Unit 8 Nature and NurtureTwins, Genes, and EnvironmentHeredity or environment: which is stronger? The potentials which a person is born with determine in some way what he will do in life. Therefore heredity is fate, a kind of predestination. However, genes do not work in a vacuum; as soon as we begin considering the role that they play in the development of the individual, we see that there can be no development without the interacting environment. No characteristic is caused exclusively by either environment or genes.The relative effects of heredity and environment are most clearly observable in identical twins. Most identical twins are raised together and are remarkably alike in both appearance and behavior. These cases demonstrate that individuals with the same genes, when raised in the same environment, will respond to it in much the same way. They do not indicate what would happen if these identical individuals were raised separately.A number of studies have been made of identical twins raised apart. The twins who were the subjects of these studies lived in America, were raised in much the same physical environments, and experienced much the same nutritional histories. Therefore, as one might expect, they maintained the closest resemblance to each other in physical appearance, height, and weight. Exceptions occurred when one twin had developed a rather severe illness and the other had not; but on the whole everyone is impressed by the great psychological and physical likenesses that exist between identical twins, even those who have been separated from infancy.In a study of nineteen sets of twins who had been separated from birth, investigators found that in approximately two thirds of the sets there were no more significant differences than existed among unseparated pairs of twins. This strongly suggests the power of the genes and the limitation of the effect of environment. However, it must be remembered that, although the identical twins who were studied lived in different families far removed from each other, the environments in those families were not, on the whole, substantially different. Usually every effort would be made to put each child in a home with a background similar to that of its own family, and therefore it should not be surprising to find that the twins developed similarly. But in those cases in which there had been a greater difference in the environments of the separated twins, the differences between the twins were more substantial. The following case illustrates what happens to identical twins when they are brought up in contrasting environments.Gladys and Helen were born in a small Ohio town and were separated at about eighteen months of age. They did not meet again until they were twenty-eight years old. Helen had been adopted twice. Her first foster parents had proved to be unstable, and Helen had been returned to the orphanage after a couple of years; after several months she was again adopted, by a farmer and his wife who lived in southeastern Michigan. This was her home for the next twenty-five years. Her second foster-mother, though she had had few educational advantages herself, was determined that Helen should receive a good education; Helen eventually graduated from college, taught school for twelve years, married at twenty-six, and had a daughter.Gladys was adopted by a Canadian railroad conductor and his wife. When she was in the third grade, the family moved to a rather isolated part of the Canadian Rockies, where there were no schools, and Gladys' formal education came to an end, and was not resumed until the family moved to Ontario. She stayed at home and did housework until she was seventeen, and then went to work in a knitting mill. She went to Detroit at nineteen, got a job, and married when she was twenty-one.Helen had been healthier than Gladys, in childhood and adulthood, but other than that, their