Noam Chomsky過(guò)誠(chéng)實(shí)正直的生活是每一個(gè)正派人的責(zé)任。 諾姆喬姆斯基Reading (P 2-3) After twenty years 二十年后The policeman on the beat walked along the street as he always did. It was barely ten oclock

2、at night. When he had walked about halfway around a certain block, the policeman suddenly slowed down. In the doorway of a store stood a man, with an unlit cigar in his mouth. As the policeman walked up to him the man spoke up quickly. 巡邏的警察像往常一樣沿著街道走著。還不到晚上十點(diǎn)。當(dāng)他走過(guò)一個(gè)街區(qū)大約一半的時(shí)候，警察突然放慢了速度。在一家商店的門口站著一個(gè)男

3、人，嘴里叼著一支未點(diǎn)燃的雪茄。當(dāng)警察走近他時(shí)，那人很快地大聲說(shuō)起了話?！癐ts all right, officer, ” he said. “Im just waiting for a friend. Its an appointment made twenty years ago. There used to be a restaurant where this store standsBigJoe Bradys restaurant. ”“沒(méi)事的，警官，”他說(shuō)。“我只是在等一個(gè)朋友。這是一個(gè)二十年前做的約定。這家商店所在的地方以前有一家餐館大喬布雷迪餐館?！薄癐t was here un

The light showed a pale face, with keen eyes, a square jaw and a little white scar near his right eyebrow. His scarfpin was a large diamond, oddly set.

5、 站在門口的人劃了一根火柴，點(diǎn)燃了雪茄。燈光顯得蒼白他的臉，一雙敏銳的眼睛，一個(gè)方下巴，右眉毛附近有一條白色的小傷疤。他的領(lǐng)巾別針是一顆大鉆石，鑲嵌得很奇怪?！癟wenty years ago tonight, said the man, “I dined here with Jimmy Wells, my best friend.

Havent you heard from your friend since you le

But I know Jimmy will meet me here if hes alive, for he always was the truest and most reliable fellow in the world. Hell never forget. I came a thousand miles to stand in this d

11、ty minutes later, a tall man in a long overcoat, with collar turned up to his ears, hurried toward him. 這個(gè)人從千里之外趕來(lái)，是為了和年輕時(shí)的朋友約會(huì)，他一邊抽著雪茄，一邊等待著。大約二十分鐘后，一個(gè)身穿長(zhǎng)大衣、衣領(lǐng)翹到耳朵的高個(gè)子男人匆匆向他走來(lái)?！癐s that you, Bob?” he asked, doubtfully. “是你嗎，鮑勃?”他疑惑地問(wèn)?！癐s that you, Jimmy Wells?” shouted the man in the doorway. “是你嗎，吉

How has the West treated you, old man?”“上帝保佑我的心!新來(lái)的叫道?！昂? 好, 好!二十年是一段很長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間!老伙計(jì)，西部對(duì)你怎么樣?”“It has given me everything I asked it for. Youve changed lots, Jimmy.

The man from the West was beginning

14、 to outline the history of his career. At the corner stood a drugstore, brilliant with electric lights. Each of them turned to stare at the others face. The man from the West stopped suddenly and released his arm. 那兩個(gè)人手挽著手走在街上。這個(gè)從西部來(lái)的人開(kāi)始概述他的職業(yè)生涯。街角有一家藥店，燈火通明。他們每個(gè)人都轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身來(lái)盯著對(duì)方的臉。那個(gè)從西部來(lái)的人突然停下來(lái)，松開(kāi)了他的手臂?！癆

15、s I suspected, youre not Jimmy Wells,” he said, impatiently with anger. “Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change the shape of a mans nose. ”“正如我所懷疑的，你不是吉米威爾斯，”他憤怒地說(shuō)?！岸晔呛荛L(zhǎng)的一段時(shí)間，但還不足以改變一個(gè)人鼻子的形狀。”“It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one,” said the tall man, taking charge of

