双语新闻-另类福利:日本公司请员工喝酒

  Boozing into the night might inhibit coherent speech, but a Japanese company bets it will make workers communicate better. And it's even willing to pay for it.

  Japan General Estate Co said Tuesday it is planning to dole out thousands of dollars a month for its employees to go on the town in a bid to help communication.

  Japanese companies routinely offer generous expense accounts to entertain clients, but the real estate company is going a step further by subsidising workers' drinking sessions with one another.

  The company plans to offer managers who supervise 20 or more people up to 300,000 yen (3,000 dollars) a month to take them out. Managers with fewer than 20 workers will get 200,000 yen, a company statement said.

  After-hours drinking is encouraged in Japanese corporate culture as a way to break the ice in work environments that can be uptight and formal.

  But critics say the pressure to drink is one of the reasons why Japan's population is declining as men in particular spend little time at home.

  Japan General Estate said the drinking benefits could alternatively be used for wedding or funeral expenses.

  The company is known for its unorthodox work policies, such as paying 100,000 yen in benefits every month to employees who do not smoke.

  喝酒至深夜可能会导致说话语无伦次,但日本一家公司却认为喝酒可以增进员工间的交流,而且甚至愿意为此买单。

  日本房地产总公司于本周二表示,公司计划每月为员工提供几千美元的"促进交流"活动经费。

  日本公司在招待客户方面一向慷慨大方,但这家房地产公司更胜一筹,甚至愿为员工喝酒聚会提供补贴。

  该公司在一项声明中表示,公司计划为管理20人以上的经理提供每月30万日元(合3000美元)的部门聚餐经费;手下员工不到20人的经理则可领到20万日元的经费。

  日本的企业文化鼓励员工下班后喝酒聚会,这样可以帮助员工在严肃紧张的工作环境中缓和气氛。

  但批评人士认为,喝酒应酬是日本人口持续下降的原因之一,特别是男性经常在外应酬,很少有时间在家。

  日本房地产总公司表示,酒水补贴也可用于婚葬支出。

  该公司一直以其"另类的"员工政策而著名,比如,不吸烟的员工每月可获10万日元的奖金。

美文欣赏-One Finger 一个手指

  "Mom, you should put some of your things away. Baby proof this house," stated our oldest son Mark as he lumbered up the stairs followed by his wife, Kim, and fifteen-month-old Hannah.

  Visiting for the Thanksgiving holiday, he finished unloading the luggage and took it to the guestroom downstairs. After driving all day from Salt Lake to Ft. Collins, his temper showed. "That one finger rule may work with the twins, but it'll never work with Hannah, " he insisted.

  When my three granddaughters were born four months apart and the twins moved into our house at eight months, my close friend offered me her secret to entertaining grandchildren with few mishaps. "Teach them the 'one finger rule'." All of her five grandchildren learned it at a young age. The success of the method surprised me.

  I picked up my granddaughter and said, "Well, Mark, you just watch." I hugged her and walked all around the great room.

  "Hannah, you may touch anything in this room you want. But, you can only use one finger." I demonstrated the technique by touching my forefinger to the African sculpture on the mantle. Hannah followed my example. "Good girl. Now what else would you like to touch?"

  She stretched her finger toward another object on the mantle. I allowed her to touch everything in sight, plants, glass objects, TV, VCR, lamps, speakers, candles and artificial flowers. If she started to grab, I gently reminded her to use one finger. She always obeyed. But, Hannah, an only child, possessed a more adventur ous personality. Her father predicted it would prevent her from accepting the"one finger"rule.

  During their four-day stay, we aided Hannah in remembering"one finger"rule. She learned quickly. I only put away the things that might prove to be a danger to a child. Otherwise, we watched her closely and nothing appeared to suffer any damage. Besides, "things"can be replaced.

  A few fingerprints on glass doors, windows and tables remained after Hannah and her family returned home. I couldn't bring myself to clean them for days. Each one reminded me of some wonderful experience with Hannah.

  Months later, my husband and I drove to Salt Lake; I watched Mark and Kim continue to practice the one finger rule. But I refrained from saying, "I told you so." Yet, I smiled inwardly each time they prodded Hannah to touch with "one finger. " Mark, a salesman, always gave a packet of gifts to his potential clients. The night before we returned home, Mark sat on the floor stuffing gifts into their packets. Hannah helped.

  Then she picked up one gift, held it in her hand as if it were a fragile bird, and walked toward me. At my knee, her beautiful blue eyes looked into mine. She stretched her prize to me and said, "One finger, Nana!"

