section2--1-4科技英语阅读与翻译教程文件s e c t i o n2--1-4科技英语阅读与翻译1 Monograph专著1. The general definition of a monographScientific treatises of book length but otherwise variable format prepared by acknowledged experts onspecialized topics for the benefit of others who have specialized in. or who wish to obtain a specialist'sappreciation of, these topics.2. The value of monographs for scientific researchesThe value of monographs lies in the coherence and comprehensiveness of the information and knowledge they contain, which is important to the specialized researchers to whom they are directed and, therefore, to theadvancement of science and engineering generally.3. The qualities of the authors of monographsThe authors of monographs should have exceptional breadth and depth of knowledge, and must be able tocollect, collate, analyze, integrate, and synthesize all relevant contributions to the archival literature of thescientific and engineering journals and to add original material as required.4. The differences between monographs and books of conference proceedings Monographs generally are written by specialists for the benefit of other specialists. Textbooks are pedagogicalworks which, even if written on fairly narrow subjects, aredesigned to serve broader and more juniorreaderships than specialized research communities.5. The differences between monographs and books of conference proceedings Conference papers commonly take the form of premature announcements of new scientific discoveries.Conference proceedings generally have a short shelf life.6. The main components of a monographThe author, title and subtitle, date of publication, dust cover or blurb, content pages, bibliography and index,illustrations, preface and introduction.7. An indication of the book’s su ccessThe number of editions is an indication of the book’s success.8. The function of the blurbIt gives the reader a rapid overview of the contents and approach. It might also say what the book contains and for whom it is written.2 Academic Journal学术期刊1. The general definition of an academic journalAn academic journal is a peer-reviewed periodical in which scholarship relating to a particular academicdiscipline is published.2. The significance of peer-review processThe peer-review process is considered critical to establishinga reliable body of research and knowledge.3. The definition of review articlesReview articles, also called “reviews of progress”, are checks on the research published in journals.4. One difference between original research articles and review articlesUnlike original research articles, review articles tend to be solicited submissions, sometimes planned years inadvance.5. The places where science journals are authoritatively rankedNatural science journals are categorized and ranked in the Science Citation Index, and social science journalsin the Social Science Citation Index.6. The possible quantitative factors to reflect an academic journal’s prestigeThe number of later articles citing articles already published in the journal, the overall number of citations,how quickly articles are cited, and the average “half-life” of articles.7. The financial resources of humanities and social science academic journals Subsidies by universities or professional organizations and advertising fees by advertisers.8. The role of internet in the production of, and access to, academic journalsThe Internet has revolutionized the production of, and access to, academic journals, with their contentsavailable online via services subscribed to by academic libraries or even in a way of open access.33 Organization of a Scientific Paper科技论文的篇章结构1. In most scientific journals, scientific papers include the following sections Summary or Abstract, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgments.2. The content of Summary or AbstractIt gives a brief background to the topic, describes conciselythe major findings of the paper, and relates thesefindings to the field of study.3. The Introduction section deals with the following two pointsIt describes first the accepted state of knowledge in a specialized field; then it focuses more specifically on a particular aspect, usually describing a finding or set of findings that led directly to the work described in the paper.4. The purpose of Materials and MethodsIts purpose is to describe the materials used in the experiments and the methods by which the experiments were carried out.5. The two ways of organizing ResultsIn some papers, the results are presented without extensive discussion, which is reserved for the followingsection. In other papers, results are given, and then they are interpreted, perhaps taken together with otherfindings not in the paper, so as to give the logical basis for later experiments.6. The purposes of the Discussion sectionThe data in the paper are interpreted; the findings of the paper are related to other findings in the field; thisserves to show how the findings contribute to knowledge, or correct the errors of previous work; some of thelogical arguments are often provided when it is necessary to clarify why later experiments were earned out.7. The reason for combining the Results and DiscussionBecause the data need extensive discussion to allow the reader to follow the train of logic developed in thecourse of the research.8. The difference between the abstracts in Science and those in NatureIn Science, the abstract is self-contained; in Nature, the abstract also serves as a brief introduction to the paper.4 Reading a Scientific Paper科技论文的阅读方法1. The order to understand the major points of the work, you should first read The Abstract.2. Reading the Title and the Abstract serves three purposesFirst, it clarifies whether you in fact know enough background to appreciate the paper. Second, it refreshes your memory about the topic. Third, it helps you integrate the new information into your previous knowledgeabout the topic.3. When reading in a familiar field, you can skim or even skipThe Introduction.4. The three typical codewordsData not shown, unpublished data, preliminary data.5. The poorly written papers are often related to three types of writersThose who are poor writers; those who do not enjoy writing, and do not take the time or effort to ensure thatthe prose is dear and logical; those who are so familiar with the material that it is difficult to step back and seeit from the point of view of a reader not familiar with the topic.6. The t hree characteristics of “bad writing”First, the logical connections are often left out. Second, papers are often cluttered with a great deal of jargon.Third, the authors often do not provide a clear roadmapthrough the paper.7. In better writing, the side issues are dealt with in the following waysThey are relegated to Figure legends or Materials and Methods or clearly identified as side issues, so as not to distract the reader.8. Another problem faced by the readers is that when they seek to understand just the experiment was,they may findThe authors refer back to previous papers; these refer in turn to previous papers m a long chain.。

