前 言
阅读是语言学习考核的重点和难点
不少读者已经注意到近几年的中高考阅读理解题在选材方面非常注重题材
的多样化交际化和生活化通过故事报道议论文等形式关注社会热点现象突出
语境设计和语言运用同时逐渐重视英语文化的渗透这种趋势说明在保留考查学
生的语言知识和技能的同时对学生的语言应用能力和跨文化交际能力也提出了更
高的要求这正是教学改革的趋势自主招生考核的动向新教学大纲精神的体现
本套丛书正是在这一背景下应运而生
本套丛书旨在给学生提供晨读使用的英语时文材料对最新热点话题的捕捉使
得选材贴近生活能够为学生所喜闻乐见同时结合晨读时段的特点和训练形式精
心编排板块能帮助学生安排好晨读节奏有效提高英语语感扩充阅读知识面对学
生提高阅读水平有很大促进作用
丛书按年级设置涵盖初高中阶段七年级～高三年级共6本单册每册分20周
安排晨读内容每周从周一～周五安排时文朗读共100篇文章
根据各年级学生接受水平的不同本套丛书有序排列循序渐进逐年级体现难
度的递进性比如在选文长度上初中大致在150～300单词左右高中则在350～600单词左右题材上基本覆盖了时下的热门现象和热点话题类别包括自然地理科学
技术政治经济体育运动养生保健教育学习调查研究环球博览节日习俗娱乐
休闲交通通信社会百态职场人生文化生活等
丛书中每篇时文包括六部分一ldquo给力热身站rdquo是根据选文内容设计的开放式
问题供学生思考回答书后附有参考答案二ldquo晨读文选rdquo三ldquo生词rdquo将选文中较难
的词按出现的顺序逐一标出并解释四ldquo长难句分析rdquo对选文中较复杂的句子进行
了句法上的分析帮助学生更好地理解文章同时巩固所学语法知识五ldquo译文rdquo是
对选文的翻译六ldquo推荐语句背诵rdquo此部分将文中较为精彩经典的语句标出供学
生记忆由此可以看出本套丛书在扩充学生知识面加大文化浸染的同时也能兼
顾到学生的语言能力提高其获取信息分辨整合信息加工发展信息的能力
传统的晨读文章多半选取的是富有哲理的美文这种文章易于背诵语言优美
但题材相对单一容易产生审美疲劳本套丛书选文时代感强题材丰富话题新颖
文化色彩浓厚能极大地扩充学生的知识面以便学生了解世界正在发生的事情正
在谈论的话题从而帮助学生彻底摆脱ldquo两耳不闻窗外事一心只读圣贤书rdquo的传统
形象
需要指出的是丛书的定位是时文选取的都是当下最真实最鲜活的语言由于
题材包罗万象读者难免会觉得有些文章生词数量稍多尤其是在科技说明文中这
是不可避免的读者大可不必望而止步 首先较难的词尤其是专业词汇在文中或生
词部分都已标出不影响阅读其次对照参考译文理解原文毫无问题再次如果为
了完全照顾学生的现有语言水平而对文章作大幅度的修改这样学生的词汇量得不
到提高同时也影响语言的真实性和时文信息的有效性其实在真实的语境下进行
浸润式阅读读者能在不知不觉当中提高自身的语言能力当然这也意味着本书中
的文章同样值得在晨读以外的时间好好研读
另外为了保证文章富有时代感部分选文来自报刊网络在此对原作者深表谢
意如有疑问可联系 tfm328yahoocom囿于编者水平不足之处敬请读者指正

1 Why did he want to write this letter2 What does education really mean in his opinion
Dear DaughterAs we drove off from ColumbiaI wanted to write a letter to you to tell you all that is on
my mindFirstI want to tell you how proud we are Getting into Columbia is a real testament of

College will be the most important years in your life It is in college that you will trulydiscover what learning is about You often questionldquowhat good is this courserdquo I encourageyou to be inquisitivebut I also want to tell youldquoeducation is what you have left after all thatis taught is forgottenrdquoWhat I mean by that is the materials taught isn1049011t as important as yougaining the ability to learn a new subjectand the ability to analyze a new problem That isreally what learning in college is about mdash this will be the period where you go fromteacher-taught to master-inspiredafter which you must become self-learner So do take eachsubject seriouslyand even if what you learn isn1049011t critical for your lifethe skills of learningwill be something you cherish forever

亲爱的女儿

学生最近你的学业艺术和社交技能都有卓越的表现无论是你高中微积分第一名时尚的设计绘

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒
（未完待续）
It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about在大学里你会发现学习的真谛

最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友快乐生活大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友因为
在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往另外在一块儿成长一起独立很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在
一起成为密友你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友跟他们亲近别在乎他们的爱好成绩外表甚至
性格你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友所以相信自己的直觉再交一些新朋友
吧你是一个真诚的人任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的所以要自信外向主动一点如果你喜欢某
人就告诉她就算她拒绝了你也没有损失什么以最大的善意去对人不要有成见要宽容人无
完人只要他们很真诚就信任他们对他们友善他们将给你相同的回报这是我成功的秘密mdashmdash
我以诚待人信任他人（除非他们做了失信于我的事）有人告诉我这样有时我会被占便宜他们是
对的但是我可以告诉你以诚待人让我得到的远远超过我失去的在我做管理的18年里我学到
了一件很重要的事mdashmdash要想得到他人的信任和尊重只有先去信任和尊重他人无论是管理工作
交友这点都值得你参考
要和你高中时代的朋友保持联系但是不要用他们来取代大学的友谊也不要把全部的时间都

