Unit 3你能证明地球是圆的吗?来试试看吧!你将依靠你自己的智力还是不得不引用专家的观点呢?我们为什么相信地球是圆的?乔治·奥韦尔记得在什么地方——我想是在《圣女贞德》序言中——肖伯纳评论说,今天我们比在中世纪时更加轻信,更加迷信。

而作为现代轻信的例证,他举出地圆说这一广为传播的信念。

肖伯纳说,普通人举不出一条理由来说明为什么相信地球是圆的。

他全盘接受这一理论,只是因为这一理论中有一种迎合20世纪心态的东西。

当然,肖伯纳是夸大其词了,但他说的也确实有些道理,这一问题值得进一步探讨,因为它会帮助人们看清现代知识的真实情况。

我们究竟为什么会相信地球是圆的呢?我说的不是数千位天文学家、地理学家之类的人,他们可以用观察到的事实或用理论上的根据来证实这一点,我指的是如同你我之辈的报纸的普通读者。

至于“地平说”,我相信我能够加以驳斥。

如果你在天气晴朗的日子站立海边,你可以看到船桅和烟囱沿着地平线移动而不见船体本身。

只有假设地球表面呈曲线状,这一现象才能得到解释。

但不能由此推断地球是球形的。

设想另一个称做“地球卵形说”的理论吧,这一学说声称地球形如蛋状。

对此,我能说什么加以反驳呢?面对“地球卵形说”者,我能打的第一张牌是,可以根据太阳和月亮来类推。

“地球卵形说”者立即回敬道,我无法根据自己的观察得知那些天体是球形的。

我只能得知他们是圆的,而它们完全可能呈扁平的圆盘状。

我对此无言以答。

此外,他还会说,我凭什么理由认为地球一定与太阳和月亮的形状相同?对此,我同样无法解答。

我的第二张牌是地球的影子: 月食期间,地球投在月亮上的影子看上去呈圆形物体状。

但“地球卵形说”者马上要问,我怎么知道月食是由地球的影子造成的呢?回答是,我并不知道,我只是照搬报刊文章和科普小册子上的说法而已。

小小交锋受挫,于是我打出一张王牌“Q”: 专家的看法。

英国格林威治皇家天文台台长总该是权威了,他告诉我说地球是圆的。

“地球卵形说”者用他的“K”牌压倒我的“Q”牌。

Many people believe that there is equality of opportunity that allows anyone to become successful. This belief is illustrated by storied written by a nineteenth-century American novelist, Horatio Alger, who wrote about the “American Dream”. In his stories he described poor people who became rich because of their hard work, honesty, and luck. The stories reinforced the idea that all individuals, no matter how poor, were capable of becoming wealthy as long as they were honest and hard-working. For many Americans, however, Horatio Alger‟s …rags-to-riches‟stories do not represent the reality of opportunity. Many poor immigrants who came to the United States in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries were able to become rich. Today, however, the poor generally do not rise to the middle and upper classes. That is why the “American Dream” is now described as a myth.Part ⅡA young man, though eager to find a job, turned down a teaching job at a boys‟ school. During the interview he found the headmaster very unpleasant to talk with. In fact, he and the headmaster had very little in common. They disagreed sharply in their views on education, particularly on the importance of games in the aducation of young boys. Also, the young man found that he was expected to teach almost all subjects, including the two he hated---algebra and geometry. Worse still, he would be required to play cricket with his class on Saturday afternoon when his friends would all be enjoying themselves. He was still considering accepting the job even at the pitiful wage of twelve pounds a week, when he was told that he would be working under the headmater‟s wife. In the eyes of the young man, nothing could be more insulting than having to take orders from a woman boss. He had to refuse the job.Unit 4II Comprehension of the text1. 1) b 2) c 3) a 4) d 5) c 6) a 7) b 8) dIII Vocabulary Activities1. 1) few 2) A little 3) little 4) few 5) a few, little 6) a few, few 7) little 8) few2. 1) function 2) corresponded with each other 3) immune to 4) at ease 5) displayed 6) approach 7) puzzle 8) a household word 9) capable of carrying out 10) so much so that3. 1) a series of 2) approaches 3) are pursuing 4) ambition 5) fame 6) come to terms with 7) workout 8) singled out 9) personality 10) taken apart 11) at ease 12) observe 13) modest 14) application 15) curiosity 16) solutions4.1)He writes exclusively for the Washington Post.2)The friendship your people have for our people impressed me deeply during my visit in your country.

