英译汉短文翻译
1. Job security is extremely hard to come by these days, no matter what profession you choose. It isn't enough to pursue a field with perceived stability, say the experts. You'll want to find something you feel passionate about, can make a living doing and that involves using skills you can easily apply to other fields.
在当前的经济形势下，无论你从事何种职业，就业稳定都很难找到稳定的就业机会。专家们表示，光是追求预计能够带来稳定就业的领域是不够的。你希望追求的方向应该是你所热爱的、能够借以维持生计的职业，并且能够运用到一些你可以轻松转换到其它领域的技能。
2. Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could go hayward and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who shower us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
爱在生活之外扮演了一个关键的角色。爱使你想要得到些什么。没有爱，一个人将走向不归路，变得凶暴、残忍。在我们最初的人生道路上，我们的父母给予了我们无条件的关爱，他们教会我们判断正确与错误、好与坏。然而我们常常把这想当然了，只有等到我们结了婚并且有了孩子之后，一个人才会懂得并注意别人的感受。孩子让我们变得富有责任心、变得成熟稳重，并且更好的理解人生
3. When companies have different employees on the same job and one of them is paid differently, many unfairness issues surface. \"It can happen in any 'open shop' that differentiates pay for any reason (seniority, performance, etc.),\" says Dauphinais. You could run the risk of alienating valued colleagues if they learn you earn more for what they perceive to be the same job.
公司雇佣不同的人员从事同一岗位的工作时，如果其中有个人的薪资不同时，很多不公平的问题就会浮出水面。Dauphinais 说：“这种情况在任何开放行业都有可能发生，因为不同的原因（资历，表现等）员工的薪酬不同”。如果你让同事知道你们在做相同的工作，而你的工资比他们高，那么你就可能会被你很重视的同事疏远。
4. Spouses are a bigger source of stress than bosses, research shows. There may be no place like home, but if you want to relax then you might be better off at work, according to the survey.

研究表明，另一半所带来的压力要大过老板。根据调查显示，尽管家是这世上独一无二的地方，但如果想放松的话你最好还是去工作吧。
The poll of 3,000 men and women also found that husbands are more likely to send their wives' blood pressure soaring than the other way round. Overall, 58 percent of those surveyed said their spouse or partner was among those who put them under pressure.
同时，这项由3000名男女参与的投票也表明，与其他因素相比，丈夫们反而更容易让他们的妻子血压飙升。总体来讲，58%的受访者表示自己的另一半是压力的来源 之一。
Just 43 percent said the same of their manager. And 18 per cent of women said their partner added a lot of stress to their life – compared with just 12 per cent of men.
只有43%的人表示压力来自上级主管。18%的女性提到伴侣给自己的生活施加了巨大压力，而这一比例在男性中仅为12%。
Cary Cooper, professor of health psychology at Lancaster University, said it appeared that people were taking their work troubles home with them.
兰开斯特大学心理学教授卡里•库珀说，看起来人们常常加工作中的烦恼带回家
Fears about job losses during the recession are likely to be making matters worse. He said: 'One coping strategy people have when they are feeling insecure is to take it out on their spouses.'
经济衰退的大环境下，惧怕失业的情绪使得事情变得更糟。他说：“一旦人们失去安全感，对策之一就是想伴侣诉苦。”
'One of the causes of stress is the long hours culture. If you consistently put in long hours, it will damage your health and also your relationship at home.'
“另外企业中的加班现象也是压力的成因之一。如果你长期加班，不仅有害健康更是会影响你的家庭关系。”
The professor added that juggling family duties and a career can mean that women are under more stress than men. However, they cope with it better, mainly because they find it easier to talk to others about their feelings.
库珀教授补充道，由于兼顾家庭和工作，这就意味着女性承担的压力要远比男性多。不过，她们更善于化解压力，主要原因是他们更愿意与他人交流自己的感受
5. Before you look for an overseas job, you should determine whether you would even want to work in another culture, and if so, how \"foreign\" are you willing to go? Do you enjoy change? Do you mind learning new and sometimes odd protocolfor everything from conducting a meeting to buying tomatoes?
2
在你开始找一份海外工作之前，你应该先要确定，你是否真的愿意在另外一种文化下工作，如果真的愿意的话，你愿意被海外文化同化多少？你是否喜欢改变？你是否愿意学习一切新新事物，是否能够接受一切古怪的事情，比如说从主导一次会议到买西红柿等所有事情？
If you are sure overseas work is for you, Hachey and other career experts recommendseveral steps. 如果你确定海外工作很适合你的话，Hachey和其他职业专家为你推荐了以下方法：
The vast majority of professionals working overseas landed their job stateside, and it's much easier to land a job overseas before hopping on the plane. If you want to work abroad, look for international employers in your line of work. While some companies with a worldwide presence offer no mobility between countries, others encourage their employees to go all over the world. If you're the right fit, the company will handle your Visa and work permit, and will do their best to convincethe local authorities that only you -- over anyone in their country -- could do the job in question.
绝大多数在海外工作的人士都是在美国找到了工作，并且在你手忙脚乱之前很容易就找到一份工作了。如果你想去国外工作的话，那就寻找你所在行业的国际雇主。虽然有些跨国公司不会为你提供出国的机会，但是有的却会鼓励员工满世界跑。如果你是合适的人选，公司会帮你办理好个人签证和工作签证，并且会尽他们最大的努力说服当地的权威机构，在他们全国上下只有你能够按要求做好这份工作。