花在老朋友身上因为那样你就会失去交新朋友的机会
我告诉你妈妈我在写这封信问她有什么想对你说的她想了想说ldquo让她好好照顾自己rdquo很
简单却饱含着真切的关心mdashmdash这一向是你深爱的妈妈的特点这短短的一句话是她想提醒你很多
事情你将变得独立需要自己照顾自己比如要记得自己按时吃药好好睡觉保持健康的饮食适
量运动不舒服的时候要去看医生等中国有句古语ldquo身体发肤受之父母不敢毁伤孝之始也rdquo
这句话的意思用比较新的方法诠释就是说父母最爱的就是你所以照顾好自己就是孝顺最好的方
法当你成为母亲的那天你就会理解这些在那天之前听妈妈的你一定要好好照顾自己
大学是你自由时间最多的四年
大学是你第一次学会独立的四年
大学是可塑性最强的四年
大学是犯错代价最低的四年
所以珍惜你的大学时光吧好好利用你的空闲时间成为掌握自己命运的独立思考者发展自
己的多元化才能大胆地去尝试通过不断的成功和挑战来学习和成长成为融汇中西的人才
当我在 2005 年面对人生最大的挑战时你给了我大大的拥抱还跟我说了一句法语ldquobonnechancerdquo这句话代表ldquo祝你勇敢祝你好运rdquo现在我也想跟你说同样的话bonne chance我的天使

Lin Shuhao is the first Chinese-American player in the NBAand spent his first seasonwith the Golden State Warriorswho signed the undrafted Harvard graduate in 2010 to fill outtheir roster He saw limited minutes with the Warriorsbut was cheered in arenas around thecountryparticularly in cities with large Asian communitiesas fans came out in droves tocheer their homegrown star
To be sureLin is a different kind of Asian basketball player from Yao Ming While Yao1049011ssize put him in a somewhat self-selecting group mdash people north of seven feet tall can certainlydo a wide range of thingsbut they1049011re frequently drafted into playing basketball mdash Lin wentfrom Palo Alto High School to an economics degree at Harvardbut remained committed tomaking it as a professional basketball player（Yao recently enrolled at Jiaotong University1049011sAntai Economics and Management College as his post-retirement career rolls on）
It hasn1049011t been an easy road for Lin He has made several trips to the NBA1049011s DevelopmentLeaguea minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they cancompete at the highest level
It appears to have paid off After keying the Knicks victory over New JerseyLin wasnamed the starter for the Utah gamea position he appears to have a hold on in the short term
as Baron Davissigned in December to play the positionlingers on the disabled list due to aherniated disk in his back
If he can stick with the Knicksthe stars may have aligned for Lin Knicks coach MikeD1049011Antoni made a name for himself with a frenetic style of play that puts particular focus onthe point guard position
After collaborating with guard Steve Nash for five successful seasons with the PhoenixSunsD1049011Antoni moved to New Yorkwhere he hasn1049011t won as much but has coached uppreviously middling point guards into stronger players Chris Duhon and Raymond Feltonboth overcame images as limited talents under D1049011Antoniblossoming into play makers
Lin1049011s knack for driving to the basket and finding open teammates makes him a good fitfor the D1049011Antoni moldbut he still has a lot of work to do before he1049011s a proven NBA star
The constant running in D1049011Antoni1049011s offensedubbedldquoSeven Seconds or Lessrdquofor thetime expected in which the team should shoot the balldemands great fitness mdash Lin appearedwinded at the end of the Utah game But he1049011ll likely get stronger the more minutes he playsand even if Davis returnsspelling the olderrecovering player could be productive for Linaproven good student who can learn a lot from practicing against a veteran
And should things not work out for him in New Yorkhe would almost certainly giveformer Knick Stephon Marbury a run for his money as the biggest star in China1049011s own basketballleague

前 言
阅读是语言学习考核的重点和难点
不少读者已经注意到近几年的中高考阅读理解题在选材方面非常注重题材
的多样化交际化和生活化通过故事报道议论文等形式关注社会热点现象突出
语境设计和语言运用同时逐渐重视英语文化的渗透这种趋势说明在保留考查学
生的语言知识和技能的同时对学生的语言应用能力和跨文化交际能力也提出了更
高的要求这正是教学改革的趋势自主招生考核的动向新教学大纲精神的体现
本套丛书正是在这一背景下应运而生
本套丛书旨在给学生提供晨读使用的英语时文材料对最新热点话题的捕捉使
得选材贴近生活能够为学生所喜闻乐见同时结合晨读时段的特点和训练形式精
心编排板块能帮助学生安排好晨读节奏有效提高英语语感扩充阅读知识面对学
生提高阅读水平有很大促进作用
丛书按年级设置涵盖初高中阶段七年级～高三年级共6本单册每册分20周
安排晨读内容每周从周一～周五安排时文朗读共100篇文章
根据各年级学生接受水平的不同本套丛书有序排列循序渐进逐年级体现难
度的递进性比如在选文长度上初中大致在150～300单词左右高中则在350～600单词左右题材上基本覆盖了时下的热门现象和热点话题类别包括自然地理科学
技术政治经济体育运动养生保健教育学习调查研究环球博览节日习俗娱乐
休闲交通通信社会百态职场人生文化生活等
丛书中每篇时文包括六部分一ldquo给力热身站rdquo是根据选文内容设计的开放式
问题供学生思考回答书后附有参考答案二ldquo晨读文选rdquo三ldquo生词rdquo将选文中较难
的词按出现的顺序逐一标出并解释四ldquo长难句分析rdquo对选文中较复杂的句子进行
了句法上的分析帮助学生更好地理解文章同时巩固所学语法知识五ldquo译文rdquo是
对选文的翻译六ldquo推荐语句背诵rdquo此部分将文中较为精彩经典的语句标出供学
生记忆由此可以看出本套丛书在扩充学生知识面加大文化浸染的同时也能兼
顾到学生的语言能力提高其获取信息分辨整合信息加工发展信息的能力
传统的晨读文章多半选取的是富有哲理的美文这种文章易于背诵语言优美
但题材相对单一容易产生审美疲劳本套丛书选文时代感强题材丰富话题新颖
文化色彩浓厚能极大地扩充学生的知识面以便学生了解世界正在发生的事情正
在谈论的话题从而帮助学生彻底摆脱ldquo两耳不闻窗外事一心只读圣贤书rdquo的传统
形象
需要指出的是丛书的定位是时文选取的都是当下最真实最鲜活的语言由于
题材包罗万象读者难免会觉得有些文章生词数量稍多尤其是在科技说明文中这
是不可避免的读者大可不必望而止步 首先较难的词尤其是专业词汇在文中或生
词部分都已标出不影响阅读其次对照参考译文理解原文毫无问题再次如果为
了完全照顾学生的现有语言水平而对文章作大幅度的修改这样学生的词汇量得不
到提高同时也影响语言的真实性和时文信息的有效性其实在真实的语境下进行
浸润式阅读读者能在不知不觉当中提高自身的语言能力当然这也意味着本书中
的文章同样值得在晨读以外的时间好好研读
另外为了保证文章富有时代感部分选文来自报刊网络在此对原作者深表谢
意如有疑问可联系 tfm328yahoocom囿于编者水平不足之处敬请读者指正

