“我原谅你”

并非只有婚姻关系才需要宽恕。我们与子女、朋友、同事、邻居,甚至陌生人相处时同样需要宽恕。事实上,没有宽恕的氧气,任何人际关系都无从维系。宽恕并不是脾气好的人们才拥有的特质;它是所有关系的必要条件,也是自己的身心健康不可缺少的。

有些人可能认为,自己受伤太深、次数太多,无法宽恕。可耐人寻味的是,恰恰是被伤得最深的人,才真正需要宽恕别人,原因很简单:仇恨就像癌症,会毁掉宿主。如果不尽快铲除,它就会生根发芽,使那些执意仇恨无法释怀的人受伤甚至死亡。close

因为事实是,除非我们能宽恕他人,否则就永远无法恢复。伤口会继续溃烂,永不愈合。中国有句古谚:“复仇者必自绝”。

对有些人来说,宽恕他人似乎是不可能的,因为他们根本不知从何做起。首先你要接受一个非常重要的事实:宽恕他人并不是件容易的事。事实上,对于我们大多数人来说,这也许是最难做到的。

被伤害的是我们,却还要宽恕他人,这似乎毫无公平可言,然而这正是宽恕的关键所在。

“宽恕并忘记”,这句俗话谁都会脱口而出,但实际上既简单又肤浅。一则这是绝对不可能的,二则它完全偏离了宽恕的真正含义。生活中最需要宽恕的事正是那些无法忘记的事。我们不应把这些事掩饰起来,而需记住它们,并有意不因此对做过这些事的人怀有成见,然后继续生活。

这就是为什么有的时候会感到:宽恕别人,一开始会相对容易些,难的是每次你看到那个人,与他谈话,甚至只是想起他之后如何控制自己的感情。真正的宽恕不是一劳永逸之举,而是持久的情感面对。

等待越久,宽恕就越难。实际上,时间不会愈合伤口,只会让愤懑和仇恨更长时间地吞噬你的内心。如果要等待“适当的时候”,你也许永远都找不到机会。

开始运用宽恕的艺术之前,你先要问自己这样一个问题:我们中有多少人在特定的场合下是完全无辜的呢?

几年前,我和妻子买了一件便宜家具。最初几个月,它蒙蔽了所有人——美观、实用、人见人爱。我们认为它太适合我们家了。可时间一长,表面薄层的边角部分开始慢慢脱落。再也没有当初的效果了,不过至少它现在是以真实面目示人!事实是,不管喜欢不喜欢,在漂亮的表层下,我们都只是刨花板。因此,在我们评判别人之前,明智的做法是先在镜子里认真审视自己。我们越是审视自己,正视自己的缺点,便越愿意也越能够宽恕他人的缺点,宽恕得越多,也就越能体会到真正的满足。

宽恕他人能得到令人满意的反应。我发现向自己的孩子道歉不仅修复了我们破裂的关系,也有助于缓和紧张的局面,使孩子们更容易自己开口请求我的宽恕。如果你认为自己是对的,没有办法宽恕,那么问自己这个问题:要正确,还是要快乐?

要宽恕别人,最难的一点是迈出第一步——如果你已经好长时间不和伤害你的人讲话,就更是如此。但请记住,他们很可能会很高兴得到你的消息。他们也许甚至会因为你做了他们多年来想着要做的事而深受感动。但谨记你这样做是为他们,同样也是为自己,所以即便他们的反应有违你的期望也不要难过。

当然,有些人并不认为自己做错了什么,或者根本不在乎,因此如果你说要宽恕他们,那只会让两个人都懊恼。但这并不意味着你自己的心里没有宽恕。实际上,这才是真正的宽恕:不再生气,不再感觉受伤,心平气和对待发生的事,继续自己的生活。

怨恨越深,越不开心。如果不能学会宽恕这门“失传的艺术”,你就将永远是受害者,不仅是伤害你的人的受害者,也是自己情感的受害者。

宽恕别人能让你处于主动地位。尽管宽恕很难,但不宽恕的话情况还会更糟。“宽恕我们的罪过吧,虽然我们拒绝宽恕对不起我们的人”,《圣经》里没有这样的话,这可是有道理的。

