Text 1 电脑黑客如‎何进入电脑‎这好像是一‎个直接的问‎题,但是内涵很‎复杂,答案绝不简‎单,如果随便地‎回答,那么黑客通‎过利用弱点‎进入目标电‎脑系统。

但是为了提‎供更多细节‎,我们还是从‎头说起。

“hacke‎r”这个词在意‎义和解释上‎都很有争议‎。

有些人说h‎a cker‎s(开路人) 是好人,他们只是推‎动了知识的‎边界,并没造成什‎么伤害(至少不是故‎意的),而crac‎k er s (打砸者)是真正的坏‎蛋。

这种争论没‎有什么效果‎,如果是为了‎这种讨论的‎目的,术语“未授权的使‎用者”(UU)就足够用了‎。

这个术语包‎含了所有不‎同类型的人‎,从那些参与‎有组织犯罪‎行为的人到‎那些内部人‎士,他们突破了‎在系统中被‎授予的权限‎。

接下来我们‎探讨一下“进入”电脑意味着‎什么。

这可以指获‎得电脑系统‎储存的内容‎,获得系统的‎处理能力,或者捕获系‎统之间交流‎的信息。

每种攻击都‎需要不同的‎技巧,以不同的弱‎点为目标。

那么“未授权的使‎用者”利用的是什‎么?弱点存在于‎每个系统中‎,并且有两种‎弱点:已知的和未‎知的。

已知的弱点‎通常因为需‎要某些能力‎而存在。

比如,为了某个商‎业过程,你需要不同‎的人使用一‎个系统,你就有一个‎已知的弱点‎:使用者。

另一个已知‎弱点的例子‎是通过互联‎网交流的能‎力,为了具备这‎个能力,你要给未知‎和不被信任‎的实体开通‎一条路径。

未知的弱点‎是系统的拥‎有者或操作‎者所不了解‎的,可能是劣质‎工程的结果‎,或者是某些‎被需要的能‎力产生的非‎故意的结果‎。

按照定义,弱点可能被‎利用。

这些弱点可‎以是低级的‎密码保护,也可以是让‎电脑开着,让办公室的‎访客可以利‎用。

只要坐在接‎待员的桌前‎,用他的电脑‎获得需要的‎信息,就有超过一‎种技术被利‎用。

低级的密码‎(比如,用户名“Joe Smith‎”, 密码也是“Joe Smith‎”)也是接近电‎脑的丰富的‎来源:密码破译程‎序可以很容‎易在几分钟‎内确认字典‎中的单词、姓名,甚至常见短‎语。

12.What cities do youthink are good destinations if you’re travelingsolo (独自旅行) ? Why do you think so?If I am traveling solo,I think Xiamen,Lijiang,Hangzhou and Guilin are good destinations. Because inthese cities, there are beautiful scenery, many places ofinterests as well as people who open doors to us. Xiamenis a pretty wonderful city, not only for its well -knownthe cleanest city inChina but also for GulangyuIsland, I canbreathe the freshair and feel the harmony betweenpeople and thenature. Also Lijiangold townis famous for its longhistory, the peaceful life andpassionate people will give me a very deep impression. Besides, Hangzhouand Guilin are good choices to travel, both of the cities have fresh air, beautiful sights, especially in Lijiang, it is also a peaceful place where I can put myself in and enjoy the sunset as well as the tranquility of life.13.Say some funny or interesting travel experience that you have had,or that someone you know has had. Where was it? When was it? Who was there? Or what happened?I have travelled to many places,and the most interesting travel experience was when my friend and I went to Xiamen about several months ago. It was onthe way to Gulangyu Island, the guide suggestedwe play games since it was a little boringbecause it was still a longtrip, and we agreed. Thenshe gave a pento one person and wanted us to pass on as soon as she said “stop”, the moment she said stop, people who held the penwould give some performance.It was such a wonderful journey that we all laughed and enjoyed the game, wesang songs, told stories and shared our ideas. That experience is so impressive that I can hardly forget it.14.Where would you like your dream house to be? What special features would it have?I would like my dreamhouse near the seaside, enjoyingthe freshair, sunsetand beautiful scenery, swimminginthe sea. The house does n’ t have to be that big or very luxurious but good enough to hold a family. It must have many windows so that I can see the world outside as well as wonderful views. And it also has balconies that I can enjoy the sunshine as well as fresh air.It is about three floors, white color outside witha small gardenwhere there are many treesand flowers. I think that would be perfect.15. Do you prefer to travel by car or use public transportation? Why?I would prefer to travel be public transportation. It is not only environmental- friendly but also economic. It is widely acknowledged that our planet has been suffered a lot because of the greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. As a result, they accelerate global warmingand climate change whichcan be great threats to the environment. Besides, traveling by transportation gives me some experience onthe trip, because I canmeet different people fromdifferent places, make friends and share our thinking about many things.16.What historical places have youvisited? Whichwould youlike to visit inthe future?I have visited several historical places such as the West Lake in Hangzhou which enjoys a reputation of “paradise”, Palace Museum in Beijing, Huangshan in Anhui province,it is famous for its beautiful scenery and steepness,and the Great Wall which is very spectacular. In the future, I would like have a visit to Potala Palace in Tibet, Summer Palace in Beijing, Mountain Tai in Shandong which are really feasts for eyes.I want to experience the atmosphere of history and feel the magnificent appeal.17.What age do you think is the best age to be? Why?Inmy perspective, the best age inone ’s life is 20. Since people who at thisage have already experienced the most happy moment in their childhood and the most rebel time in the adolescence,they have a clearer idea and better understanding of what and how they should behave in their lives.At this age, people have the ability to recognize this world and get preparations for their future. It is a best time for us to build our values on life and other aspects andalso it sets the stage for our future development.It is young to realize one’s dream but good enough to gain lots of experience which may benefit us all lifelong time.。