Unit1 Text A 石油1油,和煤一样,存在于沉积岩中,而且可能由死去很长时间的生物有机体形成。

含有石油的岩石几乎都来源于海洋,所以形成石油的有机物一定是海洋生物,而不是树木。

2 石油,并不是来自于逐渐积聚的木质物质,而可能是来自于逐渐积聚的海洋生物的脂肪物质。

比如浮游生物:大量浮游在海水表层的单细胞生物。

3 有机物的脂肪物质主要由碳氢原子组成,因此并不需要太多的化学变化就可以形成石油。

生物有机体只需在缺氧的条件下沉积到海湾浅水处的淤泥里。

其脂肪不是分解腐烂,而是逐渐积聚,并在深层的淤泥里圈闭起来,进而经过细微的原子重组,最终形成石油。

4 油比水轻,呈液态,会经由上方覆盖的孔隙性岩石向上渗透,在地球上有些地区到达表层,古人将这些表层石油称为沥青、柏油或异庚烷。

在古代和中世纪,这些石油油苗常被看作药品而不是燃料。

5 当然,表层的油苗数量很少。

而石油油藏上方有时覆盖的是非孔隙性岩石。

石油向上渗透抵达该岩石,然后在岩石下方逐渐积聚形成油层。

若在上方的岩石上钻个孔,石油就可以通过该孔向上迁移。

有时压力过大,石油会向高空喷出。

1859年在宾夕法尼亚州,由埃德温·德雷克成功打出第一口井。

6 如果可以发现一个合适的地点(勘探人员已经识别出地下可能圈闭有石油的地层结构),那么就很容易抽取这一液体燃料,这要比派人到地下把大块的固体煤炭砍成小块要容易得多。

而且一旦获得石油,可以通过地上管道运输,而不必像煤一样,由运货车经过繁重的装卸任务来运输。

7 石油便于抽取,易于运输,促进了石油的应用。

石油可以蒸馏成不同的馏分,每种馏分均由特定大小的分子组成,分子越小,该馏分就越容易蒸发。

8 到19世纪下半叶,最重要的石油馏分是由中等大小的分子构成的煤油,它不易蒸发,被用于照明。

9 然而,到19世纪末人们研制出了内燃机。

内燃机是通过在汽缸里将空气与可燃气体混合,产生爆炸来提供动力的。

最便利的可燃气体是汽油——石油的又一馏分,由小分子构成,容易蒸发。

1-2 美国政府计划推出一个重大机构间主动培育,纳米技术称为爆炸性增长的科学兴趣的行为的材料在纳米尺度。

国家科学基金会(基金会),它支持大多数大学的研究,在纳米科学和有可能导致倡议,报告说,它可以基金只有13%的拨款申请,它接收到的领域,而40%的成功率在许多学科在办事处。

