前言不搭后语-嗣怎么读

2020年10月26日发(作者:池州匠)


我知道你们在想什么,你们觉得我迷路了,马上就会有人走上台温和地把我带回我的座< br>位上。(掌声)。我在迪拜总会遇上这种事。“来这里度假的吗,亲爱的?”(笑声)“来探望孩
子的吗?这次要待多久呢?
恩,事实上,我希望能再待久一点。我在波斯湾这边生活和教书 已经超过30年了。(掌
声)这段时间里,我看到了很多变化。现在这份数据是挺吓人的,而我今天要和 你们说的是
有关语言的消失和英语的全球化。我想和你们谈谈我的朋友,她在阿布达比教成人英语。在< br>一个晴朗的日子里,她决定带她的学生到花园去教他们一些大自然的词汇。但最后却变成是
她在学 习所有当地植物在阿拉伯语中是怎么说的。还有这些植物是如何被用作药材,化妆品,
烹饪,香草。这些 学生是怎么得到这些知识的呢?当然是从他们的祖父母,甚至曾祖父母那
里得来的。不需要我来告诉你们 能够跨代沟通是多么重要。
but sadly, today, languages are dying at an unprecedented rate. a language dies
every 14 days. now, at the same time, english is the undisputed global language. could
there be a connection? well i dont know. but i do know that ive seen a lot of changes.
when i first came out to the gulf, i came to kuwait in the days when it was still
a hardship post. actually,
not that long ago. that is a little bit too early. but nevertheless, i was
recruited by the british council along with about 25
other teachers. and we were the first non-muslims to teach in the state schools
there in kuwait. we were brought to teach english because the government wanted to
modernize the country and empower the citizens through education. and of course, the
u.k. benefited from some of that lovely oil wealth. 但遗憾 的是,今天很多语言正在
以前所未有的速度消失。每14天就有一种语言消失,而与此同时,英语却无庸 置疑地成为全
球性的语言。这其中有关联吗?我不知道。但我知道的是,我见证过许多改变。初次来到海
湾地区时,我去了科威特。当时教英文仍然是个困难的工作。其实,没有那么久啦,这有点
太久 以前了。总之,我和其他25位老师一起被英国文化协会聘用。我们是第一批非穆斯林的
老师,在科威特 的国立学校任教。我们被派到那里教英语,是因为当地政府希望国家可以现
代化并透过教育提升公民的水 平。当然,英国也能得到些好处,产油国可是很有钱的。
okay. now this is the major change that ive seen -- how teaching english has
morphed from being a mutually
english-speaking nation on earth. and why not? after all, the best education --
according to the latest world university rankings -- is to be found in the universities
of the u.k. and the u.s. so everybody wants to have an english education, naturally.
but if youre not a native speaker, you have to pass a test.
言归正传,我见过最大的改变,就是英语教学的蜕变如何从一个互惠互利的行为 变成今
天这种大规模的国际产业。英语不再是学校课程里的外语学科,也不再只是英国的专利。英
语(教学)已经成为所有英语系国家追逐的潮流。何乐而不为呢?毕竟,最好的教育来自于
最好的大学 ,而根据最新的世界大学排名,那些名列前茅的都是英国和美国的大学。所以自
然每个人都想接受英语教 育,但如果你不是以英文为母语,你就要通过考试。
now can it be right to reject a student on linguistic ability
well, i dont think so. we english teachers reject them all the time. we put a
stop sign, and we stop them in their tracks. they cant pursue their dream any longer,
till they get english. now let me put it this way, if i met a dutch
speaker who had the cure for cancer, would i stop him from entering my british
university? i dont think so. but indeed, that is exactly what we do. we english


