⼩编为⼤家提供2019年考研英语⼀翻译真题及答案解析,⼀起看看吧! 2019考研英语⼀翻译真题 It wasn’t until after my retirement that I had the time to read scientific papers in medical journals with anything like close attention. Until then, I had, like most doctors, read the authors’ conclusions and assumed that they bore some necessary relation to what had gone before. I had also naively assumed that the editors had done their job and checked the intellectual coherence and probity of the contents of their journals. It was only after I started to write a weekly column about the medical journals, and began to read scientific papers from beginning to end, that I realized just how bad — inaccurate, misleading, sloppy, illogical — much of the medical literature, even in the best journals, frequently was. My discovery pleased and reassured me in a way: for it showed me that, even in advancing age, I was still capable of being surprised. I came to recognize various signs of a bad paper: the kind of paper that purports to show that people who eat more than one kilo of broccoli a week were 1.17 times more likely than those who eat less to suffer late in life from pernicious anaemia.46) There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals which, when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press, generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms. Why is so much bad science published? A recent paper, titled ‘The Natural Selection of Bad Science’, published on the Royal Society’s open science website, attempts to answer this intriguing and important question. According to the authors, the problem is not merely that people do bad science, as they have always done, but that our current system of career advancement positively encourages it. They quote ananonymous researcher who said pithily: ‘Poor methods get results.’ What is important is not truth, let alone importance, but publication, which has become almost an end in itself. There has been a kind of inflationary process at work: 47) nowadays anyone applying for a research post has to have published twice the number of papers that would have been required for the same post only 10 years ago. Never mind the quality, then, count the number. It is at least an objective measure. In addition to the pressure to publish, there is a preference in journals for positive rather than negative results. To prove that factor a has no effect whatever on outcome b may be important in the sense that it refutes a hypothesis, but it is not half so captivating as that factor a has some marginally positive statistical association with outcome b. It may be an elementary principle of statistics that association is not causation, but in practice everyone forgets it. The easiest way to generate positive associations is to do bad science, for example by trawling through a whole lot of data without a prior hypothesis. For example, if you took 100 dietary factors and tried to associate them with flat feet, you would find some of them that were associated with that condition, associations so strong that at first sight they would appear not to have arisen by chance. Once it has been shown that the consumption of, shall we say, red cabbage is associated with flat feet, one of two things can happen: someone will try to reproduce the result, or no one will, in which case it will enter scientific mythology. The penalties for having published results which are not reproducible, and prove before long to be misleading, usually do not cancel out the prestige of having published them in the first place: and therefore it is better, from the career point of view, to publish junk than to publish nothing at all. A long list of publications, all of them valueless, is always impressive. 48)Attempts have been made to (control this inflation命题⼈改编为curb this kind tendency),(for example by trying, when it comes to career advancement这部分被出题⼈删除), to incorporate some measure of quality as well as quantity into the assessment of an applicant’s published papers. This is the famed citation index, that is to say the number of times a paper has been quoted elsewhere in the scientific literature, the assumption being that an important paper will be cited more often than one of small account. 49) This would be reasonable enough if it were not for the fact that scientists can easily arrange to cite themselves in their future publications, or get associates to do so for them in return for similar favors. Boiling down an individual’s output to simple, objective metrics, such as number of publications or journal impacts, entails considerable savings in time, energy and ambiguity. Unfortunately, the long-term costs of using simple quantitative metrics to assess researcher merit are likely to be quite great. 