道德利益

怎样在商业中遵纪守法获得成功

道德利益，它存在于商业中，以及所有其他领域里。大家都知道各行都需要有一点伦理道德—你不能永远欺骗顾客并侥幸逃脱。但是如果你果真能侥幸逃脱，那就算你的幸运——利润回会滚滚而来！这可能就是你所指望的好处，为此你不愿放弃自己的指望。

寻求道德利益的概念是商界思考伦理道德的新途径，这种新途径不是仅仅用于调节奢望与良知之间的冲突。如果人们具有道德目标意识不仅不会削弱他们获得成功的动力，反而能帮助他们个人和公司获得最大成功，即最高利润。

人们对商业成功总是持有愤世嫉俗的态度。大家对商业道德的理解大致如下：

道德行为是社会为了保护公众利益不受商业欺诈而强迫商界咽下的一服苦药。

道德会妨碍利欲熏心的人们为达到目的而采取的冷酷无情的行为。赚钱就不可避免地要被贪婪、欺诈和盘剥的行为所玷污。

追求利润与任何道德、公平、体面和仁慈的事情是背道而驰的。对赚钱持怀疑的态度由来已久。圣经警告说，一个有钱人要进入天堂比让一头骆驼钻进针眼还要难。十九世纪法国小说家巴尔扎克（Honoré de Balzac）写道：“在每一笔巨大财富背后都隐藏着巨大的罪恶。”英国作家切斯特顿在20世纪初也论述过同样的主题，指出商

人是“唯一要对其职业永远说抱歉的人。”

现代媒体常常把商业定义为一种既自私又贪婪的运作，过程是极其腐败和冷酷的。在电视和电影中，商业挣钱充满了贪婪、盘剥和尔虞我诈。这些逼真的描绘日后甚至变得更加尖刻。1969年，在非利普?萝斯的《再见》一剧中的商人哥伦布忠告剧中主人公时说，“要想在商界站住脚，你就得多少有点做贼的本领”。华尔街20世纪80年代的偶像哥登?节科有一句经典名句：“贪婪为好”，与他相比，哥伦布看起来就象一个慈祥而明智的父亲形象。

然而一些重要的商界观察家对此又有不同的看法。如象颇受读者喜爱的斯帝夫科?威和汤姆?皮特斯等著名权威，他们都指出了怜悯、责任、公平和诚实等道德操守的实际作用，如他们认为道德是成功秘诀中的首要组成成分，道德标准不仅是值得称赞的选择，也是商业兴旺的必要动力。这些言词是毕业典礼致词和其他个人德行证明书中一个常有的主题：从长远来看，道德高尚的行为有助于建立信任和信誉，从而推动事业的发展，相反，伦理道德的瑕疵最终会导致事业的败落。幽默家多萝斯帕克在她所题写的警句中抓住了这一观点：“时间会弄伤所有的脚后跟。”

那么谁的观点是正确的呢？是主张道德和商业水火不容呢，还是主张道德和商业相辅相成呢？是否好人最终完蛋，那些主张做好事求成功的人是最终的赢家？商界到底是一个贼窝，还是诚实人的天堂？我与哈福大学的霍华德?加德纳和克来蒙研究生院的米哈利?斯克珍特米哈利两位同行在一起，于1998年到2000年期间，通过采访40

位高层商界领导，如麦当劳的总裁杰克?格林伯格和已仙逝的华盛顿邮报发行人凯斯琳?格雷厄姆等，我研究了这个问题，这是我们共同合作的“良好工作项目”的一个部分。我们发现一种强烈的道德追求意识不仅会促进商业的发展，而且会为建立繁荣的产业提供强大的优势。事实上，道德追求意识是商业成功的核心。道德不仅是只能让人保持诚实、摆脱困境的约束力量，更为商业欲望、激情和创新创造了肥沃的土壤。