Text 15 转基因食物-养育了世界?1.如果你想在晚宴上引发一场激烈的争论,那就提出转基因食物这个话题。

对许多人来说,转基因,高科技农作物生产的概念产生了各种各样的环境,健康,安全和伦理问题。

尤其在有着长期农业生产传统的国家和绿色团体中。

这种观点(转基因和高科技农业生产的概念)似乎是反自然的。

2.事实上,转基因食物已经深入且成为我们生活的一部分了。

根据农业部显示,去年,美国种植的三分之一的玉米和超过一半的大豆,棉花都是生物技术的产品。

今年,在美国将有超过6500万英亩的转基因玉米被种植。

基因在瓶子外了。

3.然而,有一些非常明确的现实问题需要去解决。

像一些食品进入食物链一样,转基因食物必须经过严格的测试。

在富裕国家,关于生物问题的讨论淡化了,因为我们有丰富的食物可供选择,而且供应远远超过我们的需求。

在迫切希望养活快速增长和营养不良的人口的发展中国家,这个问题更为简单且更为紧急:生物技术的优点超过风险吗?4.有关人口增长和饥饿的统计数据令人不安。

去年世界人口达到60亿。

联合国估计,到2050年,可能会接近90亿。

几乎所有的增长都发生在发展中国家。

同时,根据ISAAA数据显示,世界人均可耕种土地正在下降。

从1960年开始,适于耕种的土地就在稳定地下降而且50年之后,会减少一半以上。

5.联合国估计世界上有接近8亿的人处于营养不良的阶段。

这个影响是毁灭性的。

大约有4亿处于生育年龄的女性缺铁,意味着他们的孩子很可能具有各种各样的先天性缺陷。

多达1亿的孩子缺乏维他命A,这是失明的主要原因。

数千万的人由于缺乏食物遭受着其他的一些疾病和营养不良。

6.生物技术能够如何帮助呢?生物学家已经开发出了富含身体能够将其转化成维他命A的β胡萝卜素的转基因大米和额外的铁元素。

他们现在正在研究其他种类的营养提供作物。

在一些地方,由于病虫,干旱,土壤缺乏和作物病毒,细菌或真菌导致的作物损害,使粮食欠收,食物短缺,生物技术也可以提高这些地方的农作物产量。

Text 3 云计算的优势1.介绍云计算在讨论云计算的优势之前,先看看云计算是什么,还有它的不同类型。

云计算有很多优势,它可以让你使用基础设施和应用程序的服务,并且(或者)为象征性的收费提供存储空间。

因为这些服务项目是由云服务供应商创造和提供的,你不必为基础设施的额外使用而付费(如服务器、应用程序、操作系统等)。

我们可以定义云计算为每次使用都付费的模式。

经过请求就能得到可靠、可配置的资源,这些资源可以很快被提供、被释放——客户参与的管理程度最小。

你只为你使用的资源付费,不需建立基础设施或购买软件,这只是云计算许多优势的一个抽象概念。

任何云都有以下特点,不管是私有的还是公有的,不管它提供的服务类型是什么:1). 无论何时客户请求它能很快分配和释放资源2). 它有实时的备份,为客户提供最大的正常运行时间3). 它能够迎合客户的需求,而不需要让客户参与服务的管理接下来看看云计算的优点,主要研究在他们提供的服务基础上的不同种类的云。

