Rats and Men"Insoluble" ProblemsProfessor N. R. F. Maier of the University of Michigan performed a series of experiments several years ago in which "neurosis" is induced in rats. The rats are first trained to jump off the edge of a platform at one of two doors.If the rat jumps to the right, the door holds fast, and it bumps its nose and falls into a net; if it jumps to the left, the door opens, and the rat finds a dish of food. When the rats are well trained to this reaction, the situation is changed. The food is put behind the other door, so that in order to get their reward they now have to jump to the right instead of to the left. (Other changes, such as marking the two doors in different ways, may also be introduced by the experimenter.)If the rat fails to figure out the new system, so that each time it jumps it never knows whether it is going to get food or bump its nose, it finally gives up and refuses to jump at all. At this stage, Dr. Maier says, "Many rats prefer to starve rather than make a choice."密执安大学的N.R.F. 麦耶教授几年前做过一系列可以诱导鼠产生“神经官能症”的实验。

研究生英语阅读教程(提高级)第三版课文全文参考译文第一课漏油经济:低估风险回想起来,模式似乎很清楚。

早在深水地平线钻机自爆前的很多年,BP 作为一家石油公司为了省钱甘冒安全的风险就已经声名狼藉。

2005 年得克萨斯州炼油厂爆炸中有15 名工人丧生。

联邦监管机构和前国务卿詹姆斯·贝克领导的专门小组认为,削减成本是事故的部分原因。

第二年,阿拉斯加腐蚀的管道将石油漏入普拉德霍湾。

就连乔·巴顿,对全球变暖持怀疑态度,来自得克萨斯州的共和党众议员,都谴责BP 管理人员“对安全和环境问题表现得漠不关心。

”这种冷漠大部分源于对利润的过度追求,不管出现什么情况。

但似乎也还有另一个因素在起作用,一个更普遍的人性的因素。

BP 的管理人员在估计似乎不太可能发生、但一旦发生却会带来巨大损失的事件真正会发生的机会时,犯了一个可怕的错误。

也许理解这一点最简单的方法就是思考一下BP 高管们如今的想法。

显然,考虑到清理费用和对BP 声誉的影响,高管们真希望可以回到过去,多花些钱让深水地平线更安全。

他们没有增加这笔费用就表明他们认为钻机在当时的状态下不会出问题。

尽管针对BP 高管的所有批评可能都是他们应得的,但是他们绝不是唯一艰难应对这种低概率、高成本事件的人。

几乎每个人都会如此。

“这些正是我们人类处理时很难做出合理反应的一类事件。

”哈佛大学环境经济学家罗伯特·斯塔文说。

我们经常犯两种基本且性质相反的错误。

当一件事情是很难想象的,我们往往会低估它的可能性。

这就是众所周知的黑天鹅(稀有之物)。

大多数在深水地平线工作的人可能从未经历过钻井平台爆炸。

因此他们认为这不会发生,至少不会发生在他们身上。

同样,不久以前,伯南克和格林斯潘也喜欢称全国房地产市场没有泡沫,因为以前从未有过泡沫。

华尔街交易员也持同样观点,他们建立的数学模型根本不存在房价下降的可能性。

许多购房者签订了负担不起的抵押贷款,相信一旦其价格上涨,他们可以再融资或卖掉房子。

Lesson 11.昨日发生的恐怖主义活动使美国人的生活暗淡无光,在他们的生活中留下了印迹,并永远地改变了他们的生活。

2.佛罗里达州立大学创伤心理学教授查尔斯·费格里说:“我们得学一学其它许多国家曾经经历过的东西,那就是从文化上和在全国范围内来应对恐惧。

”他还说:“我们正在体验恐惧是怎样起作用的。

”3.美国是一个一向以开放自豪甚至洋洋得意的国家,在这里,人们可以独自在美国国会大楼里闲庭信步,而现在,恐怖袭击很有可能迫使美国人处处小心,惶惶不可终日。

其实我们很大程度上已经是这样了。

许多政府大楼的前门装设的金属探测器已然成为一道风景线,大部分的办公大楼里也必备保安。

4.报复有很大的危险,会引发和在中东及北爱尔兰一样的紧张的暴力和反暴力的恶性攀升。

与那些不得不在暴力中学习如何生存的国家不同,“我们是新手”曾在南斯拉夫训练过创伤急救队的项目负责人费格里博士说:“我所担心的是惩罚,报复,种族主义和排斥少数民族的举动会过于偏激,适得其反。

”5.对于恐怖主义的恐惧会使美国人接受比现在更多的来自政府的监控,例如在运动竞赛场上高架的摄象机。

哈佛大学法学院教授威廉姆斯·斯汤资说:“经过目前这些事件,我们将发现,无论是公众’还是法庭,都会在更大程度上接受某些警察的策略。

”Lesson 51.戴维先到一步,事后他气愤地向我发难说当他告诉领班准备和谁一起吃饭时,领班的语气骤然逆转。

一瞬间就从“这是个什么人?”变成“这边有请,先生。

”当我们赶到时,拍照的人已经在饭店外忙个不停了。

戴维开始嘲笑我是伦敦这家高级饭店里的知名人物。

这时,我俩向屋内望去并同时看到了我们的偶像。

2.我的生活中——与维多利亚一起的生活中——一件美好的事情就是有时那些让我在见面之前紧张不安,在见面时张口结舌的人,最终却成为我的朋友。

3.他们非常慷慨:我在意大利见到埃尔顿的那个下午,几乎他所做的第一件事就是把他们在法国南部的住处提供给维多利亚和我以便我们一旦需要远离烦乱的生活时有个落脚的地方。

Unit1在美国人们庆祝母亲节与父亲节,然而父母亲所受到的礼物却是不尽相同的,这篇文章研究这个问题的原因。

我们必须正视这么一个事实,丝绸领带伤害了感情。

(人们在表达感情是受到某种约束)尽管上个周末父亲节使这个五月充满了150万张纪念卡和多得使线路堵塞的长途电话,但是父亲们都明白,父亲节也是收到对方付费电话和收到引以为傲最新款领带最多的一天。

