　　Prevailing wisdom always has us use teamwork as much as possible to face challenges head-on. The theory is that working in teams—especially those with different skillsets and backgrounds—sparks innovation， 1 flexibility，and leads to better outcomes. However， recent research suggests that maximizing teamwork often fails to 2 the results we expect ; in fact， in some cases， it 3 them.

　　The reality is that productive teamwork and collaboration are hard to 4 . Bringing together people with 5 expertise can potentially stall rather than 6 innovation， especially when 7 to an urgent need. Not to mention the larger， structural 8 that often leave team members jockeying for positions， making power grabs， and withholding information to protect their turf.

　　This is not to say we should throw teamwork 9 the window entirely. 10 ， we believe a change in mindset about how to best 11 it is needed to achieve the flexibility and resilience.

　　12 maximizing teamwork， research on what distinguishes flexible organizations suggests that we need to rightsize it. This means 13 what form and how much teamwork is needed at each stage of a project to get it done efficiently and effectively. Rightsizing teamwork requires 14 selecting the right people to contribute，at the right time.

　　15 this approach may 16 seem in conflict with goals of inclusivity， consideration， and respect—when done right， it can improve those things. 17 others when they are needed， 18 by default， is actually more respectful of the many people who are 19 from project overload and burnout. Rightsizing is not about minimizing inclusion. It’s about changing “teamwork” from a buzzword to an 20 practice that creates seamless companywide connections.

　　参考答案：D[问答题]The universities are schools of education， and schools of research. (46) But the primary reason for their existence is not to be found either in the mere knowledge conveyed to the students or in the mere opportunities for research offered to the members of the faculty. Both these functions could be performed at a cheaper rate， apart from these very expensive institutions. Books are cheap， and the system of apprenticeship is well understood. So far as the mere imparting of information is concerned， no university has had any justification for existence since the popularisation of printing in the fifteenth century.

　　(47) The justification for a university is that it preserves the connection between knowledge and the enthusiasm of life， by uniting the young and the old in the imaginative consideration of learning. The university imparts information， but it imparts it imaginatively. This atmosphere of excitement， arising from imaginative consideration， transforms knowledge. A fact is no longer a bare fact： it is invested with all its possibilities. Imagination is not to be divorced from the facts： it is a way of illuminating the facts. (48) It works by drawing out the general principles which apply to the facts， and then by an intellectual survey of alternative possibilities which are consistent with those principles. It enables men to construct an intellectual vision of a new world， and it preserves the enthusiasm of life by the suggestion of satisfying purposes.

　　Youth is imaginative， and if the imagination is strengthened by discipline， this energy of imagination can in great measure be preserved through life. The initial discipline of imagination in its period of youthful vigour requires that there be no responsibility for immediate action. (49) The habit of unbiased thought， by means of which the ideal variety of examples is discerned in its derivation from general principles， cannot be acquired when there is the daily task of maintaining a concrete organisation. You must be free to think rightly and wrongly， and free to appreciate the variousness of the universe undisturbed by its perils.

　　The universities have trained the intellectual pioneers of our civilization—the priests， the lawyers， the statesmen，the doctors， the men of science， and the men of letters. They have been the home of ideals which lead men to confront the confusion of their present times. (50) The way in which a university should function in the preparation for an intellectual career， is by promoting the imaginative consideration of the various general principles underlying that career. Hence， instead of a tedious task issuing in a blind rule of thumb， the properly trained man has some hope of obtaining an imagination disciplined by detailed facts and by necessary habits. Thus，the proper function of a university is the imaginative acquisition of knowledge. A university is imaginative or it is nothing—at least nothing useful.参考答案：

