当代研究生英语课后答案
练习答案Unit 1Text A T ax Competition Spurs GlobalizationⅡ. Key to the exercises1. Reading comprehension(1) The economic forces behind globalization include rising trade and investment flows, greater labor mobility, and rapid transfers of technology. Those trends have bee stimulated by thederegulation of financial markets, reductions in trade barriers, and lower communication costs.(2) Most economists support globalization because it raises the incomes of people worldwide. Another lesser0noticed benefit is that it makes it harder for governments to sustain excessively high tax rates. When economic integration increases, individuals and businesses gain the freedom to take advantage of low tax rates abroad.(3) It shows that some smart nations like Ireland are treating international tax competition as an opportunity, not a threat.(4) First, high0tax countries have urged international organizations to reduce tax competition. Second, many nations are adding layers of complex rules on businesses to discourage them from investing abroad, rather than reducing tax burdens so that businesses want to invest at home.(5) Because there are more opportunities and lower taxes in cities such as London.(6) The author cites the case of Ireland to show that with the reduction of taxes, a large number of immigrants are attracted, and people at home are unwilling to migrate out. The lower one country's tax is, the more skilled people are attracted.(7) Because market competition encourages production efficiency. Tax competition provides an incentive to improve government efficiency. For example, the Federal government is no longer a monopoly―Americans now are able to invest abroad, retire in a low0tax Caribbean country, or move their business to low0tax Ireland. Accordingly, the Federal government needs to reform the tax code and provide services more efficiently to encourage Americans and their money to stay at home.(8) Tax competition among countries should be a win0win policy, as it restrains governments and helps spur global economic growth.2. Vocabulary(1) d (2) g (3) k (4) I (5) b (6) m (7) c (8) f (9) n (10) a3. Paraphrase(1) Until now, basic economic forces have been greater in importance than political efforts to make this trend slow.(2) Efforts to oppose the effects of economic integration have extended from anti0globalization protests to Congressional efforts to prevent American companies from forming new corporations in foreign countries.(3) The U.S. is able to be divided into this group because it has one ofthe highest corporate tax rates.(4) International investors have been affected easily by changes and differences between national tax rates when their investment choices have increased.(5) For many years, young Irish people went to America and other foreign countries, and tried to find a way to live a better life. But after Ireland reduced individual tax and then quickly cut corporate tax, the pattern of out0migration was changed around completely.(6) If the U.S. makes progress in tax reform, other nations would probably reform their taxes in the same way, as they did when the U.S. reduced rates in the 1980s.4. Cloze(1) and(2) understand(3) about(4) sides(5) what(6) bad(7) nor(8) properly(9) destroy(10) says(11) which(12) stronger(13) behind(14) up(15) While(16) unique(17) dark(18) benefits(19) from(20) rule5.