3 资金竞争领域中是“绝对凶残,”斯坦说,威廉姆斯,头的基础研究在惠普和积极支持的倡议。

威廉姆斯喜欢的纳米技术纳米技术因为后者已成为柏油的幻想的索赔代表它。

4 “问题是,纳米技术已经过头了,”他说,“我们没有恐惧与厌恶,有些人认为,联想长期愿景的一个厂安置在一个火柴盒。

5 相反,越来越多的认识材料在纳米尺度,在尺寸可比的长度个别分子,可能是把大型产品和过程。

”这是不需要的小东西,它可能是在汽车,”解释克罗可的国家科学基金会的工程,谁主持一个机构间工作组,正在规划的倡议。

”利用纳米技术是非常广泛的,但所有领域,它使用相同的工具和方法。

”6 也许最壮观的应用迄今使用巨磁电阻在1988发现。

在读取头的计算机磁盘驱动器。

相关现象的隧道磁阻不久将允许生产的快速和紧凑的随机存取存储器计算机。

7 但是,正如威廉姆斯指出的,迫在眉睫的纳米技术的应用远远超出了计算机行业。

柯达,他说,发展纳米颗粒称为“染色精”-一个跨之间的粉末颜料和染料分子在印刷图像使用。

轮胎制造商计划和纳米粘土与橡胶轮胎,收尾的聚合物分子和大大延长轮胎的使用寿命。

而五分之四的可能的药物疗法,不可测试的患者因为它们是不溶于水,能产生纳米粒子在水中悬浮,并可能因此成为可行的治疗候选人。

8 所有这种潜力是吸引注意在华盛顿,在支持研究倡议越来越多。

在年度预算准则分发给机构可能,杰克卢主任,管理和预算办公室在白宫,尼尔巷,主任办公室的科学和技术政策,确定纳米技术作为一种成熟的特殊机构间关注。

上月,听证会在众议院和参议院概述了潜在的领域。

9 这一切指向重大加入纳米技术倡议的预算提案的2001财年,,克林顿总统向国会明年二月。

Unit 1 Genetically modified foods -- Feed the World?If you want to spark a heated debate at a dinner party, bring up the topic of genetically modified foods. For many people, the concept of genetically altered, high-tech crop production raises all kinds of environmental, health, safety and ethical questions. Particularly in countries with long agrarian traditions -- and vocal green lobbies -- the idea seems against nature.如果你想在某次晚宴上挑起一场激烈的争论,那就提出转基因食品的话题吧。

对许多人来说,高科技的转基因作物生产的概念会带来诸如环境、健康、安全和伦理等方面的各种问题。

特别是在有悠久的农业生产传统和主张环保的游说集团的国家里,转基因食品的主意似乎有悖自然。

In fact, genetically modified foods are already very much a part of our lives. A third of the corn and more than half the soybeans and cotton grown in the US last year were the product of biotechnology, according to the Department of Agriculture. More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the US this year. The genetic is out of the bottle.事实上,转基因食品已经成为我们生活重要的一部分。

核电与核辐射1986年4月26日,切尔诺贝利核电站的一个反应堆发生爆炸,将相当于400颗广岛原子弹的放射性尘降物散布到整个北半球。

在此之前,科学家对辐射对植物和野生动物的影响几乎一无所知。

这场灾难创造了一个活生生的实验室,尤其是在这个被称为禁区的1100平方英里的区域。

1994年,德州理工大学生物学教授罗纳德·切瑟和罗伯特·贝克是首批获准完全进入该区域的美国科学家之一。

“我们抓了一群田鼠,它们看起来和野草一样健康。

我们对此非常着迷。

”贝克回忆说。

当Baker和Chesser对田鼠的DNA进行测序时,他们没有发现异常的突变率。

他们还注意到狼、猞猁和其他曾经稀有的物种在这片区域游荡,仿佛这里是原子野生动物保护区。

2003年由一组联合国机构建立的切尔诺贝利论坛发表了声明一份关于灾难20周年的报告证实了这一观点,称“环境条件对该地区的生物群落产生了积极影响”,将其转变为“一个独特的生物多样性保护区”。

五年前,贝克和切塞尔在这片区域搜寻田鼠。

Mousseau到切尔诺贝利去数鸟,发现了与之相矛盾的证据。

穆萨乌是南卡罗莱纳大学的生物学教授,他的合作者安德斯·佩普·穆勒现在是巴黎南方大学生态、系统学和进化实验室的研究主任。

他们发现该地区家燕的数量要少得多,而那些存活下来的家燕则遭受着寿命缩短、(雄性)生育能力下降、大脑变小、肿瘤、部分白化病(一种基因突变)以及白内障发病率更高的痛苦。

在过去13年发表的60多篇论文中,Mousseau和Moller指出,暴露在低水平辐射下对该区域的整个生物圈产生了负面影响,从微生物到哺乳动物,从昆虫到鸟类。

包括贝克在内的批评人士对穆萨和穆勒持批评态度。

贝克在2006年与切塞尔合著的《美国科学家》(American Scientist)文章中指出,该区域“实际上已成为一个保护区”,穆萨和穆勒的“令人难以置信的结论只得到了间接证据的支持”。

我们所知道的关于电离辐射对健康影响的几乎所有信息都来自于一项正在进行的对原子弹幸存者的研究,该研究被称为寿命研究,简称LSS。

第一单元什么是罗素悖论?约翰·T·鲍德温,奥利弗·莱斯曼撰胡志国译罗素悖论是建立在这样的实例基础之上的:想象有一群理发师,他们(给所有,而且)只给不给自己刮胡子的人刮胡子。

