12016年新课标高考英语备考

You are given many chances in life to choose to be a victim(受害者) or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place.“They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, then internalizing(内化)your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.
Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are persons who might like to control their lives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的)moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.
Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same problems, yet their experience of life is different worlds. Victims are easy to be in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others--and even themselves--to feel like victims, too. Creators choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire（鼓舞）not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to decide the direction of their lives.
In fact, all of us play the victim or the creator at different points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and go into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the sadness, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative strength in his life.
In every moment and every situation, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear goal to change the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.

【文章大意】本文叙述了创造者和受害者的两种处事状态，以及如何把受害者转变成创造者的方法。受害者和创造者都能决定自己的生活方向，都是生活的主人。受害者是因为太沉浸在痛苦中而创造者选择那些激励自己的事物。在每种情况和环境下，你可以通过设置明确的目的充实丰富的生活选择来改变受害者的那种思想。

参考译文
在生活中你有很多机会来选择成为牺牲品或创造者。当你选择成为牺牲品时，世界就是一个冰冷而充满艰难困苦的地方。他们做一切能给你带来痛苦与折磨的事。他们品质败坏，态度恶劣，只要有他们环绕在你身边，你的生活也会很糟糕。或许你会因为你的不顺而责怪自己从而内化这种牺牲。事实上，只要你觉得有必要责怪自己或他人，那么你的生活就可能一直是这种状态。
那些选择成为创造者的人看待生活的方式截然不同。他们知道有个性的人想要控制他们的生活，但是他们绝不让这些人妨碍到他们。他们知道他们自己有缺点，所以当他们失败时，他们从不责怪自己。不管发生什么事，他们都有选择的余地。他们相信他们在生命中每一个神圣时刻的舞动都是一份礼物，而暴风雨也只是自然生活的一部分，它会带来心灵和精神上成长所需的雨露。
牺牲品和创造者生活在相同的物质世界，面对着相同的物质现实，但是他们的生活体验却有着天壤之别。牺牲品沉溺于气愤、内疚和其他让他人甚至是他们自己都认为是牺牲品的情绪之中。而创造者则始终选择爱与鼓励以及其他不仅能够鼓励他们自己也能鼓励他们周围的人的品质。牺牲品和创造者都有选择决定他们自己生活方向（的权利）。
事实上在我们生活的许多方面我们都扮演着牺牲品或创造者的角色。当一个人失去一份工作或一份特殊关系时，他可能会觉得好像是世界末日，并数月或数年甚至是一生都沉浸在可怕的折磨之中。另一个有着相同经历的人可能会选择先体验悲伤，然后接受损失，不久在他的生活中又会涌现一股强大的创造力。
在任何一个时刻，任何一种情境下，你都可以选择过得更加充实、更加丰富。这需要你树立一个清晰的念头，那就是去转化内心受害者的角色、将一个强大的创造者的自我引入到生活中来。
