13、未有的方式齊心協(xié)力，共同承擔(dān)大量的工程項(xiàng)目。通過(guò)電子郵件與國(guó)外的人通信、交換文件已成為司空見(jiàn)慣的事情，唯一的障礙是時(shí)區(qū)的不同。 但是，另一方面，閱讀電子郵件也會(huì)吞噬我們相當(dāng)多的工作時(shí)間。有時(shí)，我們大部分的時(shí)間和精力都用于閱讀未經(jīng)索要而寄來(lái)的郵件以及刪除垃圾郵件。不過(guò)，我所收到的許多未經(jīng)索要的郵件都還值得一讀，不分青紅皂白地將它們?nèi)縿h除顯得有些魯莽。畢竟，我收到的許多郵件都來(lái)自我的同事和上級(jí)。在我看來(lái)，電子郵件有助于緩和辦公室里的等級(jí)觀念.通過(guò)電子郵件向老板提些建議比面對(duì)面的交談容易得多。但是不利之處在于，如果電子郵件被曲解，會(huì)導(dǎo)致傷害以及對(duì)別人的冒犯。電子郵件是福也是禍。用得好，它可以帶來(lái)許

14、多益處； 用得不好，它也會(huì)招致許多麻煩。The effect that e-mail has on our professional and personal life is mind-boggling.

17、my opinion, e-mail may help flatten hierarchies in an office setting. It is far easier to make suggestions to our bosses via e-mail than it is to do so in a face-to-face talk. But the downside of it is that e-mail, if misinterpreted, may result in some hurt feelings, and offenses. E-mail can be a bl

18、essing or a curse. Used properly, e-mail can offer great advantages. Used poorly, it can cause enormous troubleUnit 5在現(xiàn)代社會(huì)，盡管社會(huì)進(jìn)步，物質(zhì)豐富，人們總感到有些地方不對(duì)勁，但卻又難以明確指出到底問(wèn)題出在哪兒?？仗?，沒(méi)有歸屬感，缺乏穩(wěn)定的社會(huì)關(guān)系似乎都成為人們略感不快的來(lái) 由。人們對(duì)于快樂(lè)這個(gè)棘手的話題，似乎都有共識(shí)：若問(wèn)及人們生活怎樣，他們會(huì)談及他們的家人、工作等而非僅僅是回答他們的薪水多少。對(duì)他們而言，生活的質(zhì)量比薪水的數(shù)量 更加重要。而政治家們卻對(duì)此難以理解，為這些難

19、以測(cè)量的家庭價(jià)值觀念而感到困惑。實(shí)際上，政府可以發(fā)揮積極地作用來(lái)響應(yīng)人們對(duì)于快樂(lè)幸福的渴望。最終，整個(gè)社會(huì)的幸福需要我們大家共同參與，確實(shí)，參與本身就能帶來(lái)快樂(lè)。In modern societies, despite the social progress and prosperity. People always feel that there is something not quite right. However, it is hard for them to put a finger on it. A feeling of emptiness and not belonging,

20、a lack of defined solid relationship seem to be the sources of unha ppiness. People all agree on the great conundrum of personal happiness: when asked how they are, they will answer in terms of their family life and work life rather than just what they are paid. For them, the quality of life means m

As a matter of fact, the government can take a provocative role to respond to the yearning for happiness .Unit 6本文體現(xiàn)了作者對(duì)全球化肯定的態(tài)度，但也表達(dá)了作者對(duì)全球化所

22、帶來(lái)的挑戰(zhàn)的焦慮。全球化在國(guó)際范圍內(nèi)促進(jìn)了經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)，使富有的國(guó)家持續(xù)發(fā)展， 在其他地方減少貧困。 因?yàn)閲?guó)家經(jīng)濟(jì)相互依賴的程度越來(lái)越高，在各國(guó)尋求進(jìn)步與安全的過(guò)程中，合作就變得至關(guān)重要。然而，問(wèn)題是近來(lái)人們似乎已忘記了國(guó)際合作的價(jià)值。我們從歷史的教訓(xùn)中知道，忽略國(guó)際法則、協(xié)議以及慣例就意味著全球化的大逆轉(zhuǎn)。This essay embodies the author 'pssitive attitude toward globalization, but it also conveys his worries about the challenges brought about by g

23、lobalization. Globalization enhanced economic growth at an international level, sustaining the expansion in rich countries and reducing poverty in the rest of the world. Since national economies have become increasingly interdependent, cooperation becomes crucial in the pursuit of progress and secur

24、ity. Nevertheless, the problem is that the value of international cooperation seems to have been forgotten lately. History teaches us that bypassing international laws, agreements and institutions means incurring the reversal of globalization.Unit 7名家總是樹(shù)敵眾多。幾乎每周都能看到所謂的專家名流身敗名裂，一敗涂地。比如非常得寵的歷史學(xué)家安布羅斯就被

Yet there are two big arguments in favor of what they do.First, they help to circulate ideas, by giving

28、a chance to educated laypeople to get information and universities a chance to pay back some of their debt to the societies. Secondly, they help to keep talented people in academia. Fundamentally, the besetting sin of American academia lies in hyper-specialization. And the market does work. Those di