Translate the following sentences into English.(1) With the growing of this town's economy, people intend to tailor afirst0class nursing home for the needs of the local elderly.(2) Because of the recessionary effect on the economy, many small businesses have gone bankrupt or have been swallowed up by giant corporations.(3) The facts relative to the case have been surveyed clearly, and the court has still to pass judgment on it.(4) He didn't marry her, because he felt that although pity was closely akin to love, they were still different. He was eager to marry for love, not pity.(5) Your advice was a great help to me, so a small expression of my gratitude is in place.Text B Measuring GlobalizationKey to the exercises1. F2. F3. T4. F5. T6. T7. F8. F9. F10. TUnit 2Text A Climate Talks Collapse: Rejoice, Rejoice!Ⅱ. Key to the exercises1. Reading comprehension(1) This sentence reveals that the author didn't feel disappointed about the collapse of the conference. Instead, he thought it was a good thing in the long run. A similar attitude is also embedded in sentences like "climate talks collapse: rejoice, rejoice!", "And then, thank God, it all collapsed." and "we are better off with a clean slate than a weak precedent."(2) First, the targets decided on the conference are too measly, more than ten times less than we need to stabilize the problem. Even if the conference had been a success, the crisis would still not be able to be diverted. Second, once the agreement had been made, politicians would stop wasting their time on climate problems for some time, giving the public a false impression that something was being done. What's more, some developed countries would frequently use "flexible mechanisms" to delude. So the author thought the collapse was for the best.(3) According to the text, the real solution to the climate crisis is to adapt economics. For example, unnecessary dependence on the global economy should be shifted towards dependence on the local economy, and infrastructure should be established to free us from dependence on fossil fuels, and wind power should be better exploited to avoid more pollution.(4) The author thought this claim was ridiculous. He thought if we did not take action, the cost would be much more. So, according to him, it was worthwhile for us to take action to combat climate crisis compared with the loss caused by natural disasters.(5) The author considered this as a waste, because the chance for the occurrence of an attack from a nuclear state is slim. To waste money on something unlikely to happen is automatically unwise. He thought it would be better to spend the same sum on the prevention of the deterioration of climate, which has a greater possibility to happen.2. Vocabulary(1) splashed(2) comply(3) offset(4) concessions(5) pledged(6) prohibitive(7) Astoundingly(8) undermined(9) deluded(10) tumbled 3. Paraphrase(1) After many years of warning from people who are concerned about the protection of environment, groups of influential people in science and politics in most countries had finally began to realize and understand.(2) The analysis of the IPCC scientists was repeated by a number of other scientific groups, and even by the British and American government.(3) Actually, we might be wiser to keep a clean record than a weak climate agreement made earlier. In another words, we might be wiser not to have any if we can only achieve a climate agreement which is not so binding.(4) Without changing our economics, we will just be saving the separate leaves on a dying tree. That is to say, without changing our economics, the action taken by us will be just superficial, not enough to divert the worsening situation.(5) Our government, similar to its predecessors, sticks to the belief that increased global trade is naturally beneficial.(6) This has not only weakened the local economies gradually, but has also led to the situation where each mouthful of food involves the consumption of gallons of fuel.(7) Surprisingly, some people still declare that climate change is something imaginary and impossible-and that, even if it is not imaginary, the costs of changing the situation will prevent us from taking action.(8) There is no negative side in the action to prevent climate change.4.

Translate the following paragraph into Chinese.但是,一切都考虑进去了之后,那个长期的真正能够解决环境危机的方法却被所有的领导人忽视了.倘若不去调整我们的经济,我们将只能是绿化垂死的树上的个别叶子.我们的政府,和它的前任们一样,坚持认为持续增长的全球贸易理所当然是一件好事情.因此,政府给予了无数直接或间接的资助.这些资助只能使那些生产远距离出口商品的大公司获益:比方说,欧盟的要求使得这个国家不得不进口一些诸如牛奶之类的基本商品.这不仅殃及到了当地的经济,而且会造成一种局面:每一口普普通通的食物在抵达我们嘴边之前都要消耗掉数加仑的燃料.我们正在迅速地朝着美国现在所面临的难以维继的局面发展.在美国,每一盘普普通通的食物都穿越了长达1000多英里的旅程,这并不是聪明的经济,也不是一种很好的做法.B. Translate the following sentences into English.(1) As to the climate crisis, we are better off with a clean slate than aweak proposal. Because once the proposal is made, politicians will close the climate chapter for some time.(2) She's cottoned on that her constant stomachache was caused by eating the smoked meat on offer last week at the local market. (3) That superstar descended on a small costal town, which was splashed across the front page of the local newspaper.(4) His last0ditch effort to win a place in the business world collapsed, which seemed frustrating. But it was also for the best. From the failure, he could learn a lot.