environments had been very similar except for their educations. Their weight, height, hair color, and teeth were very similar. The differences that distinguished them were obviously associated with the different social lives they had led.Helen was confident, graceful, made the most of her personal appearance, and showed considerable polish and ease in social relationships. Gladys was shy, self-conscious, quiet and without charming or graceful manners. A scientist who studied them remarked, "As an advertisement for a college education the contrast between these two twins should be quite effective."Considering the nature of their environmental experiences, the differences in Helen and Gladys are not surprising. Since psychological traits depend so much upon experience, it is to be expected that they will reflect it. On the other hand, traits that are not liable to be influenced by the environment are more likely to exhibit a high degree of similarity in identical twins. Important as they are, genes alone are never absolutely responsible for any trait. What we can do is set by the genes, but what we actually do is largely determined by the environment.基因、环境与双胞胎遗传与环境究竟哪一个影响更大呢？从某种程度上讲，一个人生来具有的潜力将决定他一生的作为。

Uｎiｔ8 课文翻译课文ARefleｃtｉonｓof ａChｉnｅse ｍother iｎｔhe West一位西方华裔母亲得思考1.很多人想了解中国父母就是如何培养出如此成功得孩子得。
她们想知道,为什么这些中国父母能养育出那么多天分极佳得孩子,她们就是否也能培养出这样得孩子呢?2.事实就是,中国父母得做法,对固执己见得西方人来说,令人愤慨,难以想象,甚至就是违法得、中国母亲可以不客气地对正在狼吞虎咽得肥胖孩子说:“喂,小胖子,您要减肥了。
”与此相反,西方父母必须体谅地、小心翼翼而拐弯抹角地谈及“健康”,而且永远都不会提及“胖"字、结果,孩子还就是因为饮食紊乱与消极得自我评价得去求医问药。
长期以来我一直苦思冥想,中国父母这样做就是如何能够全身而退得,我认为中西方得父母之间存在三种意识形态上得差异。
3.首先,我注意到西方父母呵护子女得自尊,使她们免受一切批评。
她们担心孩子失败后得感受,于就是不断尽其所能解除子女得忧虑,而不管其表现如何糟糕。
西方父母认为孩子就是娇弱得,不够坚强,因此她们得行为也就与中国父母大相径庭了。
4.举个例子,如果一个孩子考试得了个Aˉ回家,西方父母很可能会表扬孩子。
而对中国母亲来说, Aˉ根本不算什么好成绩;她还会不快地叹气,问到底出了什么问题。
如果孩子得了Ｂ回家,一些西方父母尽管十分不情愿,仍然会表扬孩子。
其她西方父母会表达出不满,但不会质疑孩子得智力,或贸然说孩子“笨蛋”、“一文不值”或“太可恶了”、而私下里,西方父母可能会感到担心,但绝不会让孩子们知道、5.如果中国孩子得了B,不管什么科目,首先面临得就就是一声尖叫与恼怒得爆发、中国母亲会更加不遗余力地找来几十也许几百套得测验题,不惜采取手头任何办法来让自己孩子得成绩提高到Ａ。
6.中国父母要求完美得成绩,因为她们理所当然地认为孩子完全可以做到,而且分数就是比“自尊”更为重要得衡量成功得标准、如果孩子没拿到全A,中国父母就认为这就是因为孩子不够努力。

Unit 8 Two Truths to Live By课文翻译
1. 生活的艺术就是要懂得何时紧抓、何时放手，因为人生就是个矛盾：在令我们依恋于它所赋予的种种恩赐的同时，它也注定我们最终得放弃这些恩赐。
正如古代的犹太学者们所言：“人降世时拳头紧握，但离世时还得松手。
”2. 我们当然要紧抓生命，不仅因为它奇妙无比，而且因为它所蕴含的美已散布到了地球的每个角落。
其实，我们都懂得这个道理，然而我们往往只有在回首过去时才会明白这一点，只是在记起它往昔的美丽时，我们却突然发现已时过境迁了。
3. 我们铭记褪色的美、消逝的爱。
但是这种记忆却饱含着苦涩，我们痛惜没有在美丽绽放的时候注意它，没有在爱情到来的时候回应它。
4. 最近的一次经历再次使我明白了这个道理。
一次严重的心脏病发作之后，我在重症监护病房住了几天。
那不是个令人愉快的地方。
5. 一天上午，我得接受几项额外的检查。
由于所需的检查器械在医院另一头的一幢建筑里，所以我得躺在轮床上被推着穿过院落。
6. 在我们从病房出来的瞬间，阳光洒在我的身上，我所感觉到的就只有这阳光。
它是多么美丽，多么温暖，多么闪耀，多么辉煌啊！7. 我环视四周，看看是否还有其他人也在享受这金色的阳光，然而所有的人都是来去匆匆，且大多数人眼睛只顾盯着地面。
继而我便想到，我也常常陷于琐事，有时甚至陷入俗物之中，对身边每天的美景也是视而不见。
8. 我从这次经历所洞悉的灼见，其实与这次经历本身一样平淡无奇：生命的恩赐是珍贵的—只是我们对此从未留心罢了。
9. 因此，对我们有着自相矛盾的要求的人生一方面要求我们：不要过于忙碌而错失生活中的美好和庄严; 虔诚地迎接每个黎明的到来；拥抱每一个时辰，抓住珍贵的每一分钟。
10. 紧紧把握人生……但又不能抓得过死，松不开手。
这是人生这枚硬币的另一面，也正是其矛盾的另一面：我们必须接受失去的现实，学会如何放手。
11. 要学会这点并非易事。
尤其当我们年轻时，以为世界在我们的掌控之中，但凡激情满怀的我们一心想得到的东西，都将属于我们。

对男性和女性的拍摄手法是完全不同的。
我对女性朋友的“电影式”记忆是开放的、亲密无间的。
我们交谈着，像磁铁般互相吸引着。

习惯性的行动，或者说一系列的动作，弥补了对话及坦诚倾诉方面的不足。
2我回想起我儿时最早的朋友唐纳德。
那时候我还住在欧洲，我家房子附近有一辆战后遗弃的德国旧卡车。
没有轮子，没有挡风玻璃，没有车门。
但是方向盘还完好无损。
我和唐纳德一直开着这辆卡车——也就是我们的“飞机”——“飞往”美国。
即使到现在，我还记得我们每天飞行的那个套路。
我们飞过欧洲，飞越大西洋，去执行救援任务。
那时候的我们单纯，形影不离，有着最好的朋友之间才有的那种高度安全感。
自然，对于我们彼此间显而易见的感情，我们从未吐露过一个字，一切尽付诸行动。
3每天，当我们飞翔在大西洋上空时，总是不可避免地会出现那精彩的时刻：“发动机故障！”我总会对着麦克风大叫，“我们必须跳出去。
”“啊－啊－啊－啊－啊－！”唐纳德发出像发动机出现故障时的声音。
他看了我一眼，说：“我不会游泳啊!”“别怕！我会把你拉上岸的。
”我总是勇敢地回答。
于是，说完这些后，我们两人都从卡车里扑到满是尘土的街道上。
我在尘土中游泳。
唐纳德淹没在尘土中，一边咳嗽，一边大叫：“有鲨鱼！”但我总是会把他救上来。
第二天，我们交换角色，那精心策划的一幕又重复上演。
“我不会游泳啊！”我会喊道，而唐纳德就会来救我。
我俩数百次地把对方从必死的境地中救出，直到最终有一天我家真的要去美国了。
我和唐纳德在火车站呆呆地站着，准备道别。
我们不知道该说些什么，这次我们谁也救不了谁。
于是，当火车驶离时，我俩只是默默地流泪。

A Fable For TomorrowThere was once a town In the heart of America where all life seemed to live in harmony with its surroundings. The town lay in the midst of a checkerboard of prosperous farms, with fields of grain and hillsides of orchards where, in spring, white clouds of bloom drifted above the green fields. In autumn, oak and maple and birch set up a blaze of colour that flamed and flickered across a backdrop of pines. Then foxes barked in the hills and deer silently crossed the field, half hidden in the mists of the autumn mornings.明天的寓言从前在美国中心有一个小镇，那里的万物看上去都与其四周的环境融洽相处。
