Unit Two

1

．

Teachers and professors too often are portrayed as idealists living in an ivory

tower who are out of touch with real world. They are accused of emphasizing

academic skills or studies that do not relate directly to helping a person move closer

to a prospective job or career.

老师、教授常被描述成生活在象牙塔中的理想主义者，他们脱离实际，人们指责他们

< br>只强调学力和学业，而这些对帮助学生将来求职或就业并无直接关系。

2

．

The justification for a university is that it preserves the connection between

knowledge and the zest of life, by uniting the young and the old in the imaginative

consideration of learning.

大学之所以存在，是因为它在人们富于想象力的学习中成为老少两代人之间的纽带，

因而保持了知识和生活热情之间的联系。

3

．

We must make each student begin to see his or her place as a small, but vital,

link in a continuous chain of humanity that began thousands of years ago and

stretches on well into the future.

我们必须使每个学生开始明白：他

/

她在人类连绵不断 的链条上只是其中的一环，这一

环虽小，却至关重要。这链条的前面有数千年的历史，并 要继续向无限的未来延伸下

去。

4

．

Life does not consist of taking courses in small segments. A productive life

consists of finding huge tasks and mastering them with whatever tools of intelligence

and energy we have. We are going to turn you loose on some huge tasks. Let

’

s see

what you can do with them.

人生（的意义）不在于支离破碎地学习一些课程；充实的人生 应该是发现艰巨（

5

．

Let us create environments where our students can grow and emerge as creative

and thinking persons ---individuals who know history, philosophy, religion, literature,

“

liberalizing arts

”

, the studies that liberate the mind

and send it questing on strange and alluring adventures.

让我们为学生营造环境，使他 们成长并出落成为有创造性、有思想的人，成为一群懂

历史、哲学、宗教、文学等、有个 性的个体。毕竟，这些都是“人文研究学科（

/

人性

化的 学科）”，学习它们可以解放思想，有助于学生对陌生且引人入胜的事物的探求。

6

liberal arts in this growing age of technology.

如果我们可以接受乌帕姆所讲的话，我

们就有 义务帮助学生面对他们毕业后所接触的真实的世界。那么在这个技术日益发展

Unit Three

1. Indeed, glo

balization became the “grand strategy” of the Clinton administration,

which envisioned the U.S. elite being the primus inter pares -- first among equals ---

of a global coalition leading the way to the new, benign world order. < /p>

的确，全球化成为克林顿政府的“大战略”，视美国精英为能建立新的良性世界秩序

的全球联盟中的首席—同等者之首。

2. “Trade liberalization has stalled, aid is less coherent than it should be, and the

next financial conflagration will be managed by an injured fireman.”

“贸易自由化陷入停顿，援助也未按计划贯穿始终，扑救下次金融大火的将是一位自

身 负伤的消防员。”

3. There has been too much dissonance between the promise of globalization and

free trade and the actual results of neoliberal policies, which have been more poverty,

inequality, and stagnation.

全球化和自由贸易许诺的美好前景与新自由主义贸易政策的 实际结果有着太多的不一

致，新自由主义贸易政策带来的是加倍的贫困、更高程度的不平 等和更严重的经济停

滞。

4. These agreements are in many ways more dangerous than the multilateral

negotiations at the WTO since they often require greater concessions in terms of

market access and tighter enforcement of intellectual property rights.

这些协议常要求就市场准入做出更大的让步、对知识产权实施更严格的保护，因此在

许多方面比世贸组织的多边谈判更加危险

.

n years since it was trumpeted as the wave of the future, globalization seems

to have been a “brave new phase” of the capitalist adventure than a desperate effort

by global capital to escape the stagnation and disequilibria overtaking the global

economy in the 1970s and 1980s. The collapse of the centralized socialist regimes in

Central and Eastern Europe deflected people’s attention from this reality in the early

1990s.

自从全球化被鼓吹为大势所趋以来，时间已经 过去了十五个年头。全球化似乎并不是

资本家探索开拓的“大胆的新阶段”，更多的倒是 全球资本为摆脱上世纪七八十年代

席卷全球经济的经济发展的停滞和不均衡所做的孤注一 掷的努力。二十世纪九十年代

早期中东欧中央集权的社会主义国家的解体把人们的注意力 从这一事实上转移开去。

6. The urgent task is not to steer corporate-

driven globalization in a “social

democratic” direction but to manage its retreat so that it

does not bring about the

same chaos and runaway conflicts that marked its demise in that earlier era.