这与你在典型的商业伦理课上会遇到的道德观大相径庭。这些差异是如此之大，因此在讨论伦理道德在商业中的作用时，我现在要说道德涉及的不是一个方面。商业道德有三个清晰的侧面，每一个侧面在确保商业成功中都在起着特有的作用。

PassageB

商业诚信

几年前，我和丈夫在报纸上登广告打算卖我们的一部老沃尔沃牌汽车。汽车在那里闲置了几个月都没有问津，最后一对正为生活拼搏的夫妇买下了它。由于我们是律师，精通法律，所以我们选用的合同书是在给年轻夫妇留出的签名地方的上方印者“按现状”3个大红字。“按红字”是一个极秒的法律术语，意思是如果这对夫妇一旦把车开离这里，车轮丢了或是传动器从车上掉下来，车子缺少轱辘或不能开动就是他们的问题了，与我们无关。

就在这对夫妇买下车以后第二天早上，他们从驾车上班的路上打电话给我们说，每当他们传动方向盘时，沃尔沃车就发出可怕的声音。

我丈夫打电话给我，讨论我们和他们双方的权利。按照法律，我们受全面保护，这应该是他们的事，与我们无关。然而，由于我们当年也曾经是一对为生活而拼搏的年轻夫妇，同情心让我们给他们回了电话，叫他们把车开到我们的修理铺检修。我们保证“修好它”。我们作为卖方的法律义务是有限的，因为法律赋予卖方有权在完成公平交易之后不再接受买家投诉的烦扰。然而，商业中有多少交易是真正公平的呢？难道我们不是生活在同一个世界吗？难道我们来生都不会见面了?吗当我们面对面站在一起时，难道不会因为需要想我们的公平交易过的买家进行这样的问候而尴尬万分吗? “实在抱歉，卖给你的车第二天就出了毛病，但是，法律就是法律”。假如一个人赢得了一切，或者在出售沃尔沃汽车中赚了点美元，但是却失去了灵魂，那么他又赢了什么呢?

最好的结果

我们这次与这对年轻夫妇的公平交易经理，所得到的结果是最好的，也是有利于我们的。噪音是由于驾驶杆上的螺丝松了，这是因为我们的沃尔沃闲置了几个月的缘故。我们的机械师免费为这对夫妇上紧了螺栓，他们又高兴又松了口气。而我和我的丈夫也避免了在天堂中依次棘手的窘况。

我们那些研究资本主义特性、商业道德、违背商业伦理以及违背商业伦理道德的后果的人仅仅开始懂得在成功的经济体制中潜在的价值系统的重要性。诚信问题仍然是我们价值鉴别的一个标准，因为我们还没有看到理想的以《圣经》中福音为基础的商业成功。“好人总

是落后”是一意追求眼前利益的坏人而编造的一句话。正式商业中还存在的诚信为成功提供了机会。许多生意人都没有遵循着条原则。那些没有学会这一点的人最终是要失败的。对于生意人来说，问题不是经商中我们要不要诚实，而是我们必须懂得城市是生意成功的关键。在商业道德中有许多令人心腹的离子，都可以毫无疑问地的出这样的结论：诚信是商业成功核心。

诚信与幸存的经理们

富兰克?西普教授，马里兰州索尔兹伯里州立大学的一位管理学专家，探讨了这样的问题：为什么一些经理会在过去是年中，在无数次企业裁员中得以幸存下来。他们没有经受过企业裁员的痛苦。而许多像他们一样的人却经常事业，有时长达一年之久。

关于这些经理，西普教授发现了两个非常重要的特点：第一，这是一群不同类型的人，有南有女，年龄不同，种族不同，管理风格不同。第二，这些经理和他们的雇员都可使一个非常通用的形容词来描写：诚实。

这些经理在他们工作的各个方面都恪守诚信。他们赞赏员工门能给高级行政管理人员转去新想法是，把功劳正确归功于员工，坦率地向员工们解释新的规则，新的策略以及和政策性或程序性的变化等。商业中时有所闻的不正当竞争、裙带关系和踩着他人往上爬等对于这些经理们来说都是格格不入的。这些经理们懂得，不仅仅是诚信，而且善良和公平这些《圣经》福音中原则也是重要的。他们取得了成

