中石油谚语篇一

中石油职称考试《通用英语》2013版学习笔记

1. The Value of Time 时间的价值

（convertible adj. 可改变的；可变换的）。让那些对浪费时间满不在乎的人记住这一点(think nothing of 把...视为平常)。让他们记住，浪费一小时等于(be equivalent to)损失一张钞票，而利用一小时就等于(be tantamount to)得到若干金银。这样，他们想浪费时间时或许会三思(think twice)而后行。

2.Moreover, our lifeis therefore suicide. We are shocked when we death, and we expense . But we are too often 后跟名词或名词性短语) loss of an hour or of a day, forgetting that our life is of the days and of the hours . . Let us , and waste of time will appear to us2、再说，我们的生命无非就是(be nothing more than)我们活在人世的时间。因此，浪费时间也就是一种自杀（a form of 一种...的形式）。我们想到死，便惊恐不已，因而不惜一切努力、麻烦和费用来保全（preserve）我们的生命（spare no pains 不遗余力，全力以赴）。可是，我们对于损失一个小时或者一天的时间却往往漠不关心(indifferent adj.)，忘记了我们的生命原本就是我们生活的每一天、每一小时的总和。因此，浪费一天或一小时也就是丧失（forfeited是forfeit的过去分词，此处是做定语）一天或一小时

1."Time" says the proverb "is money". This means that every

moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets. If our time is usefully employed, it will either produce some useful and important which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities when the proper opportunity comes. There can thus be that time is convertible into money. Let those 定语从句） remember this; let them remember that that so much silver or gold; and then they will probably of their time.

1、谚语(proverb)说：“时间就是金钱。(Time is money)”这句话的意思是，一时片刻只要用得有效(well-spent adj. 使用得当的；充分利用了的)， 都会让我们的口袋增添一些钱。如果（if）我们的时间使用得当，就能生产出有用的、重要的产品(piece of work 工件，即产品)，(which引导的定语从句)（这些产品)在市场上卖得(fetch)一定的价钱；就能充实（add to）经验，增长才干（capacities），等到适当的时机(opportunity)来临时，我们就能挣得金钱(enable us to earn money)。因此，毫无疑问的是：时间可以转化为金钱

的生命。让我们记住(bear in mind)这一点，这样就会把浪费时间看作（in the light of）一种罪过，跟自杀一样应该受到惩罚(culpable adj. 应受处罚的)。

3.There is a third consideration which will also tend to warn us against loss of time. Our life is measuring some sixty or seventy years in all, but nearly one half of this has to be spent in sleep; some years have to be spent over our meals; some over dressing and undressing; some in making and ; some in merry-making, either on our own account or others; some in celebrating religious and social festivities; some in watching over . Now if all these years were to be deducted from the we shall find about fifteen or twenty years at our disposal for active work.(虚拟语气句型) Whoever remembers this can never willingly waste a single moment of his life. "It is astonishing" says Lord Chesterfield, "that anyone can one single moment of snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it!"

3、还有第三层考虑（consideration），也会提醒我们别浪费时间(warn against 警告...不要)。人生短暂(a brief span)，总共(in

all)不过六七十年，可是将近一半时间必须(has to)用于睡眠；吃饭时间加起来也得花去一些年; 穿衣脱衣又是一些年；水陆、陆路旅行(journeys旅行；voyages 长途旅行)又是一些年；再加上一些年娱乐（merry-make vi. 尽情欢乐）时间 (不论是为自己还是为别人）（for the sake of 为了）；一些年庆祝宗教节日和社会节日（festivity-festivities）；还有一些年在病床（sick-bed）边照看(watch over)至亲至爱。现在如果从我们的寿命中扣除(deduct from)所有这些岁月(the term)，我们将会发现，能受我们支配的有效的工作时间大约仅十五或二十年而己(disposal n.支配；处理)。谁能记住这一点，谁就不会心甘情愿地（willingly）浪费他生命的每一刻时间。查斯特菲尔德勋爵说过，“对于分配给(allot to)我们这一生的时间，若有人游手好闲(idleness n.)，即使浪费(squander away)片刻，也是令人吃惊的（astonishing adj.）。要认识到时间的真正价值，要争分夺秒(snatch, seize)，充分利用有限的时间。”

