Im crazy about basketball, andpretty good at it too, which is probably why I was so mad when we lost our last mat

2、ch. Weplayed well, but I felt the team were let down by one member, our point guard. The pointguard is a key player, but it was like he wasnt even on the court! Disappointed by hisbehaviour, I said all this to my best friend. I was just letting off steam really, because I wasso angry, but then my fr

3、iend went and told everyone else what Id said.我今年 17 岁，是学校篮球队的一员。我酷爱打篮球，而且打得也挺好的，也许正因如此，在我们队输掉了最近的比赛时我相当恼怒。我们打得不错，但我感觉整个团队都被一个队友拖累了，那就是我们的控球后卫。控球后卫是队里的关键球员，但他就像根本不在场上一样！我对他的行为感到失望，我把这些全部告诉了我最好的朋友。我其实只是发泄一下怒气， 因为我很生气， 可我的朋友随后却把我的话告诉了所有人。This is so totally awkward. Im really angry with my friendwhat s

4、hould I say to him?And should I say anything at all to my teammate?这太让人尴尬了。 我真的很生我朋友的气我应该对他说些什么呢？另外， 我是否应该对我的队友说点什么？Embarrassed and ashamed, I cant concentrate on anything. Please help!我既尴尬又羞愧，做什么事都无法集中精力。请您帮帮我吧！Ben本Absolute agony!深陷痛苦！OurAgonyAunt answers your questions.知心阿姨为你答疑解惑Dear Ben,亲爱的本，Ther

5、e is an old American saying, “Loose lips sink ships.” This means that if you speaktoo much about something, especially to people who you dont know so well, itll causeall kinds of trouble.美国有一句老话：“口风不紧船舰沉(祸从口出)。” 意思是说如果你过多地谈论某件事，尤其是跟你不太了解的人谈，会招来各种麻烦。The situation here is so much worse because the “lo

6、ose lips” were your best friends.Treated this way, youre sure to feel hurtwe should always be able to trust those closestto us, and it hurts even more when we find we cant.现在的情况更糟糕，因为“口风不紧”的人是你最好的朋友。被这样对待，你一定会觉得受到了伤害我们应该总是能够信任最亲近的人，当我们发现他们不能信赖时，就更伤心了。But I have to say that it s partly your fault, is

7、n t it? You admit that you were “letting offsteam”. It is understandable in that situation, but we should always think before we speak.不过我不得不说你也有一部分责任，不是吗？你承认了你在“宣泄情绪”。在当时的情况下，这是可以理解的，但我们在说话前应该先想清楚。Heres what you need to do. First, apologise to your teammate. If you ever want to winany more basketba

8、ll games (and Im sure you do!), you need to work together, and thatmeans communicating with each other clearly and resolving conflicts. So have a chat withyour teammate. Tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking.现在你应该这么做。首先，向你的队友道歉。如果你们想赢得更多的篮球比赛（我肯定你们一定想赢! ），你们就必须团结合作，这就

9、意味着你们彼此间必须沟通清楚，解决矛盾。 所以， 找你那位队友聊聊吧。 坦诚地告诉他你当时的话没有经过认真考虑。Then, talk to your friend. Friendship should be one of the greatest things in the world, butsometimes it can be difficult. Again, your strategy is clear communication. Tell your friendyoure angry with him for repeating what you said and making

10、the situation worse, butthat you want to move on.Approached in this way, your friendship will soon be repaired.然后，和你的朋友聊聊吧。友谊应该是世界上最好的事物之一了，但有时也会有些麻烦。同样，你的策略是进行清楚明确的沟通。告诉你的朋友，他传话的行为让情况更糟糕了，你对此很生气，但你想让事情就此过去。通过这种方式处理，你们的友谊很快就会修复。Thirdly, and perhaps most importantly, think about your own behaviour. D

