Passage 1.

Whether it's in the hands of animated polar bears or Santa Claus, there's one thing you'll find in nearly all ads for Coca-Cola, the characteristic glass bottle.

无论是动画北极熊还是圣诞老人手中，你在几乎所有可口可乐广告中都能找到一样东西，那就是标志性的玻璃瓶。

Most Americans don't drink soda out of the glass bottles seen in Coke's ads anymore.

大多数美国人不再从可口可乐广告中看到的玻璃瓶里喝苏打水了。

But this week, the company is celebrating a century of the bottle that's been sold in more than 200 countries.

但本周，该公司正在庆祝这款瓶子的一百年，它已在200多个国家销售。

Flashback to 1915, when a bottle of Coca-Cola cost just a nickel.

回到1915年，当时一瓶可口可乐只需5分钱。

As the soft drink gained in popularity, it faced a growing number of competitors, counterfeits even trying to copy Coke's logo.

随着这款软饮料的普及，它面临着越来越多的竞争对手，甚至仿冒品试图复制可口可乐的标志。

So according to Coca-Cola historian Ted Ryan, the company decided to come up with packaging that couldn't be duplicated.

因此，据可口可乐历史学家泰德·瑞安称，公司决定设计一种无法被复制的包装。

A product request was sent to eight different glass makers.

一份产品要求被发送给了八家不同的玻璃制造商。

Workers at the Root Glass Company got the request and began flipping through the encyclopedia at the local library, landing on cocoa seed.

鲁特玻璃公司的工人们收到了要求，并开始在当地图书馆翻阅百科全书，最终选中了可可种子。

Though cocoa seed is not an ingredient of the soda, they designed their bottle based on the seed's shape and large middle.

尽管可可种子不是这种苏打水的成分，但他们根据种子的形状和宽大的中间部分设计了瓶子。

It won over Coke executives in Atlanta and would go on to receive its own trademark, spur collections and earn Coca-Cola an iconic image that made it part of American culture for a century.

它赢得了亚特兰大可口可乐高管的青睐，并随后获得了自己的商标，刺激了收藏热，并为可口可乐赢得了一个标志性形象，使其成为美国文化的一部分长达一个世纪。

It was 100 years ago this week that the bottle earned a patent.

正是在100年前的本周，这款瓶子获得了专利。

By World War II, Coke bottle sales had ballooned into billions.

到第二次世界大战时，可口可乐瓶的销售额已膨胀至数十亿。

Americans mostly consume Coke out of aluminum or plastic today, but the glass bottle remains a symbol of America that's readily recognized around the world.

今天，美国人大多从铝罐或塑料瓶中饮用可口可乐，但玻璃瓶仍然是美国的象征，在全球范围内易于识别。

篇章2。

Research shows that a few moments of conversation with a stranger creates a measurable improvement in mood, but most of us are reluctant to start these conversations because we presume the opposite.

In an experiment, commuters who talked to nearby strangers found their commute more enjoyable than those who didn't.

在一项实验中，与附近陌生人交谈的通勤者发现他们的通勤比不交谈的人更愉快。

They were asked to predict whether they'd enjoy the commute more if they conversed with other people.

Intriguingly, most expected the more solitary experience to be more pleasurable.

有趣的是，大多数人预期更孤独的经历会更愉快。

Why is this?

为什么会这样？

Social anxiety appears to be the problem.

社交焦虑似乎是问题所在。

People's reluctance to start conversations with nearby strangers comes partly from underestimating others' interest in connecting.

人们不愿与附近陌生人开始交谈，部分原因是低估了他人建立联系的兴趣。

The sad thing is that people presume that a nearby stranger doesn't want to converse and don't start a conversation.

可悲的是，人们认为附近陌生人不想交谈，从而不开始对话。

Only those who forced themselves to chat because it was required by the experiment found out what a pleasant experience it could be.

In some contexts, be social enough for their own well-being.

在某些情况下，为了自身福祉，要足够社交。

You should be chatting with the strangers you encounter.

