文档简介
Unit 1As a foreigner doing business in the United States, I feel very rushed. I am used to friendly opening exchanges when doing business. Here in Chicago, things are different. There is no time for getting to know one another. This does not seem appropriate to me. There is no chance to develop a sense of trust when people meet to talk over issues. There are no rituals like tea or coffee before discussing business, though this is a(n) convention in my country. When we discuss business it starts with a(n) leisurely chat. I think that it is important for business partners to get familiar with each other first and to feel relaxed. If the exchange is too abrupt , there is a risk that something will be forgotten. Some possibilities go without being assessed when there is too much pressure. I dont believe this is the best strategy for proper communication. Besides, the perception is that they just dont care about you as an individual here. You are basically just another means of making money. All of this used to create a real dilemma for me. At first, it caused me to have as little interaction with American business partners as possible. Gradually, though, I have come to understand the cultural differences between our two countries. This has really helped me to feel more comfortable doing business here.作为一个外国人在美国做生意,我觉得很匆忙。我习惯了做生意的时候,开放交流的友好。在芝加哥,一切都不同了。你没有时间去了解彼此。这似乎并不适合我。是没有机会发展一个信任人们见面时谈的问题。没有任何仪式喜欢茶或者咖啡谈生意,虽然这是一个在我国(略)公约。当我们讨论业务开始与(氮)悠闲地聊天。我认为这是非常重要的商业伙伴熟悉彼此第一和放松。如果交流是太突然了,有一种风险,有些事情是可以遗忘。一些可能没有得到评估时,有太多的压力。我不相信这是最好的战略,适当的沟通。此外,看法是,他们只是不关心你作为个人在这里。你基本上只是另一种赚钱的方法。这一切,用来创建一个真正的困境我。首先,它使我有小小的互动与美国商业合作伙伴尽可能。渐渐地,虽然,我已经明白了我们两国之间的文化差异。这真的让我感到更舒适,在这里做生意。Unit 2Bill Johnsons path to Olympic gold was different than that of most. In fact, even though he was the first American man to ever win the downhill skiing event, many rejected him as a true Olympic hero. He was a rebellious kid who came from a troubled background, and he boasted too much. Moreover, he only became involved in skiing because a judge sent him to a ski school after he had stolen a car at age 17. There was no lifelong commitment to the sport. He did not exemplify the Olympic spirit. He did not gain distinction by continuously training for his event. Still, few failed to appreciate his marvelous race in the 1984 Winter Olympic Games in Sarajevo. He was just a natural skier and his technique was perfect for the course. And so even before the race began, he was claiming victory. This course was made for me. Nothing can stop me, he had boasted. He also caused some comments when he talked about the millions of dollars he would be able to make after he won the race. This made many skiers hostile toward him. That just encouraged him even more. Then on the day of the event, he turned out the fastest. It takes a lot of courage to throw yourself down a mountain, Bill Johnson remarked proudly after he won a gold medal for the United States. Not many can do that. 比尔约翰逊的道路,奥运金牌是不同的比大多数。事实上,尽管他是美国第一人赢得过高山滑雪赛事,多次拒绝了他作为一个真正的奥运英雄。他是个叛逆的孩子谁来从一个陷入困境的背景,和他说太多。此外,他只参与了滑雪,因为法官送他到一个滑雪学校后,他偷了一辆车在17岁。那里没有终身致力于体育。他并没有体现奥运精神。他没有获得殊荣不断训练自己的事件。不过,很少有不欣赏他的精彩的比赛在1984届冬季奥运会在萨拉热窝。他是一个自然的滑雪者和他的技术是完美的。而即使在比赛开始的时候,他声称胜利。”本课程是为我而做。没有什么可以阻止我,”他吹嘘。他也引起了一些评论时,他谈到了数百万美元,他将能够使他赢得了比赛。这使得许多滑雪者敌视他。这只是鼓励他更加。然后,在一天的活动,他原来是最快的。”这需要很大的勇气把自己下山,”比尔说他骄傲的约翰逊后赢得金牌的美国。”不可以这样做。”