小镇的四周是像棋盘交错的兴旺的农庄，还有一块块的田地和一座座遍布山坡的果园。
春天来了，白色的鲜花云彩般地漂浮在绿色的田野上；秋天到了，橡树、枫树和桦树色彩斑斓，在一片松树林间火焰般地燃烧与跳跃。
小山上狐狸吠叫，田野间小鹿静静地跃过，所有的一切都在秋天清晨的薄雾中半隐半现。
Along the roads, laurel, viburnum and alder, great ferns and wild flowers, delighted the traveler’s eye through much of the year. Even in winter the roadsides were places of beauty, where countless birds came to feed on the berries and on the seed heads of the dried weeds rising above the snow. The countryside was, in fact, famous for the abundance and variety of its bird life, and when the flood of migrants was pouring through in spring and autumn people travelled from great distances to observe them. Others came to fish the streams, which flowed clear and cold out of the hills and contained shady pools where trout lay. So it had been from the days many years ago when the first settlers raised their houses, sank their wells and built their barns.在路的两旁，一年中许多时候，月桂树、荚莲、桤木、蕨类植物和各样的野花都能让过往的行人赏心悦目。

Unit 8 Money新编大学英语第二版第二册课文翻译
Unit 8 MoneyTime Spent Agonizing over Money[1] Within hours of a recent major stock market drop, I telephoned my Ford dealer and ordered the station wagon that I test-drove the day before. As my friends not so subtly pointed out, the Dow Jones Industrial Average didn't have much to do with my financial situation and shouldn't affect my purchase. Besides, my old car had caused me headaches for months.[2] Still, I spent the evening asking myself: Could I afford a new car? Should I be saving instead of spending? Would we need to cut back on vacations?[3] On the list of items people worry about, money is almost always at the top.[4] A study in the Wall Street Journal found that 70 percent of the public lives from paycheck to paycheck. Mortgage debt has increased 300 percent since 1975, and consumer bankruptcies are at an all-time high. Most marriages that fail list financial problems as a contributing factor.[5] When the Dow fell 554 points last October, millions of people lost billions of dollars, on paper anyway. There was expert anxiety on Wall Street and old-fashioned worry on Main Street. Our reaction confirmed what we already knew: We are a people consumed by financial stress.*A “Raw Material”[6] As the Bible tells us, worrying about money—or anything else for that matter—won't do us any good. “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?” Jesus asked. “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow? They do not labor or spin.”[7] In my heart, I aspire to be like those lilies. But in my head, I feel a need to hoard.[8] It is an unusual person who can live free from financial stress, or who can spend money on others as easily as he spends it on himself.[9] Thomas Edison was one of that rare breed. Had the great inventor stored his money, he would have died a wealthy man. His first successful invention netted him $40,000, a huge sum in 1869. During his lifetime, he patented 1,093 inventions, yet he departed the world penniless.[10] Years later, his son C harles recalled his father's approach to money: “He considered it a raw material, like metal, to be used rather than amassed, and so he kept plowing his funds back into new objects. Several times he was all but bankrupt. But he refused to let dollar signs govern his actions.”[11] John Wesley was the same. The founder of Methodism had the highest earnedincome in 18th century England, but he gave it all away. His philosophy about money was simple: “Earn all you can, save all you can, give all you can.”*Root of Evil?[12] Money may not be the root of all evil, but if it keeps us up at night, it has become way too important in our lives.