【13】Fatherlessness is the most harmful demographic trend of this generation. It is the leading cause of the decline in the well-being of children. It is also the engine driving our most urgent social problems, from crime to adolescent pregnancy to domestic violence. Yet, despite its scale and social consequences, fatherlessness is frequently ignored or denied. Especially within our elite discourse, it remains a problem with no name.
关于这一代人的人口统计显示出的倾向中，父爱缺失是最糟的一项。它是儿童生活幸福度下降的罪魁祸首，也是产生犯罪、青少年怀孕、家庭暴力等严重社会问题目的根源。然而尽管父爱缺失这一问题普遍存在且后果严重，却经常被忽略被否认。尤其是在我们的精英话语中，父爱缺失仍是一个未被清楚地认识到的问题。
【14】Surely a crisis of this scale merits a name and a response. At a minimum, it requires a serious debate. Why is fatherhood declining? What can be done about it? Can our society find ways to invigorate effective fatherhood as a norm of male behavior? Yet, to date, our public discussion has been remarkably weak and defeatist. There is a prevailing belief that not much can or even should be done to reverse the trend.
对于如此规模的危机问题当然应该认识清楚并做出反应。至少要加以认真讨论：为什么为父之道会沦丧？针对这一问题有何对策？我们的社会能否找到办法，促使男性都能尽到为父之责？然而到目前为止，公众在这一问题上的声音还很微弱，没有成效。普遍的看法是我们无法甚至不应该去改变这一趋势。
【15】But the American future didn?t turn out as we expected. While Europeans cut the hours they spend at the office or factory-in France it is illegal to work more than35 hours a week-and lengthened their vacations, Americans were concluding that you could be happy only if you work hard and play hard. So they began to stay at their jobs longer than ever and then, in jam-packed weekends at places like the Hamptons on Long Island, invented the uniquely American concept of scheduled joy, filling a day off with one appointment after another, as if were no different from one at the office. American conservatives, meanwhile, came to believe that European?s desire to devote themselves to the pleasures of life and-the shame of it-six weeks annual vacation was evidence of a lack of seriousness and would, in any event, end in economic tears.
但美国的未来并没有成为我们所期待的那样。当欧洲人缩短在办公室或工厂工作的时间——在法国一周工作时间超过35个小时就是非法的——延长假期时，美国人却认为只有努力工作拼命玩耍才是幸福的。因此美国人工作的时间开始变得比以往任何时候都长，然后将日程安排得满满的，去诸如位于长岛的汉普敦等地度周末，美国人创造了独特的美国式的概念，按计划娱乐，休息日排满了一个又一个的日程，好像节假日与工作日没什么区别似的。同时美国的保守者们认为：真是遗憾啊，欧洲人渴望全身心地享受生活，一年6周的假期是欧洲人不负责任的表现，无论如何欧洲人最终会为经济的衰退而痛哭流涕。
【16】Why do Europeans and Americans differ so much in their attitude toward work and leisure? I can think of two reasons. First, the crowed confines of Western Europe and the expansive space of North America have led to varied consumer preferences. Broadly speaking，Americans value stuff-SUVs, 7,000-sq.-ft. house-more than they value time, while for Europeans it?s the opposite. Second, as Bell predicted, America?s sense of itself as a religious nation has revived.
为什么欧洲人和美国人对待工作和娱乐的态度有如此大的反差呢？我能想到两个原因。首先是西欧拥挤的环境和北美广阔的空间导致了不同的消费倾向。从广义上讲，美国人对实实在在的东西例如运动型多功能车，7000平方英尺房子的重视甚至他们对时间的重视。对欧洲人来说，情况恰恰相反。其次，正如贝尔所预言的那样，美国宗教意识思想复苏

1关于社区成员之间的沟通对改善的建议
Suggestions on Improving Communication among the Community Members
Communication plays a significant role in our daily life, especially in modern society. Since we get along with other people in every field, we must learn how to communicate with people effectively.
Effective communication should be planned carefully. First, speak slowly and briefly in order to make ourselves understood completely. Second, express ourselves in all sincerity and with warmth. Third, concentrate on what the speaker says and appreciate his point of view. Moreover, we should give positive feedback by nodding or smiling while listening. Fourth, place ourselves in the place of others.
We live in a world where people need depend on each other, so we must get along well with each other, especially in our community. I think we should improve communication among the community member.