假设这个集体中有一个理发师,他不给自己刮胡子,那么,按照这个集体的定义,他就必须给自己刮胡子。

但这个集体中的任何理发师都不能给自己刮胡子。

(否则,他就是在给自己刮胡子的人刮胡子了。

)伯特兰·罗素1901年发现的这个悖论是对他的一位数学同行的打击。

十九世纪晚期,戈特洛布·弗雷格试图通过符号逻辑为所有的数学建立一个基础。

他在形式表达式(如x=2)和数学特征(如偶数)之间建立了一种对应关系。

在他的推导中,人们可以随意使用任何特征为后来的特征定义。

罗素在他1903年出版的《数学原理》中公布了自己的悖论,证明了弗雷格系统存在根本缺陷。

在今天看来,这类系统最好通过所谓的集的结构式用集合的概念来描述。

例如,对于由数字4、5、6组成的集体,我们可以描述为:x是一个整数的集体,若用字母n表示这些整数,则n大于3小于7。

对这一集合的描述,在形式上我们写作x={n: n为整数,3<n<7}。

集合的对象不一定是数字。

我们可以设y={x:x为美国男性居民}。

很明显,对x的任何描述都可以填入冒号后的区域。

但罗素(恩斯特·策梅洛也独立地)发现,x={a: a不属于a}会导致矛盾的结论,就像对理发师集体的描述一样。

x自身是否属于x?无论是与否,结论都是矛盾的。

罗素发现这一悖论之后,弗雷格马上认识到他的系统被全盘推翻了。

即便如此,他无法解决这个悖论,而为了绕开这个悖论,人们在二十世纪做了许多尝试。

罗素本人对这一悖论的回答是他的“类型论”。

他分析道,之所以会产生悖论,是因为我们混淆了对数的集合的描述与对数的集合的集合的描述。

于是罗素引入了对象的分级系统:数,数的集合,数的集合的集合,等等。

这个系统曾被作为手段用于对数学基础的第一次形式化,并且在今天的某些哲学研究和计算机分支学科中仍有运用。

科技英语阅读1-9单元译文:Unit 1罗素悖论的提出是基于这样的一个事例:设想有这样一群理发师,他们只给不给自己理发的人理发。

假设其中一个理发师符合上述的条件,不给自己理发;然而按照要求,他必须要给自己理发。

但是在这个集合中没有人会给自己理发。

(如果这样的话,这个理发师必定是给别人理发还要给自己理发)1901年,伯特兰·罗素悖论的发现打击了他其中的一个数学家同事。

在19世纪后期,弗雷格尝试发展一个基本原理以便数学上能使用符号逻辑。

他确立了形式表达式(如:x =2)和数学特性(如偶数)之间的联系。

按照弗雷格理论的发展,我们能自由的用一个特性去定义更多更深远的特性。

1903年,发表在《数学原理》上的罗素悖论从根本上揭示了弗雷格这种集合系统的局限性。

就现在而言,这种类型的集合系统能很好的用俗称集的结构式来描述。

例如,我们可以用 x代表整数,通过n 来表示并且n大于3小于7,来表示4,5,6这样一个集合。

这种集合的书写形势就是:x={n:n是整数,3<n<7}。

集合中的对象并不一定是数字。

我们也可让y={x:x是美国的一个男性居民}。

表面上看,似乎任何一个关于x的描述都有一个符合要求的空间。

但是,罗素(和策梅洛一起)发现x={a:a不再a中}导致一个矛盾,就像对一群理发师的描述一样。

x它本身是在x的集合中吗?否定的答案导致了矛盾的出现。

当罗素发现了悖论,弗雷格立即就发现悖论对他的理论有致命的打击。

尽管这样,他还不能解决这个问题,并且上世纪有很多的尝试,去解决这个问题(但没有成功)。

罗素自己对这个悖论的回答促进了类型理论的形成。

他解释说,悖论的问题在于我们混淆了数集和数集的集合。

所以,罗素介绍了对象的分级系统:数、数集、数集的集合等等。

这个系统为形式化数学的形成奠定了基础,至今它还应用于哲学研究和计算机科学分支。

策梅洛对于罗素悖论的解决方法用新的公理:对于任意公式A(x)和任意集合b,都会有一个集合满足y={x:x既在b中又满足A(x)}取代了以前的公理:对于任意公式A(x),都会有一个集合满足y={x:x满足A(x)}。