[13] That was the lesson of Leo Tolstoy's tale “Elias”, which told of a rich farm couple who lost all their money and were forced to take jobs as servants.[14] A guest one day asked the wife if she was miserable being poor, especially in light of the great wealth she had once enjoyed. The woman's answer—that she was happier than ever before—surprised the visitor.[15] “W hen we were rich, my husband and I had so many cares that we had no time to talk to one another, or to think of our souls, or to pray to God,” the wife explained. “We lay awake at night worrying, lest the ewes should lie on their lambs, and we got up again and again to see that all was well... Now, when my husband and I wake in the morning, we always greet each other in love and harmony. We live peacefully, having nothing to worry about.”[16] For most of us, financial security is an elusive goal. No matter how much we have, it's not enough. Kahlil Gibran put it this way: “The fear of need, when the pantry is full, is the thirst that can not be satisfied.”[17] When the stock market falls, we can panic, hoard, and worry if we have enough. Or we can take a deep breath and remember: Money is merely a raw material to be plowed back into something else.把时间花在为钱苦恼上1 最近一次股市大跌后的几个小时内，我就打电话给我的福特汽车商，订购了我前一天试开过的旅行车。

TEXT AAnimals or children? — A scientist's choice动物还是孩子？—— 一位科学家的选择1 I am the enemy! I am one of those cursed, cruel physician scientists involved in animal research. These rumors sting, for I have never thought of myself as an evil person. I became a children's doctor because of my love for children and my supreme desire to keep them healthy. During medical school and residency, I saw many children die of cancer and bloodshed from injury — circumstances against which medicine has made great progress but still has a long way to go. More importantly, I also saw children healthy thanks to advances in medical science such as infant breathing support, powerful new medicines and surgical techniques and the entire field of organ transplantation. My desire to tip the scales in favor of healthy, happy children drew me to medical research.我就是那个敌人！我就是那些被人诅咒的、残忍的、搞动物实验的医生科学家之一。

【良心出品】Unit 8 Love and Resentment 课文翻译
Unit 8LOVE AND RESENTMENTBarbara Bick1. I straightened up from my weeding as the frenzied mutterings of anger reached me from the house. My muscles tightened. The screams were so muffled I could barely hear them. "Get away from me, you filthy slut. Leave me alone."2. I moved cautiously through the overgrown bushes, up against the bathroom window, straining to catch the exact words. I want to understand my daughter. "Shut up! Shut up! You always do everything wrong. Incompetent bitch?" The flushing toilet drowned out the rest. I moved away quickly, shaken once again by her wild outbursts. Sometimes she frightens me when she is clearly out of control. But this time I was reassured; she didn't want me to hear. I bent to my weeding as she opened the screen door. She sat down. Her face was calm and impassive.3. "Can I help you, mother?" she asked as she lighted her umpteenth cigarette of the morning and was shaken by her usual barking cough.4. "Sure. Why don't you pull up some of the weeds between the bricks on the path."5. "Oh, that's too hard," she said and she settled deeper into the deck chair.6. "Damn it, Kathy, why is everything too hard for you? Go ahead, get the stool and do what you can." I snapped at her.7. Damn it yourself, I said to myself. Why did I bring her up here? Why, why, why? Yesterday had been rough. She had hurled accusation after accusation at me. "Why do you always say I'm crazy?" she had yelled. "Don't you EVER tell me I'm a paranoid schizophrenic again. That's all you ever do -- call me crazy and I'm not."8. "Kathy," my voice quieter and quieter as hers rose in crescendo, "I have never called you crazy. Please, Kathy, keep your voice down. Kathy, stop it. Stop it right now!"9. I shook away