想笑就笑-心目中的英雄Personal Hero

  Our granddaughter's second-grade class was asked to write about their personal heroes. Her father was flattered to find out that she had chosen him. "Why did you pick me?" he asked.

  "Because I couldn't spell Arnold Schwarzenegger," she said.

  我们的孙女儿读二年级,老师要求班上的同学写他们心目中的英雄。她的爸爸发现她选择了他,真是受宠若惊。"你为什么选我呢?"他问。  

  "因为我不会拼阿诺得.施瓦辛格(Arnold Schwarzenegger),"她说。

双语童话-荷马墓上的一朵玫瑰

            A Rose from Homer's Grave

                     By Hans Christian Andersen

  All the songs of the east speak of the love of the nightingale for the rose in the silent starlight night. The winged songster serenades the fragrant flowers.

Not far from Smyrna, where the merchant drives his loaded camels, proudly arching their long necks as they journey beneath the lofty pines over holy ground, I saw a hedge of roses. The turtle-dove flew among the branches of the tall trees, and as the sunbeams fell upon her wings, they glistened as if they were mother-of-pearl. On the rose-bush grew a flower, more beautiful than them all, and to her the nightingale sung of his woes; but the rose remained silent, not even a dewdrop lay like a tear of sympathy on her leaves. At last she bowed her head over a heap of stones, and said, "Here rests the greatest singer in the world; over his tomb will I spread my fragrance, and on it I will let my leaves fall when the storm scatters them. He who sung of Troy became earth, and from that earth I have sprung. I, a rose from the grave of Homer, am too lofty to bloom for a nightingale." Then the nightingale sung himself to death. A camel-driver came by, with his loaded camels and his black slaves; his little son found the dead bird, and buried the lovely songster in the grave of the great Homer, while the rose trembled in the wind.

The evening came, and the rose wrapped her leaves more closely round her, and dreamed: and this was her dream.

  It was a fair sunshiny day; a crowd of strangers drew near who had undertaken a pilgrimage to the grave of Homer. Among the strangers was a minstrel from the north, the home of the clouds and the brilliant lights of the aurora borealis. He plucked the rose and placed it in a book, and carried it away into a distant part of the world, his fatherland. The rose faded with grief, and lay between the leaves of the book, which he opened in his own home, saying, "Here is a rose from the grave of Homer."

  Then the flower awoke from her dream, and trembled in the wind. A drop of dew fell from the leaves upon the singer's grave. The sun rose, and the flower bloomed more beautiful than ever. The day was hot, and she was still in her own warm Asia. Then footsteps approached, strangers, such as the rose had seen in her dream, came by, and among them was a poet from the north; he plucked the rose, pressed a kiss upon her fresh mouth, and carried her away to the home of the clouds and the northern lights. Like a mummy, the flower now rests in his "Iliad," and, as in her dream, she hears him say, as he opens the book, "Here is a rose from the grave of Homer."

 

I. Translation for Reference(参考译文)

荷马墓上的一朵玫瑰

(注:荷马(Homer)是公元前1000年希腊的一个伟大诗人。他的两部驰名的 史诗《依里亚特》(Illiad)《奥德赛》(Odyssey)描写希腊人远征特洛伊城(Troy)的故事。此城在小亚细亚的西北部。)

  东方所有的歌曲都歌诵着夜莺对玫瑰花的爱情。在星星闪耀着的静夜里,这只有翼的歌手就为他芬芳的花儿唱一支情歌。离士麦那(注:士麦那(Smyrna)是土耳其西部的一个海口。)不远,在一株高 大的梧桐树下,商人赶着一群驮着东西的骆驼。这群牲口骄傲地昂起它们的长脖子,笨重地在这神圣的土地上行进。我看到开满了花的玫瑰树所组成的篱笆。野鸽子在高大的树枝间飞翔。当太阳射到它们身上的时候,它们的翅膀发着光,像珍珠一样。玫瑰树篱笆上有一朵花,一朵所有的鲜花中最美丽的花。夜莺对它唱出他的爱情的悲愁 。但是这朵玫瑰一句话也不讲,它的叶子上连一颗作为同情的眼泪的露珠都没有。它只是面 对着几块大石头垂下枝子。"这儿躺着世界上一个最伟大的歌手!"玫瑰花说。"我在他的墓上散发出香气;当暴 风雨袭来的时候,我的花瓣落到它身上,这位《依里亚特》的歌唱者变成了这块土地中的尘土,我从这尘土中发芽和生长!我是荷马墓上长出的一朵玫瑰。我是太神圣了,我不能为一个平凡的夜莺开出花来。"

