【微聚焦】你有“安妮?海瑟薇综合症”吗?

什么样的女性才是讨人喜欢的?有时候,勤奋上进的女强人并不

讨人喜欢,比如力求完美却得不到美国人民欢心的安妮?海瑟薇。的确,

很多时候,当你工作非常努力,你的付出都得到褒奖,你的脸定义了

美的标准,总之,当你在所有人生考卷上都填上了正确答案,而其他

人对你做的只有一件事:讨厌你。不用瞎琢磨了,你患上的正是安妮?

海瑟薇(Anne Hathaway)综合症。那么,造成这种安妮?海瑟薇综合症的原因是什么呢?不过,努力上进从来不会是错,有时候也不用太在意别人的眼光。【编者语】

The first symptoms of Anne Hathaway Syndrome appeared in the run-up to the 2013 Oscars, when the composed, on-point Hathaway (nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Les Miserables) became a natural foil to Jennifer Lawrence's cool gir l tsunami. “Why Do Women Hate Anne Hathaway? (But Love Jennifer Lawrence?),” posed New York Magazine; “Anne Hathaway vs. Jennifer Lawrence: Why we hate one and love the other,” The Globe and Mail explained; “The Happy Girl vs. The Cool Girl: Why People Don't Like Anne Hathaway,” wrote Indiewire. The New York Daily News even interviewed people on the street about their hatred of Hathaway: “She's trying too hard to please everyone,” said one 28-year-old from Queens.

安妮?海瑟薇综合症的第一个症状出现在2013年奥斯卡颁奖前。安妮?海瑟薇凭借《悲惨世界》获得最佳女配角提名,可淡定、完美的她却只是炫酷大表姐珍妮佛?劳伦斯的陪衬。《纽约》杂志顺势抛出话题“为什么女性不喜欢安妮?海瑟薇?(却都爱詹妮弗?劳伦斯)”;加拿大《环球邮报》赤裸裸地说:“安妮?海瑟薇VS詹妮佛?劳伦斯:我们为什么恨一个却爱另一个?”;电影影片网站Indiewire说:“快乐女孩VS炫酷女孩:为什么人们不喜欢安妮?海瑟薇。《纽约每日新闻》甚至在街边采访路人,看他们对海瑟薇的厌恶有多深。皇后区一名28岁的年轻人说:”她为了讨好大家,做得有点过头了。“

Hathaway's immediate tactic was to admit that her feelings had been hurt—“It does get to me,” she

every positive.”

对此,海瑟薇第一个策略是承认自己真的很受伤。她说:“这伤到我了。不过你必须牢记,生活中再积极的事儿也有消极的一面,再消极的事儿也有积极的一面。”

So Hathaway stopped trying, at least for a bit. She's had only one starring role—as a scientist in Interstellar—since her Oscar win, and she's maintained a relatively low profile. But in the last six months, The Try has returned: Alongside Kristen Stewart and Brie Larson, she's the least cool part of Jenny Lewis's “Just One of the Guys” music video. She even performed Miley Cyrus's “Wrecking Ball” on Lip Sync Battle. Her Instagram is a series of self-conscious selfies, sincere mourning for Cecil the lion, and publicity shots paired with invitations to join her at the Apple Store, and cringe worthy use of hashtags.

之后,海瑟薇就不那么拼了。抱回小金人后,她只主演了《星际穿越》中的一位科学家,还一直很低调。不过最近半年她拼命三娘的劲头又回来了:她和克里斯汀?斯图尔特和布丽?拉尔森一起录制了珍妮?刘易斯的单曲《其中一个家伙》的MV,她是几人中最不酷的。她还在真人秀《明星假唱大赛》上模仿了麦莉?赛勒斯的《毁灭球》。她在Instagram上发图也很谨慎,为狮子塞西亚默哀,受邀参加苹果商店活动的公开拍摄,对于热门标签的使用也很小心。

But Hathaway's really not doing anything that different from T aylor Swift or Anna Kendrick. But their Try is just slightly less visible and, as such, infinitely more tolerable. Hathaway has checked every box on the “how to be a female celebrity” checklist. What’s frustrating, and maybe even tragic, is that doing so still makes people deeply dislike her.

她的行为和泰勒?斯威夫特和安娜?肯德里克没什么不同。不同后者的努力更隐蔽或者更容易被大众接受。海瑟薇查阅了所有关于“如何成为女明星”的技巧清单。然并卵,悲催的是人们还是很不喜欢她。

For most women: Success is not the same as likability. In fact, it's often something that leads to the opposite. The things we value in men (power, drive, decisiveness) become the things we stigmatize in women.

对女性来说:成功和可爱是两码事。事实上,两者相去甚远。我们欣赏的男性特质(比如能力、上进心和果敢)成

了我们最不愿意看到的女性特征。

The Intern, then, is really a two-hour meditation on Anne Hathaway Syndrome.

