A Trip to China

A: Hi, Bob. Fancy meeting you here.

B: Oh, Ted. Good to see you again. How have you been?

A: Pretty good. I've just returned from China, you know.

B: Terrific! I'd really like to visit China myself one of these days. I haven't had the opportunity so far. Where did you go in China?

A: Lots of places... world-renowned places like the capital Beijing, prosperous Shanghai, the historic city Xi'an — China's ancient capital on and off for several hundred years — and the scenic Guilin, and, oh, yes,"hot and spicy" Chengdu. I also visited many other places of historical interest and many famous mountains and great rivers, too.

B: Lucky you. China's huge size and that rich cultural legacy of 5,000 years of civilization have always captured my imagination. I envy you.

A: Well, China's tourist resources are inexhaustible and all that I have seen is only the tip of the iceberg.

B: Which place impressed you the most?

A: I would say the two-thousand-year-old terracotta warriors and horses in Xi'an. I was there exactly two weeks ago today.

B: I read about them somewhere, and I've seen the pictures in National Geographic. Amazing... Unbelievable, I'd say.

A: Yes, the Xi'an trip was quite an experience. I saw row upon row of life-size warriors and horses, so true to life. It was a breathtaking experience walking past them. Tell you what, no two warriors look alike. Each wears his own facial expression and has his own personality. And the horses... oh, they look so alive.

B: Sounds fantastic!

A: There was something even more fantastic than the terracotta army. Guess what...

B: Hot springs? Pagodas?Giant pandas? I've no idea.

A: Chinese food, authentic Chinese cooking that is unparalleled anywhere else in the world. I'd go back to China again just for those spicy-hot Sichuan dishes. There's really nothing like Sichuan food.

B: You make my mouth water. I think I might also take a trip to China to see terracotta warriors and enjoy some real Chinese food.

A: But if you say you will eat Chinese food, you're taking too much for granted. As a matter of fact, there's no such thing as so-called "Chinese food."

B: I don't understand what you're saying.

A: Let me put it this way. China is such a large country that there are numerous cooking styles that are vastly different from each other. One may prefer a particular Chinese food or a particular regional way of cooking.

B: It's not easy to order food in China's restaurants, then.

A: There is an easy way. For me, that is ordering Chinese food by the names of famous dishes rather than by any prevailing style. For example, if you like hot and spicy food and don't want to gain extra weight, you can order MapoDoufu, a famous dish of hot and spicy bean curd.

B: Well, in that case I'll ask for your company when I've made up my mind to visit China.

Human Needs

When we speak of a basic human need we mean something which is necessary to life, something that we cannot possibly do without. Food is a basic human need. Without it we would starve to death. However, if we have plenty of food,but of the wrong kind,our bodies will suffer from a lack of the right food.This is known as malnutrition.

In primitive countries man's food needs are the same as in the more advanced societies like our own. We all need food and could manage to live a healthy life on the limited types of food. Primitive people eat only the foods which can be grown near their homes, whereas we eat foods which are often grown many thousands of miles away from our homes.Primitive people are satisfied with less variety than we are, and therefore we can say that although their needs are like our own their wants are different. Just think of the different types of meat we eat: beef, mutton,pork,chicken,turkey, goose,and rabbit.We could manage on a diet of one kind of meat, but how monotonous it would become! Even turkey, which most of us eat only at Christmas,would become monotonous if we ate it every day.Yet we cannot live on meat alone. We need foods like bread and fruit to provide us with other essential nutrients which we need to keep out bodies healthy.

We can agree with primitive man that food is a basic need,but we differ from him in our food wants because of the wide variety of food we have available compared with him;we have a wider choice.Take fruit,for example. Not only can we enjoy the fruits grown in this country, but, because of modem methods of transport and food preservation,we can also enjoy the more exotic fruits from countries thousands of miles away, whereas primitive man is limited in his choice to the kinds of fruit which actually grow where he lives.