虽然老爸们不介意父亲节母亲节的差异,但是这却反映了父母亲在子女成长中的所扮演的各自不同角色。

Scott Coltrane说道,父亲节半正式的礼物说明了我们对父亲情感的矛盾的文化。

Wellford,s,c感情丰富,但是他承认在父亲节上他很难将他的感情完全地表达出来。

随着年龄的增长,他对父亲越来越有距离感,看他更像个英雄。

作为成年人他说,我对他的情感越来越深,但是我仍然会送他幽默卡和一些实用的礼物。

随着时间的改变,对父亲的态度也随之发生改变。

例如,Mr.Bridges他自己就一个已经需要照顾三个孩子的父亲。

Mr.Bridges说道:“我整年里每天都是父亲节”他并不介意这个周末他得到什么。

他经常将信藏在他孩子的背包里,告诉他们他已他们为骄傲。

最近,他的小儿子将写着“我爱你,老爸”的课堂作业藏在了他的公文包里,以作为得到赞许的回应。

Mr.Bridges说:“那比买卡片好多了”。

象Mr.Bridges这样的男人,在孩子生活中起如此积极作用,在万神殿里,父亲节的地位应该得到提升。

Ralph LaRossa《现代父权》的作者,细致地将父权文化与父权行为进行了比较。

但是,也有人说,美国人庆祝父权已经与今天的老爸们并驾齐驱了。

Frederic Brunel说:“性别角色与性别行为是随着时间的改变而改变的”。

这里有许多可能已经正在发生的标志。

例如,沃尔玛商品的特点,很少因老爸对尿片的糊涂而改变,而更多的是直面情感。

Bella Sant减肥浴场,推出了一种无微不至的项目包括修指甲和美容;以及提供令人安神的喷泉疗养和欧洲香皂。

LESSON 11.因为英语是个杀手,正是英语造成了坎伯兰语,康沃尔语,诺恩语和马恩语等语言的消亡.在这些岛上还有相当多的人使用在英语到来之前就已存在的语言.然而,英语在日常生活中无处不在.所有的人或几乎所有的人都懂英语.英语对现存的凯尔特语:爱尔兰语、苏格兰盖尔语及威尔士语的威胁是如此之大,它们的未来岌岌可危。

2.同时,他认为这些政策和他称之为语言歧视(和种族歧、,性别歧视的情况类似")的偏见密切相关。

在菲利普森看来,在以白人英语为主导的世界,最重要的机构和个人(有意或无意地)鼓励或者至少是容忍了(肯定没有反对)英语霸权主义式的传播。

这种传播始于三个世纪之前的经济及殖民扩张。

3.总的来说,我们现在或多或少地把这些语言看作有利的语言。

在谈到与之相关的文化及其为世界所做的贡献时,我们常怀有崇敬与赞赏,而且这样做也没有太大的风险,因为这些语言现在已不会构成什么威胁。

4.然而,许多人把英语看成是一件幸事。

在此,我暂且不谈任何世界语言所具有的明显优势,例如广泛的通信网,强大的文化传媒体系,及强有力的文化教育机构。

5.讲英语的南非英国后裔并不强烈反对种族隔离政权,而黑人反对力量,其成员讲多种语言,在初期软弱无力且缺乏组织。

6.这一象征表明这种世界通用语的使用者应充分发掘这一幸事为我们带来的好处,同时尽可能避免招来灾难。

LESSON 21.年初布什总统签署了一项《不让一个孩子落后》的重大法案,誓言要把“困在那些教学质量不佳又不进行改革的学校里的孩子”解救出来.2007 年7月1日美国教育部宣布有8652所学校被列为“长期教学质量低下”的学校,现在这些学校中的学生必须在今后的几天内考虑决定他们是否要转学, 同时各个学区也在忙着为符合转学条件的学生提供帮助和服务以抓住选择的机会。

2.对于那些在教学改革旋涡中挣扎的学校的校长、老师和学生来说,这一法案的直接后果则是迷惑与混乱。

他们认为该法案制订的教学改革标准太高而又没有说明各学区如何达到这些标准。

Unit 1Text A 如何变“末流”为“一流”:哈佛对捐赠大户的回报1 初春的一个夜晚,暖意融融。

一群公司执行官、律师、石油巨子、理财经纪人、身价不菲的咨询师以及巨额财产继承人,悄然走出查尔斯宾馆和哈佛饭店的套房。

这些商界显要,男的个个头发花白,身着灰色西装──有的拄着手杖,有的则由于长期在哈佛运动队或网球队锻炼,一副运动员身材,充满活力、脸色红润;女的戴着丝巾,身穿苗条的黑色长裤,但其中几乎没有一张黑人和拉美人的面孔,他们穿过一道普通的门,走进安尼博格餐厅。

此次聚会,校内没有通报,媒体也不得报道。

2平常简朴的新生餐厅今天用连翘花和郁金香装点一新,客人们品尝着鸡尾酒、葡萄酒和牛柳、蟹黄蛋糕、芦笋尖等开胃小菜,享受着时任哈佛校长劳伦斯·撒莫斯的殷勤。

有几位客人谈论着海斯特布丁俱乐部最近的那场演出,这个俱乐部是一个学生戏剧协会,每年春天都要上演一场音乐滑稽戏,由哈佛的男生男扮女装参加表演。

3过了一会儿,布置在二楼阳台的哈佛乐队开始演奏“万名哈佛人”,客人们各自入席,烛光晚宴开始。

酒足饭饱之后,客人们兴高采烈,对撒莫斯校长的餐后致词报以阵阵掌声。

唯一例外的是,撒莫斯校长简要介绍学校计划扩大低收入家庭子女的招生,为年收入低于四万美元家庭的子女上哈佛提供免费教育,此时,校长似乎在等待在场贵宾们赞许的掌声,但竟然没有掌声。

