V. Translation美国国家公园曾经,美国共和党被认为是环保党。

毕竟,阿贝·林肯划分了后来成为约塞米蒂国家公园的第一块地。

尤利西斯·辛普森·格兰特保护了成为黄石国家公园的那块地。

所有人都知道西奥多·罗斯福,他的成就很多,他签署了1906年颁布的《美国古迹法》,保护了美国大峡谷。

卡尔文·柯立芝保护了冰川湾;德怀特·艾森豪威尔为建立南极国家野生动物庇护所作出了第一步努力。

在共和、民主两党支持下,20世纪70年代理查德·尼克松颁布一系列保护环境的法案:《空气清洁法》、《美国国家环境政策法案》、《濒危动物法案》。

美国国家公园管理处管理着七千七百多万英亩的土地,320个不同种类的公园,最近审批的一个还覆盖了阿拉斯加广袤原始土地。

所管辖的公园种类多样,有城市公园、名胜古迹、海滨公园、国家河流,还有越来越多将公众休闲放在第一位的休闲区。

还有就是国家公园了,虽然它们吸引着成千上万的游客,但是国家公园的首要职能还是环境保护。

在一个贸易自由、商业利益强大的国度,这些公园所起的作用不可或缺。

在横跨旧金山湾的金门大桥边,生态环境保护者为保护仅存的红杉树,创办了红杉树国家公园,这些红杉高大挺拔。

伐木工人异常愤怒,在城市中游行示威,高喊“禁止再建公园”。

但是环保主义者和生态环境保护者总有他们自己的口号,这是“自由的国度”,他们的影响力也比其他国家环保主义者的影响力要大。

第一个国家公园是成立于1872年的黄石公园,位于怀俄明州。

黄石公园的一切都可以和浪漫联系在一起,将沸水柱喷射到200英尺高空的间歇泉,拥有奔腾河流和宏伟瀑布的大峡谷。

还有白雪皑皑的山峰、群树环绕的湖泊、广袤的森林、一望无际的草地,黄石河蜿蜒其间,直至流入大峡谷。

草地上,野牛、麋鹿、驼鹿和梅花鹿都来这里栖息吃草。

美国国家公园是世界上保护自然环境的典范。

所有公园都尽可能保持原生态。

中部平原以西地区,木材商摧毁了大片森林,但在森林公园中,禁止砍伐任何一棵树。

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening ——by Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year. He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound's the sweep Of the easy wind and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.

It also workstogether with blood and blood vessels tomake sure the cells get everything theyThe blood then returnsThe heart is located slightly to the leftin the middle of the chest. It has two hollowspaces or chambers. The blood goes into theatria, and is then pumped into the ventricles —two lower chambers. From here blood goes to the lungs and to every cell in the body. A valve in each ventricle stops blood from flowing backwards. An artery is a blood vessel that carries blood away from the heart. Arteries are sometimes as thick as a thumb.Blood is composed of red cells, white cells, and platelets floating in a fluid called plasma. This is a liquid, which can easily pass through small blood cells into cells. It makes up over half of the blood. Plasma carries nutrients (food) from the stomach to be used as fuel for energy.