The same is true of the second of our human needs.Clothing is necessary to regulate the heat of our bodies.Since we live in a temperate climate we need more clothes than people living in tropical countries, but less than people living in arctic conditions.Likewise,our clothing needs to

change with the seasons.In summer we need light clothing while in winter we need to muffle ourselves to keep warm.

Shelter, the third of our needs,depends upon the climate, the skill of the builder, one's social position, and the materials available. The simple shelter of the aboriginal would not do for us,and yet it satisfies his needs.The three-bedroomed suburban house of the average family would not be grand enough for a very rich family, and yet the modern house contains many of the material comforts which were denied to the kings and queens of the old days.

B1U4T1RII

Bread

In man's early progress toward civilization, there were many great steps forward —the domestication of animals, the invention of the wheel, the development of writing, the use of money, the growth of commerce and cities. But the most important step of all was the beginning of agriculture. If man had remained a hunter, none of the rest of his accomplishments would have been possible.

We don't know how agriculture began. It is probable that the first crops that were grown for food were grains, such as wheat, barley, rye, oats, and rice. From these grains, one of man's most important foods — bread — is made.

Bread is essentially nothing more than a mixture of flour and water which can be cooked and eaten. Flour can be made from many different crops. For example, it can be made from manioc root, or from potatoes or bananas. The Indians of the New World made flour from Indian corn, or maize, and people in the United States still like cornbread. No one knows how man discovered that wheat could be made into bread, though it is certain that the first wheat was wild grass. Wheat is the most important grain from which flour can be made. This is because leavened bread can be made from wheat flour. Wheat can be grown almost all over the world. The people of the New World did not have wheat until it was introduced by the Europeans in about 1530. It is a major crop in the Mediterranean countries, in France and England, and in Pakistan. It is a major crop in India and China, too, even though in these countries rice is the main food. Five countries usually produce a large surplus of wheat, that is, they grow more wheat than they need for their own use and are able to export it to other countries. They are the United States, Canada, Australia, the Soviet Union, and Argentina.

Making bread out of wheat is a long and complicated process. First, the land must be ploughed. When the ground is ready, the seed is planted in the ground. In many countries, the fields must also be irrigated, because there is not enough rain. When the grain is ripe, it must be harvested. The first step in harvesting is cutting off the head which contains the grain. Then the wheat must be threshed, in order to remove the hard covering, something like a shell, from the grain. After the wheat has been threshed, the good grains must be separated from the hard shell. Machines do most of this work now.

When all this is done, the wheat must be made into flour. This is done in a mill. The wheat is ground into fine powder between large stones. In early times, the stones were turned by water or animals; this is done almost everywhere now by machines. After the flour is made, it is mixed with water, yeast, and salt, and then it is baked.