　　但是大学存在的主要理由既不体现于单纯向学生传授知识，也不体现于单纯向教员提供研究机会。

　　【解析】①本句主干为 But the primary reason...is not to be found either in A or in B，其中，not...either...or... 直接译为“既不……也不……”;to be found in字面义是“在……中被找到”，由于其后内容较长，且汉语多使用主动态表达，故翻译时调整为“体现于”。②convey意为“传递;传送”，翻译时根据其逻辑宾语knowledge可调整为“传授/传播”;faculty常见义为“天赋;技能”“高校院系”“高校全体教师”，此处根据语境及其与students的呼应可知，它指向的是“教师”，故members of the faculty译为“教员”。③mere“仅仅的”在翻译时一般处理成状语“单纯;仅仅;只”，因此名词短语the mere knowledge conveyed... /the mere opportunities for research offered...在翻译时需要转化为动宾短语“单纯传授知识/单纯提供研究机会”。

　　47.

　　大学存在的理由在于，它将青年人和老年人在充满想象力的学术思索中联合起来，维持了知识与生活热情之间的联结。

　　【解析】①that引导的表语从句中，方式状语by...在翻译时应提前，使译文呈现“做法—效果”的逻辑;而这样一来，“通过”的语义在译文整体结构“它……联合……维护了……”中已经体现出来，所以by 本身可以直接省译。②consideration意为“考虑，深思”，learning此处指高等院校中的“学术”而非简单的“学习”，因此the...consideration of learning译为“学术思索/思考”。

　　48.

　　它是这样起作用的：提炼出适用于事实的普遍原则，然后对符合这些原则的其他可能性展开智力上的全面考察。

　　【解析】①整句结构为It works by A and then by B，由于方式状语过长，所以翻译时在主句“它是这样起作用的”之后用冒号隔开，引出作用方式(work意为“奏效;产生预期的结果”)。②定语从句which apply to the facts 与 which are consistent with those principles 长度较短，所以直接译为定语“适用于事实的”“符合这些原则的”。③draw out字面义为“引出”，根据其宾语the general principles调整为“提炼”;alternative意为“供选择的”，这里修饰possibilities，指“除了用于推导出普遍原则之外的、同样符合这些原则的事实”，直接译为“其他”即可;survey在本语境下指“对各种可能性进行全面研究”，故译为 “全面考察”。

　　49.

　　如果每天都有维持具体组织的任务，那么公正思维的习惯就不可能养成，而正是依靠这种习惯，从普遍原则衍生出的、理想的丰富例证才能得到辨认。

　　【解析】①本句结构有一定理解难度，整体可分为三块：主句The habit...cannot be acquired、定语从句by means of which... principles和时间状语从句when...organisation;主句断定“习惯无法养成”，定语从句介绍“习惯的作用”，时间状语从句则明确“何种情况下习惯无法养成”，因此翻译时应按“时间状语从句→主句→定语从句”的顺序译出。②时间状语从句中，there be句型直译为“有……每日任务 (the daily task)”，为使句子通顺，可将定语daily转化为状语，使时间状语从句整体呈现为“如果每天都有……任务”。③定语从句中，主语the...variety of examples指向“例证多样性”，its derivation from general principles补充指出“例证多样性从何衍生而出”(即第48题所说“其他同样符合普遍原则的/自普遍原则衍生出的可能性”)，翻译时大可将这两部分相结合，并将中心词转为“例证”，继而补充修饰语“从普遍原则衍生出的(derivation from...)”“理想的(ideal)”“丰富(variety)”。

　　50.

　　大学为脑力劳动职业所起到的准备作用应该是促进对奠定这些职业基础的各种普遍原则进行富有想象力的思索。

　　【解析】①本句主语部分为The way后接一个in which引导的定语从句，而in the preparation for...则指明大学“起作用”的场景，整体可译为“大学在为脑力劳动职业做准备时，所起到的作用方式应该(是)”;可进一步调整并得到“大学为脑力劳动职业所起到的准备作用应该(是)”。②underlie(原文为现在分词underlying)意为“构成……的基础”，因此将后置定语underlying that career整体译为“奠定职业基础的”并提前。③原文的an intellectual career与that career在数量方面保持一致，翻译时也需贯彻这一原则，故将后者处理成“这些职业”。
