的兹生,而气温的变化将会适宜于这些传染病媒介的繁殖。

例如,由于常暴露于户外污染的空气中,妇女和儿童患呼吸道疾病的机率要大于男性。

Climate change is expected to increase the burden of disease considerably by allowing vectors to breed in latitudes to altitudes where current temperatures prevent them.

For instance, the incidence of respiratory illnesses is considerably higher among women and young children, who are constantly exposed to indoor air pollution, than among men.

22 任何人,从社会属性和空间方位来说,如果他们处在早期的预警系统圈外,他们则有可能遭受更多的疾患痛苦。

Anyone who is located (socially and /or spatially) “out of the loop”of information supplied by early warning systems is likely to suffer more from disasters.

24 将性别融入环境分析或者进行环境分析时考虑性别因素这一前瞻性策略要获得完全的成功取决于三个方面。

The full success of forward-looking strategies for bringing gender into environmental analysis—and vice versa—may hinge on three major areas of activity.

27 第三,提高职能机构的能力,使之能进行与性别相关的环境问题的分析。许多现代环境分析沿用技术/科学模式,主要依赖对生物物理数据的定量分析。另一方面,大部分对性别、环境的研究都沿用社会科学的办法。该方法更多地依赖材料的性质、案例的说明和以个人经验的描述作为证据。这两种分析研究模式的结合将是一个挑战。

Third, improving institutional capacities to incorporate gender-related environmental analysis. Much of modern environmental analysis is framed by the technical/ scientific paradigm and relies mostly on quantitative biophysical data. Much of the work on gender and environment, on the other hand, is framed by a social science approach relying more on qualitative material, case study narratives, and anecdotal evidence. Merging these two paradigms will be a challenge.

I’ve already stressed the importance of being patient with the integration process and not trying to force love, care, or togetherness. Often, in an attempt to quickly combine various ingredients such as people, rituals, and backgrounds, stepfamilies use the food processor, microwave, pressure cooker, and blender integration styles. 瓦罐煨汤式融合的继亲家庭的关键是温火慢炖。前文我已经强调了整合过程中有耐心,而不强迫关爱、强迫关心、强迫在一起的重要性。通常,为了快速的将诸如人,仪式和背景等原料合并一体,继亲家庭采用食品加工式,微波炉式,高压锅式和果汁机式的融合方式。 (2) Stepfamilies need time to adjust to new living conditions, new parenting styles, rules, and responsibilities. They need time to experience one another and develop trust, commitment, and a shared history. They need time to find a sense of belonging and an identity as a family unit. None of these things can be rushed. (2008 Paper A) 继亲家庭需要时间来适应新的居住环境,新的父母家教风格,规矩和责任。他们需要时间来相互体验,产生信任,形成忠诚,创造共同的历史。他们需要时间来寻找作为一个家庭的归属感和认同感。所有这些都不能操之过急。继亲家庭需要时间来适应新的居住条件,新的父母家教风格,规矩和责任。他们需要时间来寻找作为一个家庭的归属感和认同感。 (3) A watched pot never boils. 心急水不开。 (4) Meredith considered it her “down time” to relax and read a good book, Terry enjoyed playing with friends, while Joe mastered his latest computer game.

武汉大学 2017年攻读博士学位研究生外语综合水平考试试题 (满分值100分) 科目名称:英语科目代码:1101 注意:所有的答题内容必须写在答案纸上,凡写在试题或草稿纸上的一律无效。 Part I Reading Comprehension (2’×20 = 40 points) Directions:In this part of the test, there will be 5 passages for you to read. Each passage is followed by 4 questions or unfinished statements, and each question or unfinished statement is followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are to decide on the best choice by blackening the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. Passage One Mr Gordon is right that the second industrial revolution involved never-to-be-repeated changes. But that does not mean that driverless cars count for nothing. Messrs Erixon and Weigel are also right to worry about the West’s dismal recent record in producing new companies. But many old firms are not run by bureaucrats and have reinvented themselves many times over: General Electric must be on at least its ninth life. And the impact of giant new firms born in the past 20 years such as Uber, Google and Facebook should not be underestimated: they have all the Schumpeterian characteristics the authors admire. On the pessimists’ side the strongest argument relies not on closely watching corporate and investor behavior but rather on macro-level statistics on productivity. The figures from recent years are truly dismal. Karim Foda, of the Brookings Institution, calculates that labor productivity in the rich world is growing at its slowest rate since 1950. Total factor productivity (which tries to measure innovation) has grown at just 0.1% in advanced economies since 2004, well below its historical average. Optimists have two retorts. The first is that there must be something wrong with the figures. One possibility is that they fail to count the huge consumer surplus given away free of charge on the internet. But this is unconvincing. The official figures may well be understating the impact of the internet revolution, just as they downplayed the impact of electricity and cars in the past, but they are not understating it enough to explain the recent decline in productivity growth. Another, second line of argument that the productivity revolution has only just begun is more persuasive. Over the past decade many IT companies may have focused on things that were more “fun than fundamental” in Paul Krugman’s phrase.But Silicon Valley’s best companies are certainly focusing on things that change the material world.