大学英语精读第四册课文翻译Unit 1两个大学男孩不清楚赚钱需要付出艰苦的劳动被一份许诺轻松赚大钱的广告吸引了。

男孩们很快就明白如果事情看起来好得不像真的那多半确实不是真的。

轻轻松松赚大钱约翰•G•哈贝尔“你们该看看这个 ”我向我们的两个读大学的儿子建议道。

“你们若想避免因为老是向人讨钱而有失尊严的话这兴许是一种办法。

”我将挂在我们门把手上的、装在一个塑料袋里的几本杂志拿给他们。

塑料袋上印着一条信息说需要招聘人投递这样的袋子这活儿既轻松又赚钱。

“轻轻松松赚大钱!” “我不在乎失不失尊严 ”大儿子回答说。

“我可以忍受 ”他的弟弟附和道。

“看到你们俩伸手讨钱讨惯了一点也不感到尴尬的样子真使我痛心 ”我说。

孩子们说他们可以考虑考虑投递杂志的事。

我听了很高兴便离城出差去了。

午夜时分我已远离家门在一家旅馆的房间里舒舒服服住了下来。

电话铃响了是妻子打来的。

她想知道我这一天过得可好。

“好极了!”我兴高采烈地说。

“你过得怎么样?”我问道。

“棒极了!”她大声挖苦道。

“真棒!而且这还仅仅是个开始。

又一辆卡车刚在门前停下。

”“又一辆卡车?”“今晚第三辆了。

第一辆运来了四千份蒙哥马利-沃德百货公司的广告第二辆运来四千份西尔斯-罗伯克百货公司的广告。

我不知道这一辆装的啥但我肯定又是四千份什么的。

既然这事是你促成的我想你或许想了解事情的进展。

”我之所以受到指责事情原来是这样由于发生了一起报业工人罢工通常夹在星期日报纸里的广告插页必须派人直接投送出去。

公司答应给我们的孩子六百美金任务是将这些广告插页在星期天早晨之前投递到四千户人家去。

“不费吹灰之力!”我们上大学的大儿子嚷道。

“六百块!”他的弟弟应声道 “我们两个钟点就能干完!”“西尔斯和沃德的广告通常都是报纸那么大的四页 ”妻子告诉我说 “现在我们门廊上堆着三万二千页广告。

就在我们说话的当儿两个大个子正各抱着一大捆广告走过来。

这么多广告我们可怎么办?”“你让孩子们快干 ”我指示说。

大学英语精读文本第4册Unit 3

Unit 3TextCan you prove that the earth is round? Go ahead and try! Will you rely on your senses or will you have to draw on the opinions of experts?WHY DO WE BELIEVETHAT THE EARTH IS ROUND?George OrwellSomewhere or other — I think it is in the preface to saint Joan — Bernard Shaw remarks that we are more gullible and superstitious today than we were in the Middle Ages, and as an example of modern credulity he cites the widespread belief that the earth is round. The average man, says Shaw, can advance not a single reason for thinking that the earth is round. He merely swallows this theory because there is something about it that appeals to the twentieth-century mentality.Now, Shaw is exaggerating, but there is something in what he says, and the question is worth following up, for the sake of the light it throws on modern knowledge. Just why do we believe that the earth is round? I am not speaking of the few thousand astronomers, geographers and so forth who could give ocular proof, or have a theoretical knowledge of the proof, but of the ordinary newspaper-reading citizen, such as you or me.As for the Flat Earth theory, I believe I could refute it. If you stand by the seashore on a clear day, you can see the masts and funnels of invisible ships passing along the horizon. This phenomenon can only be explained by assuming that the earth's surface is curved. But it does not follow that the earth is spherical. Imagine another theory called the Oval Earth theory, which claims that the earth is shaped like an egg. What can I say against it?Against the Oval Earth man, the first card I can play is the analogy of the sun and moon. The Oval Earth man promptly answers that I don't know, by my own observation, that those bodies are spherical. I only know that they are round, and they may perfectly well be flat discs. I have no answer to that one. Besides, he goes on, what reason have I for thinking that the earth must be the same shape as the sun and moon? I can't answer that one either.My second card is the earth's shadow: When cast on the moon during eclipses, it appears to be the shadow of a round object. But how do I know, demands the Oval Earth man, that eclipses of the moon are caused by the shadow of the earth? The answer is that I don't know, but have taken this piece of information blindly from newspaper articles and science booklets.Defeated in the minor exchanges, I now play my queen of trumps: the opinion of the experts. The Astronomer Royal, who ought to know, tells me that the earth is round. The Oval Earth man covers the queen with his king. Have I tested the Astronomer Royal's statement, and would I even know a way of testing it? Here I bring out my ace. Yes, I do know one test. The astronomers can foretell eclipses, and this suggests that their opinions about the solar system are pretty sound. I am, to my delight, justified in accepting their say-so about the shape of the earth.If the Oval Earth man answers — what I believe is true — that the ancient Egyptians, who thought the sun goes round the earth, could also predict eclipses, then bang goes my ace. I have only one card left: navigation. People can sail ship round the world, and reach the places they aim at, by calculations which assume that the earth is spherical. I believe that finishes the Oval Earth man, though even then he may possibly have some kind of counter.It will be seen that my reasons for thinking that the earth is round are rather precarious ones. Yet this is an exceptionally elementary piece of information. On most other questions I should have to fall back on the expert much earlier, and would be less able to test his pronouncements. And much the greater part of our knowledge is at this level. It does not rest on reasoning or on experiment, but on authority. And how can it be otherwise, when the range of knowledge is so vast that the expert himself is an ignoramus as soon as he strays away from his own specialty? Most people, if asked to prove that the earth is round, would not even bother to produce the rather weak arguments I have outlined above. They would start off by saying that "everyone knows" the earth to be round, and if pressed further, would become angry. In a way Shaw is right. This is a credulous age, and the burden of knowledge which we now have to carry is partly responsible.New Wordsprefacen. an introduction to a book or speech 前言,序gulliblea. easily deceived or cheated esp. into a false belief; credulous 易受骗的;轻信的superstitiousa. full of superstition; believing in superstitions 迷信的credulityn. a tendency to believe to readily 轻信citevt. mention as an example; quote (a passage, book, etc.) 举出;引出widespreada. found or distributed over a large area 分布广的;普遍的advancevt. put or bring forward; offer 提出appealvi. please, attract or interest 投合所好;有感染力;有吸引力mentalityn. way of thinking, outlook; mental power or capacity 心理,思想;脑力exaggeratevt. think, speak or write of as greater than is really so; overstate 夸张;夸大saken. end, purpose 缘故geographern. a specialist in geographyoculara. of, for, by the eyes; based on what has been seen 眼睛的;凭视觉的theoreticala. of or based on theorycitizenn. 公民;市民refutevt. prove (a statement) to be untrue; prove (a person) to be mistaken 驳斥mastn. a long upright pole of wood or metal for carrying flags or sails on a ship 桅杆funneln. a metal chimney for letting out smoke from a steam engine or steamship (蒸汽机,轮船等的)烟囱invisiblea. that can not be seenhorizonn. the line where the sky seems to meet the earth or sea 地平线phenomenon (pl. phenomena)n. 现象curvevt. bend so as to form a line that has no straight part 使成曲线n. a continuously bending line without angles 曲线followvi. result or occur as a consequence, effect, or inference 结果产生;得出sphericala. shaped like a ball 球形的ovaln.& a.