Before we go to the station, heres a note for you. Its from Patrolman Wells. ”“它有時(shí)會(huì)把一個(gè)好人變成一個(gè)壞人，”控制局面的高個(gè)子說(shuō)。“你已經(jīng)被捕十分鐘了，狡猾的鮑勃。芝

19、Happy birthday, Anne, ” said my grandma, handing me a brightly wrapped parcel with a big red bow. It was my birthday dinner, a special treat, and the whole family were theremy parents, grandma, grandad, aunt, uncle and nephew. “生日快樂(lè)，安妮，”奶奶說(shuō)著遞給我一個(gè)包裝得很鮮艷的包裹，上面有一個(gè)大大的紅色蝴蝶結(jié)。這是我的生日晚餐，一個(gè)特別的款待，而且所有的家人都在那里我的

20、父母，奶奶，爺爺，阿姨，叔叔和侄子。“Thanks, Granny!” I said, smiling. I tore the parcel open. Inside was something very bright, very pink. I held it up. It was the ugliest dress I had ever seen. “謝謝奶奶!”我笑著說(shuō)。我把包裹撕開(kāi)了。里面有個(gè)非常亮，非常粉紅的東西。我舉起它。這是我見(jiàn)過(guò)的最丑的衣服?！癐 hope you like it, said Grandma. “You look so pretty in pink. I thi

22、是美麗的。非常感謝你。”Grandma smiled back happily at me, with deep wrinkles around her eyes. Well. I couldnt tell her the truth. Could I?奶奶開(kāi)心地對(duì)我笑了笑，她的眼睛周圍有深深的皺紋。嗯。我不能告訴她真相。我可以嗎?A white lie that hurt me 一個(gè)傷害我的善意的謊言When I gave the dress to Anne for her birthday, I saw the excitement in her eyes as she tore off

23、the wrapping paper. She paused briefly when she first saw the dress. Then her beautiful face smiled lovingly at me. She told me it was a beautiful dress. I know that the old and the young do not always share the same tastes and I was happy that she liked it. All the hours of sewing were worth it whe

24、n I saw the look of joy on her face. 當(dāng)我把裙子送給安妮作為生日禮物時(shí)，我看到她撕掉包裝紙時(shí)眼中的興奮。她第一次看到那件衣服時(shí)，停頓了一下。然后，她美麗的臉龐充滿愛(ài)意地對(duì)我笑了笑。她告訴我那是條漂亮的裙子。我知道老年人和年輕人的口味并不總是相同的，我很高興她喜歡它。當(dāng)我看到她臉上喜悅的表情時(shí)，所有的縫紉時(shí)間都是值得的。It was a few days later that I learnt the truth. I was passing Annes bedroom when I heard her talking on the phone. “My gr

25、andma gave me this very pink dress, ” she said. “I really appreciate it but I dont think Ill ever be wearing it. I mean, who wears pink these days?” I stood there in awkward silence. Then I walked away, pretending not to have heard anything. However, I felt cheated and it really depressed me. 幾天后我才知

26、道真相。我路過(guò)安妮的臥室時(shí)，聽(tīng)到她在講電話?！拔夷棠探o了我這件粉紅色的裙子，”她說(shuō)?！拔艺娴暮芨屑に蚁胛矣肋h(yuǎn)不會(huì)穿它。我的意思是，現(xiàn)在誰(shuí)會(huì)穿粉紅色的衣服?”我站在那里，尷尬地沉默著。然后我走開(kāi)了，假裝什么也沒(méi)聽(tīng)到。然而，我感覺(jué)被欺騙了，這真的讓我很沮喪。Extended reading (P 11-12)Taking responsibility承擔(dān)責(zé)任Honoured guests, teachers and students, it is my pleasure and privilege to welcome you here today and present my though