大学研究生新视野英语课本翻译题(全)

一至五单元翻译题 1.The sum of $20 is【due to you as a bonus】(是你应得的奖金). 2. He had just received a doctorate【in recognition of his contributions to psychology】(以表彰他为心理学作出的贡献). 3. Insurance is only valuable if it【serves a purpose】(达到一种目的). 4. Don’t worry, everything will be【attended to in due course 】(在适当的时候得到处理). 5. This problem should be discussed first, as it 【takes precedence over all the others】(比其他问题都重要). 6. Y ou’ve been promoted? This【calls for a celebration】(需要庆祝一下). 7. The scholar’s mind【thirsted for a few new books 】(渴望一些新书). 8. I am writing to you【with reference to the job opening in your department 】(有关你们部门的工作机会). 9.【Mary has a great diversity of interests】(玛丽有广泛的兴趣爱好), she like sports, travel, photography and making radio sets. 10. The banks have【committed themselves to boosting profits 】(承诺增加利润) by slashing costs. Paragraph One “Business happens 24/7/365, which means that competition happens 24/7/365, as well,”says Haut. “One way that companies win is by getting ‘there’faster, which means that you not only have to mobilize all of the functions that support a business to move quickly, but you have to know how to decide where ‘there’is! This creates a requirement not only for people who can act quickly, but for those who can think fast with the courage to act on their convictions. This needs to run throughout an organization and is not exclusive to management.” “一年365 天,一周7 天,一天24 小时,生意始终在进行,那意味着一年365 天,一周7 天,一天24 小时,竞争也同样在进行,”豪特说,“公司取胜的方法之一就是要更快地到达‘目的地’!这就是说,你不仅要把所有能支持公司快速运转的功能都调动起来,而且还得知道如何决定‘目的地’是哪里。这样,不仅对那些行动快速的人们,也对那些思维敏捷,并有勇气按自己的想法行事的人们都提出了要求。这需要全公司各部门的运作,而不仅仅是管理部门的工作。” Paragraph Two Lastly, professional status encompasses adherence to ethical standards. Most lawyers find self worth in setting an example—both within the profession and within the larger society—as ethical actors. When management affirms the special respect due to lawyers who act with the utmost integrity and civility in all of their professional dealings, it provides yet another form of compensation. 最后,职业地位包含对职业标准的遵守。很多律师通过在行业内外把自己塑造成一个具有良好职业道德的典范来找到自我价值。对那些在所有职业行为中都表现出极度正直和谦逊有礼的律师们来说,当管理阶层对他们理应受到的特别尊重表示肯定时,便又获得了另一种形式的精神报酬。 Paragraph One The decline goes well beyond recent surveys that show growing complaints about mediocre quality and high prices—no small concern in a country where tourisme gastronomique earned 18 billion euros in 2002, a quarter of all tourist revenues. More and more restaurateurs say that government tax and economic policies are limiting their profits, and thereby hurting their capacity to invest and hire more staff. They have become ensnarred in the red tape for which France is infamous—not to mention edicts from Brussels that affect everything from sales taxes to the bacteria in the Brie. 最近的调查显示越来越多的人抱怨饭菜质量平平,价格昂贵,而法国烹饪的衰落还不止于此。这在法国可不是个小问题,要知道2002年美食旅游为法国创收180 亿欧元,占到全部旅游收入的1/4。越来越多的餐馆老板反映政府的税收和经济政策限制了他们的利润,也就影响了他们投资和雇佣更多人手的能力。束缚他们手脚的是令法国不那么光彩的繁琐拖拉的公事程序,更不要说那些来自欧盟的规定,从销售税到布里乳酪里含细菌的指标统统都在严格的掌控之中。 Paragraph Two Zhejiang cuisine is light and exquisite, and is typical of food from along the lower Y angtze River. One famous dish is West Lake Vinegar Fish, which looks pretty and has the delicate refreshing flavors of nature. Many Chinese restaurants in China, as well as other parts of the world, serve this dish, but often the flavor is less authentic compared to that found in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang Province, which has unique access to the fish and water of West Lake. 浙江菜口味清淡,精致玲珑,是长江下游区域菜肴的代表。西湖醋鱼是其中的一道名菜。这道菜鲜美,酥嫩,带着自然的清香。中国乃至世界各地的中餐馆大都能找得到这道菜,但口味往往不及在浙江杭州吃得那般纯正。因为只

