關於大學英語文章閱讀

　　對於大部分的中國學生來說,由於語言環境的缺乏,閱讀是他們接觸英語的主要途徑。下面是小編帶來的，歡迎閱讀!

　　篇一

　　Embark on a New Beginning

　　It is the road you take that decides your destiny but not your destiny that decides the road you take.

　　The question is: Are you satisfied with who you are? Are you doing what you are capable of doing? Do you get excited about what you are going to do when you get up in the morning? It is high time you asked these questions that reflect the truth about your life. More often than not we have the ability to achieve much greater things, but we get caught in the average things in life and waste our potential. Each one of us has immense ability. But most of us fail to use it. Why?

　　1. There is no exact purpose for your life.

　　2. You underestimate yourself.

　　3. You are too busy to think about any-thing.

　　4. You are in a comfortable zone.

　　5. You fear failure.

　　Ask yourself, what difference am I making in the lives of others? Would you be happy and satisfied with what you have achieved? Are you following your passion? You must find what you love and what gives you fulfillment.

　　Don’t be afraid to make a new beginning. Go deep and explore the possibilities. As you go deeper and deeper, you begin to add meaning to your life.

　　翻譯：踏上新的征程

　　你所走的路決定你的命運,而不是你的命運決定你應該走什麼樣的路。

　　問題來了,你滿足於你的現狀嗎?你正在做自己力所能及的事嗎?每天起床後,你會對自己要去做的事感到興奮嗎?英語短文是時候問問這些能反映自己真實情況的問題了。我們總是有機會獲得更大的成功的,但是卻又常常被日常瑣事所累,從而白白浪費了自己的潛力。每個人的能力都很強,但是我們卻常常無法正確利用它。為什麼呢?

　　1. 生活沒有明確的目標

　　2. 低估自己

　　3. 忙到沒時間思考

　　4. 安於現狀。

　　5. 害怕失敗。

　　自問一下,我給別人的生活帶來了什麼改變嗎?你對自己的成就感到快樂和滿意嗎?你正充滿激情嗎?你必須找到你所愛的和能給你帶來滿足感的事物。

　　不要害怕重新起跑。更深入地去發現可能性。當你對生活理解加深的時候,你就給生活增添了意義。

　　篇二

　　大學生花費過多

　　Excess Spending on Campus

　　A recent survey indicates that the monthly expenditure of a college student has been on the sharp rise. Many college students have no concept of thrift in their mind at all.

　　The following factors contribute to this excess spending. First of all, as the only child of their families, many students are the apples in their families' eyes and naturally get more care and pocket money. Some are even spoiled and take spending money from their parents for granted. In addition, with the improvement of living standards, parents can also afford higher expenditure of their children. Moreover, some students like to pursue fashion and trends, which can be quite costly. Finally, campus love is another possible factor causing too much spending.

　　From my point of view, college students should learn to be thrifty. We should limit our expenditure on daily necessities but not buy whatever we want regardless of their prices. The habit of thrift can help us form fight values and is favorable to our future development.

　　篇三

　　給大學新生的13個建議：別虛度光陰

　　College is the time to try new things, meet new people, and have new experiences. The things is, it can all fall apart if you don’t have a clear idea of what you are getting into. Be sure to make the best of it with these tips for new college students.

　　大學是嘗試新事物、結交新朋友、經歷新體驗的時機。問題是如果你不清楚自己要做什麼，這些機遇就會白白浪費掉。大學新生一定要好好用用下面的這幾個方法。

　　1. Go to class

　　去上課

　　Oh, it will be so tempting to sleep in. After all, you’re a college student! You can do what you want, right? Well, you sure can if you want to scramble to make up for it later on. It is much easier to hold a GPA than to attempt to bring it up!

　　睡覺很誘人呀。畢竟你是大學生了!你可以想做什麼就做什麼，對吧?好吧，如果你想以後倉促補上那當然可以。保持住學分績點比嘗試提高它要容易得多!

　　2. Know what you can handle course-wise

　　知道如何能明智地處理課程

　　It is much better to finish a semester ‘late’ ***who doesn’t these days?*** than to have a nervous breakdown because of over-scheduling yourself. In the bigger picture, a few months or even a year does not make that much of a difference, unless you want to brag about how you finished school on time.

　　推遲完成***現在誰不這樣?***比過度安排導致自己精神緊張要好得多。從大局的角度看，幾個月甚至一年的時間也不會有多大的不同，除非你想吹噓自己如何按時完成學業。

　　3. Get involved

　　參與進去

　　You might be attending school in a different state, or even in your own state. Either way you can afford to expand your interests and meet new people. College is an easy way to make contacts and new friends!

　　你可能要去到另外一個州讀大學，也可能還是在自己家鄉所在的州。無論是在哪裡，你都能夠擴大你的興趣並結交新的朋友。大學是接觸和結交新朋友的簡單方式!

　　4. Make friends in your program who are ahead of you

　　結交班級裡成績比你好的朋友

　　This way you might be able to borrow their old tests, notes and/or lab reports. This is not cheating, but using your resources and contacts wisely. Many sororities and fraternities have these resources available, some even in database form! You can trade off with this friend or do something nice like bake him/her cookies for their help.

