Sta ge FrightFall down as you come onstage. That’s an oddtrick. Not recommended. But it saved the pianist Vladimir Feltsman when he wasa teenager back in Moscow. The veteran cellist Mstislav Rostropovich trippedhim purposely to cure him of pre-performance panic,2 Mr. Feltsmansaid, “ All my fright was gone. I already fell. What else could happen?”Today, music schools are addressing the problem ofanxiety in classes that deal with performance techniques and careerpreparation. There are a variety of strategies that musicians can learn tofight stage fright and its symptoms: icy fingers, shaky limbs, racing heart,blank mind.3Teachers and psychologists offer wide-rangingadvice, from basics like learning pieces inside out,4 to mentaldiscipline, such as visualizi ng a performance and taking steps to relax. Don’tdeny that you’re jittery,they urge; some excitement is natural, even necessary for dynamicplaying. And play in public often, simply for the experience.Psychotherapist Diane Nichols suggests somestrategies f or the moments before performance, “Take two deep abdominalbreaths, open up your shoulders, then smile,’’ she says. “And not one of these‘please don’t kill me’ smiles. Then choose three friendly faces in theaudience, people you would communicate with andm ake music to, and make eyecontact with them.” She doesn’t want performers to think of the audience as ajudge.Extreme demands by mentors or parents are often atthe root of stage fright,says Dorothy Delay, awell-known violin teacher. She tells otherteachers to demand only what their students are able to achieve. When Lynn Harrell was 20,he became the principal cellist ofthe Cleverland Orchestra, and he suffered extreme stage fright. “There weretimes when I got so nervous I was sure the audience could see my chestresponding to the throbbing. It was just total panic. I came to a point where Ithought,‘ If I have to go through this to play music, I think I’m going to lookfor another job.”5 Recovery, he said, involved developinghumility-recognizing that whatever his talent, he was fallible,and that an imperfect concert wasnot a disaster.6It is not only young artists who suffer, ofcourse. The legendary pianist Vladimir Horowitz’s nerves were famous. The greattenor Franco Corelli is another example. “They had to push him on stage,”Soprano Renata Scotto recalled.Actually,success can make things worse. “In the beginning of your career,when you’re scared to death, nobody knows who you are, and they don’t have anyexpectations,” Soprano June Anderson said. “There’s less to lose. Later on, whenyou’re known, people are coming to see you, and they have certain expectations.You have a lot to lose.”Anderson added,“I never stop being nervous until I’ve sung my last note.”如何避免怯场上台就跌倒。

第十二篇The Enemy WithinAllergy has become more and more common over the last 30 years. Now one-third of us are affected by allergy at some point in our lives and half of these sufferers are children. In the UK, three million people suffer from asthma, and five per cent of children suffer from food allergy.Allergy is a reaction that occurs when the immune system has a strange and unnecessary reaction to a substance which is normally harmless, such as pollen or peanuts. ____1____ To defend your body against an attacker, the immune system remembers these dangerous micro-organisms and attacks them if it meets them again. This work is done by antibodies. The immune system in allergy sufferers makes antibodies against harmless substances, because it mistakenly believes them to be dangerous.An allergic reaction may not happen the first time a sufferer meets an allergen (the substance causing the reaction, such as pollen, milk or strawberries). Sometimes people can eat nuts for years and then suddenly