硕士英语综合教程1课文翻译Unit 4人工智能的未来到2050年,每秒能执行100万亿次命令的机器人的“大脑”将开始与人脑争雄。
1. 近年来,计算机和互联网如雨后春笋般普及,无处不在且功能强大。
他们的发展速度和用处远远超出了当年人们的预测。
一些警觉的权威人士预言说未来世界将充满电脑芯片,它们将不断渗透到我们的小巧装置里,居所里,衣着上甚至我们的身体里。
2. 但是,类似这样的目标仍很难实现。
与超出预期的迅速迅猛发展成为主流的计算机形成鲜明对比的是,对机器人技术研发的所有努力甚至未能达到二十世纪五十年代对于机器人技术发展的预测。
那时候,专家们为计算机看起来奇迹般的运算能力所惊叹,相信只要写出正确的软件,计算机就能成为复杂的自主机器人的人工大脑。
他们相信,在十年或二十年内,这样的机器人将为我们清扫地板,修剪草坪,简而言之,它们将把我们从苦活累活中解脱出来。
3. 很明显的,机器人的发展并不像专家们所预言的那样。
确实,除了很多产品之外,工业机器人的出现还改变了汽车的生产方式。
但是这种自动化远远不及科学家和工程师们所希望的多功能、可移动、自主的机器人。
在追求制造这种机器人的过程中,一波又一波的科学家失去了信心,许多的新兴公司也因其破产。
4. 并不是机器人的“身体”无法实现;关节灵活的机械手臂和其他可活动的机械早已经存在,工业机器人正是证明。
真正无法企及的是以计算机为基础的人工“大脑”,目前的技术的复杂程度仍达不到建造一个类似人类的机器人。
5. 不过,我仍然坚信,几十年来对高效的,多用途的自主机器人的梦想将在不远的将来实现。
到那时,我们能看到和人类一样大小的机器人,但智力上在很多方面都类似蜥蜴。
它们将能够执行简单的工作,比如吸尘,打扫,递送包裹,扔垃圾等。
我相信,到2040年,我们将最终达到机器人技术的终极目标和科幻小说中的主题:一个具有人类智力水平的可自由移动的机器人。
乐观的理由6. 考虑到我之前所说的在机器人技术历史上众多未达成的目标,为什么还相信机器人技术的快速发展和惊人成就很快就会到来呢?我的自信建立在电子技术和软件技术最近的发展上,以及我在过去的30多年里对机器人,计算机,甚至是昆虫,爬行动物和其他生物的观察。

Others feel irritable all the time for no apparent reason.Most people who have gone through one episode of depression will, sooner or later, have another one. The symptoms vary from person to person, but if you feel "down" for more than two weeks, and these feelings are interfering with your daily life, you may be clinically depressed.The common symptoms including:*poor concentration and memory*withdrawal from social situations and activities*an inability to experience pleasure in activities that were formerly enjoyed*preoccupied with thoughts and feelings of worthlessness, helplessness, self-hatred, etc.*thoughts of death or suicide, etc.Learning to recognize these early triggers or symptoms and working with your doctor will help to keep the depression from worsening.