我分析,这种令人尴尬的沉默传递了一个信号,甚至可称为威胁:你要是扩大招收低收入家庭的子女而将我们这些人的孩子拒之门外,我们就会停止数以百万计的捐款。

44月8日的这顿晚宴,拉开了哈佛大学学校资源委员会(COUR)2005年年会的序幕。

该委员会或许是高等学校里一个最具财力的顾问团,但鲜为人知,媒体亦少有提及。

实际上COUR不是一般意义上的委员会──它并不正式制定学校政策或发表正式意见──但撒莫斯同其他任何一任哈佛校长一样,离不开COUR的支持。

该委员会成员均为哈佛最大的捐赠人,他们捐赠的资金构成哈佛2005财政年度255亿捐款的主要部分,使得哈佛成为美国高校中收到捐款最多的学校,比位居第二的耶鲁大学高出100亿美元。

第三课 A焦虑的另一个名字就是挑战詹姆斯林肯克利尔(1)在大二结束、升大三之前的那年暑假,我有个机会可以到阿根廷的一个大牧场去打工。

我的室友 Ted 的爸爸是做养牛生意的,他想让 Ted 去学学。

Ted 说如果能让他带一个朋友去,他就去。

他选择了我。

一想到能到南美洲阿根廷的大平原去度过两个月传奇式的生活就让人兴奋。

可是我转念又一想,我从未远离过新英格兰地区(在美国的东北部),而且我刚上大学时前几周还想家呢。

如果到了一个陌生的国家会怎么样呢?语言不通怎么办?另外,我已经答应我弟弟,暑假的时候要教他开帆船。

我越想越沮丧。

晚上睡觉醒来时浑身冒冷汗。

(2)最后我拒绝了 Ted 的邀请。

可是当 Ted 邀请别人去的时候,我又追悔莫及。

两周后我回到了家还是干我以前暑假打工的工作——在当地的超市里开货箱上货,我感到心情很不好。

我因为害怕,拒绝了我想干的工作,结果感到很郁闷。

有好长一段时间我都缓不过劲来。

等秋季开学时,听说 Ted 和他的朋友暑假过得非常开心,我心里还是不高兴。

(3)这个不愉快的夏天最终给了我一个非常有意义的教训,后来我把它当作生活的一个原则,那就是宁可做使你害怕的事,也不要做那些让你抑郁的事。

(4)当然,我这里指的不是严重的焦虑和抑郁状态,因为严重的焦虑和抑郁状态是需要治疗的。

我这里指的是我们一般称之为怯场,心里不踏实或神经非常紧张的那种状态,比如说我们找工作面试时、我们要组织一次大型的晚会时、或我们必须在办公室做重要报告时的那种感觉。

我指的这种郁闷就是心情不好,感觉很沮丧,对什么事也不感兴趣,什么事也干不进去、也没精力去干。

(5)在我大学四年级快结束时,也遇到了这种情况。

因为毕业临近,我开始尝试考虑把写作作为我的终生职业。

但是我的一个教授极力劝我考研究生,目的是今后可以以教书为职业。

我踌躇了。

一想到以写作为生就使人感到害怕,我想比暑假到阿根廷大平原上打工还可怕。

我想来想去,做了决定又放弃。

突然我意识到每次我想放弃写作,心情都会特别沉重,很沮丧。

”3. In a country long proud and even boastful of its openness—a country where an ordinary citizen can stroll through the U.S. Capitol unescorted—the terrorist attacks are likely to force Americans to a lot of that.

Skimming involves quickly reading through a text to get a general idea of its content. Scanning, on the other hand, involves searching for specific information by quickly moving the eyes over the text. These strategies help students identify the main points, key details, and relevant information in an academic text.1.2 Annotating and Note-TakingAnnotating and note-taking are crucial skills for effective reading comprehension. Annotation involves underlining or highlighting important information, writing brief summaries or key words in the margins, and asking questions to engage with the text. Note-taking entails jotting down key points, organizing them in a logical manner, and using abbreviations and symbols to save time. These techniques aid in remembering and reviewing the material.Unit 2: Critical Reading and Thinking2.1 Analyzing ArgumentsCritical reading requires the analysis of arguments presented in academic texts. Students must identify the main claim, supporting evidence, and logical fallacies in an argument. They need to assess the validity and credibility of the information provided and evaluate the strength of the author's reasoning. This skill allows students to engage with the text critically and form their own opinions.2.2 Evaluating SourcesEvaluating sources is crucial to ensure the credibility and reliability of information. Students must assess the author's credentials, the publication date, the reputation of the publisher, and any potential biases. They need to consider whether the source is scholarly, peer-reviewed, or from a reputable institution. This skill helps students differentiate between credible sources and unreliable ones.Unit 3: Research Skills3.1 Effective Library UseUsing library resources effectively is essential for successful research. Students must learn how to navigate library catalogs, databases, and search engines to find relevant sources. They need to understand how to use advanced search techniques, such as Boolean operators and truncation, to refine their search results. This skill enables students to locate and retrieve the appropriate materialsfor their research.3.2 Proper Citation and ReferencingProper citation and referencing are necessary to acknowledge the sources used in academic writing. Students must learn the rules and conventions of various citation styles, such as APA, MLA, or Chicago. They need to understand how to format in-text citations, create reference lists, and avoid plagiarism. This skill ensures the integrity and credibility of their research.Unit 4: Academic Writing Skills4.1 Essay Structure and OrganizationMastering essay structure and organization is essential for effective academic writing. Students should learn how to create a clear and concise introduction, develop coherent body paragraphs, and present a logical conclusion. They need to understand the importance of topic sentences, supporting evidence, and transition words in constructing an argument. This skill enhances the clarity and coherence of their written work.4.2 Writing Style and VocabularyDeveloping an appropriate writing style and expanding vocabulary are crucial for academic writing. Students must aim for a formal tone, avoid colloquial expressions, and use discipline-specific terminology. They need to use a variety of sentence structures, demonstrate critical thinking, and present their ideas in a clear and concise manner. This skill helps students effectively communicate their thoughts and arguments.注:以上译文仅供参考,具体翻译请根据需要和语境进行调整和修正。

