《青少年哪吒》不仅有个极为精彩的标题,也标志着现代电影史上一段伟大历程的开始。该片尽管在全球都拥有狂热拥趸,但却从未在美国正式发行。它是蔡明亮导演的首部电影,他后来的其他作品令他跻身较为年长的侯孝贤、杨德昌等人之列,共同成为20世纪90年代台湾新浪潮的领军人物(周五他的回顾展映将于皇后区阿斯托利亚电影博物馆上映)。
Made in 1992, “Rebels” feels anything but dated. Youthful disaffection never gets old, and the four alienated 20-ish Taipei residents who drift through Mr. Tsai’s artfully angled frames bear an evident kinship to the characters in Jean-Luc Godard’s “Band of Outsiders,” Harmony Korine’s “Spring Breakers” and a hundred other movies produced since World War II. They ride around the city on motorbikes, stopping to smoke cigarettes and hang out in video arcades, all-night restaurants and love hotels. They are bored, restless, antisocial and vaguely in search of some kind of intensity.
《青少年哪吒》摄于1992年,却并不觉得过时。年轻人的不满情绪永远不会老,四个二十多岁、不合群的台北人在蔡明亮精心设计、角度独特的画面中飘荡,与让-吕科·戈达尔(Jean-Luc Godard)的《法外之徒》(Band of Outsiders)与哈莫尼·科林(Harmony Korine)的《春假》(Harmony Korine)等百余部“二战”后的影片显然具备亲缘关系。他们骑着摩托车环游城市、停下来抽烟,流连于录像厅、通宵饭馆和色情小旅馆。他们烦闷不安、反社会、懵懂地寻找着某种激情。
In the films that immediately followed — “Vive L’Amour,” “The River” and “The Hole” — Mr. Tsai would enrich this stark, sad vision of life in Taipei and refine his melancholy, absurdist style. Although “Rebels” tells a slighter, somewhat more conventional story than those movies, it could hardly be mistaken for anyone else’s work. The camera movements are minimal and precise, turning what might seem like ordinary shots into sly jokes. There is water everywhere — torrential downpours sweeping the streets and a mysterious flood in a main character’s apartment.
这部影片后,蔡明亮很快推出了其他作品:《爱情万岁》、《河流》和《洞》,在这些续作之中,他进一步描述了荒芜悲哀的台北生活,奠定了自己忧郁、荒诞的风格。与他的其他作品相比,《青少年哪吒》讲述了一个更微小、某种程度上更加传统的故事,但它也同样有着蔡明亮独特的痕迹。镜头运动细微而精准,让本来可能是平平无奇的镜头变成狡黠的玩笑。到处都是水——湍流般的倾盆大雨横扫街道,一位主角的公寓里出现神秘的洪水。
Above all, there are performers who would become fixtures of this director’s imaginative universe. Chief among them is Lee Kang-sheng, a slender, nearly silent man with a Keatonesque deadpan who has appeared in all 10 of Mr. Tsai’s features so far. Here he plays Hsiao-kang, an unhappy student living with his parents (Lu Yi-ching and Miao Tien) and halfheartedly attending classes. Friendless and celibate, he develops an obsession with Ah-tze (Chen Chao-jung, a petty criminal who specializes in robbing pay phones and vending machines).
最重要的是,这部影片中的演员们后来都成了蔡明亮幻想世界中的重要组成部分。其中最主要的就是纤瘦沉默的李康生,他如同巴斯特·基顿一般面无表情,蔡明亮迄今执导的10部电影长片中都有他的出现。在这部影片中,他饰演小康,一个不快乐的学生,与父母(陆奕静与苗天饰)住在一起,每天无精打采地去上学。他没有朋友,也没有恋人,后来迷上了相貌英俊、专门洗劫收费电话亭与自动售卖机的罪犯阿泽(陈昭荣饰)。
Our attention swings between these two young men. Ah-tze periodically ditches his best friend and partner in crime (Jen Chang-bin) to pursue a desultory romance with Ah-kuei (Wang Yu-wen), a comparatively cheerful young woman who works in a roller disco and has trouble holding her liquor. The strands of the plot converge at the end in a flurry of sex, vandalism and violence.
我们的视线在这两个年轻人之间摇摆。阿泽有时会摆脱自己的好朋友兼犯罪同伙(任长彬饰),同女友阿桂(王渝文饰)有一搭没一搭地谈着恋爱,阿桂是个相对活泼一点的女孩,在迪斯科旱冰舞厅工作,时常酗酒。各种情节的分支最后汇聚在一场慌乱的性爱、无目的的破坏与暴力之中。
The plot really isn’t the point, though. Mr. Tsai typically uses narrative as a tool for exploring the moods and meanings that link his characters with one another and with the city that awakens, contains and frustrates their desires. They seem very much stuck in their world, but because that world is the creation of a wildly original artist coming into his own, it also feels alive with possibility.a
不过情节并不重要。蔡明亮通常使用叙事作为工具,探索维系着片中角色们之间,乃至他们与这座城市之间关系的情绪与意义,这座城市唤醒并包容了他们的欲望,却又令他们备感挫折。他们仿佛被困在自己的世界,但正因为这个世界是一个极具独创性的艺术家在头脑中建构出来的,因此又充满了各种可能性。

一、及时行乐,让你的生命超越凡俗
《船长,我的船长》Oh ,captain ,my captain!
《劝少年们珍惜时光》及时采撷你的花蕾/旧时光一去不回/今天尚在微笑的花朵/明天变得风中枯萎(丁尼生)
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may/Old time is still a-flying/And this same flowers that smiles today/Tomorrow will be dying
因为信不信由你,这个房间里的每个人,总有一天都要停止呼吸,僵冷,死亡。我要你们向前到这儿来,细细玩味过去的面孔,你们经过这儿无数次,但从未真正看过他们,和你的差异并不大,对吧?同样的发型,和你们一样精力旺盛,和你们一样不可一世,世界都在他们的掌握之中,他们认为注定要成就大事,和大多数的你们一样,他们的双眼充满了希望,和你们一样。他们是否虚度时光,到最后一无所成?因为各位所见到的……这些男孩现在都已化为尘土了,如果你们仔细倾听,便能听见他们在低声耳语,附耳过去,仔细听,听见了?CARPE..。听见了吗?CARPE... CARPE DIEM 及时行乐,孩子们,让你的生命超越凡俗。
Becuase believe or not, each one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold and die. I'd like you to step forward of you and peruse some of the faces from the past. They're not that different from you , are they? Same haircuts.
Full of hormones. Just like you. Invincible just like you fell. The world is their oyster. They belive they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives evenone iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentelman, these boys are now fertilising daffodils.
But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it ? Carpe...hear it?...Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day, boys, make your lives extrordinary。
二、诗歌、美丽、浪漫、爱情,才是我们活着的意义。
《英语诗歌五百年》序言:要完全理解诗歌,我们首先必须了解它的格调、韵律、修辞手法,然后提两个问题:第一,诗主题如何艺术地实现;第二,诗主题的重要性。
To fully understand poetry, we must first be fluent with its meter, rhyme and figures of speech, then ask two questions: 1) How artfully has the objective of the poem been rendered and 2) How important is that objective?
