很多人可能对伯克利抱有幻想,认为那里聚集了成群的知识分子,他们须发蓬乱,一边啜饮意大利热奶咖啡,一边讨论法国的存在主义哲学;几十年前的伯克利确实是这番景象,可如今的伯克利实际上是个贫民窟。

不纵情欢乐。你确实应该努力学习,但与那些既注重学习,又能尽情娱乐的人相比,终日埋头读书的人不知道要少学多少东西。 如果什么活动都参加,你就一事无成;如果什么活动都不参加,你就是个废物。别过度分散自己的精力,否则就算你没有露面,别人也不会惦记你。
体育课是大学的必修课,它会让你的身体得到锻炼。不过,大学并没有要求你合理安排饮食并在一定的时间内保持精力的旺盛。你会看到很多学生疲惫不堪,他们玩不好,也根本学不进去。 大学是一个新的开始,是一块没有记录的白板,或诸如此类的东西。忘记那些不愉快的东西,向前走,不要回头。在大学里,没人会知道你心里还背负着那个沉重的心理负担。

4 后来他面带愧色,跟我讲了这件事。他说,那篇评论见报后,
他最好的朋友拿着报纸来到他的办公室,把报纸往桌上一放,冲他严厉地摇摇头,无声地表明了他“不赞同这么做”的态度。 80年代初,我的一位密友对我说,如果我需要改善我与父母的关系的话,我现在就应该付诸行动,因为说不定哪一天,这样的就会就再也没有了。这位碰朋友的父亲在过马路的时候撞车身亡,母亲又在母亲节这天结束了自己的生命。
我走进父亲的卧室,他躺在那儿,思路依然清晰,身体却已经不能动弹。他用一种近乎欢快的语调说“我已经准备好了。”我心里明白,在过去的几年中,他一直与死亡抗争,脾气变得越来越暴躁。现在他已经无力反抗了。
就好像我们早先迈错了一步,于是彼此就再也合不上拍。现在,在他去世的前两天我们的步调一致起来,又能够彼此交流了。 父亲的死有着数不清的结局,我不断地领会其深刻的寓意。他
给死亡脱去神秘忧郁的面纱,让它的面目清晰热烈了起来。

我和安妮的境况虽然有天壤之别,可是我仍然强烈地感受到自己与这个口才出众的同龄女孩息息相通。她的困境令我备受煎熬,我想象着她躲在爸爸办公室上面的小阁楼里, 就“像笼中的金丝雀”, 在纳粹占领下的阿姆斯特丹艰难度日。
我看到自己12岁时的涂鸦渐渐变成了大人的成熟笔记,然后又变成了打字搞。信中使用了大量的感叹号和下划线,代表着感情的宣泻。

5 我是一个复杂的人,有很多不同的性格特征,这些性格特征有
时候看上去是自相矛盾的;不过,总体来说,我的性格可以分成三个显著不同担忧普通的类型,计学术,工作和社交三方面。相对于我的性格的每方面,我似乎都有一位特定的朋友。此外,我最要好的朋友被单独归为一类。
我的社交生活与工作生活和学术生活不同,它可以细化为不同的类型,每个细节都有专门的一群朋友。
与那些体现我性格其他方面的人一样,我社交圈中的朋友一般彼此不打交道,除非他们有着共同的兴趣。
把朋友聚群分让我感到内疚,但需要牢记的是,这些分类不是阻碍朋友间交往的永久障碍而是我用来组织思想的方式。我认为,拥有能补充完善总体人格的朋友固然很重要,拥有形形色色的朋友对个性成长也同样重要。

sentence pattern: too + adj. + to do sth. But in fact they are quite different in both sentence pattern and meaning.
