【第一篇：健康的乐观主义】

　　大多数人愿意把乐观定义为无尽的欢乐，就像一只总是装着半杯水的杯子。但那是一种绝不会为积极心理学家所推荐的虚假快乐。哈佛大学的Tal Ben-Shahar教授说，“健康的乐观主义，意味着要处于现实之中。”在Ben-Shahar看来，现实的乐观主义者，会尽努力做好一件事，而不是相信每件事都会有的结果。

　　Ben-Shahar 会进行三种乐观方面的练习。比如说，当他进行了一次糟糕的演讲，感到心情郁闷的时候，他会告诉自己这是人之常情。他会提醒自己：并不是每一次演讲都可以获 得诺贝尔获，总会有一些演讲比其它演讲效果差。接着是重塑，他分析了这个效果不好的演讲，并且从那些起作用和不起作用的演讲中吸取教训为将来做准备。最 后，需要有这样一种观点，那就是承认，在广阔的生命当中，一次演讲根本算不上什么。

  参考译文

　Most people would define optimism as endlessly happy, with a glass that’s perpetually half fall. But that’s exactly the kind of false deerfulness that positive psychologists wouldn’t recommend. “Healthy optimists means being in touch with reality.” says Tal Ben-Shahar, a Harvard professor, According to Ben- Shalar,realistic optimists are these who make the best of things that happen, but not those who believe everything happens for the best.

　　Ben-Shalar uses three optimistic exercisers. When he feels down-sag, after giving a bad lecture-he grants himself permission to be human. He reminds himself that mot every lecture can be a Nobel winner; some will be less effective than others. Next is reconstruction, He analyzes the weak lecture, leaning lessons, for the future about what works and what doesn’t. Finally, there is perspective, which involves acknowledging that in the ground scheme of life, one lecture really doesn’t matter.

【第二篇：家庭结构变迁】

　　With the implementation of the family planning policy and the change of the concept of family, the size and structure of traditional Chinese families have undergone evident changes. One is that the number of one-child families increases, resulting in a gradual decrease in the average number of family members. Another is the miniaturization trend of the family structure, which leads to the traditional extended family being replaced by nuclear family. Changes in size and structure of households contribute to simple family relationship and increasing mutual dependence of family members. However, the changes also exert negative influences, such as a surge in the speed of population aging and the increasing number of the empty-nest families.

　　参考翻译:

　　随着计划生育政策(the family planning policy)的推行和家庭观念的改变，中国传统的家庭规模和结构发生了明显变化。一是独生子女家庭增多，家庭平均人口逐渐下降。二是家庭结构呈现出小型化(miniaturization)趋势，传统的大家庭逐渐被核心家庭取代。家庭规模与结构的变化，使家庭中的人际关系变得简单，成员之间的相互依赖性日益增强。但是，家庭规模和结构的变化也带来了一些负面影响，如中国的人口老龄化速度急剧上升，空巢家庭(empty-nest family)增加等。

　　1.第一句中的“随着计划生育…和家庭观念的改变”可译成with引导的介词短语。“中国传统的家庭规模和结构发生了明显变化”则处理为句子主干。

　　2.第二句中的“一是独生子女家庭增多”译作One is that the number of one-child families increases,“家庭平均人口逐渐下降”可采用现在分词短语作结果状语，增译“导致”，译作resulting in a gradual decrease in the average number of family members。

　　3.第三句中的“二是家庭结构呈现出小型化趋势”处理成主干，“传统的大家庭逐渐被核心家庭取代”可处理成which引导的非限制性定语从句，对“家庭结构的小型化趋势”作进一步说明，同时使句式富于变化。

　　4.第四句“家庭规模与结构的变化，使…”，可将“家庭中的人际关系变得简单”，“成员之间的相互依赖性日益增强”处理成名词短语，译作simple family relationship and increasing mutual dependence of family members，这样处理符合英文中多用名词表达的语言特点，也使译文表达更简洁。

【第三篇：希望工程】

　　Project Hope is a public good project launched in1989, the goal of which is to help young dropouts inpoverty-stricken areas. The two major tasks ofProject Hope are to help build Hope Primary Schoolsand fund the poor students. China is still adeveloping country, thus shortage of education fundin poverty-stricken areas is still a severe problem. Because of poverty, more than 30 millionchildren between the ages of 6-14 are unable to attend school or are forced to drop out. Theimplement of Project Hope changes the fate of a large number of dropouts and improves theschool faculties in poverty-stricken areas. The development of basic education is thus greatlyenhanced and the fine tradition of taking pleasure in helping others is also promoted.

　　参考翻译:

　　希望工程(Project Hope)是于1989年发起的一项公益事业，以救助贫困地区失学儿童(young dropouts)为目的。帮助建设希望小学与资助贫困学生是希望工程实施的两大主要任务。中国仍然是一个发展中国家，贫困地区缺乏教育经费的问题依旧严峻。有超过3000万6—14岁的少年儿童因贫困而不能上学或者被迫辍学。希望工程的实施，改变了一大批失学儿童的命运，改善了贫困地区的学校设施，极大地促进了基础教育的发展，弘扬了助人为乐的优良传统。

　　1.第一句中的“1989年发起”可表达为过去分词形式(launched in 1989)，作后置定语;“以救助贫困地区失学儿童为目的”可译为非限制性定语从句，对核心词ProjectHope进行补充说明，即为the goal of which。