功是因为他们具备了这些素质，而不是违背了这些素质。他们的工作稳固知识因为他们恪守基本的城市律条。

诚实与信誉

一条日本的谚语为那些想欺骗他人的人提供了一条至理名言：千年的信誉会毁于一时的行为。商业中，我们对待他人的态度，不管是对顾客，对供应商还是对股东，都会回过头来帮助我们或是困扰我们。一家国际食品生产企业，于1970年做出决定想第三世界国家出售婴儿奶制品。这家公司是第一家也是唯一的一家打入这些市场的婴儿奶制品生产厂商。尽管当时在非洲国家销售婴儿奶制品并不违法，但是也有一个诚信的问题。在这些国家，即使在母亲营养不良的情况下，母乳仍然是儿科医生首选的喂养方法。着有几个原因：1 没有冰箱来保存尚未食用的听装奶制品；2 没有冲调配方奶粉的纯净水；3 不了解将貌似粘稠的奶制品稀释到母乳浓度的有害性； 4 在免费赠送的样品用完而母乳有断流是缺乏资金来购买配方奶粉。然而，该公司在没有透露这些弊端的情况下进入了第三世界国家并在销售配方奶粉中获得了巨大成功。但是，上述四个因素的存在却使这些销售奶制品的国家的婴儿死亡率火箭般地猛增。

攻势已经持续了三天，但是我们并没有取得多少进展。我们在前线与敌人交战的部队遇到了强力的抵抗。师长（DIVISION COMMANDER）命令我们营（BATTALION）绕到敌人后方发起突然袭击。然而，要绕到敌人后方，我们必须越过一片沼泽地（MARSHLAND）。我们很多人担心会陷入泥潭之中。我们营长决定冒一下险。我们在夜幕掩盖下出发，不顾困难，奋勇向前。幸运的是，夜间温度突然下降到摄氏零下20度，烂泥地都结上了冰。由于这寒冷的天气，我们于天亮前到达并从敌人后方发起进攻。这一下扭转了战局。敌人没有戒备，不久便投降了。 The offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground. Our troops engaging the enemy at the front were faced with strong/fierce/stiff resistance. The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered. Unit 2 汽车在二十世纪改变了世界，尤其是在美国和其他工业国家。汽车确实对我们大有用处，但也带来了一些危害，比如声音污染、空气污染以及公路死亡事故。据报导汽车事故被列为全世界导致死伤的主要原因之一。可庆幸的是，现代发明家们正在重新发明汽车。新的推进系统（PROPULSION SYSTEM）、燃料、设计以及制造汽车的手段在过去的十年中得到迅速发展。例如，通过使用卫星辅助的全球定位系统，汽车里的计算机能给汽车精确定位；随着遥感器的应用，智能汽车能排除不少汽车事故。 Automobiles changed the world during the 20th century, particularly in the United States and other industrialized nations. They are indeed of great use to us, but they have brought some hazards as well, such as noise and air pollution, and highway fatalities. It is reported that automobile accidents rank among the leading causes of death and injury throughout the world. Fortunately modern innovators are reinventing the automobile. New propulsion systems, fuels, designs, and means of manufacturing cars have all developed rapidly in the past decade. For example, by using the satellite-aided global positioning system (GPS), a computer in the automobile can locate the vehicle's precise position, and with the application of sensors, smart cars can eliminate most car accidents.