Unit 1 Living with technologyThe evolution of video and sound devicesEarly history of TVThe first public TV broadcasts were made in the USA in 1925. Later, in 1928, the first long-distance TV broadcast was made between the UK and the USA. Regular public broadcasting followed shortly afterwards, first beginning on 11 May 1928 in New York and on 20 August 1929 in London.Many different people contributed to the development of TV. Most early TV broadcasts were made using a system develop ed by John Logie Baird in the UK.However, his system was very primitive and had many drawbacks. An American,Philo Farnsworth, made important breakthroughs in the development of TV in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Modern TVs use many of the principles first discovered by Farnsworth.John Logic Baird constructed the first colour TV in 1928, but it was not until 1938 that the first colour TV programme was broadcast. It took more than two decades, though, until 1951, for regular colour TV broadcasts to begin in the USA. Regular colour TV broadcasts were delayed in the UK until 1967. However, within a short time nearly all TV broadcasts were made in colour, and within five years more colour TVs than black-and-white TVs were being used.The modern age:satellite TVSatellites were used to broadcast TV beginning in 1962. Satellites allow TV to be broadcast live over vast distances, with everyone receiving the same broadcast at the same time. They also make TV accessible to people who live far away from cities, and satellite dishes can often be seen distributed throughout the countryside and remote areas. Of course, only a small percentage of people own satellite dishes.However, most people still benefit from satellite TV, as local TV companies broadcast the signals they get from satellite receivers to the population living nearby. Early history of sound recordersIt all began in 1877, when Thomas Edison made the first recording of a human voice on his invention, the record player. Early record players used round tubes to record on. However, in 1887 Emile Berliner, a German living in the USA, invented a record player that used discs as alternatives to tubes, and so the modern record player was born. The first record players had to be wound up by hand and only played records that were two minutes long. Times surely have changed!Sound and video recordersIn 1928, the first tape recorders used to copy sound were made in Germany. Most early recorders employed steel tape to record on, which made them heavy and difficult to use, or paper tape, which was easier to use but often broke. It was not until the early 1950s that most tape recorders began using plastic tape as they do today. Meanwhile, electrical components eventually became so small that, by the late 1960s, portable cassette players were developed, along with video recorders which were used by TV stations. By the late 1970s, video recorders small and cheap enough for home use were introduced.Sound and video go digitalIn 1982, the first CDs were made available. CDs are often used for storing and playing music because they have a much better sound quality than traditional records and cassettes. In 1993, the VCD was born, and in 1995, the DVD was invented. The DVD is now the standard for recordingand playing back video.The futureWith the development of digital technology, sound and video can now be stored on a PC, on the Internet, or using some form of portable storage. This will soon make records, cassette recorders, CDs, DVDs and even TVs things of the past. Technology is now changing faster than most people can keep pace with. Who can foresee what the future will bring?ProjectTo phone or not to phone?In the USA, the Amish--a Christian group--are famous because they drive carriages instead of cars, do not use TVs or refrigerators, and do not have personal telephones. Many people assume the Amish must have religious reasons for their many rules, but this is not true. In truth, whenever a new technology is introduced, the Amish meet and discuss its advantages and disadvantages. They then vote on whether they will accept it. The Amish reject cars because they like having tight communities where everyone lives close together. They have no TVs or refrigerators because their homes do not have electricity--they do not think it is necessary and dislike dealing with strangers, such as the people who work at the electric company.Since the Amish value seeing each other face to face, they oppose having telephones in their houses. However, in each community there is often a small building that has a telephone for emergencies.The telephone is very convenient for communication, and most people in the world today cannot live without it. However, maybe the Amish have a valid point. Which is more of a friend, someone you often talk to over the phone or someone you often talk to face to face? And, if you need help, who can help you better, someone far away or someone in the room with you? There is something important about being together and sharing life that cannot be found over a telephone wire.There are other disadvantages to the telephone, as well. For example, no matter what the circumstances, when the phone rings, everything stops so that the call can be answered. Your family could be eating dinner or chatting together, yet this will be interrupted. However, most phone calls are not really that important; certainly, they could not be more important than family time. Then, when you are absorbed in a book or simply trying to rest, the phone always seems to be ringing, destroying whatever peace you might have. However, the person calling is often merely a salesman or someone who has dialled the wrong number.With mobile phones, these problems increase. How many times have you been talking with a friend, only for your friend to interrupt the conversation to answer a call? For some reason, a typical mobile phone call is nearly always given greater importance than a face-to-face conversation. Yet, once again, most mobile phone calls are about rather small matters. When asked later what the call was about, your friend always answers, 'Oh, nothing really.' If the call was really about 'nothing', then why was it so important as to interrupt your conversation and waste your precious time?Of course, using the mobile phone for text messages is the worst. In one study, girls average 80 text messages a day, and boys average 30. What do people talk about in text messages? While these messages always seem important at the time, most people cannot really remember them the next day. Phones and text messages focus on building relationships with many people. However,these relationships are often quite shallow. Many teenagers say that while they have a lot of friends, they really have no best friend. The use of technology for communication rather than talking face to face is one reason why this is true. Meanwhile, real relationships are often sacrificed, and whatever personal peace one has is destroyed whenever the phone rings. The Amish in general have a higher degree of mental health than most people. They have very calm and stable lives because they value community and living in peace above all else, especially new technology. Maybe they are right. Maybe we should throw all of our phones into the dustbin, along with our cars and TVs for good measure. Maybe we should rid ourselves of modern technology and return to simpler times.What's that? ... Sorry, I have to go. The phone's ringing ...影像和声音设备的发展电视的早期历史无线电视传输节目于1925年在美国首次公开播出。