that memory and rose laboriously. I had just come to the island and so I was eager to clean up my burgeoning garden after a winter's neglect. This is the fourth year I have had this tiny treasure of a house. It was to be my retreat from theharassing city, the social and political commitments I take on each year, the needs of family and friends.10. For three summers I have brought my 40-year-old daughter to the island to spend two weeks with me. Surely, I can live for two weeks with the tension and outbursts. Her life is so limited and mine is so full. A short span of days, really, for me to take care of her; to give her some joy. I have so many days, just for me, after she goes back to the city.11. But I can't. I resent the tension. I lose patience. Sometimes I hate her. What is wrong with me? I am strong and healthy; she is vulnerable and ill. It is always my choice to have her here. But I count the days until she is gone and there are moments when I think, no, not another summer. Why do this to myself? Most of the time I know that these weeks are too important to her; I cannot take them away.12. She doesn't sleep well. Before I came up, I discussed the sleeping problem with her psychiatrist so that he could prescribe some medication. I couldn't bring myself to tell him that I am afraid to be deep in sleep while she is awake. She is not physically violent. In all the 24 years of her illness, she has attacked me only three times. But they remain with me. Each time, her adrenaline-induced strength had overwhelmed me. And no matter how intimate one is with this illness, the primordial fear of madness lurks deep within. The medication the doctor suggested doesn't work and my bedroom here is an open room without a door to lock. So, I sleep lightly these nights. I sense the lights blazing downstairs. I listen to her cough as she smokes and mutters through the long hours. I try to imagine — out of my own healthy body — what it is like to be Kathy.13. Physically, she always feels unwell. The antipsychotic medication has many unpleasant side effects. More than that, she has no empathy with her own body, cannot take care of it. She eats badly, drinks coffee constantly, smokes incessantly, does no exercise. She has perpetual headaches and frequent stomachaches.14. For years she suffered from Crohn's disease, a deep inflammation of the colon, leaving her little or no control of her bowels. She has been plagued and humiliated by accidents in public. People have responded to this affliction by yelling at her, calling her filthy. She has silently accepted the appellation, taken it within her. "Filthy bitch!" she yells at herself. "Go away!"15. I lie awake, my throat tight and aching as I remember the years when her illness was more active, filled with agonizing hallucinations that most of us, during a lifetime, experience for only seconds in our worst, most searing nightmares.16. She had been a normal, beautiful child. The changes began in high school. Kathy started a diary when she was 16 years old. She wrote: "This morning I feel as though someone took a file and sandpaper and scratched off all my epidermis. I feel raw and sore and ugly and dirty and loathsome. I also have a headache and coffee makes it worse. I escape thru dreams and the pressure of returning reality gives me a headache.17. "Something inside me is going thru this funny, alien state, a sense of being at the mercy of some strange force, and this pathetic scarecrow figure inside me at the mercy of other forces. My stomach is empty and gnawing and uneasy as if anything could fall in and break the superstructure I hold up with all my force."18. Kathy did go off to college. The trauma of her breakdown there was followed by the deadening travail of the long search for a psychiatric solution. Then, a decade of daily life in the huge psychiatric hospital, the "crazy house" as she always called it. In those