teachers are the
gatekeepers. and you have to satisfy us first that your english is good enough.
now it can be dangerous to give too much power to a narrow segment of society. maybe
the barrier would be too universal.
但仅凭语言能力就拒绝学生这样对吗?譬如如果你碰到一位天才计算 机科学家,但他会
需要有和律师一样的语言能力吗?我不这么认为。但身为英语老师的我们,却总是拒绝 他们。
我们处处设限,将学生挡在路上,使他们无法再追求自己的梦想,直到他们通过考试。现在
容我换一个方式说,如果我遇到了一位只会说荷兰话的人,而这个人能治愈癌症,我会阻止
他进入我的 英国大学吗?我想不会。但事实上,我们的确在做这种事。我们这些英语老师就
是把关的。你必须先让我 们满意,使我们认定你的英文够好。但这可能是危险的。把太多的
权力交由这么小的一群人把持,也许会 令这种障碍太过普及。
okay. but, i hear you say, what about the research? its all in english. so the
books are in english, the journals are done in english, but that is a self-fulfilling .
it feeds the english requirement. and so it goes on. i ask you, what happened to
translation? if you think about the islamic
于是,我听到你们问但是研究呢?研究报告都要用英文。”的确,研究论著和期刊都要用
英文发表,但这只是一种理所当然的现象。有英语要求,自然就有英语供给,然后就这么循
环下去。我 倒想问问大家,为什么不用翻译呢?想想伊斯兰的黄金时代,当时翻译盛行,人
们把拉丁文和希腊文翻译 成阿拉伯文或波斯文,然后再由拉伯文或波斯文翻译为欧洲的日耳
曼语言以及罗曼语言。于是文明照亮了 欧洲的黑暗时代。但不要误会我的意思,我不是反对
英语教学或是在座所有的英语老师。我很高兴我们有 一个全球性的语言,这在今日尤为重要。
但我反对用英语设立障碍。难道我们真希望世界上只剩下600 种语言,其中又以英文或中文
为主流吗?我们需要的不只如此。那么我们该如何拿捏呢?这个体制把智能 和英语能力画上
等号这是相当武断的。
and i want to remind you that the giants upon whose
shoulders todays stand did not have to have
english, they didnt have to pass an english test. case in point, einstein. he,
by the way, was considered remedial at school because he was, in fact, dyslexic. but
fortunately for the world, he did not have to pass an english test. because they didnt
start until 1964 with toefl, the american test of english. now its exploded. there
are lots and lots of tests of english. and millions and millions of students take
these tests every year. now you might think, you and me, those fees arent bad, theyre
okay, but they are prohibitive to so many millions of poor people. so immediately,
were rejecting them.
我想要提醒你们,扶持当代知识分子的这些“巨人肩膀不必非得具有英文能力,他们不
需要通过英语考试。爱因斯坦就是典型的例子。顺便说一下,他在学校还曾被认为需要课外
补习,因为他 其实有阅读障碍。但对整个世界来说,很幸运的当时他不需要通过英语考试,因
为他们直到1964年才 开始使用托福。现在英语测验太泛滥了,有太多太多的英语测验,以及
成千上万的学生每年都在参加这些 考试。现在你会认为,你和我都这么想,这些费用不贵,
价钱满合理的。但是对数百万的穷人来说,这些 费用高不可攀。所以,当下我们又拒绝了他
们。 it brings to mind a headline i saw recently: education: the great divide. now
i get it, i understand why people would focus on english. they want to give their
children the best chance in life. and to do that, they need a western education.
because, of course, the best jobs go to people out of the