The first time, I was 12, and my sister, Jenny, was Shewas diagnosed with juvenile diabetes and needed further testing. When we arrived at the hospital, my dad walked around to her side of the car, gathered her into his arms and held her.None of us understood what was happening to my sister’s body, but when I heard my strong dad’s voice break with tears, I knew we were on a new and unexpected path.2.Almost 10 years later, in the fall following my college graduation, I was the one myfather gathered into his arms. At 22, I was diagnosed with clinical depression and voluntarily admitted to a psychiatric hospital. At a time in my life when the world was supposed to be opening up to me, I found myself retreating. Apathetic, uncaring, tired, and with no particular vision for any future, I drifted into a world without hope. My family and I knew I needed help.3.As a child, I had great passion for life. The simplest of pleasures brought unexplainablejoy. I seldom demonstrated a melancholic personality. In fact, my parents learned that birthdays, Christmas and any reason for celebration would find me in excitement. I loved life, and I loved being alive. When depression struck, I was dropped into a world where wearing my own skin was foreign and ill-fitting.4.My mom says that one of the hardest days of her life was the day I checked into thehospital. My personal belongings were rummaged through, and I headed down the long hallway to doctors and a treatment team that became my ―family‖ for the next month. Her drive home, leaving me behind, was heartbreaking. She was left to wonder and guess at why her daughter was in so much pain and why she couldn’t fix it this time.5.I was numb, trying to see through a haze that had settled upon what once was vivid andbright. All color had seeped from a life that used to hold such joy. Some peopl e didn’t understand my depression. They regarded it as a bad case of the Sunday evening blues believing that if I tried harder and stopped feeling sorry for myself, I would ―get better.‖ But I wasn’t just dealing with apathy toward routine.I couldn’t remedy being sick with a strenuous run, a good movie, or simply the passing of time. Depression transcended my circumstances and invaded my soul. It was more like a day terror —like waking up to a nightmare. Clinical depression painted my world black while screaming quietly that I was worthless.6.I remember driving home from work the week before I checked into the hospital. Myco-workers hadn’t noticed any difference in my performance or behavior. I was great at keeping up appearances. I was good at performing. But that evening, I recall wishing I weren’t alive, wishing my car would turn down an empty road and I could disappear. Upon arriving home, I headed straight for my room and slipped under my covers, hoping to sleep. I wanted to escape life because it hurt to breathe.7.By the end of my first week at the hospital, I had made up my mind to leave. It wasn’tworking. I packed my bags, headed to the front desk, and announced that I was calling my parents to come and pick me up. But my treatment team told me I needed to stay. Defeated and scared, I returned to my room, unpacked my bags and cried myself to sleep. It was time to get honest with myself.8.I was angry. Me, happy Alice, with so much going for her. Stripped of the world’saccolades, it didn’t m atter what school I had attended, where I had vacationed, what awards I had won. It didn’t matter who I knew, didn’t know, or thought I knew. What mattered to those surrounding me was that I was honest about my feelings. They didn’t have to be pretty. I di dn’t have to look good. I could just be — and that was enough.9.It was the kindness, sympathy, love and truth demonstrated in the hospital that beganunlocking my wounds, hurts and distorted thinking. I was learning from the worn lives around me. Lives I would have once felt pity for or wanted to distance myself from. They were the ones who possessed strength and courage. They had suffered abuse, neglect, addiction and illnesses. They felt misplaced and forgotten; they were told they didn’t matter. I cam e from a family filled with love, but as I and others in my hospital ―family‖ shared our suffering, I found I needed their love.10.Getting help and getting rid of the junk cluttering my mind were part of getting better.Hope came gradually, and with small steps slowly returned feeling and clarity. I was changing.My thinking was being altered.I was given a truer sense of who I was: a young woman who needed to be loved for herself, not for what she could offer — not for how she could make you feel. Being honest in the hidden places of my heart. Taking personal responsibility. And slowly, the desire to live, the courage to want to live, began to return. Once truth reveals deception, the lie can no longer deceive unless we choose to let it.11. A year and a half after my release from the hospital, I drove along a country road. Themoon was bright. The stars brighter. Snow gave a fresh milky coat to the trees, and the night air was full and dark. I felt so alive. I hadn’t believed there would ever be something good enough or rich enough to make up for the pain and darkness I had known. My pain had been deep. But on this quiet stretch of road, I knew it had all been worth it. I knew that life was different because of my experience. Suffering had painted color into my life, and I could be thankful.Paragraphs 1-3Questions1. The writer stresses at the very beginning that when her sister was suffering from juvenile diabetes, her father cried bitterly for the first time. When do you think her father cried for the second time? (Paragraph 2)It is not difficult to infer that the writer’s father cried for the second time when the writer was diagnosed with clinical depression.2. Would you describe the writer’s personality as a child before she was seized with depre ssion? (Paragraph 3)As a child, the writer had a great passion for life and enjoyed being alive. The simplest of pleasures brought her great joy. She seldom demonstrated a melancholic personality. Any reason for celebration would find her in great excitement.Words and Expressions1. diagnose:v.1) find out the nature of an illness by observing its symptomse.g. The illness was diagnosed as measles.2) find out what the cause of a fault is, after doing tests, examinations, etc.e.g. The book diagnoses our present economic ills, explaining what is wrong with the economy. Derivation:diagnosis: n.Collocations:diagnose sb. as (having) sth.e.g. Joe struggled in school before he was diagnosed as dyslexic.diagnose sth. as sth.e.g. The illness was diagnosed as mumps.diagnose sb.with sth.e.g. She was diagnosed with breast cancer.Translation:The doctor has diagnosed the illness as heart disease.医生把此病诊断为心脏病。