become allergic to them. What has happened is that the immune system has now decided the substance is dangerous and has made an allergy antibody. This antibody then attaches itself to cells, which contain histamine. ____2____ As they do that, the surface of the cells is broken, and histamine is released. The histamine and other chemicals inflame the tissues. This leads to the symptoms of allergy, such as swelling, rashes, sneezing, sore eyes and breathlessness. Anaphylaxis is the most severe allergic reaction of all and is most often triggered by wasp or bee stings or peanuts. This must be treated immediately.____3____ Some people are born with the ability to make lots of allergy antibodies, and they are more likely to develop allergies and allergic disorders such as hay fever and asthma.____4____ We eat more processed foods, with a wide range of additives and colourings; more and more people have central heating and double glazing, making our houses warmer and less draughty-an ideal environment to breed the house dust mite.There may also be a link between allergies and antibiotics. At one time our immune systems were kept busy fighting off disease and trying to win the battle for health, but antibiotics have reduced the amount of work our immune systems have to do. Now experts think they may direct spare energy to harmless substances such as strawberries. ____5____A good deal of research is being devoted to finding a cure for allergies. Sufferers may be given medicine to control symptoms, and they may also be offered tests to find out what substances trigger an allergic reaction so that they can avoid contact with these in future.词汇:allergy n. 过敏,过敏症sufferer n. 患者,受害者asthma n. 哮喘substance n. 物质pollen n. 花粉micro-organism n. 微生物antibodies n. antibody的复数形式,意为抗体allergen n. 过敏源nut n. 坚果histamine n. 组织胺,组胺tissue n. 人体组织symptom n. 病症,征兆rash n. 疱疹sneezing n. 打喷嚏breathlessness n. 呼吸急促,气喘吁吁anaphylaxis n. 全身性过敏反应,过敏反应wasp n. 黄蜂sting n. 蟄,咬hayfever n. 枯草热,花粉病additives n. 添加剂,食品添加剂cure n. 治疗,解药注释:1.suffer from...忍受^的折磨2.be devoted to sth. ...全身心投入于^练习:A The immune system is there to protect the body against outside attackers, including viruses, bacteria and parasites.B In other words our immune systems have become over-sensitive.C Allergies run in families.D International differences have been associated with the number of individuals within a population have allergy.E When the antibodies meet the allergen the next time, they attempt to destroy it.F Experts believe more people have developed allergies because of changes in our lifestyle which have exposed us to more allergens.答案与题解:1.A 该是对机体免疫系统功能的介绍,而文中对免疫系统的首次提及是在该选项的上一句话,即描述过敏反应是免疫系统的活动,该选项故而可被视为是对上一句话的补充与说明。

第一篇Ford Abandons Electric Vehicles福特放弃电动汽车分析人士评论,福特汽车公司放弃电动汽年的举动有力地证明了这种技术是行不通的。
通用汽车公司和日本本田汽车公司早于1999年就停止了电池动力汽车的生产,转而开发燃料电池和电池内燃混合机,这对消费者更有吸引力。
福特宣布它现在也要做同样的尝试。
3年前,福特推出名为Think City的双排座汽车和Think或Think Neighbor系列高尔夫车,希望能销售5000辆汽车、10000高尔夫车。
但由于需求不足,截至2002年仅生产了大约1000辆汽车,售出的高尔夫车还不足1700辆。
“关键是我们认为电动车不能代表大众市场环保交通的未来”,福特欧洲区的Tim Holmes于周五说,“我们感觉自己对电力车已做了昀好的尝试。
”Think City系列的运行里程仅53英里,电池充电需6小时。
通用公司的EVI电力车也仅能运行100英里。
昂贵的电池也意味着电动汽车的造价比汽油动力车高出许多。
日本丰田产的RAV4EV系列电动车在美国的售价达42000美元,而同系列的汽油动力车仅售17000美元。
丰田和日产汽车公司是现在仅存的两大电动车制造商。
“应该说电池动力车已经获得了充分的机会。
福特现已转向电池内燃混合机开发项目,我们应据此评价他们的发展。
”Roger Higman,英国Friends of the Earth 组织的一位高级交通运动代表这样对《环保新闻》评论说。
日本本田和丰田公司推出的混合机汽车在过去几年取得了良好的销售业绩。
混合动力车比汽油机车运行里程更长,电池又可自行充电。
福特表示,他们认为这样的机车有助于达到美国新制订的车辆排放规定。
不过,这些规定究竟允许怎样的排放物现在还不十分清楚。
六月份通用和戴姆勒克莱斯勒公司赢得一项法庭裁决,可推迟两年执行一项加州法令,该法令要求汽车生产商在2003年前向该州提供10万辆零排放和其他低排放汽车。