由于历史、政治和经济上的原因，全世界讲英语、用英语的人为数最多。但是英语之所以能在全球流行，除了上述原因之外，也和英语自身的一些特性和特点不无相关。其中最重要的一点就是英语特别容易接受和适应—英语中的词汇吸收了全世界几乎所有主要语言的材料。（113字） 难点注释：

多年来，家长和老师都曾得到过这样一种信息：尽量利用任何机会表扬孩子，对他们所干的任何事情都要说好—据说这样做有助于提高孩子的自尊。但是近年来许多教育家和儿童心理学家正在得出一种完全相反的结论，他们认为对孩子往往少一些赞扬为好。（113字） 难点注释：
1）得到信息get the message 2）尽量利用任何at almost any opportunity 3）自尊self-esteem 4）儿童心理学家child psychologist

当今世界的竞争是人才的竞争。因此，党中央决定从海外我们的留学生中，从香港、澳门、台湾吸收和利用人才来加强我们在世界上的竞争能力。引进这些人才的重点是那些开放程度越来越大、竞争越来越激烈的部门，比如说银行、保险等行业，以及国有大型企业的管理层。（120字）

The departments that would introduce talented people from outside are those that are exposed to increasingly fierce competition and that are open wider to the outsider world，such as banking，insurance industry，large state-owned enterprises，etc.

Among its 1．8 million residents，half were not born locally and there is on an average one Asian out of four residents. 11
人体是由各种类型的细胞构成的，这些细胞多达50万亿，它们之间相互联系，相互依赖。如果丧失其中的某些细胞，比如说失去构成整条腿的细胞，将会严重影响其余所有肌体组织；而像心脏或肾脏之类的器官，哪怕相对较少的细胞受到严重损害，也可能会最终导致所有50万亿细胞的死亡。（128字）

据研究人员统计，接下来的几十年，欧洲人口将持续减少。目前欧盟国家的妇女平均生1.5个孩子，而为了保持人口替代率，每个妇女至少要生两个孩子。即便从现在开始妇女增加生育数量，人口减少的趋势仍将持续几十年，因为他们的下一代中愿意成为父母的人比这一代的要少。（122字）
难点注释： 1）持续减少continue to decline 2）替代率replacement rate 3）人口减少的趋势the tendency to population decline
According to researchers' estimate，Europe's population will continue to decline for decades. At present 1 ．5 babies are born for every European Union woman，when two births are required for the population“replacement rate”to be maintained. Even if women started to have more children again，the tendency to population decline would continue for decades，as there will be fewer parents in the next generation than in this one. 13

Many neighboring countries are accelerating their development. All this serves as a severe challenge as well as a historic opportunity for us to strive to catch up and achieve development by leaps and bounds. 15

Apart from providing people with timber，forests help regulate climate，conserve water and soil，wall off wind，fix sands，improve water quality，keep away smoke and dust，sterilize（purify）the air，reduce noise，beautify surroundings，maintain and improve ecological balance. Man would not be able to exist without green plants producing oxygen and absorbing harmful gases all the time. Man's health is closely related to thequality of the air，which in turn is decided by the size（extent）of forests. 17
许多树木都能吸收空气中的有害物质和致癌物质。林区空气中的细菌数量只有无林区的百分之一，而百货商店内每立方米空气中则含有四百多万个细菌。绿化区可以使噪音减弱四分之一左右。森林上空和附近的空气的含水量比无林地区多百分之十至二十。（112字） 难点注释：
1）致癌物质cancer-causing substances 2）每立方米per cubic meter 3）含水量moisture content
Many kinds of trees can absorb poisonous and cancer-causing substances in the air. The amount of bacteria in a forest area makes up but 1％of that in a deforested area，while the air in a department store contains more than 4 million bacteria per cubic meter. A tree-covered area may reduce noise by a quarter. Moisture content in the air above or around a forest is 10%-20% more than that of the places devoid of forest.

到2020年，全世界癌症的发病率有可能增加50个百分点，每年可能将出现1500万新病例。世界健康组织全球癌症报告指出，如果不采取积极的预防措施，这样的趋势将无法避免。因为这是从已经形成的生活习惯—例如抽烟—滋生出来的。（101字） 难点注释：
1）癌症的发病率cancer rate 2）世界健康组织The World Health Organization 3）无法避免inevitable
Cancer rates worldwide could increase by 50 percent by 2020，reaching 15 million new cases a year. The World Health Organization's World Cancer Report says that if no preventive measures are taken increases of this order are inevitable because they stem from habits-such as smoking-that are already established.