第十课 A我和松鼠妈妈谈条件玛尔格特戴弗林(1)我和我的丈夫最近从郊区搬到了城里。

(2)两周前我正在书房读书的时候,听到了一阵骚乱声。

为了保护我们新婚的家不受入侵者的骚扰,我拿起了致命的防卫武器——一把扫帚,小心地下了楼。

(3)我走到外面想看看入侵者是从什么地方来的。

正当我四处寻找的时候,看见了这个坏家伙从门廊的屋顶上出现了。

根据它弄出的声音我原以为是一只 50 磅重的浣熊,但是我错了,它只是一只半磅重的灰色的毛茸茸的松鼠。

我拿起扫把嘘声将它赶走,但是第二天我听见它又来了。

(4)我上网搜索了有关松鼠的信息,我发现因为松鼠是啮齿类动物,它们的牙齿会不断地长长,因此它们就必须经常啃食东西来把牙齿磨短。

我了解到它们经常会啃电线,这样房子就有失火的危险。

这倒是挺烦人的。

因此我让我们家的副总裁——也就是我的丈夫——打电话给野生动物管理人员。

星期六的时候,他给第一家公司打电话,他们安排下星期四来处理。

然后他又给另一家公司打电话,他们说可以在星期一上午派人来看看。

(5)星期一上午来了两个抽烟的人。

他们抽完了烟,就大摇大摆地走进了前门廊。

“喂,小夫人!”他们其中的一位摆着一付约翰威恩式样子问到:“捣蛋鬼在什么地方?”(6)我很不自然地指了指门廊的顶部,现在那儿放了一小块写着“欢迎来访”的脚垫。

我看见了洞里的育儿室,而这两个家伙把小松鼠掏出来扔到了雪地上。

我再一次强调让他们不要伤害她。

(7)他们怒气冲冲地说:“我们是慈善学会推荐的”,但是我注意到了他们把电棍放回了卡车,取而代之,拿出了一种有春天香味的除臭剂,在松鼠的窝里喷了几下。

他们告诉我松鼠不喜欢这种味道,因此会逃走。

对此我有点怀疑,因为这种味道挺好闻的。

(8)没有看到松鼠妈妈,所以他们就把洞给堵上了,然后跟我要了一张 250美元的支票,一溜烟地跑了。

他们还给了我一张保修卡。

我是比较容易受骗的那种人,因此我想跟我打交道的这家公司还算是挺有诚信的。

(9)他们走了不一会儿松鼠妈妈大老远的购物回来了。

研究生英语阅读教程(提高版)第三版第六课原文

研究⽣英语阅读教程(提⾼版)第三版第六课原⽂A Beautiful MindSylvia Nasar[1]John Forbes Nash, Jr. —mathematical genius, inventor of a theory of rational behavior, visionary of the thinking machine —had been sitting with his visitor, also a mathematician, for nearly half an hour. It was late on a weekday afternoon in the spring of 1959, and, though it was only May, uncomfortably warm. Nash was slumped in an armchair in one corner of the hospital lounge, carelessly dressed in a nylon shirt that hung limply over his unbelted trousers. His powerful frame was slack as a rag doll’s, his finely molded features expressionless. He had been staring dully at a spot immediately in front of the left foot of Harvard professor George Mackey, hardly moving except to brush his long dark hair away from his forehead in a fitful, repetitive motion. His visitor sat upright, oppressed by the silence, acutely conscious that the doors to the room were locked. Mackey finally could contain himself no longer. His voice was slightly querulous, but he strained to be gentle. “How could you,” began Mackey, “how could you, a mathematician, a man devoted to reason and logical proof... how could you believe that extraterrestrials are sending you messages? How could you believe that you are being recruited by aliens from outer space to save the world? How could you ...?”[2]Nash looked up at last and fixed Mackey with an unblinking stare as cool and dispassionate as that of any bird or snake.“Because,” Nash said slowly in his soft, reasonable southern drawl, as if talking to himself, “the ideas I had about supernatural beings came to me the same way that my mathematical ideas did. So I took them seriously.”[3]The young genius from Bluefield, West Virginia—handsome, arrogant, and highly eccentric—burst onto the mathematical scene in 1948. Over the next decade, a decade as notable for its supreme faith in human rationality as for its dark anxieties about mankind's survival, Nash proved himself, in the words of the eminent geometer Mikhail Gromov, “the most remarkable mathematician of the second half of the century.”Games of strategy, economic rivalry, computer architecture, the shape of the universe, the geometry of imaginary spaces, the mystery of prime numbers—all engaged his wide-ranging imagination. His ideas were of the deep and wholly unanticipated kind that pushes scientific thinking in new directions.[4]Geniuses, the mathematician Paul Halmos wrote, “are of two kinds: the ones who are just like all of us, but very much more so, and the ones who, apparently, have an extra human spark. We can all run, and some of us can run the mile in less than 4 minutes; but there is nothing that most of us can do that compares with the creation of the Great G-minor Fugue.”Nash’s genius was of that mysterious variety more often associated with music and art than with the oldest of all sciences. It wasn’t merely that his mind worked faster, that his memory was more retentive, or that his power of concentration was greater. The flashes of intuition were nonrational. Like other great mathematical intuitionists —Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann, Jules Henri Poincare, Srinivasa Ramanujan—Nash saw the vision first, constructing the laborious proofs long afterward. But even after he’d try to explain some astonishing result, the actual route he had taken remained a mystery to others who tried to follow his reasoning. Donald Newman, a mathematician who knew Nash at MIT in the 1950s, used to say about him that “everyone else would climb a peak by looking for a path somewhere on the mountain. Nash would climb another mountain altogether and from that distant peak would shine a searchlight back onto the first peak”[5]No one was more obsessed with originality, more disdainful of authority, or more jealous of his independence. As a young man he was surrounded by the high priests of twentieth-century science—Albert Einstein, John von Neumann, and Norbert Wiener—he joined no school, became no one's disciple, got along largely without guides or followers. In almost everything he did—from game theory to geometry—he thumbed his nose at the received wisdom, current fashions, established methods. He almost always worked alone, in his head, usually walking, often whistling Bach. Nash acquired his knowledge of mathematics not mainly from studying what other mathematicians had discovered, but by rediscovering their truths for himself. Eager to astound, he was always on the lookout for the really big problems. When he focused on some new puzzle, he saw dimensions that people who really knew the subject (he never did) initially dismissed as naive or wrongheaded. Even as a student, his indifference to others' skepticism, doubt, and ridicule was awesome.[6]Nash’s faith in rationality and the power of pure thought was extreme, even for a very young mathematician and even for the new age of computers, space travel, and nuclear weapons. Einstein once chided him for wishing to amend relativity theory without studying physics. His heroes were solitary thinkers and supermen like Newton and Nietzsche. Computers and science fiction were his passions. He considered “thinking machines”, as he called them, superior in some ways to human beings. At one point, he became fascinated by the possibility that drugs could heighten physical and intellectual performancedd9 He was beguiled by the idea of alien races of hyper-rational beings who had taught themselves to disregard all emotion. 10 Compulsively rational, he wished to turn life’s decisions—whether to take the first elevator or wait for the next one, where to bank his money, what job to accept, whether to marry—into calculations of advantage and disadvantage, algorithms or mathematical rules divorced from emotion, convention, and tradition. Even the small act of saying an automatic hello to Nash in a hallway could elicit a furious “Why are you saying hello to me?”[7]His contemporaries, on the whole, found him immensely strange. They described him as “aloof ”, “haughty”, “without affect”, “detached”, “spooky”, “isolated”and “queer”, Nash mingled rather than mixed with his peers. Preoccupied with his own private reality, he seemed not to share their mundane concerns. His manner—slightly cold, a bit superior, somewhat secretive—suggested something “mysterious and unnatural”. His remoteness was punctuated by flights of grrulousness about outer space and geopolitical trends, childish pranks, and unpredictable eruptions of anger. But these outbursts were, more often than not, as enigmatic as his silences. “He is not one of us”was a constant refrain. Amathematician at the Institute for Advanced Study remembers meeting Nash for the first time at a crowded student party at Princeton:I noticed him very definitely among a lot of other people who were there. He was sitting on the floor in a half-circle discussing something. He made me feel uneasy. He gave me a peculiar feeling. I had a feeling of a certain strangeness. He was different in some way. I was not aware of the extent of his talent. I had no idea he would contribute as much as he really did.[8]But he did contribute, in a big way. The marvelous paradox was that the ideas themselves were not obscure. In 1958, Fortune singled Nash out for his achievements in game theory, algebraic geometry, and nonlinear theory, calling him the most brilliant of the younger generation of new ambidextrous mathematicians who worked in both pure and applied mathematics. Nash's insight into the dynamics of human rivalry —his theory of rational conflict and cooperation —was to become one of the most influential ideas of the twentieth century, transforming the young science of economics the way that Mendel’s ideas of genetic transmission, Darwin’s model of natural selection, and Newton’s celestial mechanics reshaped biology and physics in their day.。

