Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying voice across cultures

Despite the celebrations, though, in the US the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations

It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture

“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that mu generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital”

Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost

“The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958 It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran

Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran “For me, it’s the recontextualization In music, where does the emotion lie? Are we, as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “So I want to continue those dialogue Those are the things I want to foster”

Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate( 这些音乐家“聚集在巴黎和新奥尔良”为的是什么?所以这个的to celebrate自然就是不定式作目的状语 ) the first annual International Jazz Day UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise( 这里的结构是set+一个日期+as + a day to do sth,意思就是“把某一听设定为一个去做什么事儿的日子” ) awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying voice across cultures( 第一段一直在说爵士乐,如果你对爵士乐有兴趣,推荐你去翻一翻村上春树的小册子,叫《爵士群英谱》,据我所知,一共两本 )

Despite( 注意,出现了转折,后面对于爵士乐的态度跟前面不一样了 ) the celebrations, though, in the US the jazz audience continues to shrink( 这个词的本意是“收缩”或者“萎缩”,这里指的是那些爵士乐的老听众,所以可以理解为这个群体的人数在不断“减少” ) and grow older, and the music has failed to( fail to这个词组特别常见,也挺好,可以记一记。没有必要机械地翻译成“做 失败了”,这个太不像中国话,理解为一个否定词就行,具体怎么翻译,看具体的文章而定。补一句,如果你学过《新概念英语》,尤其是第三册,就会发现亚历山大老先生极为爱用这个表达,跟着我学习《新概念》的同学也肯定N多次听我叨念过这个fail to do的用法 ) connect with( connect with的意思是“与 产生联系”,这里的意思当然就是年轻人不怎么喜欢爵士乐了 ) younger generations

It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that As the Kennedy Center’s( 这就是好著名的那个“肯尼迪中心” ) artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for( 这个表达意思是“拓宽 的听众范围”,比如很多女同学都希望widen the audience forTFBOYS。不知道用TFBOYS举例子是不是可以涨粉 ) jazz, make the music more accessible( make sth + adj的意思就是“使得什么怎么样”,这里就是“使得爵士乐更加容易让人接受”。客观地说,爵士乐的曲风的确不是那么大众化,听多了的话会有一种迷迷糊糊的感觉。我算是还挺喜欢爵士乐的,我是不怎么喜欢摇滚乐 ), and preserve its history and culture

“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite( 这个词是“口味”的意思,既可以是吃的那个“口味”,也可以兴趣、爱好方面的“品味” ),” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan“What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore( 什么叫“爵士乐不再是黑色和白色的”?看,后面有一个color,这个话的前提又是在劝年轻人重新喜欢上爵士乐,懂了吧?这里实际上的意思是“爵士乐不再是一种单调的音乐” ) It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital”

Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost“The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958( 看来在一点上美国人民和我们的感受是一样的,就是现在的音乐大不如前了。美国人现在没有新的披头士、MJ,我们没有新的周华健、张学友。当然,我们有伟大的TFBOYS!涨粉涨粉涨粉 ) It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same( 这个表达特别好,可以拿小本本抄下来哈,就是“世界不再按照以前的样子转运了”,也就是世界变了 ),” says Moran

Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music( Fats Waller是一位爵士乐的高手,中文翻译成“胖子沃勒”,20世纪上半叶的一位爵士乐手,大家可以搜来听听 )for a dance party,“Just to kind of( kind of绝对不是“ 的一种”这个意思哈,你看它在动词的前面,意思是“类似于” )put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran “For me, it’s the recontextualization( 请注意,这是一个特别复杂的合成词,即使用词根词缀法去拆,其实也无法准确理解这个词的意思。那么怎么办?如果是在考场上,遇到这种情况,你需要做的事情一定不是胡编一个意思出来,因为这会对你自己形成误导,而是结合前文,弄清楚这个词是一个什么倾向性的词就可以了。比如在这里,你觉得就Moran前面说的那些话而言,这是更接近一个好词还是更接近一个坏词?当然,从表面上看,这个词的意思是“语境重构”,仿佛是没有好坏的 ) In music, where does the emotion lie( 高能预警,下面的这一串话话都特别文艺,快拿出小本本抄一抄。“在音乐的世界里,情感栖身与何处?” ) Are we, as humans, gaining any insight( 这个词的意思是“洞见”,讲得更高级一点,就是“领悟”或者“感悟” ) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record( 在音乐方面提到record这个词,就是指“唱片” ) gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts( get sb into就是“把谁带到什么地儿”,那么在这里,就是指把我们带入了一种“对话”之中。跟谁对话呢?“跟我们自己的情感对话,跟我们自己的思想对话”,快说,是不是特别文艺? ) Sometimes we lose sight( lose sight的字面意思是“失明”,这里肯定不是咯,一听爵士乐就失明还得了。这里的意思是“看不到”,更准确地说就是“忽视”、“意识不到” )that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “so I want to continue those dialogues Those are the things I want to foster( 如果在考场上,你理解为“我准备接着干”,是一点问题都没有的,但还是最好知道一下foster的意思是“促进” )”