western universities, that i put on earlier. its a circular thing.
这使我想起最近看到的一 个新闻标题:“教育:大鸿沟”现在我懂了。我了解为什么大家
都重视英语,因为他们希望给孩子最好的 人生机会。为了达成这目的,他们需要西方教育。
毕竟,不可否认,最好的工作都留给那些西方大学毕业 出来的人。就像我之前说的,这是一
种循环。
okay. let me tell you a story about two scientists, two english scientists. they
were doing an experiment to do with genetics and the forelimbs and the hind limbs
of animals. but they couldnt get the results they wanted. they really didnt know what
to do, until along came a german scientist who realized that they were using two words
for forelimb and hind limb, whereas genetics does not differentiate and neither does
german. so bingo, problem solved. if you cant think a thought, you are stuck.
but if another language can think that thought, then, by cooperating, we can achieve
and learn so much more. 好,我跟你们说一个关于两位科学家的故事:有两位英国科学家
在做一项实验,是关于遗传 学的,以及动物的前、后肢。但他们无法得到他们想要的结果。
他们真的不知道该怎么办,直到来了一位 德国的科学家。他发现在英文里前肢和后肢是不同
的二个字,但在遗传学上没有区别。在德语也是同一个 字。所以,叮!问题解决了。如果你
不能想到一个念头,你会卡在那里。但如果另一个语言能想到那念头 ,然后通过合作我们可
以达成目的,也学到更多。
我的女儿从科威特来到英格兰, 她在阿拉伯的学校学习科学和数学。那是所阿拉伯中学。
在学校里,她得把这些知识翻译成英文,而她在 班上却能在这些学科上拿到最好的成绩。这
告诉我们,当外籍学生来找我们,我们可能无法针对他们所知 道的给予赞赏,因为那是来自
于他们母语的知识。当一个语言消失时,我们不知道还有什么也会一并失去 。
this is -- i dont know if you saw it on cnn recently -- they gave the heroes award
to a young kenyan shepherd boy who couldnt study at night in his village like all
the village children,篇二:杨澜ted演讲稿中英文
yang lan: the generation thats remaking china
the night before i was heading for scotland, i was invited to host the final of
chinas got talent show in shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium. guess
who was the performing guest?susan boyle. and i told her, im going to scotland the
next day. she sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in chinese.
[chinese]so its not like hello or thank you, that ordinary stuff. it means green onion
for free. why did she say that? because it was a line from our chinese parallel susan
boyle -- a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in shanghai, who loves singing
western opera, but she didnt understand any english or french or italian, so she
managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in chinese. (laughter) and the
last sentence of nessun dorma that she was singing in the stadium was green onion
for free. so
[as] susan boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together. that was
hilarious.
so i guess both susan boyle and this vegetable vendor in shanghai belonged to
otherness. they were the least expected to be successful in the business called
entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through. and a show and a
platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams. well, being different is not
that difficult. we are all different from different perspectives. but i think being


different is good, because you present a different point of view. you may have the
chance to make a difference.
my generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic
transformation of china that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years. i
remember that in the year of 1990,when i was graduating from college, i was applying
for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in beijing, great wall
sheraton -- its still there. so after being interrogated by this japanese manager
for a half an hour, he finally said, so, miss yang, do you have any questions to ask
me?i summoned my courage and poise and said,yes, but could you let me know, what
actually do you sell? i didnt have a clue what a sales department was about in a
five-star hotel. that was the first day i set my foot in a five-star hotel.
my life, and i feel proud of that. but then we are also so fortunate to witness
the transformation of the whole country. i was in beijings bidding for the olympic
games. i was representing the shanghai expo. i saw china embracing the world and vice
versa. but then sometimes im thinking, what are todays young generation up to? how
are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the
future of china, or at large, the world?
so making a living is not that easy for young people. college graduates are not
in short
urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 u.s. dollars
a month, while the average rent is above $$500. so what do they do? they have to share
space -- squeezed in very limited space to save money -- and they call themselves
tribe of ants. and for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment,
they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment.
that ratio in americawould only cost a couple five years to earn, but in china its
30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.
so through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young
people care most about. social justice and government accountability runs the first
in what they the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development
have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private
it has aroused huge anger and frustrationamong our young generation. sometimes people
get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest. so when these
incidents are reported more and more frequently on the internet,people cry for the
government to take actions to stop this.
so the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new
regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced
demolition from local governments
to the court. similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is a hot topic
on the internet. we heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food. and guess
what, we have faked beef. they have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece
of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like then lately, people are
very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found
[refining] cooking oil from restaurant slop. so all these things have aroused a huge
outcry from the internet. and fortunately, we have seen the government responding


