课文译文

寻找永久的爱情

健康的恋爱关系可以从情感、精神、身体和终生幸福等诸多方面提升你的生活质量。

单身固然有很多好处。但是当你准备好与人分享你的生活并想建立持久而有价值的恋爱关系，此时单身就非常令人沮丧。

对于许多人来说，找到共度余生的伴侣看起来就像一个不可能完成的任务，其实仍然可以通过学习找到永久的爱情，即便你曾有过短暂的恋爱史，或者对传统恋爱方式和网恋失去了兴趣。

寻找合适的爱情伴侣往往是艰辛的旅程。也许你成长于一个缺乏坚实而健康情感的家庭环境，你会怀疑爱情。或许你仅有一些短暂或夭折的爱情史，你不知道如何保持持久的恋爱关系。由于对于过往的问题悬而未决，你就可能会喜欢上不适合你的人并再次做出错误的决定。不管情况如何，相信在未来会有一份浪漫爱情为你而存在，这非常重要。

恋爱不可能是完美的，它需要付出很多努力、妥协以及积极解决冲突的意愿，这一点非常重要。为了寻找并建立值得保持的爱情，你可能需要审视自己对待约会和恋爱的错误观点，否则可能找不到永恒的爱情。

文化差异

现代化的交通与传播手段使世界变得越来越小，整个国际社会好似一个巨大的地球村。有着不同文化背景的村民们在文化交流和文化冲撞中和睦相处。

当代社会的任何一个民族，其先进文化从来都不是孤立的，而是与其他民族的文化进行广泛交流的产物。

当然，任何一个民族的文化，其根基与主流必须具有这个民族的鲜明特征。文化交流不是让外国文化吞没自己的文化，而是为了丰富和充实本民族的文化。

通过文化交流，不同的文化可以相互学习，相互影响。在文化领域里，相互

影响是一种非常复杂的现象。因此，吸取外国文化是一个入口、咀嚼和消化的过程。我们应该采取去伪存真、去粗取精、多出优进、抵御腐蚀的原则。我认为各种文化的不同特点和风格不会因此而消失，相反，不同的文化可以取长补短，互为补充。

我们在吸取外国文化优秀成果的同时，不能满足于一味模仿的做法。沉溺于简单的模仿会使自己失去创作力，无法达到新的艺术高度，无法向世界推出自己的优秀作品。新意是现代风格与传统风格的结合，是外国特色与本民族特色的结合，是艺术性与教育性的结合。

V. Writing Practice

Dear Frank,

I am terribly sorry to tell you that I have lost the valuable book you were so kind to lend me last week. I read it everyday and intended to finish it next month. Last night when I came to my room, it was nowhere to be found. I will try to recover it as soon as possible. If I fail to find it, I will get a new book for you.

But I am afraid it can never take the place of the old one. Old books are like old friends. Once lost, they can never be replaced. They are connected with cherished associations which the new ones can never have. And for this irrecoverable loss, I am to blame. I was so careless with my things. This is a warning to me to be more careful in the future.

Yours truly,

Jack

囊中羞涩的毕业一族

许多大学生对于寝室生活充满怨言：夏季，没有空调的寝室闷热无比，晚上11点就关寝。

然而，毕业后，当他们不得不将多达1/3的工资拿来支付一间破旧小屋的租金时，他们或许会怀念当初的寝室。

包括食品、水电煤气等生活必需品的价格上涨，也使大学毕业生们不得不精打细算每一分花销，以保持收支平衡。

面对高昂的生活开销，大学毕业生在支配个人收入时，要将每一分钱都用在

刀刃上。

在租金方面的花费，不要超过你个人收入的1/3。求职招聘网站HiAll求职帮的职业顾问Hao Qian称，如果租金只占你个人收入的1/4，那就更好了。

Hao Qian还提醒毕业生们应预留1/5的收入，用于社交活动。由于娱乐形式的改变，人们在社交方面的花费增多。例如，你新结识的朋友可能不会约你在廉价饭馆见面，而会选择在spa水疗会所碰头。

虽然生活开销高昂，许多高校毕业生还是想努力留在大城市。他们通常就职于金融、公关以及IT这些依靠城市繁荣的经济和技术来发展的行业。

Hao Qian建议这些毕业生尽量减少购物开销。

Hao Qian表示：“如果你不是从事公关或销售这类需要衣着光鲜的职业，你就不需要在衣物和饰品花费过多。购物方面的开销不要超过月收入的1/8。”

课文译文

微信：沟通的新时代

倘若你不知道微信为何物，你可能就不了解当今中国最新的移动通信趋势。微信（英语名称是WeChat）是由腾讯公司研发的一款多功能通信应用软件， 它结合了文本、语音和视频通信功能，类似西方流行的Talkbox软件。

微信给用户提供一种便捷省钱的与他人联系的方式。用户可以使用语音甚至视频短信进行交流。通过摇动手机搜索陌生人你还可以与之建立联系并聊天。只要能够联网，用户便可免费使用这些功能。

微信逐渐改变着人们的沟通方式。许多年轻人发现相对于传统短信方式，语音短信既时尚又有趣。大学新生使用该服务发布信息询问他们在新学校生活中遇到的问题，并关注附近微信使用者的回复。最近，越来越多的品牌商店都在试图申请微信账户与自己的目标消费者建立联系。例如，星巴克利用微信与消费者之间互动。有时它发送促销信息，或共享一条有趣的信息，让消费者体验“一对一”的交谈，即使它通常是随机或由机器自动回答。

现在我们很难给微信对于我们交流方式的影响下结论。可以肯定的是，传统的依靠手机直接对讲的方式似乎正迅速消失，而一种更生动的移动交流方式正蔓延开来。
