The post-everything generation

Frank Thomas is a sophomore at Princeton, majoring in literary theory. He hopes to become a human rights lawyer.

1 I never hoped to understand the nature of my generation or how American colleges are changing by going to Lit Theory classes. This is the class where you look cool, a bit sleepy from too many late nights and wearing a T-shirt with some ironic comment such as "Been there, done that and yes, this IS the T-shirt". That's how I spent my time on the course, struggling through difficult subjects like gender theory and

post-colonialism, and at the same time checking my iPod for something good to listen to. But when I started to study postmodernism, something clicked and made me sit up and take a fresh look at college life.

2 So what is postmodernism? Hard to say, almost by definition it can't be defined ... it's just kind of negative and against everything that came before it. And that makes it difficult to see what it is. The term was first used in 1949, but no one has yet decided what postmodern attitudes mean for the future of culture or society. Yet for me, it made me curious, because "postmodern" seemed to describe my cool, sleepy and ironic, T-shirt wearing friends.

3 We're "post" in so many ways, post-Cold War, post-industrial, post-baby boom, post-9/11. We're a generation that comes from what has been called the short century (1914—1989), at the end of a century of war and revolution

which changed civilizations, overthrew repressive governments, and left us with extraordinary opportunities and privilege, more than any generation before.

4 And yet what do we do? Do we revolt and rebel, like all students of generations before? Do we take to the streets and chant, "We're not leaving until we see change"? No, we do the opposite, we go to war, and we don't ask why, we give up our civil liberties, and we watch death and destruction on the evening news every day.

5 At college, we sign petitions, join organizations, sign up for mailing lists, wear our Live Strong bracelets, and watch Live Aid and Live Earth on the television—go to the concerts

even, if we can get the tickets. But what do we stand for? Like a true postmodern generation, we have no way to describe our political commitment, we have no inspirational characters, we have no philosophy, we have no direction or theme. We're only defined by what came before us, we're the generation of the Che Guevara T-shirt.

6 It's a movement which appears to encourage individuals to assert themselves collectively. It seems to be waiting for the revolution. And as young people, we're expected to be angry because that's what young people do.

7 But how do we rebel against our parents' generation which is nostalgic for revolution? How do we rebel against parents who sometimes want revolution more than we do? We don't. We rebel by not rebelling.

8 The real energy is not on the campus, it's on the Internet. It provides us with a developing opportunity to communicate ideas and frustrations. We don't do demonstrations any more, we go to chat rooms, instead of going onto the streets.

9 The American college as we used to know it is coming to an end. To my generation, radicalism is associated with al-Qaeda, not the Weathermen. "Campus takeover" sounds less like Berkeley 1968, more like Virginia Tech 2007. The resonance of the words belongs to another era and doesn't reflect the realities of today.

10 But the technological revolution is just as real and just as profound as the revolution of the 1960s—it's just not as

obvious. It's work in progress, but it's there. Perhaps when our parents stop pointing out everything they were and everything we're not, maybe they'll see that the

post-everything generation is speaking a language which makes sense. We're writing the revolution, and we're using our own words to do so.

后一切的一代 弗兰克?托马斯是普林斯顿大学二年级学生，

主修文学理论专业。 他希望当人权律师。

我从没指望通过上文学理论课来了解我这一代人的特征，或

了解美国大学在如何变化。 这门课是让你在课堂上扮酷的——带着

一丝熬夜太多的困劲儿，穿着一件T恤衫，上面印着“去过那儿，干

过那事儿，对，这就是那件T恤衫”或诸如此类带有揶揄意味的俏皮

话。 我是这样在课上消磨时间的:一边费力地听着性别理论和后殖

民主义这样艰深的话题，一边用我的iPod检索着好听的音乐。 可是

当我开始学习后现代主义的时候，我突然咔嗒一声开了窍。 我提起精神，开始重新审视大学生活。

那么，什么是后现代主义呢,很难说，从定义角度来说，后现代主义几乎是无法定义的??就是有点儿否定和反对先前的一切的意思。 这就让人很难看清它究竟指的是什么。 这一术语于1949年被首次使用，可是迄今为止还没有人能断定，对于文化或社会的未来，后现代态度究竟意味着什么。 但对我来说，它令我感到好奇，因为后现代似乎说的正是我那些酷劲十足、困兮兮的和冷嘲热讽、穿T恤衫的朋友们。