  于是夜莺就一直歌唱到死。

  赶骆驼的商人带着驮着东西的牲口和黑奴走来了。他的小儿子看到了这只死鸟。他把这 只小小的歌手埋到伟大的荷马的墓里。那朵玫瑰花在风中发着抖。黄昏到来了。玫瑰花紧紧 地收敛起它的花瓣,做了一个梦。它梦见一个美丽的、阳光普照的日子。一群异国人--佛兰克人--来参拜荷马的坟墓 。在这些异国人之中有一位歌手;他来自北国,来自云块和北极光的故乡(注:指丹麦、挪威和瑞典。)。他摘下这朵玫瑰,把它夹在一本书里,然后把它带到世界的另一部分--他 的辽远的祖国里来。这朵玫瑰在悲哀中萎谢了,静静地躺在这本小书里。他在家里把这本书打开,说:"这是从荷马的墓上摘下的一朵玫瑰。"这就是这朵花做的一个梦。她惊醒起来,在风中发抖。于是一颗露珠从她的花瓣上滚到 这位歌手的墓上去。太阳升起来了,天气渐渐温暖起来,玫瑰花开得比以前还要美丽。她是 生长在温暖的亚洲。这时有脚步声音响起来了。玫瑰花在梦里所见到的那群佛兰克人来了; 在这些异国人中有一位北国的诗人:他摘下这朵玫瑰,在它新鲜的嘴唇上吻了一下,然后把它带到云块和北极光的故乡去。这朵花的躯体像木乃伊一样,现在躺在他的《依里亚特》里面它像在做梦一样,听到他打开这本书,说:"这是荷马墓上的一朵玫瑰。"

  (1842年)这是一首散文诗,收集在《诗人的集市》里。这大概也是安徒生在旅行中根据自己的见 闻有所感而写成的。文中的"一位北国诗人"可能就是他本人。那朵玫瑰有它坎坷的遭遇,诗人的一生中有时也有类似的经验。因此也只有他最能理解和钟爱这朵玫瑰花。

英文歌曲-Hold me 拥抱我

Hold me        Savage Garden

Hey if we can't find a way out of these problems

Then maybe we don't need this

Standing face to face

Enemies at war we build defenses

And secret hiding places

*I might need you to hold me tonight

I might need you to say it's alright

I might need you to make the first stand

Because tonight I'm finding it's hard to be your man

Hey

More than angry words I hate this silence

It's getting so loud

Well I want to scream

But bitterness has silenced these emotions

It's getting hard to breathe

So tell me

Isn't happiness worth more than a gold diamond ring?

I'm willing to do anything

To calm the storm in my heart

I've never been the praying kind

But lately I've been down upon my knees

Not looking for a miracle

Just a reason to believe (*)

Do you remember not long ago?

When we used to live for the nighttime

Cherish each moment

Now we don't live we exist

We just run through our lives

So alone

That's why you've got to hold me

Hey if we can't find a way out of these problems

Then maybe we don't need this

Standing face to face

Enemies at war we build defenses

And secret hiding places (*)

  

拥抱我        野人花园合唱团

嘿,如果这些问题找不到方法可解决

那么,也许我们不需如此

面对面站着

像战时的敌人,我们筑起了防御

秘密四处藏匿

今晚,我应该需要你拥抱我

我应该需要你说一切都没事了

我应该需要你挺身而出

因为,今晚我发现很难成为你的男人

和愤怒的言语比较,我更恨这沉默

它越来越喧嚣

我想尖叫

但苦痛使情绪静默下来

呼吸越来越困难

告诉我

快乐不是比金钻戒更有价值吗?

我愿意做任何事

以平息我心中的风暴

过去我从来不祷告

但最近我跪了下来

不是为了寻求奇迹

只为了一个相信的理由

你可记得在不久以前

我俩在夜里认真的生活

珍惜每个?那

如今,我们不再努力生活,只有生存

我俩只是在虚耗人生

如此孤寂

所以,你应该拥抱我

如果这些问题找不到方法可解决

那么,也许我们不需要这些

面对面站着

像战时的敌人,我们筑起了防御

秘密四处藏匿

双语诗歌-唐诗三百首(汉英版):青溪

青溪

王维

言入黄花川, 每逐青溪水。

随山将万转, 趣途无百里。

声喧乱石中, 色静深松里。

漾漾泛菱荇, 澄澄映葭苇。

我心素已闲, 清川澹如此。

请留盘石上, 垂钓将已矣。

 

A GREEN STREAM

Wang Wei

I have sailed the River of Yellow Flowers,

Borne by the channel of a green stream,

Rounding ten thousand turns through the mountains

On a journey of less than thirty miles….