Bill ClintonHillary Rodham Clinton[1] Bill Clinton was hard to miss in the autumn of 1970. He arrived at Y ale Law School looking more like a Viking than a Rhodes Scholar returning from two years at Oxford. He was tall and handsome somewhere beneath that reddish brown beard and curly mane of hair. He also had a vitality that seemed to shoot out of his pores. When I first saw him in the law school’s student lounge, he was holding forth before a rapt audience of fellows tudents. As I walked by, I heard him say: “. . . and not only that, we grow the biggest watermelons in the world!” I asked a friend, “Who is that?” [2]“Oh, that’s Bill Clinton,” he said. “He’s from Arkansas, and that’s all he ever talks about.”[3]We would run into each other around campus, but we never actually met until one night at the Y ale law library the following spring. I was studying in the library, and Bill was standing out in the hall talking to another student, Jeff Gleckel, who was trying to persuade Bill to write for the Y ale Law Journal. I noticed that he kept looking over at me. He had been doing a lot of that. So I stood up from the desk, walked over to him and said, “If you’re going to keep looking at me, and I’m going to keep lookin g back, we might as well be introduced. I’m Hillary Rodham.” That was it. The way Bill tells the story, he couldn’t remember his own name.[4]We didn’t talk to each other again until the last day of classes in the spring of 1971. We happened to walk out of Professor Thomas Emerson’s Political and Civil Rights course at the same time. Bill asked me where I was going. I was on the way to the registrar’s office to sign up for the next semester’s classes. He told me he was heading there too. As we walked, he complimented my long flower-patterned skirt. When I told him that my mother had made it, he asked about my family and where I had grown up. We waited in line until we got to the registrar. She looked up and said, “Bill, what are you doing here? You’ve already registered.” I laughed when he confessed that he just wanted to spend time with me, and we went for a long walk that turned into our first date.[5]We both had wanted to see a Mark Rothko exhibit at the Y ale Art Gallery but, because of a labor disp ute, some of the university’s buildings, including the museum, were closed. As Bill and I walked by, he decided he could get us in if we offered to pick up the litter that had accumulated in the gallery’s courtyard. Watching him talk our way in was the fir st time I saw his persuasiveness in action. We had the entire museum to ourselves. We wandered through the galleries talking about Rothko and twentieth-century art. I admit to being surprised at his interest in and knowledge of subjects that seemed, at first, unusual for a Viking from Arkansas. We ended up in the museum’s courtyard, where I sat in the large lap of Henry Moore’s sculpture Draped Seated Woman while we talked until dark. I invited Bill tothe party my roommate, Kwan Kwan Tan, and I were throwing in our dorm room that nigh t to celebrate the end of classes. Kwan Kwan, an ethnic Chinese who had come from Burma to Yale to pursue graduate legal studies, was a delightful living companion and a graceful performer of Burmese dance. She and her husband, Bill Wang, another student, remain friends.[6]Bill came to our party but hardly said a word. Since I didn’t know him that well, I thought he must be shy, perhaps not very socially adept or just uncomfortable. I didn’t have much hope for us as a coupl e. Besides, I had a boyfriend at the time, and we had weekend plans out of town. When I came back to Yale late Sunday, Bill called and heard me coughing and hacking from the bad cold I had picked up.[7]“You sound terrible,” he said. About thirty minutes later, he knocked on my door, bearing chicken soup and orange juice. He came in, and he started talking. He could converse about anything―from African politics to countr y and western music. I asked him why he had been so quiet at my party. [8]“Because I was interested in learning more about you and your friends,”he replied.[9]I was starting to realize that this young man from Arkansas was much m ore complex than first impressions might suggest. To this day, he can astoni sh me with the connections he weaves between ideas and words and how he makes it all sound like music. I still love the way he thinks and the way helooks. One of the firs tthings I noticed about Bill was the shape of his hands . His wrists are narrow and his fingers tapered and deft, like those of a piani st or a surgeon. When we first met as students, I loved watching him turn th e pages of a book. Now his hands are showing signs of age after thousands of handshakes and golf swings and miles of signatures. They are, like their owner, weathered but still expressive, attractive and resilient.[10]Soon after Bill came to my rescue with chicken soup and orange juice, we became inseparable. In between cramming for finals and finishing up m y first year of concentration on children, we spent long hours driving aroun d in his 1970 burnt-orange Opel station wagon―truly one of the ugliest car s ever manufactured―or hanging out at the beach house on Long Island So und near Milford, Connecticut, where he lived with his roommates, Doug E akeley, Don Pogue and Bill Coleman. At a party there one night, Bill and I ended up in the kitchen talking about what each of us wanted to do after gra duation. I still didn’t know where I would live and what I would do because my interests in child advocacy and civil rights d idn’t dictate a particular pat h. Bill was absolutely certain: He would go home to Arkansas and run for p ublic office. A lot of my classmates said they intended to pursue public serv ice, but Bill was the only one who you knew for certain would actually do it .11]I told Bill about my summer plans to clerk at Treuhaft, Walker and Burnstein, a small law firm in Oakland, California, and he announced thathe would like to go to California with me. I was astonished. I knew he had signed on to work in Senator Georg e McGovern’s presidential campaign and that the campaign manager, Gary Hart, had asked Bill to organize the South for McGovern. The prospect of driving from one Southern state to another convincing Democrats both to support McGovern and to oppose Nixon’s p olicy in Vietnam excited him.