50) If we are serious about ensuring that our science is both meaningful and reproducible, we must ensure that our institutions incentivize that kind of science. In other words, what we need is more emphasis on personal contact and even nepotism in the way careers are advanced: but tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice… 46. There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals which, when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press, generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms. 2019考研英语⼀翻译答案解析 【解析】 1. 本句主干为There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals(在医学杂志上有很多这样的⽆稽之谈) 2. which引导定语从句,修饰this kind of nonsense,which指代this kind of nonsense,在定语从句中做主语 (1) 则定语从句为“这些⽆稽之谈引起健康恐慌和短暂的饮⻝狂热” (2) when引导状语从句,可以理解为条件,从句省略this kind of nonsense is,则为“如果⼲播公司和⾮专业媒体报道这些⽆稽之谈” 【参考译⽂】 在医学杂志上有很多这样的⽆稽之谈,如果⼲播公司和⾮专业媒体报道这些⽆稽之谈,那么就会引起健康恐慌和短暂的饮⻝狂热。

Comprehension(30POINTS,80MINUTES)There are FOUR passages in this section.Read each passage and answer the questions given at the end of each passage.Please write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET!Passage IPeople have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed.It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not,or why one is cooperative and another is competitive.Social scientists are,of course,extremely interested in these types of questions.They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors.There are no clear answers yet,but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed.As one might expect,the two approaches are very different from one another,and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory.The controversy is often referred to as "nature/nurture".Those who support the"nature"side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors.That our environment has little,if anything,to do with our abilities, characteristics,and behavior is central to this theory.Taken to an extreme,this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts.Proponents of the"nurture"theory,or,as they are often called,behaviorists,claimed that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act.A behaviorist,B.F.Skinner,sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings.The behaviorists'view of the human being is quite mechanistic;they maintain that,like machines,humans respond to environmental stimuli as the basis of their behavior.Either of these theories cannot yet fully explain human behavior.In fact,it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes.That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain. Answer the following questions by making the best choice.Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET(5*1=5points).1.Which one of the following statements would supporters of the"nature"theory agree with?A.A person's instincts have little effect on his action.B.Environment is important in determining a person's behavior and personality.C.Biological reasons have a strong influence on how we act.D.The behaviorists'view correctly explains how we act.2.Which one of the following statements would proponents of the"nurture"theory agree with?A.A person's character is greatly influenced by his environment.B.Behaviorist theory is not correct.C.Biologically based instincts are important in how we act.D.Environment has little to do with behavior.3.B.F.Skinner____________________.A.supports the nature theoryB.believes in the importance of genes in determining personalityC.thinks the environment plays an important role in determining characterD.believes instincts govern behavior4.Concerning the nature/nurture controversy,the writer of this article__________.A.supports the nature theoryB.supports the nurture theoryC.believes both are completely wrongD.thinks that the correct explanation of human behavior will take ideas from both theories5.In the United States,Black people often score below White people on intelligence tests.With this in mind,which one of the following statements is not true?A.Nature proponents would say that Whites are genetically superior to Blacks.B.Supporters of the nature theory would say that Whites score well because they have a superior environment.C.Behaviorists would say that Black often lack the educational and environmental advantages that Whites enjoy.D.Nurture proponents would disagree that Blacks are biologically inferior to Whites.Passage IIHarmful publicationsLack of culture,or rather an excess of the wrong sort of culture,is often considered to be synonymous with disadvantages.Most commonly associated with low cultural standards are low levels of reading and writing.One way of compensating such disadvantaged young people is thought to be to provide them with the culture they lack:in particular, high quality reading material.Comic tragedy?Whereas forty to fifty percent of young people aged sixteen to twenty