一. An Introduction to Distillation蒸馏概述1. Petroleum refining is the separation of petroleum into fractions and the subsequent treating of these fractions to make them into petroleum products. Most petroleum products, including kerosenes, fuel oils, lubricating oils, and waxes, are fractions of petroleum that have been treated to remove undesirable components. Other products, for example, gasolines, aromatic solvents, and even some asphalts, are totally or partly synthetic in that they have compositions that are impossible to achieve by direct separation of these materials from crude petroleum. They result from chemical processes that change the molecular nature of selected portions of crude petroleum; in other words, they are the products of refining or they are refined products. 1.石油炼制即将石油分离成各种馏分,然后将这些馏分经过处理,制成各种石油产品。

梦想是什么?几个世纪以来,人们对他们的梦想的奇怪的事情。
一些心理学家说,这种夜间活动的想法没有特殊意义。
其他人,然而,认为梦是我们生活的重要组成部分。
事实上,许多专家认为,梦可以告诉我们对一个人的思想和感情。
近代以前,很多人认为梦包含来自上帝的信息。
这是只有在第二十世纪,人们开始研究的一种科学方法的梦想。
奥地利心理学家弗洛依德,西格蒙德,大概是为了研究梦的第一人科学。
在他最著名的书,梦的解析(1900),佛洛伊德写道,梦想一个人的意愿表达。
他认为,梦表达人们的感情,的思想,和恐惧,他们害怕在现实生活中的表达。
瑞士心理学家卡尔jung2也曾经是一名佛洛伊德。
荣,然而,有不同的知道梦想。
荣格认为,梦的目的是传达讯息给梦想家。
他认为,人们可以通过他们的梦想更多了解自己学习。
为例如,人梦想下降可以了解到他们有过高的自己的意见。
另一方面,那些梦想成为英雄可以学习,他们认为太少自己。
现代心理学家继续发展有关梦的理论。
例如,心理学家威廉Domhoff来自加利福尼亚大学,圣克鲁斯,认为梦是紧一个人的生活,思想和行为联系在一起。
犯罪,例如,可能的梦想犯罪。
多姆霍夫认为,有梦想和年龄之间的连接。
他的研究表明,孩子不梦想像成年人一样。
根据多姆霍夫,做梦是一种心理技巧,需要时间发展。
他还发现,梦和性别之间的联系。
他的研究表明,男人的梦和女人不同。
例如,在男人的梦想的人往往是其他人,和梦中经常涉及的战斗。
这不是女人的梦想成真。
3多姆霍夫发现这种性别从11世界各地的文化中人们的梦想差,包括现代和传统的。
梦可以帮助我们了解自己吗?心理学家继续尝试回答这个问题以不同的方式。
然而,有一件事他们同意这种说法:如果你的梦想是什么可怕的事发生,你不应该恐慌。
梦想可能是有意义的,但这并不意味着一些可怕的将实际发生的事件。
记住,梦中的世界是不是真的很重要世界。
音乐的生物学人类使用音乐作为一个功能强大的表达方式。
它也可能在爱中发挥重要的作用。

一. Shopping Around the Web网上购物1. A Saturday afternoon in mid-December: not a good time to be hanging around San Francisco's Union Square, the city's premier shopping district. Hundreds of people laden with purchases battle along the pavements, search despairingly for scarce taxis or struggle to get through Macy's doors. It is enough to put anybody off shopping for life. 1. 在十二月中旬的周六下午,去旧金山的主要商业区联合广场逛街可不是件轻松的事。
成百上千的人带着大大小小的购物袋拥挤在人行道上,有的在拼命地寻找着出租车,有的在尽力地挤出莫西商场的门口。
这种经历足以让所有人从此对购物望而却步。
2. But wait: surely Christmas shopping in l999 was different? After all, this is close to Silicon Valley, the center of the Internet revolution and the new economy, the land of the tieless billionaires who bought all their presents online at midnight the day after Thanksgiving. Yet the crowds in Union Square last December were as bad as ever. They seemed oblivious of a large billboard advertisement above their heads for one of the Bay Area's many s, which flashed the message: "Say Goodbye to the Mall." And they paid no attention to the advertisement on many of their shopping bags that pointed a way out of their predicament: "Online Shopping. No Experience Needed." 2.但是且慢,1999年的圣诞购物应该有所不同吧?毕竟靠近网络革命和新经济的中心棗硅谷。

职称英语(卫生类)新增文章译文及解析
Eat to LiveA meager diet may give you health and long life, but it’s not much fun — and it might not even be necessary. We may be able to hang on to most of that youthful vigor even if we don’t start to diet until old age. Stephen Spindler and his colleagues from the University of California at Riverside have found that some of an elderly mouse’s liver genes can be made to behave as they did when the mouse was young simply by limiting its food for four weeks. The genetic rejuvenation won’t reverse other damage caused by time for the mouse, but could help its liver metabolize drugs or get rid of toxins.Spindler’s team fed three mice a normal diet for their whole lives, and fed another three on half-rations3. Three more mice were switched from the normal diet to half-feed3 for a month when they were 34 months old — equivalent to about 70 human years.The researchers checked the activity of 11,000 genes from the mouse livers, and found that 46 changed with age in the normally fed mice. The changes were associated with things like inflammation and free radical production一probably bad