发中英惯用例句:

  • 科尔曼在接受记者采访时说：“我认为这是经济发展的结果。公司业务更多、需要处理的事情更多，员工们已没有多余的时间去考虑如何打发时间了。”

  • 当然，在停车场把你老板的车撞了是可能发生的。你告诉他们是你干的是正确的，但是这还不是你最应该告诉老板的事情。

  • 不要认为什么都是“应当”的－－你应该对自己的职业发展负责，而不是你的公司。在向老板提出问题或是抱怨之前，先尝试一切能自己解决的办法。如果你不得不提，也要准备好一个解决方案，这个方案有她的帮助就能实现。
    Don't have a sense of entitlement -- your company isn't responsible for your career growth: you are. Only approach your boss with a problem or complaint if you've explored all options for resolving it yourself. When you do, be prepared with a solution you could implement with her help.
  • 不从底层做起你怎么能掌握发展所需要的技能？这就好比连狗刨都没学会就想在奥运会上拿金牌。把你刚毕业后的工作看成职业生涯中的临时站点而不是永久站点。也不要急着获得晋升－－前方的职业道路由你扛重担的时间会很长。快乐地一边拿着工资一边学习吧，这样获得下一份工作就不费吹灰之力了!
    How can you master the skills it takes to get ahead without putting any time in the trenches? That's like saying you could win an Olympic medal in swimming without learning to doggie paddle first. Look at your first post-college positions as temporary stops on your career path instead of permanent ones. Don't be in such a rush to get promoted either -- you have a long career life ahead of you to shoulder the heavy burden of being on top. In the meantime, enjoy getting paid to learn everything you can so that snagging your next job isn't quite as challenging!
  • 旧金山劳动发展专家DavidBach说，求职者能”对那些热门雇主多加关注，提高自己的竞争优势“。他还说，可以赶紧关注那些受经济变化影响较少的领域，例如教育、医疗和能源。
    David Bach, a workforce development specialist in San Francisco, says job seekers can "improve their competitive edge by becoming more aware of the top ongoing employers." Fields that are less affected by the evolving economy -- such as education, health care, and energy -- make an ideal focus right now, he adds.