由于安装了光纤电缆、数字转换器和最新的无线传输系统， 从北京到布达佩斯的一系列城区和工业区正在直接步入信息时代。 一个蛛网般的数字和无线通信网络已经发展到亚洲的大部分地区和东欧的部分地区。） ●第二段翻译：（所有这些发展中地区都把先进的通信技术看作一种跨越经济发展诸阶段的途径。 例如，信息技术的广泛应用有望缩短劳动密集型的组装工业转向涉及工程、营销和设计的那些产业所需的时间。 现代通信技术“将使中国、越南这样的国家比那些困于旧技术的国家拥有巨大的优势”。） ●第三段翻译：（这些国家应以多快的速度向前发展是人们争论的一个问题。 许多专家认为，越南在目前急需电话的情况下，却要求所有的移动电话都必须是昂贵的数字型电话，这种做法太超前了。 一位专家说：“这些国家缺乏成本估算和选择技术的经验。） ●UNIT 5 ●第一段翻译：（事实如此，我们孤独无依地生活着。据最近的统计，共有2,200万人独自生活在自己的住所里。 其中有些人喜欢这种生活，有些却不喜欢。有些离了婚，有些鳏寡无伴，也有些从未结过婚。 ●第二段翻译：（孤独或许是这里的一种民族弊病，我们羞于承认它，甚于其他任何罪恶。 而另一方面，故意选择独处，拒绝别人的陪伴而非为同伴所弃，却是美国式英雄的一个特点。 孤独的猎人或探险者去鹿群和狼群中冒险，征服广袤的荒野时，并不需要有人陪伴。 梭罗独居在湖畔的小屋，有意疏离了城市生活。现在，这成了你的个性。 独处的灵感是诗人和哲学家最有用的东西。） ●108页第十三段翻译：（科学调查表明，独居的人会对着自己、对着宠物、对着电视机唠叨不休。 我们问猫儿今天该穿蓝色套装还是黄色裙装， 问鹦鹉今天晚餐该做牛排还是面条。 我们跟自己争论那个花样滑冰选手和这个滑雪运动员到底谁更了不起。 这没什么不妥，也对我们有好处，而且不像有些人那么令人尴尬：在超市付款处，排在前面的女人告诉收银员， 她的侄女梅利莎星期六可能会来看她。

Unit 1 无名英雄：职业父亲意味着什么？ 在我们的孪生女儿出生后的第一次“约会”时，我和丈夫一起去看了一部名为《玩具总动员》的电影。我们很喜欢这部片子，但随后我丈夫问道：“父亲在哪儿呢？”起初我还认为因为一个小小的失误而批评一部很吸引人的家庭影片似乎是太偏狭了。可后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。父亲不仅没有出现，他甚至没有被提到——尽管家中有婴儿，说明他不可能离开太长时间。影片给人的感觉是，父亲出现与否似乎是个极次要的细节，甚至不需要做任何解释。 新闻媒体倾向于把父亲的边缘化，这只是一个例子，它反映了在美国发生的巨大的社会变化。大卫?布兰肯霍恩在《无父之国》一书中将这种倾向称之为“无需父亲”观念。 职业母亲（我想这应是与无职业母亲相对而言的）奋斗的故事从媒体上无尽无休地轰击着我们。与此同时，媒体上绝大多数有关父亲的故事又集中表现暴力的丈夫或没出息的父亲。看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候（我怀疑这一说法的可靠性，因为“家务”的定义中很少包括打扫屋顶的雨水沟、给汽车换机油或其它一些典型地由男人们做的事），或者是在他们去世的时候。当布兰肯霍恩先生就“顾家的好男人”一词的词义对父亲们进行调查时，许多父亲都回答这一词语只有在葬礼上听到。 这种“无需父亲”综合症的一个例外是家庭全职父亲所受到的媒体的赞扬。我并非暗指这些家庭全职父亲作出的承诺不值得人们的支持，我只是想指出在实际生效的双重标准：家庭全职父亲受到人们的赞扬，而家庭全职母亲和养家活口的父亲，所得到文化上的认同却很少，甚至完全得不到。 我们用来讨论父亲角色（即没出息的父亲）的话语本身就显示出人们对大多数男人默默无闻而自豪地履行对家庭承担的责任缺乏赏识。我们几乎从来没听到“职业父亲”这一说法，在人们呼吁应该考虑给予工作者在工作地点上更大的灵活性时，很少有人认为这种呼吁不但适用于女子，同样也适应于男子。我们这个社会表现出似乎家庭职责对父亲来说并不象对母亲那么重要——似乎事业上的满足就是男人生活的全部。 更让人感到侮辱的是最近媒体的这种倾向，即把家庭主妇看成是一种“地位的象征” ——就像一辆名贵的汽车，只有据说少数男人才享受得起这种奢侈与豪华。这暗示家里有家庭主妇的男人比那些妻子在外工作的男人日子过得更舒适，因为他们拥有全职管家这种“奢侈品”。然而，实际上作为家庭惟一挣钱者的男人要承受很多压力。当他们的那份工作是家庭收入的惟一来源的时候，失业，或者甚至只不过是受到失业的威胁，对他们来说显然构成更大的困难。同样，家庭惟一的工资收入者在想辞去不太满意的工作时，其灵活程度也要小一些，因为这种工作变换会使他们失去收入。此外，为了给家庭挣更多的钱，许多丈夫超时工作或兼做第二职业。对于这些男人来说，正是这份工作所支撑的家庭，使得他们值得付出努力。很多男人相信母亲呆在家里对小孩十分重要，这种信念使得他们乐意地担起家里惟一挣钱人的担子。 目前，研究者们普遍认为家庭中没有父亲会对小孩——因此对整个社会——带来严重的问题。然而，我们这个社会并没有把“普通”父亲作为正面角色为未来的父亲树立榜样，相反地，却常常持放弃态度，认为传统的父道从最好的方面说是已经过时，从最坏的方面讲就是危险的反动。这使得许多男人对他们作为父亲的角色的价值提出疑问。 作为一个社会，我们需要认识到对于孩子来说，父亲是与母亲同等重要的，不仅仅在经济支