UNIT11. Recently, one of us had the opportunity to speak with a medical student about a research rotation that the student was planning to do. She would be working with Dr. Z, who had given her the project of writing a paper for which he had designed the protocol, collected the data, and compiled the results. The student was to do a literature search and write the first draft of the manuscript. For this she would become first author on the final publication. When concerns were raised about the proposed project, Dr. Z was shocked. "l thought I was doing her a favor," he said innocently, "and besides, I hate writing!"2. Dr. Z is perhaps a bit naive. Certainly, most researchers would know that the student's work would not merit first authorship. They would know that "gift" authorship is not an acceptable research practice. However, an earlier experience in our work makes us wonder. Several years ago, in conjunction with the grant from the Fund for the Improvement of Pott Secondary Education (FIPSE), a team of philosophers and scientists at Dartmouth College 2 ran a University Seminar series for faculty on the topic "Ethical Issues in scientific Research."At one seminar, a senior researcher (let's call him Professor R) argued a similar position to that of Dr. Z. In this case Professor R knew that "gift" authorship, authorship without a significant research contribution, was an unacceptable research practice. However, he had a reason to give authorship to his student.The student had worked for several years on a project suggested by him and the project had yielded to publishable data. Believing that he had a duty to the student to ensure a publication, Professor R had given the student some data that he himself had collected and told the student to write it up. The student had worked hard, he said, albeit on another project, and the student would do the writing. Thus, he reasoned, the authorship was not a "gift."3. These two stories point up a major reason for encouraging courses in research ethics: Good intentions do not necessarily result in ethical decisions. Both of the faculty members in the above scenarios "meant well." In both cases, the faculty members truly believed that what they were doing was morally acceptable. In the first case, Dr. Z's indefensible error was that he was unaware of the conventions of the field.In particular, he seemed blissfully oblivious to the meaning of first authorship. In the second case, Professor R was do ng what he thought best for the student without taking into consideration that moral. ty is a public system and that his actions with regard to a single student have public consequences for the practice of science as a profession.4. Well-meaning scientists, such as those just mentioned, can, with the best of intentions, make unethical decisions. In some cases, such decisions may lead individuals to become embroiled in cases of 1. 最近,我们当中的一员有机会与一名医科学生谈论她正计划要做的一个实验室轮转项目。

一How to put learner firstWith the development of the society, education has been grown attention by people. So as a developing country, our education is now experiencing a great challenge. How should we improve our educational status quo? The answer is that we should put learner first in the process of education, because students are the subject of education.How to put learner first? In the teaching process, we come up with every idea and established every goal that must depart from the student's own development. Teachers should first prepare students in class, and then prepare knowledge so that every student gets progress, rather than a cookie-cutter to education. Only in this way can it motivate students' learning desire, spontaneous learning makes them, let them have fun in learning,to cater to the students' own development rule, only in this way can china education obtain a good development.In short, students as the main body in the process of education, teachers in the teaching process should more understand each student's own development situation, according to the actual situation of students set teaching plan, and put the students in the first place all the time.二My view on graduate education in chinaGraduate education is an important part of China's higher education. It shoulders the important mission of cultivating advanced talents. However, the current development of postgraduate education is not satisfied.Due to increase enrollment, the education of talent quality becomes lower.There are many reasons about it. First, with the increase number of graduate enrollment, it’s number almost close to the undergraduate enrollment in recent years.Although this kind of situation to adapt to the situation of our country at present stage, improve the whole national culture quality and delay the employment pressure, there are many problem that not allow ignoring, especially the postgraduate education quality problem. Second, there will always be some students who are turned away by the job market in the recruitment process because of a variety of reasons. This is due to the relatively independent between the academic and market demand. Final this problem should be solved immediately so that our country’s the graduate education can get good development.On the whole, while the graduate student education still has some problems, I believe that government will make some relevant measures to solve these problems. It makes the graduate student education a positive development.三The cyberattack in our lifeWith the further development of the internet, all kinds of online activities has become increasingly frequent,this makes the network security issues become more prominent, all kinds of network attack emerge in endlessly, how to prevent network attacks, network environment is particularly important to protect the unit and personal.In the real network environment, the measures of prevention hacker attacks mainly have two aspects: first, we should establish a safe network environment, all kinds of security software installed, updated software and use the latest virus library;Second, we should strengthen our knowledge about computer security, network attack ways and means, we don't open those unsafe websites; Final, we should pay attention to personal account and password protection, develop good habits on the internet.All in all, the government should improve the network information security laws and regulations. At the same time, we should enhance their consciousness of network information security. I believe that one day our network environment will become better.四Romantic love and marriageLove and marriage play an important role in the life of people. I think love is the most important to the marriage, because love is the foundation of the marriage.For us, with love, the couple will have the strong power to face everything in their future life, not for his or her own, but for the other half in their life. It is love that makes their hearts close and makes their life full of warmth. This type of marriage usually brings happiness. Many couples live a happy life because their marriage is based on true love. In real life, however, some people get married just to seek for a life partner, but marriage like this won’t be happy, for the two don’t have the same faith, and their marriage is destined to be a failure. Numerous facts prove that marriage based on true love lasts and cannot be easily split up whereas marriage without love does not endure and may end in divorce.In my opinion, love is romantic and marriage is realistic. However, no matter how love should be the premise of marriage. Marriage is not a game and we have to consider many issues, such as family and children. So when we consider the marriage must be realistic and want to think calmly. That makes it possible to obtain a successful marriage.五how to battle the outbreaks of pandemics With the development of the society, people's life quality rise ceaselessly, more and more disease repeated outbreaks. It brought huge influence to people's life. How should we do to prevent various infectious diseases。

