Yes, novels; for I will not adopt that ungenerous and impolitic custom, so common with novel writers, of degrading by their contemptuous censure the very performances, to the number of which they are themselves adding--joining with their greatest enemies in bestowing the harshest epithets on such works, and scarcely ever permitting them to be read by their own heroine, who, if she accidentally take up a novel, is sure to turn over its insipid pages with disgust.

说到小说；我不会染上小说作者身上常见的那种刻薄无礼的习惯，用蔑视的口吻来贬低这出他们自己还在不断上演的演出――跟他们最大的敌人一起对小说作品使用最严厉的非难之词，还很少允许他们自己的女主角来读。如果哪天这些女主角拿起一本小说来读，一定会在恶心中把这些平淡无奇的书页翻过去。大意是小说作者们的文人相轻吧。

From these 4 studies, we could got the following conclusions:(1) The CPAI 22 traits could be divided into two categories, with the changing of age, period and cohort, type I traits didn't change, they were Logical vs Affective Orientation, Enterprise, Responsibility, Inferiority vs Self-Acceptance, Optimism vs Pessimism, Face, Family, Defensive, Graciousness vs Meanness; While with the changing of age, period and cohort, type II traits changed, they were Leadership, Self vs. Social Orientation, Veraciousness vs Slickness, Traditionalism vs Modernity, Harmony, Renqing, Meticulousness, Extraversion vs Introversion, Emotionality, Practical Mindedness, Internal vs External Locus of Control, Thrift vs Extravagance, Discipline.

总结上述四个研究的结果，我们可以得出如下结论：（1）CPAI所包含的人格特质可以分为两类，第一类人格特质不随社会发展的时间与空间分布以及年龄、代群发生明显的变化，这些人格特质包含：理智-情感、开拓性、责任感、自卑-自信、乐-悲观、面子、亲情、防御性、宽容-刻薄；第二类人格特质随着社会发展、年龄与代群三个纵向变量的发生一致性变化或者交互变化，这些人格特质包含：领导性、自我-社会取向、老实-圆滑、传统-现代性、和谐性、人情、严谨性、外向性、情绪性、务实性、外控性、节俭性、纪律性；同时，功能差异项目构成的问卷揭示出五个受社会环境影响很大的心理特征，它们分别是：犬儒-现实主义的生活态度、心理适应性、外圆内方的应对风格、自我效能感、个体主义的价值观。

There was on his face an expression of solemn and holy rapture, as if he were revealing to me the mysteries of his religion. I became far more interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement."My friend," said I,"if you can keep this up, if this is not merely the enthusiasm that comes from novelty, from having a new job, if you can keep up this zeal and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every sock in the United States." My amazement at his pride and joy in salesmanship will be easily understood by all who read this article. In many shops the customer has to wait for someone to wait upon him. And when finally some clerk does deign to notice you, you are made to feel as if you were interrupting him. Either he is absorbed in profound thought in which he hates to be disturbed or he is skylarking with a girl clerk and you feel like apologizing for thrusting yourself into such intimacy. He displays no interest either in you or in the goods he is paid to sell. Yet possibly that very clerk who is now so apathetic began his career with hope and enthusiasm. The daily grind was too much for him; the novelty wore off; his only pleasures were found outside of working hours. He became a mechanical, not inspired, salesman. After being mechanical, he became incompetent; then he saw younger clerks who had more zest in their work, promoted over him. He became sour. That was the last stage. His usefulness was over. I have observed this melancholy decline in the lives of so many men in so many occupations that I have come to the conclusion that the surest road to failure is to do things mechanically. There are many teachers in schools and colleges who seem duller than the dullest of their pupils; they go through the motions of teaching, but they are as impersonal as a telephone.