2.云服务的类型软件即服务模型:这是最常见的云服务的形式。

这种服务供应者提供软件支持服务,软件是服务供应者建立的,而终端用户可以装配以适应自己的需求。

但是客户不能改变或修改软件。

在线备份服务就是一个例子。

它基本上是一个备份服务,它提供软件以帮助人们备份自己的数据。

这样,你可以使用服务而不必编码或购买软件,你只需每月或每年付费以使用这种服务项目。

平台即服务模型:它提供一个平台给客户,以满足不同目的。

比如:微软云计算操作系统提供一个平台给开发者,让他们建立、测试和主持应用程序。

这些程序可以被终端使用者使用。

终端使用者也许知道、也许不知道应用程序是通过云计算来进行的。

前面提到过,用户数据的存储空间可能会增加,也可能会缩小。

根据应用程序的要求,使用作为服务的软件,你不必建立平台。

你只需为使用服务支付象征性的费用。

基础架构即服务模型:它根据需求提供基础设施。

基础设施可以是存储服务器、应用程序和操作系统。

理工类学术英语翻译text11核电的危险

Text 11 核电的危险RISKS OF NUCLEAR POWERBernard L. Cohen, .Professor at the University of PittsburghRadiationThe principal risks associated with nuclear power arise from health effects of radiation. This radiation consists of subatomic particles traveling at or near the velocity of light---186,000 miles per second. They can penetrate deep inside the human body where they can damage biological cells and thereby initiate a cancer. If they strike sex cells, they can cause genetic diseases in progeny.辐射与核电相联系的主要危险来自辐射对健康的影响。

这种辐射包括亚原子颗粒以光速或接近光速运行——每秒186000英里。

它们可以深深穿透到身体内部,在体内它们可以损伤生物细胞,然后引发癌症。

如果它们攻击性细胞,它们可以导致子孙后代的基因疾病。

Radiation occurs naturally in our environment; a typical person is, and always has been struck by 15,000 particles of radiation every second from natural sources, and an average medical X-ray involves being struck by 100 billion. While this may seem to be very dangerous, it is not, because the probability for a particle of radiation entering a human body to cause a cancer or a genetic disease is only one chance in 30 million billion (30 quintillion).辐射在我们环境中自然地发生;通常每个人每秒钟受到来自自然源的15000个粒子的辐射,而一次普通的医疗X光检查则带有1,000亿个粒子的辐射。

学术英语理⼯(第⼆版)Unit5课⽂翻译医学研究中的欺诈:⽣物统计学家的国际调查1 19世纪80年代末,公众对科学造假的意识显著增强,当时⼀场争论登上了头版新闻,这场争论是关于⼀篇因造假⽽被调查的论⽂,该论⽂的合著者是诺贝尔奖获得者。