1 Why did he want to write this letter2 What does education really mean in his opinion
Dear DaughterAs we drove off from ColumbiaI wanted to write a letter to you to tell you all that is on
my mindFirstI want to tell you how proud we are Getting into Columbia is a real testament of
what a great well-rounded student you are Your academicartisticand social skills havetruly blossomed in the last few years Whether it is getting the highest grade in Calculuscompleting your elegant fashion designsuccessfully selling your painted running shoesorbecoming one of the top orators in Model United Nationsyou have become a talented andaccomplished young woman You should be as proud of yourself as we are
College will be the most important years in your life It is in college that you will trulydiscover what learning is about You often questionldquowhat good is this courserdquo I encourageyou to be inquisitivebut I also want to tell youldquoeducation is what you have left after all thatis taught is forgottenrdquoWhat I mean by that is the materials taught isn1049011t as important as yougaining the ability to learn a new subjectand the ability to analyze a new problem That isreally what learning in college is about mdash this will be the period where you go fromteacher-taught to master-inspiredafter which you must become self-learner So do take eachsubject seriouslyand even if what you learn isn1049011t critical for your lifethe skills of learningwill be something you cherish forever
Follow your passion in college Take courses you think you will enjoy Don1049011t be trappedin what others think or say Steve Jobs says when you are in collegeyour passion will createmany dotsand later in your life you will connect them In his great speech given at Stanfordcommencementhe gave the great example where he took calligraphyand a decade laterit

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒
（未完待续）
It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about在大学里你会发现学习的真谛

最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友快乐生活大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友因为
在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往另外在一块儿成长一起独立很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在
一起成为密友你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友跟他们亲近别在乎他们的爱好成绩外表甚至
性格你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友所以相信自己的直觉再交一些新朋友
吧你是一个真诚的人任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的所以要自信外向主动一点如果你喜欢某
人就告诉她就算她拒绝了你也没有损失什么以最大的善意去对人不要有成见要宽容人无
完人只要他们很真诚就信任他们对他们友善他们将给你相同的回报这是我成功的秘密mdashmdash
我以诚待人信任他人（除非他们做了失信于我的事）有人告诉我这样有时我会被占便宜他们是
对的但是我可以告诉你以诚待人让我得到的远远超过我失去的在我做管理的18年里我学到
了一件很重要的事mdashmdash要想得到他人的信任和尊重只有先去信任和尊重他人无论是管理工作
交友这点都值得你参考
要和你高中时代的朋友保持联系但是不要用他们来取代大学的友谊也不要把全部的时间都

The First Chinese-American Player in theNBA
首位进入NBA的美籍华人球员
1 Who is the first ChineseAmerican player in the NBA 2 What makes him a good fit for the DrsquoAntoni mold
006
高二 第1周
Lin Shuhao is the first Chinese-American player in the NBAand spent his first seasonwith the Golden State Warriorswho signed the undrafted Harvard graduate in 2010 to fill outtheir roster He saw limited minutes with the Warriorsbut was cheered in arenas around thecountryparticularly in cities with large Asian communitiesas fans came out in droves tocheer their homegrown star
To be sureLin is a different kind of Asian basketball player from Yao Ming While Yao1049011ssize put him in a somewhat self-selecting group mdash people north of seven feet tall can certainlydo a wide range of thingsbut they1049011re frequently drafted into playing basketball mdash Lin wentfrom Palo Alto High School to an economics degree at Harvardbut remained committed tomaking it as a professional basketball player（Yao recently enrolled at Jiaotong University1049011sAntai Economics and Management College as his post-retirement career rolls on）
It hasn1049011t been an easy road for Lin He has made several trips to the NBA1049011s DevelopmentLeaguea minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they cancompete at the highest level
It appears to have paid off After keying the Knicks victory over New JerseyLin wasnamed the starter for the Utah gamea position he appears to have a hold on in the short term
as Baron Davissigned in December to play the positionlingers on the disabled list due to aherniated disk in his back
If he can stick with the Knicksthe stars may have aligned for Lin Knicks coach MikeD1049011Antoni made a name for himself with a frenetic style of play that puts particular focus onthe point guard position
After collaborating with guard Steve Nash for five successful seasons with the PhoenixSunsD1049011Antoni moved to New Yorkwhere he hasn1049011t won as much but has coached uppreviously middling point guards into stronger players Chris Duhon and Raymond Feltonboth overcame images as limited talents under D1049011Antoniblossoming into play makers
Lin1049011s knack for driving to the basket and finding open teammates makes him a good fitfor the D1049011Antoni moldbut he still has a lot of work to do before he1049011s a proven NBA star
The constant running in D1049011Antoni1049011s offensedubbedldquoSeven Seconds or Lessrdquofor thetime expected in which the team should shoot the balldemands great fitness mdash Lin appearedwinded at the end of the Utah game But he1049011ll likely get stronger the more minutes he playsand even if Davis returnsspelling the olderrecovering player could be productive for Linaproven good student who can learn a lot from practicing against a veteran
And should things not work out for him in New Yorkhe would almost certainly giveformer Knick Stephon Marbury a run for his money as the biggest star in China1049011s own basketballleague