迫切的任务并非将受公司驱动的全球化转为“社会民主”方向，而是要妥善应付它的

衰 退趋势，使其不再引起与其早期消亡标志相同的混乱和失控的冲突。

Unit Four

1

、

We should be concerned, but if the administration, the Federal Reserve and the

Congress act responsibly, the dollar should be near its bottom and begin to rise

against most foreign currencies.

我们该担心。但如果政府、美联储和国会 采取负责任的行动，美元应已接近价格谷底

且对大多数外币开始升值。

2

、

Many believe---and some evidently hope---that the greenback might be on its

way out as an international currency. Worrying parallels are seen between the dollar

’

s recent fall and the decline of sterling as a reserve currency half a century ago.

许多人相信——部分人显然希望——美元作为国际货币会 逐步退出历史舞台。人们从

美元近期的走弱和半个世纪前英镑作为国际储备货币的走弱之 间看到了同样令人担忧

的事情。

3

、

The dollar has weathered these storms. But now it faces a nasty squall that

combines both cyclical and structural blasts. Its decline in the past five years has

imposed a huge capital loss on foreign-exchange reserves. If this becomes too

painful, central banks may be tempted to cut their losses and dump their dollars,

causing a slump in the currency’s value.

美元安然度过了这三次风暴。然而，美元当下面临的强 大风暴却是众多周期性气流和

结构性气流的结合体。过去

5

年之中，美元的下跌令全球外汇储备遭受了巨大的资本

损失。如果这种损失（造成的痛 苦）过于严重，各国央行可能会考虑止损、抛售美元，

这势必会导致美元暴跌。

4

、

Reserves are held to buttress confidence in a country

’

s own currency, not as a

float for global trading. As a backstop, reserves need to be easily convertible ( so

they can be used as an emergency source of liquidity ) and a good store of value.

各国持有外汇储备是为了加强对本币的信心，而不是为了将其作为外贸支付手段。因

此，作为应急预防措施，储备货币应易于兑换（以便在紧急情况下提供流动资金），

并应具备良好的保值能力。

5

、

Despite the anxiety and gloom, some straws in the wind suggest that the dollar

’

s decline may soon slow. In the past few weeks it has regained groung against a

handful of important currencies, including the pound and the Australian dollar.

尽管 人们焦虑万分，忧心忡忡，但有迹象表明，美元的跌势或许很快就会减缓。在过

去几周中 ，在和包括英镑和澳元在内的几种主要货币的兑换中，美元已经回稳获利。

（已重新取得 优势地位）

6

、

On the eve of the First World War, when Britain was the greatest trading power,

the pound

’

s share in official currency reserves was all but matched by the

combined share of the French franc and German mark. After the war a three-way

split was maintained, with the dollar replacing the mark.

一战爆发前夜，英国是头号贸易强国，英 镑在官方外汇储备中的份额则与法国法郎、

德国马克的份额之和大致相当。战后全球储备 依然维持了三分天下的局面，只是美元

取代了马克的地位。

Unit Five

1. In retrospect, he was spot on the mark about the political and economic

developments of the twentieth century, and up to now he seems to have been

prescient about the development of the technologies that will shape the next one.

回想起来，他对

20

世纪政治、经济发展方面的评价的确非常中肯，而 且迄今为止，他

对于科技发展将会影响下一个世纪的看法是具有先见之明的。

2. But there's no question that the proportion of English will remain

disproportionately high for some time to come, if only because use of the Web is still

growing faster in the English-speaking world than in most other language

communities

—

in the past two years, the number of Internet hosts in English-

speaking countries has increased by about 450 percent, against 420 percent in Japan,

375 percent in the French-speaking world, and 250 percent in the German-speaking

world.

然而毫无疑问的是， 在接下来的一段时间里，（与其他语言相比）英语的使用

率依然极高，如果仅仅是因为在 英语世界里网络的使用的增长仍然快于其他语言社区

——

在过去的两年里，英语国家里的联网主机数量增加 了

450%

，而在日本增加了

420%

， 在法语国家里增加了

375%

，在德语国家里增加了

250%

。

3. This is not to say that the Internet won't have important linguistic effects.

Ultimately it could be comparable to the importance of print, which first created

standardized national languages and then helped to create a sense of national

community around them. The mistake is to assume that the effects will be

measurable in raw percentages of global language use.

这并不是说互联网对语言使用没有重要影响。它最终将 可以与出版业相媲美。出版业

首先创造出了标准的民族语言，然后又帮助创造出了围绕这 些语言的民族社会感。错

误在于认为在全球性语言使用上语言的这种作用可以以粗略的百 分比来衡量。

4. You may have the feeling that this maneuver would not allay the anxieties of

speakers of other languages, who not surprisingly view the prospect of an English-

dominated Web with a certain alarm.