news for mouse health. In the mice that had dieted all their lives,27 of those 46 genes continued to behave like young genes. But the most surprising finding was that the mice that only started dieting in old age also benefited from 70 per cent of these gene changes."This is the first indication that these effects kick in pretty quickly,”says Huber Warner from the National Institute on Aging near Washington D. C.No one yet knows if calorie restriction works in people as it does in mice, but Spindler is hopeful. “There’s attracting and tempting evidence out there that it will work,” he says.If it does work in people,there might be good reasons for rejuvenating the liver. As we get older, our bodies are less efficient at metabolizing drugs, for example. A brief period of time of dieting, says Spindler, could be enough to make sure a drug is effective.But Spindler isn’t sure the trade-off is worth it. “The mice get less disease, the y live longer, but they’re hungry,” he says. “Even seeing what a diet does, it’s still hard to go to a restaurant and say: ‘I can only eat half of that,. ”Spindler hopes we soon won’t need to diet at all. His company, Lifespan Genetics in California, is looking for drugs that have the effects of calorie restriction.练习:1. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?D We have to begin dieting since childhood.2. Why does the author mention an elderly mouse in paragraph 2?B To illustrate the effect of meager food on mice.3. What can be inferred about completely normally fed mice mentioned in the passage?D They are more likely to suffer from inflammation.4. According to the author, which of the following most interested the researchers?A The mice that started dieting in old age.5. According to the last two paragraphs, Spindler believes thatC dieting is not a good method to give us health and long life.第二十九篇“Don’t Drink Alone” Gets New MeaningIn what may be bad news for bars and pubs,a European research group has found that people drinking alcohol outside of meals have a significantly higher risk of cancer in the mouth and neck than do those taking their libations with food. Luigino Dal Maso and his colleagues studied the drinking patterns of 1,500 patients from four cancer studies2 and another 3,500 adults who had never had cancer.After the researchers accounted for the amount of alcohol consumed, they found that individuals who downed a significant share of their alcohol outside of meals3 faced at least a 50 to 80 percent risk of cancer in the oral cavity, pharynx, and esophagus, when compared with people who drank only at meals. Consuming alcohol without food also increased by at least 20 percent the likelihood of laryngeal4 cancer. “ Roughly 95 percent of cancers at these four sites5 traced to smoking or drinking6 by the study volunteers,”Dal Maso says. The discouraging news, his team reports, is that drinking with meals didn’t eliminate cancer risk at any of the sites.For their new analysis,the European scientists divided people in the study into four groups,based on how many drinks they reported having in an average week7. The lowest-intake group included people who averaged up to8 20 drinks 狂week. The highest group reported downing at least 56 servings of alcohol weekly for an average of eight or more per day.9 Cancer risks for the mouth and neck sites rose steadily with consumption even for people who reported drinking only withmeals. For instance, compared with people in the lowest-consumption group, participants who drank 21 to 34 alcohol servings a week at least doubled their cancer risk for all sites other than the larynx10. If people in these consumption groups took some of those drinks outside meals, those in the higher consumption group at least quadrupled