电影《实习生》真的就是对安妮?海瑟薇综合症的两小时反思。

Within the confines of The Intern, it's easy to see how unfairly Jules is treated. It's harder, however, to see our own repulsion from Hathaway within that same paradigm: how we react against a woman who's done her job too well, who's failed to adequately hide her effort.

在电影中,我们很容易看到女主朱尔斯受到的不公正待遇。而我们却很难发现我们对海瑟薇的反感和电影是相似的:我们如何对待一个工作出色却没能很好地藏住锋芒的女性。

Of course, everyone has the right to feel any way they please about the popular images that surround us. But, as always, those feelings say more about us—what we value and decry, but also our inner complexities and hypocrisies—than they do about the celebrities themselves.

当然,每个人都有权利喜欢或者不喜欢我们周围的公众人物。不过这些感觉往往透露了我们自己(的内心):我们重视什么和鄙视什么,我们复杂的内心和深处的伪善。相比之下,这对明星的影响小得多。

【微口语】英语如何评价他人的“IQ和EQ”?

(1)You are such a genius.

你真是个天才。

(2)You must have a high IQ score.

你的智商一定很高。

(3)One's IQ won't work without EQ.

智商离不开情商。

(4)While IQ gets you hired, EQ gets you promoted.

你因智商受聘,因情商升迁。

(5)One can't expect to make a lot of improvement in IQ.

一个人的智商是不会有太大长进的。

(6)High IQ means you can be a geek or just a fool.

智商高意味着你要么是个怪才,要么是个傻瓜。

(7)An optimistic person is more likely to have a high EQ.

乐观的人情商较高。

(8)While IQ defines how smart you are, EQ defines how well you use it.

智商决定了你有多聪明,情商决定了你如何运用你的聪明才智。

(9)People without sufficient EQ will have a hard time in life.

情商不高的人在生活中总是磕磕绊绊。

(10)Leaders in the world would all have a high level of emotional intelligence.

世界上的领导人大都有高的情商。

【微听力】你读书是为了炫耀吗?

【听力原文】

What do you read when you are travelling by train or bus?

What are other passengers reading? Perhaps a woman sitting

near you is reading a trashy romantic novel. A man is reading a

serious biography about a politician. And there's a student reading an English textbook.

What do their choices say about them? Do you judge them by what they are reading?

I have got to tell you that your impressions of them are probably completely wrong. The woman reading the romantic novel could be a lawyer. She just wants alight read to take her mind off work.

The man reading the biography wants you to think that he is an intellectual, but he is just showing off. The student reading the textbook isn't a student at all. She's an English teacher.

Publishers know that some people are self-conscious about what they read on public transport and so they put out different versions of a cover. For example, books about Harry Potter have an original cover for young readers and then another more serious version for adults.

So next time you are on a train, look around and see what other people are reading, but don't jump to any conclusions. You will probably be wrong.

【微翻译】这下没辙了!英文里如何翻译“没辙”的困境?

(1)我无法走出这一困境。

【译】I see no way out of this impasse.

【析】用上“no way out”这个短语时,说明你已经无路可逃,成

了小困兽一枚。

(2)他不愿来也就罢了。

【译】Well , if he doesn't want to come, it can't be helped.

【析】“it couldn't be helped.”这个断句从字面上也不难看出它的意思,表示怎么做也没法改变现状,无能为力了。

(3)公司的困境使他一筹莫展。

【译】He is at his wits' end because of the tough situation of the company.

【析】“wit”有“智慧”之意,如果一个人的智慧用到头儿了,则说明他真的是没招了。

(4)我是真搞不懂,我也不知道他们是怎么比我们还早到的。

【译】I'm stumped. I don't know how they got here before us.

【析】表示问题太难被问倒了,或者被难住了,都可以用“stumped”来形容。

(5)我跟他们的谎言打交道已经很久了,真是没辙了。

【译】I've been dealing with their lies for too long. I'm at the end of my rope.

【析】除了用智慧的尽头来形容没招了,英文还有一个短语是用绳子的尽头表示“山穷水尽”、“实在没辙了”,即“at the end of one's rope”。

【微阅读】未来,家具会飞

Imagine a future where your furniture flies, reacting and

responding to your everyday needs. You could have an

almost—sentient desk that jets off when it feels you're

over-working, or a remote control that floats over when you

think you've lost it. In an interactive project dubbed

“L'evolved,” Harshit Agrawal and Sang-Won Leigh, two researchers from the MIT Media Lab's Fluid Interfaces Group, are exploring how to make everyday objects transform into “flying smart agents.”