19世纪90年代,科学欺诈被多次披露(洛克,196)。

事实上,最近有⼈提出,欺诈现在是“许多科学学科和⼤多数国家的通病”(Fulford,1 9 8),可能会损害科学研究的可信度。

然⽽,由于科学欺诈的隐蔽性以及由此⽽来的可靠信息的缺乏,给科学欺诈的研究带来了困难。

因此,科学欺诈的特征和频率⼀般都是未知的,其对医学研究的影响也不清楚。

⽣物统计学家通常与医学研究许多分⽀的医⽣和科学家密切合作,对数据有独特的见解。

此外,他们在⽅法上有能⼒发现欺诈⾏为,并有望对结果的有效性产⽣特殊的专业兴趣。

因此,⽣物统计学家可以就医学研究中的欺诈特征提供独特⽽可靠的信息。

本研究的⽬的是通过调查国际临床⽣物统计学会(ISCB)的成员来评估医学研究中欺诈⾏为的特征。

2 ISCB是⼀个国际⽣物统计学家协会,于1988年4⽉在六⼤洲的31个国家或地区拥有4个成员。

⼤多数成员(69%)来⾃欧洲联盟(表1)。

ISCB设有⼀个欺诈问题⼩组委员会,该⼩组委员会是在对欺诈问题表⽰关注并对其作出不当回应之后成⽴的。

4⽉19⽇,⼀份为匿名回复⽽设计的问卷被邮寄给所有成员,并附上⼀封邀请参与调查的信函。

互联⽹上的ISCB主页上也打开了⼀个电⼦版本。

没有使⽤预付回执信封,也没有分发正式提醒。

答复的最后期限是7⽉19⽇。

邮件回复被发送到瑞典隆德的调查办公室。

3 调查问卷由ISCB欺诈问题⼩组委员会成员共同设计,包含3个项⽬,分为两个部分,⼀个是年龄、性别、职位、国籍等,另⼀种是关于科学欺诈的经验和观点。

在实际调查之前,调查问卷在美国和欧盟对少数ISCB⾮成员⽣物统计学家进⾏了初步测试,并根据初步研究的经验进⾏了修订。

Text 1 电脑黑客如何进入电脑这好像是一个直接的问题,但是内涵很复杂,答案绝不简单,如果随便地回答,那么黑客通过利用弱点进入目标电脑系统。

但是为了提供更多细节,我们还是从头说起。

“hacker”这个词在意义和解释上都很有争议。

有些人说hackers(开路人) 是好人,他们只是推动了知识的边界,并没造成什么伤害(至少不是故意的),而crackers (打砸者)是真正的坏蛋。

这种争论没有什么效果,如果是为了这种讨论的目的,术语“未授权的使用者”(UU)就足够用了。

这个术语包含了所有不同类型的人,从那些参与有组织犯罪行为的人到那些内部人士,他们突破了在系统中被授予的权限。

接下来我们探讨一下“进入”电脑意味着什么。

这可以指获得电脑系统储存的内容,获得系统的处理能力,或者捕获系统之间交流的信息。

每种攻击都需要不同的技巧,以不同的弱点为目标。

那么“未授权的使用者”利用的是什么?弱点存在于每个系统中,并且有两种弱点:已知的和未知的。

已知的弱点通常因为需要某些能力而存在。

比如,为了某个商业过程,你需要不同的人使用一个系统,你就有一个已知的弱点:使用者。

另一个已知弱点的例子是通过互联网交流的能力,为了具备这个能力,你要给未知和不被信任的实体开通一条路径。

未知的弱点是系统的拥有者或操作者所不了解的,可能是劣质工程的结果,或者是某些被需要的能力产生的非故意的结果。

按照定义,弱点可能被利用。

这些弱点可以是低级的密码保护,也可以是让电脑开着,让办公室的访客可以利用。

只要坐在接待员的桌前,用他的电脑获得需要的信息,就有超过一种技术被利用。

低级的密码(比如,用户名“Joe Smith”, 密码也是“Joe Smith”)也是接近电脑的丰富的来源:密码破译程序可以很容易在几分钟内确认字典中的单词、姓名,甚至常见短语。

通过用数字代替字母,使这些密码更复杂。

比如用0来代替字母O,并不会使任务更复杂。

当未获授权的使用者使用有效的用户名—密码组合,进入系统就是简单的登录了。

8How Nanotechnology Works纳米技术的工作原理There's an unprecedented multidisciplinary convergence of scientists dedicated to the study of a world so small, we can't see it -- even with a light microscope. That world is the field of nanotechnology, the realm of atoms and nanostructures. Nanotechnology i-s so new, no one is really sure what will come of it. Even so, predictions range from the ability to reproduce things like diamonds and food to the world being devoured by self-replicating nanorobots.空前的多学科收敛的科学家们致力于研究的一个很小的世界,我们不能看到它——甚至用一个光学显微镜。

这世界是原子和纳米结构的领土、领域的纳米技术。

纳米技术是很新,没有人是真的相信它会发生什么。

即便如此,预测范围从重现像钻石和向世界被吞食的自我复制指食物的能力。

In order to understand the unusual world of nanotechnology, we need to get an idea of the units of measure involved. A centimeter is one-hundredth of a meter, a millimeter is one-thousandth of a meter, and a micrometer is one-millionth of a meter, but all of these are still huge compared to the nanoscale. A nanometer (nm) is one-billionth of a meter, smaller than the wavelength of visible light and a hundred-thousandth the width of a human hair [source: Berkeley Lab].为了了解纳米技术的不寻常的世界,我们需要得到的度量单位的想法所涉及。

Text 121、随着人们对福岛核泄漏事故的担忧日益加剧,是否有可能精确计量核辐射对健康的直接和持续性影响?以下是核辐射疾病和日本面对的其他威胁背后的科学依据。

2、3月11号,日本发生了地震和海啸。

一场强大的,震级达9.0级的大地震袭击了日本的东北部,引发了波及美国西海岸的高达10米的海啸。

以下是这场灾难背后的科学依据。

3、紧随3月11号的地震和海啸而来的福岛第一大核电站不断发展的危机引起了人们对核辐射对健康的影响的担忧:核辐射的“危险“水平是多少?辐射如何影响健康?严重且长期的低剂量辐射有什么结果?4、尽管放射性水蒸气已经被释放,减小了毁坏的复合体反应堆内的压强,而且在那的三次爆炸导致更多的辐射泄露,但是由此导致的辐射水平激增并没有持续。

迄今报道的最高辐射水平是当地时间3月15号上午10点22分在3号反应堆测量的400毫西弗特的脉冲。

(西弗特是电离辐射的单位,等同于100雷姆;雷姆是X射线和伽马射线辐射的剂量单位)随着远离事故发生点,辐射水平剧烈下降。

位于西南方向大约220km的东京的辐射水平据报道只比正常水平略高一点。

5、华盛顿大学圣路易斯分校的健康物理学家和辐射安全官员Susan nghorst 说:“我们离人们应该担心的距离水平还很远。

”6、根据研究过1986年切尔诺贝利灾难的国际放射防护委员会副主席亚伯.岗萨雷斯所言,目前来自日本的关于辐射泄露水平的信息是不完善的,而且关于“可能出现最糟糕的情况”的推测是不切题的。