那个微笑

哈诺·麦卡蒂很多美国人都熟悉《小王子》这本精彩的书,作者是法国作家安托万·德·圣埃克苏佩里。这书情节离奇,既可作儿童读物,也可看作引人深思的成人寓言。不过,圣埃克苏佩里的其他作品、小说和短篇故事却鲜为人知。

圣埃克苏佩里是战斗机飞行员,在二次大战对抗纳粹的战斗中阵亡。二次大战前,他曾参加西

班牙内战打击法西斯分子。他根据这段经历写了一个引人入胜的故事——《那个微笑》。我在这里

想跟你分享的就是这个故事。我不清楚他希望读者把这故事当成真实经历还是虚构的故事,不过我

倒愿意相信是前者。

作者说他被敌军俘虏,关进监牢。看守不屑的眼神,恶劣的态度,使他相信自己第二天肯定会被处决。以下,我将根据印象用自己的话来讲述这个故事。

“我肯定我会没命了。我极其惶恐不安。我翻遍口袋,希望能找到一些没被他们搜走的香烟。我找到了一支,但是手抖得厉害,差点没法把烟塞到嘴里去。但我没有火柴,他们搜走了。”

“我透过铁栏望着看守。他不与我进行眼神交流。是啊,人是不会跟物体、尸体交流眼神的。我对他喊道:‘有火吗?’他看了看我,耸耸肩,走过来帮我点火。”

“他凑过来点燃火柴,眼光不经意中与我的交织在一起。这时,我微笑了。我不知道自己为什么要这么做。也许是因为紧张,也许是因为两个人靠得很近时,你很难不对他微笑。不管怎么说,我微笑了。一瞬间,仿佛有一朵火花跃过我们两颗心,两个人类灵魂之间的鸿沟。我知道他并不想笑,但我的微笑跃过铁栏,在他嘴角也引发了一个笑容。他帮我点上了烟,但没有走开,正视着我的眼睛,一直微笑着。

“我一直朝他笑着,此时,在我心中,他是一个人,而不是一名看守,而他盯着我看的动作也似

乎有了新的含义。‘你有孩子了吗?’他问。”

“‘有,在这呢。’我拿出钱包,手忙脚乱地翻出了家人的照片。他也拿出了照片,开始讲述他对家人的期望与计划。我的眼中满是泪水。我说我害怕再也见不到家人,再也没有机会看他们长大。泪水也涌入他的眼眶。”close

“突然间,他二话不说打开了牢门,静静地带我出去。出了监狱,悄悄从后面的小路出了小镇。就在小镇的边上,他放了我。之后一言不发地就转身朝小镇的方向往回走。”

“一个微笑救了我的命。”

是啊,微笑是人与人之间最自然真挚的联系方式。我在文中讲这个故事,是因为我希望人们能想想,在我们为保护自己而建立的层层保护膜下——尊严、头衔、学位、身分、希望给别人留下某种印象的需要——在这一切之下,存在着一个真实、本质的自我。我不害怕把它叫做灵魂。我真的相信,如果你的那一部分和我的那一部分能彼此相认,我们就不会是敌人。我们就不可能有仇恨或妒嫉或恐惧。遗憾的是,所有那些我们小心翼翼建起的保护层,阻隔了彼此,让我们无法真诚相对。圣埃克苏佩里的这则故事,讲述的就是两个灵魂相认的那个神奇时刻。

我也曾经历过几个这样的奇妙时刻。坠入情网是其中一刻,还有就是看着婴儿的时候。为什么我们见到婴儿会微笑?也许是因为在他们身上没有种种防护层,我们知道,他们的微笑完全是纯真自然的,而我们内心的那颗童心也在热切而会心地微笑着。