4.All time is precious; but is more precious than for those are the periods when alone we can acquire knowledge and develop our faculties and capacities. If we allow these morning hours of life to unutilized, we shall never be able to recoup the loss. As we grow older, our power of acquisition gets blunted,

, so the precious hours of childhood and youth, if properly used, will yield us incalculable advantages. "Every moment you lose" says Lord Chesterfield "is so much as 语从句) is so much time wisely laid out at prodigious interest."

4、所有的时间都是宝贵的(precious)，而我们童年和青年时期的光阴比一生中的其他阶段都更为宝贵，因为(for)只有在这两个阶段我们才能获取(acquire)知识、增长才干(faculty-faculties)和发展各种才能(capacity-capacities)。如果我们让这些生命的早晨时光悄悄溜走(slip away)，未得到利用（unutilized），这损失将永远也无法弥补(recoup）。等我们长大了，获得知识（acquisition n.）的能力就变得迟钝了(blunt vt. 使迟钝adj.)，因此在童年和青年时期未能获得的知识和技能将永远不能获得了。正像（just as）储蓄金钱，产生利息（interest），到时候（in time）会翻两三倍（doubles and trebles itself）一样，童年和青年时期的宝贵时光，如果使用得当，必将带来（yield）不可估量的收益(incaluclable advantages)。查斯特菲尔德勋爵还说过，“丧失的每一时刻就等于丧失了与之相当的名和利。从另一方面看，你现在有效利用的每一时刻正是明智地以这时间作为投资，将来定会获取巨额的（prodigious adj.）利息。”

5.A proper employment of time is of great benefit to us the rust

of the mind and mostly that you do something ill or wrong. The mind of the idler . As Watts has said:

In works of labor or of skill Let me be busy too;

For Satan finds some mischief still For idle hands to do.

5、从道德的(moral adj.)观点来看，恰当地利用时间对我们也有很大的好处(benefit)。懒惰（idleness）据说是（said to be）心灵上的锈迹，懒人的头脑据说是撒旦的作坊，这话说得很有理。犯错误大多数是由于无所事事、百无聊赖所致。懒人只会自寻烦恼或作茧自缚（prey upon 掠夺；捕食）。正如瓦茨所说，“我要勤快地工作，不管是粗活(labor)还是细活(skill)；因为撒旦还有些坏事(mischief n. 恶作剧)，专借懒人的手去做。”

idleness n. 懒惰；idle adj. 懒惰的；idler 懒汉

2.我们理所当然地接受了英语的一切，但是如果我们分析一下英语中似是而非的情况，我们马上就会发现“快的沙子”（quicksand，流沙，也只陷阱，困境）往往走得很慢，“拳击的圆圈”（boxing rings，拳击场）是方的，―几内亚猪‖（guinea pig，天竺鼠）既不是来自几内亚，也不是猪。还有，既然名词作家（writers）去掉词尾的rs 就可以成为动词“写作(write）”，那为什么名词“手指”（fingers）、杂货店（grocers）、锤子（hammers）去掉rs就不能成为各自相应的动词呢？如果牙齿的复数是teeth，那为什么售货亭的复数不是beeth？一只鹅我们用goose，两只鹅用geese，那么，一只驼鹿用moose（单复数同形），两只驼鹿就应该是meese了？为什么一条索 引是index，两条索引却成了indices？

1. President Hu Urges Efforts to Ensure Global Energy Security.（胡锦涛主席敦促国际社会协同努力保障全球能源安全）

1. The international community should take joint efforts to ensure global energy security, Chinese President Hu Jintao said in St. Petersburg, Russia on July 17.