rarely read a book,the majority of young people appear to read comics.In1991sales of Viz,a UK comic,exceeded one million copies per issue,making it the fourth best selling periodical in Britain.The reading of comics,however,is not restricted to young people:by1992it was estimated that two out of three men aged eighteen to fifty-three read Viz.The reading of comics was traditionally regarded by the educational establishment with considerable suspicion. Whereas the received arts were always assumed to exert an improving or civilizing influence,comics were thought to"rob children's brain",to lower educational standards and to threaten morality.They were,and are,assumed to be an inferior cultural form,their readers assumed to come from the lower social classes,to be low educational attainers and to be easily led astray.Over the past decade,perceptions of comics have shifted.Since the1970s,the comic format has been commonly used to represent the interests of various disenfranchised groups—community groups,the unemployed,welfare recipients—who became more conscious of a climate conditioned by other contemporary movements such as civil rights,consumerism,self-help and de-institutionalization.As cultural signifiers,comics have become the subject matter of academic courses in cultural and media studies.Indeed,young people's cultural activities,grounded in the commercial rather than the subsidized sector,are beginning to merit the attention of the arts establishment.Since the mid-1980s the comics market itself has boomed:the number of specialist shops and attendances at comics conventions has increased six-fold;the number of publishers and mainstream bookshops stocking comics has expanded; collecting comics was reported to be the fastest growing hobby,and in the process,an adult readership has effectively "come out".A survey carried out for Crisis,a fortnightly comic,clearly contradicted the stereotypical image of a comics reader by revealing that two-thirds of its readers were aged sixteen to twenty-four,with the remaining third over twenty-five. Furthermore,the comic's readers were highly educated:over half were studying full-or part-time;nearly three quarters read a quality daily.The comic's most popular stories focused on serious issues to do with the Third World and Northern Ireland.Comics as educationThe tone of educational comics has also changed.Twenty years ago it would have been considered immoral to produce advisorv comics for prisoners,offering health advice for potentially illegal practices,not least because they would have appeared to condone the practices described.Yet comics are now considered to be the most effective medium for such advice,not least because they secure the interest of their target readership.Certain British educationists,such as Margaret Meek,now advocate comics as educationally beneficial.This is because they encourage children and young people to read and contribute positively to the development of their fantasy play and to their acquisition of confidence and assurance.Yet,150years since they were first published,comics remain subject to the old prejudices,which maintain a particularly firm hold in schools.Research is currently under way,in part prompted by curiosity as to why comics are still regarded with such distain by the teaching profession.It is suspected that when comics are used in the classroom they are primarily given to children with learning difficulties,those learning English as a second language and those with behavioral problem;conversely,they are not given to children who have achieved higher educational standards.The research aims to establish to what extent comics are used in statutory and non-statutory education,what they are used for and what their potential might be.The resulting report focuses on the use of comics for and by disenfranchised young people, particularly those who may be denied access to the whole statutory curriculum and whose special educational needs are not adequately met.Answer the following questions by making the best choice.Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET(5*1=5points).6.How many examples of an increase in the comic market are given?A.3B.4C.5D.67.A survey of readers conducted for one of the publication showed thatA.all readers of comics are at least16years old.B.most readers in the survey were highly educated.C.most readers of comics also read quality newspapers.D.readers of the most popular comics also read quality newspapers.8.All of the following statements are true EXCEPT:ics have been proved to be the most effective way of giving advice to prisoners.B.Schools disagree with some educationists that comics are educationally beneficial.C.Research is being done to explore the potential use of comics in school education.D.The underlined word"readership"in paragraph5most probably refers to the number of readers.9.In paragraph7,by saying"...not least because they would have appeared to condone the practices described.",the author meansA."