One Writer's Beginnings 1 I learned from the age of two or three that any room in our house, at any time of day, was there to read in, or to be read to. My mother read to me. She'd read to me in the big bedroom in the mornings, when we were in her rocker together, which ticked in rhythm as we rocked, as though we had a cricket accompanying the story. She'd read to me in the dining room on winter afternoons in front of the coal fire, with our cuckoo clock ending the story with "Cuckoo", and at night when I'd got in my own bed. I must have given her no peace. Sometimes she read to me in the kitchen while she sat churning, and the churning sobbed along with any story. It was my ambition to have her read to me while I churned; once she granted my wish, but she read off my story before I brought her butter. She was an expressive reader. When she was reading "Puss in Boots," for instance, it was impossible not to know that she distrusted all cats. 作家起步时 我从两三岁起就知道，家中随便在哪个房间里，白天无论在什么时间，都可以念书或听 人念书。母亲念书给我听。上午她都在那间大卧室里给我念，两人一起坐在她那把摇椅里， 我们摇晃时，椅子发出有节奏的滴答声，好像有只唧唧鸣叫的蟋蟀在伴着读故事。冬 日午后，她常在餐厅里烧着煤炭的炉火前给我念，布谷鸟自鸣钟发出“咕咕”声时，故事便结束了；晚上我在自己床上睡下后她也给我念。想必我是不让她有一刻清静。有时她在厨 房里一边坐着搅制黄油一边给我念，故事情节就随着搅制黄油发出的抽抽搭搭的声响不断展开。我的奢望是她念我来搅拌；有一次她满足了我的愿望，可是我要听的故事她念完了，她 要的黄油我却还没弄好。她念起故事来富有表情。比如，她念《穿靴子的猫》时，你就没法 不相信她对猫一概怀疑。 2 It had been startling and disappointing to me to find out that story books had been written by people, that books were not natural wonders, coming up of themselves like grass. Yet regardless of where they came from, I cannot remember a time when I was not in love with them — with the books themselves, cover and binding and the paper they were printed on, with their smell and their weight and with their possession in my arms, captured and carried off to myself. Still illiterate, I was ready for them, committed to all the reading I could give them. 当我得知故事书原来是人写出来的，书本原来不是什么大自然的奇迹，不像草那样自生 自长时，真是又震惊又失望。不过，姑且不论书本从何而来，我不记得自己有什么时候 不爱书——书本本身、封面、装订、印着文字的书页，还有油墨味、那种沉甸甸的感觉， 以及把书抱在怀里时那种将我征服、令我陶醉的感觉。还没识字，我就想读书了，一心想 读所有的书。