their risk for oral cavity and esophageal cancers.People in the highest-consumption group who drank only with meals had 10 times the risk of oral cancer, 7 times the risk of pharyngeal cancer, and 16 times the risk of esophageal cancer compared with those who averaged 20 or fewer drinks a week with meals. In contrast, laryngeal cancer risk in the high-intake, with-meals-only group11 was only triple that12 in the low-intake consumers who drank with meals. “Alcohol can inflame tissues. Over time, that inflammation can trigger cancer. ”Dal Maso says. He suspects that food reduced cancer risk either by partially coating digestive-tract tissues or by scrubbing alcohol off those tissues. He speculates that the reason laryngeal risks were dramatically lower for all study participants traces to the tissue’s lower exposure to alcohol.1. Researchers have found that the risk of cancer in the mouth and neck is higher with peopleA who drink alcohol outside of mealsur2. Which of the following is NOT the conclusion made by the researchers about “drinking with meals”?C It increases by 20 percent the possibility of cancer in all sites.3. Approximately how many drinks do the lowest-intake group average per day?A 3 drinks.4. Which cancer risk is the lowest among all the four kinds of cancer mentioned in the passage?B Laryngeal cancer.5. According to the last paragraph, tissue’s lower exposure to alcoholD reduces the risk of laryngeal cancer.第三十九篇SaunaCeremonial bathing has existed for thousands of years and has many forms, one of which is the sauna. The Finns have perfected the steam bath,or sauna, which may be taken, usually in an enclosed room, by pouring water over hot rocks or as a dry heat bath. The Japanese, Greeks, Turks and Russians as well as Native Americans have forms of the sweat bath in their bathing rituals. Dry heat and steam baths had advocates in ancient Rome and' pre-Columbian Americans used sweat lodges.The earliest saunas were probably underground caves heated by a firethat naturally filled with smoke as chimney making was unknown at that time. A fire kept in a fire-pit would heat the rock walls of the cave. After reaching full heat, the smoke was let out of the cave and the stones would retain heat for several hours. A few people today say that the smoke sauna, “ savusauna”,is the only true sauna experience and that all saunas should have at least a background odor or smoke. Today most saunas use electric stoves, although gas and wood-burning stoves are available.Saunas are relaxing and stress relieving, Those with muscle aches or arthritis may find that the heat relaxes muscles and relieves pain and inflammation. Asthma patients find that the heat enlarges air passageways of the lung and facilitates breathing. Saunas do not cure the common cold but they may help to alleviate congestion arid speed recovery time. The body’s core temperature usually rises a 1-2 degrees while in the sauna, thus imitating a slight fever. The sauna could be considered to fol low the old saying “feed a cold,starve a fever' The regular use of a sauna may decrease the likelihood of getting a cold in the first place.Sauna is good for your skin as the blood flow to the skin increases and sweating occurs. Adults sweat about 2 lbs8 of water per hour on average in a sauna. A good sweat removes dirt and grime from pores and gives the skin a healthy glow. The loss in water weight is temporary as the body's physiological mechanisms will quickly restore proper volumes. The cardiovascular system9 gets a work out10 as the heart must pump harder and faster to move blood to the surface for heat exchange. Heart rate may increase from 72 beats per minute on average to 100-150 beats per minute.A normal heart can handle these stresses but