Americans are too self-centered, too careerist, goes the criticism.

指责美国人太自私，事业心太强。

In Toronto, the careerist capital of Canada, when strangers meet, they don't say "How do you do?"

在多伦多这个追名逐利者之都，陌生人见面彼此并不说“你好吗？”

If everyone understands the reason, I am afraid there will not be a quest for fame and fortune while some careerist unscrupulous things.

如果人人都明白这个道理，恐怕便不会发生一些野心家为争夺名利而不择手段的事情了。

I always knew they were a nest of careerists, but recent experience shows that the careerist is now being replaced by worse: the ideologue rampant.

我向来知道他们是一窝野心家，不过最近的经验指出这群野心家被更糟糕的取代了：狂暴的空想家。

"People aren't getting raises, so managers are looking for other ways to reward high performers," says Penelope Trunk, author of the Brazen Careerist.

“人们没有加薪，所以经理正寻找其他方法奖励效率高的员工。”《厚脸皮的野心家》作者佩尼洛普•图朗克说。