我们不是在接水管。We're not laying pipe。
惟有在梦中,人们才是真正自由的。Only in their dreams can men be truly free。
学会自己思考,学会欣赏文学和语言。不管别人怎么说,文学和语言的确能改变世界。
Learn to think for yourselves again. No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world。
我们读诗、写诗并不是因为它们好玩,而是因为我们是人类的一分子,而人类是充满激情的。没错,医学、法律、商业、工程,这些都是崇高的追求,足以支撑人的一生。但诗歌、美丽、浪漫、爱情,这些才是我们活着的意义。
We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering -- these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love -- these are what we stay alive for。
(梭罗)死亡诗人致力于吸取生命的精华。
The Dead Poets was dedicated to "sucking the marrow out of life"。
我们是一群浪漫主义者。我们不仅仅是念诗,诗从我们舌间滑落,就像蜜糖。情绪高涨,女人亢奋,灵魂驰骋。
We weren't a Greek organization. We were Romantics. We didn't just read poetry, we let it drip from our tongues like honey. Spirits soared, women swooned and gods were created。
(梭罗)我步入丛林/因为我希望生活得有意义/我希望活得深刻/吸取生命中所有的精华/把非生命的一切都击溃/以免当我生命终结/发现自己从没有活过
I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life.To put to rout all that was not life, and not, when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived。
(丁尼生)来吧,我的朋友/寻找更新世界尚为时不晚/我决心已定,要驶过夕阳尽头/尽管我们不再有昔日的伟力,可以震天撼地/我们仍有着,同样的英雄的心/时间和命运,使它衰老/但坚强意志仍在/让我们去奋斗,去探索,去发现/永不屈服
(Alfred Lord Tennyson)Come my friends, 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset. And though we are not now that strength which in old days Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;-- One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield。
然后我有了信仰/然后我有了想象/我被他们沉迷的嘲笑所感染/然后我看见刚果河/在黑土地上流过/在森林中划下一道金色的沟壑(语言的节奏感)
Then I had religion, then I had a vision. I could not turn from their revel in derision. Then I saw the Congo creeping through the black, cutting through the forest with a golden track。
三、要敢于开拓自己的天地
语言的目的只有一个:交流(学生)追求女人(老师)
language was developed for one endeavor, and that is?
To communicate...No,to woo women。
站上讲台,用不同的眼光来看待事物。
we must constantly look at things in a different way。
一旦觉得自己懂得,就必须换一种角度来看。这可能显得有些荒.唐,或者愚蠢,但必须试一下。同样读书的时候,不要只想作者怎么看,想想你自己怎么看。
Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in another way. Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try! Now, when you read, don't just consider what the author thinks. Consider what you think。
你们必须努力寻找自己的声音,因为你越迟开始寻找,找到的可能性就越小。
Boys, you must strive to find your own voice. Because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all。
梭罗说“大多数人都生活在平静的绝望中”。别陷入这种境地,冲出来。别像老鼠逃跑似的,看看你的周围,要敢于开拓自己的天地。
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation。(Thoreau)Don't be resigned to that. Break out! Don't just walk off the edge like lemmings。
四、做一个真正的上帝!
对我来说,运动只是一种让其他人把我们推向极致的机会。
For me, sport is actually a chance for us to have other human beings push us to excel。
与逆境不屈抗争,以无畏的气势面对敌人。
Oh to struggle against great odds. To meet enemies undaunted。
做一个世界的水手,游遍所有的港口。
To be a sailor of the world, bound for all ports。#p#副标题#e#
我要做生活的主宰,而不是奴隶。
Oh, I live to be the ruler of life, not a slave。
走上绞刑台,面对行刑的枪口,我息安之如泰。
To mount the scaffolds. To advance to the muzzle of guns with perfect nonchalance。
舞蹈、鼓掌、兴奋、欢叫、跳跃、飘飘荡荡、滚滚向前
To dance, clap hands, exalt, shout, skip, roll on, float on。
哦,让生活从此变成一首欢乐的诗。
Oh, to have life henceforth the poem of new joys。
做一个真正的上帝!
To indeed be a god!
五、主题简单无妨,只是不要太俗套
1。爱(诗歌和生活的重要主题)
我在她微笑中看到了甜蜜/她的眼睛闪烁着光芒/但生活如此复杂/我已满意/只要知道/只要知道/她还活着
I see a sweetness in her smile. Blight light shines from her eyes. But life is complete; contentment is mine, Just knowing that... just knowing that she's alive。
2。主题简单无妨,只是不要太俗套
Sometimes the most beautiful poetry can be about simple things. Just don't let your poems be ordinary。
3。惠特曼“站在世界屋脊上,我喊出我野性的狂叫”I sound my barbaric yawp over the rooftops of the world。
一个牙齿流汗的疯子a sweaty-toothed madman。
我闭上眼睛,他的形象在我眼前晃悠I close my eyes. this image floats beside me。
一个牙齿流汗的疯子,瞪得我心怦怦直跳A sweaty-toothed madman with a stare that pounds my brain。
他伸出手,掐信我的脖子His hands reach out and choke me。
他一直在念叨真理all the time he's mumbling.Truth。
真理就像一床总让你双脚冰凉的毯子/你怎么扯,怎么拽,总也不够/踢也好,打也好,它总也盖不住我们/从我们哭着降生/到我们奄奄一息/它只会盖住你的脸/不管你如何痛苦/不管你如何痛苦/如何叫喊
Truth is like, like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold. You push it, stretch it, it'll never be enough. You kick at it, beat it, it'll never cover any of us. From the moment we enter crying to the moment we leave dying, it will just cover your face as you wail and cry and scream。
六、你们用不着表演,完全为你自己。
坚持与从俗不同的信仰的困难。
the difficulty in maintaining your own beliefs in the face of others。
我们都有一种被人接受的需要。但是你必须坚持自己的信仰是独特的是你自己的,哪怕别人认为它们很怪,或者很讨厌,哪怕一群人都说,那太差。
we all have a great need for acceptance. But you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own, even though others may think them odd or unpopular, even though the herd may go。
罗伯特·弗洛斯特:希望你们也找到自己的路,找到自己的步伐、步调,任何方向,任何东西都行,不管是自负也好,愚蠢也好,什么都行。
I want you to find your own walk right now. Your own way of striding, pacing. Any direction. Anything you want. Whether it's proud, whether it's silly, anything. Gentlemen, the courtyard is yours。
你们用不着表演,完全为你自己。You don't have to perform. Just make it for yourself。
要敢于逆流而上。Swim against the stream

下面是读文网小编整理的双语寓言故事:愚蠢的少年,欢迎大家阅读!
A gay young spark I knew, who happened from hisaunt great riches to inherit.