those with heart trouble wishing to begin to use a sauna should seek a doctor's advice. The elderly and those with diabetes should check with their doctor prior to beginning to take saunas. Pregnant women should not take saunas, particularly in the first three months. Indeed, everyone just starting out should take short sessions11 at first to become accustomed to this type of bath.1. Ceremonial bathing _________.C) has various forms2. What is understood by some people to be the true sauna experience?B) Saunas with smoke.3. According to the third paragraph, saunas can do all of the following EXCEPT .D) curing asthma4. According to the fourth paragraph, sauna gives the skin a healthy glow because_________.A) pores are cleaned by sweat5. Who are advised not to take a sauna?D) All of the above.第二篇 A Biological ClockEvery living thing has what scientists call a biological clock that controls behavior. The biological clock tells _ plants when to form flowers and when the flowers should open. It tells _ insects _ when to leave the protective cocoons and fly away,and it tells animals and human beings when to eat, sleep and wake.Events outside the plant and animal _ affect the actions of some biological clocks. Scientists recently found, for example, that a tiny animal changes the color of its fur _ because of _ the number of hours of daylight. In the short _ days _ of winter, its fur becomes white. The fur becomes gray brown in color in the longer hours of daylight in summer.Inner signals control other biological clocks. German scientists found that some kind of internal clock seems to order birds to begin their long migration _ flight _ twice each year. Birds _ prevented from _ flying become restless when it is time for the trip,_ but _ they become calm again when the time of the flight has ended.Scientists say they are beginning to learn which _ parts _ of the brain contain biological clocks. An American researcher, Martin Moorhead, said a small group of cells near the front of the brain _ seems to control the timing of some of our actions. These _ cells _ tell a person when to _ awaken _ ,when to sleep and when to seek food . Scientists say there probably are other biological clock cells that control other body activities.Dr. Moorhead is studying _ how _ our biological clocks affect the way we do our work. For example, most of us have great difficulty if we must often change to different work hours._ It _ can take many days for a human body to accept the major change in work hours. Dr. Moorhead said industrial officials should have a better understanding of biological clocks and how they affect workers. He said _ such _ understanding could cut sickness and accidents at work and would help increase a factory’s production,第九篇The Case of the Disappearing FingerprintsOne useful anti-cancer drug can effectively erase the whorls and other characteristic marks that give people their distinctive fingerprints. Losing _ them._ could become troublesome. A casereleased online in a letter by Annals of Oncology indicates how big a _ problem _ of losing fingerprints is.Eng-Huat Tan, a Singapore-based medical doctor describes a 62-year old man who has used capecitabine to _ treat._ his nasopharyngeal cancer. After three years on the _ drug. ,the patient decided to visit U. S. relatives last December. But he was stopped by U. S. customs officials _ for 4 hours after entering the country when those officials couldn't get fingerprints from the man. There were no distinctive swirly _ marks _ appearing from his index finger.U. S. customs has been fingerprinting incoming foreign visitors for years, Tan says. Their index fingers are printed _ and screened against digital files of the fingerprints of bad guys—terrorists and potential criminals that our federal guardians have been tasked with keeping out of the country. Unfortunately, for the Singaporean traveler,one potential _ side _ effect of his drug treatment is a smoothing of the tissue on the finger pads. _ Hence _ ,no fingerprints.