我们在很多方面都是“后”的:后冷战、后工业时代、后生育高峰、后9.11。 我们这一代人来自所谓的短世纪(1914-1989)，生于其后期。这个世纪充满了战争和革命，它改变了人类文明，推翻了强权政府，给我们留下了非同寻常的机会和特权。我们所得到的机会与特权比从前任何一代人都要多。

可是我们在干什么呢,像历代大学生那样去造反、叛逆吗,在街上一遍又一遍地高喊“不看到变化，我们决不离开”吗,不，我们做着相反的事情:我们去参战，根本不问为什么;我们放弃自己的公民自由权;我们每天在晚间新闻中观看破坏和死亡。

在大学里，我们在请愿书上签名，加入各种组织，把自己的名字添加到各种邮件通讯录中，戴为癌症研究义捐的标志腕带，观看电视转播的为非洲饥民募捐明星义演音乐会和为全球气候危机募捐明星义演音乐会——甚至去音乐会现场，假如能搞到票的话。 可是我们代表什么呢,就像真正的后现代一代那样，我们无法描述我们的政治抱负，我们没有可以激发灵感、鼓舞斗志的领袖人物，我们没有哲学，我们没有方向或主题。 我们只是被我们之前的一切所定义，我们是穿切?格瓦拉T恤衫的一代。

这是一场运动，好像是鼓励个人集体地表现自我，似乎是在

等待革命。 作为年轻人，人们期待我们愤怒，因为那是年轻人的正

常行为。

但是，我们如何反叛怀念革命的父母一代,我们如何去反叛

有时候比我们更想闹革命的父母,我们不反叛。 不反叛就是我们的

反叛。

我们真正的精力不是放在校园里，而是放在互联网上。 它给

我们提供了一个不断发展的交流思想和受挫感的机会。 我们不再游

行示威;我们不再到街上去，我们去聊天室。

我们以往所知的美国大学即将终结。 对我这一代人来说，与

激进主义相关的是“基地”组织，而不是“气象员”组织。 “校园

接管”听起来不大像1968年的伯克利分校，更像2007年的弗吉尼亚

州理工学院。 歌词的寓意则属于另一个时代，并不反映当今的现实。

可是，科技革命就像20世纪60年代的革命一样真实而深刻

——只是不那么明显而已。 它是正在推进中的未完成的事业，但它

实实在在地存在。 也许等到我们的父母不再说他们样样都好而我们

一无是处时，他们或许会明白，后一切的一代说的话也有一定的意义。

我们在书写革命，我们在用自己的语言书写革命。

Language points

1. The post-everything generation (Title)

Post- is a prefix meaning "after or later than". For example,

post-Cold War refers to the period after the unfriendly

relations that existed between the then Soviet Union and the

United States (1945–1990). Expressions formed with the prefix

in the passage include: post-colonialism, postmodern, postmodernism, post-industrial, post-baby boom, post-9/11. An irony in the title, The post-everything generation, is that it means after all these "posts": post-post.

2. "Been there, done that and yes, this IS the T-shirt." (Para 1)

This is a comment on T-shirt culture among students: Many students wear T-shirts with words or slogans as a way to proclaim where they have been (places like London, the Amazon Rainforest or the North Pole) or things that they have done (achievements like "I finished the London Marathon" or "I climbed the Great Wall"). However, this one makes an ironic comment on such slogans, with "Been there" (somewhere, anywhere or everywhere), "Done that" (done something, anything or everything), "and yes" (believe it or not, but I can confirm it), "this IS the T-shirt" (capitals to emphasize that this really is the T-shirt souvenir).

3. ? something clicked ? (Para 1)

If something clicks, it means that you suddenly understand it.

4. ? what has been called the short century (1914–1989) ? (Para 3)

This is a reference to the British Marxist historian Eric Hobsbawm's book, The Age of Extremes (1994) which describes the years 1914–1989 as "the short century" (1798–1914 was "the

long nineteenth century"). The short 20th century in this analysis includes the First World War, the Russian Revolution, the Great Depression and the collapse of the international economy, the Second World War, the period of decolonization, and the Cold War.

5. ? we're the generation of the Che Guevara T-shirt. (Para

5)

The Che Guevara T-shirt came from a photo taken in 1960 by Alberto Korba in Cuba. He called the photo "A heroic fighter, angry and sad". This was redesigned for a poster by Jim Fitzpatrick in the late 1960s and then made into a T-shirt design. Korba and Fitzpatrick deliberately did not copyright their work because they wanted the image to spread easily in a time of rebellion and revolution. The Che Guevara T-shirt image was popular because many people wanted change and it was variously interpreted: from anticapitalist to anti-war, from armed struggle and indigenous revolution to anti-globalization.

