②人自孩提時(shí)代起，求學(xué)、謀職、戀愛(ài)、成家、立業(yè)、功名、財(cái)富……幾乎無(wú)時(shí)不在追求，而且總也不能滿(mǎn)足。

本句的并列結(jié)構(gòu)：求學(xué)、謀職、戀愛(ài)、成家、立業(yè)、功名、財(cái)富，翻譯為動(dòng)名詞結(jié)構(gòu)， 求學(xué)going to school, 謀職looking for a job, 戀愛(ài)falling in love, 成家getting married, 立業(yè)striving for success in career ；功名、財(cái)富可以合為一起翻譯為accumulating wealth,但也可以把功名翻譯出來(lái)，chasing official rank

參考譯文：Ever since childhood we have been pursuing, going to school, looking for a job, falling in love, getting married, and striving for success in career and accumulating wealth, but never have we seemed to be contented with ourselves.

注意譯文的最后一個(gè)分句but never have we倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)

③當(dāng)然事業(yè)上的進(jìn)取與物欲上的貪婪，是兩種截然不同的人生觀，或可說(shuō)是兩種內(nèi)涵迥異的苦樂(lè)觀。

截然不同的：意思就是不一樣的，翻譯為different即可，當(dāng)然加上entirely會(huì)更好。

人生觀：outlooks on life

迥異的intrinsically different如果不知道intrinsic（固有的，本質(zhì)的，內(nèi)在的）這個(gè)詞，可以用totally

參考譯文：However, striving for success in career and seeking material profits are two different outlooks on life or, if you will, two intrinsically different views on the definition of hardship and happiness.

④但有一點(diǎn)是共同的，即人生的道路并非平坦的康莊大道，事物的發(fā)展往往不以人的意志為轉(zhuǎn)移。

康莊大道：這里以“一帆風(fēng)順”的意思來(lái)翻譯：plain sailing，或者用其他意譯方法，表達(dá)出“順利”“沒(méi)有挫折”之類(lèi)的意思都可以。

參考譯文：But there is one thing that applies in either case, i.e. life is no plain sailing, and things, going and growing, are independent of man’s will.
