双语英语小故事：在巴西当公务员比中国吃香得多

2010-03-06T20:30:04+08:00

　　Late into the night, students diligently rehearse exam questions at dozens of schools in downtown Brasilia that offer people the chance for a better, more prosperous life--that of a Brazilian bureaucrat。

　　深夜，巴西利亚市区的几十间学校里，学生们还在孜孜不倦地练习考试题，这将使他们有机会过上更好、更富裕的生活——做巴西的政府公务员。

　　Generous pay, stability, and often easy hours will attract applications from as many as 10 million people this year for civil service jobs. Brazilians often refer to getting a government job as catching the "train of happiness."

　　高薪、稳定，再加上通常工作都很轻松，这在今年吸引了一千万人申请政府公务员的工作。巴西人通常把能吃上一碗公家饭称为搭上了“幸福列车”。

　　In Brazil, civil servants do very well, as the many luxurious homes with pools, servants and shiny cars in the capital Brasilia's residential areas show。

　　在巴西，公务员的待遇可是相当不错，从首都巴西利亚的居民区来看，很多人的家都非常奢侈，有游泳池、佣人和闪闪发亮的轿车。

　　There are an average of 700 applicants per job and some candidates study for years to pass an entry exam。

　　平均每个公务员职位有七百人竞争，一些人为了通过一个录取考试苦读了数年。

　　The problem is that Brazil's bloated public sector is a burden on business and the economy, leaving little money to invest in education or infrastructure. Rather than slashing jobs, the government is adding more。

　　问题是巴西膨胀的政府部门对商业及经济是一个负担，使得投入教育和基础设施建设的资金所剩无几。政府不但没有大幅度削减职位，反而增加了更多。

　　Despite an economic boom in recent years, Brazil ranks poorly in international competitiveness comparisons, due mostly to an unwieldy state apparatus that consumes about 38 percent of gross domestic product。

　　尽管近年来经济有所增长，但巴西在国际竞争力比较中的排名仍然较低，主要是因为臃肿的政府机构消耗了38%的国内生产总值。

　　An accountant or administrator in one of the gray-green ministries that flank the main avenue of Brasilia's government quarters can earn more than 10,000 reais a month, or roughly 20 times the minimum wage。

　　在巴西利亚政府区主路旁的灰绿色部委办公楼里，一个会计或行政人员每个月可以挣到一万多雷阿尔，大概是最低工资的20倍。

　　A police inspector or public prosecutor can bring home twice as much, the equivalent of around $150,000 a year. In contrast, Brazil's per capita national income stands well below $10,000 annually。

　　警督或检察官拿到手的是这个的两倍，相当于每年15万美元左右，而巴西的年均国民收入远远低于一万美元。

　　In addition, most civil servants cannot be fired unless they break the law and many receive pensions worth 100 percent of their last salary upon retirement。

　　而且，大多数公职人员不会被解雇，除非他们违反法律，许多人在退休后可以拿到的养老金都相当于他们离职时的全额薪资。

机会与挑战 Opportunities and challenges

2010-02-07T15:06:14+08:00

Opportunities and Challenges

First, I would like to know, what does your destiny offer you? Happiness, wisdom, a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon, he would probably had said,”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity.”

Needless to say, one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 2008 Olympic Games. Till now, we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen? New roads, new subway lines, public-exercising equipments with beautiful colors, large blocks of grass fields, and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.

Other than those, there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example, more and more people will get to know China. I’m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment, for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more, Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation of Chinese youth with the Olympic values and the Olympic spirit. Now that we have seen so many advances, could you even imagine us losing the holding rights?

I’ve already said a lot about the Olympics and China. But I think everyone should use some time to think of this question, ”Does the Olympic Games have any special meaning to you?”

For us, I mean the Chinese youth, 2008 Olympic Games is a tremendous gift. Because what we are waiting for is to do something significant as repaying the love given to us .The society is just like a ship, and in our dreams the captain is waving his hand and saying ”Hey! Come here and take the helm! ”How charming his voice is, but we have never heard of it in our true life. This morning, however, when we wake up, we will see the Olympic Games waving its hand. After chewing, most of us will have at least one plan about what to do for the Olympic Games. And mine is to be a “comforter” ----that is someone who will give comfort to others.

At the end of my speech, I hope all the preparation will go well, and everyone will show their ability to the world. Let us seize opportunities and give a big smile to challenges.

She sat down with a flop,and the chair legs gave way. Goldilocks saw the three bowls of stew. The big bowl was much too hot! “Maybe this bowl will be cooler,”she said. Goldilocks was right,but it was too cold. She grabbed the third bowl and gobbled it down. It was just right. Then with a yawn,she headed upstairs to the bedroom. Goldilocks tried the first bed,but it was too hard. The next was too soft. Goldilocks sighed and fell asleep as she was lying in the third bed.

　　a letter

　　dear sir:

　　i am your neighbour living just under your apartment in this building. recently it seems that you make a lot of noises late at night, probably working on something. i think i can understand why some people have to work hard even at night. we are all sometimes pressed by some urgent work that has to be finished within a limited period of time. however, i wonder if you can readjust your working schedule a bit to avoid making noises late at night.

　　the noise you make disturbs my study. as i am going to graduate from college this summer, i am busy preparing for my final exams. the noise you make at night has made it impossible for me to concentrate on my study. besides, many other neighbours complain of it. one neighbour complains that she is suffering from lack of sleep due to the noise and actually makes mistakes at work that didn’t happen in the past.

　　to be brief, if you could kindly change your schedule and make less noise, all your neighbours, including me of course, will feel very much obliged to you.

　　sincerely yours

On the Feeling of Immortality in youth

2010-01-13T21:15:55+08:00

　　No young man believes he shall ever die. It was a saying of my brother’s, and a fine one. There is a feeling of Eternity in youth, which makes us amend for everything. To be young is to be as one of the Immortal Gods. One half of time indeed is flown-the other half remains in store for us with all its countless treasures; for there is no line drawn, and we see no limit to our hopes and wishes. We make the coming age our own -- The vast, the unbounded prospect lies before us Death. old age. are words without a meaning. that pass by us like the idea air which we regard not. Others may have undergone, or may still be liable to them-we "bear a charmed life”, which laughs to scorn all such sickly fancies.

As in setting out on delightful journey, we strain our eager gaze forward- Bidding the lovely scenes at distance hail!-and see no end to the landscape, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life, we set no bounds to our inclinations. nor to the unrestricted opportunities of gratifying them. we have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition to flag; and it seems that we can go on so forever. We look round in a new world, full of life, and motion, and ceaseless progress; and feel in ourselves all the vigor and spirit to keep pace with it, and do not foresee from any present symptoms how we shall be left behind in the natural course of things, decline into old age, and drop into the grave.

It is the simplicity, and as it were abstractedness of our feelings in youth, that (so to speak) identifies us with nature, and (our experience being slight and our passions strong) deludes us into a belief of being immortal like it. Our short-lives connection with existence we fondly flatter ourselves, is an indissoluble and lasting union-a honeymoon that knows neither coldness, jar, nor separation. As infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us. we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the more objects press around us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