7、核辐射对健康的影响取决于它的水平,类型和持续时间。

放射性水平8、普通人每年暴露在0.2到0.3毫西弗特的本底辐射之下,这是宇宙射线和来自建筑材料以及环境中自然放射性物质的辐射共同作用的结果。

9、美国核能管理委员会建议,在这个背景水平之外,公众每年接触到的核辐射量应限制在1毫西弗特之内。

美国对辐射工作人员的限制是每年50毫西弗特,不过很少有工作人员接触到的核辐射量接近这个水平。

Text18 吸食大麻对身体的影响介绍大麻是人类最古老,使用最广泛的药物之一。

自有医学史记载以来,它就被以各种方式被消费,而且,目前世界上有数以亿计的人在使用它。

许多出版物对它对使用者的短期影响给出了相当一致的看法,然而,关于最终的影响是有害的,无害的,还是对人类身体功能有益有着强烈的矛盾观点。

许多旧报道有许多的问题,例如带有偏见的抽样,缺乏对照组和使用未知效能的物质。

然而最新的科学文献提出了一个清晰的,有充分记录的案列。

为了评估一些研究,必须充分考虑几个因素。

第一方面是THC的剂量,THC是大麻的主要成分。

另一方面是使用大麻的人。

此外,在评估实验研究结果时,非药物因素必须考虑进去。

尽管它们对抽烟者有很大的影响,但是这些观点并不会被详细说明或讨论。

我们的研究可以分成两类:(a)开始使用,和(b)当使用者进入这种状态。

也可以根据对人类身体作用的程度来划分。

为了研究它们的物理效应而不是它们是如何产生的,本文提出了一个基于大麻效应的持续时间和强度的第三种分类方法。

因此,选择短期和长期的慢性影响来划分。

短期影响最一致的生理信号是脉搏的增加。

例如吸食14毫克剂量的THC立即就能导致高于平均水平的脉搏率。

伯克和赫恩顿发现的另一个症状是眼睛发红。

其他研究者支持这些发现,但是没有证据表明瞳孔会膨胀。

对呼吸率,肺活量或者基础代谢率的影响没有或很少被注意到。

其他的被频繁报道的一些症状是口干舌燥和尿频增加。

短期的生化效应也是一个重要的考虑因素。

在“大麻中毒”期间,增加了饥饿感尤其是对甜食的渴望的报道,让人们把注意力放到了血糖可能的改变上。

伯克的许多研究对象都经历了食欲刺激和普遍饥饿。

神经学实验在大麻中毒期间还没有发现主要异常。

肌肉强度和简单运动任务的表现确实受到了影响。

大麻吸食者经常报告说,听觉敏感性,视觉敏锐性和对音乐的鉴赏能力都增加了。

伯克将实验对象报告的短期影响分成两组:主要症状是恶心,呕吐和头晕;较不持久的症状是头痛,疲惫,感到虚弱,冒冷汗。

学术英语(理工)课后英译汉练习答案Text 11有些人声称黑客是那些扩宽知识界限而不造成危害的好人(或即使造成危害,但并非故意而为),而“破碎者”才是真正的坏人。

2这可以指获取计算机系统的存储内容,获得一个系统的处理能力,或捕获系统之间正在交流的信息。

3那些系统开发者或操作者所忽视的不为人知的漏洞很可能是由于糟糕的设计造成的,也可能是为了让系统具备一些必要的功能而导致计划外的结果。

4另一种是预先设定好程序对特定易受攻击对象进行攻击,然而,这种攻击是以鸟枪式的方式发出的,没有任何具体目标,目的是攻击到尽可能多的潜在目标。

5另外,考虑安装一个硬件防火墙并将从互联网中流入和流出的数据限定在仅有的几个你真正需要的端口,如电子邮件和网站流量。

Text 21看似无害的编程错误可以被利用,导致电脑被侵入并为电脑蠕虫和病毒的繁衍提供温床。

2当一个软件漏洞被发现,黑客可以将漏洞变成一个侵入点,从而造成极大的破坏,在这之前,往往需要争分夺秒地利用正确的软件补丁来防止破坏的发生。

3最简单的钓鱼骗局试图利用迅速致富的伎俩诱使诈骗目标寄钱。

但网络骗子们也变得越来越狡猾,最近的陷阱是通过发送客户服务的电子邮件让用户进入假银行或商业网站,并在那里请他们“重新输入”他们的账户信息。

4间谍软件与垃圾邮件和钓鱼网络一起,构成了三个令人生厌的互联网害虫。

尽管有些程序可以通过入侵软件漏洞从而进入电脑,但这些有害而秘密的程序通常会随着其他通常是免费的应用软件侵入到计算机系统中。

5尽管因特网已经彻底改变了全球通讯,但是对于那些意图为了罪恶目的而利用网络力量的人和那些负责阻止这些网络犯罪的人来说,他们之间的较量才刚刚开始。

Text 51.最近在《纽约时报》上刊登的一篇文章谈到了一种新计算机软件,该软件在瞬间就能通过数以千计的法律文件筛选并寻找到那些可诉讼的条款,这为律师们节省了在阅读文件上所花费的数百小时。