...not at all because..."B."...not in the least because..."C."...not only because..."D."...quite importantly because..."10.Broadly speaking,the authorA.regards comics with disdain.B.is not sure about the educational value of comics.C.feels that comics have educational value.D.believes that comics will attract people of increasingly old age.Passage IIIThe new BBC adaptation of Dickens'Little Dorrit has been hailed as the perfect accompaniment to credit-crunch Britain.Dickens was good at asking difficult questions,and even better at avoiding simple answers.Near the start of Dombey and Son,the small and sharp-eyed Paul Dombey asks"Papa!what's money?",and is told that it is"gold and silver,and copper,Guineas,shillings,half-pence".For his father,a prosperous businessman,money represents something else:"Circulating-medium,currency...paper, bullion,rates of exchange,value of precious metals in the market".For Dickens himself,though,money meant far more than the power to buy and sell.Money brought people together and split them apart;it turned ordinary people into models of generosity or monsters of greed;it kept the world moving and was forever threatening to make it spin out of control.Dickens's novels depict a world in which everything has a price,like the coals that Scrooge refuses to burn, cherishing them like diamonds.But as Scrooge's hard-heartedness reveals,the pursuit of such things also has a human cost.The new BBC adaptation of Dickens's Little Dorrit has been hailed as the perfect accompaniment to credit-crunch Britain,but it is not the only novel in which we find Dickens speaking to us,or even speaking for us,in these uncertain financial times.In all their painful,joyful,irrepressible life,his novels offer us glimpses of a world we think we have lost -a period of swirling fog and flickering gaslamps.But the closer we get to this world,the more we start to recognise:the scramble for credit,financial scandal,panic. More recent novelists have attempted to write about the workings of international finance.Saul Bellow's description of market speculation in Seize the Day or Don DeLillo's account of a financial meltdown seen through the eyes of a currency trader in Cosmopolis are compelling in their own way.But there are good reasons why it is Dickens to whom we should now return.The centre around which the Victorian age revolved and Dickens's combination of ambition and anxiety make him unmistakably our contemporary.And not only can we find parallels in his novels with the current crisis,we can also learn from them how to survive and triumph over it.One of the saddest scenes in Little Dorrit comes near the beginning of the novel,as we are introduced to William Dorrit,the longest-serving resident of the Marshalsea Prison.Imprisoned more than20years ago for debt,he has been reduced to accepting pitiful handouts from"admirers"with names like"Snooks","Old Gooseberry"and"the Dogs-meat Man".It is a scene that Dickens wrote from the heart-and from memory.His own father had been imprisoned in theMarshalsea when Charles was still a boy,and even if John Dickens seems to have been serenely unaffected by the experience,his son never came to terms with the shame he felt."I really believed at the time",he wrote later,"that they had broken my heart."The shame spreads through his writings like a blush,although he became adept at making a kind of sad comedy out of it,as when he recalled his father's wise advice to live within his means("if a man had twenty pounds a year,and spent nineteen pounds nineteen shillings and sixpence,he would be happy;but that a shilling spent the other way would make him wretched')and put it into the mouth of David Copperfield's Mr Micawber.As Dickens became more successful as a writer he followed the advice with scrupulous care.At his death,he left £93,000,comfortably making him a millionaire in today's money,but he managed his finances well enough to have accumulated decent reserves of cash while still being known for his generosity.If anything,he was thought to be a soft touch,which is doubtless what made him a target for begging-letter writers. One affected to be a travelling pedlar whose trade was being disrupted by the loss of his horse,and"if I would have the goodness to leave him out a donkey,he would call for the animal before breakfast".Perhaps they had been led to expect as much from Dickens's fiction,because his generosity was not only limited to real people.Characters such as Nicholas Nickleby or Oliver Twist are also showered with gifts at the end of their stories, although only if they prove to be deserving cases.In a