　　英語晨讀美文：富爸爸窮爸爸

　　Most parents would probably be extremely grateful to be shown an easy way to inSffll into their children an appreciation of the value of money and a better understanding of how to make it,According to somecrities, they can find the answer by reading a new bestselling book by financial wizard Robert T. Kiyosaki.

　　如果有個簡單的方法，該方法能幫助家長給孩子灌輸重視錢的價值，以及更好地了解掙錢的辦法，相信多數家長都會十分感激的。根據評論家的觀點，父母可以在一本由財經奇才羅伯特.清崎所著的暢銷書中找到答案。

　　Rich Dad, Poor Dad has the title of a novel rather than a how-to treatise, and indeed, much of the book is written in story form. Its central theme is summed up by the subtitle "What the Rich Teach Their Kids about Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not." The author also strongly disparages the tendency ofmost people to work for money rather than " letting money work for them".

　　《富爸爸，窮爸爸》有點像小說的書名，而不像是一部入門的專著。的確，書的大部分內容是以故事的形式寫成。書的副標題-《富人教給孩子有關金錢的觀念和窮人與中產階級所教的相左)》，歸納了該書的主題。作者也強烈蔑視大多數人為錢工作而不是“讓錢為人工作”的傾向。

　　Kiyosaki illustrates his point in the first part ofthe book by narrating a story based on his childhood experiences, The title refers to the author's own highly educated father, the " poor dad" who always had to work hard to meet the family's and the "rich dad", a neighbor who had dropped out of high school but those financial acumen turned him Into a multhnillionaire. whose financial acumen turned him.

　　清崎在書的第一部分根據自己童年的經歷來講述故事并以此闡述他的觀點.書名中的“窮爸爸竹是指他受過高等教育的父親，他為了滿足家庭的需求而努力工作，“富爸爸”則是指一位高中就輟學的鄰居，但其敏銳的理財眼光卻使他成為一個大富豪。

　　The book has generated its share of negativefeedback. For one thing,some reviewers have lashed out against its anti-education slant. All a free, though, that Kiyosaki is sound on the need to shake off a fearful,conservative mindset in order to make it big financially.

　　本書也得到一些負面的反饋。其中一些圖書評論家抨擊了該書的反教育傾向。不過，大家都認為清崎的這一主張是合理的，即要賺大錢就必須先擺脫恐懼,保守的心態(tài)。

　　英語晨讀美文：現行考試與工作脫節(jié)

　　It's tempting to conclude that the exam system is wrong to cause such pain for so little gain. It is not as if we remember ffie facts that we stuffed into our heads at the very last minute, On the evening of my finals, I could probably have told you about Mttgenstein's view on the indeterminacy oftranslation but now all I can recaU is the picture that was a duck one minute and a rabbit the next.

　　我們很容易得出這樣一個結論：考試制度造成如此大的痛苦，但換來的收獲如此之少，證明這種制度存在問題。我們根本記不住在最后一分鐘硬塞進腦子里的那些事實。在期末考試前一天晚上，我或許還能夠告訴你維特根斯坦(Wittgenstein)有關翻譯不準確性的看法，但現在，我只記得起那幅上一分鐘還是鴨子，卞一分鐘卻變成兔子的圖片。

　　Yet that isn't why it's all a waste. Even though I've forgotten what I leamt, I am still proud to have once known it. This seems a less shameful state ofignorance than never having Imown it at all.

　　不過，這并不是考試制度一無是處的原因所在。盡管我曾學過的東西都忘記了'但我還是以曾經知道為榮。這種無知狀態(tài)似乎不那么可恥。

　　The real problem with the exam system is that it teaches lessonsabout work itselfthat you need to unleam pretty smartly ifyou want to get ahead in business.

　　考試制度的真正問題在于，它教授了一些關于工作本身的知識，如果你想在商界中獲得成功，你就必須很快忘卻這些東西。

　　First, it teaches you that there is a fairly straightforward relationship between effort and result. In exams, if you work ver3r, very hard in the evenings you are going to do an awful lot better than if you spend your evenings in the pub. In most once life, this is not true. The relationship between effort and reward is much more complicated.

　　首先，它灌輸給你一個概念，即付出與成績是完全對等的。就考試而言，如果你每天晚上都非常、非常認真地復習，而不是泡在酒吧里，那么你的成績就會好很多。但在大多數辦公室生活中，情況并非如此。付出與回報之間的關系要復雜得多。

　　Second in an exam there is nowhere to hide. If you fail you may try to pin the blame on your teachers or the examiner, but in your heart you know there is no one else to blame but yourself. You either weren't bright enough, or you didn't work hard enough.

　　其次，在考試中，你無處可躲。如果你沒通過，你可能會試圖怪罪于你的老師或考官，但內心深處，你知道這件事不怪任何人，只能怪你自己。你不是不夠聰明，就是不夠努力。

　　One of the beauties of office work is that there is no shortage of candidates to blame for one's failures. Management, the market, the culture, one's eolleagues, the competitors, an IT failure; the options arc endless. You can screw something up royally and get away with it indefinitely. Indeed, so long as you are quite seruor you can bring the entire banlang system down and still get a big bonus.

　　工作的一個好處在于，你永遠可以將你的失敗歸咎于其他因素：管理、市場、文化、你的同事、競爭對手、一個IT故障;選項無窮無盡。 即使你把事情弄得一團糟， 也能永遠避開懲罰。 實際上，只要你職位夠高，就算你把整個 銀行系統(tǒng)都搞垮，還 是可以收到巨額獎金.