一个放荡的纨绔少年从他姑妈那里继承了一大笔遗产
He started squandering and squandered with suchspirit, that all his worldly wealth was I.O.U.
他开始大肆挥霍,直到所有的财富都成了欠条。
He had a fine fur coat, still new. It was winter at thetime, and old Jack Frost was in his prime.
他有一件上好的皮大衣,还是崭新的。当时正值严冬时节
One day a s wallow passed: what does our booby do. But pawn the fur as well!
有一天,天上飞过一只燕子。这个傻瓜做了什么?他把皮衣当掉了!
"Why, aren't we all aware, you'll never see a swallow in the air till spring insight!
“谁不知道只有到了春天,天空才会出现燕子呢,”浪子想,
So now,"thinks prodigal,"my fur is useless quite. Why wrap oneself in furs?
“所以,现在我的皮大衣没用了,为何还要紧裹着它呢?
It is now the first spring breezes. To Nature's waking realm bring everything that pleases, andto the silent North the banished Frost takes wing."
第一缕春风已经吹过,苏醒的大自然一切都令人心旷神怡,严冬也跑到寂静的北方了。”
Our friend is quick at reckoning. He only quite forgets—at least, until he sneezes, one swallowdoes not make the spring.
至少打喷嚏之前,这个少年很会盘算,只是他忘记了——一燕不成春。
And so it proves! The frosts return again. The carts go creaking through the crumbled snow,the chimneys puff their smoke, one very window pane, delightful fairy tracings show.
确实如此!寒冬又回来了!马车咯吱咯吱地穿过冰天雪地,烟囱冒着烟,玻璃上结满了形状各异的冰花。
Poor rake! His eyes with rheumy moisture flow; the little bird that spoke of summer days tofollow, lies frozen in the snow.
可怜的浪子,他感冒了,泪流不止,而那只代表夏季即将到来的燕子冻死在雪地里。
He stands beside the swallow. And shakes, and holds his breath, and mumbles through histeeth, "You villain, any how you'refinished too!
浪子站在燕子旁边,冻得发抖,他屏住呼吸,嘴里喃喃地道:“坏蛋!不管怎么说,你都完蛋了!
I thought that I could count on you! To pawn my fur just now—a pretty thing to do!"
我以为还能指望你呢!我刚刚把皮衣卖了——简直太糟糕了!”

《少年派的奇幻漂流》影片讲述的是少年派遇到一次海难,家人全部丧生,他与一只孟加拉虎在救生小船上漂流了227天,人与虎建立起一种奇特的关系,并最终共同战胜困境获得重生。2013年,该片在第85届奥斯卡奖颁奖礼上获得了包括最佳导演、最佳视觉效果在内的四项奖项。下面读文网小编为大家带来《少年派的奇幻漂流》经典英语台词,希望大家喜欢!
1、为了在水下取景,李安特意拉上自己的两个孩子一起学潜水,自己还考取了潜水执照。
2、为了拍摄该片,男主角苏拉·沙玛在台湾接受了高强度的特训,包括求生技巧、游泳以及平衡训练。透过严格的饮食控制与体能训练,苏拉从150磅重的瘦男生,变成167磅重的肌肉男。
3、苏拉·沙玛被选中时完全不会游泳。在接受特技指导查理克罗夫·威尔、特技演员卡麦隆·克罗夫威尔的严格训练之后,他成为了一名游泳健将。
4、在制作前期李安想要剧组亲身体验大海的威力,于是他和视角总监以及其他制作成员一起乘坐海岸救护队的快艇深入风暴,9尺高的海浪把坚实的快艇卷得四处飘摇。
5、在片中的飞鱼场景中,成千上万条鱼在海面飞梭。道具组为这场戏制作了许多橡胶飞鱼,拍摄时工作人员不停地往男主角苏拉身上和船上扔,而远景中密密麻麻的飞鱼则是用数字动画合成。
6、因为片中的”老虎“与男一号有近距离接触,真老虎无法满足拍摄需要,因而片中出现的老虎均由CG制作。

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
黄色的树林里分出两条路
And sorry I could not travel both
可惜我不能同时去涉足
And be one traveler, long I stood
我在那路口久久伫立
And looked down one as far as I could
我向着一条路极目望去
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
直到它消失在丛林深处
Then took the other, as just as fair,
但我却选择了另外一条路
And having perhaps the better claim,
它荒草萋萋,十分幽寂
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
显得更诱人,更美丽
Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,
很少留下旅人的足迹
And both that morning equally lay
那天清晨落叶满地
In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!
呵,留下一条路等改日再见
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

And that has made all the difference.
从此决定了我一生的道路。

From the window of my room, I could see a tall cotton-rose hibiscus. In spring, when green foliage was half hidden by mist, the tree looked very enchanting dotted with red blossom. This inspiring neighbor of mine often set my mind working. I gradually regarded it as my best friend.
从我的房间的窗子向外望去,可以看到一株高大的芙蓉树。春日里,芙蓉树在薄雾中若隐若现,红花点点,样子实在迷人。它总是赋予我灵感,让我思如泉涌。时间久了,我竟把这菱蓉视为知已了。
Nevertheless, when I opened the window one morning, to my amazement, the tree was almost bare beyond recognition as a result of the storm ravages the night before. Struck by the plight, I was seized with a sadness at the thought “all the blossom is doomed to fall”. I could not help sighing with emotion: the course of life never runs smooth, for there are so many ups and downs, twists and turns. The vicissitudes of my life saw my beloved friends parting one after another. Isn’t it similar to the tree shedding its flowers in the wind?
然而,一天清晨,当我推开窗子时,愕然发现前夜的一场风雨已将它摧残得落红满地。刹那间,我有一种"花开终有落"的悲凉感觉。这使我不由得发出一声慨叹:人生的旅途中,总是少不了种种羁绊,那些曲折的经历总会伴随着我们。曾经失去过的挚爱的朋友,生命的脆弱不正是像这随风而逝的花吗?
This event faded from my memory as time went by. One day after I came home from the countryside, I found the room stuffy and casually opened the window. Something outside caught my eye and dazzled me. It was a plum tree all scarlet with blossom set off beautifully by the sunset. The surprise discovery overwhelmed me with pleasure. I wondered why I had no idea of some unyielding life sprouting over the fallen petals when I was grieving for the hibiscus.
随着时间的流逝,我渐渐地把那天的感触淡忘了,一次出差回来,感到屋内的空气有些沉闷,于是我不经意的打开了窗,可就在那一瞬,我被眼前的景象惊呆了。窗外,一株李子树开花了,火红火红的花朵,满树都是。在夕阳的映衬下,分外美丽。这意外让我惊喜不已。没想到当初自己只顾悲伤,却没发现那凄凉的背后,竟存在着如此坚强的灵魂。
When the last withered petal dropped, all the joyful admiration for the hibiscus sank into oblivion as if nothing was left, until the landscape was again ablaze with the red plum blossom to remind people of life’s alternation and continuance. Can’t it be said that life is actually a symphony, a harmonious composition of loss and gain.
