Unit 2 Mixed feelings

Active Reading 1 How empathy unfolds

I. Warming-up exercises

1. Look at the following pictures and describe the emotion shown in each picture.

2. Discuss the question: Do you sometimes try to hide your emotions? Why or why not?

3. Skim the text, and find out the definition of empathy and sympathy in the passage.

Empathy originates from a sort of physical imitation of the distress of another, which then evokes the same feelings in oneself. (Para. 3)

Sympathy is felt for the general plight of another with no sharing of what that other person is feeling.

4. Now decide whether the feelings or actions described below are a result of Sympathy(S)or Empathy (E).

sending a card to someone who is in hospital

feeling happy because your friend has won a scholarship to a prestigious university

trying to comfort someone who has had bad news

reacting physically when you see that someone is in pain

collecting money to help the victims of a natural disaster

crying at the end of a film

Summary: Sympathy= I can understand your pain. Empathy= I feel your pain.

Motor mimicry fades from toddlers’ repertoire …

?Young children imitate the actions of those in pain or distress, apparently as a way to feel and understand it. This imitation (mimicry) of others’ actions gradually becomes less.

小孩渐渐不再有运动神经模仿行为……

At this point in their development toddlers begin to diverge from one another in their overall sensitivity to other people’s emotional upsets, with some, like Jenny, keenly aware and others

tuning out.

?At around the age of two and a half some children become aware of other people’s emotions of sadness, worry or anger, while others stop paying attention to similar emotions: In this way the children start to develop in separate directions regarding how they are sensitive to others’ emotions.

在这个年龄，幼儿对于他人感情波动的总体敏感度开始有所不同，有些像珍妮一样，感同身受，有些则不予理睬。

IV Language Points

as if I were evidence of their benevolence.

Sandy’s friends seem “proud and honourable” because they are with a disabled person and their way of introducing her shows they are willing to be kind and generous (benevolent).

The disability, however, does not have to be part of the introduction and may not need to be mentioned at all. So this comment not only shares the deaf person’s experience but is a criticism of how some people (even her friends) treat Sandy in a stereotyped way as “deaf”.

If they do the ritual well enough ...

Again, this is really a critical comment. If they treat a deaf person as a normal person, they wouldn’t be shocked or need a “recovery smile”, just a normal friendly smile.

... while my regular friends beam on.

B eam is to smile widely to show a happy feeling. In this story, again the word indicates Sandy’s

friends know that others will say something to please Sandy and as if they have done something good to please her as well.

... fashion statements in various shapes and hues.

A fashion statement is something that you wear or own that is new, unusual or made by a famous designer and is meant to draw attention to you.

...a fixed circle of people, ...

circle: a group of people who know each other and meet regularly, or who have similar interests or jobs ……圈子，……界

e.g. 1. a circle of friends

2. He’s well-known in fashionable circles. 他在时装界是个知名人物。

... participate in the drama.

Her friends treated Sandy’s deafness as a drama, ie they made her deafness as being more serious or exciting than it really was (they “made a drama out of it”) and wanted their own role in the drama as benevolent helpers.

... as Drew the Bartender, Carol the Feminist, Greg the Guy Who Can knot a Cherry Stem with His Tongue and so on.

This is an informal style of naming people according to their profession, characteristics or attributes. Naming someone like this would be insulting to many people in most contexts, but here Sandy jokes that she hasn’t anything else that makes her stand out.

翻译：……把他们称为“酒吧侍者德鲁”、“女权主义者卡罗尔”、“能用舌头给樱桃梗打结的家伙格雷格”等等。

... the thing with Colin.

The thing with Colin refers to Sandy’s personal relationship with Colin.

……跟柯林之间的事儿。

We did the usual and exchanged numbers, and a week later Colin did the unthinkable and called.

Sandy’s experience is that this is usually the end of the matter because people don’t think about contacting her (because she’s deaf). However, Colin not only thought about doing so but actually did so (he “did the unthinkable”).