科技英语阅读与翻译(李健)第二章设想一下:在一个新的产业诞生之际, 你目=睹见证了这一切! 这个产业是在前所未有的新技术基础上发展起来的, 其中包括一些实力雄厚企业销售的高度专业化商务设备, 还有越来越多的新兴公司生产的新奇玩具、为玩具藏家青睐的机巧装置, 以及其他一些奇特有趣的特殊产品。

但同时, 这还是一个缺乏行业标准和平台的、尚不成规模的产业。

项目复杂, 进步缓慢, 实际应用更是少之有少。

事实上, 尽管对这个产业的未来充满热情和希望,但是没有人能明确地说出什么时间- 或究竟是否有可能-它能取得关键性的规模发展。

但是,若真能实现发展, 那么,它很可能改变整个世界。

当然, 上述描述可算是上世纪70 年代中期计算机产业的写照, 也就在那时, 保罗·艾伦和我成立了微软公司。

当时,部分大企业、政府部门和其他一些机构都在使用笨重、昂贵的主计算机进行后台运算。

知名大学和大型工业实验室的研究人员正试图建造出最基本的构件, 以使信息化时代的到来成为可能。

当时英特尔公司刚刚推出他们的8080 微处理器,雅达利公司正在销售一款流行电子游戏“乒乓”。

而在国产计算机俱乐部里,爱好者急切地努力探索这种新技术带来的好处究竟是什么。

但当时我脑海中所萦绕的则是更具前瞻性的问题:机器人产业即将作为一项新兴的产业而崛起,其当时的发展同30 年前计算机的发展如出一辙。

想想看, 目前汽车组装线上使用的制造型机器人已替代了昔日的主计算机。

这个产业其他的典型产品包括可进行外科手术的机器手, 在伊拉克和阿富汗用于路边及地面排雷的侦察机器人, 以及可以进行地板吸尘的家用机器人。

电子产品公司还推出了可模仿人类、或是狗、恐龙等的机器人玩具, 而玩具收藏者们正迫不及待地想要猎取一套乐高公司生产的最新机器人系列玩具。

与此同时, 世界尖端科技人员正试图解决机器人技术中最棘手的难题, 诸如视觉识别、远程操控、以及学习型机器等问题, 而且他们正在不断获得成功。

Section AI Read the text carefully, and try to sum up (in one sentence if possible) the two or three main points, which the writer is makingGun controlA student of the gun control issue will readily perceive the arena is indeed a broad one, in which we must struggle to preserve the right to keep and bear arms. It is a struggle which will test whatever there might be of genius in any of us and it is one which will merit the devoted efforts of every citizen who in the broadest sense can perceive the relationships which our Bill of Rights liberties bear one to another.I suggest we begin our affirmative role immediately in the area of crime control. The truth is that gun control does not equate with crime control. We have an advantage in this fact which we have neither exploited nor advanced convincingly. It is demonstrable that in those sections of the country where gun possession is most prevalent, crime is least. Encouragingly, many moderate and reasonable men among our opponents are beginning to see that our problem is crime control and that gun control is not going to have much, if any, effect upon it. Of course,for reasons-of their own, some of them still say gun control is desirable. For these people we can only wonder, as would any good citizen, what it is they have in mind for us that our possession of guns makes them so nervous.As long as we concur that any measure of gun control equates with some measure of crime control we are in agreement with those who would eliminate our rights. We would then again be backed into defensive position, held for forty years, always losing a little here and a little there unfit finally nothing would be left us.No group of good citizens has ever struggled more conscientiously along the narrow pathway, between hope and moderation on one hand, and the cold facts of efforts to abolish our rights on the other, than the leaders of the National Rifle Association. Every gun owner in America should applaud the action taken by the Executive Committee of the NRA in Washington, D.C. on July 12, 1974: ‘...the NRA opposes any proposed legislation, at any level of government, which is directed against the inanimate firearm rather than against the criminal misuse of firearms.A reasonable degree of order in society must prevail first. Criminals must be controlled first. we are the decent people. We try to be reasonable and we are not fools even though we have so often made mistakes in the past 40 years.many people turn to England as an example for crime control. The fact isthat in England, for hundreds of years, a man found guilty of any one of number of crimes was promptly hanged. Now that a more humanistic generation of Englishmen has lately abolished these stern but effective methods, crime-including armed crime - is sky-rocketing. Recently armed Englishmen, amid a hail of their own bullets, attempted to kidnap the eldest daughter of the reigning Queen of England! Unbelievable! (From an article in Guns and Ammo by Harlan Carter)Suggested answer.The writer believes that gun-owners are good citizens, and everyone should be free to own guns. If we wish to reduce crime, we should not ban guns, but impose harsher punishments for criminals.II In a paragraph of not more than 100 words, say simply what the witnesses thought happened, and what really happened.A séanceA good example of this technique of investigating the reliability of reports is an experiment reported by S·J Davey. He was interested in the kind of phenomena reported during séances and, using quite simple trickery, which he had planned in advance, he reproduced some of the effects popular among the mediums of the day. His audiences were asked to write down accounts of what they had witnessed, and these observations were then compared with what actually happened. Here is a report written by one witness of such a séance. `On entering the dining-room where the séance was held’, so the report runs, every article of furniture was searched and Mr. Davey turned out his pockets.The door was locked and seated, the gas turned out, and they all sat round the table holding hands, including Mr Davey. A musical box on the table played and floated about. Knockings were heard and bright lights seen. The head of a woman appeared, came close and dematerialized. A half-figure of a man was seena few seconds later .He bowed and then disappeared through the ceiling with a scraping noise..’Another witness also described the searching of the room, the sealing of the door, and the disposition of the medium and sitters round the table. the medium and sitters round the table, She alleged that a female head appeared in a strong light and afterwards a bearded man reading a book, who disappeared through the ceiling.A11 the while Mr. Davey’s hands were held tightly by the sitters on either side, and when the gas was relit the door was still locked and the seal unbroken.A third witness’s account was even more sensational. He reported that ‘nothing was prepared beforehand, the séance was quite casual’. Having described the locking and sealing of the door, he went on to say that he was touched by a cold, clammy hand and heard various raps. After that he saw a bluish-white light which hovered over the heads of the sitters and gradually developed into an apparition that was ‘frightful in itsugliness, but so distinct that everyone could see it .... The features were distinct ... a kind of hood covered the head, and the whole resembled the head of a mummy’. After this an even more wonderful spirit appeared. It began with a streak of light and developed by degrees into a bearded man of Oriental appearance. His eyes were stony and fixed, with a vacant listless expression. At the end of the séance the door was still locked and the seal was intact.So much for some of the reports. Now for the reality. The séance was not a casual affair at all, but had been