Main ideaWhat is the story narrated in the text about?This narrative essay narrates and describes an unusual and unforgettable phase of the writer’s life, during which she experienced deep depression, voluntarily received clinical treatment, conquered the illness in the end, and benefited a great deal from the experiences associated with her suffering.II. Structural analysis1. How are the events of the essay arranged?The narration mostly follows a chronological order, but a few flashbacks are inserted in Paragraph 3 and 6.Section Three Detailed ReadingText IThe Light of DepressionAlice Johnson1.Twice, I have seen my father cry. The first time, I was 12, and my sister, Jenny, was Shewas diagnosed with juvenile diabetes and needed further testing. When we arrived at the hospital, my dad walked around to her side of the car, gathered her into his arms and held her.None of us understood what was happening to my sister’s body, but when I heard my strong dad’s voice break with tears, I knew we were on a new and unexpected path.2.Almost 10 years later, in the fall following my college graduation, I was the one myfather gathered into his arms. At 22, I was diagnosed with clinical depression and voluntarily admitted to a psychiatric hospital. At a time in my life when the world was supposed to be opening up to me, I found myself retreating. Apathetic, uncaring, tired, and with no particular vision for any future, I drifted into a world without hope. My family and I knew I needed help.3.As a child, I had great passion for life. The simplest of pleasures brought unexplainablejoy. I seldom demonstrated a melancholic personality. In fact, my parents learned that birthdays, Christmas and any reason for celebration would find me in excitement. I loved life, and I loved being alive. When depression struck, I was dropped into a world where wearing my own skin was foreign and ill-fitting.4.My mom says that one of the hardest days of her life was the day I checked into thehospital. My personal belongings were rummaged through, and I headed down the long hallway to doctors and a treatment team that became my “family” for the next month. Her drive home, leaving me behind, was heartbreaking. She was left to wonder and guess at why her daughter was in so much pain and why she couldn’t fix it this time.5.I was numb, trying to see through a haze that had settled upon what once was vivid andbright. All color had seeped from a life that used to hold such joy. Some peopl e didn’t understand my depression. They regarded it as a bad case of the Sunday evening blues believing that if I tried harder and stopped feeling sorry for myself, I would “get better.” But I wasn’t just dealing with apathy toward routine.I couldn’t remedy being sick with a strenuous run, a good movie, or simply the passing of time. Depression transcended my circumstances and invaded my soul. It was more like a day terror —like waking up to a nightmare. Clinical depression painted my world black while screaming quietly that I was worthless.6.I remember driving home from work the week before I checked into the hospital. Myco-workers hadn’t noticed any difference in my performance or behavior. I was great at keeping up appearances. I was good at performing. But that evening, I recall wishing I weren’t alive, wishing my car would turn down an empty road and I could disappear. Upon arriving home, I headed straight for my room and slipped under my covers, hoping to sleep. I wanted to escape life because it hurt to breathe.7.By the end of my first week at the hospital, I had made up my mind to leave. It wasn’tworking. I packed my bags, headed to the front desk, and announced that I was calling my parents to come and pick me up. But my treatment team told me I needed to stay. Defeated and scared, I returned to my room, unpacked my bags and cried myself to sleep. It was time to get honest with myself.8.I was angry. Me, happy Alice, with so much going for her. Stripped of the world’saccolades, it didn’t m atter what school I had attended, where I had vacationed, what awards I had won. It didn’t matter who I knew, didn’t know, or thought I knew. What mattered to those surrounding me was that I was honest about my feelings. They didn’t have to be pretty. I di dn’t have to look good. I could just be — and that was enough.9.It was the kindness, sympathy, love and truth demonstrated in the hospital that beganunlocking my wounds, hurts and distorted thinking. I was learning from the worn lives around me. Lives I would have once felt pity for or wanted to distance myself from. They were the ones who possessed strength and courage. They had suffered abuse, neglect, addiction and illnesses. They felt misplaced and forgotten; they were told they didn’t matter. I cam e from a family filled with love, but as I and others in my hospital “family” shared our suffering, I found I needed their love.10.Getting help and getting rid of the junk cluttering my mind were part of getting better.Hope came gradually, and with small steps slowly returned feeling and clarity. I was changing.My thinking was being altered.I was given a truer sense of who I was: a young woman who needed to be loved for herself, not for what she could offer — not for how she could make you feel. Being honest in the hidden places of my heart. Taking personal responsibility. And slowly, the desire to live, the courage to want to live, began to return. Once truth reveals deception, the lie can no longer deceive unless we choose to let it.11. A year and a half after my release from the hospital, I drove along a country road. Themoon was bright. The stars brighter. Snow gave a fresh milky coat to the trees, and the night air was full and dark. I felt so alive. I hadn’t believed there would ever be something good enough or rich enough to make up for the pain and darkness I had known. My pain had been deep. But on this quiet stretch of road, I knew it had all been worth it. I knew that life was different because of my experience. Suffering had painted color into my life, and I could be thankful.Paragraphs 1-3Questions1. The writer stresses at the very beginning that when her sister was suffering from juvenile diabetes, her father cried bitterly for the first time. When do you think her father cried for the second time? (Paragraph 2)It is not difficult to infer that the writer’s father cried for the second time when the writer was diagnosed with clinical depression.2. Would you describe the writer’s personality as a child before she was seized with depre ssion? (Paragraph 3)As a child, the writer had a great passion for life and enjoyed being alive. The simplest of pleasures brought her great joy. She seldom demonstrated a melancholic personality. Any reason for celebration would find her in great excitement.Words and Expressions1. diagnose:v.1) find out the nature of an illness by observing its symptomse.g. The illness was diagnosed as measles.2) find out what the cause of a fault is, after doing tests, examinations, etc.e.g. The book diagnoses our present economic ills, explaining what is wrong with the economy. Derivation:diagnosis: n.Collocations:diagnose sb. as (having) sth.e.g. Joe struggled in school before he was diagnosed as dyslexic.diagnose sth. as sth.e.g. The illness was diagnosed as mumps.diagnose sb.with sth.e.g. She was diagnosed with breast cancer.Translation:The doctor has diagnosed the illness as heart disease.医生把此病诊断为心脏病。

