The Education Department's Office of Civil Rights is investigating a complaint that Harvard andPrinceton universities discriminates against Asian-Americans.
据报道，美国教育部民权办公室针对哈佛大学和普林斯顿大学在本科招生时歧视亚裔的投诉已展开调查。
The investigation began with a complaint from an Indian-American student in California whowas near the top of his high school class but was rejected at both schools.
调查始自一名来自加州的印度裔美国学生的投诉，该学生是某高中的优等生，但同时遭到两所学校的拒绝。
The civil rights agency doesn't discuss the substance of pending cases, so there's no tellingwhat evidence the Indian-American family might have to support a discrimination claim. Mere rejection — by either Harvard or Princeton — likely would not suffice, as both schoolsroutinely reject students with perfect SAT scores and grade-point averages.
美国教育部民权办公室并未讨论这桩待决案件的实质内容，因此这个印裔家庭支持歧视投诉的证据不得而知。如果仅仅是遭到学校拒绝，不管是哈佛还是普林斯顿，似乎不足以支持起诉，因为两所学校经常会拒绝SAT满分和GPA高分学生。
A Harvard spokesman told reporter Golden the institution does not discriminate. Asian-Americans make up 16 percent of Harvard undergraduates.
哈佛大学的一位发言人告诉记者戈登，哈佛大学并没有歧视亚裔申请人。亚裔学生占到了哈佛本科生的16%。
Asian-American students have challenged Ivy League admission policies before.
此前亚裔学生也曾挑战过常春藤盟校的招生政策。
Jian Li, a Chinese American, filed a civil rights complaint after Princeton rejected him in 2006. He'd scored a perfect 2400 on the SAT and graduated in the top 1 percent of his class, yet hadbeen rejected at several Ivies.
在2006年遭到普林斯顿拒绝后，华裔美国人李建(音)曾提起民事权利申诉。他在SAT考试中取得2400分满分，毕业时成绩排在全班前1%，但仍被多所常春藤盟校拒绝。
Golden reports that the agency received a fresh complaint in September targeting Yale, subsequently withdrawn.
戈登报道说，民权办公室去年9月曾收到过一起针对耶鲁大学的投诉，但随后投诉被撤销。
It's questionable, though, whether any student could prove discrimination by those schoolswithout access to stacks of admission data.
但值得怀疑的是，是不是所有学生都能在无法接触到大量入学申请数据的情况下证明自己遭到了歧视。
Harvard's admission rate has dipped to 6.2 percent, and Yale and Princeton aren't far behind. There is simply no guarantee of admission, no matter one's credentials.
哈佛大学的录取率已经降至6.2%，耶鲁大学和普林斯顿也高不出多少。没有什么能保证学生被录取，不管他有什么证书。
There's plenty of research to suggest, though, that Asian-American applicants must bringhigher test scores and GPAs than whites, Hispanics or Blacks to gain entry.
但大量调查表明，亚裔美国申请人的考试成绩、GPA分数要比欧美裔、西班牙裔和非裔高，才能被录取。
Golden cites a 2011 study of admissions at Duke: Asian-American enrollees scored 1457 on thereading and math sections of the SAT, compared to 1416 for whites, 1347 for Hispanics and 1275 for Blacks.
戈登引述了2011年杜克大学的一项入学调查，亚裔美国入学者SAT考试的阅读和数学成绩平均为1457分，而欧美裔为1416分，西班牙裔1347分，非裔1275分。

Tiger Mother
虎妈：望子成龙型
The traditional Chinese way of supporting and pushing the child to realise his full potential. Tiger moms demand perfect grades because they believe that their children can get them. Theyalso believe that they know what is best for their children and therefore override all of theirchildren's own desires and preferences. For them, the best way to protect their children is bypreparing them for the future, letting them see what they're capable of, and arming them withskills and work habits.
“虎妈”们的做法接近传统的中国式教育，即鼓励甚至逼迫她们的孩子充分发挥潜能。她们会要求自己的孩子表现完美，因为她们相信孩子们做得到。她们也相信自己知道对孩子来说什么才是最好的，因此往往无视孩子们自己的想法和愿望。对“虎妈”们来说，保护孩子的最好方式就是让他们对未来做好充足的准备，让他们明白自己的能力，并且掌握各种技能和养成良好的习惯。
Chooper Mother/Helicopter Mother
直升机妈：无微不至型
The anxious Chopper/Helicopter Mom hovers around her children 24/7, whether they are athome or in school. She storms into the principal's office when her children didn't get goodgrades, involves in all school activities, hires party planners for her toddler's 3rd birthday party, and protects them from all dangers.
焦虑过度的“直升机妈”一天24小时围着孩子转，不管孩子们是在家还是在学校。她会为了孩子没考好而怒气冲冲地找校长对质，会参与学校里的一切活动，甚至会为了3岁小孩的生日聚会雇佣专门的聚会策划人员，总之，就是要保护孩子们远离一切危险。
Free-range Mother
自由放养妈：撒手不管型
The casual Free-range Mom lets her children breathe, explore life at their own pace, makethings instead of buying the best...you get the picture. Some free-range moms are a bit toolaid-back, others may argue.
轻松悠闲的“自由放养妈”让她的孩子们自由成长，按照自己的节奏探索生活，自己DIY而不是去买最好的……总之，你们都懂的了。但是也有人担心，某些“自由放养妈”未免太懒散了一些。