more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.
while young people seem to be very sure about their participation in public
policy- making, but sometimes theyre a little bit lost in terms of what they want for
their personal life. china is soon to pass the u.s. as the number one market for luxury
brands -- thats not including the chinese expenditures in europe and elsewhere. but
you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 u.s. dollars.
theyre not rich at all. theyre taking those bags and clothes as a sense of identity
and social status. and this is a girl explicitly saying on a tv dating show that she
would rather cry in a bmw than smile on a of course, we do have young
people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a bmw or [on] a bicycle.
so happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years.
happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also,
its about the environment. people are thinking about the following questions: are
we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher gdp? how are we going
to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep
sustainability and stability? and also, how capable is the systemof self-correctness
to keep more people contentwith all sorts of friction going on at the same time?i
guess these are the questions people are going to answer. and our younger generation
are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed
themselves.
thank you very much.
杨澜ted演讲:重塑中国的一代 中文演讲稿
在来爱尔兰的前一晚,我应邀主持了中国达人秀在上海的体育场和八万现场观众。 猜
猜谁是表演嘉宾?——苏珊大妈。我告诉她,“我明天要去爱尔兰了。” 她歌声犹如天籁。而
且她还可以说点中文。
“送你葱。” 这不是“你好、谢谢” 之类的日常用语。这组词翻译过来是免费给你青葱,
为什么她要说这个呢?因为这是我们中国版的苏珊大 妈很有名的一句歌词。
这位五十几岁的大妈在上海以贩卖蔬菜为生。她喜欢西方的歌剧,但 是她不懂任何外语,
所以她就把中文蔬菜名填做歌词。当她在体育场里 唱到今夜无人入眠的最后一句时 ,她唱的
是“送你葱”。苏珊大妈和全场八万观众一起唱“送你葱”,多有意思的场面。
我想苏珊大妈和这位在上海做蔬菜买卖的都属于不同寻常的人。在业界所谓的娱乐圈,
他们最不可能取得 成功,但是他们的勇气和才华让他们成功了。一场秀,一个平台给了他们
实现梦想的舞台。
与众不同不难,从不同的角度看我们都是不一样的。我认为与众不同是好的,因为你有
不同的看法,这给 你机会去产生不同的影响。
我们这代人有幸见证和参与了过去二三十年中国的历史性的转型。
我记得在九十年代,刚 从大学毕业的我申请了一份在北京五星级酒店销售部的工作。在
日本经理一个半小时的面试后,他最后说 :“杨小姐,你有什么问题要问我吗?”我鼓起勇气,
定定神然后问道:“您能告诉我销售部到底销售什 么?”我对于五星级酒店的销售部的职责一
点都摸不着头脑。那是我在五星级酒店的第一天。
同时,我和上千名大学女生参加了一场由中国中央电视台举办的史无前例的公开选拔。
制作人告诉我们他们想找一位可爱,天真,美丽的新面孔。当轮到我时,我站起来说道,“为
什么女孩在 电视上必须是漂亮,甜美,无邪的,像个花瓶?为什么她们不能有她们的想法,
她们自己的声音?”


我想我一定得罪了评委。但是事实上,我的发言给他们留下了深刻的印象。接下 来我进
入了第二轮的选拔,然后是第三轮,第四轮。在经过七轮的选拔后,我胜出了。成为了一个
国家电视台黄金时段节目的主持人。
不管你们相不相信,那是中国电视上第一个节目可以 允许主持人自由发挥而不是去读审
查后的稿子。这个节目的观众人数高达两到三千万。
几年后,我决定去美国哥伦比亚大学进修。之后我有了自己的传媒公司,这是在我刚毕
业的时候想都不敢 想的。
我和我的团队做了很多事情。在过去的这些年,我采访了上千人。有时候有年轻人走 过
来对我说:“杨澜,你改变了我的生活。”我也为此而自豪。