27、ts on this special occasion. 尊敬的來(lái)賓、老師、同學(xué)們，我很高興和榮幸歡迎你們今天來(lái)到這里，并在這個(gè)特殊的場(chǎng)合表達(dá)我的想法。Students, the time has arrived for you to fully accept your passage into adulthood. I have seen you grow from nervous Senior 1 students into confident young adults, who sit before me today, ready to embrace the next phase of

28、 your lives. You must be both excited and anxious about the new experiences that are in store for you. Dont worry, for you are all responsible young people, well prepared and well equipped to successfully manage the challenges of the years ahead. 學(xué)生們，是時(shí)候讓你們完全接受自己的成年了。我看到你們從緊張的高一學(xué)生成長(zhǎng)為自信的年輕人，今天坐在我面前，準(zhǔn)

29、備迎接人生的下一個(gè)階段。你一定對(duì)即將到來(lái)的新體驗(yàn)既興奮又焦慮。不要擔(dān)心，因?yàn)槟銈兌际秦?fù)責(zé)任的年輕人，準(zhǔn)備好了，準(zhǔn)備好了，可以成功地應(yīng)對(duì)未來(lái)的挑戰(zhàn)。At school, you have gradually understood the importance of a well-developed sense of responsibility. You accept that you are responsible for your successes and your failures. Hopefully, you have learnt to treat responsibility n

30、ot as a weight that burdens you, but rather as a foundation which will support your future development. A ship without an anchor is at the mercy of the waves and winds; likewise, a person who has no sense of responsibility is at the mercy of their own careless and thoughtless behaviour. 在學(xué)校里，你們逐漸明白了

31、責(zé)任感的重要性。你接受你的成功和失敗是你的責(zé)任。希望你已經(jīng)學(xué)會(huì)了不要把責(zé)任當(dāng)作負(fù)擔(dān)，而是當(dāng)作支撐你未來(lái)發(fā)展的基礎(chǔ)。沒(méi)有錨的船，在風(fēng)浪的擺布下航行;同樣地，一個(gè)沒(méi)有責(zé)任感的人會(huì)被自己的粗心和輕率的行為所支配。As students, you must take your studies seriously and accept responsibility for your own learning. This means meeting deadlines for your schoolwork, following your teachers guidance, and of course,

32、 always aiming for academic excellence. However, your responsibilities go far beyond your studies. As you go through your daily life, you will encounter many difficult situations where things may go wrong. Instead of being quick to blame others, analyse the problem, and if it is indeed your own faul

33、t, be ready to admit your mistake and then correct it. This way, you practise the virtue of courage. Always give your best in whatever you set out to do, however difficult that might be. This way, you practise the virtue of determination. Be honest by saying what you mean and by meaning what you say

34、. This way, you practise the virtue of integrity. Taking responsibility in all aspects of your everyday life, therefore, will help build a strong character. 作為學(xué)生，你必須認(rèn)真學(xué)習(xí)，對(duì)自己的學(xué)習(xí)負(fù)責(zé)。這意味著要在截止日期前完成學(xué)業(yè)，聽(tīng)從老師的指導(dǎo)，當(dāng)然，還要始終追求學(xué)術(shù)卓越。然而，你的責(zé)任遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超出你的學(xué)習(xí)。在你的日常生活中，你會(huì)遇到許多困難的情況，事情可能會(huì)出錯(cuò)。不要?jiǎng)硬粍?dòng)就指責(zé)別人，要分析問(wèn)題，如果確實(shí)是你自己的錯(cuò)，要準(zhǔn)備好承認(rèn)錯(cuò)誤，然

35、后改正。這樣，你就鍛煉了勇氣的美德。無(wú)論你打算做什么，無(wú)論多么困難，都要全力以赴。這樣，你就練習(xí)了決心的美德。誠(chéng)實(shí)地說(shuō)出你的意思，并認(rèn)真地表達(dá)你所說(shuō)的。這樣，你就實(shí)踐了正直的美德。因此，在你日常生活的各個(gè)方面承擔(dān)責(zé)任，將有助于建立一個(gè)堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的性格。Apart from personal development, assuming responsibility for your actions is also important for the betterment of society. Society is an organic whole, and as social beings, we

