7 .... In reaction / response / answer to theevent / phenomenon / idea / question , somepeople say / think ....
But do they realize...?
7.1 Now most people get their news and informationabout the things that are happening at home andabroad from television. They believe the things theyhear and see on television. Probably most of theinformation is true, and we can believe it. But shallwe always believe the information which television gives us? Do we never suspect that the giveninformation might be slanted, distorted or the truth totally denied?
現(xiàn)在大多數(shù)人都是從電視上知道國內(nèi)外發(fā)生的事和新聞的。他們都相信在電視上看到和聽到的事。大多數(shù)消息可能是真的,我們能相信。但是我們是否總是要相信電視給我們的消息呢?難道我們從不懷疑所給的消息可能有偏見,或已歪曲了,或真相已被徹底隱瞞了?
7.2 In the past few years big business has fallen to a low level in public esteem. A recent Galluppoll shows that big business came in last, in terms of the quality of the products, among allthe enterprises which sell household appliances in Shanghai; at the top of the list were smallbusiness or business from small towns. in response to the poll, many businessmen argue thatthis public attitude is due to the inadequacy of their advertising and can be cured by steppingup their advertising campaigns. They are only fooling themselves. Do they realize that the realproblem for their loss of public respect is what they have been doing, not what they have beensaying about themselves?
在過去幾年里,大企業(yè)在公眾中的信譽(yù)已下降到一個(gè)低水平。近的蓋洛普民意測驗(yàn)表明,就產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量來說在上海出售家用電器的所有企業(yè)中,大企業(yè)位居榜末,而小企業(yè)或鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)企業(yè)名列前茅。對此許多大企業(yè)人士認(rèn)為公眾的這種態(tài)度是由于廣告宣傳不夠造成的,只要加大廣告宣傳聲勢,就會扭轉(zhuǎn)局面。這是在自欺欺人。難道他們沒有認(rèn)識到失去公眾信譽(yù)的真正問題在于他們所做的,而不是所說的?
8 The / Its method / way / value / wisdom s nowbeing questioned / challenged by more and morepeople.
8.1 Throwing criminals in jail is an ancient andwidespread method of punishment, but is it a wiseone? It does seem reasonable to keep wrongdoersin a place where they find fewer opportunities to hurtinnocent people, and where they might discoverthat crime doesn't pay. The system has long beenconsidered fair and sound by those who want to seethe guilty punished and society protected. Yet thevalue of this form of justice is now being questioned by more and more people.
把罪犯丟進(jìn)監(jiān)獄是個(gè)古老又被廣泛采用的懲罰方法。但這個(gè)方法是否明智?把做壞事的人關(guān)在一個(gè)地方,使他們沒有機(jī)會再損害無辜的人,使他們感到犯罪劃不來,似乎確實(shí)有道理。這種制度一直被那些希望罪惡得到懲罰,社會得到保護(hù)的人視為公平而有效。但是這種司法形式的合理性現(xiàn)在正受到越來越多的人的質(zhì)疑。
8.2 Required class attendance, like an old custom, is so common in in Chinese colleges anduniversities that many teachers and even students themselves simply assume it is a goodthing. But is it a wise method? It does contribute to the rise in the number of studentsattending class. But is there any proven co-relation between attendance and performance in acourse? The value of required attendance is now being questioned by more and more teachersand students.
上課點(diǎn)名制,如同一種古*俗,在中國的大學(xué)里非常普遍,許多教師甚至學(xué)生自己都認(rèn)為這種做法是對的。但這種方法是否明智?上課點(diǎn)名確實(shí)有助于學(xué)生出勤率的上升,但是到教室上課和這個(gè)學(xué)生在這門課上的學(xué)習(xí)表現(xiàn),兩者之間是否已證實(shí)有聯(lián)系?上課點(diǎn)名制度的合理性已受到越來越多的教師和學(xué)生的懷疑。
9 These days we often hear about....
They claim / argue / say that....
But has / is it?
Close examination / analysis / scrutiny doesn'tbear out the claim. / argument.
9.1 These days we often hear about "the classlesssociety". They say that all men are equal, and theycan enjoy the same educational and job opportunities, and the distinction between rich andpoor has lost. But has it? Close examination doesn't bear out the claim.
近來我們一直聽到關(guān)于“無階級社會”的說法。他們稱人人平等他們都享受同等的教育機(jī)會和工作機(jī)會;窮人和富人的界限已經(jīng)消失。果真如此嗎?略細(xì)分析一下,就證明這種觀點(diǎn)站不住腳。
9.2 These days I have heard many exasperated students and working adults alike express astrong desire to take an English course and a computer course. They believe that suchknowledge will enhance their job opportunities or promotion opportunities. But will it? Theinformation I've collected over last few years leads me to believe that this knowledge may beless useful than most people think.
這些日子我聽到不少因?qū)W習(xí)或工作而感到痛苦的學(xué)生和工人表示要上英語課或電腦課的強(qiáng)烈愿望。他們認(rèn)為這些知識會增加他們找工作、晉級的機(jī)會。是這樣嗎?從我近幾年得到的材料來看,我認(rèn)為這些知識并不像大多數(shù)人認(rèn)為的那么有用。
