(Para. 1),We take no pride in our educational achievement because we have inadequately prepared students for the real world.,Reason: At Brown, during the four years, students have formed the belief that failure leaves no record, while in the real world failure marks you.,Two different attitudes toward errors. (Para. 2),At Brown, students defend their errors by arguing about:,In the real world, graduates had better not defend their errors but learn from them.,A. why their errors were not errors;,B. why mediocre work was excellent;,C. why they could take pride in their poor presentation.,College is an altogether forgiving world.

When the deadline was missed, professors pretended not to care.,C. Boring talks were considered to be important.,D. Unlabored writing was commented on.,E. Dull students were treated as if they were smart.,The reason why professors did all this was not that they wanted to be liked by students, but that professors did not want to be bothered and pretense was the easy way out.,Prof. Daniels viewpoint. (Para. 6),College has deprived students of adequate preparation for the real world.,The ending of the speech. (Para. 7-8),Conclusion: On this commencement day, we professors have nothing to take pride in.,B. Advice for graduates:,a. Dont act toward your co-workers and bosses as you have acted toward us.,b.

Everyone has to take midterms and finals.,E. No teachers have “pretended not to care” when deadlines are not kept.,College is not “easy, free, forgiving, attentive, comfortable, interesting, unchallenging fun” to her.,Idas conclusion: (Para. 5),Confronting difficulty by quitting leaves you changed. (Line 10),leave sb. + adj./ v-ed/prep.phrase: leave 后可接复合宾语，表示“使处于某种状态”。,译 文,Example,He left the door unlocked when he went out last night.,他昨晚出去时没锁门。,He felt tired and left the problem unsolved last night.,他昨天夜里感到非常疲劳, 所以问题也没解出来。,Example,The fox mom went out for food, leaving all her hungry kids waiting at home.,狐狸妈妈外出找食了，留了 一屋子嗷嗷待哺的小狐狸。,Being in a hurry, he left all the windows open.,因为走得匆忙，他把窗子都没关。,Confronting difficulty by quitting leaves you changed. (Line 10),知难而退会使你变成另一个人。,When you tossed on our desks writing upon which you had not labored, we read it and even responded, as though you earned a response. ( Line25),译 文,本句是一个复合句，主句是 we read it and even responded。 句首 when 引导时间状语从句, 该从句的谓语动词tossed 在句中用作及物动词，它的宾语是writing，upon which you had not labored 是定语从句，修饰前面的 writing。主句后面的 as though 引导了另一个状语从句，表示方式。,他们为建造这个体育馆辛 勤工作了好几年。,They labored for years to build this auditorium.,我下功夫学了两年英语 。,I labored at English for two years.,Example,labor,v. work or try hard 干苦活，努力，多指艰苦、 紧张劳累的体力劳动，也可用于脑力劳动。,Example,这孩子正在动脑筋做一道数学难题。,The child is laboring over a difficult math problem.,编辑下大力气修改原稿，一直改到凌晨。,The editor labored over the manuscript till early morning.,他当顾问工程师挣得大笔的钱。,Hes earning a fortune as a consultant engineer.,她靠什么谋生？,How does she earn her living?,Example,earn,v. 赚（挣）钱，（应，使）获得，得到,Example,经过多年的努力，他终于赢得了她的芳心。,After years of effort, he finally earned her love.,她顺利地通过了考试，终于在大学赢得了一席之地。,Her success in the exam earned her a place at university.,When you tossed on our desks writing upon which you had not labored, we read it and even responded, as though you earned a response. ( Line25),当你们把根本没有花心思写的作业扔到我们桌上时，我们不仅拜读，甚至批改给出评语，好像你们值得这样的回应。,Despite your fantasies, it was not even that we wanted to be liked by you. It was that we did not want to be bothered, and the easy way out was pretense: smiles and easy Bs. (Line30),译 文,it was not even thatIt was that 根本不是， 而是,他解释说，根本不是他睡过了，而是公共汽车晚了。