Translation B
人们经常会认为，
一个人收不收高等教育在工作能力上会有天壤之别。
其实，
这不能一 概而
论。
道理很简单，
书本并非传授知识的唯一途径。
历史上就有许多大人物 从来没有进过大学
之门。
高等落榜显然不是件愉快事，
但是，
只要你能够以积 极态度接受这个失败，
那么，

这
种失败定会有利于你以其他方式造就自己。
重要的是要防止就此认为自己没有出息而而自暴
自弃。

People
tend
to
think
that
university
education
makes
a
world
of
difference
in
a
person’s ability. This belief, however, cannot be reasonably applied to all the cases,
quite simply because books are not the only approach to knowledge. History has seen
many
great
people
without
university
education
at
all.
Obviously,
failure
in
the
national
matriculation
is
never
pleasurable,
but
accepted
positively,
it
will
surely
contribute to your personal development in some other ways. It is important to resist
the natural impulse to regard yourself as a failure.

一间布臵典雅的办公室一定会人个好印象。< br>人们往往花费许多钱去装潢办公室，

不理想。其实，

劝你去请教在这方面在行的人，这对于天天在 办公室里接待客人和洽谈生意的人尤为重要。

An
office
decorated
with
much
taste
is
bound to
create
a
favourable

decorating their offices,
but the result can be unsatisfactory. As a matter of fact, the highest- priced or fanciest
is not necessarily the best for your office. If
your taste in room decoration is rather
poor,
I recommend that you seek the advice of a good decorator. This
is especially
important
for those who receive their
guests or
do business
with their customers in
their offices on a daily basis.

在世界观方面也往往会存在很大的不
同。有时侯会出现这种情况，两代人同住一套房，

不同。
出现这种种冲突的根本原因之一，
是 老一代人认为是他们以毕生精力创造了这个世界，
自然就把他归属于他们自己；而年轻人没有过去这个包 袱，所以他们思想解放，行为洒脱，
确信他们有权利，
有能力去创造一个新世界，
不管 怎么说，

相互合作，
世界一定会更美好。

old
in
their
world
outlooks.

some
cases,
two
generations
can
share a house, but their ways of thinking and behaving are worlds apart. One of the
basic reasons for this clash is that the older generation believe that it is they who have
built up this present world all their lives and they are conditioned to identify the world

as belonging to them: whereas the rising generation, free from the burden of the past,
appreciate
fresh
thinking
and
unstrained
behaviour,
feeling
sure
that
they
have
the
right to create a new world and confident that they can make it, One thing is for sure,
though,--communication and cooperation between the two generations will make the
world a better place for everybody.