前 言
阅读是语言学习考核的重点和难点
不少读者已经注意到近几年的中高考阅读理解题在选材方面非常注重题材
的多样化交际化和生活化通过故事报道议论文等形式关注社会热点现象突出
语境设计和语言运用同时逐渐重视英语文化的渗透这种趋势说明在保留考查学
生的语言知识和技能的同时对学生的语言应用能力和跨文化交际能力也提出了更
高的要求这正是教学改革的趋势自主招生考核的动向新教学大纲精神的体现
本套丛书正是在这一背景下应运而生
本套丛书旨在给学生提供晨读使用的英语时文材料对最新热点话题的捕捉使
得选材贴近生活能够为学生所喜闻乐见同时结合晨读时段的特点和训练形式精
心编排板块能帮助学生安排好晨读节奏有效提高英语语感扩充阅读知识面对学
生提高阅读水平有很大促进作用
丛书按年级设置涵盖初高中阶段七年级～高三年级共6本单册每册分20周
安排晨读内容每周从周一～周五安排时文朗读共100篇文章
根据各年级学生接受水平的不同本套丛书有序排列循序渐进逐年级体现难
度的递进性比如在选文长度上初中大致在150～300单词左右高中则在350～600单词左右题材上基本覆盖了时下的热门现象和热点话题类别包括自然地理科学
技术政治经济体育运动养生保健教育学习调查研究环球博览节日习俗娱乐
休闲交通通信社会百态职场人生文化生活等
丛书中每篇时文包括六部分一ldquo给力热身站rdquo是根据选文内容设计的开放式
问题供学生思考回答书后附有参考答案二ldquo晨读文选rdquo三ldquo生词rdquo将选文中较难
的词按出现的顺序逐一标出并解释四ldquo长难句分析rdquo对选文中较复杂的句子进行
了句法上的分析帮助学生更好地理解文章同时巩固所学语法知识五ldquo译文rdquo是
对选文的翻译六ldquo推荐语句背诵rdquo此部分将文中较为精彩经典的语句标出供学
生记忆由此可以看出本套丛书在扩充学生知识面加大文化浸染的同时也能兼
顾到学生的语言能力提高其获取信息分辨整合信息加工发展信息的能力
传统的晨读文章多半选取的是富有哲理的美文这种文章易于背诵语言优美
但题材相对单一容易产生审美疲劳本套丛书选文时代感强题材丰富话题新颖
文化色彩浓厚能极大地扩充学生的知识面以便学生了解世界正在发生的事情正
在谈论的话题从而帮助学生彻底摆脱ldquo两耳不闻窗外事一心只读圣贤书rdquo的传统
形象
需要指出的是丛书的定位是时文选取的都是当下最真实最鲜活的语言由于
题材包罗万象读者难免会觉得有些文章生词数量稍多尤其是在科技说明文中这
是不可避免的读者大可不必望而止步 首先较难的词尤其是专业词汇在文中或生
词部分都已标出不影响阅读其次对照参考译文理解原文毫无问题再次如果为
了完全照顾学生的现有语言水平而对文章作大幅度的修改这样学生的词汇量得不
到提高同时也影响语言的真实性和时文信息的有效性其实在真实的语境下进行
浸润式阅读读者能在不知不觉当中提高自身的语言能力当然这也意味着本书中
的文章同样值得在晨读以外的时间好好研读
另外为了保证文章富有时代感部分选文来自报刊网络在此对原作者深表谢
意如有疑问可联系 tfm328yahoocom囿于编者水平不足之处敬请读者指正

Dear DaughterAs we drove off from ColumbiaI wanted to write a letter to you to tell you all that is on

what a great well-rounded student you are Your academicartisticand social skills havetruly blossomed in the last few years Whether it is getting the highest grade in Calculuscompleting your elegant fashion designsuccessfully selling your painted running shoesorbecoming one of the top orators in Model United Nationsyou have become a talented andaccomplished young woman You should be as proud of yourself as we are
College will be the most important years in your life It is in college that you will trulydiscover what learning is about You often questionldquowhat good is this courserdquo I encourageyou to be inquisitivebut I also want to tell youldquoeducation is what you have left after all thatis taught is forgottenrdquoWhat I mean by that is the materials taught isn1049011t as important as yougaining the ability to learn a new subjectand the ability to analyze a new problem That isreally what learning in college is about mdash this will be the period where you go fromteacher-taught to master-inspiredafter which you must become self-learner So do take eachsubject seriouslyand even if what you learn isn1049011t critical for your lifethe skills of learningwill be something you cherish forever
Follow your passion in college Take courses you think you will enjoy Don1049011t be trappedin what others think or say Steve Jobs says when you are in collegeyour passion will createmany dotsand later in your life you will connect them In his great speech given at Stanfordcommencementhe gave the great example where he took calligraphyand a decade laterit

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒
（未完待续）
It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about在大学里你会发现学习的真谛

