拉塞尔-贝克曾说过：“热爱新闻写作和想当记者的人多半都有一种浪漫的理想或梦想，他们或者希望长大成为马克吐温、海明威这样的作家，或者成为某个大媒体的总编、首席记者。我八岁的时候就开始投身新闻工作啦，这是我母亲的主意。她对生活充满了幻想，而且她不想让我像我父亲那样，日出而作，日入而息，一生劳碌，到死也不过留下几件破烂家具。她特别希望我能出人头地，在对我的勇气进行了一番冷静地赞美后，把我介绍到了《星期六晚邮报》。就这样，我开始沿街兜售报纸。 译文：Russell Baker had once said:“Those who deeply loved the news writing and wanted to work as reporter had one kind of romantic ideal or dream mostly.They hoped that someday they might become writers like Mark Twain or Hemingway,or become some big
media editor-in-chief, chief reporter.When I was only eight years old,I embarked on journalism and this was my mother’s idea. She had flled herself with fantasy to life. She did not want to let me be the same as my father who had worked from dawn to dusk,living the life of toils and leaving behind with us a few pieces of tattered furniture till his death. She expected especially I could make something of myself.After giving me a moderate praise on my gumption she introduced me to The Saturday Evening Post. I begun to sell the newspaper in this way.”

Book2-Unit6
当人们说起奥巴马的魅力时，常常会想起约翰F肯尼迪。但共和党人却说，由于奥巴马缺乏经验，他令他们想起的不是约翰F肯尼迪，而是想起吉米卡特。这听起来可不像是恭维的话了。奥巴马的总统候选人身份最引人注目之处在于他在美国历史上是独一无二的。这当然要从他的种族说起。奥巴马是一位来自堪萨斯州的、周游世界的白人妇女与一位从肯尼亚来到美国的交流留学生结合的产物。他的父母确实是非洲人和美国人。因此有了奥巴马，非洲裔美国人。小时候在夏威夷长大，那时他叫巴里奥巴马，但是从政前，他改回了巴拉克这个名字；并且从未隐瞒其中间名侯赛因——其父亲名字。然后奥巴马绝不会让种族问题限制了他的竞选之路。
译文：When describing Obama’s charisma, Democrats often invoke John F. Kennedy. But Republicans say that with his paucity of experience, Obama reminds them less of Kennedy and more of Jimmy Carter. This is not intended as a compliment. The most striking aspect of Barack Obama’s presidential candidacy, however,is that he is unique in the American experience.It starts,of course,with his race.Obama is the product of the union of a white woman from Kansas who wandered the world and a Kenyan man who came to the United States as an exchange student.His parents were truly African and American.Then
there
is
Barack
Obama,an
African-American.As a kid growing up in Hawaii, he went by Barry Obama,but even before going into politics, he reverted to his given name, Barack, and he never hid his middle name, Hussein, which was his father’s.However,Obama will never let his race limit his campaign.