(5) Parents lavish their love and care on their children. However, when they become old, some of them are condemned to live alone.(6) The present political leaders of our country, in line with his predecessors, were wedded to the belief that we should not retreat in the action against corruption.(7) The school dropouts in poverty0stricken areas came back to school by courtesy of the subsidies from government and donations from the kind people.(8) Under the effective organization of the local government, the damage caused by the flood has been watered down to the minimum.(9) Superpowers forge ahead in economic development, leaving other countries far behind. But it doesn't necessarily follow that they have the final say in everything.(10) At the end of the day the new executive is no better than his predecessor.Text B Hot StuffKey to the exercisesF2. F3. T4. F5. T6. T3Unit 3Text A How Progress Makes Us SickⅡ. Key to the exercises1. Reading comprehension(1) In Belgium and the Netherlands, the avian flu was wiping out entire chicken farms. And even though Dutch farmers recently slaughtered 18 million birds in hopes of stopping the outbreak, the bird flu has spread to several provinces and jumped from poultry to pigs and even people, causing 83 human cases. The complaints of most infected people were eye inflammation and some developed respiratory illness.(2) They didn't think so because smallpox was largely defeated and AIDS had never been heard nor dreamed of; and at that time medical science was advancing very fast.(3) The ocean disturbance caused an unusually warm winter in the Southeast of America, which gave rise to an explosion of the mouse population that gave a free ride to the hantavirus to be bad enough to infect human beings.(4) In the 1980s, when the farmers in V enezuela cleared millions of acres of forest to create cropland, the arrival of more and more rodents introduced a deadly new virus-Guanarito virus - into theregion. It caused fever, shock and hemorrhaging, infecting more than 100 people and leaving a third of them dead. The lesson we should learn is that almost any activity that disrupts a natural environment can enhance the mobility of disease-causing microbes.(5) A similar experience happened to Malaysian farmers in 1999 after they pushed back the forest to expand their operations. As barns replaced forestland, displaced fruit bats started living in the rafters, contaminating the pigs' drinking water with the Nipah virus. The pigs developed an explosive cough that became known as the one0mile cough because it could be heard from so far away. The virus soon spread from the pigs to their keepers, causing extreme brain inflammation and killing 40 percent of the affected people. It resulted in eight farms closed and a million pigs slaughtered.(6) No, we cannot. Rain forests are not dangerous. The point is that human beings blindly rearrange ecosystems that can be hazardous to our health. Another such example is Lyme disease.(7) The human AIDS viruses are descended from simian pathogens known as SIVs. HIV01 is basically a chimpanzee virus, while HIV02 comes from the sooty mangabey (a monkey). The best suggestion to the current wide spread of AIDS is that African hunters contracted the chimp virus while butchering animals, and then passed it on through sexual contact. The reason why so many people have nowadays got AIDS is not just a new infectious agent but a proliferation of roads, cities and airports, a breakdown of social traditions, and the advent ofblood banking and needle sharing.(8) Human society has been progressing at an unprecedented clip with more and more comfortable life, helped with advanced science and technology. However, many subsequent disasters have told us that a lot of efforts to improve our life is at the expense of the law of nature, which, in turn, can make us sick. One impressive case mentioned by the author is the Malaysian pig farmers' experience in 1999. After they started pushing back the forest to expand their operations, the fruit bats began to live in the rafters, contaminating the pigs' drinking water with a pathogen now known as Nipah virus, which soon spread from pigs to their keepers, killing 40 percent of the affected people.2.

Paraphrase(1) SARS may have been the most important topic in the newspapers last week, but it wasn't the only peculiar disease according to the report the World Health Organization had received.(2) With the continuing manifestation of frightening new illnesses, we become more and more sure that human beings, in spite of our intelligence, are still under the control of the microbe.(3) With smallpox largely defeated, no such thing as AIDS even imagined and medical science advancing fast, we thought humanbeings could defeat all microbes.(4) We are not sure about every factor causing disease.(5) Such accidents are sure to happen until someone stops the spreading of disease.(6) These conditions practically decided HIV's wide spread, and they continue to quickly get every corner of the world infected by the originally unknown bugs.(7) The number of travelers and speed of travel have both reached the highest degree.(8) Nobody can predict how much we can achieve in this work.4.