最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友快乐生活大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友因为
在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往另外在一块儿成长一起独立很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在
一起成为密友你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友跟他们亲近别在乎他们的爱好成绩外表甚至
性格你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友所以相信自己的直觉再交一些新朋友
吧你是一个真诚的人任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的所以要自信外向主动一点如果你喜欢某
人就告诉她就算她拒绝了你也没有损失什么以最大的善意去对人不要有成见要宽容人无
完人只要他们很真诚就信任他们对他们友善他们将给你相同的回报这是我成功的秘密mdashmdash
我以诚待人信任他人（除非他们做了失信于我的事）有人告诉我这样有时我会被占便宜他们是
对的但是我可以告诉你以诚待人让我得到的远远超过我失去的在我做管理的18年里我学到
了一件很重要的事mdashmdash要想得到他人的信任和尊重只有先去信任和尊重他人无论是管理工作
交友这点都值得你参考
要和你高中时代的朋友保持联系但是不要用他们来取代大学的友谊也不要把全部的时间都

The First Chinese-American Player in theNBA
首位进入NBA的美籍华人球员
1 Who is the first ChineseAmerican player in the NBA 2 What makes him a good fit for the DrsquoAntoni mold
006
高二 第1周
Lin Shuhao is the first Chinese-American player in the NBAand spent his first seasonwith the Golden State Warriorswho signed the undrafted Harvard graduate in 2010 to fill outtheir roster He saw limited minutes with the Warriorsbut was cheered in arenas around thecountryparticularly in cities with large Asian communitiesas fans came out in droves tocheer their homegrown star
To be sureLin is a different kind of Asian basketball player from Yao Ming While Yao1049011ssize put him in a somewhat self-selecting group mdash people north of seven feet tall can certainlydo a wide range of thingsbut they1049011re frequently drafted into playing basketball mdash Lin wentfrom Palo Alto High School to an economics degree at Harvardbut remained committed tomaking it as a professional basketball player（Yao recently enrolled at Jiaotong University1049011sAntai Economics and Management College as his post-retirement career rolls on）
It hasn1049011t been an easy road for Lin He has made several trips to the NBA1049011s DevelopmentLeaguea minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they cancompete at the highest level
It appears to have paid off After keying the Knicks victory over New JerseyLin wasnamed the starter for the Utah gamea position he appears to have a hold on in the short term
as Baron Davissigned in December to play the positionlingers on the disabled list due to aherniated disk in his back
If he can stick with the Knicksthe stars may have aligned for Lin Knicks coach MikeD1049011Antoni made a name for himself with a frenetic style of play that puts particular focus onthe point guard position
After collaborating with guard Steve Nash for five successful seasons with the PhoenixSunsD1049011Antoni moved to New Yorkwhere he hasn1049011t won as much but has coached uppreviously middling point guards into stronger players Chris Duhon and Raymond Feltonboth overcame images as limited talents under D1049011Antoniblossoming into play makers
Lin1049011s knack for driving to the basket and finding open teammates makes him a good fitfor the D1049011Antoni moldbut he still has a lot of work to do before he1049011s a proven NBA star
The constant running in D1049011Antoni1049011s offensedubbedldquoSeven Seconds or Lessrdquofor thetime expected in which the team should shoot the balldemands great fitness mdash Lin appearedwinded at the end of the Utah game But he1049011ll likely get stronger the more minutes he playsand even if Davis returnsspelling the olderrecovering player could be productive for Linaproven good student who can learn a lot from practicing against a veteran
And should things not work out for him in New Yorkhe would almost certainly giveformer Knick Stephon Marbury a run for his money as the biggest star in China1049011s own basketballleague

College will be the most important years in your life It is in college that you will trulydiscover what learning is about You often questionldquowhat good is this courserdquo I encourageyou to be inquisitivebut I also want to tell youldquoeducation is what you have left after all thatis taught is forgottenrdquoWhat I mean by that is the materials taught isn1049011t as important as yougaining the ability to learn a new subjectand the ability to analyze a new problem That isreally what learning in college is about mdash this will be the period where you go fromteacher-taught to master-inspiredafter which you must become self-learner So do take eachsubject seriouslyand even if what you learn isn1049011t critical for your lifethe skills of learningwill be something you cherish forever
Follow your passion in college Take courses you think you will enjoy Don1049011t be trappedin what others think or say Steve Jobs says when you are in collegeyour passion will createmany dotsand later in your life you will connect them In his great speech given at Stanfordcommencementhe gave the great example where he took calligraphyand a decade laterit

Do your best in classesbut don1049011t let pressure get to you Your mother and I have noexpectations for your grades If you graduate and learn something in your four yearswewould feel happy Your Columbia degree will take you fareven if you don1049011t graduate withhonors So please don1049011t give yourself pressure During your last few months in high schoolyou were so happy because there was little pressure and college applications are finished Butin the past few weekswe saw you are beginning to worry（did you know you bite your nailswhen you are nervous） Please don1049011t be worried The only thing that matters is that youlearned The only metric you should use is that you tried Grades are just silly letters that givethe vain people something to bragand the lazy people something to fear You are too good tobe either

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒
（未完待续）
It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about在大学里你会发现学习的真谛

最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友快乐生活大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友因为
在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往另外在一块儿成长一起独立很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在
一起成为密友你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友跟他们亲近别在乎他们的爱好成绩外表甚至
性格你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友所以相信自己的直觉再交一些新朋友
吧你是一个真诚的人任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的所以要自信外向主动一点如果你喜欢某
人就告诉她就算她拒绝了你也没有损失什么以最大的善意去对人不要有成见要宽容人无
完人只要他们很真诚就信任他们对他们友善他们将给你相同的回报这是我成功的秘密mdashmdash
我以诚待人信任他人（除非他们做了失信于我的事）有人告诉我这样有时我会被占便宜他们是
对的但是我可以告诉你以诚待人让我得到的远远超过我失去的在我做管理的18年里我学到
了一件很重要的事mdashmdash要想得到他人的信任和尊重只有先去信任和尊重他人无论是管理工作
交友这点都值得你参考
要和你高中时代的朋友保持联系但是不要用他们来取代大学的友谊也不要把全部的时间都

