I try not to be biased, but I had my doubts about hiring Stevie. His placement counselor assured me that he would be a good, reliable busboy.

Stevie was short, a little dumpy, with the smooth facial features and thick-tongued speech of Down’s syndrome. 1.我力求不存偏见，不过在雇用史蒂维时我的确心存疑虑。他的就业顾问向我保证，说他会成为出色、可靠的餐馆杂工。我从未雇过智障的员工，是否要招收一位，我举棋不定。我的顾客会有什么反应，我没有把握。史蒂维是个矮个儿，胖墩墩的，如其他唐氏综合症患者一样，面部光滑，口齿不清。5.Our only problem was convincing him to wait to clean a table until after the customers were finished.

If he thought a customer was watching, his brows would pucker with added concentration. He took pride in doing his job exactly right, and you had to love how hard he tried to please each and every person he met. 5. 我们唯一的问题是得说服他等待客人用餐完毕再去收拾桌子。他总是在不起眼的地方守候，左右脚替换着支撑体重，眼睛巡视整个餐厅。一看见哪张餐桌边的客人都离去，他立即赶过去，仔细地把碗碟收拾到餐车上，拿起抹布仔细地擦桌子，动作娴熟、夸张。要是他觉得有顾客正在看他，他就会眉头紧锁，更加专注。工作一丝不苟，这是他自豪的源泉。他取悦面前的每一个人，那煞费苦心的劲头真是惹人喜爱。Unit Three: Friendship.分享是一种美Word in Action1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

If you want something, go and earn / work for it.When we approach the notion of friendship, our first problem is that there is a lack of firmly agreed and socially acknowledged criteria for what makes a person a friend. In one setting, we may describe someone as a friend; in another, the label may seem less appropriate. Therefore, people tend to have a very thin understanding of what friendship really means. To help us understand what friendship really means, we need to review some classical views of friendship.我们探讨友谊这个概念时，遇到的第一个问题是，没有一致赞同并获社会公认的认定（某人为）朋友的标准。在某一情境下，我们会把某个人称为朋友；
然而，情境一旦变迁，朋友这个称呼就显得没那么贴切。因此，人们对友谊的真谛的理解往往是非常肤浅的。为了帮助我们理解友谊的真正含义，我们需要回顾有关友谊的几种传统的看法。Unit Six: HappinessWord in Action1 In the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

You can’t substitute material things for love or for gentleness or for tenderness or for a sense of comradeship.“你知道我对此是如何理解的吗?这些人渴望得到爱，于是就接受替代品。他们满心欢喜地接受着物质东西，期待类似于拥抱的感情回报。可是，不管用。你无法用物质代替爱、柔情、温情、甚至是志同道合的感觉。“Remember what I said about finding a meaningful life? I wrote it down, but now I can recite it: Devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.“还记得我曾说过的关于寻找人生意义的那几句话吗？我写下来了，而且现在能背诵：奉献自己，关爱他人；