是啊,当芙蓉的最后一片花瓣凋落之时,人们以往对它的赞许都已成为过眼云烟。可如今,李子树却成长起来了,那火红的花儿正向人们昭示着生命的更迭与繁衍。谁能否认生命原本就是一场得失共存的交响音呢?
Standing by the window lost in thought for a long time, I realized that no scenery in the world remains unchanged. As long as you keep your heart basking in the sun, every dawn will present a fine prospect for you to unfold and the world will always be about new hopes.
我久久地伫立在窗前,深深感悟到,生命之中本没有一成不变的风景,只要你的心永远向着阳光,那么每一个清晨就会向你展现出一个等待着由你来开启的美景。不管你正经历着怎样的风雨,请相信,这个世界总会带给你新的希望。

英语散文以优美的语言美丽,给人以独特的阅读享受,是放松我们心情的阅读伴侣。下面读文网小编为大家带来优美散文阅读双语对照,供大家阅读欣赏!
John and Bobby joined a wholesale company togther just after graduation from college the same year. Both worked very hard. After several years, however, the boss promoted Bobby to the posotion of manager but John remained an ordinary employee. John could not take it anymore, tendered his resignation to the boss and complained the boss did not know how to delegate and did not value hard working staff, but only promoted those who flattered him.
约翰和博比同年大学毕业后,被同一家批发公司录用。他们二人工作都很努力。然而,几年后,老板提拔博比为部门经理,而约翰还是一名普通员工。约翰再也无法忍受,冲动之下写了一封辞职信,并抱怨老板不会用人,不重用那些敬业的员工,只提升那些奉承他的人。
The boss knew that John worked very hard for the years. He thought for a moment and said, "Thank you for your criticism, but I have a request. I hope you will do one more thing for our company before you leave. Perhaps you will change your mind and take back your resignation."
老板知道这几年约翰工作确实很努力。他想了一会儿说:“谢谢你对我的批评。但是我只有一个请求,我希望在你离开之前再为公司做一件事情。或许到时你会改变决定,收回辞呈。”
John agreed. The boss asked him to go and find out anyone selling watermelon in the market. John went and returned soon. He said he had found out a man selling watermelon. The boss asked how much per kg? John shook his head and went back to the market to ask and returned to inform the boss $1.2 per kg.
约翰答应了。 老板让他去市场找到一个卖西瓜的人。约翰去了并很快回来。他说他找到了一个卖西瓜的人。老板问他每公斤多少钱?约翰摇摇头,回到市场去问,然后又回来告诉老板每公斤1.2美元。
Boss told John to wait a second, and he called Bobby to come to his office. He asked Bobby to go and find anyone seling watermelon in the market. Bobby went, returned and said, boss, only one person selling watermelon. $1.2 per kg, $10 for 10kg, he has inventory of 340 melons. On the table 58 melons, every melon weights about 2 kg, bought from the South two days ago, they are fresh and red, good quality.
老板让约翰等一会儿,这时他把博比叫到办公室。他让博比去市场找到一个卖西瓜的人。博比去了,回来之后说:“老板,只有一个卖西瓜的人,每公斤 1.2美元,每10公斤卖10美元。这个人一共有340个西瓜,其中58个放在货架上,每个西瓜重约2公斤,都是两天前从南方运来的,新鲜,红瓤,质量好。”
John was very impresed and realized the difference between himself and Bobby. He decided not to resign but to learn from Bobby.
约翰受到很大的触动,他意识到自己与博比之间的差距。他决定收回辞呈并向博比学习。

Missouri calls for an economic truce with Kansas
密苏苏里提出与肯萨斯达成经济休战协定
I hear the tax breaks are good in Kansas
听说肯萨斯州有好的税收减免政策
MISSOURI and Kansas are old rivals. In the 1850s thousands of Missourians rode into Kansas,seized polling stations at gunpoint and fraudulently elected pro-slavery candidates. The effortsof these “border ruffians” were a prelude to the civil war.
密苏苏里和肯萨斯是一对老冤家。在1850年代,千万密苏苏里人涌入肯萨斯州,抢占他们枪口下的投票站,公然欺骗地投选支持奴隶制的候选人。这些边境恶棍的努力同样阻止了内战的爆发。
Today the rivalry is less bloody. Both states offer tax incentives to lure in companies fromelsewhere. Because they share a large metropolitan region, Kansas City, many firms qualifyfor such breaks simply by shifting a mile or two over the border.
如今的对抗少了点血腥。双方都拿出税费刺激计划,吸引四面八方的公司。由于大都市肯萨斯城横跨两州,许多公司为了有资格拿到这样的税收减免,会通常把公司移一两英里跨过边界。
Looking at the biggest type of sweetener, the Hall Family Foundation, a charity, estimates thatover the past five years the two state governments have forgone $217m in taxes. Some 3,289jobs have been tempted across the metropolitan border to Kansas; Missouri has won 2,824jobs back. Kansas can therefore claim to be “winning”. But local reports suggest that CBIZ, aKansan consulting firm, is considering moving to Missouri; that would erase this lead.
霍尔家族基金会慈善组织推测,在过去的五年间,两州政府分别放弃了2亿1700万的税收。肯萨斯州吸引了大约3289个职位,密苏苏里州则抢到了2824个,因此肯萨斯可以说是胜利的一方。但当地媒体表示,肯萨咨询公司CBIZ有意移到密苏苏里州,如果一旦成功,领先将会不复存在。
None of this border-ruffianry creates new jobs. Locals gripe that when, for example, AMCTheatre recently moved its headquarters out of downtown Kansas City, Missouri, its staff simplyhad a longer commute to work. Sly James, the mayor of Kansas City, Missouri, describes thenew border war as “short-sighted”. Kevin Collison, a reporter for the Kansas City Star, calls it“cannibalistic”.
边境恶棍们并没有创造新的就业机会。当地人抱怨称,最近AMC电影院从密苏苏里肯萨斯城市中心迁走时,只不过它的员工们花费在上下班的时间更长了些。该市市长斯莱·詹姆斯认为这是一场没有远见的边境之战。肯萨斯城星光的一名记者Kevin Collision称之为自相残杀。
A few years ago local business leaders from 17 companies, including Sprint and Hallmark Cards,wrote to Jay Nixon, the governor of Missouri, and Sam Brownback, his counterpart in Kansas,to warn them that the rift was harming the area. In the past month, a truce has started tolook likelier. Majorities in the Missouri House and Senate have approved versions of a bill thatwould bar incentives for businesses near the border to hop over it. The catch, though, is thatthis law will go into effect only if Kansas reciprocates. There is a two-year window for a deal tobe done.