——摘自《英汉对照心灵阅读——情感篇

Love is a profound feeling of tender affection for or intense attraction to another People in love are often considered to have "good" interpersonal chemistry[1] Love is described as a deep, ineffable feeling shared in passionate or intimate interpersonal relationships In different contexts, however, the word love has a variety of related but distinct meanings: in addition to romantic love, which is characterized by a mix of emotional and sexual desire, other forms include platonic love, religious love, familial love, and the more casual application of the term to anyone or anything that one considers strongly pleasurable, enjoyable, or desirable, including activities and foods This diverse range of meanings in a single word is commonly contrasted with the plurality of Greek words for Love, reflecting the word's versatility and complexity

Although clearly and consistently defining love is a difficult task, and often a subject of much debate, different aspects of the word can be clarified by determining what isn't "love" As a general expression of positive sentiment (a stronger form of like), love is commonly contrasted with hate (or neutral apathy); as a less sexual and more "pure" form of romantic attachment, love is commonly contrasted with lust; and as an interpersonal relationship with romantic overtones, love is commonly contrasted with friendship, though other definitions of the word love may be applied to close friendships in certain contexts

In ordinary use, love usually refers to interpersonal love, an experience felt by a person for another person Love often involves caring for or identifying with a person or thing, including oneself (cf narcissism)

The concept of love, however, is subject to debate Some deny the existence of love Others call it a recently-invented abstraction, sometimes dating the "invention" to courtly Europe during or after the middle ages—though this is contradicted by the sizable body of ancient love poetry Others maintain that love really exists, and is not an abstraction, but is undefinable, being a quantity which is spiritual or metaphysical in nature Some psychologists maintain that love is the action of lending one's "boundary" or "self-esteem" to another Others attempt to define love by applying the definition to everyday life

Cultural differences make any universal definition of love difficult to establish Expressions of love may include the love for a soul or mind, the love of laws and organizations, love for a body, love for nature, love of food, love of money, love for learning, love of power, love of fame, love for the respect of others, etc Different people place varying degrees of importance on the kinds of love they receive Love is essentially an abstract concept, easier to experience than to explain Because of the complex and abstract nature of love, discourse on love is commonly reduced to a thought-terminating cliché, and there are a number of common proverbs regarding love, from Virgil's "Love conquers all" to The Beatles' "All you need is love" Bertrand Russell describes love as a condition of "absolute value," as opposed to relative value

Though love is considered a positive and desirable aspect of existence, love can cause a great deal of emotional harm Consider Romeo and Juliet, Othello, Great Expectations, and other classical and popular works that enumerate how love can lead to tragedy and emotional pain In human interactions, love becomes a peril when love is not bilateral, known as Unrequited love A further peril for individuals that love, or can love others, is that love is not enduring and that many people have psychological defense mechanisms inhibit their ability to accept or reciprocate love

Human bonding

Main article: Human bonding

People, throughout history, have often considered phenomena such as “love at first sight” or “instant friendships” to be the result of an uncontrollable force of attraction or affinity One of the first to theorize in this direction was the Greek philosopher Empedocles who in the fourth century BC argued for existence of two forces: love (philia) and strife (neikos), which were used to account for the causes of motion in the universe These two forces were said to intermingle with the four elements, ie earth, water, air, and fire, in such a manner that love, so to say, served as the binding power linking the various parts of existence harmoniously together

Later, Plato interpreted Empedocles’ two agents as attraction and repulsion, stating that their operation is conceived in an alternate sequence[2] From these arguments, Plato originated the concept of “likes attract”, eg earth is thus attracted towards earth, water toward water, and fire toward fire In modern terms this is often phrased in terms of “birds of a feather flock together” Later, following developments in electrical theories, such as Coulomb's law, which showed that positive and negative charges attract, analogs in human life were developed such as "opposites attract" Over the last century, researcher on the nature of human mating, such as in evolutionary psychology, agree that pairs unite or attract to each other owing to a combination of opposites attract, eg people with dissimilar immune systems tend to attract, and likes attract, such similarities of personality, character, views, etc[3] In recent years, various human bonding theories have been developed described in terms of attachments, ties, bonds, and or affinities

Religious views

Main article: Love (religious views)

Love in early religions was a mixture of ecstatic devotion and ritualised obligation to idealised natural forces (pagan polytheism) Later religions shifted emphasis towards single abstractly-oriented objects like God, law, church and state (formalised monotheism)

A third view, pantheism, recognises a state or truth distinct from (and often antagonistic to) the idea that there is a difference between the worshipping subject and the worshipped object Love is reality, of which we, moving through time, imperfectly interpret ourselves as an isolated part

The Bible speaks of love as a set of attitudes and actions that are far broader than the concept of love as an emotional attachment Love is seen as a set of behaviours that humankind is encouraged to act out One is encouraged not just to love one's partner, or even one's friends but also to love one's enemies

The Bible describes this type of active love in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8:

Love is patient, love is kind It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres Love never fails

Romantic love is also present in the Bible, particularly the Song of Songs (also known as Song of Solomon, Canticles) Traditionally, this book has been interpreted allegorically as a picture of God's love for Israel and/or the Church When taken naturally, we see a picture of ideal human marriage

"Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealously unyielding as the grave It burns like a blazing fire, like a mighty flame [like the very flame of the LORD] Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned" [8:6-7, NIV]

The passage dodi li v'ani lo ("my beloved is mine and I am my beloved," Song of Songs 2:16) is often engraved on wedding bands [citation needed]

Cultural views

Main article: Love (cultural views)