36、have a responsibility to make a contribution. You may have heard the story of a small boy who tried to save starfish left on the beach after a storm, by throwing them back into the sea. Passers-by told him that he was wasting his time, for he could not possibly save them all. However, the boy was no

37、t discouraged, believing that he could make a difference to the ones that he saved. As a result, the passers-by felt inspired and joined him in saving the starfish. Similarly, the little things you do can make a difference! For example, picking up garbage around your neighbourhood contributes to a c

38、leaner environment. Reporting a speeding car helps ensure road safety. Being energy-efficient leads to savings of our precious natural resources. Doing volunteer work at a local nursing home brings love and warmth to the elderly. Just like the “starfish boy”, you may even inspire people around you t

39、o do the same, which is an added bonus. Working together, we have the power to gradually but continuously advance our society. 除了個(gè)人發(fā)展，對(duì)自己的行為負(fù)責(zé)對(duì)社會(huì)的改善也很重要。社會(huì)是一個(gè)有機(jī)整體，作為社會(huì)人，我們有責(zé)任做出貢獻(xiàn)。你可能聽(tīng)過(guò)一個(gè)小男孩的故事，他試圖拯救暴風(fēng)雨后留在海灘上的海星，他把它們?nèi)踊卮蠛?。過(guò)路的人對(duì)他說(shuō)，他是在浪費(fèi)時(shí)間，因?yàn)樗豢赡馨阉麄兌季瘸鰜?lái)。然而，男孩并不氣餒，他相信自己可以改變他所拯救的那些人。結(jié)果，路過(guò)的人受到鼓舞，和他一起拯救海星。同

40、樣，你所做的每一件小事都能帶來(lái)不同!例如，在你周圍撿垃圾有助于一個(gè)更清潔的環(huán)境。報(bào)告超速車輛有助于確保道路安全。節(jié)能可以節(jié)省我們寶貴的自然資源。在當(dāng)?shù)氐酿B(yǎng)老院做義工給老人帶來(lái)了愛(ài)和溫暖。就像“海星男孩”，你甚至可以激勵(lì)你周圍的人也這樣做，這是一個(gè)額外的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。只要我們共同努力，我們就有能力逐步而持續(xù)地推進(jìn)我們的社會(huì)。So, dear students, take your first step into the adult world by accepting your responsibilities, so that adulthood will be an enjoyable and re

41、warding experience for both you and those around you. Sometimes, responsibilities may weigh heavily on you. However, just as the Chinese saying goes, “Jade is good-for-nothing if not carved. ” A man cannot be perfected without trials. Sow the seeds of success today and your harvest will be great tom

42、orrow. I wish you every success in your adult life!所以，親愛(ài)的學(xué)生們，通過(guò)接受你們的責(zé)任，邁出你進(jìn)入成人世界的第一步，這樣，成年對(duì)你和你周圍的人來(lái)說(shuō)都將是一段愉快而有益的經(jīng)歷。有時(shí)候，責(zé)任可能會(huì)壓在你身上。然而，正如中國(guó)諺語(yǔ)所說(shuō):“玉不琢，不成器。”沒(méi)有經(jīng)受考驗(yàn)的人是不可能完美的。今天播下成功的種子，明天就會(huì)收獲豐碩的成果。祝你在你的成年生活中成功!UNIT 2 Understanding each other We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much

43、 as we speak.Epictetus我們只有兩只耳朵和一張嘴巴，所以我們可以聽(tīng)到的是我們所說(shuō)的兩倍。 愛(ài)比克泰德Reading (P16-17)Effective communication有效溝通If you heard someone shout “Hey you!” from across the room, how would you react? Just these two words can carry a lot of information. They could be interpreted as a welcoming greeting from a close