几年前,包括来自Sprint和Hallmark Cards在内的当地17家公司的总裁们向密苏苏里州长杰·尼克森联同肯萨斯州州长萨姆·布朗巴克写信警告这种裂痕正危害着这个地方。过去数月里,双方好像可以签署一份休战协定。多数密苏苏里议员同意签署一项法案旨在禁止边界贸易刺激方案。然而该方案有一缺陷,要想该法案有效,必须得到肯萨斯州同样的做法。在达成协议之前有两年的窗口期。
Missouri Senator Ryan Silvey, a Republican who is sponsoring the Senate version of the bill,says he is confident the House will soon pick up and pass his version. Over in Kansas, MrBrownback is guardedly optimistic. He says he has thought for some time that “ceasefirenegotiations” were needed, and that this bill is a “necessary condition for us to negotiate”. MrBrownback says that ceasefire discussions ought to consider all the tools used to encourageeconomic development on both sides of the border. These would include income and propertytaxes.
密苏苏里州民主党议员莱恩·希尔威尔支持这项法案,他表示对国会审议通过这样法案有信心。而肯萨斯州方面,布朗巴克对此保持着谨慎的乐观,他说停火谈判的必要性已经在他脑子里有一段时间了,这部法案为我们谈判提供了必要的条件。停火谈判应该考虑边界双方共同的经济发展刺激方式。这其中就包括财产和所得税。
It is difficult to understand why either state would want to continue throwing money at ascheme that benefits only the companies that move. Mr Silvey explains: “When people feel likethey are locked in competition they just want to win, even when the competition is stupid.”Since Missouri's annual budget is $26 billion to Kansas's $14 billion, some Missourians ask whytheir state does not simply outspend its neighbour to win the war. Mr Silvey says that if anagreement is not reached in the next few years, his colleagues will want to “go with bothbarrels” and steal more business from Kansas. Move quickly Kansas, or the border ruffians mayyet ride again.
我们仍然弄不清楚,为什么苏肯两州会继续撒钱来支持只有迁移的企业才会受益的方案。希尔威尔解释道,当人们感觉到自己受困于竞争,他们总是很想赢,尽管这是一场傻傻的斗。相比140亿美元的年度预算,密苏苏里州每年有达260亿美元预算。一些密苏苏里人问,为什么就不能仅仅靠相对高的预算来赢得胜利。他指出,如果未来几年内仍达成协议,他的同僚们会带着枪,从肯萨斯州抢些生意。肯萨斯快快行动!边境恶棍又要来了!#p#副标题#e#

《画皮》的故事源自蒲松龄的《聊斋志异》,是至今为止被改编为影视剧次数最多的小说之一。那么你想阅读画皮原著的英汉双语对照版本吗?下面读文网小编为大家带来聊斋志异画皮双语阅读,欢迎大家阅读!
At T'ai-yuan there lived a man named Wang. One morning he was out walking when he met ayoung lady carrying a bundle and hurrying along by herself. As she moved along with some difficulty,Wang quickened his pace and caught her up, and found she was a pretty girl of about sixteen.
太原王生早行,遇一女郎,抱襆独奔,甚艰于步,急走趁之,乃二八姝丽。
Much smitten, he inquired whither she was going so early, and no one with her. "A traveller likeyou," replied the girl, "cannot alleviate my distress ; why trouble yourself to ask?" "What distress isit?" said Wang; "I'm sure I'll do anything I can for you." "My parents," answered she, "loved money,and they sold me as concubine into a rich family, where the wife was very jealous, and beat andabused me morning and night. It was more than I could stand, so I have run away." Wang asked herwhere she was going; to which she replied that a runaway had no fixed place of abode. "My house,"said Wang, "is at no great distance; what do you say to coming there?" She joyfully acquiesced; andWang, taking up her bundle, led the way to his house. Finding no one there, she asked Wang wherehis family were; to which he replied that that was only the library. "And a very nice place, too," saidshe; "but if you are kind enought to wish to save my life, you mustn't let it be known that I am here."Wang promised that he would not divulge her secret, and so she remained there for some dayswithout anyone knowing about it. He then told his wife, and she, fearing the girl might belong tosome influential family, advised him to send her away. This, however, he would not consent to do.
心相爱乐,问:“何夙夜踽踽独行?”女曰:“行道之人,不能解愁忧,何劳相问。”生曰:“卿何愁忧?或可效力不辞也。”女黯然曰:“父母贪赂,鬻妾朱门。嫡妒甚,朝詈而夕楚辱之,所弗堪也,将远遁耳。”问:“何之?”曰:“在亡之人,乌有定所。”生言:“敝庐不远,即烦枉顾。”女喜从之。生代携襆物,导与同归。女顾室无人,问:“君何无家口?”答云:“斋耳。”女曰:“此所良佳。如怜妾而活之,须秘密勿泄。”生诺之。乃与寝合。使匿密室,过数日而人不知也。生微告妻。妻陈,疑为大家媵妾,劝遣之,生不听。
One day, going into the town, Wang met a Taoist priest, who looked at him in astonishment, andasked him what he had met. "I have met nothing," replied Wang. "Why," said the priest, "you arebewitched; what do you mean by not having met anything?" But Wang insisted that it was so, andthe priest walked away, saying, "The fool! Some people don't seem to know when death is at hand."This startled Wang, who at first thought of the girl; but then he reflected that a pretty young thing asshe was couldnt' well be a witch, and began to suspect that the priest merely wanted to do a strokeof business.
偶适市,遇一道士,顾生而愕。问:“何所遇?”答言:“无之。”道士曰:“君身邪气萦绕,何言无?”生又力白。道士乃去,曰:“惑哉!”世固有死将临而不悟者!”生以其言异,颇疑女。转思明明丽人,何至为妖,意道士借魇禳以猎食者。
When he returned, the library door was shut, and he couldn't get in, which made him suspectthat something was wrong; and so he climbed over the wall, where he found the door of the innerroom shut too. Softly creeping up, he looked through the window and saw a hideous devil, with agreen face and jagged teeth like a saw, spreading a human skin upon the bed and painting it with apaint brush. The devil then threw aside the brush, and giving the skin a shake out, just as you woulda coat, threw it over its shoulders, when lo! it was the girl.
无何,至斋门,门内杜不得入,心疑所作,乃逾垝坦,则室门已闭。蹑足而窗窥之,见一狞鬼,面翠色,齿巉巉如锯,铺人皮于榻上,执彩笔而绘之。已而掷笔,举皮如振衣状,披于身,遂化为女子。
Terrified at this, Wang hurried away with his head down in search of the priest, who had gone heknew not whither; subsequently finding him in the fields, where he threw himself on his knees andbegged the priest to save him. "As to driving her away," said the priest, "the creature must be ingreat distress to be seeking a substitute for herself; besides, I could hardly endure to injure a livingthing." However, he gave Wang a fly-brush, and bade him hand it at the door of the bedroom,agreeing to meet again at the Ch'ing-ti temple. Wang went home, but did not dare enter the library;so he hung up the brush at the bedroom door, and before long heard a sound of footsteps outside.Not daring to move, he made his wife peep out; and she saw the girl standing looking at the brush,afraid to pass it. She then ground her teeth and went away; but in a little while came back, and begancursing, saying "You priest, you won't frighten me. Do you think I am going to give up what isalready in my grasp?" Thereupon she tore the brush to pieces, and bursting open the door, walkedstraight up to the bed, where she ripped open Wang and tore his heart out, with which she wentaway. Wang's wife screamed out, and the servant came in with a light; but Wang was already deadand presented a most miserable spectacle.