　　這樣你就可能向借他們以前的測驗、筆記和/或實驗報告了。這不是作弊，而是明智地使用你的資源和人脈。很多姐妹會和兄弟會都有這些資源，有一些甚至存在了資料庫裡!你可以和你的朋友交換下，或做一些像給他/她烤餅乾這樣的事情來感謝他們的幫助。

　　5. On that note, consider joining a sorority or fraternity

　　說到這裡，可以考慮加入姐妹會或兄弟會

　　Yes, you have to go to social events. Yes, you might get categorized as a snob or fill-in-the-inappropriate-name-blank, but you really can benefit from the social network and resources ***such as old tests***.

　　是的，你必須要去社交。是的，可能有同學覺得你很勢利，覺得你很煩哪兒哪兒都有你，但你真的可以從這些社交網路和資源中受益***如以前的測驗***。

　　6. Buy your books online or from a friend

　　從網上或朋友那裡買書

　　Holy cow, the universities make a boatload off of textbooks! Using one book for a semester ***even with selling it back*** can cost $100 plus! Many companies like Amazon sell textbooks cheaper than at universities and offer gift cards at a decent rate to sell them back.

　　我的天，大學的教科書可以裝滿一船!一學期用一本書***甚至把它賣掉後***就得花100多美元!許多像亞馬遜這樣的公司賣的教科書價格比大學裡要便宜，而且還提供禮品卡，用完後賣出去的價格也合理。

　　7. Keep in contact with your family

　　和家人保持聯絡

　　Yes, you should make contacts and friends at college. This does not mean you should ignore your family who likely supports you, or encouraged you to get to where you are today. Give them a call, Skype them, send them a card, or do something during the semester to let them know you are thinking about them.

　　是的，在大學裡你應該和他人接觸、交朋友。這並不是說你該忽視你的家人，你的家人會支援你或鼓勵過你才讓你有了今天。這個學期給他們打打電話，用Skype和他們通訊，送給他們賀卡，或做些什麼事情來讓他們知道你在想著他們。

　　8. Keep in contact with old friends

　　和老朋友保持聯絡

　　One of my biggest regrets in life was intentionally falling out of touch with high school friends. I had joined a group of people who convinced me that the only important thing was their group and if friends or family did not understand, they should be cut off. I missed out on so much, and now the stream of Facebook updates from my high school friends makes me sad.

　　我人生中的一大遺憾是和高中朋友鬧翻了。我加入了一個團體，那裡的人讓我相信最重要的事情就是這個團體，如果朋友和家人不理解的話，應該和他們斷絕關係。我錯過了這麼多，現在我高中朋友Facebook上的更新讓我很難過。

　　Sometimes something similar happens if you meet the man or woman ‘of your life’ who you can’t stand being away from. Break away and connect with the friends who have been there for you forever.

　　有時如果你遇到了“生命中的那個人” ，而你又離不開他/她時，也會有相似的事情發生。和他/她分手，並和一直在那裡支援你的朋友聯絡。

　　9. Learn from mistakes

　　從錯誤中學習

　　If you do something stupid, learn from your mistakes. College is a time not only for learning about Chemistry and the correct way to cite a source, but for learning about life. Learning how to come back from mistakes is a big part of the college experience.

　　如果你做了一些蠢事，從錯誤中學習。大學不僅僅是用來學習學科知識和如何去引經據典的，它還是學習生活的地方。學習如何從錯誤中走出來是大學經驗的一大重要部分。

　　10. Be silly

　　做些傻事

　　You have a little bit of margin during this time to get away with crazy things and not look too foolish ***hey, it’s college!*** Use this time to go on adventures and do silly things that likely will be looked down upon later in life. This is also a great way to bond with your new friends.

　　在這段時間內，你要留有餘地，不要做太瘋狂的事情，也不要看上去太愚蠢。***嘿，這是大學!***用這段時間來冒險和做一些傻乎乎的事情，這樣以後在生活中還可以回想回想。這也是和你新朋友交流的一個好方式。

　　11. Be careful

　　要小心

　　Yes, have new experiences. Yes, be silly. Do not do things that you know might endanger your life, health or self-image.

　　對，要有新的體驗。對，要做些傻事。但是不要做可能危及到生命、健康或自我形象的事情。

　　12. Learn how to balance and prioritize

　　學會平衡和為事情設定優先順序

　　Time management skills are completely necessary to explore all that college life has to offer. There will always be activities, social events, school events, trips, homework, and tests for which to study. Part of life is managing the time that we have, so my advice would be to learn this early on in your college career.

　　去探索大學生活時，時間管理技巧是非常有必要的。總是有各種各樣的活動、社交活動、學校活動、旅行、作業和測驗。生活中的一部分就是管理我們所擁有的時間，我的建議是在開始大學生涯時儘早學習它。

　　13. Learn about yourself

　　瞭解自己

　　Figure out what you want out of life. You don’t need to know right away, but be thinking about this as you experience new things, meet new people, and explore the world of knowledge.

　　弄清你想要過的生活。你不必現在就知道，但是當你經歷新的事情、結識新的朋友、探索世界知識時就要想一想了。