44、friend, especially if accompanied by a gentle smile. When spoken by a stranger, they can function as a means of attracting your attention. Much of what we communicate is dependent not only on the words we use, but also on how we use them. So. lets look a little deeper into the topic of communication

45、.如果你聽(tīng)到有人從房間的另一頭喊 “嘿,你!”,你會(huì)作何反應(yīng)?僅僅這兩個(gè)詞 就可以承載很多信息。它們(這兩個(gè)詞) 可以解讀成來(lái)自親密朋友的熱情問(wèn)候,特別 是如果伴隨著親切的笑容。當(dāng)陌生人這樣 說(shuō)話時(shí),它們可以作為吸引你注意的一種方 式。我們交流的大部分內(nèi)容不僅取決于我 們使用的詞語(yǔ),還取決于我們?nèi)绾问褂盟?們。那么,咱們更深入地探討一下交流的話題吧。 Communication is the process of exchanging information between a sender and a receiver. The sender encodes a message and se

46、nds it face to face, or through video, telephone, mail or social media. This message is then received and decoded by the receiver. In response, the receiver sends an encoded message back, which is referred to as feedback, This feedback is decoded by the original sender and the entire cycle repeats i

47、tself until they have finished communicating. 溝通是發(fā)送者和接收者之間交換信息的過(guò)程。發(fā)送者對(duì)信息進(jìn)行編碼,然后面對(duì)面發(fā)通或通過(guò)視頻、電話、郵件或社交媒體發(fā)送,然后該消息被接收方接收并解碼,作為回應(yīng),接收者發(fā)回一組編碼的信息,這被稱為反饋。這個(gè)反饋信息被原始發(fā)送者解碼,然后整個(gè)循環(huán)重復(fù),直到他們完成通信。This communication process can be challenging but, with practice and patience, you can become a highly competent communicato

48、r. To accomplish this, you need to know with whom you are communicating. What is their age or position? What is their relationship with you? What expectations and cultural backgrounds do they have? Once you have obtained this information you can use it to determine how best to communicate with them.

49、 Depending on whether you are communicating with a stranger, friend, family member or co-worker, you will need to decide which communication channel best suits the situation. Furthermore, you will need to determine the appropriate style to use and how complex your choice of words should be. For exam

50、ple, if you are a business person negotiating with a large enterprise about a deal, you should do it face to face, using formal language in a straightforward manner. 這個(gè)溝通過(guò)程可能是具有挑戰(zhàn)性的,但是,通過(guò)練習(xí)和耐心,你可以成為一個(gè)非常稱職的溝通者。要做到這一點(diǎn),你需要知道你在和誰(shuí)交流,他們的年齡或職位是什么?他們和你的關(guān)系如何?他們有什么樣的期望和文化背景?一旦你獲得了此休息,你可以用它來(lái)決定如何最好地與他們溝通。根據(jù)你是與陌

51、生人、朋友、家人還是問(wèn)事溝通,你需要決定哪種溝通渠道最適合這類情況。此外,你還需要確定使用的方式適當(dāng),以及你的措辭應(yīng)該多復(fù)雜。例如,如果你是一個(gè)商人,正在與一家大企業(yè)洽談一筆交易,你應(yīng)該面對(duì)面地,用正式的語(yǔ)言,以直截了當(dāng)?shù)姆绞竭M(jìn)行溝通。Your body language is equally important, since it reveals a lot about your thoughts and attitudes. Make sure it clearly supports the message you want to deliver. A smile shows you ar

Additionally, you should not ignore the other persons body language, which will give you clues as to whether the conversation is going well or not. When you n

53、otice a change in the other persons body language. you should adjust how you are communicating accordingly. If someone looks at you with a confused expression, this could indicate that they have not completely understood your point. Then you will need to clarify your message before moving on. 你的肢體語(yǔ)言

Suppose you are discussing a project with your partner, who has just lost an important basketball game and is inactive. To engage him or her in the discussion a