睹此状,大惧,兽伏而出。急追道士,不知所往。遍迹之,遇于野,长跪求救,请遣除之。道士曰:“此物亦良苦,甫能觅代者,予亦不忍伤其生。”乃以蝇拂授生,令挂寝门。临别约会于青帝庙。生归,不敢入斋,乃寝内室,悬拂焉。一更许,闻门外戢戢有声,自不敢窥,使妻窥之。但见女子来,望拂子不敢进,立而切齿,良久乃去。少时复来,骂曰:“道士吓我,终不然,宁入口而吐之耶!”取拂碎之,坏寝门而入,径登生床,裂生腹,掬生心而去。
His wife, who was in an agony of fright, hardly dared cry for fear of making a noise; and next dayshe sent Wang's brother to see the priest. The latter got into a great rage, and cried out, "Was it forthis that I had compassion on you, devil that you are?" proceeding at once with Wang's brother tothe house, from which the girl had disappeared without anyone knowing whither she had gone. Butthe priest, raising his head, looked all around, and said, "Luckily she's not far off." He then asked wholived in the apartments on the south side, to which Wang's brother replied that he did; whereuponthe priest declared that there she would be found. Wang's brother was horribly frightened and saidhe did not think so; and then the priest asked him if any stranger had been to the house. To this heanswered that he had been out to the Ch'ing-ti temple and couldn't possibly say: but he went off toinquire, and in a little while came back and reported that an old woman had sought service withthem as a maid-of-all-work, and had been engaged by his wife. "That is she," said the priest, asWang's brother added she was still there; and they all set out to go to the house together.
妻号。婢入烛之,生已死,腔血狼藉。陈骇涕不敢声。明日使弟二郎奔告道士。道士怒曰:“我固怜之,鬼子乃敢尔!”即从生弟来。女子已失所在。既而仰首四望,曰:“幸遁未远。”问:“南院谁家?”二郎曰:“小生所舍也。”道士曰:“现在君所。”二郎愕然,以为未有。道士问曰:“曾否有不识者一人来?”答曰:“仆早赴青帝庙,良不知,当归问之。”去少顷而返,曰:“果有之,晨间一妪来,欲佣为仆家操作,室人止之,尚在也。”道士曰:“即是物矣。”遂与俱往。
Then the priest took his wooden sword, and standing in the middle of the courtyard, shoutedout, "Base-born fiend, give me back my fly-brush!" Meanwhile, the new maid-of-all-work was in agreat state of alarm, and tried to get away by the door; but the priest struck her and down she fellflat, the human skin dropping off, and she became a hideous devil. There she lay grunting like a pig,until the priest grasped his wooden sword and stuck off her head. She then became a dense columnof smoke curling up from the ground, when the priest took an uncorked gourd and threw it right intothe midst of the smoke. A sucking noise was heard, and the whole column was drawn into the gourd;after which the priest corked it up closely and put it in his pouch. The skin, too, which was completeeven to the eye-brows, eyes, hands, and feet, he also rolled up as if it had been a scroll, and was onthe point of leaving with it, when Wang's wife stopped him, and with tears entreated him to bringher husband to life.
仗木剑立庭心,呼曰:“孽鬼!偿我拂子来!”妪在室,惶遽无色,出门欲遁,道士逐击之。妪仆,人皮划然而脱,化为厉鬼,卧嗥如猪。道士以木剑枭其首。身变作浓烟,匝地作堆。道士出一葫芦,拔其塞,置烟中,飗飗然如口吸气,瞬息烟尽。道士塞口入囊。共视人皮,眉目手足,无不备具。道士卷之,如卷画轴声,亦囊之,乃别欲去。陈氏拜迎于门,哭求回生之法。
The priest said he was unable to do that; but Wang's wife flung herself at his feet, and with loudlamentations implored his assistance. For some time he remained immersed in thought, and thenreplied, "My power is not equal to what you ask. I myself cannot raise the dead; but I will direct youto some one who can, and if you apply to him properly you will succeed." Wang's wife then askedthe priest who it was; to which he replied, "there is a maniac in the town who passes his timegrovelling in the dirt. Go prostrate yourself before him, and beg him to help you. If he insults you,show no sign of anger." Wang's brother knew the man to whom he alluded, and accordingly badethe preist adieu, and proceeded thither with his sister-in-law .
道士谢不能。陈益悲,伏地不起。道士沉思曰:“我术浅,诚不能起死。我指一人或能之。”问:“何人?”曰:“市上有疯者,时卧粪土中,试叩而哀之。倘狂辱夫人,夫人勿怒也。”二郎亦习知之,乃别道士,与嫂俱往。
They found the destitute creature raving away by the roadside, so filthy that it was all they coulddo to go near him. Wang's wife approached him on her knees; at which the maniac leered at her, andcried out, "Do you love me, my beauty?" Wang's wife told him what she had come for, but he onlylaughed and said, "You can get plenty of other husbands. Why raise the dead one to life?" ButWang's wife entreated him to help her whereupon he observed, "It's very strange: people apply tome to raise their dead as if I was king of the infernal regions." He then gave Wang's wife a thrashingwith his staff, which she bore without a murmur, and before a gradually increasing crowd ofspectators. After this he produced a loathsome pill which he told her she must swallow, but here shebroke down and was quite unable to do so. However she did manage it at last, and then the maniac,crying out, "How you do love me!" got up and went away without taking any more notice of her.They followed him into a temple with loud supplications, but he had disappeared, and every effort tofind him was unsuccessful. Overcome with rage and shame, Wang's wife went home, where shemourned bitterly over her dead husband, grievously repenting the steps she had taken, and wishingonly to die. She then bethought herself of preparing the corpse, near which none of the servantswould venture, and set to work to close up the frightful wound of which he died.
见乞人颠歌道上,鼻涕三尺,秽不可近。陈膝行而前。乞人笑曰:“佳人爱我乎?”陈告以故。又大笑曰:“人尽夫也,活之何为!”陈固哀之。乃曰:“异哉!人死而乞活于我,我阎罗耶?”怒以杖击陈,陈忍痛受之。市人渐集如堵。乞人咯痰唾盈把,举向陈吻曰:“食之!”陈红涨于面,有难色;既思道士之嘱,遂强啖焉。觉入喉中,硬如团絮,格格而下,停结胸间。乞人大笑曰:“佳人爱我哉!”遂起,行已不顾。尾之,入于庙中。迫而求之,不知所在,前后冥搜,殊无端兆,惭恨而归。既悼夫亡之惨,又悔食唾之羞,俯仰哀啼,但愿即死。方欲展血敛尸,家人伫望,无敢近者。
While thus employed, interrupted from time to time by her sobs, she felt a rising lump in herthroat, which by-and-by came out with a pop and fell straight into the dead man's wound. Lookingclosely at it, she saw it was a human heart; and then it began as it were to throb, emitting a warmvapour like smoke. Much excited, she at once closed the flesh over it, and held the sides of thewound together with all her might. Very soon, however, she got tired, and finding the vapor escapingfrom the crevices, she tore up a piece of silk and bound it round, at the same time bringing backcirculation by rubbing the body and covering it up with clothes. In the night she removed thecoverings, and found that breath was coming from the nose; and by next moring her hustband wasalive again, though disturbed in mind as if awaking from a dream, and feeling a pain in his heart.Where he had been wounded there was a cicatrix about as big as a cash, which soon afterdisappeared.
