adopt apparent dine expectation fall short of get..wrong in one's view preference extreme presence repay work out
It is easy to get things wrong if you move to live in a new country with different culture from your own. You may find yourself facing a whole new set of expectations about the proper way to behave. Go out to dine with your new friends and you may find yourself having to adopt a whole new set of table manners. Then there is the problem of who is responsible for paying for the meal. This may not be immediately apparent. In some cultures friends share the cost equally at the end of the meal, in others the preference is for friends to take turns,repaying one meal with another at a later date. Working out the details of local customs like these may take time, but, in my view , it is well worth the effort if you want to avoid misunderstandings.

He took the company to court and eventually I was able to reach a(n) s ettlement with Dupont for a large sum of money. As what it had done was clearly in violation of the law, Dupont also found itself in trouble with the Environmental Protection Agency.

sort out同义短语dramatic lay low acquire pass through recall step up
neighborhood hang around move out
Can you recall a time when the area where you live was very different from what it is today?Given the dramatic changes that China has passed through in recent years, that would not be surprising. Whole neighborhoods have been transformed. New construction has meant that the housing stock has improved in size and quality. As a result of redevelopment many people have been able to move out of old housing into new accommodation that offers better amenities, boosting their standard of living. This is naturally to be welcomed, but the change has not been without some costs. As whole areas of traditional low-rise housing have been laid low to make, way for high-rise apartments, opportunities for neighbors to casually hang around with each other have frequently declined.

most of the time leadership attribute come up with as opposed to
like hill care about have one’s eye(s) on
Those in charge of organizations naturally want to recruit the best candidates. But just what attributes are managers looking for in a potential employee? What do they set out to assess in an interview? One thing is the capacity to quickly come up with answers when confronted with problems, the ability to think up solutions on the fly. Another is the ability to combine self-confidence with a degree of h umility that will enable you to take advice gladly and learn from your mistakes. If you are applying for a post because you are unhappy with your current employer, beware of saying negative things about them. Focus on the positive things the future has to offer, as opposed to the
negative aspects of your present situation. In a(n) increasingly competitive market you need to convince the interviewer that you have the ability and enthusiasm to do the job well and the capacity to work like hell when the need arises.

I suspect that by now you know all about Marie Curie. You have,after all, been bombarded with facts about her. You will have read all about the brilliant work that led to her being awarded the most prestigious of scientific prizes, But why is it that So few women have been nominated for a Nobel Prize in science? It is an intriguing question and one that has led to intense debate, stirring up emotions, with strong views being expressed on whether nature or nurture plays the dominant role. The debate has generated numerous hypotheses, but arriving at a conclusion that satisfies everyone would prove difficult.

concise negative harsh dump tone evolve mood evolution disaster economic communicate kill of sharpen up filter into
Has the evolution of technology been a disaster for the way we communicate with one another? Some people certainly fear that the development of computers and smartphones has had a(n) negative effect
on language. But such an assessment is probably too harsh. For language inevitably evolves to take advantage of new methods of communication. Rather than limiting our ability to communicate by killing off language such changes often offer fresh ways for us to sharpen up our communication skills. Emoticons and emojis, for example, may not be appropriate where a more formal tone is required, but in informal contexts they offer a concise way of expressing our mood.

apparent household primary aspect kindness relieve ... of burden
leave behind repay devotion parenting responsibility help out
在中国，当上爷爷奶奶是件大事。中国的爷爷奶为照顾第三代尽心尽力是人所共知的。而这却是父母和成年子女之间矛盾的重要起因，因为两代人在生活方式、育儿理念等方面有显而易见的差异。你可以指望你的父母帮你做家务、替你带孩子，以此减轻你为人家长的负担，但要知道，你也常常不得不放弃自己的育儿理念。与此同时，做子女的不能理所当然地享受父母的好意，在你竭力平衡家庭与工作的时候父母伸出援手，那么在父母年纪大的时候你当然也要加以回报，照顾他们。
To be a grandparent is a big deal in China. Chinese grandparents are widely known for their devotion to the responsibilities of taking care of the third generation, This, however, is a primary cause of the conflict between parents and their adult children, for there exist apparent differences in a aspects like lifestyle and parenting approaches between the two generations. You can expect parents to help you manage your household and take on childcare duties, thus relieving you of your burden as a parent, but you must know, very often, you have to leave your own parenting ideas behind. Meanwhile, the adult child simply can't take the kindness of his/her parents for granted, As your parents helped you out when you struggled to balance family and career, you are certainly expected to repay their kindness by taking care of them when they get old.