Reading comprehension(1) They cannot completely outgrow the convention. And they submit to marriage for the sake of public opinion.(2) Marriage differs from the ordinary life insurance agreement only in that it is more binding, more exacting. It's returns are insignificantly small compared with the investments. In taking out an insurancepolicy one pays for it in dollars and cents, always at liberty to discontinue payments. If, however, woman's premium is a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self0respect, her very life, "until death doth part." Moreover, the marriage insurance condemns her to life0long dependency, to parasitism, to complete uselessness, individual as well as social.(3) The statistics show the fact that marriage is a failure. First, every twelfth marriage ends in divorce; second, since 1870 divorces have increased from 28 to 73 for every hundred thousand population; third, adultery, since 1867, as ground for divorce, has increased 270.8 percent; fourth, desertion increased 369.8 percent.(4) The author thinks that Nora leaves her husband because she has come to know that for eight years she had lived with a stranger and borne him children.(5) It is the slavish acquiescence to man's superiority that has kept the marriage institution seemingly intact for so long a period.(6) This is an irony. The author tries to tell us that the change in women's position is indeed extraordinary if we realize that it is only a short time since woman has entered the industrial arena. Six million women now are exploited, robbed, and they go on strike and starve like men. They have to work in every walk of life, from the highest brain work to the most difficult menial labor in the mines and on the railroad track, even detectives and policemen. Women are now doing the things that men used to do. But women don't get any benefit frombeing equal to men. Women are just equally exploited, robbed. That's why "surely the emancipation is complete" is an irony.(7) (open)2. Vocabulary(1) intact(2) humiliated(3) assert(4) subdue(5) repelled(6) bias(7) drab(8) undermine(9) appendix(10) stereotype3.

Key to the exercises1. Reading comprehension(1) According to nationalism, a functioning state must rely upon pure ethnicity and a set of cultural and religious beliefs widely and deeply shared by those within its boundaries.(2) Hypernationalism is the root cause of terrorism. People who are hyper0nationalist are apt to turn a hostile eye toward "intruders." When some visitors engage in an act of criminal violence against the mainstream culture, many people just take a "find0and0expel" attitude, which is easy to initiate ethnic and racist hatred. Violence and terror thus arise.(3) The word "dichotomy" is used here to describe the embarrassing situation of workers from other countries. They work cheap and without complaints for the construction of the country they are livingin. In this respect, they are needed. But at the same time, they can never be accepted by the mainstream culture. They are still deemed as potentially dangerous.(4) Because most terrorists inhabit or have inhabited states which claim that political society can be held together only by a common ethnicity, religious belief, and cultural practice. And they don't criticize the nationalist ideal but attempt to become the new center of power and belief by annihilating those who once discriminated against or subjugated them.(5) In the Middle East, geopolitical and economic considerations make U.S. support both Israeli democracy and the moderate state of Saudi Arabia. This kind of support intensifies destructive nationalism instead of guaranteeing economic and military security. Therefore, although the U.S didn't initiate crude forms of ethnic and racial hatred, it still in some way fuels terrorism.(6) According to the author, to avoid terrorist action between different races and ethnic groups, it might be better for us to nurture cultural and democratic pluralism, in which people with different cultural and national heritage can live together peacefully and prosper together.2.

