Thomas Woodrow Wilson 伍德羅·威爾遜

It is perfectly possible to organize the life of our colleges in such a way that students and teachers alike will take part in it; in such a way that a perfectly natural daily intercourse will be established between them; and it is only by such an organization that they can be given real vitality as places of serious training(1), be made communities in which youngsters will come fully to realize(2) how interesting intellectual work is, how vital, how important, how closely associated with(3) all modern achievement- only by such an organization that study can be made to seem part of life itself. Lectures often seem very formal and empty things; recitations generally prove very dull and nrewarding.

It is in conversation and natural intercourse with scholars chiefly that you find how lively knowledge is, how it ties into everything that is interesting and important, how intimate a part it is of everything that is interesting and important, how intimate a part it is of everything that is "practical'' and connected with the world. Men are not always made thoughtful by books; but they are generally made thoughtful by association with men who think.

中文譯文：

完全有可能把我們大學(xué)的生活組織得使學(xué)生和教師都參加在其中，使師生之間產(chǎn)生完全自然的日常交流;只有通過(guò)這樣的組織，才能使大學(xué)這種嚴(yán)格地培養(yǎng)人的地方真正充滿(mǎn)朝氣，才能使它們成為共同生活的團(tuán)體，年輕人在其中會(huì)充分認(rèn)識(shí)到腦力勞動(dòng)是多么有趣味，多么充滿(mǎn)活力，多么重要，并且與一切現(xiàn)代成就有著多么緊密的聯(lián)系--只有通過(guò)這樣的組織，才能使學(xué)習(xí)似乎成為生活本身的組成部分。課堂講授常常顯得很一本正經(jīng)而空洞無(wú)物，背誦往往非?？菰锒招跷ⅰＶ饕窃谂c學(xué)者們的談話(huà)和自然的交往中，你才能懂得知識(shí)是多么生氣蓬勃，知識(shí)與一切有趣和重要的事物是多么緊密相連，它是這些事物的不可分割的一部分，是一切'實(shí)用的"以及與當(dāng)今世界有關(guān)的事物密切相連的一部分。讀書(shū)并不一定能使人變得善于思考，但是，一般說(shuō)來(lái)，與善于思考的人們交往，就能使人好學(xué)善思。

英文注釋?zhuān)?/p>

(1)as places Of serious training：進(jìn)行嚴(yán)格訓(xùn)練的地方。用as引出的這個(gè)詞組用來(lái)進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明前面的主語(yǔ)they(指colleges)。

(2)come fully tO realize;(逐漸)充分認(rèn)識(shí)到。

(3)how closely associated with…：與……多么緊密聯(lián)系。此處associated為過(guò)去分詞，how closely associated with all modern achievement與how vital， how important并列，用來(lái)補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明前面的how interesting intellectual work is, 它們后面可以看作都各自省略了不起intellectual work is.