Reverse culture shock
Reverse Culture Shock (a.k.a. “Re-entry Shock”, or “own culture shock”) may take place — returning to one's home culture after growing accustomed to a new one can produce the same effects as described above. This results from the psychosomatic (身心失调的)and psychological consequences of the readjustment process to the primary culture. The affected person often finds this more surprising and difficult to deal with than the original culture shock.

c. Adjustment Stage
Again, after some time (usually 6 to 12 months), one grows accustomed to the new culture and develops routines. One knows what to expect in most situations and the host country no longer feels all that new. One becomes concerned with basic living again, and things become more “normal”. One starts to develop problemsolving skills for dealing with the culture and begins to accept the culture’s ways with a positive attitude. The culture begins to make sense, and negative reactions and responses to the culture are reduced.

研究生英语综合教程1(西交大)部分课文翻译
硕士综合英语教程1参考译文Unit 1创建低碳经济概述1. 对于主要由人类活动而迅速积累的温室气体引发了全球变暖这一事实,没有人再持有异议。
除非我们协同一致,快速转向低碳经济,否则全球变暖的趋势将会愈演愈烈。
这一危机日益彰显逼近。
正如获得2007年诺贝尔和平奖的联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会(IPCC)主席拉金德拉?帕乔里所声称的:“如果在2012年之前我们还没有采取行动,那就为时已晚了。
我们在未来两到三年中的所作所为将决定我们的未来。
这是决定性的时刻。
”2. 同工业化前的水平相比,地球平均温度已经上升了0.8摄氏度(1.4华氏度左右),速度为自1975年以来每十年增加0.2摄氏度;如果我们仍然一意孤行,那么温度还会继续发生永久性的变化。
这种温度变化听起来似乎不大,但事实并非如此。
最后一个冰河时代时的全球平均气温不过比现今低约5.4摄氏度(9.7华氏度)。
3. 很多权威的气候学家们都曾发出过这样的警告:如果我们现在的温度超过工业化前2摄氏度(3.6华氏度)的话,我们将会迈进一个危险的未知国度。
没有人能知道到底全球变暖具体达到多少度会变得无法控制,并且造成像干旱、洪水、飓风以及热浪等自然灾害的逐渐恶化,造成诸如格陵兰岛或西南极洲大冰原坍塌以及伴随的全球海平面上升等意外的灾难性变化。
但是我们还依然在我们唯一的家园上不断做着危险而又不受约束的尝试,这也是为什么越来越多的年轻人开始将气候变化视为他们这一代人的一项挑战。
4. 《华盛顿邮报》4月刊报导到:“对于许多儿童和青年而言,全球气候变暖无异于当今的原子弹。
对于环境危机的担忧正影响着这一代人,正如经济大萧条、第二次世界大战、越南战争和冷战等等挥之不去的‘战争游戏’影响了20世纪的灵魂一样。
”5. 有些可怕的预测可能并不会发生,但考虑到那些最优秀的科学家们发出的警告,如果我们再冒险尝试将是极不负责任的做法。
科学家告诉我们,如果我们不尽快采取行动,想要避免全球变暖引发的最严重恶果则为时晚矣。

To adhere to the people-oriented, all theories, routs and policies should be all for the people and by the people, citizens and communities shoud show mutual respect, understanding, care and help each other.

Though Yale, and all other top schools, focusing on granting a “global” MBA experience, the style of instruction, the classroom environment, and the nuanaces of school culture are very much American. In my daily communications with my classmates who come from other countries, particularly China, it seems that three key pillars of the U.S. education experience acturally come as a major culture shock: loud and often boisterous in-class discussion; the reliance on teamwork to complete tasks; and the very important but subtle relationship within the class. For someone who has grown up in the American school system, conforming to these three attributes happens almost subconsciously. I have never thought it is such a challenge to others.Unit 41.It often happens, however, that thinking lags behind reality; this is because man’scognition is limited by numerouse social conditions.2.Something big was in the offing, so big that the workers in Simonson plant hadbeen virtually arrested to prevent any information from leaking out.3.Only by understanding the nature of thinking mood, can man bring forth newideas in philosophy, and the crux of philosophical innovation lies in the change of man’s thinking mood.4.From then on, he struggled in his attempts to overcome his humble origins andinsinuate himself into upper-class society.5.It’s a far cry from the days when I was just a clerk in a supermarket and nobodypaid me any attention.6.The invention of microprocessors set the stage for the arrival of themicrocomputer, or personal computer---an affordable machine for the masses. 7.So there are no enemies in absolute terms.