11、ont say toomuch when you re angry! Filled with anger, you tend to say whatever comes to your mind.This gives people the wrong signal. Take a deep breath, calm down, and always remember:think first, speak later. If you feel one of your teammates isnt pulling their weight, thenraise your concerns in a

12、 professional way with your team coach.第三，也许是最重要的一点，反思自己的行为。生气的时候别说太多话！满腔怒火的时候，你往往想到什么就说什么。这会给别人错误的信号。深呼吸，冷静下来，并始2终牢记：三思而后行。如果你觉得你的队友没有尽责，那你要以更专业的方式向教练提出你的担心。If you think about other peoples feelings as well as your own, youll soon find everythingworks out.如果你能在考虑自己感受的同时也考虑别人的感受，很快你就会发现一切都好了。Good lu

13、ck!祝你好运！AgonyAunt知心阿姨B3U1 P2 Little White Lies善意的小小谎言善意的小小谎言Written more than two hundred years ago, these lines by Walter Scott remain one of themost well-known excerpts of Scottish poetry:两百多年前，沃尔特司各特写下的这几行文字，如今依然是苏格兰诗歌中最广为传诵的诗句之一：Oh, what a tangled web we weave,When first we practise to deceive!啊

14、，谎言一旦开始，我们须得织就一张错综复杂的网！We all know that honesty is an important value and that lying is wrong, but who canhonestly say that they ve never told a lie? Perhaps we comfort ourselves with theknowledge that most of the lies we tell are “white lies”: little lies that we tell to protectothers from the trut

15、h.我们都知道诚实是一项重要品质， 也知道说谎是不对的， 但是谁又能诚实地说自己从未说过谎呢？也许我们会这样来安慰自己： 我们所说的大部分谎言都是 “善意的谎言”我们为了保护他人免受真相伤害的小谎言。We ve all surely had the experience of someone cooking a meal for us that we dont like.The majority of us of course don t tell the truth we lie and say that the food is“delicious”.我们一定都有过这样的经历： 别人为我们准

16、备的饭菜不合我们的口味。 我们大多数人当然不会说实话我们会撒谎说食物“很美味”。Or if a friend asks us what we think of their new haircut, we say “It s great!” , even if wethink its awful. But to what extent can we justify telling white lies like these?或者有朋友问我们他的新发型怎么样，即使我们觉得很糟糕，我们也还是会说： “太棒了！” 但是这些善意的谎言到底有多正当呢？One of the main reasons for

17、 telling a white lie is to try to make others feel better. However,when we lie and say that someones haircut looks good, or when we say that we love ameal that we secretly hate, are we really hoping to improve the situation for someone else?Perhaps we are in fact lying to protect ourselves from the

18、disappointment and anger ofothers.说善意谎言的一个主要原因是为了照顾别人的感受。 然而， 当我们撒谎说某人的发型很好看， 或者说不合我们口味的菜很好吃时， 我们真的是在为别人着想吗？也许实际上，我们撒谎只是为了不让别人失望和生气，以免殃及自身。Another reason for telling a white lie is to give encouragement. Say for example that yourfriend asks you what you think of his singing. You of course say that i

19、ts wonderful,despite secretly thinking that your cat can sing better. Stop for a moment and consider thatperhaps your friend wants some frank comments from you so that they can improve. Orperhaps, they need to know that they should look for a different hobby.说善意谎言的另一个原因是给予鼓励。 比方说， 你的朋友问你觉得他的歌唱得怎么样。尽

20、管你私下里认为他唱得还不如猫叫好听，但你还说会说这很好听。停下来想一想，也许你的朋友就是想从你那儿得到一些坦诚的意见，从而改进和提高。又或者，应该让他知道自己应该换一个爱好了。Finally, we may also tell a white lie when we want to protect others from bad news. Ifyouve had a bad day, do you tell your parents about it, or do you hide your tears and liethat your day was “fine” ? If the lat