第一单元 大学已经不再特别了 有这么一种说法：“要是你能记得20 世纪60 年代的任何事情，你就没有真正经历过那段岁月。”对于在大麻烟雾中度过大学时光的那些人，这话可能是真的。但是，20 世纪60 年代有一件事人人都记得，那就是：上大学是你一生中最激动人心、最刺激的经历。20 世纪60 年代，加州的高校把本州变成了世界第七大经济实体。然而，加州大学的主校园伯克利分校也以学生示威、罢课以及激进的政治氛围而著名。1966 年，罗纳德·里根竞选加州州长，他问加州是否允许“一所伟大的大学被喧闹的、持不一意见的少数人征服。”自由派人士回答说，大学之所以伟大正是因为它们有能力容忍喧闹的、持不同意见的少数人。在欧洲的大学校园里，大学生以新的姿态和激情地投入到自由和正义的事业中去，大规模的社会主义或共产主义运动引发了他们与当权者之间日益升级的暴力冲突。许多抗议是针对越南战争的。可是在法国，巴黎大学的学生与工会联盟，发动了一场大罢工，最终导致了戴高乐总统辞职。 20 世纪60 年代大学生活的特点并不仅仅是激进的行动。不论在什么地方，上大学都意味着你初次品尝真正自由的滋味，初次品尝深更半夜在宿舍或学生活动室里讨论人生意义的滋味。你往往得上了大学才得以阅读你的第一本禁书，看你的第一部独立影人电影，或者找到和你一样痴迷吉米·亨德里克斯或伦尼·布鲁斯的志同道合者。那是一段难以想象的自由时光，你一生中最无拘无束的时光。 可如今那份激情哪儿去了？大学怎么了？现在，政治、社会和创造意识的觉醒似乎不是凭借大学的助力，而是冲破其阻力才发生的。当然，一点不假，高等教育仍然重要。例如，在英国，布莱尔首相几乎实现了到2010 年让50％的30 岁以下的人上大学的目标，（即使愤世嫉俗的人会说，这是要把他们排除在失业统计数据之外）。不过，大学教育已不再是全民重视的话题了。如今，大学被视为人们急于逃离的一种小城镇。有些人辍学，但大多数已经有些麻木，还是坚持混到毕业，因为离开学校实在是太费事了。 没有了20 世纪60 年代大学生发现的令人头脑发热的自由气氛，如今的大学生要严肃得多。英国文化促进会最近做了一项调查，研究外国留学生在决定上哪所大学时考虑的因素。这些因素从高到低依次是：课程质量、就业前景、学费负担、人身安全问题、生活方式，以及各种便利。大学已变成实现目的的手段，是在就业市场上增加就业几率的一个机会，上大学本身不再是目的，它给你提供一个机会，让你暂时想象一下：你能够改变世界。童年与大学之间的距离已缩小了，大学与现实世界之间的距离也缩小了。其中的一个原因可能是经济方面的。在一个没有保障的世界里，现在的许多孩子依赖父母资助的时间比以前的孩子更长。21世纪的学生大学毕业后根本无法自立门户，因为那太昂贵了。另一个可能的原因是通讯革命。儿子或女儿每学期往家里打一两回电话的日子一去不复返了。如今，大学生通过手机与父母保持着脐带式联系。至于寻找痴迷无名文学或音乐的同道好友嘛，没问题，我们有互联网和聊天室来帮助我们做到这一点。 “在那黎明时分活着是至福， 但年轻就等于身在天堂！” 华兹华斯的诗句说的可能是法国大革命，但是对于20 世纪60 年代的大学生而言，这样的诗句同样真实生动。可是为什么对于如今的大学生来说，它们怎么就不真实了呢？ Active reading (2) 后一切的一代 弗兰克·托马斯是普林斯顿大学二年级学生，主修文学理论专业。他希望当人权律师。我从没指望通过上文学理论课来了解我这一代人的特征，或了解美国大学是如何在变化的。这门

Unit 3 Language points 1 For lack of a better terminology, one might name these: (1) the sensuous plane, (2) the expressive plane, (3) the sheerly musical plane. (Para 1) The expression for lack of a better terminology is used to introduce rather inexact terms. It means since we don’t have any exact terms, I’m going to use these rather rough terms. The word sensuous suggests physical pleasure which relates to your physical senses rather than to your emotions and thoughts. A plane is a level of thought, development or existence. The word sheer is used to emphasize the amount or degree of something. The sheerly musical plane refers to the level of the musical material, melodies, rhythms, harmonies etc. The sheer pleasure (Para 2, Line 2) means great or pure pleasure. 2 The only advantage to be gained from mechanically splitting up the listening process into these hypothetical planes is … (Para 1) The word hypothetical means to be based on situations or events that seem possible rather than on actual ones. Here, the planes are not real, they are just part of a model for analysis and discussion. 3 One turns on the radio while doing something else and absent-mindedly bathes in the sound. A kind of brainless but attractive state of mind is engendered by the mere sound appeal of the music. (Para 2) To bathe means to swim or wash yourself in a bath, river or lake. To bathe in the sound means to immerse yourself in the sound, like in water. To engender means to cause a feeling or attitude to exist. The expression engendered by the mere sound appeal means to be created only by the appeal or attraction of the sound. 4 Music allows them to leave it ... dreaming because of and apropos of the music yet never quite listening to it. (Para 3) The expression apropos of means relating to; it is used to introduce something else about the subject you are talking about. The expression is derived from French, and the final -s is silent in pronunciation. Unit 3 Art for art’s sake