,He explained, it was not that he overslept. It was that the bus was late.,Example,医生非常乐意为病人提供他们想要的药物。这绝不是医生认为药是最佳治疗办法，而是医生处理病人更快的一种办法。,The doctors are too ready to provide patients with the medicine they require. It is not even that doctors think the medicine is the best treatment. It is that this is a quicker way for doctors to dispose of patients.,对这一切尽管你们可以想入非非，但我们决不是因为想要讨得你们的欢心，而是因为我们不想受到打扰。一个简单的办法就是作假：微笑，让你们轻轻松松都得B。,Despite your fantasies, it was not even that we wanted to be liked by you. It was that we did not want to be bothered, and the easy way out was pretense: smiles and easy Bs. (Line30),Few professors actually care whether or not they are liked by peer-paralyzed adolescents, fools so shallow as to imagine professors care not about education but about popularity. (Line47),红色的部分是此句的主句。主句谓语动词care 带了一个由whether 引导的宾语从句。peer-paralyzed adolescents指“那些非常在乎同龄人的评价而不会独立思考的年轻人（青少年）”。 foolspopularity在句中做adolescents的同位语, 其中imagine后为省略了连词that的宾语从句。care notbut“关心的不是而是”。,译 文,shallow,他们就宴会和服装进行肤浅的交谈。,They carried a shallow conversation about parties and clothes.,那时我太年轻无知，不懂什么 是爱情。,I was too young and shallow to understand love.,Example,adj. lacking deep or serious thinking 肤浅的、浅薄的,care not about but about,许多伟人关心的不是自己的利益而是全人类的利益。,Many great people care not about their own interests but about the interests of the whole human being.,Example,所关心的不是而是,Example,我们关心的不是效率而是质量。,We care not about the efficiency but about the quality.,他关心的不是多少人能来参加婚礼而是谁会来参加婚礼。,He cares not about how many people will come to his wedding, but about who will come.,很少有教授真正在乎他们是否会受到那些只能在同龄人眼中找到自我的年轻人的喜欢，这些年轻人是一些愚昧无知的人，竟然肤浅到会以为教授们关心的不是教育，而是自己的声望。,Few professors actually care whether or not they are liked by peer-paralyzed adolescents, fools so shallow as to imagine professors care not about education but about popularity. (Line47),When the going gets tough, the tough have to get down to work because, unlike what Neusner believes, college does not give “painless” solutions to mistakes. (Line31, Passage 2),该句中第一个“tough”意为“艰难的”，第二个“the tough” 指的是“顽强学习（刻苦用功）的学生”。,译 文,going,他是我在碰到困难时可以依靠的人。,He is the man I can depend on when the going gets tough.,她不到25岁就当上公司主管，发展的真不错！,She was a company director before she was 25; thats not bad going.,Example,n. rate of progress, travel, etc. 进展的速度，进行情况,他们对酒醉后驾车者十分严厉。,They are very tough on drunk drivers.,政府声称要对试图逃税者采取强硬态度。,The government has threatened to get tough with those people who try to avoid paying taxes.,Example,tough,adj. difficult 困难的;费力的 rough and hard 强硬的；粗暴的 able to endure hardship 能耐劳苦的。,Example,和他很难共事。,He is tough to work with.,煤矿工人都是能吃苦耐劳的。,Coal-miners are a tough breed.,When the going gets tough, the tough have to get down to work because, unlike what Neusner believes, college does not give “painless” solutions to mistakes . (Line31, Passage 2),当学习进展困难时，那些本来刻苦学习的人也得更加努力学习，因为大学并不像诺伊斯那所认为的那样，会给失误提供“省事的”解决办法。,Its ill-advised for you to believe what that stranger said.,ill-advised (Line 17, Para. 2),你真是没脑子，竟然会相信那个陌生人的话。,Translation,她太没脑子了，以至于会在几天前上 了一条陌生的手机短信的当。,She was so ill-advised that she swallowed the bait in a strange short message several days ago.,adj. not sensible or wise 没脑筋的, 不明智的,“ill-” is added to words, especially adjectives and past participles (过去分词), to add the meaning “badly” or “inadequately” 前缀ill一般与形容词和过去分词搭配使用，意为“糟 糕的”或“不充分的”。,Example,ill-informed (line 37, Para. 6),意为“not knowing about something” (无知的),ill-mannered,无礼貌的，举止粗鲁的,ill-bred,没有教养的, 粗野的,ill-fated,走恶运的, 注定倒霉的,ill-judged,判断失当的，时机不当的,ill-natured,脾气坏的，不厚道的,ill-timed,不适时的，不合时宜的,abuse (Line 18, Para. 2),v. 1) to say unkind, cruel, or rude things to or about 辱骂，诋毁,Dont abuse that young man any more.