陈抱尸收肠,且理且哭。哭极声嘶,顿欲呕,觉鬲中结物,突奔而出,不及回首,已落腔中。惊而视之,乃人心也,在腔中突突犹跃,热气腾蒸如烟然。大异之。急以两手合腔,极力抱挤。少懈,则气氤氲自缝中出,乃裂绺帛急束之。以手抚尸,渐温,覆以衾裯。中夜启视,有鼻息矣。天明竟活。为言:“恍惚若梦,但觉腹隐痛耳。”视破处,痂结如钱,寻愈。异史氏曰:“愚哉世人!明明妖也而以为美。迷哉愚人!明明忠也而以为妄。然爱人之色而渔之,妻亦将食人之唾而甘之矣。天道好还,但愚而迷者不悟耳。哀哉!”

Learning to play a musical instrument can change your brain, with a US review finding music training can lead to improved speech and foreign language skills.
掌握一门乐器能够使大脑发生变化。这是美国的一项最新研究发现,通过音乐训练还能够提高演讲和外语水平。
Although it has been suggested in the past that listening to Mozart or other classical music could make you smarter, there has been little evidence to show that music boosts brain power.
尽管过去就有人提到过听莫扎特或其他古典音乐可以让人变得更聪明,但是并没有足够的证据证明音乐能提高人的智商。
But a data-driven review by Northwestern University has pulled together research that links musical training to learning that spills over into skills including language, speech, memory, attention and even vocal emotion.
如今,美国西北大学的一项研究从数据出发,分析探讨了音乐训练对语言、演讲、记忆力、注意力甚至感情表达等能力的影响。
Researcher Nina Kraus said the data strongly suggested that the neural connections made during musical training also enhanced the brain for other aspects of human communication.
据研究人员妮娜·克劳斯介绍,他们的研究数据充分表明,音乐训练过程中所产生的神经元连接能增强大脑在人际沟通等方面的能力。
“ The effect of music training suggests that, akin to physical exercise and its impact on body fitness, music is a resource that tones the brain for auditory fitness and thus requires society to re-examine the role of music in shaping individual development,”the researchers said in their study.
在研究报告中,这些研究人员这样说道:“与体育锻炼对身体健康的影响一样,音乐能够增强大脑活力,增强听觉的敏锐度。所以我们有必要重视音乐在个人发展中所起的作用。”
Kraus said learning musical sounds could enhance the brain’s ability to adapt and change and also enable the nervous system to provide a scaffolding of patterns that are important to learning.
克劳斯还说,学习声乐能够提高大脑的应变能力,也可以帮助神经系统建立起一个有利于学习的架构。
The study, published in Nature Reviews Neuroscience, looked at the explosion of research in recent years focused on the effects of music training on the nervous system which could have strong implications for education.
该成果发表于《神经系统科学自然评论》上,对近几年该领域内的最新研究进行了回顾和分析。这些研究主要关注的是音乐训练对神经系统的影响及其可能会对教育产生的潜在影响。
The study found that playing an instrument primes the brain to choose what is relevant in a complex process that may involve reading or remembering a score, timing issues and coordination with other musicians.
研究发现,演奏乐器能帮助提升大脑从各种复杂的过程中分辨出有价值信息的能力,这一复杂的过程可能包括看谱、记谱,计时或与其他乐师配合等。
“A musician’s brain selectively enhances information-bearing elements in sound,” Kraus said in a statement. “In a beautiful interrelationship between sensory and cognitive processes, the nervous system makes associations between complex sounds and what they mean.”
克劳斯在一项声明中说:“音乐家的大脑能够有选择性地从声音中分辨出载有信息的元素。在感觉和认知的不断交互和融合中,神经系统能把复杂的声音和它们所表达的意思联系起来。”

职场如战场,需要我们时刻保持警惕才能不被社会淘汰,下面读文网小编为大家带来职场双语美文阅读,欢迎大家阅读!
Whether you are in a career you hate or happily forging on with the dream job, you’ll have to put up with politics and personalities, so you might as well change careers and enjoy the things you do, right?
无论你正处于厌恶的职位中,还是在奋勇地追求梦想职业,你都得忍受各种办公室政治和人际关系的破事,所以不妨改变当前的职业,做些自己喜欢的事情,对吗?
No matter how much you love the field you are in, some BS is going to come your way – some BS that will prevent you from doing passionate, productive work you were born to do. However, if you truly love what you do, weathering those storms will be far easier than if you are sitting in.
无论你多么喜爱自己所在的行业领域,在职业的旅途你总会遇到一些流言蜚语,其中有一些会消耗你的热情,阻碍你去完成天赋所在的工作。然而,如果你真的非常热爱自己的工作,那么经历这些狂风暴雨就会比你投入工作容易得多了。
But, let’s look on the bright side: the wonderful emotional advantages age and experience that can help you navigate that new career with ease and efficiency.
不过,不妨考虑一下光明的前途:你的优势年龄与经验,都有助你在新的行业里得心应手。
1.You see the big picture.
1.你能观全局。
Whereas at 25 you’d steam, fume and gnaw your teeth because your boss is now telling you “we should do X” – the very X you were trying to convince him to do months ago, because a coworker speaks over you in meetings and aggressively tries to take over your area of expertise…now you just don’t care. Or perhaps you care a bit, but you let it go.
虽然在25岁的时候,你可能会因为这些事情感到生气,愤怒,咬牙切齿:老板告诉你“我们应该做XX事”(而这件XX事在几个月前你已经向他请求过了),或者同事在会议上带有挑衅的意味地声称取代你的工作。不过时至如今,你已经早已毫不在乎了。也许你有点在意,但你已经让它过去了。
Your boss gives you a great career opportunity, that thieving coworker is, after all, a friend and a future reference. These are people who will in the end consciously or unconsciously admire you more for staying mature in the face of their blatant IP theft. So, you let people have little things, and you focus on the grand things to come.
你之所以能让事情过去,是因为你能通观全局:只有老板才是给你职业机会的人,而那个带有剽窃倾向同事,不管怎么说都只是一个朋友或将来的参照物。这些人到最后会有意无意欣赏你处理这种公然窃取知识产权事情的成熟。所以,你能正视别人的小动作,并且专注在更重要的事情上。
2.You are emotionally mature.