你应该与遇到的陌生人聊天。

You may occasionally have a negative encounter that might stick in your memory.

你可能偶尔会有负面遭遇，这可能会留在记忆中。

This is because the human brain is biased to dwell on negative events.

这是因为人脑倾向于纠结于负面事件。

But starting conversations with strangers is still well worth the risk of rejection.

但与陌生人开始交谈，仍然值得冒被拒绝的风险。

It may surprise you that conversing with strangers will make them happier too.

可能会让你惊讶的是，与陌生人交谈也会让他们更快乐。

The pleasure of connection seems contagious.

Talk to anyone who is a generation or two older, and they would most likely comment that children are more spoiled these days.

与比你年长一两代的任何人交谈，他们很可能会评论说如今的孩子更娇惯。

No one wants to have or be around demanding, selfish, and spoiled children.

没有人想要或愿意与任性、自私、娇惯的孩子相处。

Those who get bad-tempered or silently brood when they're not given everything they want immediately.

那些当不能立即得到想要的一切时就脾气暴躁或默默生闷气的孩子。

Paradoxically, the parents of such children encourage this demanding behavior in the mistaken belief that by giving their children everything they can, their children will be happy.

矛盾的是，这些孩子的父母鼓励这种任性行为，错误地认为给予孩子一切就能使他们快乐。

In the short term, perhaps they are right.

短期来看，或许他们是对的。

But in the longer term, such children end up lonely, dependent, chronically dissatisfied, and resentful of the parents who tried so hard to please them.

但从长远来看，这些孩子最终会变得孤独、依赖、长期不满，并对那些努力取悦他们的父母心怀怨恨。

Undoubtedly, parents want to raise happy children who are confident, capable, and likable rather than spoiled and miserable.

毫无疑问，父母希望培养出自信、能干、讨人喜欢的孩子，而不是娇惯且不幸的孩子。

One factor hindering this is that parents can't or don't spend enough quality time with their kids and substitute this deficit with toys, games, gadgets, and the like.

阻碍这一点的一个因素是，父母无法或没有花足够多的时间陪伴孩子，并用玩具、游戏、小玩意等来弥补这种缺失。

Rather than getting material things, children need parents' devoted attention.

孩子们需要的不是物质的东西，而是父母专注的关注。

The quantity of time spent together is less important than the content of that time.

一起度过的时间的数量不如这段时间的内容重要。

Instead of instantly satisfying their wishes, parents should help them work out a plan to earn things they'd like to have.

父母不应立即满足孩子的愿望，而应帮助他们制定计划，通过努力获得想要的东西。

This teaches them to value their effort as well as what it achieves.

这教会他们珍视自己的努力及其成果。

Allow them to enjoy anticipation.

让他们享受期待的乐趣。

Numerous psychological studies have demonstrated that children who learn to wait for things they desire are more likely to succeed in a number of ways later in life.

众多心理学研究表明，学会等待想要的东西的孩子，更可能在未来的生活中取得多方面的成功。

One famous experiment in the 1960s involved three to six-year-old children.

20世纪60年代一个著名的实验涉及3至6岁的儿童。

They were given a choice between receiving a small reward, such as a cookie, immediately, or if they waited 15 minutes, they could have two.

他们可以选择立即获得一个小奖励，如一块饼干，或者等待15分钟获得两块。

Follow-up studies have found that those who chose to delay satisfaction are now more academically successful, have greater self-worth, and even tend to be healthier.

后续研究发现，那些选择延迟满足的孩子，现在学业上更成功，自我价值感更强，甚至更健康。

If they fail, children should be encouraged to keep trying rather than to give up if they really want the desired result.

如果他们失败了，应该鼓励孩子们继续努力，而不是放弃，如果他们真正想要达到预期结果的话。

This teaches them how to handle and recover from disappointment, which is associated with greater success and satisfaction academically, financially, and in personal relationships.