他的脸色庄严而虔诚，就像是在向我透露他的信仰中的奥秘似的我对他远远超过了对袜子的兴趣我吃惊地打量着他"我的朋友，"我说，"如果你能这样保持下去，如果这热情并不仅仅缘于新奇，缘于找到份新工作，如果你能日复一日地保持这种热心和激情，不出十年，全美的每一双袜子都将是从你手中卖出去的"我对他推销时的自豪与欣喜所感到的诧异，读者诸君当不难理解在很多店铺，顾客不得不等待有人来招呼当终于有个售货员肯屈尊理你，那样子又让你感觉像是打扰了他他不是陷于讨厌被人搅扰的深思之中，就是和女售货员嬉戏调笑；而你不适时的插入打断了他们的亲昵，为此你感觉好像需要道歉似的他显示出对你和他拿着工资去卖的东西毫无兴趣然而，就是这样一个如此冷漠的售货员，或许当初也是满怀希望和热情开始工作的天天枯燥乏味的苦差事令他不堪忍受，新鲜感磨去了，惟一的乐趣只能在工作之外找到他成了一个机械的没有干劲的售货员机械呆板之后便是笨拙无能随后，看到比他年轻工作热情比他高的售货员得到了提拔，在他之上，他于是变得烦躁刻薄此时便到了他职业生涯的最后阶段他不再有用了我观察到，很多职业中的太多人在人生道路上都有这种可悲的堕落由此我得出结论：机械地应付差事是离失败最近的路大中小学里的许多教师，似乎比他们最最迟钝的学生还要呆滞；他们似乎也搞搞教学，却毫无人的感情，就如同一部电话机

Again she struggled with it, fighting him with her small, fine eyes, with the plush arrogance of a top dog, with her nascent transference to another man, with the accumulated resentment of years; she fought him with her money and her faith that her sister disliked him and was behind her now; with the thought of the new enemies he was making with his bitterness, with her quick guile against his wine-ing and dine-ing slowness, her health and beauty against his physical deterioration, her unscrupulousness against his moralities—for this inner battle she used even her weaknesses— fighting bravely and courageously with the old cans and crockery and bottles, empty receptacles of her expiated sins, outrages, mistakes.

她再次对他的才智进行反抗，用她细巧秀丽的眼睛，用一个优胜者极度的傲慢，用她刚萌生的移情别恋，用积累多年的怨愤同他较量；用她的金钱以及她相信她姐姐不喜欢他而支持她，用他因刻薄而招来新的对头这些想法同他较量；用她机敏的手段来对付他慢吞吞的饮酒吃饭；用她的健康和美丽来对付他身体的衰老；用她的肆无忌惮来对付他的道德信条——在这场内心的战斗中，她不惜以她的弱点为武器——犹如用破旧的瓶瓶罐罐，她用她已经受到惩罚的罪过、劣迹和错误来做勇敢无畏的抗击。

Pure vitriol spilled from the pens of my critics,but I see no reason to revise my central hypothesis,which is based on the records of the day:that Hitler grasped quite early on that antisemitism would be a powerful vote-catching force in Germany;that he had no compunction against riding that evil steed right up to the portals of the chancellery in 1933;but that once inside and in power,he dismounted and paid only lip service to that part of his Party creed.

纯粹的刻薄话从批评家的笔下溢出，但是我仍未看到有任何必要来修订我的核心理论，因为这是基于当时的记录所得来的：希特勒很早就清楚，反犹政策在德国将会是获得大量选票的原动力；在1933年，他也并没有后悔靠着骑上这匹邪恶的马，犹如猎狐一般直冲向总理府的大门；可一旦进入总理府当权之后，他立即下马，把这个政策局限在口头的应酬和党的纲领的一部分。

Breath, muscle contraction of the buttocks; arch body, as far as possible to hold his head, right leg straight towards the ceiling (peg-leg knee in order to avoid muscle tension).

呼气，收缩臀部肌肉；拱起身体，尽量抬起头来，右腿伸直朝向天花板（膝微屈，以避免肌肉紧张）。