Unit Nine: 新闻将我们引向何方 不久前我应邀参加了一次有关美国报业的作用的公众研讨会。还有另外两个嘉宾也出席了。一位是知名的电视节目主持人,另一位是美国一家主要报纸的编辑,他是一位彻头彻尾的新闻工作者---- 在据实报道的方式上坚忍不拔、积极进取且见识过人。 据我所知本次研讨旨在审查传媒的义务,并提出实现那些义务的最佳途径。 在公开讨论时,观众席中的一位男士向两位嘉宾提问,“为什么报纸和电视新闻节目都充斥灾难?为什么新闻界的男男女女对悲剧、暴力、和失败是如此关注?” 主持人和编辑作出了回答,好像是自己应该为坏消息的存在而受到谴责一样。他们说,新闻工作者只负责报道新闻,而不负责制造或修改新闻。 我不认为这两位新闻工作者回答了这个问题。提出这个问题的先生并没有因为世上的歪曲报道而谴责他们。他只是想知道为什么报道得最多的是歪曲的事件。新闻媒体的运作理念似乎是凡是新闻皆坏事。为什么呢?是不是着重报道负面新闻是一种传统——是新闻工作者所习以为常的对日常事件作出的反应方式? 在此或许分析一下我们如何定义“新闻”一词会有所帮助,因为这是问题的起因。新闻应该是报道过去十二小时,最迟二十四小时内所发生的事情。然而,突发事件往往具有爆炸性的:一名狙击手枪杀了几名行人,一名恐怖分子劫持了飞机上250名人质,欧佩克石油组织宣布原油价格上涨25%,英国货币又贬值10%,一辆载有放射性废料的卡车与一架水泥搅拌车相撞。 然而,一味聚焦这些报道,则是失真的画面。人类文明成果远远多于灾难总和。每种文明中最重要的成分就是进步。但进步不会立即发生,也没有爆发性。一般来说,它是一点一滴逐步发展的,在某个特定时刻是微不足察的。但是所有微小的进步都参与了历史性的巨变的实现,使社会更加美好。 就是这类活生生的历史,绝大多数的新闻媒体没有予以充分的反映,结果导致我们对社会的正面发展了解不足,对灾难却知之甚多,这又使人产生失败和绝望的情绪,而这些情绪易于阻碍社会进步。爆发性新闻大餐另人忧心忡忡,大大削减了自由社会所需的动力,绝望和偾世的情绪使人没有动力迎接严峻的考验。 我并非暗示可以编造“积极”的新闻来抵消头版上灾难报道的作用。也没有把青年基督会作用的深刻报道定义为“正面”新闻。我要传递的观点是,新闻媒体的职责是搜寻并报道重大事件,无论它们是否有关冲突、对抗或灾难。这个世界是天堂和地狱的绝妙结合,两个方面都需要关注和观察。 我希望新闻界人士能从更宽广的角度审视自己的职责。是时候认识到人类事件中可以作为新闻报道的范围领域是极其宽广的。例如,有几篇新闻文章报道过固氮作用——植物通过这一过程能固定氮肥,由此减低了肥料需求量?全世界的科学家都在为这一前景而努力,希望借此解决饥荒。对远东地区水稻产量提高的巨大进步又了解多少?事实上,世界上还有许多类似的重要发展,这些都值得做重要的新闻综合报道。 主持人和编辑说得对,新闻工作者并没有责任来塑造世界,但是他们有责任影响我们的态度。我们认为自己是怎样的,那我们就是怎样的。我们只能实现那些我们自己敢于设想的目标。新闻工作者为我们提供我们对自身以及这个世界认知的写照——这种写照最好是逼真的肖像,而不是扭曲的漫画像。因为我们就是根据这一写照来做决定,筹划未来的。 按照华特.里普曼的说法,新闻记者是大众的哲学家。他曾经写道?“后天习得的文化并非由基因遗传,美好社会的甜美的生活虽然可得,但却不是一旦拥有就永远不失去。如果美好生活中的智慧没有被传下来,所得一切也将化为乌有。” 有了对美好社会中美好生活的准确报道,我们可以采用伯纳德.德.查维斯建议我们的利