这教会他们如何应对和从失望中恢复，这与学业、财务和人际关系上更大的成功和满足感相关。

And lastly, parents should encourage their children to look at life from other points of view as well as their own.

最后，父母应该鼓励孩子从他人视角以及自己的视角看待生活。

This teaches them to be understanding of and sympathetic towards others, qualities sure to take them a long way in life.

这教会他们理解和同情他人，这些品质必将使他们受益终生。

Questions 19 to 22 are based on the lecture you have just heard.

It's not hard to mess up an interview.

搞砸一场面试并不难。

Most people feel nervous sitting across from a hiring manager, answering questions that effectively open themselves up for judgment.

大多数人坐在招聘经理对面，回答那些实际上让自己接受评判的问题时，都会感到紧张。

And your chances of being more carefully considered for the job can quickly go downhill just by saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.

而你被更认真考虑获得这份工作的机会，可能会因为说错话而迅速下降。

The most obvious thing not to do is complain.

最明显不要做的事情就是抱怨。

Employers want to hire positive people.

雇主希望雇佣积极的人。

Talking about a previous job negatively raises concerns that you might be difficult to manage, or you might be someone that blames management for your own poor performance.

负面谈论上一份工作会引发担忧，认为你可能难以管理，或者你可能是那种把自己的糟糕表现归咎于管理层的人。

Don't say that you've moved around in jobs because you haven't found the right fit or feel that you were not challenged enough.

不要说你频繁换工作是因为没有找到合适的职位，或者觉得挑战不够。

Statements like these will make you sound aimless and lost.

这样的话会让你听起来没有目标感，迷失方向。

An interviewer may well think, why would this role be any different for you?

面试官很可能会想，这个职位对你来说会有什么不同呢？

You will probably leave here in six months.

你很可能六个月后就会离开这里。

It also begs the question of what type of relationship you had with your manager.

这也引出了一个问题，你与经理的关系是怎样的。

It doesn't sound like you had open communication with him or her.

听起来你与他或她没有开放的沟通。

Managers usually love people who can self-sustain and enable growth through taking initiative, who are strong at following through their work, and who bring ideas and solutions to the table.

经理通常喜欢那些能够自我维持、通过主动性促进成长、擅长跟进工作、并能提出想法和解决方案的人。

If you were in a management or leadership position, when discussing your current role, never take all the credit for accomplishments or achievements.

如果你处于管理或领导职位，在讨论你当前角色时，不要独揽所有成就或功绩。

Emphasize your team and how through their talents, your vision was realized.

强调你的团队，以及通过他们的才能如何实现了你的愿景。

Most successful leaders know that they are only as good as their team.

大多数成功的领导者知道，他们和团队一样优秀。

And acknowledging this in an interview will go a long way towards suggesting that you might be the right person for the position you are applying for.

在面试中承认这一点，将大大有助于表明你可能是所申请职位的合适人选。

Lastly, have a good idea of what your role will be and try and convey the idea that you're flexible.

最后，清楚了解你的角色将是什么，并努力传达你具有灵活性。

Asking what your role will be suggests you will limit yourself purely to what is expected of you.

询问你的角色将是什么，暗示你将把自己限制在对你的期望之内。

In reality, your role is whatever you make of it.

实际上，你的角色取决于你如何创造它。

This is especially true in small companies, where the ability to adapt and take on new responsibilities is highly valued.

这在小公司尤其如此，在那里适应能力和承担新职责的能力受到高度重视。

And this is equally important if you're just starting out.

如果你刚开始工作，这同样重要。

Entry-level interviewees would do well to demonstrate a broad set of skills in most interviews.

初级面试者最好在大多数面试中展示广泛的技能。

It's important to have a wide skill set.

拥有广泛的技能集很重要。

As many startups and small companies are moving really fast, employers are looking for candidates that are intelligent and can quickly adapt and excel in a growing company.

由于许多初创公司和小型公司发展迅速，雇主正在寻找那些聪明、能够快速适应并在成长中的公司里表现出色的候选人。