carefully rehearsed beforehand. At the beginning, Mr Davey went through the motion of apparently locking the door, but he turned the key back again so that the door was actually left unlocked. The ‘props’ for the materializations had been stowed away in a cupboard underneath a bookshelf; this was not looked into by the witnesses who searched the room because, just as they were about to do so, Mr Davey diverted their attention by emptying his pockets to show that he had nothing hidden on his person. The phenomena were produced by a confederate who came in by the unlocked door after the lights had been turned out, and while the musical box was playing loudly to drown the noise of his entry. The ‘apparition offrightful ugliness’ was a mask draped in muslin with a cardboard collar coated with luminous paint. The second spirit was the confederate himself, standing on the back of Mr Davey’s chair, his face faintly illuminated by phosphorescent light fromthe pages of a book he was holding. The rasping noise made when the spirits seemed to disappear through the ceiling was caused accidentally, but interpreted by the witnesses according to their conception of what was happening. When the light was turned on the gummed paper that had been used to seal the door had fallen off, but Mr Davey quickly pressed it back into position and then called the witnesses’ attention to the fact that it was ‘still intact.’ Mr Davey’s performances were so convincing that some leading investigators, including the biologist A. R. Wallace, F. R. S., refused to believe him when he said that he had no mediumistic powers and it had all been done by trickery. In effect the conjurer was challenged to prove that he was not a medium!(From Sense and Nonsense in Psychology by H. J. EysenckSuggested answer.The witnesses thought the room was locked, and that they were alone with Mr Davey. They believed that they saw various supernatural phenomena, such as the spirits of a man and a woman, accompanied by strange lights and noises. In fact, the door was not locked, and the effects were produced by a colleague of Mr Davey who came into the room under cover of darkness and the noise of the musical box. He used materials which had been hidden in a cupboard that was not searched because Mr Davey distracted people’s attention at a crucial moment.Read the following text and make notes.HOW CHILDREN FAILMost children in school fail.For a great many this failure is avowed and absolute. Close to forty per cent of those who begin high school drop out before they finish. For college the figure is one in three.Many others fail in fact if not in name. They complete their schooling only because we have agreed to push them up through the grades and out of the schools, whether they know anything or not. There are many more such children than we think. If we 'raise our standards' much higher, as some would have us do, we will find out very soon just how many there are. Our classrooms will bulge with kids who can't pass the test to get into the next class.But there is a more important sense in which almost all children fail: except for a handful, who may or may not be good students, they fail to develop more than a tiny part of the tremendous capacity for learning, understanding, and creating with which they were born and of which they made full use during the first two or three years of their lives.Why do they fail?They fail because they are afraid, bored, and confused.They are afraid, above all else, of failing, of disappointing or displeasing the many anxious adults around them, whose limitless hopes and expectations for them hang over their heads like a cloud.They are bored because the things they are given and told to do in school are so trivial, so dull, and make such limited and narrow demands on the wide spectrum of their intelligence, capabilities, and talents.They are confused because most of the torrent of words that pours over them in school makes little or no sense. It often flatly contradicts other things they have been told, and hardly ever has any relation to what they really know - to the rough model of reality that they carry around in their minds.How does this mass failure take place? What really goes on in the classroom? What are these children who fail doing? What goes on in their heads? Why don't they make use of more of their capacity?This book is the rough and partial record of a search for answers to these questions. It began as a series of memos written in the evenings to my colleague and friend Bill Hull, whose fifth-grade class I observed and taught in during the day. Later these memos were sent to other interested teachers and parents. A small number of these memos make up this book. They have not been much rewritten, but they have been edited and rearranged under four major topics: Strategy; Fear and Failure; Real Learning; and How Schools Fail. Strategy deals with the ways in whichchildren try to meet, or dodge, the demands that adults make on them in school. Fear and Failure deals with the interaction in children of fear and failure, and the effect of this on strategy and learning. RealLearning deals with the difference between what children appear to know or are expected to know, and what they really know. How SchoolsFail analyses the ways in which schools foster bad strategies, raise children's fears, produce learning which is usually fragmentary, distorted, and short-lived, and generally fail to meet the real needs of children. These four topics are clearly not exclusive. They tend to overlap and blend into each other. They are, at most, different ways of looking at and thinking about the thinking and behaviour of children.It must be made clear that the book is not about unusually bad schools or backward children. The schools in which the experiences described here took place are private schools of the highest standards and reputation. With very few exceptions, the children whose work is described are well above the average in intelligence and are, to all outward appearances, successful, and on their way to 'good' secondary schools and colleges. Friends and colleagues, who understand what I am trying to say about the harmful effect of today's schooling on the character and intellect of children, and who have visited many more schools than I have, tell me that the schools I have not seen are not a bit better than those I have, and very often are worse.How children fail by John Holt, Pitman, 1965Suggested answer.HOW CHILDREN FAILMost children in school fail.o High School - forty per cento College - thirty three per cent.o Others in fact if not name - complete becausepushed, know anythingo But, more importantly, fail to developfull capacity for learning.Why ?