Rapids hum over heaped rocks;

But where light grows dim in the thick pines,

The surface of an inlet sways with nut-horns

And weeds are lush along the banks.

…Down in my heart I have always been as pure

As this limpid water is….

Oh, to remain on a broad flat rock

And to cast a fishing-line forever!

英文演讲-President Bush Meets with His Majesty King Abdullah of Jordan

March 4, 2008

PRESIDENT BUSH: His Majesty and I will take a couple of questions after opening statements.

Your Majesty, I value your friendship and I value your leadership. And I appreciate you coming back. America has got no stronger friend in the Middle East than Jordan. And we appreciate the -- we appreciate your firmness when it comes to dealing with terror and extremism. We appreciate the heart when it comes to people -- your heart when it comes to people who suffer.

We spent a lot of time talking about the Middle Eastern peace process. A couple of points I want to reiterate. One is that the United States is engaged and will remain engaged in helping convince the Prime Minister of Israel and President Abbas that now is the time to formulate a vision of what a state will look like.

And secondly, I assured His Majesty this is a major focus of my administration and that I would like to see that vision, the process that we have started in Annapolis, finished prior to my departure from the presidency. In other words, there is a -- people say, well, you always set -- you're hesitant to set timetables. But there happens to be a timetable as far as I'm concerned, and that is, I'm leaving office. And Secretary Rice is in the region today and she's -- she is making our views known, that we expect these leaders to step up and make hard decisions. And I told His Majesty I'm optimistic -- still as optimistic as I was after Annapolis.

And so we welcome you, sir, and thank you for your passion.

KING ABDULLAH: Thank you very much, Mr. President. It is obviously a great honor to be back here and to be with you. We tremendously appreciate the warm relationship and the great friendship between our two countries.

But as His Excellency the President just stated, we are very, very pleased with the continued commitment that the President has to solve the longest, most outstanding issue in the Middle East -- the Israeli-Palestinian process. And the words and discussions that we've had this morning will have, I think, a very great response back in our part of the world when I will go back and report to many of my colleagues the President's commitment to bringing a bright future to Israelis and Palestinians and to the whole area.

And we look forward to continuing to work with you, Mr. President, and many of us in the area, to finally achieve a peace that will set the Middle East in the right direction.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Thank you. A couple of questions apiece. Ben.

Q Mr. President --

Q Mr. President --

Q -- as you have promised -- sorry.

Q Thank you, Mr. President. Are you -- what are your thoughts about the fact that President Abbas has not resumed peace talks? Are you disappointed? And very quickly, sir, you said you're still as optimistic as you were after Annapolis -- what gives you that optimism?

PRESIDENT BUSH: I'm optimistic because I am absolutely convinced that Prime Minister Olmert and President Abbas understand that this is now a key moment in achieving peace. Both leaders are committed to a democracy -- two democracies living side by side in peace. Both leaders understand that there has to be a vision of what that state will look like. Both leaders fully understand that there has to -- you know, have to work out agreements on borders and right of return, and other issues.

Both leaders understand that a vision that respects people and promotes freedom stands in stark contrast to the extremists, who are willing to murder people to stop the advance of democracy and to, you know, dash the ambitions of the Palestinians.

I'm optimistic that they understand that. I understand the difficulties, but I also believe both leaders have -- when it -- ultimately will have the courage necessary to reach an agreement. And my job as the President, and my administration's responsibilities, are to help them understand what is possible, and to keep them moving on a process. And so I'm optimistic; I am.

Q Are you disappointed about the lack of resumption in peace talks?

THE PRESIDENT: This is a process that, you know, always has two steps forward and one step back. We just got to make sure that it's only one step back. Condi is out there in the region -- and sometimes, you know, there's matters going behind the scenes that aren't apparent in the public arena. And so yes, I'm optimistic. And we'll continue to work hard to help achieve the vision.