Unit 4 Fresh Start In-Class Reading Fresh Start 新的开端 1当我父母开车离去,留下我可怜巴巴地站在停车场上时,我开始寻思我在校园里该做什么。我决定我最想做的就是平安无事地回到宿舍。我感到似乎校园里的每个人都在看着我。我打定主意:竖起耳朵,闭上嘴巴,但愿别人不知道我是新生。 2第二天早上我找到了上第一堂课的教室,大步走了进去。然而,进了教室,我又碰到了一个难题。坐哪儿呢?犹豫再三,我挑了第一排边上的一个座位。3“欢迎你们来听生物101 课,”教授开始上课。天哪,我还以为这里是文学课呢!我的脖子后面直冒冷汗,摸出课程表核对了一下教室——我走对了教室,却走错了教学楼。 4怎么办?上课途中就站起来走出去?教授会不会生气?大家肯定会盯着我看。算了吧。我还是稳坐在座位上,尽量使自己看起来和生物专业的学生一样认真。 5下了课我觉得有点饿,便赶忙去自助食堂。我往托盘里放了些三明治就朝座位走去,就在这时,我无意中踩到了一大滩番茄酱。手中的托盘倾斜了,我失去了平衡。就在我屁股着地的刹那间,我看见自己整个人生在眼前一闪而过,然后终止在大学上课的第一天。 6摔倒后的几秒钟里,我想要是没有人看见我刚才的窘相该有多好啊。但是,食堂里所有的学生都站了起来,鼓掌欢呼,我知道他们不仅看见了刚才的情景,而且下决心要我永远都不会忘掉这一幕。 7接下来的三天里,我独自品尝羞辱,用以果腹的也只是些从宿舍外的售货机上买来的垃圾食品。到了第四天,我感到自己极需补充一些真正意义上的食物。也许三天时间已经足以让校园里的人把我忘在脑后了。于是我去了食堂。 8我好不容易排队取了食物,踮脚走到一张桌子前坐下。突然我听到一阵熟悉的“哗啦”跌倒声。抬头看见一个可怜的家伙遭遇了和我一样的命运。当人们开始像对待我那样鼓掌欢呼的时候,我对他满怀同情。他站起身,咧嘴大笑,双手紧握高举在头顶上,做出胜利的姿势。我料想他会像我一样溜出食堂,可他却转身重新盛一盘食物。就在那一刻,我意识到我把自己看得太重了。

全新版大学英语综合教程2课文原文及翻译

One way of summarizing the American position is to state that we value originality and independence more than the Chinese do. The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor. Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired; there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity. American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge; on the other hand, skills can be picked up later. However, I do not want to overstate my case. There is enormous creativity to be found in Chinese scientific, technological and artistic innovations past and present. And there is a danger of exaggerating creative breakthroughs in the West. When any innovation is examined closely, its reliance on previous achievements is all too apparent (the "standing on the shoulders of giants" phenomenon). But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity are both worthwhile goals, the important question becomes this: Can we gather, from the Chinese and American extremes, a superior way to approach education, perhaps striking a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills?

BOOK2课文译文 UNIT1 TextA 中国式的学习风格 1987年春,我和妻子埃伦带着我们18个月的儿子本杰明在繁忙的中国东部城市南京住了一个月,同时考察中国幼儿园和小学的艺术教育情况。然而,我和埃伦获得的有关中美教育观念差异的最难忘的体验并非来自课堂,而是来自我们在南京期间寓居的金陵饭店堂。 我们的房门钥匙系在一块标有房间号的大塑料板上。酒店鼓励客人外出时留下钥匙,可以交给服务员,也可以从一个槽口塞入钥匙箱。由于口子狭小,你得留神将钥匙放准位置才塞得进去。 本杰明爱拿着钥匙走来走去,边走边用力摇晃着。他还喜欢试着把钥匙往槽口里塞。由于他还年幼,不太明白得把钥匙放准位置才成,因此总塞不进去。本杰明一点也不在意。他从钥匙声响中得到的乐趣大概跟他偶尔把钥匙成功地塞进槽口而获得的乐趣一样多。 我和埃伦都满不在乎,任由本杰明拿着钥匙在钥匙箱槽口鼓捣。他的探索行为似乎并无任何害处。但我很快就观察到一个有趣的现象。饭店里任何一个中国工作人员若在近旁,都会走过来看着本杰明,见他初试失败,便都会试图帮忙。他们会轻轻握牢本杰明的手,直接将它引向钥匙槽口,进行必要的重新定位,并帮他把钥匙插入槽口。然后那位“老师”会有所期待地对着我和埃伦微笑,似乎等着我们说声谢谢——偶尔他会微微皱眉,似乎觉得我俩没有尽到当父母的责任。 我很快意识到,这件小事与我们在中国要做的工作直接相关:考察儿童早期教育(尤其是艺术教育)的方式,揭示中国人对创造性活动的态度。因此,不久我就在与中国教育工作者讨论时谈起了钥匙槽口一事。 两种不同的学习方式