It hasn1049011t been an easy road for Lin He has made several trips to the NBA1049011s DevelopmentLeaguea minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they cancompete at the highest level
It appears to have paid off After keying the Knicks victory over New JerseyLin wasnamed the starter for the Utah gamea position he appears to have a hold on in the short term
as Baron Davissigned in December to play the positionlingers on the disabled list due to aherniated disk in his back
If he can stick with the Knicksthe stars may have aligned for Lin Knicks coach MikeD1049011Antoni made a name for himself with a frenetic style of play that puts particular focus onthe point guard position
After collaborating with guard Steve Nash for five successful seasons with the PhoenixSunsD1049011Antoni moved to New Yorkwhere he hasn1049011t won as much but has coached uppreviously middling point guards into stronger players Chris Duhon and Raymond Feltonboth overcame images as limited talents under D1049011Antoniblossoming into play makers
Lin1049011s knack for driving to the basket and finding open teammates makes him a good fitfor the D1049011Antoni moldbut he still has a lot of work to do before he1049011s a proven NBA star
The constant running in D1049011Antoni1049011s offensedubbedldquoSeven Seconds or Lessrdquofor thetime expected in which the team should shoot the balldemands great fitness mdash Lin appearedwinded at the end of the Utah game But he1049011ll likely get stronger the more minutes he playsand even if Davis returnsspelling the olderrecovering player could be productive for Linaproven good student who can learn a lot from practicing against a veteran
And should things not work out for him in New Yorkhe would almost certainly giveformer Knick Stephon Marbury a run for his money as the biggest star in China1049011s own basketballleague

College will be the most important years in your life It is in college that you will trulydiscover what learning is about You often questionldquowhat good is this courserdquo I encourageyou to be inquisitivebut I also want to tell youldquoeducation is what you have left after all thatis taught is forgottenrdquoWhat I mean by that is the materials taught isn1049011t as important as yougaining the ability to learn a new subjectand the ability to analyze a new problem That isreally what learning in college is about mdash this will be the period where you go fromteacher-taught to master-inspiredafter which you must become self-learner So do take eachsubject seriouslyand even if what you learn isn1049011t critical for your lifethe skills of learningwill be something you cherish forever
Follow your passion in college Take courses you think you will enjoy Don1049011t be trappedin what others think or say Steve Jobs says when you are in collegeyour passion will createmany dotsand later in your life you will connect them In his great speech given at Stanfordcommencementhe gave the great example where he took calligraphyand a decade laterit

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒
（未完待续）
It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about在大学里你会发现学习的真谛

最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友快乐生活大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友因为
在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往另外在一块儿成长一起独立很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在
一起成为密友你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友跟他们亲近别在乎他们的爱好成绩外表甚至
性格你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友所以相信自己的直觉再交一些新朋友
吧你是一个真诚的人任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的所以要自信外向主动一点如果你喜欢某
人就告诉她就算她拒绝了你也没有损失什么以最大的善意去对人不要有成见要宽容人无
完人只要他们很真诚就信任他们对他们友善他们将给你相同的回报这是我成功的秘密mdashmdash
我以诚待人信任他人（除非他们做了失信于我的事）有人告诉我这样有时我会被占便宜他们是
对的但是我可以告诉你以诚待人让我得到的远远超过我失去的在我做管理的18年里我学到
了一件很重要的事mdashmdash要想得到他人的信任和尊重只有先去信任和尊重他人无论是管理工作
交友这点都值得你参考
要和你高中时代的朋友保持联系但是不要用他们来取代大学的友谊也不要把全部的时间都

The First Chinese-American Player in theNBA

Lin Shuhao is the first Chinese-American player in the NBAand spent his first seasonwith the Golden State Warriorswho signed the undrafted Harvard graduate in 2010 to fill outtheir roster He saw limited minutes with the Warriorsbut was cheered in arenas around thecountryparticularly in cities with large Asian communitiesas fans came out in droves tocheer their homegrown star
To be sureLin is a different kind of Asian basketball player from Yao Ming While Yao1049011ssize put him in a somewhat self-selecting group mdash people north of seven feet tall can certainlydo a wide range of thingsbut they1049011re frequently drafted into playing basketball mdash Lin wentfrom Palo Alto High School to an economics degree at Harvardbut remained committed tomaking it as a professional basketball player（Yao recently enrolled at Jiaotong University1049011sAntai Economics and Management College as his post-retirement career rolls on）
It hasn1049011t been an easy road for Lin He has made several trips to the NBA1049011s DevelopmentLeaguea minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they cancompete at the highest level
It appears to have paid off After keying the Knicks victory over New JerseyLin wasnamed the starter for the Utah gamea position he appears to have a hold on in the short term
as Baron Davissigned in December to play the positionlingers on the disabled list due to aherniated disk in his back
If he can stick with the Knicksthe stars may have aligned for Lin Knicks coach MikeD1049011Antoni made a name for himself with a frenetic style of play that puts particular focus onthe point guard position
After collaborating with guard Steve Nash for five successful seasons with the PhoenixSunsD1049011Antoni moved to New Yorkwhere he hasn1049011t won as much but has coached uppreviously middling point guards into stronger players Chris Duhon and Raymond Feltonboth overcame images as limited talents under D1049011Antoniblossoming into play makers
Lin1049011s knack for driving to the basket and finding open teammates makes him a good fitfor the D1049011Antoni moldbut he still has a lot of work to do before he1049011s a proven NBA star

学生最近你的学业艺术和社交技能都有卓越的表现无论是你高中微积分第一名时尚的设计绘

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒
（未完待续）
It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about在大学里你会发现学习的真谛

