Lesson 1
II. Translation
Put the following passages into Chine表皮葡萄球菌.
1. For English is a killer. It is English that has killed off Cumbric, Cornish, Norn and Manx. There are still parts of the islands where sizeable communities speak languages that were there before English. Yet English is everywhere in everyday u and understood by all or virtually all, constituting such a threat to the three remaining Celtic languages, Irish, Scottish Gaelic, that their long-term future must very greatly at risk.
因为英语是个杀手。正是英语造成了康瑞克、康尼施、诺恩、曼科斯等语言的消亡。在其中一部分岛上还有相当多的人使用在英语到来之前就已存在的语言。然而，英语在日常生活中无处不在。所有的人或几乎所有的人都懂英语。英语对现存的凯尔特语——爱尔兰语、苏格兰盖尔语及威尔士语的威胁是如此之大，它们的未来岌岌可危。村庙
2. He also associated such policies with a prejudice which he calls linguisticism (a condition parallel to racism and xism). As Phillipson es it, leading institutions and individuals within the predominantly "white" English-speaking world, have (by design or default) encouraged or at least tolerated—and certainly have not oppod—the hegemonic spread of English, a spread which began some three centuries ago as economic and colonial expansion.
同时，他认为这些政策和他称之为语言歧视（和种族歧视、性别歧视的情况类似）的偏见密切相关。在菲利普森看来，在以白人英语为主导的世界，最重要的机构和个人（有意或无意地）鼓励或者至少是容忍了（肯定没有反对）英语霸权主义式的传播。这种传播始于三个世纪之前的经济及殖民扩张。
3. By and large, we now view them as more or less benign, and often talk with admiration and appreciation about the cultures associated with them and what they have given to the world. And it is fairly safe to do this, becau none of them now pos much of a threat.
总的来说，我们现在或多或少地把这些语言看作有利的语言。在谈到与之相关的文化及其为世界所做的贡献时，我们常怀有崇敬与赞赏，而且这样做也没有太大的风险，因为这些语言现在已不会构成什么威胁。
4. Yet many people e English as a blessing. Let me leave aside here the obvious advantages possd by any world language, such as a large communicative network, a strong literary and media complex, and a powerful cultural and educational apparatus.
然而，许多人把英语看成是一件幸事。在此，我暂且不谈任何世界语言所具有的明显优势，例如广泛的通信网，强大的文化传媒体系，及强有力的文化教育机构。
调查提纲
clumsy月饼炒辣椒5. English-speaking South Africans of British descent were not particularly strong in opposing the apartheid regime, and the black opposition, who members had many languages, was at first weak and disorganized.
讲英语的南非英国后裔并不强烈反对种族隔离政权，而黑人反对力量，其成员讲多种语言，在初期软弱无力且缺乏组织。
6. Such symbolism suggests that the urs of the world's lingua franca should ek to benefit as fully as possible from the blessing and as far as possible avoid invoking the cur.
这一象征表明这种世界通用语的使用者应充分发掘这一幸事为我们带来的好处,同时尽能避免招来灾难。

1. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, who coined the term flow, which adherents of positive psychology would u to describe the job-induced highs, says that distinction is a fal one. "Anything can be enjoyable if the elements of flow are prent," he writes in his book Good Business. "Within that framework, doing a emingly boring job can be a source of greater fulfillment than one ever thought possible."
米哈里·奇凯因特米哈里认为这种区分是错误的。他发明了“强感受” (flow)这个说法, 信奉正面心理学的人常用此词来描述由工作而引发的兴奋状态。在《称心如意的工作》一书中他写道: “只要存在强感受因素, 任何事情都能给我们带来愉悦。根据这一观点, 从事一份表面看上去枯燥的工作却会给人们带来想象不到的更大的成就感。”
2. But neither the late 1990s boom nor the subquent bust had much impact in either direction, indicating that the state of worker happiness goes much deeper than the swings of the economy.
但是20世纪90年代后期的经济繁荣和随之而来的经济萧条都没有对员工的两种工作态度产生多大影啊, 这表明工人在工作中是否能获得快乐感有比经济形势更深层的原因。
