2 Unit Three Attitude Towards Work www.dutpgz.cn 大连理工大学出版社

3 www.dutpgz.cn Attitude Towards Work Working attitude is one of those topics that are easy to talk about, tough to do but simple in nature. Confused yet? That’s, the concept is simple but doing is hard. Yet, those who have made the resolution to start working on improving their attitude often meet with success.

4 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Attitude Towards Work Of course, remember to throw in patience as a key ingredient. Besides, in this unit, you’re going to learn how to predict what comes next in your reading, a very useful reading technique.

5 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Attitude Towards Work Reading Skill Focus Words and Expressions Practical Reading Comprehensive Reading

6 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus Predicting What Comes Next Making predictions while you are reading is a useful technique that helps you understand a passage better. In a passage, you can often predict what comes next from a sentence, the content of a paragraph, or the structure of a paragraph. You can base your prediction on the grammatical structure of a sentence, linking words, or on the logical development of the content.

7 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus The following logical connectors are often used to indicate the relationship of the context, from which you can predict what comes next. Logical ConnectorsExamples Transition （转折） but, however, unfortunately, although, on the contrary, on the other hand Cause and Effect （因果） because, since, as a result (of), consequently, thus, therefore Supplement （递进） furthermore, not only... but also..., moreover, in addition Contrast （对比） while, whereas, in contrast Examplification （举例） for example, for instance, such as

8 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus A ． Guided Practice Sample 1 Read the sentence below about the use of humor and decide which sentence is most likely to follow. In the West, we often try to build immediate rapport through humor, but of course,________. A. some claim that humor cannot or should not be explained B. this is not universally seen to be appropriate in all contexts C. humor frequently contains an unexpected, often sudden, shift in perspective D. humor is essential to build a good business relationship

9 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus 该句首先说 “ 在西方，我们经常通过幽默来迅 速建立良好的关系 ” ，接下来是一个转折，因此 可以推断，后半句的意思应该否定前半句的说 法。因此 B 选项是正确的，意思是 “ 全世界范围 来看, 这并不是在所有场合下都适合的 ” 。

10 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus Sample 2 Read the passage below and decide what the next paragraph is likely to talk about. The general terms“high context”and“low context”(popularized by Edward Hall) are used to describe broad-brush cultural differences between societies. High context refers to societies or groups where people have close connections over a long period of time. Many aspects of cultural behavior are not made explicit because most members know what to do and what to think from years of interaction with each other. Your family is probably an example of a high context environment.

11 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus The next paragraph is most likely to talk about __________. A. high context environment B. family traditions C. low context D. cultural differences 本文第一段谈到了社会文化差异可以用两个术 语 “ 高语境 ” 和 “ 低语境 ” 来表述。第二段解释了什么 是 “ 高语境 ” 。因此，从文章结构来看，下一段应该 介绍什么是 “ 低语境 ” ，所以正确答案为 C

12 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus B. Challenge Yourself Challenge 1 Read the paragraph below about humor in advertising and decide which sentence is most likely to follow. Many of the most memorable ad campaigns around tend to be funny. Advertisers use this strategy to attract customers to their product. The best products to sell using humor tend to be those that consumers have to think the least about. Products that are relatively inexpensive, and often consumable, can be represented without providing a lot of facts, and that’s where there’s room for humor. A

13 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus A.People will pay more attention to a humorous commercial than a factual or serious one, opening themselves up to be influenced. B. Candy, food, alcohol, tobacco and toys/entertainment related products have proven to benefit the most from humor in their campaigns. C. Humor in advertising tends to improve brand recognition, but does not improve product recall, message credibility, or buying intentions.

14 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus Challenge 2 Read the passage below about the American way of raising children and choose the best sentence to fill each gap. The job of raising children is a tough one. Children don’t come with an instruction manual. And each child is different. So parents sometimes pull their hair out in frustration, not knowing what to do. But in raising children—as in all of life— what we do is influenced by our culture. Naturally then, American parents teach their children basic American values.

15 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Reading Skill Focus （ 1 ） From infancy, each child may get his or her own room. As children grow,they gain more freedom to make their own choices. Teenagers choose their own forms of entertainment, as well as the friends to share them with. （ 2 ） Of course, many young adults still seek their parents’advice and approval for the choices they make （ 3 ） C E A

16 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading Text A Why are Some People Unhappy in Their Jobs Suggested Reading Time: 6 min. 1. Why are so many people unhappy in their jobs? There are two primary reasons. First, some people are convinced that earning a living is wasting time that they could spend enjoying themselves or uncovering their true talents. 为什么有如此多的人不喜欢自己的工作？究其原 因主要有两个。第一个原因是，有些人深信，每 天为了生计而工作，没有时间享受人生或发挥天 赋，极大地浪费了自己的人生 翻译

17 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading 2. If this is the case with you, recall your last long vacation. Was it two weeks of complete enjoyment? More likely it was a week and a half of fun in the sun, with another half a week of“Boy, I can’t wait to get back to work.” 翻译 如果你也是这样认为，回顾一下在过去你曾度过的 漫长假期。在两个星期里，你有没有完全沉浸于享 乐当中？很有可能是，在一个半星期的时间里，你 在美丽的阳光下尽情地开心，而在余下的半个星期 里，你会不厌其烦地自言自语， “ 天啊！我迫不及待 地想回去上班。 ”

18 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading If you didn’t feel such vacation blues, imagine taking a leave of absence. You could use it to work on a novel, enroll in classes or just sit around watching TV. At the end of three months, in all likelihood, your self-esteem would be at an all-time low. 翻译 如果你没有经历过这样的假期忧郁，那么你可以设想 离开一段时间出去度假。你可以利用这段假期认真地 阅读一部小说，或报名参加一些培训课程，或无所事 事地看电视。在三个月的假期即将结束时，你的自尊 很有可能已经达到了你人生中的最低点。 blues 抑郁，沮丧 enroll 注册；加入 all-time low 空前地低