　　2.“帮助建设希望小学与资助贫困学生是希望工程实施的两大主要任务”一句可将“主要任务”作句子主语，避免英语句子头重脚轻。

　　3.“中国仍然是一个发展中国家，贫困地区缺乏教育经费的问题依旧严峻”，前后两句的关系可理解为因果关系，故翻译时加上表结果的连词thus，使句子更加连贯，符合英文表达习惯。

　　4.“有超过3000万…被迫辍学”一句中的“因贫困”because of poverty可置于句首，避免英语句子头重脚轻;“上学”可译为attend school。

　　5.最后一句汉语句子的主语“希望工程的实施”后跟了4个并列谓语，如果对应译为4个并列的谓语会显得突兀，不太连贯，可将后2个谓语译为被动语态，独立成句，以增加句型的多样性;“助人为乐”可译为takingpleasure in helping others。

【第四篇：文艺复兴】

　　The Renaissance embraced, first of all, an impressive record of new achievements in art, literature, science, philosophy, education and religion. Although the foundation of many of these was classical, they soon expanded beyond the measure of Greek and Roman influence. Indeed, many of the achievements in painting, science, politics and religion bore little relation to the classical heritage. Secondly, the Renaissance incorporated a number of dominant ideas and attitudes that gave it the impress of a unique society. Notable among these in general were optimism, and individualism; but the most significant of them all was humanism. In its broadest meaning humanism may be defined as emphasis on the human values. It was a term derived from Cicero, who used it in the sense of devotion to the liberal arts, or the subjects most compatible with the dignity of man. The humanists rejected the Scholastic philosophy with its preoccupation with theology and logic. They strove for a smooth and elegant style that would appeal more to the aesthetic than to the rational side of man's nature.

　　参考译文：

　　首先，文艺复兴包含了文学、艺术、科学、哲学、教育和宗教方面令人映像深刻的新的成就。尽管这些文化形式的基础都来自古典主义，但它们很快繁荣起来，并摆脱了希腊、罗马的影响，事实上，绘画、科学、政治和宗教上的很多成就与古典文化遗产都没有什么关系。其次，文艺复兴包含了许多鲜明的观点和态度，使其所处的社会呈现出独特的风貌，大体上这些中值得注意的是乐观主义和个人主义，但所有这些中最重要的还是人文主义。在最宽泛的意义上，人文主义可以被定义为对人的价值的强调。这个词出自西赛罗，他曾用该词来表达对自由艺术的投入或与人类尊严最一致的主题。人文主义者反对经院哲学家成天埋头于神学和逻辑，他们努力构造一种流畅的、优美的形式，使之看起来更注意人类本性里的美感和非理性。

【第五篇：学无止境】

　　由小学到中学，所修习的无非是一些普通的基本知识。就是大学四年，所授课业也还是相当粗浅的学识。大学的研究所才是初步研究学问的所在，在这里做学问也只能算是粗涉藩篱，注重的是研究学问的方法与实习。学无止境，一生的时间都嫌太短，所以古人皓首穷经，头发白了还是在继续研究，不过在这样的研究中确是有深厚的兴趣。

　　参考译文：

　　What we've learned from primary to middle school is just common ABCs. Even when it comes to the 4 years' college career, what has been delivered to us is still rather superficial. It is graduate school in a university that is the place to do research work at a basic level. However, even if you work in such places, you just touch the hedge slightly. What has been being stressed is the way to do research and practice. Knowledge is infinite, and time is limited even though you devote your lifetime to it. In view of this, people learned to an old age in order to acquire knowledge centuries ago, so much so that as their hair grew all white, they still kept studying. Yet, it is really interesting to do such research work.

【第六篇：社会秩序的基础】

　　The Basis for Social Order

　　Man, said Aristotle, is a social animal. This sociability requires peaceful congregation, and the history of mankind is mainly a movement through time of human collectivities that range from migrant tribal bands to large and complex civilizations. Survival has been due to the ability to create the means by which men in groups retain their unity and allegiance to one another.

　　Order was caused by the need and desire to survive the challenge of the environment. This orderly condition called the “state”, and the rules that maintained it, the “law”. With time the partner to this tranquility, man marched across the centuries of his evolution to the brink of exploring the boundaries of his own galaxy. Of all living organisms, only man has the capacity to interpret his own evolution as progress. As social life changed, the worth and rights of each member in the larger group, of which he was a part, increased. As the groups grew from clans to civilizations, the value of the individual did not diminish, but became instead a guide to the rules that govern all men.

　　参考译文

　　社会秩序的基础

　　亚里斯多德说，人是社会性的动物。这种社会性要求人们和平共处，人类历史主要就是人类群体在时间长河中从游牧部落到复杂的文明社会的集合运动的演进过程，(这些群体中的)幸存者能幸存下来的原因就在于：他们有能力创造一种手段，从而能使他们所在群体中的人保持团结并相互效忠。

　　出于必须和渴望战胜环境的挑战，人类建立了秩序。这样一种有秩序的状态就称作“国家”，而维持国家存在的规则就叫做“法律”。伴随着这些由法律和秩序建立起来的安宁、平静的是时间，在时间的流逝中，经过了数世纪的进化，人类终于进入了探索他自己所在的星系的时刻。在所有的生物中，只有人类的进化能被视为进步。当社会发生变革时，每个人在其所生活的大群体中的价值和权力都会增加。当人类群众从部落渐渐变成文明社会时，个人价值并未减少，相反，它成为了统治所有人的法令的指导。