[12]Although Bill had worked in Arkansas on campaigns for Senator J. William Fulbright and others, and in Connecticut for Joe Duffey and Joe Lieberman, he’d never had the chance to be in on the ground floor of a presidential campaign.[13]I tried to let the news sink in. I was thrilled.[14]“Why,” I asked, “do you want to give up the opportunity to do something you love to follow me to California?”[15]“For someone I love, that’s why,” he said.[16]He had decided, he told me, that we were destined for each other, and he didn’t want to let me go just after he’d found me.[17]Bill and I shared a small apartment near a big park not far from the University of California at Berkeley campus where the Free Speech Movement started in 1964. I spent most of my time working for Mal Burnstein researching, writing legal motions and briefs for a child custody case. Meanwhile, Bill explored Berkeley, Oakland and San Francisco. On weekends, he took me to the places he had scouted, like a restaurant inNorth Beach or a vintage clothing storeon Telegraph Avenue. I tried teaching him tennis, and we both experimented with cooking. I baked him a peach pie, something I associated with Arkansas, although I had yet to visit the state, and together we produced a palatable chicken curry for any and all occasions we hosted. Bill spent most of his time reading and then sharing with me his thoughts about books like To the Finland Station by Edmund Wilson. During our long walks, he often broke into song, frequently crooning one of his Elvis Presley favorites. [18]People have said that I knew Bill would be President one day and went around telling anyone who would listen. I don’t remember thinking that until years later, but I had one strange encounter at a small restaurant in Berkeley. I was supposed to meet Bill, but I was held up at work and arrived late. There was no sign of him, and I asked the waiter if he had seen a man of his description. A customer sitting nearby spoke up, saying, “He was here for a long time reading, and I started talking to him about books. I don’t know his name, but he’s going to be President someday.” “Yeah, right,” I said, “but do you know where he went?” [19]At the end of the summer, we returned to New Haven and rented the ground floor of 21 Edgewood Avenue for seventy-five dollars a month. That bought us a living room with a fireplace, one small bed room, a third room that served as both study and dining area, a tiny bathroom and a primitive kitchen. The floors were so uneven that plates would slide off thedining table if we didn’t keep little wooden blocks under the table legs to level them. The wind howled through cracks in the walls that we stuffed with newspapers. But despite it all, I loved our first house. We shopped for furniture at the Goodwill and Salvation Army stores and were quite proud of our student decor.[20]Our apartment was a block away from the Elm Street Diner, which we frequented because it was open all night. The local Y down the street had a yoga class that I joined, and Bill agreed to take with me―as long as I didn’t tell anybody else. He also came along to the Cathedral of Sweat, Y ale’s gothic sports center, to run mindlessly around the mezzanine track. Once he started running, he kept going. I didn’t. [21]We ate often at Basel’s, a favorite Greek restaurant, and loved going to the movies at the Lincoln, a small theater set back on a residential street. One evening after a blizzard finally stopped, we decided to go to the movies. The roads were not yet cleared, so we walked there and back through the foot-high snowdrifts, feeling very much alive and in love.[22]We both had to work to pay our way through law school, on top of the student loans we had taken out. But we still found time for politics. Bill decided to open a McGovern for President headquarters in New Haven, using his own money to rent a storefront. Most of the volunteers were Yale students and faculty because the boss of the local Democratic Party, Arthur Barbieri, was not supporting McGovern. Bill arranged for us to meet Mr.Barbieri at an Italian restaurant. At a long lunch, Bill claimed he had eight hundred volunteers ready to hit the streets to out-organize the regular party apparatus. Barbieri eventually decided to endorse McGovern. He invited us to attend the party meeting at a local Italian club, Melebus Club, where he would announce his endorsement.[23]The next week, we drove to a nondescript building and entered a door leading to a set of stairs that went down to a series of underground rooms. When Barbieri stood up to speak in the big dining room, he commanded the attention of the local county committee members―mostly men―who were there. He started by talking about the war in Vietnam and naming the boys from the New Haven area who were serving in the military and those who had died. Then he said, “Thiswar isn’t worth losing one more boy for. That’s why we should support George McGovern, who wants to bring our boys home.” This was not an immediately popular position, but as the night wore on, he pressed his case until he got a unanimous vote of support. And he delivered on his commitment, first at the state convention and then in the election when New Haven was one of the few places in America that voted for McGovern over Nixon. [24] After Christmas, Bill drove up from Hot Springs to Park Ridge to spend a few days with my family. Both my parents had met him the previous summer, but I was nervous because my dad was so uninhibited in his criticism of my boyfriends. I wondered what he would say to aSouthern Democrat with Elvis sideburns. My mother had told me that in my father’s eyes, no man would be good enough for me. She appreciated Bill’s good manners and willingness to help with the dishes. But Bill really won her over when he found her reading a philosophy book from one of her college courses and spent the next hour or so discussing it with her. It was slow going at first with my father, but he warmed up over games of cards, and in front of the television watching football bowl games. My brothers basked in Bill’s attention. My friends liked him too. After I introduced him to Betsy Johnson, her mother, Roslyn, cornered me on the way out of their house and said, “I don’t care what you do, but don’t let this one go. He’s the only one I’ve ever seen make you laugh!”。