6. "Campus takeover" sounds less like Berkeley 1968 ? (Para 9)

In 1968 students in a number of university campuses in the US demonstrated against racism and the Vietnam War. They wanted to find a public voice through participation, so they protested in non-violent ways through "walk-outs" (leaving classes), "sit-ins" (sitting in buildings and refusing to leave), and "take-overs" (occupying buildings for days). Police eventually removed the students, in some cases with violence. The

"take-overs" shocked many Americans and led to some social changes.

7. It's work in progress, but it's there. (Para 10)

Work in progress means that something is developing or moving forward but it is not finished or completed yet. Here it means technological revolution is indeed in progress.

8. Perhaps when our parents stop pointing out everything they were and everything we're not ? (Para 10)

The writer believes that the previous generation of his parents who were students in the late 1960s or 1970s keep pointing out what they were in their time contrasted with what the present generation is not. That is, the parents were committed to revolution or change while their children are not.

College just isn't special any more1 "If you can remember anything about the 1960s, you weren't really there," so the saying goes. It may be true for those who spent their college years in a haze of marijuana smoke. But there is one thing everyone remembers about the 1960s: Going to college was the most exciting and stimulating experience of your life.

2 In the 1960s, California's colleges and universities had

transformed the state into the world's seventh largest economy. However, Berkeley, the University of California's main campus, was also well-known for its student demonstrations and strikes, and its atmosphere of political radicalism. When Ronald Reagan ran for office as governor of California in 1966, he asked if Californians would allow "a great university to be brought to its knees by a noisy, dissident minority". The liberals replied that it was the ability to tolerate noisy, dissident minorities which made universities great.

3 On university campuses in Europe, mass socialist or communist movements gave rise to increasingly violent clashes between the establishment and the college students, with their new and passionate commitment to freedom and justice. Much of the protest was about the Vietnam War. But in France, the students of the Sorbonne in Paris managed to form an alliance with the trade unions and to launch a general strike, which ultimately brought about the resignation of President de Gaulle.

4 It wasn't just the activism that characterized student life in the 1960s. Everywhere, going to college meant your first taste of real freedom, of late nights in the dorm or in the Junior Common Room, discussing the meaning of life. You used to have to go to college to read your first forbidden book, see your first indie film, or find someone who shared your passion for Jimi Hendrix or Lenny Bruce. It was a moment of unimaginable freedom, the most liberating in your life.

5 But where's the passion today? What's the matter with college? These days political, social and creative awakening

seems to happen not because of college, but in spite of it. Of course, it's true that higher education is still important. For example, in the UK, Prime Minister Blair was close to achieving his aim of getting 50 per cent of all under thirties into college by 2010 (even though a cynic would say that this was to keep them off the unemployment statistics). Yet college education is no longer a topic of great national importance. Today, college is seen as a kind of small town from which people are keen to escape. Some people drop out, but the most apathetic stay the course because it's too much effort to leave.

6 Instead of the heady atmosphere of freedom which students in the 1960s discovered, students today are much more serious. The British Council has recently done research into the factors which help international students decide where to study. In descending order these are: quality of courses, employability prospects, affordability, personal security issues, lifestyle, and accessibility. College has become a means to an end, an opportunity to increase one's chances on the employment market, and not an end in itself, which gives you the chance to imagine, just for a short while, that you can change the world.

7 The gap between childhood and college has shrunk, and so has the gap between college and the real world. One of the reasons may be financial. In an uncertain world, many children rely on their parents' support much longer than they used to. Students leaving university in the 21st century simply cannot afford to set up their own home because it's too expensive. Another possible reason is the communications revolution. Gone

are the days when a son or daughter rang home once or twice a term. Today students are umbilically linked to their parents by their cell phones. And as for finding like-minded friends to share a passion for obscure literature or music, well, we have the Internet and chat rooms to help us do that.

8 "Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive,

9 But to be young was very heaven!"

10 Wordsworth may have written these lines about the French Revolution, but they were also true for the students of the 1960s. So why aren't they true for the students of today?