Although there exist numerous cross-cultural unified similarities as to the nature and definition of love, as in there being a thread of commitment, tenderness, and passion common to all human existence, there are differences For example, in India, with arranged marriages commonplace, it is believed that love is not a necessary ingredient in the initial stages of marriage – it is something that can be created during the marriage; whereas in Western culture, by comparison, love is seen as a necessary prerequisite to marriage

Scientific views

Main article: Love (scientific views)

Throughout history, predominantly, philosophy and religion have speculated the most into the phenomenon of love In the last century, the science of psychology has written a great deal on the subject Recently, however, the sciences of evolutionary psychology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, neuroscience, and biology have begun to take centre stage in discussion as to the nature and function of love

Biological models of sex tend to see it as a mammalian drive, just like hunger or thirst Psychology sees love as more of a social and cultural phenomenon Psychologist Robert Sternberg created his Triangular theory of love and argued that love has three different components: Intimacy, Commitment, and Passion Intimacy is a form where two people can share secrets and various details of their personal lives Intimacy is usually shown in friendships and romantic love affairs Commitment on the other hand is the expectation that the relationship is going to last forever The last and most common form of love is simply sex, or passion Passionate love is shown in infatuation as well as romantic love This led researchers such as Yela to further refine the model by separating Passion into two independents components: Erotic Passion and Romantic Passion

爱是一种发乎人内心的情感,在中文里有著很多解释,由某种事物给予人少许满足(如我爱进食这些食物)至为了爱某些东西而死(如爱国心、对偶结合)。其可以用来形容爱慕的强烈情感、情绪或情绪状态。在日常生活里,其通常指人际间的爱。可能因为其为情感之首位,所以爱是美术里最普遍的主题。爱有时亦会被形容为强迫观念-强迫行为症。

爱最佳的定义可能是主动行动,以真心对待某个体(可以是人、物件或神),使整体得到快乐。简而言之,爱即主动使整体得到快乐。(Thomas Jay Oord)。

爱是与生俱来的,所以可以认为是人性的特质,换言之,爱是作为人必须具备的本质之一。虽然世界各民族间的文化差异使得一个普世的爱的定义难以道明,但并非不可能成立。请参看沙皮亚-沃尔福假设。爱可以包括灵魂或心灵上的爱、对法律与组织的爱、对自己的爱、对食物的爱、对金钱的爱、对学习的爱、对权力的爱、对名誉的爱、对别人的爱,数之不尽。不同人对其所接受的爱有著不同的重视程度。爱本质上为抽象慨念,可以体验但难以言语

吸引与依附

生物学观点普遍认为爱有两种主要意欲,性魅力与依附。成人间的依附被假设为共同协作以孕育下一代,并让其依附其父母。

2006年2月,该期的国家地理杂志的封面文章“爱:化学反应”讨论了爱与化学反应的关系。其作者史雷特解释了部份关於此领域的研究,部份重点为:

化学触发反应可以表示为热烈的爱,长期的依附的爱则要双方互相参与而非只是单人参与。

沉醉在爱河时的血清素效应(serotonin effects)拥有与强迫观念-强迫行为症相似的化学表现(这解释了为何沉醉在爱河的人无法想到其他人)。因此亦有人主张若患有强迫观念-强迫行为症的精神病人服食血清素再回收抑制剂或其他抗抑郁药,其堕入爱河的能力会被阻碍。举例:

"我知道一对夫妇在离婚边缘,那位妻子在服食抗抑郁剂。但当其停止服食后,其能再次享受性高潮,感到其对丈夫的性魅力得到更新,而其夫妇两人亦再次与对方相爱。"(38)

当刚开始时期的热爱消失后,便会转为长期依附的爱,这是因为催产素等化学物的影响。按摩与做爱可以帮助触发催产素的作用。

为了触发吸引力,进行费神的活动如驾驶云霄飞车很有作用。即使只是做了十分钟的工作,亦可使其对他人的吸引人增加,这是因为其心跳加速与其他生理反应加速。

友爱与热爱

传统心理学的观点认为爱是由友爱与热爱组成。热爱是强烈的渴望,通常陪随著生理激起(呼吸急促、心跳加速,如堕入爱河)。友爱是由紧密的行为而引起的爱慕与感觉,但不陪随著生理激起(如君子之交)。

爱情三角理论

主条目:爱情三角理论

在1986年,心理学家史登堡在《心理评论》(Psychological Review (Vol 93, No2, 119-135))里发表了其著名的爱情三角理论,对爱作出几何学的假设。根据爱情三角理论,爱由三部份组成:

亲密 – 包括了紧密感、联络感与约束感。

激情 – 包括了驱使人恋爱、互相吸引与进行性行为的动力。

承诺 – 包括了短期的爱恋与长期的爱的维系。

对其他人的爱的程度主要是看这三个组成部件的绝对强度;而对别人的爱的种类则是看这三个组成部件的相对强度。这三个组成部件可当为三角形,互相影响,使得爱出现很多不同类别。三角形的大小代爱的程度,越大代表越爱对方。而三角形的形状则代表爱的种类,普遍分为激情阶段(三角形倾向右方)、亲密阶段(正常三角形)、承诺阶段(三角形倾向左方)。这三个元素可以构出七种不同的爱的组合:

