14、对照“译文助读”自主勘误。译文助读谢蕾,再接再厉!中国学生适应能力强六个月前,谢蕾告别了她在中国的家人和朋友,登上了前往伦敦的飞机。这是她第一次离开自己的祖国。课间休息时我在学生餐厅碰到正在排队的谢蕾,她告诉我说:“拿到签证后我很激动,因为我很久以前就梦想着能有这么一天,但是我又非常紧张,因为我不知道我所期望的是什么。”谢蕾今年21岁,来我们大学上学,希望获得工商管理资格证书。大多数外籍学生在进入学位课程学习之前都要学一年预科,而谢蕾已经读完半年了。她非常看重预科课程。她说:“预科课程非常有益。在这儿学习跟在中国学习是相当不同的。你必须事前做些准备。”“困难不仅仅只在学习方面,你还必须习惯一种
15、全新的生活方式,在一开始的时候这就会占去你的全部精力。”谢蕾解释说。她在中国时一直居住在同一座城市。她还告诉我,几乎每件事她都得重新学习。她说,“有时候我觉得自己像个小孩似的,我得学习如何使用电话,乘公交车时该怎样付款,在商店买东西时如果不知道商品的英文名字时,又怎样问店主。当我迷路不得不向过路行人问路时,经常听不懂他们说的话。他们说的话不像我们在听力磁带上听到的那样。”谢蕾说着笑了。谢蕾同房东一家人住在一起,他们给了她许多建议。虽然有些外国学生住在学生宿舍或公寓房里,但有些学生选择寄宿在英国人的家中。有的房东家也许会住着其他大学生,跟这样的人家住在一起会给她提供机会,更好地了解这个新的文化。
16、“当我听到我不理解的成语时,我可以向房东家里的人请教,”谢蕾解释说。“还有,当我想家的时候,房东家就是我家的替身,和他们在一起给了我很大的安慰。”谢蕾的预科课程还帮助她熟悉了西方大学里在学术方面的要求。她对我说,“我还记得我交给导师的第一篇论文。我在网上找到一篇文章,看来跟我所需要的信息恰好一样。于是我就那篇论文写了一篇类似小结性的文章,修改了草稿,然后交给了导师。我原以为我会得到高分的,结果只得了一个E。我非常吃惊,于是去找导师理论,想换个分数。他告诉我说,首先,我不能在不确认其他人所说的话时就写下来。此外,他认为,别人的想法并不是最重要的。他想要知道的是我所想的是什么。这倒把我弄糊涂了,因
17、为该文作者所知道的比我多得多。导师给我解释说,我得阅读大量的、有关不同观点的文章,并进行分析。然后,在我的论文中,我得表明我自己的观点,并且引用别的作者的观点来说明为什么我相信我的观点。最后,他甚至鼓励我反驳我读过的那些作者的观点,起初,我缺乏信心这样做,而现在我开始懂得了,我的分数也已经有所提高了。更重要的是,我现在是一个自主学习者。”谢蕾告诉我说,现在她在英国感到自在多了。以前看似很奇怪的事,如今觉得似乎很正常了。“我还有一件事要做。我一直忙于学习,以至于我没有时间去参与社交活动。我认为在学习与社交生活之间的平衡也是很重要的,所以我打算参加几个俱乐部,我希望会结识一些新朋友。”关于谢蕾的进