大学已经不再特别了 有这么一种说法:“要是你能记得20

世纪60年代的任何事情，你就没有真正经历过那段岁月。” 对于在

大麻烟雾中度过大学时光的那些人，这话可能是真的。 但是，20世

纪60年代有一件事人人都记得，那就是:上大学是你一生中最激动

人心、最刺激的经历。

20世纪60年代，加州的高校把本州变成了世界第七大经济

实体。 然而，加州大学的主校园伯克利分校也以学生示威、罢课以

及激进的政治氛围而著名。 1966年，罗纳德?里根竞选加州州长，

他问加州是否允许“一所伟大的大学被喧闹的、唱反调的少数人征

服。” 自由派人士回答说，大学之所以伟大正是因为它们有能力容

忍喧闹的、唱反调的少数人。

在欧洲的大学校园里，大学生以新的姿态和激情投入到争取

自由和正义的事业中去，大规模的社会主义或共产主义运动引发了他

们与当权者之间日益升级的暴力冲突。 许多抗议是针对越南战争的。 可是在法国，巴黎大学的学生与工会联盟，发动了一场大罢工，最终导致戴高乐总统辞职。

20世纪60年代大学生活的特点并不仅仅是激进的行动。 不论在什么地方，上大学都意味着你初次品尝真正自由的滋味，初次品尝深更半夜在宿舍或学生活动室里讨论人生意义的滋味。 你往往得上了大学才能阅读你的第一本禁书，看你的第一部独立影人电影，或者找到和你一样痴迷吉米?亨德里克斯或兰尼?布鲁斯的志同道合者。 那是一段难以想象的自由时光，你一生中最无拘无束的时光。

可如今那份激情哪儿去了,大学怎么了,现在，政治、社会和创造意识的觉醒似乎不是凭借大学的助力，而是冲破其阻力才发生的。 当然，一点不假，高等教育仍然重要。 例如，在英国，布莱尔首相几乎实现了到2010年让50,的30岁以下的人上大学的目标(即使愤世嫉俗的人会说，这是要把他们排除在失业统计数据之外)。 不过，大学教育已不再是全民重视的话题了。 如今，大学被视为人们急于逃离的一种小城镇。 有些人辍学，但大多数已经有些麻木，还是坚持混到毕业，因为离开学校实在是太费事了。

没有了20世纪60年代大学生所发现的令人头脑发热的自由气氛，如今的大学生要严肃得多。 英国文化协会最近做了一项调查，研究外国留学生在决定上哪所大学时所考虑的因素。 这些因素从高到低依次是:课程质量、就业前景、学费负担、人身安全问题、生活方式，以及各种便利。 大学已变成实现目的的手段，是在就业市场上增加就业几率的一个机会，上大学本身不再是目的，不再是给你提供一个机会，让你暂时想象一下:你能够改变世界。

童年与大学之间的距离已缩小了，大学与现实世界之间的距离也缩小了。 其中的一个原因可能和经济有关。 在一个没有保障的

世界里，现在的许多孩子依赖父母资助的时间比以前的孩子更长。 21

世纪的学生大学毕业后根本无法自立门户，因为那太昂贵了。 另一

个可能的原因是通讯革命。 儿子或女儿每学期往家里打一两回电话

的日子一去不复返了。 如今，大学生通过手机与父母保持着脐带式

联系。 至于寻找痴迷无名文学或音乐的同道好友，没问题，我们有

互联网和聊天室来帮助我们做到这一点。

“幸福啊，活在那个黎明之中，

年轻更是如进天堂～”

华兹华斯的诗句说的可能是法国大革命，但是对于20世纪

60年代的大学生而言，这样的诗句同样真实生动。 可是为什么对于

如今的大学生来说，它们就不真实了呢,

Language points

1. "If you can remember anything about the 1960s, you weren't really there" ? (Para 1)

This saying makes a joking comment about these years: This was a time in the West when many young people took drugs (like cocaine, marijuana and LSD), so they were there and didn't really remember much of what happened (because of the drugs, they were "in a haze of marijuana smoke"). If someone does remember, they weren't really there—they must have been

somewhere else, without drugs.

2. In the 1960s, California's colleges and universities had transformed the state into the world's seventh largest economy. (Para 2)

The University of California sees itself as the link between education and the economy in California and has been recognized as a very significant factor for many years. The Californian economy includes Hollywood (entertainment), Los Angeles (tourism), the Central Valley (agriculture: California is the world's fifth largest supplier of food and agricultural products), Silicon Valley (computers, high technology) and wine production. Different tables (2002–2008) put California

as between the world's seventh to tenth largest economies, roughly that of Spain or Italy. This state is responsible for 13% of the US' gross domestic product (GDP) but it experienced a severe economic downturn in 2008. Still, industry and manufacturing related to Internet activities have been developing to balance agricultural output.

3. Today students are umbilically linked to their parents ? (Para 7)

Simply it means students are closely and tightly linked to their parents.