亲密 激情 承诺

好感 或 友谊 x

迷恋 或 深恋 x

虚爱 x

浪漫之爱 x x

友伴爱 x x

热爱 x x

圆熟之爱 x x x

[编辑] 爱的风格

苏珊·汉迪斯与克莱德·汉迪斯根据李约翰的理论开发了爱的态度指标,称为爱的风格。其将人际关系分为六个基本类别:

情欲之爱 — 基於对方的外表而产生的热爱。

游戏之爱 — 爱就如游戏,充满乐趣,通常不重视承诺而著重征服对方。

友谊之爱 — 缓慢发展的重情义的爱,基於双方互相尊重与友善。

现实之爱 — 倾向选取可以帮助自己的朋友,使双方皆可由此得益。

依附之爱 — 重情绪的爱,不稳定,是由浪漫之爱衰退而成,充满妒忌与争执。

利他之爱 — 完全无私的爱,重视神交。

两位汉迪斯认为男人会渐渐趋向游戏之爱与依附之爱,反之女人则会渐渐趋向友谊之爱与现实之爱。而两者之间的关系若是具有相类的爱可维持得更为长久。

[编辑] 爱的阶段

费雪提议爱有三种主要的状态:情欲、吸引、依附。爱通常会由情欲状态开始,主要著重激情而忽略其他元素。此阶段最基本的推动力是基本性本能、如外表、气味与其他相似的因素是选取伙伴的主要因素。然而随著时间的流逝,其他元素可能会增多而激情则减少,但这却是每个人皆不同。在吸引阶段,人们会将注意力集中在其对对方的影响上,而此时忠诚最为重要。

与此相似,当一个人长时间被爱,其将会与其伙伴发展出依附的关系。根据现代科学对爱的解释,由吸引至依附转移需要三十个月时间。其后激情消失,爱会由热爱转向友爱,或由浪漫之爱转向好感。

[编辑] 文化观点

[编辑] 中华文化

现代汉语与中华文化里,少数的词汇被用作描绘爱的慨念∶

爱这个字可用作动词如我爱你或名词,如爱情。

恋这个字并不会作单词用,通常会与其他字组合,如谈恋爱、恋人或同性恋。

情这个字通常解作感觉或情绪,通常指代为爱,而其可与其他字组合为相爱的意思,如爱情、情人。

在儒家学说里,恋是纯爱之意。恋为所有人追求的东西,为道德生活的反映。而中国的哲学家墨子则发展出与儒家的恋慨念相对的爱的慨念。爱在墨家学说里为兼爱之意,即爱无等差,对众生皆持对等的爱。浪费与攻伐对爱则不利。虽然墨子的想法亦有一定影响力,但儒家的恋仍是大部份中国人对爱的慨念。

感情指两人之间的感觉。两人会以建立良好感情来表达对对方的爱,如互相帮助。而且可以对万物存有感情,不只限於人。

缘份是指两人间命运的关连。俗语说∶有缘千里能相聚,无缘见面不相识。

早恋是在当代中国常用的概念,指的是青年 、童年时发生的“爱情”或者对某异性人“感兴趣” 或“痴情”。早恋包括青年“男女朋友”以及儿童的早恋感觉(跟英文的“crush”这概念有一点关系)。这概念表示当代中国文化 、社会上的普通观点,就是未成年人由于学习的压力,不应该谈恋爱,否则对他们前途和出息可以有坏处。很重要一种原因是当代中国教育制度的极大竞争性。报纸和别的媒体也报导早恋这现象对学生的危险与家长的担心。

[编辑] 大和文化

在日本佛教里,爱意味著关怀、热情与基本渴望。其可发展为自私或无私与教化两方面。

甘え,在日语里指撒娇,是日本人抚养子女的文化。日本母亲通常会紧抱与纵容其子女,其子女则会通由依赖与孝顺来回报其母亲。部份社会学家(最著名的为土居健郎)认为日本人在长大后的社交手法很大程度建基於童年时对母亲撒娇的手法。

在日语语言学里,最常见与爱相关的两个字为爱与恋。通常非浪漫之爱均以前者表示,而浪漫之爱则以后者表示。父母之爱则称为亲の爱,而与人相恋则称为恋する。当然亦有特例,爱人此词解为相爱之人并暗示为非法的关系,通常表示为婚外情,反之恋人则有男朋友、女朋友或伴侣的含意。

在每天的交谈里,爱与恋却较少用到,反之以爱している或恋している来表示我爱你的人较多,例如日本人会说好きです来表示我喜欢你 -- 好き解为喜好,亦可以用作表示对食物、音乐或其他事件的爱好,就如寿司が好きです解为喜欢寿司,其暗示爱,但没有淡化其情感。

Diligere解为尊重,较少在浪漫之爱里使用。这个字可以通常用以形容两个男性之间的友谊。其对应的名词为diligentia,然而其有著努力、细心之意,与其动词形态只有少量意义重叠。

Observare为'diligere'的同义字,其对应的名词'observantia'亦解为尊重或影响。

Caritas在拉丁文圣经里解为慈爱,但在古典罗马非基督教文学里却无此解。因为其由希腊文字演变而得,所以并没有对应的动词。

[编辑] 印尼与马来亚文化

在印尼与马来西亚的语言里,爱可以有数种定义∶

Cinta代表性欲。

Jatuh cinta指刚堕入爱河。

Sayang指无条件去爱,但亦指损失某些东西产生的遗憾。

  只有生活中的弱者才会这样祈祷:“把我这满是烦恼的爱情熄灭了吧!”。下面是我带来的讨论金钱与爱情的英语 文章 ,欢迎阅读!