第十一课 A真正的高度戴维纳斯特(1)困难越大,战胜困难就越令人感到自豪。

——莫里哀(2)当天空黑暗到一定程度的时候你就会看到那满天闪烁的星星。

——查尔斯A 比亚德(3)此刻,他的手掌正在冒汗。

他需要一块毛巾来擦干手掌和他紧握着的撑竿。

一杯冰水解除了他的干渴,但是却不能使他那紧张的心冷静下来。

他感到那块坐在身下的阿斯特罗草皮和他今天将面临的全国青少年奥林匹克运动会上的竞争一样炽热。

横竿被设置在 17 英尺的位置,这比他个人的最好成绩要高出 3 英寸。

迈克尔斯通正面临着他撑杆跳高生涯中最富有挑战性的一天。

(4)虽然竞赛决赛已经结束一个多小时了,看台上的观众还有两万多人。

撑杆跳是田径比赛中真正具有魅力的项目。

它将体操的优美和身体的力量结合起来。

它还具有飞翔的因素,而且观众一想到运动员能飞到两层楼那么高真不可思意。

此时此刻不仅是迈克尔斯通的现实和梦想,还是他的探索。

(5)在迈克尔的记忆里,他一直梦想着能够飞翔。

在他的成长过程中,妈妈读了许多关于飞翔的故事给他听。

她的故事为他描述的总是飞翔时俯瞰大地的情景。

每当她读到细节的时候,她就充满了兴奋和激情,这使得迈克尔的梦想也充满了迷人的色彩和美丽。

迈克尔不停地重温着这样一个梦想 : 他沿着乡村小道飞奔,他能感觉到脚下的岩石和大块的泥土。

当沿着镶着金边的麦浪奔跑的时候,他总会超过从身边经过的火车。

就在那一刻,他会深深地吸一口气,然后猛地腾空而起,像一只雄鹰一样高高地“飞翔”。

(6)无论“飞”向何处,他都会飞到妈妈为他讲述的那些故事里 ; 无论“飞”向何方,妈妈的关爱之情都会追随到那里。

但是,另一方面,他的爸爸却不是一个爱做梦的人。

泊特斯通是一位现实主义的铁杆分子。

他坚信做事要付出艰辛的努力和汗水。

他的座右铭是:“如果你想得到什么,那么就努力去干吧!”(7)从 14 岁起,迈克尔就是这么做的。

他首先是从一项谨慎而系统的举重训练开始的。

他每隔一天练举重,每隔另一天练跑步。

Lesson 11. Yesterday’s terrorism darkened, marked and forever altered the way Americans live their lives.昨日发生的恐怖主义活动使美国人的生活暗淡无光,在他们的生活中留下了印迹,并永远地改变了他们的生活。

2. “We are going to have to learn what a lot of other countries have gone through: to manage fear at a cultural and national level,” said Charles Figley, a professor of trauma psychology at Florida State University. “We’re getting a lesson in the way fear works.”佛罗里达州立大学创伤心理学教授查尔斯?费格里说:“我们得学一学其它许多国家曾经经历过的东西,那就是从文化上和在全国范围内来应对恐惧。

”他还说:“我们正在体验恐惧是怎样起作用的。

”3. In a country long proud and even boastful of its openness—a country where an ordinary citizen can stroll through the U.S. Capitol unescorted—the terrorist attacks are likely to force Americans to a lot of that. Metal detectors now mark the front door of many government buildings, and security guards are a fixture in the lobby of most large office buildings.美国是一个一向以开放自豪甚至洋洋得意的国家,在这里,人们可以独自在美国国会大楼中闲庭信步,而现在,恐怖袭击很有可能迫使美国人处处小心,惶惶不可终日。