课文翻译 艺术家追求成名，如同狗自逐其尾，一旦追到手，除了继续追逐不知还能做些什么。 成功之残酷正在于它常常让那些追逐成功者自寻毁灭。 对一名正努力追求成功并刚刚崭露头角的艺术家，其亲朋常常会建议“正经的饭碗不能丢！”他们的担心不无道理。 追求出人头地，最乐观地说也困难重重，许多人到最后即使不是穷困潦倒，也是几近精神崩溃。 尽管如此，希望赢得追星族追捧和同行赞扬之类的不太纯洁的动机却在激励着他们向前。享受成功的无上光荣，这种诱惑不是能轻易抵挡的。 成名者之所以成名，大多是因为发挥了自己在歌唱、舞蹈、绘画或写作等方面的特长，并能形成自己的风格。 为了能迅速走红，代理人会极力吹捧他们这种风格。他们青云直上的过程让人看不清楚。 他们究竟是怎么成功的，大多数人也都说不上来。 尽管如此，艺术家仍然不能闲下来。 若表演者、画家或作家感到无聊，他们的作品就难以继续保持以前的吸引力，也就难以保持公众的注意力。 公众的热情消磨以后，就会去追捧下一个走红的人。 有些艺术家为了不落伍，会对他们的写作、跳舞或唱歌的风格稍加变动，但这将冒极大的失宠的危险。 公众对于他们藉以成名的艺术风格以外的任何形式都将不屑一顾。 知名作家的文风一眼就能看出来，如田纳西·威廉斯的戏剧、欧内斯特·海明威的情节安排、罗伯特·弗罗斯特或T.S.艾略特的诗歌等。 同样，像莫奈、雷诺阿、达利这样的画家，希区柯克、费里尼、斯皮尔伯格、陈凯歌或张艺谋这样的电影制作人也是如此。 他们鲜明独特的艺术风格标志着与别人不同的艺术形式上的重大变革，这让他们名利双收，但也让他们付出了代价，那就是失去了用其他风格或形式表现自我的自由。 名气这盏聚光灯可比热带丛林还要炙热。骗局很快会被揭穿，过多的关注带来的压力会让大多数人难以承受。 它让你失去自我。你必须是公众认可的那个你，而不是真实的你或是可能的你。 艺人，就像政客一样，必须常常说些违心或连自己都不完全相信的话来取悦听众。 一滴名气之水有可能玷污人的心灵这一整口井，因此一个艺术家若能保持真我，会格外让人惊叹。