Unit One Hit the nail on the head恰到好处 你见过一个笨手笨脚的男人往箱子上钉钉子吗?只见他左敲敲,右敲敲,说不准还会将整个钉子锤翻,结果敲来敲去到头来只敲进了半截。而娴熟的木匠就不这么干。他每敲一下都会坚实巧妙地正对着钉头落下去,一钉到底。语言也是如此。一位优秀的艺术家谴词造句上力求准确而有力地表达自己的观点。差不多的词,不准确的短语,摸棱两可的表达,含糊不清的修饰,都无法使一位追求纯真英语的作家满意。他会一直思考,直至找到那个能准确表达他的意思的词。 法国人有一个很贴切的短语来表达这样一个意思,即“le mot juste”, 恰到好处的词。有很多关于精益求精的作家的名人轶事,比如福楼拜常花几天的时间力求使一两个句子在表达上准确无误。在浩瀚的词海中,词与词之间有着微妙的区别,要找到能恰如其分表达我们意思的词绝非易事。这不仅仅是扎实的语言功底和相当大的词汇量的问题,还需要人们绞尽脑汁,要观察敏锐。选词是认识过程的一个步骤,也是详细描述我们的思想感情并表达出来使自己以及听众和读者深刻理解的一个环节。有人说:“在我思想未成文之前,我怎么知道自己的想法?”这听起来似乎很离谱,但它确实很有道理。 寻找恰如其分的词的确是件不容易的事。一旦找到了那个词,我们就会感到很欣慰:辛劳得到了回报。准确地用语言有助于我们深入了解我们描述的事物。例如,当有人问你:“某某是怎么样的人?”你回答说:“恩,我想他是个不错的家伙,但他非常……”接着你犹豫了,试图找到一个词或短语来说明他到底讨厌在哪里。当你找到一个恰当的短语的时候,你发觉自己对他的看法更清楚,也更精确了。 一些英语词汇词根相同而意义却截然不同。例如human 和humane,二者的词根相同,词义也相关,但用法完全不同。“human action (人类行为)”和“humane action ( 人道行为)”完全是两码事。我们不能说“人道权力宣言”,而是说“人权宣言”。有一种屠杀工具叫“humane killer ( 麻醉屠宰机),而不是human killer ( 杀人机器)。 语言中的坏手艺的例子在我们身边随处可见。有人邀请一名学生去吃饭,他写信给予回复。请看他的信是这样结尾的:“我将很高兴赴约并满怀不安(anxiety )期待着那个日子的到来。”“Anxiety”含有烦恼和恐惧的意味。作者想表达的很可能是一种翘首期盼的心情。“Anxiety”跟热切期盼有一定的关联,但在这个场合是不能等同的。 乌干达一政党领袖给新闻界的一封信中有一句这样写道: 让我们打破这自私、投机、怯懦和无知充斥的乌干达,代之以真理,刚毅,坚定和奇异的精神。 这一激动人心的呼吁被最后一个词“奇异(singularity)”的误用破坏掉了。我猜想作者真正要表达的意思是思想的专一,即抱定一个信念永不改变,咬定青山不放松,不被次要的目的干扰。而singularity 指的是古怪,特性,是将一个人从众多人中区分出来的那种东西。 即使没有出现词语误用,这词仍可能不是符合作者意图的恰如其分的词。一名记者在一篇有关圣诞节的社论中这样引出狄更斯的话: 任何有关圣诞节的想法和文字已经被禁锢(imprisoned )在这句话中……“Imprisonment”暗示着强迫,威逼,这么一来似乎意思是有悖其初衷的。用“包含(contained )”或“归结(summed up )”就要好些。“概括(epitomized)”也行,尽管听起来有点僵硬。稍微再用点心我们就能准确地找到“mot juste (恰倒好处的词) ”,那就是“distilled”.它比包含和归结语气更强。“Distillation (提炼)”意味得到本质(essence)的东西。因此我们可以进一步把这个句子修改为: 所有有关圣诞节的想法和文字的精华都被提炼到这句话之中。 英语词汇丰富,运用灵活。一个意思有很多种表达方式。但是无论意思上如何相近的词总是存在着些许区别。作为学生就要敏感地意识到这些区别。通过查字典,尤其是通过阅读,