2. 你心理成熟。
By now, people’s petty hangups, insecurities, and gossip don’t irritate you anymore. If you are not a negative person or don’t want to be a part of the gossip circle, you know how to elegantly rebuff requests to join in. Perhaps more importantly, you know that your career and life don’t depend on it.
就目前看来,人们的琐碎烦恼,不安全感,以及闲言碎语都不会让你忿忿不平了。如果你是一个积极阳光的人,或者你不想加入八卦的行列,你就懂得如何优雅地拒绝请求。也许更重要的是,你很清楚你的事业与生活完全不需要赌注在这些琐事上。
You also know that most people are a bit insecure, and that their coping mechanisms are going to be all over the place. The professional world is one big kindergarten. You smile, stay nice, and go back to doing a great job.
你也知道大多数人都有点缺乏安全感,并且不管何种场合他们的应对机制都会显示出来。专业领域就像一所规模庞大的幼儿园。你微笑,待人友好,然后回归本职出色地完成工作任务。
3.You know how to say no.
3. 你懂得如何拒绝他人。
When I was younger, I had a boss who worked so hard that her lips would turn blue from cold in the room (it was so late that the heating got turned off), and who would not eat for 7 or 8 hours because she ate two meals a day. Subconsciously, regardless of the fact that I was paid far less, and an hourly employee at that, she expected the same kind of “devotion” from me. And I was dumb enough to follow, which left me exhausted and with no life outside of work.
在笔者更年轻的时候,我遇到一位非常卖力工作的老板,甚至还能看到她的嘴唇冷得发紫(因为到了晚上,中央加热系统就会关闭),她不像平常人一样每隔7到8小时就会进食一次,她每天只吃两顿。我隐隐感觉到,虽然我的薪水远远不如她,作为一名时薪制的员工,她所期待我的“付出”应与她一样。而我当时也很单纯,就按照老板的吩咐,这使我筋疲力尽,生活除了工作还是工作。
Nowadays, I say it when I need a break, even if it is, God forbid, twice a day. I am able to demand a work style that makes me most efficient, and won’t break me in the long run. I also know that I am likely not going to get fired over this. The worst that can happen: some tension and a few passive-aggressive jokes. Or getting fired. Which is better than being blurry eyed, inefficient, and, ultimately, unhappy at your job.
时至今天,我会在需要休息的时候跟老板说,尽管客观条件不允许,我也争取一天两次小憩。我有能力调整工作模式让自己更有效率,也免于在长期的工作中损害自己。我也很清楚我不会因此而逃过被解雇命运。最坏的结果就是:压力和带有负面色彩的玩笑话。或被解雇。不过这总比视力模糊,工作效率低下,以及最终讨厌这份工作好多了。
4.You know your worth.
4. 你清楚自己的价值。
The first months/year(s) in the new career are hard. You know you are smart and talented, but many won’t get it (it takes smart people to know smart people, and many people you’ll encounter are not that smart). That’s OK. You have your ego in check, and you march on, slowly introducing your ideas in a friendly manner, making alliances with the right people, and letting your ability naturally shine through. This versus the dissatisfaction of the yesteryear, when all that injustice felt personal, disheartening and insurmountable.
刚刚转行加入新公司的前几个月(或前几年)确实是困难的。你知道自己很能干有才,但很多人并不买账(因为能干的人惺惺相识,但很多你遇到的人并没有那么能干。)这也没有关系,你重新检视自己,勇往直前,以友好的姿态从容地介绍你的想法,与对的人结交朋友,你的能力就自然而然散发光芒。这样你会感到相比前一年那些让你感到针对个人的不公平,打击与压制都截然不同了。
5. You know how to manage people.
5. 你懂得处理人际关系。
It’s just how it is: people around you are not always going to be professional or mature. There’ll be those who yell. There’ll be those who want a constant companion, not a colleague. There’ll be those who respond well to an open conversation and removing tensions in a mature way, and there’ll be those who’d rather flex the boss muscle or constantly poke at you with borderline unprofessional comments. You in your 20s? Exasparated and frustrated. You now? You choose your battles – mentally file your nails during yelling, introduce boundaries to wannabe-best-friend, and even put people in their place as needed. Gently. It’s kindergarten, after all.
情况是这样的:身边的同事并不都是专业或成熟的。他们都有可能成为大嘴巴的人。他们可能成为你的长期伙伴,但不是同事。他们可能会就开放性的问题给你一个很好的回应,并以成熟的方式缓解你的压力,也有可能拍老板的马屁或常常用不专业的言论攻击你。如果是20岁的你会怎样?怒火冲天或伤心沮丧。如今的你呢?你懂得选择战役——对待这些不实言论心里有数,向他人表明你的底线是成为好友,甚至让那些人回归自己的位置上。优雅地。毕竟,只是个幼儿园嘛。
Now, I am not saying that any of the situations above are going to be easy. Some days it will all be harder than others, and some days you will, yet again, curse the fate that put you in your dream career later in life. But that’s all temporary – after all, you have also learned to breathe, exercise, confide in the right allies, and move forward with your chosen career.
It is, after all, “The War of Art”:
最后,我的意思并不是说以上所有的这些情况都很容易处理。有时候还会更困难,不过有一天你会印证自己必须改变职业的命运。不过那些都只是暂时性的,毕竟,你还得学会如何透气,锻炼,与对的盟友并肩作战,以及在自己所选的事业向前进。
这就是,“艺术的战争”
“The professional endures adversity…He reminds himself it’s better to be in the arena, getting stomped by the bull, then to be up in the stands, or out in the parking lot”.
”专业的人能忍耐变故,因为他能常常提醒自己,宁可身处竞技台,被凶猛的公牛践踏,也总比站在高台或停车场上置身事外来得有意义。”

My tongue-tied Muse in manners holds her still,
我的缄口的诗神只脉脉无语;
While comments of your praise, richly compiled,
他们对你的美评却累牍连篇,
Reserve their character with golden quill
用金笔刻成辉煌夺目的大字,
And precious phrase by all the Muses filed.
和经过一切艺神雕琢的名言。
I think good thoughts whilst other write good words,
我满腔热情,他们却善颂善祷;
And like unletter'd clerk still cry 'Amen'
像不识字的牧师只知喊"阿门",
To every hymn that able spirit affords
去响应才子们用精炼的笔调
In polish'd form of well-refined pen.
熔铸成的每一首赞美的歌咏。
Hearing you praised, I say ''Tis so, 'tis true,'
听见人赞美你,我说,"的确,很对",
And to the most of praise add something more;
凭他们怎样歌颂我总嫌不够;
But that is in my thought, whose love to you,
但只在心里说,因为我对你的爱
Though words come hindmost, holds his rank before.
虽拙于词令,行动却永远带头。
Then others for the breath of words respect,
那么,请敬他们,为他们的虚文;
Me for my dumb thoughts, speaking in effect.
敬我,为我的哑口无言的真诚。