最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友快乐生活大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友因为
在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往另外在一块儿成长一起独立很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在
一起成为密友你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友跟他们亲近别在乎他们的爱好成绩外表甚至
性格你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友所以相信自己的直觉再交一些新朋友
吧你是一个真诚的人任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的所以要自信外向主动一点如果你喜欢某
人就告诉她就算她拒绝了你也没有损失什么以最大的善意去对人不要有成见要宽容人无

The First Chinese-American Player in theNBA
首位进入NBA的美籍华人球员
1 Who is the first ChineseAmerican player in the NBA 2 What makes him a good fit for the DrsquoAntoni mold
006
高二 第1周
Lin Shuhao is the first Chinese-American player in the NBAand spent his first seasonwith the Golden State Warriorswho signed the undrafted Harvard graduate in 2010 to fill outtheir roster He saw limited minutes with the Warriorsbut was cheered in arenas around thecountryparticularly in cities with large Asian communitiesas fans came out in droves tocheer their homegrown star
To be sureLin is a different kind of Asian basketball player from Yao Ming While Yao1049011ssize put him in a somewhat self-selecting group mdash people north of seven feet tall can certainlydo a wide range of thingsbut they1049011re frequently drafted into playing basketball mdash Lin wentfrom Palo Alto High School to an economics degree at Harvardbut remained committed tomaking it as a professional basketball player（Yao recently enrolled at Jiaotong University1049011sAntai Economics and Management College as his post-retirement career rolls on）
It hasn1049011t been an easy road for Lin He has made several trips to the NBA1049011s DevelopmentLeaguea minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they cancompete at the highest level
It appears to have paid off After keying the Knicks victory over New JerseyLin wasnamed the starter for the Utah gamea position he appears to have a hold on in the short term
as Baron Davissigned in December to play the positionlingers on the disabled list due to aherniated disk in his back
If he can stick with the Knicksthe stars may have aligned for Lin Knicks coach MikeD1049011Antoni made a name for himself with a frenetic style of play that puts particular focus onthe point guard position
After collaborating with guard Steve Nash for five successful seasons with the PhoenixSunsD1049011Antoni moved to New Yorkwhere he hasn1049011t won as much but has coached uppreviously middling point guards into stronger players Chris Duhon and Raymond Feltonboth overcame images as limited talents under D1049011Antoniblossoming into play makers
Lin1049011s knack for driving to the basket and finding open teammates makes him a good fitfor the D1049011Antoni moldbut he still has a lot of work to do before he1049011s a proven NBA star
The constant running in D1049011Antoni1049011s offensedubbedldquoSeven Seconds or Lessrdquofor thetime expected in which the team should shoot the balldemands great fitness mdash Lin appearedwinded at the end of the Utah game But he1049011ll likely get stronger the more minutes he playsand even if Davis returnsspelling the olderrecovering player could be productive for Linaproven good student who can learn a lot from practicing against a veteran
And should things not work out for him in New Yorkhe would almost certainly giveformer Knick Stephon Marbury a run for his money as the biggest star in China1049011s own basketballleague

The First Chinese-American Player in theNBA
首位进入NBA的美籍华人球员
1 Who is the first ChineseAmerican player in the NBA 2 What makes him a good fit for the DrsquoAntoni mold
006
高二 第1周
Lin Shuhao is the first Chinese-American player in the NBAand spent his first seasonwith the Golden State Warriorswho signed the undrafted Harvard graduate in 2010 to fill outtheir roster He saw limited minutes with the Warriorsbut was cheered in arenas around thecountryparticularly in cities with large Asian communitiesas fans came out in droves tocheer their homegrown star
To be sureLin is a different kind of Asian basketball player from Yao Ming While Yao1049011ssize put him in a somewhat self-selecting group mdash people north of seven feet tall can certainlydo a wide range of thingsbut they1049011re frequently drafted into playing basketball mdash Lin wentfrom Palo Alto High School to an economics degree at Harvardbut remained committed tomaking it as a professional basketball player（Yao recently enrolled at Jiaotong University1049011sAntai Economics and Management College as his post-retirement career rolls on）
It hasn1049011t been an easy road for Lin He has made several trips to the NBA1049011s DevelopmentLeaguea minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they cancompete at the highest level
It appears to have paid off After keying the Knicks victory over New JerseyLin wasnamed the starter for the Utah gamea position he appears to have a hold on in the short term
as Baron Davissigned in December to play the positionlingers on the disabled list due to aherniated disk in his back
If he can stick with the Knicksthe stars may have aligned for Lin Knicks coach MikeD1049011Antoni made a name for himself with a frenetic style of play that puts particular focus onthe point guard position
After collaborating with guard Steve Nash for five successful seasons with the PhoenixSunsD1049011Antoni moved to New Yorkwhere he hasn1049011t won as much but has coached uppreviously middling point guards into stronger players Chris Duhon and Raymond Feltonboth overcame images as limited talents under D1049011Antoniblossoming into play makers
Lin1049011s knack for driving to the basket and finding open teammates makes him a good fitfor the D1049011Antoni moldbut he still has a lot of work to do before he1049011s a proven NBA star
The constant running in D1049011Antoni1049011s offensedubbedldquoSeven Seconds or Lessrdquofor thetime expected in which the team should shoot the balldemands great fitness mdash Lin appearedwinded at the end of the Utah game But he1049011ll likely get stronger the more minutes he playsand even if Davis returnsspelling the olderrecovering player could be productive for Linaproven good student who can learn a lot from practicing against a veteran
And should things not work out for him in New Yorkhe would almost certainly giveformer Knick Stephon Marbury a run for his money as the biggest star in China1049011s own basketballleague