商务英语阅读教程——参考译文

参考译文 Unit 1 参考译文 国际商务的范围 国际商务是指任何类型的跨国商务活动。它可以分为4种类型: 对外贸易、服务贸易、有价证券投资和直接投资。在对外贸易中,国与国之间从事有形货物或商品的进出口业务。进出口贸易构成了世界上大多数国家最基本的国际商务活动。除货物和商品进出口贸易外,国家之间还进行服务贸易,如保险、金融、饭店、咨询、旅游及运输。跨国公司就因在别国提供服务而得到报酬。 国际有价证券投资指在别国进行的金融投资。投资者购买企业股票和长期债券,无非是为了谋求投资回报。有价证券投资者的目标不是控制一个企业,他们随时可按市场行情兑现他们所投的资金。海外直接投资是指在国外建厂或建立销售网络。投资者可购买外国公司现有的全部或部分资产,以控制或部分控制该公司的销售、生产、科研和发展。 从历史的角度来看,国际商务并非新鲜事物。它已有上千年的历史,尽管其形式、方法及重要性在不断演变。在古代,希腊人就在地中海地区从事贸易活动。在历史的长河中,随着复杂的商务技巧不断出现,商业持续不断的发展,从而促进了货物、资源、资金在国家间的流动。工业革命提供了大规模生产方法和大规模市场,从而进一步促进了国际商务的发展。随着工业化水平的提高,对供给、原料、劳动力和运输的需求也日益增大。 20 世纪以来,事实证明,广泛的商务关系覆盖全球。由于商务实体越来越认识到它们的市场是全球性的,而不仅仅在国内,所以产品、资本和人员比以往任何时候都更紧密地联系在一起。随着商务活动的范围跨出国界,银行和金融机构接踵而至,以满足商务活动为世界性的投资和经营所需要的资金。金融市场之间的联系也变得非常纷繁复杂。美国股市的走向和变化会直接影响到世界上其他地区的产权投资市场。 如今,只有目光短浅的商人才会相信,一个企业在本国市场范围内完全可以实现发展和繁荣。国内商界起码必须认识到市场竞争的国际根源,因为竞争的根源一直存在,并且日益成为国内商界的威胁。在世界市场和经济的动态中,这些变化的根源就是世界范围寻求的国际商务活动。 Unit 2 参考译文 维萨卡在中国的发展史 15 年前,中国没有一个人持有维萨卡。今天,中国有三千多万人持有维萨卡。 1993 年我们率先成立了维萨卡北京办事处。此后,我们与中国的金卡工程和其他机构合作,帮助改进中国的银行卡支付系统。为了建设中国第一个电子支付网络,维萨卡国际组织在其运行、构架、技术设备等方面提供了必要的支持和建议,我们对此感到尤为自豪。

第1单元避免两词铭记两词 在生活中,没有什么比顿悟更令人激动和兴奋的,它可以改变一个人——不仅仅是改变,而且变得更好。当然,这种顿悟是很罕见的,但仍然可以发生在我们所有人身上。它有时来自一本书,一个说教或一行诗歌,有时也来自一个朋友。 在曼哈顿一个寒冷的冬天的下午,我坐在一个法国小餐馆,倍感失落和压抑。因为几次误算,在我生命中一个至关重要的项目就这样落空了。就因为这样,甚至连期望看到一个老朋友(我常常私下亲切的想到的一个老人)的情形都不像以前那样令我兴奋。我坐在桌边,皱起眉头看着色彩多样的桌布,清醒的嚼着苦涩的食物。 他穿过街道,裹着旧棉袄,一顶帽子从光头打下来,看上去不像是一个有名的精神病医生,倒像是一个精力充沛的侏儒。他的办公室在附近到处都有,我知道他刚刚离开他最后一个病人。他接近80岁,但仍然扛着一个装着满满文件的公文包,工作起来仍然像一个大公司的主管,无论何时有空,他都仍然爱去高尔夫球场。 当他走过来坐我旁边时,服务员早已把他总是要喝的啤酒端了过来,我已经几个月没有见他了,但他似乎还是老样子。没有任何寒暄,他就问我“怎么了,年轻人?” 我已经不再对他的样子感到奇怪,所以我详细地把烦恼告诉他。带着一丝忧伤的自豪。我尽量说出实情,除了我自己,我并没有因为失望而责备任何人。我分析了整件事情,但所有负面评价以及错误仍然继续。我讲了约有十五分钟,这期间老人只是默默的喝着啤酒。我讲完后,他取下眼镜说:“到我的办公室去。”“到你的办公室你忘了带什么了吗”他和蔼的说“不是,我想看看你对某些事情的反应,仅此而已。” 外面开始下起小雨,但他的办公室很温暖,舒服,亲切:放满书的书架靠着墙壁,长皮沙发,弗洛伊德的亲笔签名照,还有墙边放着的录音笔。他的秘书回家了,只有我们在那里。老人从纸盒里拿出一盘磁带放进录音笔,然后说:“这里有到我这来求助的三个人的简单录音,当然,这没有说明具体是哪三个人。我想让你听听,看你是否能找出双字词的短语,这里是在三个案例中共有的。”他笑道:“不要这么困扰,我有我的目的。” 对我来说,录音中三个主人共有的东西不是什么快乐的东西。首先讲话的是一个男人,他在生意中经历了一些损失或失败,他指责自己没有辛勤工作,也没有远见。接下来说话的是一个女人,她还没有结婚,因为对她寡妇母亲的强烈的责任意思,她伤心的回忆了所有擦肩而过的婚姻机遇。第三个说话的是一位母亲,她十多岁的儿子在警察局有麻烦,她总是不停地责备自己。 老人关掉收音机,侧身坐到椅子上:“在这些录音中,有一个短语像病毒一样的出现了六次。你注意到了吗没有噢,这可能是因为几分钟前你在餐馆说过了三次。”他拿起磁带盒扔给我。“正好在标签上有那两个伤心的词语。”我向下一看,那里有两个清晰的红色的印字:如果。 “你受惊了吗?”老人说:“你能想象我坐在这把椅子上以这两个词开头的话有多少次了吗?他们总是对我说:如果换一种方法做——或根本不去做。(如果我没发脾气、没有做那虚伪的事、没有说那愚蠢的谎言。如果我聪明点,或更无私点,或更自控点。)直到我打断说话他们才会停止。有时我让他们听你刚说过的录音。我对他们说(如果你停止说如果,我们就已取得进展了。)” 老人伸出双脚,说:“问题是,‘如果’并没有改变任何东西。它使那人面对错误——后退而非前进,那样只是在浪费时间。最后,要是你让它成为一个习惯,它就会变成真的障碍,变成你不再去做尝试的借口了。” “现在回到你的情况:你的计划没成功,为什么?因为你犯了某种错误。唔,这个没关系,毕竟错误谁都会犯,我们也从中学到东西。但是,当你告诉我那些东西时却悔恨这个, 后悔那个的时候,你还没有从错误中学到什么。” “你怎么知道呢?”我用一种辩驳的语气问道。 “因为你还没有从过去中走出来。你根本没提及到未来。在某种程度上——老实说,——现在你仍沉溺于过去。我们