 The internet is brimming with money tips for newlyweds — open a joint account, talk aboutyour money values, budget for date night While sound advice, these articles ignore a simpletruth: your money relationship doesn’t begin when you walk down the aisle It starts on yourvery first date

 互联网为新婚夫妇提供了许多理财技巧——开设联名账户,沟通理财价值观,为约会之夜制定预算。这些都是有益的忠告,不过这些文章忽略了一条简单的真理:你和配偶之间的金钱关系并非始于步入婚姻殿堂之时,而是从第一次约会就开始了。

 Rather than discussing finances in romantic relationships, we tend to quickly and quietly adaptto our beliefs about how the other person wants to deal with the issue So if Mr Wonderfulpays on dates one and two, his dinner partner may assume he is happy to pay on datesthree, four and 50 But that often leads to frustration from at least one party Maybe, likemost millennials, Mr Wonderful can’t really afford to treat every time Perhaps his date feelsguilty for not contributing financially

 与其在恋爱中谈钱,我们更倾向于迅速地悄悄去适应另一半在这件事情上的看法。因此,如果说好人君(MrWonderful)头一两次约会都主动掏钱,那他的约会对象可能就会觉得第三回、第四回甚至是第50回也都该由他买单。但这通常会至少让其中一方感到沮丧失落。或许,像大多数千禧一代,好人君实际上无法每次都请客。也许他的约会对象会因为在财务上没有做出贡献而感到内疚。

 You are probably thinking, ‘just say something’ But chances are you wouldn’t

 你可能会想,“ 说说 清楚吧。”不过你多半开不了口。

 “We are all ‘funny’ about money, no matter how much or how little money we have, ” writes DrKate Levinson in her book Emotional Currency If, as the oft quoted statistic says, 70% ofdivorces are due to money woes, what financial changes can couples make early on to fortifytheir long term odds

 凯特·莱文森(Kate Levinson)博士在《情感货币》(Emotional Currency)一书中写道,“我们对待金钱的态度都很“有趣”,无论是有钱还是没钱人。”据经常引用的统计数字表明,70%的人离婚是因为经济问题,那么,夫妻可以提前在财务方面做出哪些改变,来巩固长期的婚姻关系

 Scott Rick, a marketing professor at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business,studies the links between money, attraction and marital happiness In a 2011 paper, “ Fatal(Fiscal) Attraction: Spendthrifts and Tightwads in Marriage, ” Rick and his co-authors revealthat tightwads (people who tend to spend less than they would like to) often marryspendthrifts (people who spend more than they would like to)

 密歇根大学罗斯商学院(University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business) 市场营销 学教授斯科特·里克(Scott Rick)专注于研究金钱、吸引力和婚姻幸福间的联系。在2011年的论文《致命(财务)吸引力:婚姻中的败家子和吝啬鬼》(Fatal (Fiscal) Attraction: Spendthrifts and Tightwads in Marriage)中,里克与合作者们揭示了吝啬鬼(那些花钱节俭的人)通常会和败家子(那些花钱大手大脚的人)结婚的真相。

 “Generally we marry ourselves We go out and find someone who mirrors the things we likeabout ourselves, ” says Rick, who began looking at spendthrifts and tightwads in relationshipswhen he married a tightwad “But a tightwad doesn’t like being a tightwad A spendthrift doesnot like being a spendthrift It turns out they don’t want a second one of themselves in thehome” Rick explains that the differences initially lead to attraction but eventually becomesless fun when you need to make decisions of economic consequence

 自打娶了个小气老婆之后,里克就开始研究情侣关系中的败家子和吝啬鬼,他表示,“通常来说,我们会和同类人结婚。我们出去约会,寻找那些和我们兴趣相投的人。但是极其抠门的人不喜欢成为吝啬鬼。挥霍无度的人也不喜欢成为败家子。事实证明,他们都不喜欢在家里看到第二个自己。”里克解释说,最初的性格差异会导致爱情吸引,但是当需要做出有一定经济影响的决定时,这就没那么好玩了。

 Around this time last year, a much talked about New York Times article reveled a trend ofyoung adults asking for their love interest’s credit score to determine if he or she is worthpursuing In one anecdote a 31 year old flight attendant was quickly disenchanted when asuitor asked about her credit score on their very first date

 去年大约这个时候,《纽约时报》(New York Times)刊出的一篇文章引发了热烈的讨论,文章报道美国年轻人流行打听自己心仪对象的信用评分,以衡量对方是否值得追求。有这样一段轶事,当追求者在双方第一次约会中问及她的信用评分时,一位31岁的空姐突然立刻不再抱幻想。

 Like our dating lives, a person’s relationship to money cannot be boiled down to a singlestatistic Maybe wait a few dates to bring up nitty gritty details like credit scores and 401kbalances Instead Levinson says you should see if the relationship “has legs” and keep an eyeout for “patterns” Does one partner always pay Are you are being overly generous, whileyour partner is being tightfisted How does that make you feel