想象一下,未来你的家具会飞,还能满足与回应日常需求。当你工作过量时,智能书桌会自动飞离;当你以为遥控器丢了,它会自动浮现在你眼前。来自MIT媒介流界面小组的两位研究者哈什特·阿格拉瓦尔与桑王·利,正探究如何让日常用品转变为“会飞的智能物件”。

“We really look at this as a way of making the objects around us kind of speak with us,” Agrawal said. “In the sense that they somehow know what they are doing, so they might pre vent you from doing something wrong or light up your path in a dark environment.”

阿格拉瓦尔说:“事实上,我们希望能让身边的物品与自己对话,即物品从某种程度上了解你的需求,因此它们能避免你做出不当举动,或者懂得在黑暗中为你亮起一盏灯。”

So far, their project features drones acting as flying tables that adjust to your height, fly away once you're done, or auto-eject if you start using the wrong pen on your homework. They also have a lampshade drone that hovers above you, focusing light on where you need it when you're reading a book in the dark. To power their flying furniture, the pair used a motion capture system where a camera tracks everything in the room—including the person and the drone, which receives commands from the computer.

到目前为止,这项以智能飞翔为特点的家具计划中,有会飞的桌子能自动适应你的身高,一旦工作完成,它会自动飞离;有当你做作业时拿错了会自动弹开的钢笔;还有悬浮在你身边的灯罩,它会自动在黑暗中为你提供光亮。为

具,然后通过电脑接受指令。

“The computer knows where the drone wants to go by tracking where the person is,” explained Leigh. “We are feeding that data from the computer to the drone so that it can move smoothly to the required position.”

利解释道:“电脑通过追踪人的位置,就能知晓飞翔的家具应去往何处。我们将电脑中的数据传输给家具,使其准确移动到指定位置。”

Currently, the duo faces two main challenges: stabilizing the drone, and feeding it a regular power supply (at the moment, it's connected to a power socket).

如今,两位研究者面临着两大挑战:增强飞翔家具的稳定型,并实现充电功能(现在它们仍依赖电源插座)。Drones can't support much weight yet, so the team opted for a paper tabletop. They soon found, however, that if they placed the tabletop directly on top of the drone, it blocked airflow. T o solve this problem, they made the distance between the drone base and its paper tabletop greater so it could keep flying.

飞翔家具还无法承受过多的重量,因此研究团队选用了纸质台面。然而他们很快发现,如果直接将台面搁到飞翔家具上,会阻碍飞行。为了解决这个问题,他们加大了飞翔家具底座和纸质台面的距离,以保证它能飞行。Agrawal said that in the future, they could optimize stability by replacing a hovering desk with one that parks in front of users when they need it, then clears off when the user has finished their task.

阿格拉瓦尔认为,在未来,他们将优化飞翔家具的性能,用飞翔的桌子代替用户面前静态的桌子,当使用者工作完成后,桌子能自动离开。

Ultimately, the researchers are set on enchanting everyday appliances so that they surpass their limitations as static objects, and have a more socially collaborative relationship with their human owners. 最终,研究者将让日常家电也魔力四射,它们将超越传统静态物品的局限,与人类建立更好的协作关系。Vocabulary:

(1)sentient:adj. 有感情的;有感觉力的

(2)lampshade:n. 灯罩(3)power socket:电源插座

【微智慧】桌面乱?也许天才就是你!

Like everyone else, geniuses need a place to work. However,

since every genius is different, they naturally have different ideas

of the workspaces that will make them productive. This post

shows the work areas belonging to seven of the greatest

geniuses of all time. Based on the appearance of your desk,

which type of genius might you be?

像我们一样,天才需要一定的工作空间。然而由于每个天才都是独一无二的,对于工作环境也有独到的想法,从而让自己变得高效。这篇文章像我们展示了七张不同时期的天才人士的桌子。看看桌子看看自己,你是哪种类型的人才呢?

(1)Creative clutter. 乱中有序。

Your desk is covered with documents and notes because you're more interested in ideas than in making things tidy. Not to worry, though. If you really need to find a particular scrap of paper, you're pretty sure where it's lying in the stack. Your role model: Albert Einstein.

如果你的桌子上布满了各类文件和笔记,那么说明比起整洁你更在乎的是创意。不过不必担心,如果你想找某一张纸,你是完全知道它是在哪里的。你的天才典范:爱因斯坦。

(2)Minimalist. 至简态度。

Your desk is no-nonsense. You've got the tools you need to get the job done, with no distractions. Why waste space with photos or doodads? What's important is getting the job done, as quickly as possible. You don't have the time to daydream. Your role model: Marie Curie.