world full of gloomy voices,such as Thomas Carlyle's warning that capitalism was destroying old social bonds based on trust,Dickens's novels quietly work to restore a link between money and morality.As in the fairy-tales he loved, his heroes had to demonstrate their true worth in order to be rewarded with a pot of gold.Even if this smacks of a wish-fulfilment fantasy,Dickens's readers had good reason to be thankful to him.After all, the real financial world was far harder to control,and just as likely to punish the good as the wicked.Even in Little Dorrit,that great warning-cry about the financial mess that people can get themselves into,Dickens offers a cheering alternative to the credit-crunch,because another word that binds the novel together is'credit'.Answer the following questions by making the best choice.Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET(8*1=8points).11.The new BBC adaptation of Dickens's Little Dorrit is seen as_______.A.a production to accompany the financial timeB.a work to increase the credit rating of Charles DickensC.the right product at the right timeD.Britain's crunch of credit in new forms12.More recent novelists were mentioned by the author to show_______.A.similar financial problemsB.the scramble for creditC.credit-crunch BritainD.a financial meltdown13.By saying that Dickens is our contemporary,the author seems to imply that_______.A.his novels have parallels in the modern timesB.Dickens also lived through credit crunchC.the current crisis has parallels in historyD.we are,like him,also a mixture of great desires and worries14.The word"serenely"probably means________.A.severelyB.calmlyC.eerilyD.sedentarily15.How did his father's experience affected Charles Dickens?A.The shame penetrated his writings.B.He never came to terms with the creditors.C.The humiliation had a lasting effect on him.D.He had a heart attack because of the shame.16.The word"scrupulous"probably means_______.A.scrutinizedB.industriousC.incredulousD.careful17.By mentioning"credit"at the end of the article,the author seems to imply that________.A.credit is unavoidable in modern timesB.credit is the not the root of all evilC.modern people should also emphasize honour.D.people should learn to trust each other18.What is the significance of Dickens'novels in modern times?A.They focus on money and beliefs of right and wrong.B.They also centered around uncertain financial times.C.They demonstrated the true worth of credit.D.They share the same issue of"credit".Passage IVIn this age of chips,we put radios in watchcases and tap telephone with minute electronic packages.Such miniaturization might lead us to the false belief that absolute size is irrelevant to the operation of complex machinery. But nature does not miniaturize neurons(or other cells for that matter).The range of cell size among organisms is incomparably smaller than the range in body size.Small animals simply have far fewer cells than large animals.The human brain contains several billion neurons;an ant is constrained by its small size to have many hundreds of times fewer neurons.There is no established relationship between brain size and intelligence among humans.But this observation cannot be extended to differences between species and certainly not to ranges of sizes separating ants and humans.An efficient computer needs billions of circuits and an ant simply cannot contain enough of them because the relative constancy of cell size requires that small brains contain few neurons.Thus,our large body size served as a prerequisite for self-conscious intelligence.We can make a stronger argument and claim that humans have to be just about the size they are in order to function as they do.In an amusing and provocative article,F.W.Went explored the impossibility of human life,as we know it,at ant dimensions.Since weight increases so much faster than surface area as an object gets larger,small animals have very high ratios of surface to volume:they live in a world dominated by surface forces that affect us scarcely at all.An ant-sized man might put on some clothing,but forces of surface adhesion would preclude its removal.The lower limit of drop size would make showering impossible;each drop would hit with the force of a large boulder.If our little man managed to get wet and tried to dry off with a towel,he would be stuck to it for life.He could pour no liquid,light no fire(since a stable flame must be several millimeters in length).He might hammer gold leaf thin enough to construct a book for his size;but surface adhesion would prevent the turning of pages.Our skills and behavior are finely attuned to our size.We could not be twice as tall as we are,for the kinetic energy of a fall would then be16to32times as great,and our sheer weight(increased eightfold)would be more than our