3、y encounter it, feel it, perhaps divy to figure out a meaning for it. 参考答案：步行是一件引人注目的事。如果你的老板对你说“到我办公室来”，你会觉得他要说正事或有什么指示。相反，如果老板过来对你说“跟我一起走走”，你也许会察觉到，接下来的时刻会有一种亲切感。他会向你吐露心声，甚至会表现出他脆弱的一面。行走本身是空洞的，我们是在行走的过程中将其充实。松鼠从我们的路上穿过，抓住一颗橡子，飞快窜到旁边的树上，这样的事情是不可能预先计划的。你只是偶遇，或许想给这场偶遇赋予某种含义。参考解析：本篇翻译生词较少，且句式简单。翻译时首先应

9、e world, but arts can enable us to understand ourselves and the relationship between man and the world.【分析】原文中逗号前后为两个独立的句子，翻译时应注意添加衔接词“but”。 81.In conclusion, because of their respective merits, both science and arts deserve our financial support.【分析】括号中的提示的“their respective merits”意为“各自的优点”，即原文中的各有