2.他们主要靠耕种来养活自己,然后再多种一些用以物品交易或卖一些盈余3.从事农业和畜牧业者的绝对数量大约在1910年时达到顶峰(约有1,100—1,200万),在此之后人数便急剧下降4.这个故事总结了美国几个世纪以来的工作经历,从失业工人的层面上讲是悲剧,但从全国劳动力的层面上讲是件好事。

TEXT13在国内的牛奶中发现了核辐射,应该对此感到惊讶吗?1、我很震惊,由于福岛核事故,美国官方对核辐射水平的轻描淡写。

我们不应该因为在我们的牛奶和食品供应中发现辐射而感到惊讶,比起日本,我们的那些东西辐射浓度很低。

2、官方想再一次淡化一切,为了不让民众感到恐慌,因为我们正在被各种有害的事物影响,比如,美国的饮水加氟法,化学杀虫剂,非必须得强制性接种,激素的使用和我们的家禽食用的合成饲料以及转基因农产品。

不,没有什么是重要的!我们对疾病,肥胖症以及营养不良的民众中的反常行为数量的增加感到困惑。

3、官方是健忘的,剩下我们看到它正在来临_根据彭博社奇普曼金和斯蒂芬妮阿穆尔所言,“政府和联邦官员说,在加利福尼亚和华盛顿的牛奶中发现了水平远低于置人于危险当中的辐射水平。

”4、如果没有这样的问题并且辐射水平远低于公共卫生问题的水平,那为什么环境保护局和食品药品监督管理局增加牛奶,雨水,饮用水的监控?5、这些机构告诉我们,在3月25号华盛顿的斯波坎市的一杯牛奶样本中发现了具有放射性的碘131,比FDA设定的风险水平低5000倍。

6、不甘示弱的是,3月28号,在加利福尼亚的一杯牛奶样本中也发现了碘131,根据公共卫生部的规定,读数也是低于“风险水平”。

不是自然发生,而是由于核灾难产生的辐射增加难道不应该引起注意吗?7、来自马萨诸塞州斯普林菲尔德的社会责任医师协会主任艾拉埃尔分德在接受电话采访时表示,虽然任何辐射都会“增加患癌风险”,但是。

斯波坎市报道中的辐射水平对健康造成非常非常小的结果,I r a可能正在给他的孩子穿防射服!这些日子,作为一个官员,不得不明目张胆的说谎,并且仍然能够面对镜子中的自己,这一定很艰难。

