For university graduates， it is always not so easy to find a good job. They often wonder at the large number of employers who do not respond to their applications for jobs. They say that despite enclosing return envelopes they hear nothing at all， or at best， an impersonal note ① is sent declaring that the post for which they applied has been filled.

　　Applicants often have the suspicion that vacancies are taken up by friends and relatives and that advertisements are only put out for show②。 Many of them are tired of writing around③ and feel that if only they could obtain an interview with the right person their application would meet with success.

　　難點(diǎn)提示：

　　①無人情味的，冷淡的

　�、谘b樣子

　　③到處寫信

　　參考譯文：

　　對于大學(xué)畢業(yè)生來說，找到一份好工作始終不是件那么容易的事情。他們常常弄不懂為什么那么多的雇主不答復(fù)他們的求職信。他們說雖然附上了回信的信封，他們卻只字未聞，或至多收到一張不冷不熱的便條，宣布他們申請的那個(gè)職位已有人填補(bǔ)了。

　　求職應(yīng)聘者常常懷疑空缺是不是給朋友和親屬們占去了，懷疑廣告只不過是登一登擺擺樣子的。他們中的很多人厭倦了到處投求職信，他們覺得只要能夠碰對人，獲得一次面試的機(jī)會，他們的求職申請就會成功。

　　英譯漢

　　The “standard of living” of a country means the average person’ s② share of the goods and services which the country produces. A country’ s standard of living， therefore， depends first and foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. “Wealth” in this sense is not money， for we do not live on ② money but on things that money can buy： “goods” such as food and clothing， and “services” such as transport and entertainment.

　　A country’s capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors， most of which have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extent upon a country’s natural resources， such as coal， gold， and other minerals， water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals， and have a fertile soil and a favorable climate; other regions possess none of them.

　　難點(diǎn)提示：

　�、僖话闳�，老百姓

　　②靠……為生

　　參考譯文：

　　任何一個(gè)國家的生活水平，指的是那個(gè)國家生產(chǎn)的產(chǎn)品和提供的服務(wù)為普通老百姓分享的情況。因此，一個(gè)國家的生活水平，首先取決于它創(chuàng)造財(cái)富的能力。在這個(gè)意義上，財(cái)富并不是指金錢，因?yàn)槲覀兩�存靠的不是錢，而是靠錢能買到的東西：比如食物和衣服這些“產(chǎn)品”，交通和娛樂這些“服務(wù)”。

　　一個(gè)國家創(chuàng)造財(cái)富的能力取決于很多因素，其中大部分因素相互作用。財(cái)富在很大程度上依賴于一個(gè)國家的自然資源，比如煤礦、金礦和其他礦物質(zhì)、水源等等。世界上有些地區(qū)煤礦和礦物質(zhì)的儲量豐富，土壤肥沃，氣候適宜，其他地區(qū)卻一樣都不具備。