新编国际商务英语阅读教程译文 第一单元国际贸易理论 重商主义 世界上第一个国际贸易理论——重商主义,产生于16世纪中期。重商主义宣 称金银是一国财富的支柱,是繁荣商业所不可或缺的。当时,金银是国家间的贸易 货币,出口国赚取金银,同样从他国进口货物,导致金银的外流。重商主义认为出 口大于进口从而保持贸易顺差是一国的根本利益。这样,一国积累金银,最终使国 家财富增加,国家地位得以提升。正如1930年,英国重商主义学者托马斯?孟所说: 增加一国财富的最普遍的做法是对外贸易,而且我们必须遵守这样的规则:每 年出口产品的价值要大于进口产品的价值。 遵循这一说法,重商主义提倡政府干涉,以确保贸易顺差。重商主义认为大量 的贸易额并没有什么益处。他们建议颁布政策以扩大出口,限制进口。具体做法可 以是对进口施加关税和对配额进行限制,对出口则给予补贴。 1752年古典经济学 家大卫?休谟指出了重商主义学说的缺陷。据休谟所说,如果英国对法国贸易顺差(即出口大于进口),相应的金银的流入会导致英国国内货币供应充足,从而产生通 货膨胀。而法国会因为金银的外流产生相反的效应——通货紧缩,价格降低。英法 之间相对价格的变化将促使法国的进口商购买的英国货物数量减少(因为英国货物 变得昂贵),英国的进口商将购买更多法国的货物(因为法国货物价格降低)。结 果,英国贸易收支状况不断恶化,法国贸易收支逐步得到改善,这种情况一直持续 到英国的顺差被抵消。因此,休谟认为,长期来看,没有国家能够如重商主义者所 想象的那样保持贸易顺差。 除了休谟指出的缺陷之外,重商主义的另一缺限在于其视国际贸易为零和博弈(零和博弈是指一国得益必导致另一国受损)。亚当?斯密和大卫?李嘉图指出了重商