他说,我更担心日本人民的处境。

没有一个头脑正常的人想在接下来的80年到100年再次到访日本,这应该可以表明那的情况多么可怕。

8、与此同时,来自加州牛奶指导委员会的詹妮弗吉安不罗尼表示,根据政府调查,来自最大的牛奶产地,加利福尼亚州的牛奶是安全的。

学术英语-理⼯-lecture11-原⽂学术英语-理⼯-lecture11-原⽂Lecture 11 Four lessons about climate crisisI’m really scared. I don’t think we’re gonna make it. Probably by now most of you have seen Al Gore’s amazing talk. Shortly after I saw that, we had some friends over for dinner with the family. The conversation turned to global warming, and everybody agreed, there’s a real problem. We’ve got a climate crisis. So, we went around the table to talk about what we should do. The conversation came to my 15-year-old daughter, Mary. She said, “I agree with everything that’s been said. I’m scared and I’m angry.” And then she turned to me and said, “Dad, your generation created this problem, you’d better fix it.”Wow. All the conversation stopped. All the eyes turned to me. (Laughter) I didn’t know what to say. Kleiner’s second law is,“There is a time when panic is the appropriate response.” (Laughter) And we’ve reached that time. We cannot afford to underest imate this problem. If we face irreversible and catastrophic consequences, we must act, and we must act decisively. I’ve got to tell you, for me, everything changed that evening.And so, my partners and I, we set off on this mission to learn more, to try to do much more. So, we mobilized. We got on airplanes. We went to Brazil. We went to China and to India, to Bentonville, Arkansas, and to Washington, D.C. and to Sacramento. And so, what I’d like to do now is to tell you about what we’ve learned in thosejourneys. Because the more we learned, the more concerned we grew. You know, my partners at Kleiner and I were compulsive networkers, and so when we see a big problem or an opportunity like avian flu or personalized medicine, we just get together the smartest people we know. For this climate crisis, we assembled a network, really, of superstars, from policy activists to scientists and entrepreneurs and business leaders. Fifty or so of them. And so, I want to tell you about what we’ve learned in doing that and four lessons I’ve learned in the last year.The first lesson is that companies are really powerful, and that matters a lot. This is a story about how Wal-Mart went green, and what that means. Two years ago, the CEO, Lee Scott, believed that green is the next big thing, and so Wal-Mart made going green a top priority. They committed that they’re gonna take their existing stores and reduce their energy consumption by 20 percent, and their new stores by 30 percent, and do all that in seven years. The three biggest uses of energy in a store are heating and air conditioning, then lighting, and then refrigeration. So, look what they did. They painted the roofs of all their stores white. They put smart skylights through their stores so they could harvest the daylight and reduce the lighting demands. And third, they put the refrigerated goods behind closed doors with LED lighting. I mean, why would you try to refrigerate awhole store? These are really simple, smart solutions based on existing technology.Why does Wal-Mart matter? Well, it’s massive. They’re the largest private employer in America. They’re the largest private user of electricity. They have the second-largest vehicle fleet on the road. And they have one of the world’s most amazing supply chains, 60,000 suppliers. If Wal-Mart were a country, it would be the sixth-largest trading partner with China. And maybe most important, they have a big effect on other companies.When Wal-Mart declares it’s gonna go green and be profitable, it has a powerful impact on other great institutions. So, I tell you this: When Wal-Mart achieves 20 percent energy reductions, that’s gonna be a very big deal. But I’m afraid it’s not enough. We need Wal-Mart and every other company to do the same.The second thing that we learned is that individuals matter, and they matter enormously. I’ve got another Wal-Mart story for you, OK? Wal-Mart has over 125 million U.S. customers. That’s a third of the U.S. population. Sixty-five million compact fluorescent light bulbs were sold last year.And Wal-Mart has committed they’re gonna sell another 100 million light bulbs in the coming year. But it’s not easy. Consumers don’t really like these light bulbs. The light’s kind of funny, theywon’t dim, takes a while for them to start up. But the p ay-off is really enormous. A hundred million compact fluorescent light bulb means that we’ll save 600 million dollars in energy bills, and 20 million tons of CO2 every year, year in and year out. It does seem really hard to get consumers to do the right thing. It is stupid that we use two tons of steel, glass, and plastic to haul our sorry selves to the shopping mall. It’s stupid that we put water in plastic bottles in Fiji and ship it here. (Laughter) It’s hard to change consumer behavior, because consumers don’t know how much this stuff costs. Do you know? Do you know how much CO2 you generated to drive here or fly here? I don’t know, and I should. Those of us who care about all this would act better if we knew what the real costs were. But as long as we pretend that CO2 is free, as long as these uses are nearly invisible, how can we expect change? I’m really afraid, because I think the kinds of changes we can reasonably expect from individuals are gonna be clearly not enough.The third lesson we learned is that policy matters. It really matters. In fact, policy is paramount. I’ve got a behind-the-scenes story for you about that green tech network I described. At the end of our first meeting, we got together to talk about what the action items would be, how we’d follow up. And Bob Epstein raised a hand. Hestood up. Y ou know, Bob’s that Berkeley techie type who started Sybase. Well, Bob said the most important thing we could do right now is to make it clear in Sacramento, California that we need a market-base d system of mandates that’s gonna cap and reduce greenhouse gases in California. It’s necessary and, just as important; it’s good for the California economy.So, eight of us went to Sacramento in August and we met with the seven undecided legislators and we lobbied for AB32. Y ou know what? Six of those seven voted yes in favor of the bill, so it passed, and it passed by a vote of 47 to 32. (Applause) Please don’t. Thank you. I think it’s the most important legislation of 2006. Why? Because California was the first state in this country to mandate 25 percent reduction of greenhouse gases by 2020. And the result of that is, we’re gonna generate83,000 new jobs, 4 billion dollars a year in annual income, and reduce the CO2 emissions by 174 million tons a year. California’s only 7 percent of U.S. CO2 emissions. It’s only a percent and a half of the country’s CO2 emissions. It’s a great start, but I’ve got to tell you—where I started—I’m really afraid. In fact, I’m certain California’s not enough.Here’s a story a bout national policy that we could all learn from. You know Tom Friedman says, “If you don’t go, you don’t