“It is uncertain when fingerprint loss will _ begin _ to take place in patients who are taking capecitabine,” Tan points out. So he cautions any physicians who _ prescribe _ the drug to provide their patients with .a doctor’s note pointing out that their medicine may cause fingerprints to disappear.Eventually, the Singapore traveler made it into the United States. I guess the name on his passport didn’t raise any red flags. But he,s also now got the explanatory doctor’s note —and won’t leave home _ without _ it.By the way, maybe the Food and Drug Administration, _ which _ approved use of the drug11 years ago, should consider _ updating _ its list of side effects associated with this medicine. The current list does note that patients may experience vomiting, stomach pain and some other side effects. But no where _ does _ it mention the potential for loss of fingerprints.第十四篇Young Adults Who Exercise Get Higher IQ Scores Young adults who are fit have a higher IQ and are more _ likely _ to go on to university,reveals a major new study carried out at the Sahlgrenska Academy and Sahlgrenska University Hospital.The results were recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The study involved 1.2 million Swedishmen doing military service who were born between 1950 and 1976. The research group analyzed the _ results _ of both physical and IQ tests the youngsters took right after they started serving the army.The study shows a clear link _ between _ good physical fitness andbetter results for theIQ test.Thestrongestlinks are for _ logical_thinking and verbal comprehension. But it is only fitness that plays arole _ in the results for the IQ test,and not strength. “Being fit meansthat you also have good heart and lung _ capacity _ and that your braingets plenty of oxygen _ ,”says Michael Nilsson, professor at theSahlgrenska Academy and chief physician at the SahlgrenskaUniversity Hospital. “This may be one of the reasons why _ we can seea clear link with fitness, but not with muscular strength _. We are alsoseeing that there are growth factors that are important. ”By analyzing data for twins, the researchers have been able _ todetermine that it is primarily environmental factors and not genes thatexplain the link between fitness and a _ higher _ IQ.“We have also shown that those youngsters who _ improve _ theirphysical fitness between the ages of 15 and 18 increase their cognitiveperformance,” says Maria Aberg, researcher at the SahlgrenskaAcademy and physician at Aby health centre. “This being th e case6,physical _ education _ is a subject that has an important place in schools,and is an absolute must if we want to do well in maths and othertheoretical subjects.”The researchers have also compared the results from fitness tests _during _ national service with the socio-economic status of the menlater in _ life _. Those who were fit at 18 were more likely to go intohigher education, and many secured more qualified jobs.X。

你可千万不要轻视这个小东西,wise可是一款高强数码相机,它将在人类已知的宇宙里拍摄任何你所能想到的天体,包括小行星、那些只能看到微弱的光和因燃烧而无法观察的天体,以及自行星和恒星诞生以来的巨大尘埃云。
NED WRIGHT 是主持wise项目的科学家。
他说:“我十分兴奋,因为我们就要看到以前从未看到过的那部分宇宙”。
到达宇宙空间后,wise由于受基地轨道重力的作用,一直在围绕地球旋转(这意味着,每转一圈,它就离南极和北极靠近)。
它的镜头是向外的,远离地球。
每11分钟wise就会抓拍天空一个不同的部分。
六个月之后,它将把整个天空拍摄完毕。
然而,wise拍摄的相片不会像我们日常的数码相片。
Wise是wide-field infrared survey explorer (广域红外勘测探测器)的缩写。
正如名字所示,wise能拍到发出红外线辐射物体的相片。
辐射是波浪状行进的一种能量。
人能看到的光,包括大家熟悉的,在彩虹里看到的光谱就是射线的一个例子。
当普通的数码相机给一棵树照相时,它能接受到树反射回来的,可见的光波。
光波通过镜头进入到相机里,相机对它进行加工,然后把图像合成。
红外线的波长比可见光长,所以,普通的数码相机捕捉不到它们,人眼也看不到这种射线。