Yet there is little or no control over how these machines are used. Some help busy professionals entertain children; other machines feed and bathe the elderly and incapacitated. “We need guidelines for a cut-off so we have a limit to the contact with robots”, one expert said. “Some children-care robots are designed safly enough for the parents to leave their children to robots for hours even for days. Besides children, the elders need care,too. Compared with the number of the young care-givers , the number of the elders in some countries keeps on increasing, which stimulates the development of elder-care robots.Unit 5.1.People’s money must be spent coping with their prioprities, rather than lining thepockets of the contractors, or maintaining projects that d on’t work.2.Zurich residents, more than anyone in the world, earn 22.60 dollars per hour inaverage net pay, according to the Prices and Earnings report recently released by UBS.3.Though she isn’t British by birth, she is British citizen by virtue of her mar riage toan Englishman.4.Despite the blood gushing out from the wound, the heroic soldier succeeded ingetting the mother and the son out of the bus which might explode at that moment.5.He sat in front of them, dressed in a plain, ill-fitting suit, never moving, his dustyface veiling his real age.6.While most bars and restaurants have addresses, Beirut is a maze of twisting sidestreet, many of them unmarked.7.Behing the carriage came a motley string of figures---vagrants, beggers, clownsturning somersaults and street verdors hawking their wares.8.But at my back, I always hear time’s winged chariot hurrying near; and yonder, allbefore us lie desert of vast eternity.Paragraph translationEdison understood a great principle of living, almost any situation---good or bad--- is effected by the attitude we take toward it. Tough-minded optimists approach problems with a can-do philosophy and emerge stronger from tragedies.

In his book Man’s Search for Meaning, Dr. Victor Frankl recalled even in that extreme situation there were “men who walked through huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the freedom to choose his attitude in any given set of circumstances.”Unit 61. There are a lot more wonderful and exciting things waiting for you in New Beijing,a dynamic modern metropolis with 3,000 years of cultural and historical treasures woven into the urban prosperity.2. He is such an enthusiastic football fan that he tends to hold forth on his favorite team whenever it is mentioned.3.

This is a severe test to China and Shanghai. Over the past eight years, we mobilized resources throughout the country and pooled the wisdom of the world in the preparation for the Expo. The people of Shanghai, in particular, made selfless contributions and the Internatioanl Exhibitions Bureau and host countries of past Expos provided valuable guidance. The success of the Expo could not have been possible without the tireless efforts of many people, including the organizers, construction workers, staff members, visitors and volunteers. It is their sincerity, wisdom and hard work that have rendered splendor to the Expo. On behalf of the Chinese government, I wish to express heartfelt gratitude and pay high tribute to all the comrades and friends who have participated in, supported and contributed to the Shanghai Expo.Unit 71.Now people in Tibet are highly conscious of the importance of protecting wildanimals, and the once rampant hunting of Tibetan antelopes has been brought under control.2.The journalist had been traveling a lot lately--- to Iceland to interview the famousactress there; to Hollywood for the Oscar---but he was stingy with details.3.We should adhere to the policy of expanding domestic demand, continue toimplement the proactive fiscal policy and prodent monetary policy, and ensure a double-pull effort on economic growth from both consumption demand and investment demand.4.The employees of the Human Resource Department have to sift through verycarefully the application forms that just came in this morning to separate the wheat from the chaff.5.Making its debut in 1994, Friends and its cast of easy-going single people caughton with viewers looking for an escape from the last-paced 1990s.6.On the new Pocket PCs, the interface looks more like Palm’s, complete withlarger icons and fewer pull-down menus.7.Over the next five years, he continued to evolve his own unique musical style---astyle that would become the template for a whole new musical genre.8.What I love most is to arrive in a place I have never been before and immersemyself in a new culture and environment--- to experience first-hand what I thought I knew, but which turns out to be much more interesting and surprising once you are there.Paragraph translationJournalists and Tv people, we know, are supposed to record what goes on; but in trying to get the best record they can, they may sometimes seem amazingly cold-blooded. Some of th e seediest of journalists, whether we’re talking about the Middle East or Northern Ireland, are those who pile one set of adjectives like squalid, butchering, oppressive for terrorism of whose aims they disapprove, and quite another set like committed or dedicated for the same thing done by those they like. But that is far from the whole problem. People complain journalists not because that they behave badly in the course of duty, but for their inability to record into a human being when it’s over.。