Unit 1Unit 2Unit 3Unit 4Unit 5Uint 6洛城邂逅混凝土、烟雾及晨色将好莱坞高速公路立交桥下的奥尔瓦多街笼罩在特有的灰色之中,车辆堵塞在路上,几乎一动不动。
杰克无精打采地坐在车里,对此并不真的在乎,因为他知道,如果试图往左转,开到高速路入口,情况可能会糟糕得多。
好在他不用每天这样,如果有人问他,他会肯定地说,以后也决不这样。
稳定的工作有其优点,他不否认考虑过这件事。
他需要一台调频收音机,安装在一辆比他现在开的这辆58款别克更好的车上。
好一点的车有天鹅绒内饰,有为洛城的夏天而设计的电控装置,为冬天开往海滩而设计的精美电热器和除霜器,还有为长途旅行设计的导航控制器,当然车的前后都有声音优美的喇叭,窗户一摁就能关好,将外面高速公路上恼人的噪音隔绝。
实际上,他可能不得不改变整个生活方式。
富有异国情调的古龙香水、长毛绒服装、光线暗淡的夜总会、代基里酒、身穿丝绸长礼服、佩戴项链的女子,她们如同特奎拉酒广告里的女子一样,朦朦胧胧而又富有魅力。
只要让他的想像驰骋,杰克会想像出许多可能的东西。
杰克正想入非非时,瞥见绿灯亮了,他只顾开动汽车,盯了一眼那些有固定工作的人,以示再见。
当他扭过头来,面对前方时,已经晚了一秒钟。
他猛地一下踩住刹车,调转方向,以避免撞上前面那辆车上小小的刹车红灯,但还是砰然一声撞上了。
如果他动作再快一秒钟,也许只会离这辆车很近,不会撞上。
而如果再晚一秒钟,他的车就会爬上这辆丰田车的行李箱。
实际上,他好像没有把前面的车撞坏,而后面的车撞上了他车后部的保险杠,那一撞却严重多了。
杰克想开过这辆丰田车,但又怕前面的车挡路。
当他在几辆车前的路边停下来时,又突然觉得这些车反而有助于他逃走。
他使劲关了两次车门,一方面是为了将车门关紧,同时也再给自己一秒钟时间盘算。
然后,他走到别克车的前面,又走到车后面,看看保险杠及其周围是否碰坏。
然而,镀鉻层上连明显的划痕都没有。
于是他精神振作起来了。

在庄园里,公园和商业中心、红灯区与学校、教堂与杂货店都能区分开来。
4 你可以用同样的方法把信息空间想像为一个巨大的、无边无际的虚拟庄园。
其中有些房产为私人拥有并已租出,有些是公共场所;有的场所适合儿童出入,而有些地方人们最好避开。
不幸的是,正是这些应该避开的地方使得人们心向神往。
这些地方教唆你如何制造炸弹、为你提供淫秽材料、告诉你如何窃取信用卡。
所有这些使信息空间听起来像是一个十分肮脏的地方。
正直的公民纷纷作出这样的结论:最好对它严加管理。
5 但是,在利用规章制度来反击下流之举之前,关键是从根本上理解信息空间的性质。
恶棍并不能在信息空间抢走毫无提防之心的儿童;信息空间也不像一台巨大的电视机,向不情愿的观众播放令人作呕的节目。
在信息空间这座庄园里,用户对他们所去之处、所见所闻、所做所为都要作出选择,一切都出于自愿。
换句话说,信息空间是个出入自便的地方,实际上,信息空间里有很多可去之处。
人们不能盲目上网,必须带着具体的目标上网。
这意味着人们可以选择去哪个网址、看什么内容。
不错,规章制度应该在群体内得以实施,但这些规章制度必须由信息空间内各个群体自己来制定,而不是由法庭或华盛顿的政客们来制定。

例如,如果一位女士走到我跟前,说道:“你的胡子最迷人,”我会无所适从,不知怎样回答才好。
我可能会惊慌得脱口而出:“我也喜欢您的胡子。
”在社会交往中,应对恭维比对付辱骂要艰难得多,这话听起来有点矛盾,却有一定的道理。
闲聊时来句恭维话,往往让我们大多数人不知所措。
例如,有人对我们说上一句动听、赞美的话,我们就慌得说不出话来,膝盖开始瑟瑟发抖。
如果别人称赞不是真正属于我自己的东西时,我根本无法欣然接受。
我家住在一个小山上,俯瞰山下一片宽广的谷地。
来访者惊叹道:“天哪!你这儿的景色太美了!”整个山谷原本就在那里,不是我造的,也不属于我。
然而我傻乎乎地笑着说:“噢,没什么——无非是过去留下的一片土地而已。
”我在接受这种特定的恭维时,表示最能完全接受的说法就是“嗯,我们喜欢。
”采用这种答话必须得小心谨慎。
就某样东西说“我们喜欢”,言外之意就是,还有许多其他人都认为它很令人讨厌。