legs could support.Human giants of eight to nine feet have either died young or been crippled early by failure of joints and bones.At half our size,we could not wield a club with sufficient force to hunt large animals(for kinetic energy would decrease16to32-fold);we could not impart sufficient momentum to spears and arrows;we could not cut or split woodwith primitive tools or mine minerals with picks and chisels.Since these were essential activities in our historical development,we must conclude that the path of our evolution could only have been followed by a creature very close to our size.I do not argue that we inhabit the best of all possible worlds,only that our size has limited our activities and,to a great extent,shaped our evolution.Answer the following questions by making the best choice.Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET(5*1=5points).19.Which inference can you draw from the passage?A.People may gain a false understanding that small animals have roughly the same number of neurons as large animals, only smaller.B.The cells of small animals are proportionally smaller than those of large animals.C.In order to be more intelligent,human beings have to be still taller.D.The bigger the brain size,the more intelligent man is.20.The author tells about F.W.Went's article in order toA.clarify why man cannot live like an ant.B.explain why an ant cannot live like a human being.C.explore the possibility of human life at ant dimensions.D.elaborate why an ant-sized man is not able to live a human life.21.What does the word"preclude"in paragraph4mean?A.introduceB.preventC.includeD.precede22.According to the author,if a man of six feet weighs80kilograms,then a man twelve feet tall would weighA.90kilogramsB.640kilogramsC.720kilogramsD.1280kilograms23.Which of the following choices is NOT true?A.The cell size of small animals lacks variation.B.Variation of brain size is significant to intelligence between species.C.Small animals are overwhelmed by forces of surface adhesion like human beings.D.In order to survive human life,we need to be as tall as we are.•Paraphrase the following sentences which are highlighted in Passage IV on your answer sheet.(7points)24.The range of cell size among organisms is incomparably smaller than the range in body size.(3points)25.Small animals have very high ratios of surface to volume.(2points)。

首都师范大学翻译硕士考研真题及解析
2015年首都师范大学翻译硕士考研真题先说说基础英语第一题改错,十道,然后是二十个单选,题目不是很难,但有个别单词比较难,不认识,然后就是阅读理解,不难,最后一篇大作文40分,题目是Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind再说说翻译,十道英译汉特色词,二十道汉译英特色词,内容有legal code,hypertext,The Greater East AsiaCo-Prosperity Sphere,mortgage loan,securedloan,historical materialism,buddhist scriptures等,汉译英有,八国联军,半封建社会,春运,大病统筹,大办宴席,澳门特别行政区基本法,文化主旋律,文化产业。
最后是两个英译汉,两个汉译英。
最后说百科知识,十五个单选,有《天龙八部》名字出自佛教,道教还是儒家思想,“执子之手,与子偕老”出自什么,司空见惯,中的司空是指,杭州的景点有,白金汉宫是哪个国家的,自由女神像是哪个国家送给美国的,《1984》是谁的作品,莫扎特生前未完成的作品是。
还有四个名词解释,玄奘,尤金奈达,通天塔,三纲五常,最后一个小作文,招聘的,一个大作文,刘宓庆对“语感”的一段话,对它发表评论。
政治【学科概述】不用因为政治纷繁复杂的知识点而担心政治会不过线,只要肯下功夫,60分是很容易达到的。
但对于想考名校的朋友,如果期望考到75分左右的高分,你们就需要仔细做选择题,认真地理解重点了。
政治在2010年,大纲作了大幅修订,有了如今大纲的基本结构。
总体上来说,考研政治降低了专业难度,给没怎么学习过政治专业知识的同学越来越多的机会。
政治总分100分,50分客观选择,50分主观简答。
先说主观题,一共5道大题,分别对应政治的五个部分,考点很难预料,但是实际能得到分数不少。
感觉上,只要你能紧贴题目的意思写上两百来字言之成理的话,25分应当毫无悬念。

首都师范大学翻译硕士考研经验:考研一定要给自己制定一个计划,每天晚上列出明天的任务,尽量完成,主要是翻译。
我的安排是上午脑子还清醒些,练习翻译然后下午睡醒后做阅读,因为我的阅读理解很不好,而且我特别不喜欢这道题,但是学校考啊,没办法啊,不能不练啊!刚开始就是一天四篇的量。
也许有的同学说不算多,但是对于一个极其不喜欢这道题还要装作很喜欢去做的人来说,那是什么感觉,分分钟吐出来啊,看到就不想吃饭啊!大概坚持了差不多一个月感觉有点提升,就开始每天两篇的量去做,还是可以的,这个阅读理解也是不能丢的,哪怕你每天少做,也要坚持每天都做。
这样才会有效果。
当然最终的效果就在你的试卷上体现啦!我的研友是个对阅读欲罢不能的女生,基本上她做四篇的速度我只能做两篇,所以刚开始的时候看她做阅读我都不想说话了,说多了都是泪啊。
但是后来我的阅读还是可以的。
所以我的亲身经历告诉大家,练习多了还是有用滴!同时,我这时每天两篇改错,后期改成一天一篇。
值得一提的是,15年的题里没有改错,换成了翻译,至于明年有没有就不清楚了。

2019年考研英语一翻译真题解析
2019年考研英语⼀翻译真题解析 要想做好考研英语翻译这类题⽬,就要会拆分句⼦。
⼩编为⼤家提供2019年考研英语⼀翻译真题解析,⼀起来看看翻译真题解析吧! 2019年考研英语⼀翻译真题解析 It wasn’t until after my retirement that I had the time to read scientific papers in medical journals with anything like close attention. Until then, I had, like most doctors, read the authors’ conclusions and assumed that they bore some necessary relation to what had gone before. I had also naively assumed that the editors had done their job and checked the intellectual coherence and probity of the contents of their journals. It was only after I started to write a weekly column about the medical journals, and began to read scientific papers from beginning to end, that I realized just how bad — inaccurate, misleading, sloppy, illogical — much of the medical literature, even in the best journals, frequently was. My discovery pleased and reassured me in a way: for it showed me that, even in advancing age, I was still capable of being surprised. I came to recognize various signs of a bad paper: the kind of paper that purports to show that people who eat more than one kilo of broccoli a week