 跟约会那样,人与金钱的关系不能简单归结为一个数字。也许等约会过几次,再打听彼此的信用评分以及401K退休金户头余额等这些具体细节吧。莱文森表示,重点要看这段恋爱关系是否“能长久”,密切注意“交往模式”。是否总是一方在付钱你是否过于慷慨,而约会对象特别抠门这让你有什么感觉

 If you are unhappy with your money exchanges, Levinson recommends approaching the topicin the same way you might the dirty socks your girlfriend leaves around ‘You always leave yoursocks on the floor and that’s irritating to me Why don’t you put them in the hamper’ is notso different from saying, ‘You never let me pay for dinner and that’s irritating to me What isthat about for you’ Don’t criticize, but instead try to come to a mutual understanding of whyyou each behave the way you do

 如果你对你们的金钱往来不满意,莱文森建议,解决这个问题可以仿效处理女朋友乱扔脏袜子的做法。“你总是把袜子扔在地板上,这让我很恼火。为什么不把袜子放在洗衣篮里”其实这样说没有多大不同:“你总是不让我请你吃晚餐,这让我很恼火。这是怎么回事”不要批评对方,而是尝试相互理解,为什么你们各自会有这种行为。

 Married financial planners Scott and Bethany Palmer describe money as a laboratory, byobserving your love-interest’s spending habits you can get to know him or her If you, forexample, notice that the girl you have gone out with a few times is careful with her pennies youcan compliment her self control If you notice she throws spending caution to the wind youcan ask about her non-financial adventures “When you are dating you really have theopportunity to see what you are about to get into, ” says Scott

 婚内理财规划师斯科特·帕尔默(Scott Palmer)和贝瑟尼·帕尔默(Bethany Palmer)把金钱形容为一座实验室,通过观察心仪对象的消费习惯,可以了解对方的为人。比如说,如果你注意到,和你约会过几次的女友花钱很仔细,你可以称赞她的自我控制力。如果你发现她花钱大手大脚,也可以询问她在财务方面以外的冒险经历。斯科特说,“约会的时候,实际上是有机会看清楚对方是什么样的人的。”

 There are, however, also warnings signs to look for You may want to rethink a relationship ifsomeone is unwilling to discuss money, lies about their finances or doesn’t pay you backPerhaps your date said he left a tip for that friendly waitress on the table, but you find no cashwhen you run back to get your sunglasses Don’t let red flags go “Once we are in love withsomebody, ” Levinson notes, “we are vulnerable to taking care of someone in ways that arenot healthy”

 当然也有些信号要警惕。如果对方不愿讨论金钱,对财务状况撒谎,只有索取没有付出,那么你可能就要重新考虑与之的关系。也许你的约会对象会说,他有把小费放在桌子上留给亲切友好的女服务生,但当你回去找落下的太阳眼镜时,却没有看到。不要放过这样的危险信号。莱文森指出,“一旦爱上某个人,我们就很容易用一些不健康的方式去纵容对方。”

 A psychotherapist, Levinson is currently working with a couple that has been dating for fouryears and wants to buy a house Both partners have steady incomes, but one has additionalfamily money Generous with small expenses, the partner with extra funds wants to split thehome 50/50 even if it means buying a lesser property The other partner cannot understandwhy his mate isn’t willing to pay more and take a larger share of the equity so they can live ina home they love “The work, ” says Levinson, “is really about figuring out why she needs to beso boundaried here and having her partner understand why” Being in love (like or lust)doesn’t preclude the realities of financial inequality and assumptions By the same token,knowing the contents of someone’s bank account doesn’t mean you understand his or herrelationship to it

 作为一名心理治疗师,莱文森目前正为一对情侣提供咨询,他们交往了四年并想购买一栋房产。双方都有稳定收入,其中一方拥有额外的家庭财产。手头更宽裕的女方虽然在小额支出上很大方,但却希望平摊购房费用,即便这意味着他们只能买小一点的房子也在所不惜。男方不能理解为什么女友不愿意多掏点钱,多负担一点购房费用,这样他们就能住上一栋自己喜欢的房子。莱文森说,“咨询实际上是为了搞清楚,为什么她需要在买房问题上划清界限,并让男友理解其中的原因。”坠入爱河(喜欢或欲望)不能排除财务不对等的现实和假设。出于同样的原因,知道某人银行账户有多少钱,并不意味着你就理解对方的金钱观念。

1Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrated in much of North America, generally observed as an expression of gratitude, usually to God The most common view of its origin is that it was to give thanks to God for the bounty of the autumn harvest In the United States, the holiday is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November In Canada, where the harvest generally ends earlier in the year, the holiday is celebrated on the second Monday in October, which is observed as Columbus Day or protested as Indigenous Peoples Day in the United States

Thanksgiving is traditionally celebrated with a feast shared among friends and family In the United States, it is an important family holiday, and people often travel across the country to be with family members for the holiday The Thanksgiving holiday is generally a "four-day" weekend in the United States, in which Americans are given the relevant Thursday and Friday off Thanksgiving is almost entirely celebrated at home, unlike the Fourth of July or Christmas, which are associated with a variety of shared public experiences (fireworks, caroling, etc)