Although this ordering may have given the reader a distorted impression of the historical importance of X-rays, this impression will be corrected shortly as we describe the crucial role played by X-rays in the development of modern physics.X-rays were discovered in 1895 by Roentgen while studying the phenomena of gaseous discharge. Using a cathode ray tube with a high voltage of several tens of kilovolts, he noticed that salts of barium would fluoresce when brought near the tube, although nothing visible was emitted by the tube. This effect persisted when the tube was wrapped with a layer of black cardboard. Roentgen soon established that theagency responsible for the fluorescence originated at the point at which the stream of energetic electrons struck the glass wall of the tube. Because of its unknown nature, he gave this agency the name X-rays. He found that X-rays could manifest themselves by darkening wrapped photographic plates, discharging charged electroscopes, as well as by causing fluorescence in a number of different substances. He also found that X-rays can penetrate considerable thicknesses of materials of low atomic number, whereas substances of high atomic number are relatively opaque. Roentgen took the first steps in identifying the nature of X-rays by using a system of slits to show that (1) they travel in straight lines, and that (2) they are uncharged, because they are not deflected by electric or magnetic fields.The discovery of X-rays aroused the interest of all physicists, and many joined in the investigation of their properties. In 1899 Haga and Wind performed a single slit diffraction experiment with X-rays which showed that (3) X-rays are a wave motion phenomenon, and, from the size of the diffraction pattern, their wavelength could be estimated to be 10-8 cm. In 1906 Barkla proved that (4) the waves are transverse by showing that they can be polarized by scattering from many materials.There is, of course, no longer anything unknown about the nature of X-rays. They are electromagnetic radiation of exactly the same nature as visible light, except that their wavelength is several orders of magnitudeshorter. This conclusion follows from comparing properties 1 through 4 with the similar properties of visible light, but it was actually postulated by Thomson several years before all these properties were known. Thomson argued that X-rays are electromagnetic radiation because such radiation would be expected to be emitted from the point at which the electrons strike the wall of a cathode ray tube. At this point, the electrons suffer very violent accelerations in coming to a stop and, according to classical electromagnetic theory, all accelerated charged particles emit electromagnetic radiations. We shall see later that this explanation of the production of X-rays is at least partially correct.In common with other electromagnetic radiations, X-rays exhibit particle-like aspects as well as wave-like aspects. The reader will recall that the Compton effect, which is one of the most convincing demonstrations of the existence of quanta, was originally observed with electromagnetic radiation in the X-ray region of wavelengths.AnswersRead the following text quickly and answer the questions.1.When were X-rays discovered?2.Who discovered them?3.What are the four characteristics of X-rays?1.18952.Roentgen3.1. they travel in straight lines2. they are uncharged3. they are a wave motion phenomenon4. the waves are transverseSection DTranslate the following passage into Chinese:When you are researching, write down every idea, fact, quotation, or paraphrase on a separate index card.