years, she has never been able to draw a deep breath full of good life.19. The daughter I would have had — were it not for this evil illness — exists in embryo in the daughter I do have. After an outburst, she will come and tell me quietly: "I am sorry, mother. I don't want to fight with you."20. "Thank you," she will say: "for giving me a good day."21. To admit the truth, sometimes I trigger her outburst. Like Tuesday, when I came upon her pouring coffee straight from the jar, half filling her cup with the powder and splattering grains over the counter. I ordered her, peremptorily: "Get a spoon, Kathy. Can't you do things normally once in a while!"22. She whirled and, in a shrill tone, screamed: "I am sick of you always telling me what to do. I am an adult and I don't need you to tell me when to go to bed and when to get up." Hysteria building up, she shouted: "You drive everyone to the edge of hemophiliac absurdity!" Magnetic waves of burning energy rushed from her, hit me and I lashed back, "Get out of this house, Kathy. RIGHT NOW, get out!"23. Later, in the evening, she almost whispers to me: "I've washed my hair, done my nails, and I've cleaned up the dinner dishes. I feel much better now." And I feel sad and ashamed. I know her greatest wish is to live with me all of the time, to have me take care of her, cook her good meals every day as I do these two weeks on the island.24. That I will not do. I must live my own life. But I will give her the small chunks of time: the island for two weeks in summer; at home with me at Christmas; a trip to Florida to see her grandparents. I will also allow myself to resent it sometimes. Like my daughter, like all other human beings, I am not spun of one thread. I love and hate the same person.I am responsible and irresponsible. I will do the best I can with the worst I have to live with.爱与恨1. 癫狂愤怒的喃喃自语声从屋子里传出来，我停止除草，站起身来。
unit 8课文翻译
1、2、 There was once a town in the heart of America where all life seemedto live in harmony with its surroundings. The town lay in the midst of a checkerboard of prosperous farms, with fields of grain and hillsides of orchards where, in spring, white clouds of bloom drifted above the green fields. In autumn, oak and maple and birch set up a blaze of colour that flamed and flickered across a backdrop of pines. Then foxes barked in the hills and deer silently crossed the fields, half hidden in the mists of the autumn mornings在美国的腹地曾有过这样一座小镇，那里所有的生灵都与周围环境和谐相处，小镇位于星罗棋布的富足的农场之中遍地是庄稼，满山腰都是果园。
春天里一簇簇花朵像白云般漂浮在绿色的田野上，秋季到来时，橡树，枫树和白桦树五彩缤纷，在大片松林的衬托下如同一片火海。
那时候狐狸在山中吠叫，鹿群默默地穿过田野，在秋天的晨雾中时隐时现。
3、4、Along the roads, laurel, viburnum and alder, great ferns and wild flowers, delighted the traveller's eye through much of the year. Even in winter the roadsides were places of beauty, where countless birds came to feed on the berries and on the seed heads of the dried weeds rising above the snow. The countryside was, in fact, famous for the abundance andvariety of its bird life, and when the flood of migrants was pouring through in spring and autumn people travelled from great distances to observe them. Others came to fish the streams, which flowed clear and cold out of the hills and contained shady pools where trout lay. So it had been from the days many years ago when the first settlers raised their houses, sank their wells and built their barns. 在路边，月桂、芙莲、桤木、大羊齿和各种野花几乎常年不绝，令行人目不暇接，即使在冬天路边也很美丽，数不清的鸟儿飞来觅食，寻找浆果和没有被积雪埋没的干旱籽穗。
Unit 8 Honesty 课文翻译
• Washington’s first biographer invented the tale of little George saying to his father, “I cannot tell a lie. I did it with my ax.” What is important in both stories, however, is that honesty was seen as an important part of the American character.
• 越来越多的州要求学生通过能力测试以取 得中学毕业文凭。很多教育学家担心，更 多地利用州级考试将会导致作弊的相应增 加。
• A case in point is students in New York State who faced criminal misdemeanor charges for possessing and selling advance copies of state Regents examinations.