感恩节的由来要一直追溯到美国历史的发端。1620年,著名的“五月花”号船满载不堪忍受英国国内宗教迫害的清教徒102人到达美洲。1620年和1621年之交的冬天,他们遇到了难以想象的困难,处在饥寒交迫之中,冬天过去时,活下来的移民只有50来人。这时,心地善良的印第安人给移民送来了生活必需品,还特地派人教他们怎样狩猎、捕鱼和种植玉米、南瓜。在印第安人的帮助下,移民们终于获得了丰收,在欢庆丰收的日子,按照宗教传统习俗,移民规定了感谢上帝的日子,并决定为感谢印第安人的真诚帮助,邀请他们一同庆祝节日。

在第一个感恩节的这一天,印第安人和移民欢聚一堂,他们在黎明时鸣放礼炮,列队走进一间用作教堂的屋子,虔诚地向上帝表达谢意,然后点起篝火举行盛大宴会。第二天和第三天又举行了摔交、赛跑、唱歌、跳舞等活动。第一个感恩节非常成功。其中许多庆祝方式流传了300多年,一直保留到今天。

初时感恩节没有固定日期,由各州临时决定,直到美国独立后,感恩节才成为全国性的节日。 1863年,美国总统林肯正式宣布感恩节为国定假日。届时,家家团聚,举国同庆,其盛大、热烈的情形,不亚于中国人过春节。

2你说的是感恩,最好用 gratitude这个词

Gratitude is an Open Door: Three Stories About Wealth and Poverty

By Kate Judd

Let me tell you a story I had two good friends who had never met each other They were close in age They were each divorced; they came from the same ethnic background One had one teenager, the other had three They shared many interests I thought they would love each other

At a party at my home, I introduced my friends to each other “Annette, this is Barbara; Barbara, Annette You have so much in common”

Annette was a talkative type Right away, she began to tell Barbara about her life “It’s so tough being divorced, isn’t it” Annette said “I mean, money is so tight My new house cost two hundred and seventy thousand dollars I had to get financial help from my father It’s not that Daddy doesn’t have it— he just endowed a chair at a major university But I hate to ask Of course, I do have the alimony from Bill, my ex; but I don’t feel that I should rely on that I’m putting it away for my retirement—that’s what my accountant says I should do And the house that Bill and I built just won’t sell I don’t know why We spent nine hundred thousand dollars on that house, it’s absolutely perfect

“It doesn’t matter so much to Bill if the house doesn’t sell He’s the vice president of a big bank in the city But I’m really struggling I mean, I don’t make much I’m just a music teacher So, anyway, what I’ve decided to do is build an addition onto my new house: a little apartment I don’t know where I’m gong to come up with the money It’s going to cost sixty thousand But, you know, it’s a tremendous investment in the long run It adds to the value of the house And I’m going to rent it out, so then I’ll have the rent every month to add to my income It’s worth it to scrape a little while I’m having it built”

My friend Barbara sat silent She had a smile fixed firmly on her face I had never heard Barbara say anything unkind about anyone—ever She never said a word against Annette, either; but after the party, she told me she would prefer not to see Annette again

You see, I had forgotten one thing: while Annette, who was worth several hundred thousand dollars, worried about whether she had enough to survive, Barbara was supporting herself and her teenage child on ten thousand dollars a year, which she earned by mopping floors and scrubbing toilets And she never complained

Before this, what had I thought about wealth About poverty I had grown up in comfort, never lacking for any material thing—indeed, indulged in anything money could buy I had known that there was a difference between me and most of the other children at the tiny rural school where I had gone as a child But I had not realized that the difference had to do with money Like many a young member of the upper classes, I did not know what I was

Sitting with Annette and Barbara, I knew I thought, “Let me never take what I have for granted Let me never complain about being poor, when I am really rich”

If you had asked Barbara if she was poor, she would probably have denied it She would have said, “I have a child who loves me We have a house to live in I have my health, so that I can work for my living Sure, we have to get food from the Community Pantry sometimes, but we always have enough to eat I’m even able to scrape together enough to go to school, so that some day I’ll be qualified for a better job which still allows me to take care of my emotionally troubled child I have a family who cares about me I’m thankful to have so much”

Maybe I should take Barbara for an example Maybe I should be grateful for what I have—however much or little it is

Let me tell you another story: I have a middle aged relative who lives alone in a large house Mentally somewhat disabled, she does not work, but is supported by a large trust fund set up by her late parents Though her life style is not opulent by North American standards, she is always beautifully dressed, well fed, and can afford to hire people to do any job she cannot, or does not wish to do herself

One day my relative went to the supermarket (how much we take for granted)! Another friend of mine once hosted a professor from Russia The professor was overwhelmed and enchanted by the small local supermarket She exclaimed, “In America, your markets are like museums!” My relative, her eyes glazed and her feet sore after a long trip through the abundantly stocked aisles, decided to go to the flower case and pick out a refreshing bouquet for herself In front of the buckets overflowing with big, richly colored roses stood an old Asian woman, who was silent as my relative selected her flowers “So cheap” my relative thought “Only a dollar a stem!” She chose a large bunch

The other woman still stood there “It’s hard to pick, isn’t it” my relative said “Oh, I cannot buy any,” said the old woman “Too expensive I only like to come and look They are so beautiful”

So this woman was grateful for the free beauty of flowers in a supermarket/museum Was that all Did she feel her poverty, in not being able to afford a one dollar rose There are those who would argue that this woman was wealthier than my friend Annette, who has a great deal of money but feels always impoverished In this case, my relative should not have felt any guilt or worry, but should have taken her flowers home and enjoyed them, secure in the notion that we must each simply be thankful for what we have, no matter how we came to have it Or should my relative have offered to buy some flowers for the old woman That is another popular solution: those who have more should make private donations to those who have less Perhaps my relative should have put her own flowers back in the case, and donated her money to some worthy organization—one which fights poverty