Step one is to convince the leaders it's necessary, and to help them define a vision so that a state can come into being after conditions are met. But a lot of Palestinians are probably -- are saying, we've heard this kind of rhetoric before -- show us what a state looks like. And I said a state has got to be continuous -- a contiguous territory; it can't look like Swiss cheese. You know, the Palestinians have got to understand that this is an option available for them, and it will stand in stark contrast to the vision of Hamas, which has been nothing more than violence and deprivation.

You want to call on somebody?

Q Mr. President, as you mentioned, you know, as you approach the end of your term in office, you mentioned that you still feel that establishing the Palestinian state is still achievable. What is the exact vision that you have, you know, with this short time left?

THE PRESIDENT: Sure, I appreciate it. First of all, 10 months is a long time. May seem short to you, but it's -- there's plenty of time to get a deal done.

Secondly, I have visited with the leaders, you know, on a one-on-one basis quite frequently, and I understand that it's -- this is a difficult subject. But I also feel very comfortable with the commitment they have made to try to work out subjects that have been difficult for other leaders to work out in the past.

The role of the United States -- we can't impose peace. We can help leaders come to agreement and come to the table and make hard decisions. We can help facilitate the bridging of gaps, if there are gaps. And that's exactly what our diplomacy is in the process of doing.

And by the way, there is -- and one of the reasons why His Majesty is so important in this process, as the other leaders in the Middle East, including my close friend, King Abdallah of Saudi Arabia and President Mubarak of Egypt, is that both these leaders are going to need the support of the Arab world in order to make tough decisions. But first it's up to them. And so I'm optimistic that they can conclude tough negotiations. And we'll try to facilitate that.

Matt.

Q Yes, sir. Every indication out of the OPEC meeting of ministers in Vienna is that they will be holding output steady. What is your reaction to that, sir, in light of your recent visit to the Middle East in which you appealed for an increase in output?

THE PRESIDENT: I think it's a mistake to have your biggest customer's economy slow down, or your biggest customers' economies slowing down as a result of high energy prices. It's not the only result -- our economy is slowing down. I mean, obviously we've got a housing issue and some credit issues. But no question, the high price of gasoline has hurt economic growth here in the United States. And if I were a member of OPEC, I'd be concerned about high energy prices causing people to buy less energy over time.

And the other thing high energy prices of course does, which is stimulate alternative fuels, which we're doing a lot here in America. We're spending a lot of money on biofuels and ethanols and new ways to make ethanol. My advice to OPEC -- of course they haven't listened to it -- but my advice to OPEC is to understand the consequences of high energy prices, because I do, and I understand this is affecting our American citizens. It's making it harder for people to be able to drive, and it's making it tough for families to save.

And so not only is it -- high energy prices having an effect on -- a macro effect on our economy, it's affecting a lot of our families, which troubles me, as well. And by the way, the higher energy prices stay, the more likely it is countries will quickly diversify. And that's part of our strategy.

You want to call on somebody? One more?

Q Thank you, Mr. President. Apart from the Palestinian issue, did you also discuss Lebanon and Iraq, and whether there's a common position between you and Jordan regarding the crisis in Lebanon and the situation in Iraq?

PRESIDENT BUSH: Thank you. We did. His Majesty -- and he, of course can answer, as well -- but His Majesty made it very clear to me that stability in Iraq is important for Jordan. He also pointed out something which I knew, but I wasn't exactly sure how it was affecting his country, that there are roughly three-quarters of a million Iraqi citizens who have moved to Jordan. And we talked about a common strategy about how to make sure that those citizens ended up hopefully going home to Iraq as the security situation improved, but also, while they're in Jordan, not create terrible issues for the government.

And of course we talked about Lebanon. We strongly -- I strongly support Prime Minister Siniora and the March 14th coalition. I strongly condemn Syrian interference in the Lebanese political process. It is -- I am extremely disappointed that the Syrian leader continues to make it hard for the Siniora government to succeed, and I really don't appreciate the fact that they've made it hard for this government to elect a President. We had diplomatic success in the past, when the U.N. Security Council passed a resolution seeing to it that Syria left this young democracy, to be able to grow on its own -- and now here they are once again interfering inside the politics of this country.

And so, yes, we discussed the subject.

KING ABDULLAH: And all I can add to that, on the issue of Lebanon is how we discussed the role of Arab countries, and how we can be effective in supporting the process in Lebanon, so that as quickly as possible a government is formed which will enable them to take (inaudible).

PRESIDENT BUSH: Thank you all very much. We've got to go have lunch with our wives.

END 12:00 P.M. EST