1、中国国家主席胡锦涛七月十七日在俄罗斯圣彼得堡发表讲话说，国际社会应该共同努力，保障全球能源安全。

2. "To ensure global energy security, we need to develop and implement a new energy security concept that calls for mutually beneficial cooperation, diversified forms of development and common energy security through coordination," Hu said in a written speech to the outreach session of the G8 summit.

2、在八国集团同发展中国家领导人对话会议上，胡主席在讲话稿中谈到：“为保障全球能源安全，我们应该树立和落实互利合作、多元发展、协同保障的新能源安全观。”

3. While global energy security is crucial to the economic growth and people's livelihood of all countries, the world peace and stability, and common development, "few countries can achieve energy security without joining in international cooperation," he stressed.

3、胡锦涛主席强调，全球能源安全，关系各国的经济命脉和民生大计，对维护世界和平稳定、促进各国共同发展至关重要。绝大多数国家都不可能离开国际合作而获得能源安全保障。

4. In this regard, efforts should be made in the following three priority areas, Hu said.

4、胡主席说，具体而言，应该着重在以下三方面进行努力。

5. First, cooperation should be enhanced for mutual benefit in energy development and utilization.

5、一是要加强能源开发利用的互利合作。

6. "To ensure global energy security, it is important to strengthen dialogue and cooperation between energy exporters and consumers and among major energy consumers," he said.

6、他说：“实现全球能源安全，必须加强能源出口国和消费国之间、能源消费大国之间的对话和合作。”

7. He urged the international community to strengthen policy coordination and improve mechanisms for monitoring the international energy market and responding to energy emergencies.

7、他敦促国际社会应该加强政策协调，完善国际能源市场监测和应急机制。

8. Second, a system for R&D and extension of advanced energy technologies needs to be put in place, Hu said.

2. How to Learn with Success. （如何学有成效）

1. To learn with success is not a very difficult task if some fundamental principles are laid down. While discussing this subject, I'd like to mention four indispensable principles: diligence, devotion, constancy, and punctuality.

1、如果定下几条基本的行为准则，学有成效并非难事。在讨论这个问题时，我想提到4条必不可少的学习准则：勤奋用功、专心致志、持之以恒、讲究准时。{中石油谚语}.

2. All things can be conquered by diligence. It makes the foolish wise, the poor rich, and the humble noble. It produces a wonderful effect. In learning, the work of a diligent fool doubles that of a lazy wit.

2、勤奋可以征服一切。勤奋可以使愚人变聪明，使穷人成为富人，使卑贱者成为高贵者。勤奋产生神奇的效果。在学习上，一个以勤补拙的人的实效会成倍于一个懒惰的聪明人。

3. Devotion means to set our heart on one thing at a time and give up all other thoughts. Never think of learning another subject while studying one subject. Those who often change their studies will never succeed in the long run. Therefore, in order to be successful we need devotion.

3、专心致志指一次全神贯注于一件事，摒除一切杂念。在学习某一科目时，千万别想起另一门学科的学习。那些时常改变学习内容的人终究将一事无成。因此，为了成功需要专心专意学习。

4. Constancy makes success a certainty. On the other hand, inconstancy often results in failure. If we study day after day, there is nothing that cannot be achieved. We should remember a worthy proverb "Constant dropping of water wears away a stone."

4、持之以恒是成功的保证。反之，缺乏恒心常常导致失败。如果我们日复一日地坚持学习，就没有达不到的目的。我们应记住—一条有价值的谚语“水滴石穿”。{中石油谚语}.

5. Besides, there is another rule that contributes to one's accomplishments, that is, punctuality. The habit of keeping regular hours is of extreme importance to successful learning. Work while you work; play while you play. Every man will certainly become strong and wise if he does so.

5、此外，还有一条帮助人们取得成就的规则，即准时。养成按时的习惯对于卓有成效的学习极为重要。工作时工作，游戏时游戏。如果这样做了，每个人都会变得既强健又聪明。

3. We Need Friends.

3、我们需要朋友.

1. The word, friend, covers a wide range of meanings. It can be a nodding acquaintance, a comrade, a confidant, a partner, a playmate, an intimate colleague, etc.