你不允许自己的桌子职能低下。你喜欢在桌子上摆放必须要用的工具,不能有其他干扰工作的东西。为什么浪费空间摆一些照片或是小玩意呢?以最快的速度完成工作才是最要紧的。你不想浪费时间遐想人生百态。你的天才典范:居里夫人。

You tend to work in bursts of creativity followed by periods of relaxation where you collect your thoughts and ponder what to do next. Your work area has toys and games to occupy your time...and that of the many people who enjoy hanging out with you. Your role model: Mark Twain.

你的工作需要你充满创意,所以定时的放松能让你灵感迸发,知道下一步该做什么。你需要玩具和游戏来占据你的时间,还需要和小伙伴们一起玩耍。你的天才典范:马克·吐温。

(4)The organizer. 有条不紊。

Your brain works best when you put everything into categories. There's a place for everything, and nothing should be out of place. After all, without being organized, how could you possibly take on so many different tasks and still be successful? Your role model: Thomas Edison.

在各种物品摆放有条理的时候你的大脑工作状态最好。每个物品都是一个萝卜一个坑,不许放错。毕竟,如果脏乱差,你怎么可能完成这么多任务,取得成功呢?你的天才典范:爱迪生。

(5)All wired up. 错综复杂。

Your office is control central, connected to everyone and everything. You've got a PC, a laptop, a tablet, a smartphone, an Apple Watch...and maybe more than one of each. You've got all the gadgets that go along with them, too, so you can work at light-speed. Your role model: Nikola Tesla.

你的办公室是一个控制中心,和所有人所有事都有关联。电脑,笔记本,平板,手机苹果手表......可能每一种还不止一个。并且这些东西相伴而生的还有很多其他小玩意儿,所以你可以活在光速里。你的天才典范:特斯拉。(6)The garden. 亲近自然。

To do your best work, you must feel connected with nature. You've got to have the window view and, if possible, a desk to work outside when the weather is nice. Your creativity blooms best when you're closest to the flowers. Your role model: VirginiaWoolf.

想要做的最好,你就会追求与自然的联系。你需要靠窗办公,如果可能,在天气好的时候还要在室外办公。如果坐在花朵附近,你的创造力可能会爆发。典范:弗吉尼亚·沃尔夫。

(7)Home sweet home. 入座如归。

While others thrive in a busy office, you'd rather work surrounded by the objects and people you love. You have your best ideas after a leisurely cup of coffee or, later, a sip or two of claret. You've mastered the ability to work and live with elegance. Your role model: Charles Darwin.

他人在忙碌的办公室工作,而你更倾向于办公室被你爱的人和熟悉的事物环绕。在惬意地喝完一杯咖啡或是品尝几口红酒后,你才能想到最棒的点子。生活和工作中的优雅自如对你是与生俱来的。你的天才典范:达尔文。

【微测试】英语四六级阅读测试题(26)

According to a survey, which was based on the responses of

over 188,000 students, today's traditional-age college

freshmen are ”more materialistic and less altruistic(利他主

义的)”than at any time in the 17 years of the poll.

Not surprising in these hard times, the student's major

objective “is to be financially well off. Less important than ever is developing a meaningful philosophy of life.” It follows then that today the most popular course is not literature or history but accounting.

Interest in teaching, social service and the“altruistic”fields is at a low. On the other hand, enrollment in business programs, engineering and computer science is way up.

That's no surprise either. A friend of mine (a sales representative for a chemical company) was making twice the salary of her college instructors her first year on the job-even before she completed her

two-year associate degree.

While it's true that we all need a career, it is equally true that our civilization has accumulated an incredible amount of knowledge in fields far removed from our own and that we are better for our understanding of these other contributions m be they scientific or artistic. It is equally true that, in studying the diverse wisdom of others, we learn how to think. More important, perhaps, education teaches us to see the connections between things, as well as to see beyond our immediate needs.

business. No company; no job. How shortsighted in the long run!

But the most important argument for a broad education is that in studying the accumulated wisdom of the ages, we improve our moral sense. I saw a cartoon recently which shows a group of businessmen looking puzzled as they sit around a conference table; one of them is talking on the intercom(对讲机): “Miss Baxter,”he says, “could you please send in someone who can distinguish right from wrong?”

(1)According to the author's observation, college students _______.

A. have never been so materialistic as today

B. have never been so interested in the arts

C. have never been so financially well off as today

D. have never attached so much importance to moral sense

(2)The students' criteria for selecting majors today have much to do with _______.

A. the influences of their instructors

B. the financial goals they seek in life

C. their own interpretations of the courses

D. their understanding of the contributions of others

(3)By saying “While it's true that...be they scientific or artistic”(Lines 1-3, Para. 5), the author means that _______.

A. business management should be included in educational programs

B. human wisdom has accumulated at an extraordinarily high speed

C. human intellectual development has reached new heights

D. the importance of a broad education should not be overlooked

(4)Studying the diverse wisdom of others can ________.