Born on March 3, 1847, in Edinburgh, Scotland, Alexander Graham Bell was the son and grandson of authorities in elocution and the correction of speech. Educated to pursue a career in the same specialty, his knowledge of the nature of sound led him not only to teach the deaf, but also to invent the telephone. Bell's greatest success was achieved on March 10, 1876— The first successful telephone transmission of clear speech using a liquid transmitter when Bell spoke into his device, “Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you.” and Watson heard each word distinctly.

Unit7 How America lives

Unit7 How America lives

Unit7 How America lives(1) Americans still follow many of the old ways. In a time of rapid changes it is essential that we remember how much of the old we cling to. Young people still get married. Of course, many do get divorced, butthey remarry at astonishing rates. They have children, but fewer than before. They belong to churches, even though they attend somewhat less frequently, and they want their children to have religious instruction. They are willing to pay taxes for education, and they generously support institutions like hospitals, museums and libraries. In fact, when you compare the America of today with that of 1950, the similarities are far greater than the differences. (1)美国人仍然遵循的许多旧的方式。

在一个快速变化的时代里,我们有必要记住还有多少旧的方式我们还在坚持。

年轻人仍然会结婚。

当然,很多离了婚,但他们还会以惊人的速度再婚。

他们有了孩子,但比以前要少。

他们属于教会,虽然他们不太经常参加,却想要自己的孩子接受宗教教育。

American Teenagers(翻译的)

American Teenagers(翻译的)

American Teenagers Dangerously Sleep Deprived (失眠)Sixteen-year-old Danny is a typically active teenager. He plays lacrosse(长曲棍球)and football and likes listening to rock music. But Danny is also part of a growing number of teenagers who are sleep deprived."Getting up in the morning is pretty terrible," he says. "I'm just very out of it(窘困)and tired. And then, going to school, I'm out of it. And through first and second period [classes], I can barely stay awake(勉强保持清醒)."Danny is not alone. Surveys show that half of all teenagers in the country are missing an average of one to one and a half hours of sleep every school night, and that's having negative consequences on their performance - in and out of the classroom.While some believe that a teenager's reluctance to get up in the morning is sheer laziness (完全的懒惰), sleep experts say that's not necessarily the case. Michael Breus, a clinical psychologist(临床心理学家)who specializes in sleep disorders(转门研究睡眠失调), says kids like Danny aren't just a bunch of lazy kids."These are children whose biological rhythms(生理周期), more times than not(在很多情况下), are off(会离开)," says Breus.Negative consequencesTeenager's biological rhythms - often referred to as their circadian rhythms(昼日节律)- favor later bedtimes and later wake-up times.But, with many school systems starting classes as early as 7 a.m., teenagers like Danny often come to school half asleep."We have long known that the more sleep deprived you are, the more cranky (怪癖)you are. So when your child, who really needs eight or nine hours, is only sleeping for seven hours a night, they are going to experience a form of depression(沮丧)that could be significant and could have some pretty major effects on their overall well-being(健康)."According to doctor Breus, that mood-altering deficit(情绪调节的不足)can affect a teen's academic performance(学习成绩), their athletic ability and even their performance behind the wheel of a car.Any drowsy driver(昏昏欲睡的司机)is dangerous,of course , but especially a teenager with a lack of experience can be even more dangerous.Doctor Breus acknowledges that there are other factors that contribute to a teenager's sleep loss. School is one area where small changes can bring about dramatic results(戏剧性的结果)."There've been multiple research studies that now show that in fact when you change the school start time, allowing children to start later in the morning, their grades(成绩)go up by almost a full letter grade in their first- and second-period (classes)," he says.Later school start time equals happier, healthier teensDozens of school districts around the country have been looking at these studies and are considering ways to adjust(调整)their class schedules.Eric Peterson is head of St. George's School, a private boarding school(私立寄宿学校)for grades 9-12 in the northeastern state of Rhode Island(罗德岛州).After looking at the medical research on adolescent sleep(青春期少年睡眠)needs and observing students in his own school, Peterson decided to change his school's start time from 8:00 am to 8:30 am on a trial basis to see if a 30-minute change would make a difference."What was really astonishing was how many benefits and how significant the benefits were," "In the research itself, we saw just over a 50% decrease in health-center admissions for fatigue(疲劳), or fatigue-related illness, or rest requests(请假). We saw almost 35 percent decrease in first-period tardiness. Students reported that they were more alert. They were less sleepy during the day."And, according to Dr. Patricia Moss, assistant dean(副院长)for Academic Affairs at St. George's School, students weren't the only ones reporting better results in the classroom. “I can say that and in totally virtually(事实上)all the teachers almost noticed immediately much more alertness in the classroom, definitely(显然)a more positive mood all around.” "Kids were happier to be there at 8:30 than they were at 8:00," she says. "So our experience across the total spectrum was, universally, extremely positive and surprisingly so."Peterson says there was another surprising benefit to the later start time."We saw probably a greater than 30 percent increase in student attendance at breakfast, and of the food that they were eating. We more than doubled the amount of milk, eggs, fruit and cereal. So it was quality breakfast foods that the kids were eating. So they were better fueled as well as better rested(精力充沛)."Doctor Ross and Peterson acknowledge that making schedule changes has been easier at a small, private boarding school than it might be for the larger U.S. public school system. But they are hopeful that others will find a way."In the end," says Peterson, "schools ought to do what's the right thing for their students, first and foremost(最重要的), and this element of the program is very clear - certainly for us as a school - but I think as a general example to other schools, is pretty compelling(受争议的), and so I would argue that it's worth doing."In the meantime(在此期间), experts say that - as we learn more about adolescent sleep patterns and exactly why they need those nine hours of sleep - it is up to families and individual students like Danny to take personal responsibility for paying more attention to sleep as an essential element of a healthy life.。