were 1.17 times more likely than those who eat less to suffer late in life from pernicious anaemia.46) There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals which, when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press, generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms. Why is so much bad science published? A recent paper, titled ‘The Natural Selection of Bad Science’, published on the Royal Society’s open science website, attempts to answer this intriguing and important question. According to the authors, the problem is not merely that people do bad science, as they have always done, but that our current system of career advancement positively encourages it. They quote ananonymous researcher who said pithily: ‘Poor methods get results.’ What is important is not truth, let alone importance, but publication, which has become almost an end in itself. There has been a kind of inflationary process at work: 47) nowadays anyone applying for a research post has to have published twice the number of papers that would have been required for the same post only 10 years ago. Never mind the quality, then, count the number. It is at least an objective measure. In addition to the pressure to publish, there is a preference in journals for positive rather than negative results. To prove that factor a has no effect whatever on outcome b may be important in the sense that it refutes a hypothesis, but it is not half so captivating as that factor a has some marginally positive statistical association with outcome b. It may be an elementary principle of statistics that association is not causation, but in practice everyone forgets it. The easiest way to generate positive associations is to do bad science, for example by trawling through a whole lot of data without a prior hypothesis. For example, if you took 100 dietary factors and tried to associate them with flat feet, you would find some of them that were associated with that condition, associations so strong that at first sight they would appear not to have arisen by chance. Once it has been shown that the consumption of, shall we say, red cabbage is associated with flat feet, one of two things can happen: someone will try to reproduce the result, or no one will, in which case it will enter scientific mythology. The penalties for having published results which are not reproducible, and prove before long to be misleading, usually do not cancel out the prestige of having published them in the first place: and therefore it is better, from the career point of view, to publish junk than to publish nothing at all. A long list of publications, all of them valueless, is always impressive. 48)Attempts have been made to (control this inflation命题⼈改编为curb this kind tendency),(for example by trying, when it comes to career advancement这部分被出题⼈删除), to incorporate some measure of quality as well as quantity into the assessment of an applicant’s published papers. This is the famed citation index, that is to say the number of times a paper has been quoted elsewhere in the scientific literature, the assumption being that an important paper will be cited more often than one of small account. 49) This would be reasonable enough if it were not for the fact that scientists can easily arrange to cite themselves in their future publications, or get associates to do so for them in return for similar favors. Boiling down an individual’s output to simple, objective metrics, such as number of publications or journal impacts, entails considerable savings in time, energy and ambiguity. Unfortunately, the long-term costs of using simple quantitative metrics to assess researcher merit are likely to be quite great. 50) If we are serious about ensuring that our science is both meaningful and reproducible, we must ensure that our institutions incentivize that kind of science. In other words, what we need is more emphasis on personal contact and even nepotism in the way careers are advanced: but tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice… 翻译解析: 46) There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals which, when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press, generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms. 第⼀步:切分句⼦ 1.There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals 2., when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press, 3.which generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms. 第⼆步:翻译分句 1.There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals(知识点:there be句型) 医学期刊中存在着⼤量的谬论 2., when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press,(知识点:被动句) 由⼴播公司和新闻媒体所占据的 3.which generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms.(知识点:定语从句) 这不仅导致了健康恐慌,还引起了短暂的饮⾷狂热 第三步:整合句⼦ 医学期刊中存在⼤量的这种谬论,如果由⼴播公司和新闻媒体报道,不仅会导致健康恐慌,还将引起短暂的饮⾷狂热。