其实我们很大程度上已经是这样了。

许多政府大楼的前门装设的金属探测器已然成为一道风景线,大部分的办公大楼里也必备保安。

4. But retaliation carries the risk of setting off a tightening spiral of violence and counterviolence not unlike the Middle East or Northern Ireland. Unlike countries that have had to learn to live with violence,”We are new at this,” said Florida’s Dr. Figley, who heads a project that has trained trauma teams in Yugoslavia.”My fear is we will overreach and make things worse rather than better by retribution, revenge, racism and marginalizing ethnic groups.”报复有很大的危险,会引发和在中东及北爱尔兰一样的紧张的暴力和反暴力的恶性攀升。

与那些不得不在暴力中学习如何生存的国家不同,“我们是新手,”曾在南斯拉夫训练过创伤急救队的项目负责人费格里博士说,“我所担心的是惩罚、报复、种族主义和排斥少数民族的举动会过于偏激,适得其反。

”5. Fear of terrorism is likely to lead Americans to tolerate more government surveillance—such as overhead video cameras at sporting events—than they have to date. “It’s very likely in the wake of today’s events that we’re going to see a greater acceptance on the public’s part—and on the court’s part—to approve certain kinds of police tactics,” said William Stuntz, a Harvard Low School professor.对于恐怖主义的恐惧会使美国人接受比现在更多的来自政府的监控,例如在运动竞赛场上高架的摄象机。

哈佛大学法学院教授威廉姆斯?斯汤资说,“经过目前前这些事件,我们将发现,无论是公众,还是法庭,都会在更大程度上接受某些警察的策略。

”Lesson 5戴维先到一步,事后他气愤地向我发难说当他告诉领班准备和谁一起吃饭时,领班的语气骤然逆转。

一瞬间就从“这是个什么人?”变成“这边有请,先生。

”当我们赶到时,拍照的人已经在饭店外忙个不停了。

戴维开始嘲笑我是伦敦这家高级饭店里的知名人物。

这时,我俩向屋内望去并同时看到了我们的偶像。

我的生活中——与维多利亚一起的生活中——一件美好的事情就是有时那些让我在见面之前紧张不安,在见面时张口结舌的人,最终却成为我的朋友。

3.They’re incredibly generous: almost the first thing Elton did the afternoon I met him in Italy was to offer Victoria and me their place in the South of France as somewhere to go if we ever needed to get away from it all.他们非常慷慨:我在意大利见到埃尔顿的那个下午,几乎他所做的第一件事就是把他们在法国南部的住处提供给维多利亚和我以便我们一旦需要远离烦乱的生活时有个落脚的地方。

在剩下的时间里如果能听到他对我的辫子和其他事情的看法我会非常高兴。

我们都知道他的故事,但是看着他的眼睛,捕捉着他的笑容,追寻着这张异常英俊的脸上遍布的皱纹,你会情不自禁想要听他亲自讲述。

我们在天亮前就早早起床,因此从大巴下来跌跌撞撞走回酒店时,睡眠的不足开始让我犯困。

下午就在梦乡中度过了。

Lesson 61.John Forbes Nash, Jr.-mathematical genius, inventor of a theory of rational behavior, visionary of the thinking machine-had been sitting with his visitor, also a mathematician, for nearly half an hour.小约翰•福布斯•纳什数学天才、|理性行为理论的缔造者、预见思想机器出现的预言家——已经和来访者,也是一位数学家,共坐了将近半个小时。

2. He had been staring dully at a spot immediately in front of the left foot of Harvard professor George Mackey,hardly moving except to brush his long dark hair away from his forehead in a fitful, repetitive motion.他一直目光呆滞地盯着哈佛教授乔治麦克恩左脚前方不远的地方,除了一次次重复着将垂在前额的略长的黑发拨开的动作,他几乎一动不动。

3. Over the next decade, a decade as notable for its supreme faith in human rationality as for its dark anxieties about mankind’s survival, Nash proved himself, in the words of the eminent geometer Mikhail Gromov, “the most remarkable mathematician of the second half of the century”.在未来十年,在那既以对人类理性抱有无尚信念而著称,又以对人类生存怀有无尽忧虑而闻名的十年,纳什,用知名几何学家米克哈尔格罗莫夫的话说,证明了自己是20世纪后半叶最杰出的数学家。

4. Geniuses, the mathematician Paul Halmos wrote, “are of two kinds: the ones who are just like all of us, but very much more so, and the ones who, apparently, have an extra human spark. We can all run, and some of us can run the mile in less than 4 minutes; but there is nothing that most of us can do that compares with the creation of the Great G-minor Fugue”. Nash’s genius was of that mysterious variety more often associated with music and are than with the oldest of all sciences.数学家保罗•哈莫斯写道,天才“分为两种:一种就像我们大家一样,只是更为出色;另一种则是那些明显具备超凡人类灵感的人。

我们都能跑步,有些人还能在四分钟内跑完一英里;但是我们所做的一切无论如何也无法与创作出G小调赋格曲相提并论。

”纳什的天分就属于那种常与音乐和艺术而非与最古老的科学紧密相连的神奇异禀。

5. Compulsively rational, he wished to turn life’s decisions---whether to take the first elevator or wait for the next one, where to bank his money, what job to accept, whether to marry---into calculations of advantage and disadvantage, algorithms or mathematical rules divorced from emotion, convention, and tradition.他具有一种难以抑制的理性,希望将生活中的决定——是搭乘第一部电梯还是等待下一部,到哪里存钱接受什么样的工作是否结婚***都转化为利弊得失的计算,转化为完全脱离感情、习俗和传统的算法法则或数学规则。