19 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading While all work and no play is not good, all play and no work is disastrous. We need to feel we are accomplishing something. We also need some form of order in our lives. 翻译 然而，只知道埋头工作，不知道放松身心 是不可取的，而只知道享乐，不知道努力 工作也会带来恶果。人需要有种使命感。 人也需要遵循一定的秩序来生活

20 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading 3. The second and perhaps more prevalent reason for people not to like their work is that they feel trapped. Once you’ve been at a company for five years and have a spouse, a mortgage and a child, you often feel you have very little choice about jumping ship if things aren’t turning out as you’d planned. A steady paycheck can be the biggest manacle of all.People resent having to do something because they have no other choice. spouse 配偶 mortgage 抵押 贷款 jump ship 跳槽 manacle 镣铐

21 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading 人们厌倦工作的第二个原因，也许是一个更加普遍的 原因，是他们觉得自己被工作束缚了。一旦参加了工作， 并在一家公司工作了五个年头以后，找到了自己的生活 伴侣，之后支付按揭贷款，再之后要生儿育女。如果很 多事情没有按照你的计划进行，你常常会发现你别无选 择，难下 “ 贼 ” 船。一份稳定的收入反而可能成了最大的 束缚。人们极其厌恶由于别无选择而必须去做某件事情 翻译

22 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading 4. If you find yourself resenting your job because you can’t afford to quit, it may be time to prepare what one career counselor humorously calls a “cyanide capsule”. cyanide capsule 氰化物胶囊 翻译 如果你发现你自己因担负不起辞职的后 果，而对目前的工作产生反感，也许你 该为自己准备一些被某位职业顾问幽默 地称之为 “ 氰化物胶囊 ( 有剧毒 )” 的东西了

23 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading He recalls spy movies in which the secret agent has such a capsule hidden somewhere on his body. If he’s captured and tortured unbearably, he has an option. And having an option gives him the strength to hold on a little longer in the hope that the situation may change. 翻译 他（职业顾问）想起了一部关于间谍的电影，影片中 的那名地下特工人员将氰化物胶囊藏在自己身体的某 个部位。当他不幸被捕，却无法忍受酷刑时，他可以 选择服毒。这样的选择使他能继续支撑下去，希望情 况会有所转机

24 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading 5. Rather than cyanide, your option takes the form of an up-to-date résumé. You might take a weekly glance through the help-wanted section, and make some visits to industry functions where low-key networking can take place. industry 行业 function 重大的社交聚会；功能 low-key 低调的 翻译 你的选择当然不是 “ 氰化物胶囊 ” 而是一份全新 的求职履历书。你很可能要花上一个星期的 时间浏览招聘版上的所有招工信息，往返于 各个行业部门之间，这些部门并不是很看重 “ 关系 ”

25 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading You’re not giving up on your current job. Rather, you are. If things get unbearable at work, you could jump ship. Being in this position can do wonders for your attitude. It allows you to enjoy your work since, in reality, you are there only because you want to be. 翻译 你不是在放弃目前从事的工作，相反，你是在给自己 创造一个选择的机会。如果你对目前的工作难以忍受， 那么这意味着你可以跳槽了。这样的态度创造出奇迹。 事实上，因为这是一份你想从事的工作，你才能从中 享受到乐趣。

26 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading 6. At the core of adopting a positive attitude to your workplace is,above all, assuming responsibility for your own situation. Most people feel controlled by their environment, but they really aren’t. They have to learn to manage that environment so they can get from it what they need. 翻译 用积极的态度对待工作是解决自身状况的关键。 许多人觉得受制于环境。但是事实并非如此。人 们必须学会如何应对所处的环境，才能从中获得 所想要得到的乐趣

50 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading Text B Enthusiasm Leads to Success Suggested Reading Time: 6 min. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. —Ralph Waldo Emerson 1. We’ve all had to work and do things that we did not especially enjoy. Usually, some people would tell us to be more enthusiastic.“You’ll have more fun,”they would say. Well ， they were partly right.

51 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading 翻译 人人都得工作，去做一些我们并不太想做的事。总有 人会告诉我们要热情地投入工作。他们会说， “ 你会因 此获得更多的乐趣。 ” 没错，他们的话有一定道理 2. Being enthusiastic about something means being excited about a given project. Enthusiasm entails having a strong interest in the task at hand.

52 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading If you decided to learn a new language, which is not easy by any account, you would have to dedicate yourself wholeheartedly to the cause. Anything less would result in failure. 翻译 充满热情，意味着对某个工作项目感到兴奋，充满热 情就是对手头的工作产生强烈的兴趣。就好像你决定 学一门新的语言 ( 无论如何，这不是件容易的事 ) 一样， 你必须全身心地投入。任何懈怠都会使你功亏一篑 by any account 无论如何

53 大连理工大学出版社 www.dutpgz.cn Comprehensive Reading What is Real Enthusiasm? 3. In your quest for success, enthusiasm means that you believe deeply in what the company is doing. You also believe that your job is important and contributes to the cause. It means that you’re willing to work your butt off to achieve the company’s goals. work one’s butt off 拼命工作 翻译 什么是真正的热情 ? 在你寻求成功的过程中，热情意味着你对公司所做的一切 深信不疑。你也相信你的工作很重要，你为公司的事业做 贡献。这就是说，为了达到公司的目的，你要拼尽全力