我的中国同行,除了少数几个人外,对此事的态度与金陵饭店工作人员一样。既然大人知道怎么把钥匙塞进槽口——这是走近槽口的最终目的,既然孩子还很年幼,还没有灵巧到可以独自完成要做的动作,让他自己瞎折腾会有什么好处呢?他很有可能会灰心丧气发脾气——这当然不是所希望的结果。为什么不教他怎么做呢?他会高兴,他还能早些学会做这件事,进而去学做更复杂的事,如开门,或索要钥匙——这两件事到时候同样可以(也应该)示范给他看。 我俩颇为同情地听着这一番道理,解释道,首先,我们并不在意本杰明能不能把钥匙塞进钥匙的槽口。他玩得开心,而且在探索,这两点才是我们真正看重的。但关键在于,在这个过程中,我们试图让本杰明懂得,一个人是能够很好地自行解决问题的。这种自力更生的精神是美国中产阶级最重要的一条育儿观。如果我们向孩子演示该如何做某件事——把钥匙塞进钥匙槽口也好,画只鸡或是弥补某种错误行为也好——那他就不太可能自行想方设法去完成这件事。从更广泛的意义上说,他就不太可能——如美国人那样——将人生视为一系列 的情境,在这些情境中,一个人必须学会独立思考,学会独立解决问题,进而学会发现需要创造性地加以解决的新问题。 把着手教 回想起来,当时我就清楚地意识到,这件事正是体现了问题的关键之所在——而且不仅仅是一种意义上的关键之所在。这件事表明了我们两国在教育和艺术实践上的重要差异。 那些善意的中国旁观者前来帮助本杰明时,他们不是简单地像我可能会做的那样笨拙地或是犹犹豫豫地把他的手往下推。相反,他们极其熟练地、轻轻地把他引向所要到达的确切方向。 我逐渐认识到,这些中国人不是简单地以一种陈旧的方式塑造、引导本杰明的行为:他们是在恪守中国传统,把着手教,教得本杰明自己会愉快地要求再来一次。

Unit 1 Personal Relationship In-Class Reading The Gift of Life 以生命相赠 1 炸弹落在了这个小村庄里。在可怕的越南战争期间,谁也不知道这些炸弹要轰炸什么目标,而它们却落在了一所由传教士办的小孤儿院内。 2 传教士和一两个孩子已经丧生,还有几个孩子受了伤,其中有一个小女孩,8岁左右,双腿被炸伤了。 3 几小时后,医疗救援小组到了。医疗小组由一名年轻的美国海军医生和一名同样年轻的海军护士组成。他们很快发现有个小女孩伤势严重。显然,如果不立即采取行动,她就会因失血过多和休克而死亡。 4 他们明白必须给小女孩输血,但是他们的医药用品很有限,没有血浆,因此需要匹配的血型。快速的血型测定显示两名美国人的血型都不合适。而几个没有受伤的孤儿却有匹配的血型。 5 医生会讲一点越南语,护士会讲一点法语,但只有中学的法语水平。孩子们不会说英语,只会说一点法语。医生和护士用少得可怜的一点共同语言,结合大量的手势,努力向这些受惊吓的孩子们解释说,除非他们能输一些血给自己的小伙伴,否则她将必死无疑。然后他们问孩子们是否有人愿意献血来救小女孩。 6 对医生和护士的请求,孩子们瞪大眼睛,一声不吭。此时小病人生命垂危。然而,只有这些受惊吓的孩子中有人自愿献血,他们才能够得到血。过了好一会儿,一只小手慢慢地举了起来,然后垂了下去,一会儿又举了起来。 7 “噢,谢谢,”护士用法语说。“你叫什么名字?” 8 “兴,”小男孩回答道。 9 兴很快被抱到一张床上,手臂用酒精消毒后,针就扎了进去。在整个过程中,兴僵直地躺着,没有出声。 10 过了一会儿,他发出了一声长长的抽泣,但立即用那只可以活动的手捂住了自己的脸。 11 “兴,疼吗?”医生问。 12 兴默默地摇了摇头,但一会儿忍不住又抽泣起来,并又一次试图掩饰自己的哭声。医生又问是不是插在手臂上的针弄疼了他,兴还是摇了摇头。 13 但现在,偶尔的抽泣变成了持续无声的哭泣。他紧紧地闭着眼睛,用拳头堵住嘴,想竭力忍住哭泣。 14 医疗小组此时非常担忧,因为针不会使他们的小输血者一直感到疼痛。一定是哪里出了问题。恰好这时,一名越南护士前来帮忙。看到小男孩在哭,她用越南话很快地问他原因。听了小男孩的回答后,又立即作了回答。护士一边说,一边俯身轻轻拍着小男孩的头,她的声音亲切柔和。 15 一会儿,小男孩不再哭了,他睁开眼睛,用质疑的目光看着越南护士。护士点了点头,小男孩的脸上马上露出了宽慰的神色。 16 越南护士抬起头平静地对两名美国人说: “他以为自己快死了。他误解了你们。以为你们要他献出所有的血,小女孩才能活下来。” 17 “那他为什么还愿意这么做呢?”海军护士问。 18 越南护士把这个问题向小男孩重复了一遍。小男孩简单地回答道: “她是我的朋友。” 19 他为了朋友甘愿献出自己的生命,没有比这更伟大的爱了。

