Unit 2

Translation

Put the following paragraphs into Chinese.

When a woman is stressed she instinctively feels a need to talk about her feelings and all the possible problems that are associated with her feelings. When she begins talking she does not prioritize the significance of any problem. If she is upset, then she is upset about it all, (no mater it is) big and small. She is not immediately concerned with finding solutions to her problems but rather seeks relief by expressing herself and being understood. By randomly talking about her problems, she becomes less upset.

参考译文：女人有压力时，会直觉地需要找人谈自己的感受以及所有可能与之相关的问题。她一旦开始谈论，就不会顾虑到问题的优先顺序。而她一难过，不论大大小小的事都让她沮丧不已。她并不急于马上寻求解答，而宁可通过倾诉自我，获得理解来取得纾解。通过随意倾诉自己的问题，她会感觉好受一点。

Part II Translation

Put the following paragraphs into Chinese.

Paris is enrolled in a "dual immersion" program at the Glenwood Elementary School here in which the pupils-half native Chinese, half English speakers—do their lessons in two languages. The program is indicative of one of the fastest-growing curriculum trends in U.S. schools: the study of Chinese.

"Americans are used to hearing about people in other countries learning English. Now we're seeing the opposite trend," said Michael Levine, executive director of the Asia Society, which promotes international content in U.S. schools. "Parents and students are deciding that, since more people speak Mandarin than any other language, it might be a useful skill to have."

帕里斯参加了格兰乌德小学的“双语浸入式”项目，这个项目里的学生有一半的母语是汉语，有一半是英语，他们用两种语言上课。从这个项目可以看出美国学校里发展最迅速的一门课程：汉语学习。

“美国人习惯听到西他国家的人学习英语，现在我们看到了相反的趋势。”亚洲协会的执行会长迈克尔. 莱温说，该组织在美国学校里推行国际教学内容，“父母和学生们认为既然说汉语的人比任何其它语言多，那掌握汉语可能是一项有用的技能。”

Unit 4

Translation

Put the following paragraphs into Chinese.

This was a few days after the "Nightline" interview. The sky was (raining#) rainy and dark, and Morrie was beneath a blanket. I sat at the far end of his chair, holding his bare feet. They were callused and curled, and his toenails were yellow. I had a small jar of lotion, and I squeezed some into my hands and began to massage his ankles.

It was another of the things I had watched his helpers do for months, and now, in an attempt to hold on to what I could of him, I had volunteered to do it myself. The disease had left Morrie without the ability even to wiggle his toes, yet he could still feel pain, and massages helped relieve it. Also, of course, Morrie liked being held and touched. And at this point, anything I could do to make him happy, I was going to do.

unit 5

Translation

Put the following paragraphs into Chinese.

Every generation seems to produce a few marquee academics who advance the thinking on black culture. Roland G. Fryer Jr., the young black economist who analyzed the "acting white"(模仿) phenomenon and the black-white test score gap, may be among the next (topic).

In addition to economic and social disparity between blacks and whites, Fryer had become intrigued by the virtual segregation of culture. Blacks and whites watch different television shows. They smoke different cigarettes. And black parents give their children names that are starkly different from white children's.

几乎每一代都会产生一些能够推动黑人文化研究的学者。黑人经济学家小罗兰德·弗立叶就是这些学者当中的一位。正像我们前面谈到的那样，他曾经分析过“模仿白人行为”和“黑人与白人之间的成绩差异”问题。

除了黑人和白人之间的经济以及社会地位上的差距之外，弗立叶还对二者之间文化上的隔阂进行了研究。黑人和白人喜欢看不同的电视节目。他们抽不同的香烟。而且黑人父母也往往会给孩子取一些截然不同于白人的名字。