First, we should help each other. Second, we should care for each other. Third, we should get together in our spare time. Finally, we should pay a visit to our neighbors. We should often chat with each other.
As far as I am concerned, I communicate with other people in a positive way whether I＇m in a merry mood or not. And I often express my own opinion genuinely and sincerely. In a word， we must do our best to deal with the relationship between people.
2家庭传统
My Family tradition
There is a saying that happy families are the same while unhappy ones have their own misfortune.
In fact，I don?t agree with it exactly. I hold the opinion that every happy family has its own character. And this is just like that different families have different traditions.
Maybe you are eager to know whether my family is a happy one or not. Unfortunately，I will not tell you anything about directly. What I am going to show you is just the tradition which I cherish most of my family. When I was young，my mother often attributes a lot of housework to me，such as washing dishes，cleaning rooms and so on. Once I was so mad that I said:” Hey，mum! Why do I have to do such chores. It is for girls but I am a boy!” “Oh，dear! You should be independent and both man and woman have the duty to do the work.” Mother said tenderly. “But why father didn?t do it with me? He is older than me .Every time when I was busy doing the cleaning，he was watching TV. That is unfair. “ I complained .” Because your father has done such things since he was a child. And now he gets married，he doesn?t have to do so. If you don?t know how to du such things by yourself，you can never find a wife. Then you have to do the chores for your whole life.” “That is absolutely right. I can ?t think out anything that is more shameful than without a wife.” Dad said seriously. From then on，I regarded independent as the most valuable quality of my life.
Of course，it is so easy for me to find such a talk is just a funny joke. But it is too late to discard the quality of being independent as it has been a habit of mine. And besides，I do have benefited a lot from the so-called independence. You never know what you will get，until you really do. I think that is what independence implies and so as what the tradition of my family holds.
3成功的因素
Factors Contributing to the Success of Bill Gates
As we all know, Bill Gates is the richest man in the world and rightly should have in their marketing consultants committee the best in the world. Bill Gates is the head of the software company Microsoft
and one of the world's wealthiest men. Gates and Paul Allen founded Microsoft in the 1970s, though Allen left the company in 1983. Gates oversaw the invention and marketing of the MS-DOS operating system, the Windows operating interface, the Internet Explorer browser, and a multitude of other popular computer products. Along the way he gained a reputation for fierce competitiveness and aggressive business savvy. During the 1990s rising Microsoft stock prices made Gates the world's wealthiest man; his wealth has at times exceeded $75 billion, making Gates a popular symbol of the ascendant computer geek of the late 20th century. It is widely believed that some people are born lucky and successful, because they possess high intelligence. But this is not true. High intelligence is not equal to success. Success lies in not only the intelligence factors but also the non-intelligence factors.
Non-intelligence factors are at least as important as intelligence factors, if not more than the latter. Success is built upon tremendous amount of study, practice and devotion. In addition, having a definite goal and knowing what to do next become more important. In fact, researchers have evidence that an intrinsic passion for one?s work is a key factor for success. According to my own experience, during our college years, having a good study habit is also important. Higher marks can?t be gained by putting in more hours. Efficiency in study can help us learn more.
Therefore, I think success is brought about both by innate intelligence factors and by non-intelligence factors.
4学术诚信
An Open Letter on Academic Integrity in China
In the illustration provided, authors of what should be unique articles peer over at their colleague?s work. Plagiarism in academic studies is becoming a major problem worldwide, perhaps students are looking for inspiration, but more likely, they are stealing ideas and using these ideas as their own. It appears from this pictures that everyone is guilty of this crime. There is no start or finish to the cycle of plagirism.
Academic plagiarism is a problem that is not limited to one or two schools in the word. One can only imagine that some form of academic is present everywhere. This process can occur innocently enough. One writer is looking for information on a certain topic and does not cite his work properly, the original author is forgotten, and credit is not placed where it is due.
I believe that this issue is a very serious problem in universities today. The administration should do everything they can to stop plagiarism. This could include lecturing students on how to properly quote references, and also raising the penalities for those who are found guilty of plagiarism.
4财富与幸福
The Relationship between Wealth and Happiness
Which is more important ,health or wealth? This problem have brought hot debate. Wealth has always been what some people long for. It is true that most of them try to acquire wealth by means of honest labour. Their efforts contribute to the welfare of the society and at the same time to the accumulation of their wealth, and hence to their happiness.