事实上，这里的乡村，是因为它那数量客观种类繁多的鸟类而闻名的。
春天和秋季，成群的鸟儿飞来，许多人从大老远的地方赶来观赏。
也有人在小溪，池塘，水塘边钓鱼。
那里的水清澈加之从山上流下，又带着些许凉意。
所以在很早以前，第一批住户就在这里建房，挖井，造牲畜棚。
然而灾难降临了这个小镇，一切都变了。
3、Then a strange blight crept over the area and everything began to change. Some evil spell had settled on the community: mysterious maladies swept the flocks of chickens; the cattle and sheep sickened and died. Everywhere was a shadow of death. The farmers spoke of much illness among their families. In the town the doctors had become more and more puzzled by new kinds of sickness appearing among their patients. There had been several sudden and unexplained deaths not only among adults but even among children, who would be stricken suddenly while at play and die within a few hours. 后来，一种奇怪的疫病在这个地区悄悄蔓延开来。
一切不再依旧，这个社区中了一种什么邪，一群群鸡很快都染上了神秘的疾病，牛羊纷纷病死，到处是死亡的阴影，农场主们说家中有不少人得病，镇上的医生对他们的病人得的新病症越来越迷惑不解，不仅成年人有莫名其妙突然死去的，甚至在小孩中，也有在玩耍时突然得病，在数小时之内死去的。
4、There was a strange stillness. The birds, for example — where had they gone? Many people spoke of them, puzzled and disturbed. The feedingstations in the backyards were deserted. The few birds seen anywhere weremoribund; they trembled violently and could not fly. It was a spring without voices. On the mornings that had once throbbed with the dawn chorus of robins, catbirds, doves, jays, wrens, and scores of other bird voices there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh.小镇有一种奇怪的寂静。
例如鸟类-它们都去哪儿了？许多人一说起鸟儿就感到迷惑不解，坐立不安。
进料站在后院空无一人。
随处看见几只鸟都奄奄一息；他们剧烈地抖动着，不能飞。
它是一个无声的春天。
那曾在着罗宾斯，猫，鸽子，松鸦，鹪鹩的黎明合唱的早晨，和许多其他的鸟的声音现在有没有声音；只有寂静横躺在田野和树林和沼泽。
5、On the farms the hens brooded, but no chicks were hatched. The farmers complained that they were unable to raise any pigs — the litters were small and the young survived only a few days. The apple trees were coming into bloom but no bees droned among the blossoms, so there was no pollination and there would be no fruit. 在农场的母鸡蹲在窝里，但孵不出小鸡出来。
农民抱怨说，他们无法养猪了——母猪下仔越来越少，而且小猪只能存活几天。
苹果树开了花，但花丛中没有蜜蜂嗡嗡地穿行，因此没有了授粉，也没有结果。
6、The roadsides, once so attractive, were now lined with browned and withered vegetation as though swept by fire. These too, were silent, deserted by all living things. Even the streams were now lifeless. Anglers no longer visited them, for all the fish had died. 曾经是引人驻足的路边，现在却只有褐色的枯草朽木，好像被大火烧了似的，这里也是无声无息，没有任何的生灵足迹，连小溪也毫无生气。
垂钓者不再光临，因为鱼儿全都死光了。
7、In the gutters under the eaves and between the shingles of roofs,white granular powder still showed a few patches;some weeks before it had fallen like snow upon the roofs and the lawns ,the fields and streams.在屋檐下的水沟和屋顶木瓦间缝中，仍有几处白色粉末的斑痕，数周之前这种粉末像雪花一样飘到屋顶和草坪上，飘落到田野和溪流中。
8、No witchcraft,no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world.The people had done it themselves.在这个遭遇灾难的世界里，扼杀新生命的不是巫术，也不是敌人的进攻，而是人们自己的所作所为。
9、This town does not actually exist,but it might easily have a thousand counterparts in America or elsewhere in the world.I know of no community that has experienced all the misfortunes I describe.Yet every one of these disasters has actually happened somewhere,and many real communities have already suffered a suffered a substantial number of them.A grim spectre has crept upon us almost unnoticed,and this imagined tragedy may easily become a stark reality we all shall know.这座小镇在现实世界中并不存在，但是在美国和世界的其他地方，很有可能会轻易举的有数千个遭遇到与其他类似命运的小镇出现。