21、ter, don t you think your parents would want to listento you and understand your feelings? Wouldn t it be better to respect their concern for youand ask for their advice?最后，想要向别人隐瞒坏消息的时，我们也可能会说善意的谎言。假如你今天诸事不顺，你是对你的父母说实话呢，还是会偷偷擦掉眼泪骗他们说你今天过得“很好”？如果是后者， 难道你不觉得其实父母希望听你倾诉从而理解你的真实感受吗？尊重他们对你的关心，向他们寻求建议不是更好

22、吗？Going back to Walter Scotts lines, we may find even white lies have results we cannotknow in advance. Perhaps the meal you said was “delicious” will be served every timeyou visit. Would your friend trust your opinion again if he found out you had lied about his“wonderful”singing? How would you exp

23、ect others to truly understand your emotions ifyou only shared good news instead of bad? Moreover, how would you feel if youdiscovered that the people closest to you had been hiding the truth from you?回到沃尔特司各特的诗句，我们可能会发现，即使是善意的谎言，也会带来无法预知的后果。也许被你评价为“美味的”饭菜会在你每次到访时都出现在餐桌上。如果你的朋友发现你对歌声“很美妙”的评价是个谎言后，他还

24、会继续信任你的看法吗？如果你只分享好消息而隐瞒坏消息，你又怎么能指望别人真正理解你的情绪呢？而且，如果你发现身边最亲近的人对你隐瞒了真相，你又会作何感想？3B3U2 P1The Well that Changed the World改变世界的井改变世界的井As a six-year-old Canadian schoolboy, Ryan had trouble believing the words spoken by histeacher that many people in developing African countries couldn t get enough clean w

25、ater.He looked across the classroom at the drinking fountain. It was very closeonly ten stepsaway. So, Ryan asked himself, “ Why do some African children have to walk tenkilometres to get water every day? And why is the water so dirty that it makes them sick?”Young Ryan thought, “Life is easy for me

26、, but hard for those people. Why don t I help?”年仅六岁的加拿大小学生瑞安难以相信老师所说的话： 在欠发达的非洲国家， 许多人都喝不到足够的干净的水。他的目光掠过教室，望向对面的喷泉式饮水器，它是那么近只有十步之遥。因此，瑞安问自己： “为什么有些非洲儿童每天要步行十公里去取水？为什么他们会因为喝了不卫生的水而生病？”年幼的瑞安想道： “我的生活很舒适，但他们的生活却那么艰难，我为什么不去帮帮他们呢？”At first, his plan was to earn money to build a single well somewhere in A

27、frica. He cleanedwindows and did gardening for his family and neighbours. He soon reached his first targetof $70, but when he gave the money to a charity, he was told that it actually cost $2,000 tobuild a well. Seventy dollars was only enough for a hand pump. Ryan understood that ahand pump wouldnt

28、 help the children. What they needed was a well dug near theirhomes.起初，他的计划是赚钱在非洲挖一口井。通过帮助家人和邻居们擦窗户、做园艺，他很快就达到了他的第一个目标70 美元，但当他把这笔钱捐给慈善机构时，他才得知挖一口井实际上需要花费 2,000 美元。 70 美元只够买一个手压泵。 瑞安明白一个手压泵帮不了非洲的孩子们。他们需要的是一口离家不远的井。Two thousand dollars was a lot of money, but Ryan didnt give up. He was determined toh

29、elp other children have clean water. He started to ask for help from his classmates andneighbours and persuaded them to donate money. At the same time, a friend of Ryansmother helped make his story go public. After several months, Ryan had raised the $2,000,with which a well was built near a primary

30、 school in Uganda. The children at the school nolonger needed to walk for hours to get water. They were grateful to him and invited him tovisit.2,000 美元可是一笔大数目，但是瑞安并没有放弃。他下定决心要帮助其他孩子获得干净的水。他开始向同学和邻居求助，说服他们捐款。与此同时，在瑞安妈妈的一位朋友的帮助下，瑞安的事为公众所知了。几个月后，瑞安筹集了 2,000 美元，在乌干达一所小学附近建造了一口井。这所学校的孩子们再也不用走几小时的路去打水了。他