Globalization is sweeping aside national borders and changing relations between nations. What impact does this have on national identities and loyalties? Are they strengthened or weakened? The author investigates. 全球化正在扫除国界、改变国与国之间的关系。这对国家的认同和对国家的忠诚会带来什么影响呢?它们会得到加强还是削弱?作者对这些问题进行了探讨。 In Search of Davos ManPeter Gumbel 1. William Browder was born in Princeton, New Jersey, grew up in Chicago, and studied at Stanford University in California. But don't call him an American. For the past 16 of his 40 years he has lived outside the ., first in London and then, from 1996, in Moscow, where he runs his own investment firm. Browder now manages $ billion in assets. In 1998 he gave up his American passport to become a British citizen, since his life is now centered in Europe. "National identity makes no difference for me," he says. "I feel completely international. If you have four good friends and you like what you are doing, it doesn't matter where you are. That's globalization." 寻找达沃斯人 彼得·甘贝尔 威廉·布劳德出生于新泽西州的普林斯顿,在芝加哥长大,就读于加利福尼亚州的斯坦福大学。但别叫他美国人。他今年40岁,过去16年来一直生活在美国以外的地方,先是在伦敦,1996年后在莫斯科经营他自己的投资公司。布劳德如今掌管着价值16亿美元的资产。1998年,他放弃美国护照,成为英国公民,因为他现在的生活中心在欧洲。“国家认同对我来说不重要,”他说,“我觉得自己完全是个国际人。如果你有四个朋友,又喜欢你所做的事情,那么你在哪儿无关紧要。这就是全球化。” 2. Alex Mandl is also a fervent believer in globalization, but he views himself very differently. A former president of AT&T, Mandl, 61, was born in Austria and now runs a French technology company, which is doing more and more business in China. He reckons he spends about 90% of his time traveling on business. But despite all that globetrotting, Mandl who has been a . citizen for 45 years still identifies himself as an American. "I see myself as American without any hesitation. The fact that I spend a lot of time in other places doesn't change that," he says. 亚历克斯·曼德尔也是全球化的狂热信徒,但他对自己的看法与布劳德不同。61岁的曼德尔曾任美国电报电话公司总裁。他出生于奥地利,现在经营着一家法国技术公司,该公司在中国的业务与日俱增。他估计自己几乎90%的时间都花在出差上。然而,尽管曼德尔全球到处跑,已经做了45年美国公民的他还是认为自己是个美国人。“我毫不迟疑地把自己当作美国人。我在其他地方度过很多时间,但是这一事实不能改变我是美国人,”他说。 3. Although Browder and Mandl define their nationality differently, both see their identity as a matter of personal choice, not an accident of birth. And not incidentally, both are Davos Men, members of the international business élite who trek each year to the Swiss Alpine town for the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum, founded in 1971. This week, Browder and Mandl will join more than 2,200 executives, politicians, academics, journalists, writers and a handful of Hollywood stars for five days of networking, parties and endless earnest discussions about everything from post-election Iraq and HIV in Africa to the global supply of oil and the implications of nanotechnology. Yet this year, perhaps more than ever, a hot topic at Davos is Davos itself. Whatever their considerable differences, most Davos Men and
