　例题一 　　围绕“思维意识是编织大师，它创造了我们内在性格与外部环境”这一主题，詹姆斯?爱伦《思考的人》一书深入地探索了自助类读物的真谛。 【参考译文】 　　With its theme that “Mind is the master weaver,” creating our inner character and outer circumstances, the book As a Man Thinking by James Allen is an in-depth exploration of the central idea of self-help writing. 　　例题二 　　爱伦的贡献在于，他拿出“我们并不是机器人，所以能控制自己的思想”这一公认的假设，并揭示了其错误所在。 【参考译文】 　　Allen’s contribution was to take an assumption we all share-that because we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts-and reveal its erroneous nature. 　例题三 因为我们大都相信意识是独立于物质存在的，所以我们认为能够将思想隐藏、并使之失去效力;这使得我们能够这样想却那样做。 【参考译文】 　　Because most of us believe that mind is separate from matter, we think that thoughts can be hidden and made powerless; this allows us to think one way and act another. 　　例题四 　　但爱伦认为，潜意识和意识产生的作用一样大。 　　【参考译文】 However, Allen believed that the unconscious mind generates as much action as the conscious mind.　 例题五 而且，尽管我们或许可以单凭意识来维系“控制”这种错觉，现实中我们还是不断要面对一个问题：“我为什么不能让自己做这个或实现那个?” 【参考译文】 And while we may be able to sustain the illusion of control through the conscious mind alone, in reality we are continually faced with a question: “Why cannot I make myself do this or achieve that? 例题六 由于愿望和意志会因为那些与愿望不一致的思想的出现而遭到破坏，爱伦做出如下总结：“所以我们所吸引的不是我们所想，而是我们本身所是。” 【参考译文】Since desire and will are damaged by the presence of thoughts that do not accord with desire, Allen concluded: “We do not attract what we want, but what we are.” 例题七 成功降临是因为作为一个人你本身就是这种外部成功的体现;你不是“获得”成功，而是“变得”成功。 【参考译文】Achievement happens because you as a person embody the external achievement; you don’t “ get” success but become it. 例题八 “意识”和“物质”之间没有间隔。【参考译文】 　There is no gap between mind and matter. 请将下面这段话翻译成英文： 　　一朵雪花的体态是轻盈的，宛如六枚小银针，千针万线，给南开大学校园绣出了合身的水晶外套。但是，正如童话世界也有缺陷一样，文史楼北墙边一株年轻的龙柏(cypress)，由于一夜风雪吹压，已经倾侧成30度斜角了。 　　远处走来几个身背照相机的年轻人。其中那位穿黑呢大衣的姑娘真美，一双亮晶晶杏核儿大眼，似湖?似星?谁也说不清，只惹得路人不时侧目朝她张望。这群市大学生摄影协会会员准备捕捉大自然恩赐的美妙镜头，心情舒畅地说笑着，渐渐地走近这棵倾斜的龙柏。 参考翻译： Snowflakes are light, each having six tiny silverneedles.Like thousands of needles an