Unit 3At first, my dad was not in favor of me marrying Will because Will is black. I guess my dad was a bit of a racist. Unfortunately, no arguments could counter dads beliefs. Despite his protests , though, Will and I decided to go through with our wedding. On a marvelous June day we were married in the park. The wedding went off without any hostile words or embarrassing exchanges. It was actually quite beautiful. There was just one problem. Many of our friends and relatives didnt attend our wedding. I had to conclude that my dad was not the only prejudiced person we knew. Other than my father, no one had come out to speak against my relationship with Will. It did not seem appropriate for them to show their resistance to our marriage in this way. My dad had strong reservations about my marriage to Will, but at least he was there. Will and I decided to overcome this burden by showing everyone how wrong they were. We wanted not only to love one another, but also to defy racial hatred by loving one another. We probably werent being all that realistic, but we did succeed with one person. My dad and Will have developed an amazing friendship. My dad says he has forgotten why he ever had any doubts about our marriage. 首先,我的父亲不赞成我结婚,会因为是黑色的。我想我的爸爸是个种族主义者。不幸的是,没有理由可以对付爸爸的信仰。尽管他的抗议,不过,会和我决定通过与我们的婚礼。在一个精彩的六月我们结婚的日子在公园。婚礼没有任何敌对或尴尬的交流。它实际上是相当漂亮。只是有一个问题。我们的许多朋友和亲戚没有参加我们的婚礼。我得出一个结论我的爸爸不是唯一对我们有偏见的人。除了我的父亲,没有人出来说对我的关系,将。它似乎不适合他们展示他们的抵抗我这样。我爸爸有强烈的保留我的婚姻将,但他至少有。将和我决定克服这一负担,每个人展示他们有多错。我们希望不仅彼此相爱,而且无视种族仇恨的爱彼此。我们不可能都是现实的,但我们成功了一个人。我的爸爸,已经制定了一个惊人的友谊。我爸爸说他忘记了他为什么会有任何的怀疑,我们的婚姻。Unit 4What do we know about love? Is it, as some people would suggest, a mysterious force? Or can it be explained and possibly even created? Well, even in this scientific and reason-driven age, love seems still to defy total understanding. We can, however, know something about love and make stronger connections between individuals. One thing that seems to affect love is distance. The common idea is that the love between people grows as they are separated. Sometimes it is true that longing for someone who has gone overseas becomes more intense. Something that nourishes love is danger. Send both lovers to dangerous places and they will end up loving each other more. This could be caused by the worry it develops. It could also be that feelings of uncertainty or need transform into love with time. Love gives us warmth, courage, and a feeling of being safe, but it also demands selfless devotion and sacrifice. If you are truly committed to finding true love, you should make yourself more interesting. Do things that you enjoy and try to meet people who share identical interests. 我们知道什么是爱吗?这是因为,一些人建议,一个神秘的力量?或许可以解释,甚至可能造成的?好的,即使在这种科学和理性的时代,爱似乎仍然不完全理解。我们可以,但是,知道什么是爱和作出更大的个人之间的联系。有一点似乎是爱的距离影响。普遍的看法是,人与人之间的爱成长为他们分开。有时这是真的,渴望某人去了海外变得更加激烈。一些滋养爱情是危险的。发送爱好者危险的地方,他们将会爱彼此。这可能是因为担心它的发展。它也可能是感情的不确定性或需要变换成与时间的爱。爱让我们温暖,勇气,和一个安全的感觉,但它也需要无私的奉献和牺牲。如果你是真正致力于寻找真爱,你应该让自己更有趣。做你喜欢的事情,并努力满足人们谁分享相同的兴趣。Unit 5My son has started to hang out with the wrong type of boys. He is fifteen years old and until recently I had always been grateful for how easy he has been to raise. Lately, though, he has ceased to listen to what I say. He used to be such a sweet boy, but being in high school seems to have hardened him against authority figures. The change in his attitude has been very noticeable even to his teachers. The other day I asked him to come straight home after school, but instead he rebelled and stayed out until ten oclock. Later I found out that he had skipped school completely that day. I found out that he was with a(n) bunch of boys who often cause trouble. I decided to forbid him to do anything with those boys