4. obscure literature or music (Para 7)

These are works which are not well–known or hardly known, and

perhaps difficult to understand. The writer is saying that in the 1960s students went to college to find friends with similar interests, tastes or opinions to discuss such works, but now in the communications revolution such discussions can be held electronically.

5. "Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive,

But to be young was very heaven!" (Paras 8–9)

The major English romantic poet, William Wordsworth (1770–1850) wrote these words about the early days (the "dawn") of the French Revolution. He had lived in France and was impressed by the Revolution but on his return to England he found that many people who had supported it changed their minds when they saw the massacres (killings) that happened later. These words try to catch the spirit of the enthusiasts: It was complete happiness ("bliss") to be alive in the Revolution, but to be young was even better. It was perfect, like in paradise ("very heaven").

关于暑期的英语作文:大学生暑假英语作文

Compared with over 100 days, exhausting school life, summer

holiday is definitely a golden time for relaxation entertainment. We can set aside the studies, lock away the textbooks, forget everything about school,greet the new life with our arms open up. During the two

months, loose, we enjoy ourselves thoroughly, sleeping till when the sun is high in the sky, playing computer night day, watching TV as long as we want to,traveling around like a tramp. Time rolls by,it is not until at the end of the holiday that we suddenly find our home assignment remaining blank sheets of paper. Then we go mad,devote the last days to fulfilling the homework.

The same summer holidays pass year after year,year after year, we regret when they come to an end. We regret having wasted so time on recreations, instead of our lessons,regret having worn away our 8tth in trifles.

Although it was still the case this summer, I dare say this was the

most fruitful holiday I had ever spent. Yes, the summer holiday I enjoyed most is this year,s.

At the very beginning of the holiday, our head teacher instructed us to make the most of the summer coming up,then turn ourselves into bookworms. I took heart on hearing it,at once mapped out a long list of hundreds of tasks I was going to perform. I was even in higher spirits in the first days of the summer, dreaming that I stuck to the whole schedule became a super girl the next semester. But my ambition didn,t stand the test of time. It was a few days later that my

attention was continually attracted by the Internet,

novels,shopping malls. Time flew surprisingly fast. When the vacation was already over, I realized in astonishment despair that I had acted on a half of my plan.

However, I am now consoling myself with the thought that it is human nature to have a rest after a long term,s study; hence it is

not realistic to keep working hard, even though the horrible Senior 3 was around the corner. Therefore, I am satisfied. I am satisfied with my daily routine in which I spent an average 9 hours in sleeping, 2 hours in eating, 2 hours in surfing the Internet, 6 hours in doing some trivial things which I couldn,t even remember,the other

5 hours in studying. After all, I have done my possible. What is more,

I did have a precious pause between the intense school days,seized the last

chance to relax in my senior life. So, this was a holiday combined with rest work, wasn,t it?

After the challenging College Entrance Examination, my anticipated summer holiday has begun. I will have a long winter holiday for almost three month. But I have already planned for it. Firstly, I will have a good rest at home and spend some time with my parents. I studied at school before, so I don’t have much time to

company them. And then, I want to take a part-time job. I have graduated from senior school, and I think that a part-time job can help me being independent. I hope what I learn in school will be helpful to my new job. After earning some money, I want to have an after-graduation trip that I have been dreaming of for a very long time. My first choice is Xiamen, which is an attractive city. When the trip ends, it’s time for the college.

紧张的高考过后，我期待已久的暑假终于开始了。我将会有一

It's July now,and summer vacation is coming.Most of us are on

vacation.And we all make a plan for summer vacation.I arrange it in order to make it meaningful and diverse.Of course,I'll finish my homework,take exercises every morning and a walk after dinner.Besides these,I'd like to learn how to cook meals,for I'm mature gradually and must be independent and no longer just rely on parents.What's more,I really expect to travel to Shanghai for World Expo.It's a precious opportunity to appreciate the get-together of different cultures and sciences.I wish I would have a fulfilled summer vacation.

我的暑假计划

现在是七月，暑假就要到了。我们大多数将要度过暑假。并且

我们都制定了暑假计划。我将把暑假安排得非常有意义。当然，

我每天要完成暑假作业，锻炼身体，饭后散步。而且，我要学会

如何做饭，因为我逐渐长大了，并且必须独立，不再依赖父母。

另外，我真的盼望到上海世博园去旅游，它是一个难得的机会来

观赏并学习不同文化的交融。我希望我将会有一个充实的暑假。

English, we could ask for help.Our teachers were so great that they could help us a lot.They were so active thatmake us acted as they did.I am happy to attend this activity.