31、们非常感激瑞安，并邀请瑞安前来参观。In Uganda, Ryan at last saw the finished well with his own eyes. But that was not all. Healso saw hundreds of delighted students who had turned out to welcome him. They sangand danced happily. Some even offered him food and gifts. At first Ryan was nervous, butsoon a great warmth f

32、illed him. He really had made a difference for these children. Hebroke into a joyful smile.在乌干达，瑞安终于亲眼看到了打好的井。不仅如此，他还看到了几百名学生兴高采烈地欢迎他。他们高兴地唱歌跳舞。有的学生还为他送上了食物和礼物。一开始瑞安还有点紧张，但很快他就感到一阵温暖。他真的改变了这些孩子的生活。他突然笑了起来。Later, Ryans experience led him to set up a foundation to encourage more people to help.Many in

33、spired people gave him their support. Ryans foundation continues to attractsupport from more and more people, so the work of building more wells can go on. Today,over 800,000 people in 16 countries across Africa have benefited from the life-changinggift of clean, safe water.后来，这段经历促使瑞安建立了一个基金会，以鼓励更多

34、的人提供帮助。许多深受鼓舞的人都给与瑞安支持。 瑞安的基金会不断吸引着越来越多的人给予帮助， 从而使打井事业能够继续。 如今， 这份能改变人一生的礼物干净卫生的水已经惠及了非洲 16 个国家的 80 多万人。Now, as an adult, Ryan says that the question to ask is not “Why dont I help?”, but“ How can I help today? ” . This insight grew from the determined attitude of asix-year-old boy who had the coura

35、ge and perseverance to make his dream a reality.如今，瑞安已长大成人，他不再问“我为什么不去帮助他们？”，而是“如今我该如何去帮助他们？”。这份领悟，始于一个有勇气和毅力实现梦想的六岁男孩那颗坚定不移的心。B3U2 P2The Power of Good善行的力量善行的力量“The British Schindler”: the life of Nicholas Winton“英国辛德勒”：尼古拉斯温顿的生平It is August 1939, and a group of frightened children are boarding a t

These are amongthe 669 children, most of them Jewish, that Nicholas Winton will go on to save from deathat the hands of th

37、e Nazis.1939 年 8 月，一群心惊胆战的孩子们在布拉格的威尔逊车站登上列车。而他们伤心欲绝的父母却没有上车。事实上，他们害怕再也见不到自己的孩子了。但他们知道，孩子们会活下来。这些孩子大都是犹太人，他们是尼古拉斯温顿即将从纳粹手里解救的 669 名儿童中的一部分。4Nicholas Winton was born on 19 May 1909 in London, to German-Jewish parents. Thefamily later took British nationality. On leaving school, Winton worked in banks

38、inGermany and France.

39、 In Prague, Winton saw people living in terrible conditions andwhose lives were in danger. He decided to help transport children to safety in Britain. Heestablished an office to keep records of the children, and then returned to Britain to findtemporary homes for them. He used donated funds and his

41、已经解救了 669 个孩子。During World War II, Winton served as an officer in Britains Royal Air Force. He left themilitary in 1954. He then worked for international charities and for various companies. Forthe most part, he did not mention the children he saved, and his actions soon disappearedfrom peoples memo

42、ries.二战期间，温顿曾在英国皇家空军担任军官。他于 1954 年离开部队。之后他在一些国际慈善机构和多家公司工作过。 他极少提及自己救孩子的事情， 于是这些事渐渐淡出了人们的记忆。That all changed in 1988 when his wife Grete found a forgotten journal at home. Thejournal contained photographs and names of the children and addresses of the families thattook them in. She sent the journal

43、to a newspaper, and that year Winton was seen on theBritish television programme Thats Life. At one point, the host asked people in theaudience to stand up if Nicholas Winton had saved their lives. A shocked Winton watchedas the majority of people rose to their feet.