What am I to learn from all this Surely it is good to be grateful for what we have Like my friend Barbara, I am grateful in this minute for so much: the beautiful Vermont landscape outside my window, the fruits of my abundant garden, the house in which I live, my beloved husband, my job, my health, my friends And yet — it seems to me that as long as others do not have what I have, my gratitude is not enough If others lack for beauty to see, good and wholesome food to eat, a home (or even a roof over their heads), love and friendship, work that rewards them, health and the care to maintain it, then my gratitude is just a beginning A door to the next step I can open that door of gratitude, and walk forward, doing what I can to help others achieve what I have Or I can close the door Then gratitude becomes complacency, and I am trapped

Let me stop philosophizing for a moment, and tell you one more story: Once, I saved up my money all year long so that I could go to a workshop The workshop took place at an institution that specialized in “self actualization,” “spiritual exploration,” “natural healing” and so forth At this institution there were perhaps a few hundred people who had come to take workshops in pursuit of these vague but laudable goals Among them I saw perhaps ten who were not white Although it was more difficult to tell, I would guess that there were equally few who were not economically quite well-off Although I come from “the whitest state in the union” I felt uncomfortable with this lack of ethnic and class diversity Still, I quite enjoyed the workshop I was attending

One night I was standing in the dinner line next to the person who was presenting the workshop, a woman of extraordinary power and charisma She stretched her arms akimbo and proclaimed in a loud voice, “Ah! It’s good to be alive!”

Something must have registered on my face Perhaps I drew slightly away from her I know that for the rest of the workshop, she looked faintly displeased with me But you see, I was thinking, For you it is good to be alive For me it is good to be alive But what about the homeless person who is sleeping tonight in a public park What about the person who has just discovered they have cancer, and have no health insurance to cover treatment What about the residents of other, less wealthy countries—the man who lives in a tin shed in Mexico, the woman who begs in the streets of Bombay What about the children who are starving, and the mothers who cannot feed them Just what do you mean, “it’s good to be alive!”

I do not intend to be sanctimonious I am a privileged, middle class person, who has had a very fortunate life What I wish for is that everyone could have what I do This is naive, I suppose Idealistic, certainly And what, after all, do I propose to do about it Where is my plan, my solution to the poverty and hunger that plague the majority of the world’s population

I am not arrogant enough to propose a solution Others smarter, wiser, more politically shrewd, more religiously dogmatic, have proposed solutions since the beginning of time, it seems I only know I cannot wish idly for others to have a better life I must try to work for it in whatever ways I can Otherwise, my gratitude becomes meaningless I will have closed the door, and left the better part of humanity beyond it, sitting alone, gloating over my wealth like a miser, cut off from the love, learning and pain that are as essential to living as the material comforts I rejoice in, trapped in complacency Then, I am very poor indeed

Motivational Story

Motivational Story #9

LIVE WITH AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE by Glen Hopkins

Imagine for a moment one of those nights when you just can't fall asleep and you have to get up early the next morning for a very important meeting of which you are the keynote speaker Your alarm clock goes off early in the morning waking you from what little sleep you had You stumble out of bed, have a quick shower, grab a coffee and some toast, and off you go to fight the traffic on the way to work

Does that sound like the start of a terrible day Most would answer 'yes' Few people however, would answer, 'no' These are the people, who are in my opinion blessed with a gift A gift that determines how they view their life These people live with 'an attitude of gratitude' For them, the situation described could be worse Much worse For example, think of the man who doesn't have a bed, let alone a roof to over his head When he is awoken from what little sleep he is able to get, it is by the rain falling on his cold body He too stumbles to his feet and begins his journey to work in his bare feet His work is in the field of survival He searches though garbage cans for scraps of half-rotten food to eat and odd bits of clothes to keep him warm

The purpose of this example is to illustrate that we all have so much to be grateful for Even in times when it seems that nothing could be worse, there is always a reason to be grateful And when you feel a sense of gratitude, you feel a sense of happiness and content My challenge to you today is to learn to look for the good in every situation and live with 'an attitude of gratitude'

I assure you, if you were the fellow searching for food in garbage cans you too could find things to be grateful for You just have to look hard enough and 'open your eyes' to what is around you You have to focus on what's good in your life, not what's bad

"I once was distraught because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet" - Unknown

Life works in mysterious ways Time and time again there have been stories of people who are in a dire strait yet they are found helping others who are experiencing greater turmoil This is because once you have helped someone in greater need than yourself, you always feel better You feel better because you have helped another human being, and this forces you to change your mindset from focusing on your problems to focusing on their solutions

Always focus on the solution, not the problem and live with an attitude of gratitude! Mother Teresa was a primary example of this phenomenon Her entire life revolved around helping others in need As a result she experienced a great deal of love and self-satisfaction in her life

I challenge you now to take a moment to think of five things in your life that you are grateful for today For example, your friends, your family, your job, your sense of smell, touch, sight, and sound The list can go on and on Imagine what your life would be like without these things Write them down on a piece of paper and really think about the things you are grateful for You will be amazed at how great you will feel!