► “Southern
history bespeaks a place that is more complicated than the stories we tell about it. Throughout its history, the South has been a place where poverty and plenty have been thrown together in especially jarring ways, where democracy and oppression, white and black, slavery and freedom, have warred. The very story of the South is a story of unresolved identity, unsettled and restless, unsure and defensive. The South, contrary to so many words written in defense and in attack, was not a fixed, known, and unified place, but rather a place of constant movement, struggle, and negotiation.” (26)

"Atticus, are we going to win it?" "No, honey." "Then why-" "Simply because we were licked a hundred years before we started is no reason for us not to try to win," Atticus said. "You sound like Cousin Ike Finch," I said. Cousin Ike Finch was Maycomb County's sole surviving Confederate veteran. He wore a General Hood type beard of which he was inordinately vain. At least once a year Atticus, Jem and I called on him, and I would have to kiss him. It was horrible. Jem and I would listen respectfully to Atticus and Cousin Ike rehash the war. "Tell you, Atticus," Cousin Ike would say, "the Missouri Compromise was what licked us, but if I had to go through it agin I'd walk every step of the way there an' every step back jist like I did before an' furthermore we'd whip 'em this time... now in 1864, when Stonewall Jackson came around by- I beg your pardon, young folks. Ol' Blue Light was in heaven then, God rest his saintly brow...." "Come here, Scout," said Atticus. I crawled into his lap and tucked my head under his chin. He put his arms around me and rocked me gently. "It's different this time," he said. "This time we aren't fighting the Yankees, we're fighting our friends. But remember this, no matter how bitter things get, they're still our friends and this is still our home." Ch 9

What is Setting? Some Basic Terms

► Setting
includes the place, physical context and historical period in which the story takes place. ► An integral setting is essential to the plot; it influences action, character or theme. ► A backdrop setting is relatively unimportant to the plot; it is like the featureless curtain or flat painted scenery of a theater. ► Setting can clarify conflict, illuminate character, affect the mood, and act as a symbol. The setting itself can be an antagonist in a person-againstnature conflict.