我是名赛车设计师。这几年我对建造带人工智能的赛车很感兴趣。在我的想象中，我要发明的新车将通过接像机和传感器收集原始数据，并具有强大的数据处理能力。它能灵活地适应环境、决定何时加速或减速。你知道费车手在选择策略时往往依靠直觉，可直觉在人紧张(tense)的时候就不灵了。人工智能从来不会紧张，所以更安全。一且我攻克了设计中的难题，我将造一辆新赛车井带上它参加锦标赛。我希望它能战胜所有对手，夺得冠军称号。
I am a race car designer. In recent years I have been greatly interested in constructing a race car with artificial intelligence. In my imagination, the race car I'm going to invent will collect raw data through video cameras and sensors.It will have strong data processing abilities. It can adjust to the environment, deciding when ta accelerate or slow down in a flexible manner. You know, race car drivers always rely on intuition when selecting strategies, but intuition may fail if the person is tense. Artificial intelligence never feels tense, so it is safer. Once I've tackled the challenging problems in design, I will- build a new race car and take it to a tournament.I hope it will top all opponents and become a champion.

substance recommendation purchase document hunt(for) reference chemical 一天，有人给我一项任务，让我翻译一个文件。这是一份若干化学物质的研究报告，我对这些化学物质无所知。开始我认为我干不了这活。但我的教授鼓励我接下来。经他推荐，我买了两本字典。然后我就在互联网上搜寻参考资料。我熟悉了这个题材后才动手翻译。这样，最初看来不可能完成的任务最终却变得相当容易。One day, I was given the task of translating a document. It was a study of some chemical substances which I knew nothing about. At first I didn't think I could do it. But my professor encouraged me to take the job. Upon his recommendation, I purchased two dictionaries. Then, I hunted on the Internet for references. I didn't start the translation until after I became familiar with the subject. Thus, what seemed an impossible task at first became fairly easy in the end.

The reform and opening up since December 1978 has brought about a dramatic change in China. In 2008, China made history by successfully hosting the Olympic Games for the first time, which greatly boosted national' pride. Modernization has played an important role in changing everyday routines for many people. My neighborhood is an obvious example. I can still recall how I had to pass through several streets and alleys for daily necessities, whereas today groceries and convenience stores, all fully stocked, are scattered all over the city. In the past we mostly lived in old houses without bathrooms. Today lots of families have moved into modern apartment buildings. There are many more things to be said; here I have mentioned just a few.

雇主在招聘时会在求职者身上寻一一些特质。第一是领导能力。最高效的公司要招有发展前途的人，而不是缺少进取精神(the spirit of enterprise)的人。他们希望每个人都有进步的空间，并且最终能组建自己的常胜之队。第二是抱负。有抱负的员工多数时候接受挑战，并且能克服困难。为了更好的解决方案，他们拼命工作，从而使公司更具竞争力。第三是创造力。最成功的公司因为创新和对现状的持续改进而蓬勃发展。这些公司寻的人不仅能自主工作，还能想出新办法完成老任务。最后是激情，尽管所有雇员都在乎薪水，最受雇主欢迎的却是那些热爱工作如同热爱报酬的员工。
When recruiting, there are certain attributes that employers look for in job applicants. First is leadership. The most efficient organizations have their eyes on those who have development potential as opposed to those who lack the spirit of enterprise.