新标准大学英语综合教程2 课后参考翻译 第一单元课后翻译： 现在中国大学生参加志愿活动已成为常态。他们到社区为老年人服务，到山区助学，举办爱心捐赠活动，或到世博会（World Expo）或奥运会等重要国际活动担任志愿者。参加志愿活动有助于学生获取专业技能，丰富社会经验，提高道德水平。多数大学生都认为参与志愿服务是自己应尽的社会责任和义务，希望能做一些有意义的事情来回报社会，积极推动社会和谐发展。 Volunteering has now become the norm for college students in China. The volunteers may provide community services for senior citizens, support students in mountain areas in education, organize fundraising activities to help those in need, or work for major international projects such as the World Expo and the Olympic Games. Doing volunteer work is a useful way for students to enhance their professional skills and social experience as well as promoting their moral development. The majority of college students believe that it is their duty and obligation to participate in volunteer activities. They hope that they can do something meaningful and promote the development of social harmony. 第二单元课后翻译： “不以物喜，不以己悲”出自北宋文学家范仲淹的名著《岳阳楼记》，意思是凡事都要以一颗平常心看待，不因外部事物的好坏和自己的得失而或喜或悲。它是一种思想境界，体现了中国的传统道家思想，教导人们追求一种淡然(detached) 平静的心态。在物质文明高度发达的今天，保持这样的心态仍显得十分重要。当你拥有了这种心境，生活就会多一些阳光，多一些快乐。 Be not pleased by external gains, nor saddened by personal losses is a statement from the essay Remarks of Yueyang Tower by Fan Zhongyan, a writer of the Northern Song Dynasty. The statement means one should look at and accept things as they are, and remain unbothered by external matters or personal gains or losses. It is a mental outlook that reflects the traditional Taoist ideas of China, instructing people to become calm and detached. Even today, when we have a highly developed material civilization, keeping such a state of mind is still important. When you possess such a state of mind, you will be able to live a brighter and more joyous life. 第三单元课后翻译：

新标准大学英语3 UNIT1-Catching Crabs原文 译文.

Catching Crabs 1 In the fall of our final year, our mood changed. the relaxed atmosphere of the preceding summer semester, the impromptu ball games, the boating on the Charles River, the late-night parties had disappeared, and we all started to get our heads down, studying late, and attendance at classes rose steeply again. We all sensed we were coming to the end of our stay here, that we would never get a chance like this again, and we became determined not to waste it. Most important of course were the final exams in April and May in the following year. No one wanted the humiliation of finishing last in class, so the peer group pressure to work hard was strong. Libraries which were once empty after five o'clock in the afternoon were standing room only until the early hours of the morning, and guys wore the bags under their eyes and their pale, sleepy faces with pride, like medals proving their diligence. 大学最后一年的秋天，我们的心情变了。刚刚过去的夏季学期的轻松氛围、即兴球赛、查尔斯河上的泛舟以及深夜晚会都不见了踪影，我们开始埋头学习，苦读到深夜，课堂出勤率再次急剧上升。我们都觉得在校时间不多了，以后再也不会有这样的学习机会了，所以都下定决心不再虚度光阴。当然，下一年四五月份的期末考试最为重要。我们谁都不想考全班倒数第一，那太丢人了，因此同学们之间的竞争压力特别大。以前每天下午五点以后，图书馆就空无一人了，现在却要等到天快亮时才会有空座，小伙子们熬夜熬出了眼袋，他们脸色苍白，睡眼惺忪，却很自豪，好像这些都是表彰他们勤奋好学的奖章。 2 But there was something else. At the back of everyone's mind was what we would do next, when we left university in a few months' time. It wasn't always the high flyers with the top grades who knew what they were going to do. Quite often it was the quieter, less impressive students who had the next stages of their life mapped out. One had landed a job in his brother's advertising firm in Madison Avenue, another had got a script under provisional acceptance in Hollywood.The most ambitious student among us was going to work as a party activist at a local level. We all saw him ending up in the Senate or in Congress one day. But most people were either looking to continue their studies, or to make a living with a white-collar job in a bank, local government, or anything which would pay them enough to have a comfortable time in their early twenties, and then settle down with a family, a mortgage and some hope of promotion. 还有别的事情让大家心情焦虑。每个人都在心里盘算着过几个月毕业离校之后该找份什么样的工作。并不总是那些心怀抱负、成绩拔尖的高材生才清楚自己将来要做什么，常常是那些平日里默默无闻的同学早早为自己下几个阶段的人生做好了规划。有位同学在位于麦迪逊大道他哥哥的广告公司得到了一份工作，另一位同学写的电影脚本已经与好莱坞草签了合约。我们当中野心最大的一位同学准备到地方上当一个政党活动家，我们都预料他最终会当上参议员或国会议员。但大多数同学不是准备继续深造，就是想在银行、地方政府或其他单位当个白领，希望在20出头的时候能挣到足够多的薪水，过上舒适的生活，然后就娶妻生子，贷款买房，期望升职，过安稳日子。 3 I went home at Thanksgiving, and inevitably, mybrothers and sisters kept asking me what I was planning to do. I didn't know what to say. Actually, I did know what to say, but I thought they'd probably criticize me, so I told them what everyone else was thinking of doing. 感恩节的时候我回了一趟家，兄弟姐妹们免不了不停地问我毕业后有什么打算，我不知道该