气候变化对环境所造成的后果预测众所周知。
依据稳健可靠的优新科学数据分析,唯一保持不断变化的景象就是越来越糟的环境。
作为首席科学政策专家之一,哈佛大学的约翰·霍尔德伦指出,在所有环境问题中全球气候变化是最危险的,因为气候就像一个信封,保障其中所有自然生态系统正常运作。
如果这一包裹层遭到严重破坏,我们就会“对环境影响下人类福祉的每一个层面产生不利影响。
”斯特恩认为造成这一重大破坏的成因很多,包括:如洪水、干旱、飓风、热浪、大暴雨等极端天气现象所造成的损失越来越大;由于保险费用更高或更不稳定,此类现象可能影响全球金融市场;同时存在突发大规模气候变化的风险。
斯特恩还指出,迫于环境条件恶化,经济增长缓慢,生产力下降,气候变化对环境和人类健康可能带来哪些后果。

硕士综合英语教程1参考译文Unit 1创建低碳经济1.对于主要由人类活动而迅速积累的温室气体引发了全球变暖这一事实,没有人再持有异议。
除非我们协同一致,快速转向低碳经济,否则全球变暖的趋势将会愈演愈烈。
这一危机日益彰显逼近。
正如获得2007年诺贝尔和平奖的联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会(IPCC)主席拉金德拉·帕乔里所声称的:“如果在2012年之前我们还没有采取行动,那就为时已晚了。
我们在未来两到三年中的所作所为将决定我们的未来。
这是决定性的时刻。
”2.同工业化前的水平相比,地球平均温度已经上升了0.8摄氏度(1.4华氏度左右),速度为自1975年以来每十年增加0.2摄氏度;如果我们仍然一意孤行,那么温度还会继续发生永久性的变化。
这种温度变化听起来似乎不大,但事实并非如此。
最后一个冰河时代时的全球平均气温不过比现今低约5.4摄氏度(9.7华氏度)。
3.很多权威的气候学家们都曾发出过这样的警告:如果我们现在的温度超过工业化前2摄氏度(3.6华氏度)的话,我们将会迈进一个危险的未知国度。
没有人能知道到底全球变暖具体达到多少度会变得无法控制,并且造成像干旱、洪水、飓风以及热浪等自然灾害的逐渐恶化,造成诸如格陵兰岛或西南极洲大冰原坍塌以及伴随的全球海平面上升等意外的灾难性变化。
但是我们还依然在我们唯一的家园上不断做着危险而又不受约束的尝试,这也是为什么越来越多的年轻人开始将气候变化视为他们这一代人的一项挑战。
4.《华盛顿邮报》4月刊报导到:“对于许多儿童和青年而言,全球气候变暖无异于当今的原子弹。
对于环境危机的担忧正影响着这一代人,正如经济大萧条、第二次世界大战、越南战争和冷战等等挥之不去的‘战争游戏’影响了20世纪的灵魂一样。
”5.有些可怕的预测可能并不会发生,但考虑到那些最优秀的科学家们发出的警告,如果我们再冒险尝试将是极不负责任的做法。
科学家告诉我们,如果我们不尽快采取行动,想要避免全球变暖引发的最严重恶果则为时晚矣。

Many people feel like they have no energy and can't concentrate. Others feel irritable all the time for no apparent reason.Most people who have gone through one episode of depression will, sooner or later, have another one. The symptoms vary from person to person, but if you feel "down" for more than two weeks, and these feelings are interfering with your daily life, you may be clinically depressed.The common symptoms including:*poor concentration and memory*withdrawal from social situations and activities*an inability to experience pleasure in activities that were formerly enjoyed*preoccupied with thoughts and feelings of worthlessness, helplessness, self-hatred, etc.*thoughts of death or suicide, etc.Learning to recognize these early triggers or symptoms and working with your doctor will help to keep the depression from worsening.