  • 我发现，现今处于巅峰的领导者要明明白白体现自身优先要实现的目标就必须要做以下十件事。无论你是只负责某个部门、某个规模不小的公司的分部还是某个富可敌国的跨国公司，引导你作出决定的领导原则都应是相似的。
    It seems to me that today's prime-time leader needs a top-10 list that clearly lays out his or her priorities. Whether you're running a department, a large corporate division, or a multinational with a market cap, the leadership principles that guide your decisions are much the same.
  • 尊重客户。互联网让你的客户享有更多畅所欲言的机会，说出他们真实的想法，喜欢你什么，不喜欢你什么。倾听他们的声音，并亲自融进你从事的市场中去征求客户的反馈。你需要根据情况不断改进公司的服务。否则，你就会发现客户不断减少(最终，关门大吉)。
    Honor your customer. The Internet lets your customers sound off and tell you exactly what they like or don't like about your business. Listen to them. Get out into the markets you serve, and ask your customers for feedback. Make the necessary changes to improve service or else you may find yourself with fewer customers (and eventually, out of business).
  • 视员工为客户。要吸引更多的客户，你就必须首先吸引公司的员工。加大培训和辅导方面的投资。让每个员工都了解公司发展的目标，让他们充满不断前进并作出贡献的动力。培养和奖励公司中20％最优秀的、可为公司产生80％效益的员工，而把那最差劲的10％却带给你80％头痛的员工清除出去。
    Treat employees like customers. If you want to inspire your customers, you must first inspire your employees. Invest heavily in training and mentoring. Explain the organization's goals so that everyone has the information and motivation to contribute. Nurture and reward the top 20％ of your staff who produce 80％ of the results, and actively weed out the bottom 10％ who give you 80％ of the headaches.
  • 与科技交朋友。科技可以改变你公司出售的产品、运作方式以及应对未来的方式。绝不要忽略技术的发展。你应该运用技术来创造新的产品，拓展更多的流通渠道，以及改进与客户、合作伙伴间的交流 。
    Make technology your friend. Technology can transform what your company sells, how it operates, and how it prepares for the future. Don't even try to ignore it. Use it to create new products, tap new distribution channels, and improve communication with your customers and partners.
  • 健康状况：法律禁止医院与人资部门洩漏你的健康资讯。当他人发现你有，或曾有过，健康问题，他们会倾向改变态度–待你有如病童或将你屏除生活圈。
    Medical history: Hospitals and human resources departments are prohibited by law from giving out your medical information for a reason. People have a tendency to adjust their behavior when they find out you have, or had, a medical condition. They might treat you like a sick child or make you an outcast.
  • 发洩情绪的网站：假如你有使用社交网站或部落格表达你对私人生活或工作不满情绪的习惯，决不要让同事知道连结。你将必须清除留过的不雅网络言论，以及从今开始停止这麼做。
    Online venting sites: If you use your social networking profile or a blog to release frustration about your personal and work life, don't send your co-workers a link. You'll have to clean up your digital dirt (even more than it already should be) and censor yourself from now on.
  • 决不要提起你任何的疗程。小心眼的同事会以此散发谣言或背地裡说坏话，别让自己处於那种危机。
    Therapy sessions: Keep your visits with a therapist a private matter. Petty co-workers can start rumors about you or make snide remarks behind your back. No need to put yourself in that situation.
  • 减轻压力最有效的办法之一就是将注意力集中到我们可以有效控制的东西上－－我们自己的呼吸。在头脑－身体医学院，参加者通过呼气时反复轻声默念一个单词（任何单词，可以是"om"或"HailMary"），来达到一个“放松的反应”。通过许多次研究，Benson发现该练习可以使参加者血压降低，呼吸变缓，从而达到全身的平静。
    One of the most efficient ways to reduce stress is to focus inward on one thing we can effectively control: our own breath. At the Mind/Body Medical Institute, participants elicit a "relaxation response, " repeating a word - anything from "om" to "Hail Mary"--silently as they exhale. In numerous studies, Benson has found that the practice leads to lower blood pressure, slower breathing and an overall calm.
  • 最近，Wisconsin－Madison大学的RichardDavidson发现由心神贯注研究中心首创的一种冥想呼吸法能够对大脑产生影响。在一个小范围进行并即将发表的研究中，Davidson对一家生物技术公司的25名员工的大脑进行了成像，这些员工每周练习冥想6天，共练习了8周。他发现他们大脑额叶前部的左侧激活的情况有所增加，而这一部位与较低的焦虑水平、积极的情绪和大脑恐惧中心扁桃核的抑制相关。
    Richard Davidson at the University of Wisconsin-Madison recently found that a form of meditative breathing pioneered at the Center for Mindfulness can affect the brain. In a small, soon-to-be-published study, Davidson took brain images of 25 members of a biotech firm who practiced meditation six days a week for eight weeks. He found increased activation in the left side of the prefrontal part of the brain, an area associated with lower anxiety, positive emotion and inhibition of the amygdala, the brain's fear center.
  • 科学家发现彻底不考虑这些问题很有帮助。迈阿密大学触觉研究所所长TiffanyField在对由于安德鲁飓风而受到心理创伤的60名在校儿童的研究中发现，连续一个月、每周接受两次30分钟按摩的孩子其忧郁情况有所下降，而那些看放松内容的录像片的孩子则没有什么改观。作为人的压力标记的皮质醇水平在接受按摩的一组中也出现了相当程度的下降。如果你不喜欢按摩，那也可以出去好好走一走、游游泳或骑骑车。锻炼不仅有利于保持身体健康，而且能减少焦虑和忧郁。
    Scientists are finding that it can help to get outside your head completely. In a study of 60 schoolchildren traumatized by Hurricane Andrew, Tiffany Field, director of the University of Miami's Touch Research Institute, found that depression dropped in kids who received 30 minutes of massage twice a week for a month，kids who watched a relaxing video showed no improvement. And cortisol levels, the body's marker for stress, declined significantly in the massage group. If massage isn't your thing, go for a vigorous walk, swim or bike ride. Exercise is not only good at keeping you fit，it reduces anxiety and depression, too.
  • 研究者们说，尽管做起来很难，但是在多事之秋，人们需要从生活的最简单的快乐中获取安慰。在Rochester大学医学院进行的一次小范围调查中，O.J.Sahler博士发现在骨髓移植病人中，那些听音乐的反应感到的疼痛和恶心程度比较轻，而且他们移植的骨髓也更早就开始工作。另外，笑可能确实是良药。LomaLinda大学公共卫生学院的LeeBerk博士发现一组看了一小时喜剧录像的学生其肾上腺素和皮质醇水平都出现了显著下降。“如果你非常害怕，”Berk说，“那就看小丑表演吧。”这才是值得我们好好考虑的东西。
    It may be difficult, but in troubled times, researchers say, people need to take comfort from life' s simplest pleasures.In a small study at the University of Rochester School of Medicine, Dr. O. J. Sahler found that bone-marrow transplant patients who listened to music reported less pain and nausea, and their transplants took less time to become functional. And, yes, laughter may be good medicine, too. Dr. Lee Berk, of the Loma Linda University School of Public Health, discovered that a group of students who watched a comic video for an hour had marked reductions in epinephrine and cortisol levels. "If fear is too great, " says Berk, "send in the clowns." Now that's something we can all meditate on.
  • 了解实情。在你的部门、公司或者职位上发生的变化你是第一个还是最后一个知道的？理想情况是，你想要靠近信息源，为了能处于那个位置，加强你和同事的人际关系吧。认识各个部门的人能帮助你了解公司内部的新发展。阅读行业刊物能让你知道雇主寻求的技能中那些是你应该掌握的技术，还能知道你工作的领域里在经济下滑中行情怎么样
    Be in the know. Are you the first or last to learn what is happening in your department, company, or profession? Ideally, you want to be near the front of the pack. To be in that position, work on strengthening your relationships with coworkers. Getting to know others throughout your organization can help you stay apprised of new developments within the company. Reading industry publications can help you determine the skills employers seek, which technologies you may need to learn and how your field is weathering the current downturn.