1、“朋友”这个词的意义很广。朋友可以是点头之交、同志、知已、伙伴、玩伴、亲密的同事等。

2. Everyone needs friendship. No one can sail the ocean of life single-handed. We need help from, and also give help to, others. In modern society, people attach more importance to relations and connections. A man of charisma has many friends. His power lies in his ability to give.

2、人人都需要友谊，没有人能独自在人生的海洋中航行。我们给人以帮助，也需要别人的帮助。在现代社会，人们更重视关系和联系。一个有非凡魅力的人有许多朋友，他的力量在于他的奉献能力。

3. As life is full of strife and conflict, we need friends to support and help us out of difficulties. Our friends give us warnings against danger. Our friends offer us advice with regard to how do deal with various situations. True friends share not only our joys but also our sorrows.

3、生活充满矛盾和斗争，我们需要朋友的支持，以帮助我们摆脱困境。朋友提醒我们警惕险滩。朋友主动给我们以忠告，告诉我们如何应付各种不同的局势。真正的朋友与我们同甘共苦。

4. With friendship, life is happy and harmonious. Without friendship, life is sad and unfortunate. I have friends in high positions and friends in the rank and file. Some are rich and in power. Some

are relatively poor and without power. Some are like myself, working as a teacher, reading and writing, content with a simple life. We all care for each other, love and help each other. We feel we are happiest when we chat and exchange ideas with one another. With my friends, I know what to treasure, what to tolerate and what to share.

4、有了友谊，生活幸福、和谐；没有友谊，生活变得悲伤、不幸。我有地位高的朋友，也有地位低的朋友；有的有钱有权，有的较穷且无权无势。有的和我一样教书，读读写写，满足于简朴的生活。我们都互相关心，互相爱护，互相帮助。我们觉得朋友们在一起闲谈交流思想时感到最开心。对我的朋友们，我知道该珍惜什么，容忍什么，分享什么。

5. I will never forget my old friends, and I'll keep making new friends. I will not be cold and indifferent to my poor friends, and I will show concern for them, even if it is only a comforting word.

5、我决不会忘记老朋友，同时继续结交新朋友。我对穷朋友绝不冷漠，而是关心他们，哪怕只是一句安慰的话。

4. Hard Work Is Good for Health.

4、努力工作有利于健康.

1. Scientists find that hard-working prestigious people live longer than average men and women, and that career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than the job-holders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases correspondingly by 2%. All this comes down to one point: work is helpful to health.

1、科学家们发现努力工作的名人比一般人寿命长，职业妇女比家庭妇女健康。有证据表明，失业者比在业人员健康状况差。调查表明失业率每增长1％，死亡率相应增长2％。所有这些都表明：工作有利于健康。

2. Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy, away from loneliness and solitude. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and solitary when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. Through work, people come into contact with each other. And through collective activity, they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him liable to disease.

2、为什么工作对健康有好处?因为工作使人忙碌，让人不会感到寂寞、孤独。研究表明，人们无事可做时会感到不愉快、忧虑、孤独。相反，忙于工作的人感到最愉快。许多热爱事业、卓有成就的人感到在努力工作时最幸福。工作起到人与现实之间的桥梁作用：通过工作，人们彼此接触；通过集体活动，人们得到友谊和温暖。这有利于健康。失去工作就是失去一切，它影响人的精神，使人容易患病。

3. Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one

feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing when a doctor successfully operates on a patient, and when a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.

3、此外，工作给人以充实感和成就感。工作使人感到自身价值和社会地位。当作家写完书，医生成功地给病人做完手术，教师看到学生的成长，他们的幸福溢于言表。

4. From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study well and live a happy and healthy life.

4、由此我们可以得出结论：工作越多越幸福，也越健康。让我们努力工作，好好学习，过幸福健康的生活。

5. Sports and Games.

5、体育运动.