实践报告 这周是英语专业的翻译实践周,这次的专业实习让我受益匪浅,收获颇多。专业实习的主要目的是要培养我们理论联系实际,综合运用所学基础知识、基本理论和技能,独立分析、解决问题的能力。在大学的第三学年,实习是一个很重要的环节,对我们以后的工作实习也有一定的帮助。所以,我们要端正态度,认真对待这次的专业实习。 我们的主要任务是进行英译汉和汉译英的翻译实践,为此在实践的过程中,我总结了四种必备的翻译工具:一是灵格斯翻译工具,里面可安装各式的词典;二是百度搜索工具;三是有道词典;四是英汉词典;五是汉英词典。翻译的过程如下:首先可以现在灵格斯里查询不懂的单词和词组,寻找最符合原文的解释。然后采取同时在百度和有道词典搜索的做法,并对同种搜索工具搜索结果进行比较。他们有着各自的优缺点。所以我们最后用到的就是英汉和汉英辞典,可以对我们翻译之中的词汇,进行最后的确认,确定出最最准确的译法。 在翻译过程中也遇到到了一些困难,这说明在漫漫的英语学习过程中我还要继续努力。学如逆水行舟,不进则退,只要每天我认真学习,那就是一种进步。人生总归会有许多挫折,但我们若不跨过这道坎,就不会有进步,滞留不前。我们要用有限的生命创造无限的价值,勇敢面对每一个挑战。 翻译是运用一种语言把另一种语言所表达的思维内容准确而完整地表达出来的语言行为。当然纸上谈兵是无稽之谈,光有理论知识而不实践操作也是没有用的。有位翻译家这么说过,“学翻译犹如学游泳。只在岸边看别人游,或只听教练讲解,是学不会的。”所以要想提高自己的翻译能力,一定要通过实践。实践可以分为两类,直接的实践和间接的实践。 所谓直接的实践,就是自己亲身参加的实践,也就是自己动手翻译。一回生,二回熟,日积月累,第一手经验多了,做起来得心应手,翻译能力有所提高。所谓“熟能生巧”,就是这个道理。但自己能译的东西是有限的,从这种实践中得出的经验也是有限的。因此,还需要借助于间接的实践。 所谓间接的实践,就是研究别人的译文。比如,一篇文章在手,准备翻译,这时先找一些有关的资料或同类文章的译文看一看,在词语和风格方面定会有所借鉴。别人的译文是别人直接实践的产物,看了别人的译文,就是从事间接实践。

Unfortunately, not all these changes did good to the human society. Some of them have done serious damage to mankind and have been even predicted to destroy the whole world someday if out of control. In fact, mankind is not biologically programmed for violent behaviors like war. People are faced with a dilemma in which we would like to see science develop freely, but cannot afford the result of that. It is a

Just as Adam was cast out of Eden, I was kicked out of university; but while his transgression was eating the fruit from the tree of knowledge, my sin was ignoring the tree. After my dismal performance in my first year of university, I contemplated the reasons for my failure. Now, I understand the two factors that contributed to my downfall: the lack of a career goal and premature independence. 正如亚当被逐出伊甸园,我被撵出了大学校门:亚当违反的戒律是偷吃了善恶之树的禁果,我的罪恶就是无视知识之树。在我大学第一年差劲表现之后,我仔细考虑自己被逐出大学的原因。现在我意识造成我被逐出校园的两个因素:缺乏职业目标和过早的独立。 Without a career goal, I lacked direction and motivation. About halfway through my final year of high school, I was hounded by my parents to enroll in university, but until that time had not given any thought to what career I wanted to pursue. To silence their nagging, I told them I wanted to be an engineer. Though I got high marks in math, physics, and chemistry, I was bored with them, and my dislike of the science became apparent in the first four months of university. I failed all my science courses. 没有职业目标,我缺乏方向和动机,大约在中学最后一年过了一半时,我被父母追逼着到大学注册,但直到那时候我还未考虑我想追求什么职业。为了让他们不再说我,我告诉他们我想当一名工程师。虽然我在数学、物理和化学上得了高分,但是我对这些课感到厌倦,接着在大学的最初四个月里我不喜欢这些理科课程变得明显了。所有的理科课程都不及格。B.