Hurry, hurry, hurry!Christopher: Are we safe?Chris: Yeah, I think so.Section Two Global ReadingI. Main ideaWhat is the story narrated in the text about?This narrative essay narrates and describes an unusual and unforgettable phase of the writer’s life, during which she experienced deep depression, voluntarily received clinical treatment, conquered the illness in the end, and benefited a great deal from the experiences associated with her suffering.II. Structural analysis1. How are the events of the essay arranged?The narration mostly follows a chronological order, but a few flashbacks are inserted in Paragraph 3 and 6.Section Three Detailed ReadingText IThe Light of DepressionAlice Johnson1.Twice, I have seen my father cry. The first time, I was 12, and my sister, Jenny, was Shewas diagnosed with juvenile diabetes and needed further testing. When we arrived at the hospital, my dad walked around to her side of the car, gathered her into his arms and held her.None of us understood what was happening to my sister’s body, but when I heard my strong dad’s voice break with tears, I knew we were on a new and unexpected path.2.Almost 10 years later, in the fall following my college graduation, I was the one myfather gathered into his arms. At 22, I was diagnosed with clinical depression and voluntarily admitted to a psychiatric hospital. At a time in my life when the world was supposed to be opening up to me, I found myself retreating. Apathetic, uncaring, tired, and with no particular vision for any future, I drifted into a world without hope. My family and I knew I needed help.3.As a child, I had great passion for life. The simplest of pleasures brought unexplainablejoy. I seldom demonstrated a melancholic personality. In fact, my parents learned that birthdays, Christmas and any reason for celebration would find me in excitement. I loved life, and I loved being alive. When depression struck, I was dropped into a world where wearing my own skin was foreign and ill-fitting.4.My mom says that one of the hardest days of her life was the day I checked into thehospital. My personal belongings were rummaged through, and I headed down the long hallway to doctors and a treatment team that became my “family” for the next month. Her drive home, leaving me behind, was heartbreaking. She was left to wonder and guess at why her daughter was in so much pain and why she couldn’t fix it this time.5.I was numb, trying to see through a haze that had settled upon what once was vivid andbright. All color had seeped from a life that used to hold such joy. Some peopl e didn’t understand my depression. They regarded it as a bad case of the Sunday evening blues believing that if I tried harder and stopped feeling sorry for myself, I would “get better.” But I wasn’t just dealing with apathy toward routine.I couldn’t remedy being sick with a strenuous run, a good movie, or simply the passing of time. Depression transcended my circumstances and invaded my soul. It was more like a day terror —like waking up to a nightmare. Clinical depression painted my world black while screaming quietly that I was worthless.6.I remember driving home from work the week before I checked into the hospital. Myco-workers hadn’t noticed any difference in my performance or behavior. I was great at keeping up appearances. I was good at performing. But that evening, I recall wishing I weren’t alive, wishing my car would turn down an empty road and I could disappear. Upon arriving home, I headed straight for my room and slipped under my covers, hoping to sleep. I wanted to escape life because it hurt to breathe.7.By the end of my first week at the hospital, I had made up my mind to leave. It wasn’tworking. I packed my bags, headed to the front desk, and announced that I was calling my parents to come and pick me up. But my treatment team told me I needed to stay. Defeated and scared, I returned to my room, unpacked my bags and cried myself to sleep. It was time to get honest with myself.8.I was angry. Me, happy Alice, with so much going for her. Stripped of the world’saccolades, it didn’t m atter what school I had attended, where I had vacationed, what awards I had won. It didn’t matter who I knew, didn’t know, or thought I knew. What mattered to those surrounding me was that I was honest about my feelings. They didn’t have to be pretty. I di dn’t have to look good. I could just be — and that was enough.9.It was the kindness, sympathy, love and truth demonstrated in the hospital that beganunlocking my wounds, hurts and distorted thinking. I was learning from the worn lives around me. Lives I would have once felt pity for or wanted to distance myself from. They were the ones who possessed strength and courage. They had suffered abuse, neglect, addiction and illnesses. They felt misplaced and forgotten; they were told they didn’t matter. I cam e from a family filled with love, but as I and others in my hospital “family” shared our suffering, I found I needed their love.10.Getting help and getting rid of the junk cluttering my mind were part of getting better.Hope came gradually, and with small steps slowly returned feeling and clarity. I was changing.My thinking was being altered.I was given a truer sense of who I was: a young woman who needed to be loved for herself, not for what she could offer — not for how she could make you feel. Being honest in the hidden places of my heart. Taking personal responsibility. And slowly, the desire to live, the courage to want to live, began to return. Once truth reveals deception, the lie can no longer deceive unless we choose to let it.11. A year and a half after my release from the hospital, I drove along a country road. Themoon was bright. The stars brighter. Snow gave a fresh milky coat to the trees, and the night air was full and dark. I felt so alive. I hadn’t believed there would ever be something good enough or rich enough to make up for the pain and darkness I had known. My pain had been deep. But on this quiet stretch of road, I knew it had all been worth it. I knew that life was different because of my experience. Suffering had painted color into my life, and I could be thankful.Paragraphs 1-3Questions1. The writer stresses at the very beginning that when her sister was suffering from juvenile diabetes, her father cried bitterly for the first time. When do you think her father cried for the second time? (Paragraph 2)It is not difficult to infer that the writer’s father cried for the second time when the writer was diagnosed with clinical depression.2. Would you describe the writer’s personality as a child before she was seized with depre ssion? (Paragraph 3)As a child, the writer had a great passion for life and enjoyed being alive. The simplest of pleasures brought her great joy. She seldom demonstrated a melancholic personality. Any reason for celebration would find her in great excitement.Words and Expressions1. diagnose:v.1) find out the nature of an illness by observing its symptomse.g. The illness was diagnosed as measles.2) find out what the cause of a fault is, after doing tests, examinations, etc.e.g. The book diagnoses our present economic ills, explaining what is wrong with the economy.