1. What fun it is to jump into a pool or go swimming in a river in summer! How joyful and relaxing it is to have a game of table tennis after a day of study at school! And how exciting it is to play or watch a close game of basketball or volleyball! All over the world millions of people take part in different kinds of sports. Sports are perhaps the most popular form of relaxation that almost all can enjoy, whether boys or girls, men or women, young or old.

1、夏天跳进池塘或到江河里游泳多么有趣!一天的学习之后打一场乒乓球赛多么令人轻松愉快!参加或观看一场势均力敌的篮球赛或排球赛多么令人兴奋!全世界千百万人们参加各种各样的运动。体育运动大概是几乎所有人都喜爱的最普遍的令人松弛的娱乐形式，男女老少都很喜欢体育运动。

2. Some people seem to think that sports and games are unimportant things that people do at times when they are not working, instead of going to the cinema, watching TV, listening to the radio, or sleeping. But in fact sports and games can be of great value, especially to people who work with their brains. They should not be treated only as amusements.

2、有些人似乎认为体育活动不是什么重要的事情，只是人们在不工作的时候，不看电影，不看电视，不听广播，不睡觉时才去参加的活动。其实，体育运动很有价值，特别是对脑力劳动者大有好处。体育运动不应仅仅被当作娱乐活动来对待。

3. Sports and games build our bodies, prevent us from gaining weights, and keep us healthy. But these are not their only uses. They give us valuable practice in helping the eyes, brain and muscles to work together. In table tennis, the eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed and direction, and pass this information on to the brain. The brain then has to decide what to do, and sends its orders to the muscles of the arms, legs, and so on, so that the ball is met and hit back where the player wants it to go. All this must happen with very great speed, and only those who have had a lot of practice at table tennis can do this successfully. For those who work with their brains, the practice of such skills is especially useful.

3、体育运动增强体质，防止我们发胖，使我们保持身体健康。但体育运动的作用不仅仅限于这些方面。体育运动给我们的眼睛、大脑和肌肉以宝贵的锻炼，促使它们协同工作。打

中石油谚语篇四

01(新)

1. The Value of Time时间的价值

1. "Time" says the proverb, "is money".谚语说：“时间就是金钱。”pockets. 这句话的意思是，一时片刻只要用得有效，都会让我们的口袋增添一些钱。If our time is usefully employed, it will

produce some useful and important piece of work will fetch its price in the

it will add to our experience and increase

our capacities so as to

comes. 如果我们的时间使用得当，就能生产出有用的、重要的产品，在市场上卖得一定的价钱；就能充实经验，增长才干，等到适当的时机来临时，我们就能挣得金钱。There can thus be no doubt that time is convertible into money. 因此，毫无疑问，时间可以转化为金钱。让那些对浪费时间满不在乎的人记住这一点。let them remember that an hour misspent is equivalent to the loss of a banknote; and that an hour utilized is tantamount to so much silver or gold; 让他们记住，浪费一小时等于损失一张钞票，而利用一小时就等于得到若干金银。and then they will probably think twice before they give their consent to the loss of any part of their time. 这样，他们想浪费时间时或许会三思而后行。

2. Moreover, our life is nothing more than our time. 再说，我们的生命无非就是我们活在人世的时间。To kill time is therefore a form of suicide. 因此，浪费时间也就是一种自杀。We are shocked when we think of death, and we spare no pains, no trouble, and no expense to preserve life. 我们想到死，便惊恐不已，因而不惜一切努力、麻烦和费用来保全我们的生命。But we are too often indifferent to loss of an hour or of a day, forgetting that our life is the sum total of the days and of the hours we live. 可是，我们对于损失一个小时或者一天的时间却往往漠不关心、无动于衷，忘记了我们的生命原本就是我们生活的每一天、每一小时的总和。A day or an hour wasted is therefore so much life forfeited. 因此，浪费一天或一小时也就是丧失一天或一小时的生命。Let us bear this in mind, and waste of time will appear to us in the light of a crime as culpable as suicide itself. 让我们记住这一点，这样就会把浪费时间看作一种罪过，跟自杀一样应该受到惩罚。