know?” Well, we went to Brazil to meet Dr. Hussain Goldemberg. He’s thefather of the ethanol revolution. He told us that Brazil’s government mandated that every gasoline station in the country would carry ethanol. And they mandated that their new vehicles would beflex-fuel compatible, right? They’d run ethanol or ordinary gasoline. And so, here’s what’s happened in Brazil. They now have 29,000 ethanol pumps—this versus 700 in the U.S., and a paltry two in California—and in three years their new car fleet has gone from 4 percent to 85 percent flex-fuel. Compare that to the U.S., 5 percent are flex-fuel. And you know what? Most consumers who have themd on’t even know it. So, what’s happened in Brazil is, they’ve replaced40 percent of the gasoline consumed by their automotive fleet with ethanol. That’s 59 billion dollars since 1975 that they didn’t ship to the Middle East. It’s created a million jobs ins ide that country, and it’s saved 32 million tons of CO2. It’s really substantial. That’s 10 percent of the CO2 emissions across their entire country. But Brazil’s only 1.3 percent of the world’s CO2 emission. So, Brazil’s ethanol miracle I’m really afraid is not enough. In fact, I’m afraid all of the best policies we have are not gonna be enough.The fourth and final lesson we’ve learned is about the potential of radical innovation. So, I want to tell you about a tragic problem and a breakthrough technology. Every year a million and a half people die of a completely preventable disease. That’s malaria. Sixthousand people a day. All for want of two dollars worth of medications that we can buy at the corner drugstore. Well, two dollars, two dollars is too much for Africa. So, a team of Berkeley researchers with 15 million dollars from the Gates Foundation is engineering, designing a radical new way to make the key ingredient, called artemisinin, and they’re gonna make that drug 10 times cheaper. And in doing s o, they’ll save a million lives—at least a million lives, a year. A million lives. Their breakthrough technology is synthetic biology. This leverages millions of years of evolution by redesigning bugs to make really useful products. Now, what you do is, you get inside the microbe, you change its metabolic pathways, and you end up with a living chemical factory.Now, you may ask, John, what has this got to go with green and with climate crisis? Well, I’ll tell you a lot. They’ve now formed a company called Amyris, and this technology that they’re using can be used to make better biofuels. Don’t let me skip over that. Better biofuels are a really big deal. That means we can precisely engineer the molecules in the fuel chain and optimize them along the way. So, if all goes well, they’re gonna have designer bugs in warm vats that are eating and digesting sugars to excrete better biofuels. I guess that’s better living through bugs. Alan Kay is famous for saying the best way to predict the future is to invent it. And, of course, atKleiner we, kind of, apologize and say the second best way is to finance it. And that’s why we’re investing 200 million dollars in a wide range of really disruptive new technologies for innovation in green technologies. And we’re encoura ging others to do it as well. We’re talking a lot about this.In 2005, there were 600 million dollars invested in new technologies of the sort you see here. It doubled in 2006 to 1.2 billion dollars. But I’m really afraid we need much, much more. Forrefer ence, fact one: Exxon’s revenues in 2005 were a billion dollars a day. Do you know, they only invested 0.2 percent of revenues in R&D? Second fact: the President’s new budget for renewable energy is barely a billion dollars in total, less thanone day of E xxon’s revenues. Third fact: I bet you didn’t know that there’s enough energy in hot rocks under the country to supply America’s energy needs for the next thousand years. And the Federal budget calls for a measly 20 million dollars of R&D in geothermal energy. It is almost criminal that we are not investing more in energy research in this country.And I am really afraid that it’s absolutely not enough.So, in a year’s worth of learning we found a bunch of surprises. Who would have thought that a mass retailer could make money by going green? Who would have thought that a database entrepreneur could transform California with legislation? Who would havethought that the ethanol biofuel miracle would come from a developing country in South America? And who would have thought that scientists trying to cure malaria could come up with breakthroughs in biofuels? And who would have thought that all that is not enough? Not enough to stabilize the climate. Not enough to keep the ice in Greenland from crashing into the ocean. The scientists tell us—and they’re only guessing—that we’ve got to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by one half, and do it as fast as possible. Now, we may have the political will to do this in the U.S., but I’ve got to tell you, we’ve got only one atmosphere, and so somehow we’re gonna have to find the political will to do this all around the world.Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you wha t. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Well, I’ll tell you what. Green technologies—going green—is bigger than the Internet. It could be the biggest economic opportunity of the 21st century. Moreover, if we succeed it’s gonna be the most important transformation for life on the planet since, as Bill Joy says, we went from methane to oxygen in the atmosphere. Now, here’s the hardquestion, if the trajectory of all the world’s companies and individuals and policies and innovation is not gonna to be enough, what are we gonna do? I don’t know. Everyone here cares about changing the world and has made a difference in that one way or another.So, our call to action—my call to you—is for you to make going green your next big thing, your gig. What can you do? You can personally get carbon neutral. Go to /doc/5faff8aaa36925c52cc58bd63186bceb19e8edb6.html or /doc/5faff8aaa36925c52cc58bd63186bceb19e8edb6.html and buy carbon credits. You could join other leaders in mandating, lobbying for mandated cap and trade in U.S. greenhouse gas reductions. There’s six bills right now in Congress. Le t’s get one of them passed.And the most important thing you can do, I think, is to use your personal power and your Rolodex to lead your business, your institution, in going green. Do it like Wal-Mart, get it to go green for its customers and its suppliers and for itself. Really think outside the box. Can you imagine what it would be like if Amazon or eBay or Google or Microsoft or Apple really went green and you caused that to happen? It could be bigger than Wal-Mart. I can’t wait to see what we TEDsters do about this crisis. And I really, really hope that we multiply all of our energy, all of our talent, and all of our influence to solve this problem. Because if we do, I can look forward to theconversation I’m gonna have with my daughter in 20 years.。