Unit 1 PartⅡTextAOne Writer's Beginnings 作家起步时 我从两三岁起就知道，家中随便在哪个房间里，白天无论在什么时间，都可以念书或听人念书。母亲念书给我听。上午她都在那间大卧室里给我念，两人一起坐在她那把摇椅里，我们摇晃时，椅子发出有节奏的滴答声，好像有只唧唧鸣叫的蟋蟀在伴着读故事。 冬日午后，她常在餐厅里烧着煤炭的炉火前给我念，布谷鸟自鸣钟发出“咕咕”声时，故事便结束了；晚上我在自己床上睡下后她也给我念。想必我是不让她有一刻清静。有时她在厨房里一边坐着搅制黄油一边给我念，故事情节就随着搅制黄油发出的抽抽搭搭的声响不断展开。我的奢望是她念我来搅拌；有一次她满足了我的愿望，可是我要听的故事她念完了，她要的黄油我却还没弄好。她念起故事来富有表情。比如，她念《穿靴子的猫》时，你就没法不相信她对猫一概怀疑。 当我得知故事书原来是人写出来的，书本原来不是什么大自然的奇迹，不像草那样自生自长时，真是又震惊又失望。不过，姑且不论书本从何而来，我不记得自己有什么时候不爱书——书本本身、封面、装订、印着文字的书页，还有油墨味、那种沉甸甸的感觉，以及把书抱在怀里时那种将我征服、令我陶醉的感觉。还没识字，我就想读书了，一心想读所有的书。 我的父母都不是来自那种买得起许多书的家庭。然而，虽然买书准得花去他不少薪金，作为一家成立不久的保险公司最年轻的职员，父亲一直在精心挑选、不断订购他和母亲认为儿童成长应读的书。他们购书首先是为了我们的前程。 除了客厅里有一向被称作“图书室”的书橱，餐厅的窗子下还有几张摆放百科全书的桌子和一个字典架。这里有伴随我们在餐桌旁争论着长大的《韦氏大词典》、《哥伦比亚百科全书》、《康普顿插图百科全书》、《林肯资料文库》，以及后来的《知识库》。“图书馆”书橱里的书没过多久我就能读了——我的确读了，全都读了，按着顺序，一排接着一排读，从最上面的书架一直读到

Unit 1 If you ask me, taking a second major isn’t good for every undergraduate. In my freshman year as an English major, I took economics as my minor. By all odds, I was the most hard-working student in my class. But try as I might to meet the requirements of the two different subjects, I still couldn’t do well enough to pass all the exams. Given that the study of economics required a good command of mathematics, I had to spend so much time on math that I neglected my English. Failing English Literature and Macroeconomics in the second term sounded the alarm for me. This was the first time I did not pass a course in my life, which had greatly sapped my confidence. Although I was not a man who would easily bow to fate, as the summer bread came to a close, I decided to give up economics for fear that I would fail both subjects. Now that I had only one subject to attend to, everything seemed to be on the right track again. Unit 2 It was not until after he had graduated from university and started to work that Zhang Lei became aware of the pleasure of reading. reflecting on his undergraduate studies, he lamented that he, unlike some of his classmates who had immersed themselves in various interesting books they were able to lay hands on from the library or bookshops, had only read textbooks, none of which was really worthwhile, or could be read in one sitting. He was deprived of the privilege of gaining access to the writers’ fantastic worlds through the windows their books have opened, so to speak. Now he has become an avid and omnivorous reader. It is as if he wants to read all those marvelous books he hadn’t had a chance to read in his university days. By now, in his spare time, he had read several hundreds of books, including novels, biographies and travel notes. He realizes that books can not only reveal to him the vista of a hopeful future and help him withstand stresses and strains, they can also help him clear up some misconceptions and discover the true meaning of life. Unit 3 What you wear seems to dictate your behavior. Take primary school and high school students for example. One of the hard and fast rules they have to observe is that they must wear uniforms at school. There is no doubt that school uniforms would not have achieved their currency without a symbolic correlation between the uniformity of clothes and the students’ conformity to some common code of conduct. However, after years of school life, there is always a backlash secretly nursed in the students’ mind against the ubiquitous uniform which suppresses the expression of individuality. To compensate for this loss, students usually wear more casual and popular clothes on weekends. It is not until they start university, however, that they can really enjoy the freedom of dress, an anarchy associated with the cultivation of creativity and the encouragement of free expression of ideas and talents. But this situation won’t obtain for long. After a relatively short time of liberty, they may experience again the revived pressure of dress code as soon as they become professions. Unit 4 When it comes to the effects of the current economic downturn, the decrease of student activities is a good case in point. To enliven campus life, the university is always willing to carve out some money for activities organized by student clubs and societies, but such sponsorships have been pared down this year because of huge budget cut. Apparently, student organizations need to weather their own financial crisis if they want to recover from their current state of inactiveness. Some suggest enrolling more club members, on the ground that the consequent increase of membership fees may help them get out of the difficulty.