Unit1 text A福岛的燕子我们对低剂量辐射对生物体和生态系统的影响知之甚少。

福岛核灾难四年后,科学家们开始得到一些答案。

By Steven Featherstone 直到1986年4月26日切洛贝利核电站的一个反应堆发生爆炸,在整个北半球扩散了相当于400枚广岛核弹的辐射尘,对于辐射对植被和野生动物的影响科学家几乎一无所知。

这场灾难创造了一个活生生的实验室,特别是在爆炸地点周围1100平方英里的地方,被称为禁区。

1994年,德克萨斯理工大学生物学教授罗纳德·切斯尔(Ronald Chesser)和罗伯特·贝克(Robert Baker)都是首批获准进入该区域的美国科学家。

我们抓到了一群田鼠,它们看起来像杂草一样健康。

贝克回忆说:“我们开始对它着迷。

当贝克和切斯对田鼠的DNA进行测序时,他们没有发现异常突变率。

他们还注意到,狼、猞猁和其他曾经稀有的物种在该区域游荡,仿佛它是一个原子野生动物保护区。

切洛贝利论坛由联合国一些机构于2003年成立,发表了一份关于切洛贝利利灾难20周年的报告,证实了这一观点,声称“环境改变对该地区的生物群产生了积极影响”,将其转变为“一个独特的生物多样性保护区”。

在Baker和Chesser对该地区进行田鼠研究的五年后,Timothy A.Mousseau 前往切洛贝利对鸟类进行了计数,发现了相互矛盾的证据。

南卡罗来纳大学生物学教授穆索和他的合作者现任巴黎南部大学生态,系统学与进化实验室的研究主任-- Anders Pape Moller,特别的研究了常见的乡村谷仓燕(Hirundo Rustica)。

他们发现该地区的燕子少得多,幸存下来的燕子寿命较短,生育力降低(男性),大脑较小,肿瘤,部分白化病(一种基因突变)和白内障发生率较高。

Mousseau 和Moller在过去13年发表的60多篇论文中表明,暴露于低水平辐射对该区域的整个生物圈(从微生物到哺乳动物,从虫子到鸟类)都有负面影响。

cryptography
Cryptography is the study of mathematical techniques related to aspects of information security such as confidentiality, data integrity, entity authentication, and data origin authentication.
Hash functions are employed in symmetric and asymmetric encryption systems and are used to calculate a fingerprint/imprint of a message or document.

hash function and hash value
When hashing a message, the message is converted into a short bit string--a hash value-and it is impossible to re-establish the original message from the hash value.
A hash value is unique in the sense that two messages cannot result in the same bit string, and any attempt to make changes to the message will negate the value and thus the signature.
Hash Function is an algorithm that transforms a string of characters into a usually shorter value of a fixed length or a key that represents the original value. This is called the hash value.

digital cash
Digital cash is a digitally signed payment message that serves as a medium of exchange. Digital cash is a system of purchasing cash credits in relatively small amounts, storing the credits in your computer, and then spending them when making electronic purchases over the Internet.
private key
It is the key for use with asymmetric encryption that is accessible to the key holder only. Asymmetric encryption uses different keys for encryption and decryption. Each participant is assigned a pair of keys, consisting of an encryption key and a corresponding decryption key.
As the Internet and other forms of electronic communication become more prevalent, electronic security is also becoming increasingly important. Cryptography is used to protect e-mail messages, credit card information, and corporate data.