亲爱的女儿
当我们开车驶出哥伦比亚大学的时候我想写一封信给你告诉你盘旋在我脑中的想法
首先我想告诉你我们为你感到特别骄傲进入哥伦比亚大学证明你是一个全面发展的优秀
学生最近你的学业艺术和社交技能都有卓越的表现无论是你高中微积分第一名时尚的设计绘
制的球鞋还是在ldquo模拟联合国rdquo的演说你毫无疑问已经是一个多才多艺的女孩你的父母为你感

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒

最重要的是在大学里你要交一些朋友快乐生活大学的朋友往往是生命中最好的朋友因为
在大学里你和朋友能够近距离交往另外在一块儿成长一起独立很自然地你们就会紧紧地系在
一起成为密友你应该挑选一些真诚诚恳的朋友跟他们亲近别在乎他们的爱好成绩外表甚至
性格你在高中的最后两年已经交到了一些真正的朋友所以相信自己的直觉再交一些新朋友
吧你是一个真诚的人任何人都会喜欢跟你做朋友的所以要自信外向主动一点如果你喜欢某
人就告诉她就算她拒绝了你也没有损失什么以最大的善意去对人不要有成见要宽容人无
完人只要他们很真诚就信任他们对他们友善他们将给你相同的回报这是我成功的秘密mdashmdash
我以诚待人信任他人（除非他们做了失信于我的事）有人告诉我这样有时我会被占便宜他们是
对的但是我可以告诉你以诚待人让我得到的远远超过我失去的在我做管理的18年里我学到
了一件很重要的事mdashmdash要想得到他人的信任和尊重只有先去信任和尊重他人无论是管理工作
交友这点都值得你参考
要和你高中时代的朋友保持联系但是不要用他们来取代大学的友谊也不要把全部的时间都

花在老朋友身上因为那样你就会失去交新朋友的机会
我告诉你妈妈我在写这封信问她有什么想对你说的她想了想说ldquo让她好好照顾自己rdquo很
简单却饱含着真切的关心mdashmdash这一向是你深爱的妈妈的特点这短短的一句话是她想提醒你很多
事情你将变得独立需要自己照顾自己比如要记得自己按时吃药好好睡觉保持健康的饮食适
量运动不舒服的时候要去看医生等中国有句古语ldquo身体发肤受之父母不敢毁伤孝之始也rdquo
这句话的意思用比较新的方法诠释就是说父母最爱的就是你所以照顾好自己就是孝顺最好的方

大学将是你人生最重要的时光在大学里你会发现学习的真谛你以前经常会问ldquo这个课程有
什么用rdquo这是个好问题但是我希望你理解ldquo教育的真谛就是当你忘记一切所学到的东西之后所
剩下的东西rdquo我的意思是最重要的不是你学到的具体知识而是你学习新事物和解决新问题的能
力这才是大学学习的真正意义mdashmdash这将是你从被动学习转向自主学习的阶段之后你会变成一个
很好的自学者所以即便你所学的不是生活中所急需的你也要认真看待大学里的每一门功课学
习的能力是你将受用终身的
在大学里你要追随自己的激情和兴趣选你感兴趣的课程不要困扰于别人怎么说或怎么想
史蒂夫middot乔布斯曾经说过在大学里你的热情会创造出很多点在你随后的生命中你会把这些点串联
起来在他著名的斯坦福毕业典礼演讲中他举了一个很好的例子他在大学里修了看似毫无用处
的书法而十年后这成了苹果Macintosh里漂亮字库的基础而因为Macintosh有这么好的字库才
带来了桌面出版和今天的办公软件（例如微软 Office）他对书法的探索就是一个点而苹果
Macintosh把多个点联结成了一条线所以不要太担心将来你要做什么样的工作也不要太急功近
利假如你喜欢日语或韩语就去学吧尽管你的爸爸曾说过那没什么用尽兴地选择你的点吧要
有信念有一天机缘来临时你会找到自己的人生使命画出一条美丽的曲线
在功课上要尽力但不要给自己太多压力你妈妈和我在成绩上对你没什么要求只要你能顺
利毕业并在这四年里学到了些东西我们就会很高兴了即便你毕业时没有获得优异的成绩你的
哥伦比亚学位也将带你走得很远所以别给自己压力在你高中生活的最后几个月因为压力比较
小大学申请也结束了你过得很开心但是在最近的几个星期你好像开始紧张起来（你注意到你
紧张时会咬指甲吗）千万别担心最重要的是你在学习你唯一需要衡量的是你的努力程度成绩
只不过是虚荣的人用以吹嘘和慵懒的人所恐惧的无聊数字而已而你既不虚荣也不慵懒
（未完待续）
It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about在大学里你会发现学习的真谛

事情你将变得独立需要自己照顾自己比如要记得自己按时吃药好好睡觉保持健康的饮食适
量运动不舒服的时候要去看医生等中国有句古语ldquo身体发肤受之父母不敢毁伤孝之始也rdquo
这句话的意思用比较新的方法诠释就是说父母最爱的就是你所以照顾好自己就是孝顺最好的方
法当你成为母亲的那天你就会理解这些在那天之前听妈妈的你一定要好好照顾自己
大学是你自由时间最多的四年
大学是你第一次学会独立的四年
大学是可塑性最强的四年
大学是犯错代价最低的四年
所以珍惜你的大学时光吧好好利用你的空闲时间成为掌握自己命运的独立思考者发展自
己的多元化才能大胆地去尝试通过不断的成功和挑战来学习和成长成为融汇中西的人才
当我在 2005 年面对人生最大的挑战时你给了我大大的拥抱还跟我说了一句法语ldquobonnechancerdquo这句话代表ldquo祝你勇敢祝你好运rdquo现在我也想跟你说同样的话bonne chance我的天使
和公主希望哥伦比亚成为你一生中最快乐的四年希望你成为你梦想成为的人
爱你的
爸爸（和妈妈）