尽管人们看不到,人的皮肤能感受到较长红外线带来的温暖。
这就是为数码wise能捕捉到其它望远镜看不到的物体的主要原因。
宇宙中,不是所有的东西都以可见光的方式呈现出来。
例如,小行星是在太空中漂浮的大岩石,但它们却释放出红外线,所以,像wise这样的红外线望远镜才能够捕捉到它们的图像。
Wise的任务就是拍摄成千上万的小行星图像。
Wise的另一任务是为另外一种太空深处的天体——褐矮星拍照。
这种天体是“失败的”恒星,它们是一些不够大,不能像太阳的能量那样启动相同的反应。

第二篇Baby TalkBabies normally start to talk when they are 13 to 15 months old. Ryan Jones is only eight months old, but he isalready “talking”with his parents. When lie is hungry, he opens and closes his hand. This means milk. He also knows the signs for his favorite toy and the word more.Ryan is not deaf, and his parents are not deaf, but his mother and father are teaching him to sign. They say a word and make a sign at the same time. They repeat this again and again. When Ryan learns a new sign, his family is very excited. Ryan’s parents think that he will be a happier baby because he can communicate with them.Ryan s parents are teaching Ryan to sign because of a man named Joseph Garcia. Although Garcia was not from a deaf family, he decided to learn American Sign Language (ASL). First, he took courses in ASL. Then he got a job helping deaf people communicate with hearing people. In his work, he saw many deaf parents sign to their infants. He noticed that these babies were able to communicate much earlier than hearing children. They talked with signs by the time they were eight months old. When they were one year old, they could use as many as 50 signs.Garcia decided to try something new. He taught ASL to parents who were not deaf. The families started to teach signs to their infants when they were six or seven months old. These babies started using signs about two months later. More and more parents took Garcia’s ASL classes. Like Ryan’s family, they were excited about signing with their babies. They wanted to give their babies a way to communicate before they could use spoken words.Some people worry about signing to babies. They are afraid that these babies won’t feel a need to talk. Maybe they will develop spoken language later than other babies. However, research does not show this. In fact, one study found just the opposite. Signing babies actually learned to speak earlier than other children. As they grow older, these children are more interested in books. They also score higher on intelligence tests1.There is still a big question for parents: Which are the best signs to teach their babies? Some parents make their own signs. Other parents want to teach ASL. It can be useful because many people understand it. There,s no clear answer, but we do know this: All signing babies and their families are talking quite a lot!第二篇婴儿语婴儿通常在1 ~15个月的时候开始说话。

:科研方法不过是人类思维活动必要方式的表达,只是对一切现象进行推理并给予精确严谨解释的方式。
你们都多次听说过,科学家在工作中使用的是归纳法和演绎法。
在某种意义上说,他们借助于这些方法设法从自然界中找出某些大协作规律,并根据这些规律建立起自己的理论。
:创造性的思想不仅能产生出适合时代和环境要求而自身生存的因素,而且在环境改变的压力下,可以由新的形式取代旧的形式。
例如,民主作为一种思想起源于古希腊,并从那里传播至西欧和美洲。
但民主并没有保留古希腊的形式,而是经历了数次改革过程。
实质上民主是动态发展的,且根据不同地区需求而改变。
因此,民主政府在形式上各不相同。
:在雇员经常变换工作的新时代,劳务市场上的新成员可望每十年变换一个职业,变换工作的频率甚至更高。
这种遍及西方商界的劳动力的模式和流动形式,是一个新的发展趋势。
其部分原因在于中间管理层逐步取消,致使越来越多的式人自己负责个人的发展。
让工人承担自我发展的责任也许颇具戏剧性,但如今已成了准则。
:由于工业发展水平和获取食物及原料能力的不同,各国政府对于人口增长的态度也不相同。
在发展中国家,人口急剧膨胀对有限的食物、
空间和自然资源带来极大压力,因此,政府首先关注的是人口控制。
在高度工业化的国家里,由于人口减少会导致市场萎缩和失业,政府很可能更愿看到人口缓慢增长。
:谈判包括说服和妥协,但是为了参与其中任何一项活动,谈判者必须懂得如何在谈判的文化背景下说服对方和达成妥协,。
导致跨文化误解的两个突出特点是美国谈判者的直截了当和缺乏耐心。
他们经常打坚持实现短期目标。
外国的谈判者可能会珍视与对手建立的联系,愿意投入时间,获取长期利益。
:曾几何时,有人对计算机、未来和“无纸化办公”做过大胆的预测。
然而,实际情况明显反映出计算机不仅没有减少纸张数量,相反却使之增加。
目前由于高速打印机和复印机的出现,制作高质量纸张文档已变得极为容易。
尽管诸如电子邮件那样的不以纸张形式出现的文档数量还在迅猛增长,但人们对纸张的需求却并没有因此减少,因此,人们认为至少在不久的将来,在即将到来的几十年中,纸将继续在办公室中扮演重要角色。
:工作本身是复杂、有趣并具有挑战性的,但它并不局限于一个或几个生产线、市场、买方类型、市场管理技能或职能的专业化。
你必须获取多方面的商业活动的知识,理解国内外政府的法律、政策和规章,敏锐地洞穴国际贸易行为,至少要深刻理解商法的几个组成部分。
:如果生活中有一个导致成功的因素的话,那就是从挫折中吸取教训的能力。
据我所知,一切成功的取得,都是因为当事人能够分析挫折,并在下一次的事业中实际地得益于上次的挫折。
如果把挫折与失败混同。