There is no doubt that wealth brings happiness, especially in the modern society. Various kinds of up-to-date household appliances, latest fashions and recreations make their appearance with each passing day. All this makes our life more comfortable and colorful. Therefore, without money we cannot turn admiration into reality.
But there are exceptions when wealth does not go hand in hand with happiness. Wealth may tempt weak-willed persons to be addicted to harmful habits, such as drug-taking and gambling, and result in their own ruin. Besides, a person may lose his even some government officials who take advantage of their positions to take bribes from the people turning to them for help. All these will bring about the negative effect of wealth if we don＇t take a proper attitude to it.
Different people have different views. Some people think that health is more important than wealth, money can't buy a healthy body. If people are not healthy, they can't work or study well. Health is the most important thing in the world, they think. But some people disagree with them ,they think wealth is the most important thing .without it ,people can't do anything. Although it can't buy health，but if people are ill, I t can buy the medicine .wealth can also help people lead a easy life . In my opinion, the first wealth is health .Once health is lost, it is no use having a lot of money. As far as I am concerned, I love wealth, but I value health more. Without health money becomes meaningless. no one agrees that a wealthy person without good health can be happy. So, just do our best and keep fit. On no account can we identify wealth with happiness. I also believe that one should never reckon only on wealth to achieve happiness .
6现代技术的利弊
Modern Technology : Convenience or Problem?
The rapid development of science and technology has brought about great changes to human life. Nowadays, more and more hi-tech tools, such as calculator, computer, etc, appear in our daily life. We use them wherever and whenever we are, so that our life becomes easier and more comfortable than before. However, does anyone think about what problems science and technology have caused to happen in this world? To some degree, it's more serious than that we consider. We human indeed use them to improve our living standard, but on the other hand, we are becoming lazier, more reliable than we used to be. All day long those hi-tech products accompany us, then we have either no space or time to think, as well, communication between each other decreases, and what takes place of it is the huge indifference and gap among human. the disadvantages about this development should not be neglected .Some of scientific inventions have even caused great harms or disasters to mankind. For example, advanced technology can be easily manipulated by irresponsible persons. Besides, we will be too dependant on it. When technology fails, we are helpless. Sometimes, it affects our health and life styles. The chemicals may be hazardous).What's worse, Science and technology may even destroy our simple and healthy life. In addition, the appearance of new technology may invade our privacy.
To sum up, humans must be alert against the possible harm while enjoying the benefits from them.
7失败是成功之母
Is failure a good teacher?
Everybody will have failure. Everyone know ，failure often accompany with us in our common life. No matter what we do，we all can not say we must be success. Because anything is not plain sailing.
The failure is a successful mother, if there is no failure, that will not have results to show an achievement. Really, the successful man is very happy, they own fresh flowers, applause. But the person, who fail, own of only have lonesome with unfrequented. In fact, we should go to more honorific is those person of[with] failures. Because, there is failure, just
have results to show an achievement.
Fail don?t mean you is a for failed, fail to just mean you haven?t succeeded; Fail don?t mean you a have no become, fail to mean you get experience; Fail don?t mean you are a stupid person who don?t know to improvise, failing to mean you have Attic faith; Fail don?t mean you have to has been suppressing not and quickly, failing to mean you take pleasure in trying…
In my opinion，I think failure is the footstone and catalyst of the edifice of success. If you never lost it，and always get it easily, and then you will not cherish what you get and own. It is true that failure is an important factor toward success. The way to success is full of various difficulties and obstacles. Many important inventions or discoveries were achieved after hundreds of failure. And only those successes which have been achieved after many failures are really valuable and praiseworthy.
This is the failure, precious failure.
8性别歧视
Gender Discrimination in Job-Hunting
Recent years , more girl students on the campus perform as excellently as boys, some even superior, however, when they venture into the complicated society, they find themselves faced with many things different. Among them is sexism at work.
It begins with the job interview. More vacancies are open only to males. Sometimes, females will be rejected just because of their sex. When females are lucky enough to be employed by a company, Women may do no less work but earn much less than men. Besides, women also hold less hope to be promoted. Unfortunately, they will barely have chances to display their talent. Eventually, only a few women succeed in winning high positions as well as high salaries. Common situation is that women are reduced to low positions and thus paid \
In a society where human rights are strongly emphasized, it's terrible to see sexism demonstrated Unfortunately he died from a sudden traffic accident, leaving the experiment half-done.