3. There is a third consideration which will also tend to warn us against loss of time. 还有第三层考虑，也会提醒我们别浪费时间。Our life is a brief span measuring some sixty or seventy years in all, but nearly one half of this has to be spent in sleep; some years have to be spent over our meals; some over dressing and undressing; some in

making journeys on land and voyages by sea; some in merry-making, either on our own account or for the sake of others; some in celebrating religious and social festivities; some in watching over the sick-beds of our nearest and dearest relatives. 人生短暂，总共不过六七十年，可是将近一半时间必须用于睡眠；吃饭时间加起来也得花去一些年；穿衣脱衣又是一些年；水陆、陆路旅行又是一些年；再加上一些年娱乐时间（不论是为自己还是为别人）；一些年宗教节日和社会节日的庆祝活动；还有一些年在病床边照看至亲至爱。Now if all these years were to be deducted from the term over which our life extends, we shall find about fifteen or twenty years at our disposal for active work. 现在如果从我们的寿命中扣除所有这些岁月，我们将会发现，能受我们支配的有效的工作时间大约仅十五或二十年而己。Whoever remembers this can never willingly waste a single moment of his life. 谁能记住这一点，谁就不会心甘情愿地浪费他生命的分分秒秒和每时每刻。 "It is astonishing" says Lord Chesterfield, "that anyone can squander away in absolute idleness one single moment of that portion of time which is allotted to us in this world. 查斯特菲尔德勋爵说过，“对于分配给我们这一生的时间，若有人游手好闲，即使浪费片刻，也是令人吃惊的。Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy

every moment of it!" 要认识到时间的真正价值，要争分夺秒，充分利用有限的时间。”

4. All time is precious; but the time of our childhood and of our youth is more precious than any other portion of our existence, for those are the periods when alone we can acquire knowledge and develop our faculties and capacities. 所有的时间都是宝贵的，而我们童年和青年时期的光阴比一生中的其他阶段都更为宝贵，因为只有在这两个阶段我们才能获取知识、增长才干和发展各种才能。If we allow these morning hours of life to slip away, unutilized, we shall never be able to recoup the loss. 如果我们让这些生命的早晨时光悄悄溜走，这损失将永远也无法弥补。As we grow older, our power of acquisition gets blunted, so that the art or science which is not acquired in childhood or youth will never be acquired at all. 等我们长大了，获得知识的能力就变得迟钝了，因此在童年和青年时期未能获得的知识和技能将永远不能获得了。Just as money laid out at interest doubles and trebles itself in time, the precious hours of childhood and youth, if properly used, will yield us incalculable advantages. 储蓄金钱，产生利息，到时候会翻两三倍；同样，童年和青年时期的宝贵时光，如果使用得当，必将带来不可估量的收益。 "Every moment you lose" says Lord

Chesterfield, "is so much character and advantage lost; 查斯特菲尔德勋爵还说过，“丧失的每一时刻就等于丧失了与之相当的名和利。as on the other hand, every moment you now employ usefully is so much time wisely laid out at prodigious interest." 从另一方面看，你现在有效利用的每一时刻正是明智地以这时间作为投资，将来定会获取巨额的利息。”

5. A proper employment of time is of great benefit to us from a moral point of view. 从道德的观点来看，恰当地利用时间对我们也有很大的好处。Idleness is justly said to be the rust of the mind and an idle brain is said to be Satan's workshop. 懒惰是心灵上的锈迹，懒人的头脑是撒旦的作坊，这话说得很有理。It is mostly when you do not know what to do with yourself that you do something ill or wrong. 犯错误大多数是由于无所事事、百无聊赖所致。The mind of the idler preys upon itself. 懒人只会自寻烦恼和作茧自缚。As Watts has said: In works of labor or of skill

Let me be busy too;

For Satan finds some mischief still

For idle hands to do. 正如艾萨克·瓦茨所说，“我要勤快地工作，不管是粗活还是细活；因为撒旦还有些坏事，专借懒人的手去做。”