不久前,我和一批人在一起时,其中有位来自澳大利亚的地球物理学家在滔滔不绝地谈论宇宙中的奇观。

Unit 4THE FUTURE OF ENGLISH01In the middle of the sixteenth century, English was spoken by between four and five millions of people, and stood fifth among the European languages, with French, German, Italian, and Spanish ahead of it in that order, and Russian following. Two hundred years later, Italian had dropped behind but Russian had gone ahead, so that English was still in fifth place. By the end of the Eighteenth Century English began to move forward, and by the middle of the nineteenth it had forced its way into first place. Today it is so far in the lead that it is probably spoken by as many people as the next two languages—Russian and German combined.在16世纪中叶,有四五百万人说英语,说英语的人数在欧洲的语言中名列第五。
前四位依次是法语、德语、意大利语和西班牙语。
俄语排在英语之后。
两百年以后,意大利语排名落后,而俄语的排名靠前了,英语依然处于第五位。
到了18世纪末,英语的地位开始上升。
到19世纪中叶,英语已经跻身于第一位了。
今天,英语的地位遥遥领先,说英语的人数可能达到说后两种语言,即俄语和德语人数的总和。

Unit One
一种真正的市场型管理模式很快成为可能。
在信息空间,我们将能够检验并完善所需要的管理制度——知识产权制度、服务内容与使用权的控制制度、个人隐私权与自由言论制度等。
有些群体允许任何人加入,而有些则只允许符合这样或那样条件的人加入。
能够自持的群体会兴旺发展(或许也会因为志趣与身份日趋特殊,而发展成为几个分支)。
有些群体或因为成员失去兴趣,或因为成员被吓跑而不能幸存下来,它们将渐渐萎缩消亡。
Unit Two
一旦问题得到理解,情况自然有所改善。
那些通常因丈夫不倾听或不谈论每天发生的事情而感到被遗弃、感到丧失生活乐趣的女性会高兴地发现,她们的丈夫一旦知道了不起眼的谈话在女性关系中的地位后,正努力地在适应。
如果丈夫不适应,妻子仍然能够得到安慰,因为她知道,对男人来说,这不是不亲密的表现。
当妻子接受了男女存在区别这一事实后,便会去找自己的朋友或家人说一说话。
那些不能够给予妻子谈话快乐的丈夫,也不应该觉得妻子提出了无理要求。
仍然会有一些夫妻决定离婚,但起码他们的决定是建立在比较现实的期望基础上的。
Unit Three
1. 在形成的初期,地球上很可能没有我们今天称之为海洋和大气层之类的东西。
2. 在20 亿到30 亿年前期间,一部分地球表面的水在太阳能的作用下,形成了结构复杂的化合物,这些化合物灵活多变,足以形成我们称之为“生命”的东西。
3. 整个星球是一种由无机部分和各种各样的有机生命构成的生命形式 (正如我们自己身体那样,既是由各种各样的有机部分构成,又是由骨骼中的无机晶体和血液中的无机水分所构成)。
4. 同样,从全地球的规模考虑,砍掉一整片森林不会在总体上对地球生命构成威胁,但是这样做会对该地区的生态形式造成严重的影响,甚至会造成水的流失,因此引起地质结构的细微变化。
5. 如果排除外界的干扰,食肉动物和被吃动物都保持一个适当的数量,这样对双方都有好处。
6. 目前世界人口的急剧增长率使人类可以被称为生态恶性肿瘤。
这种恶性肿瘤肯定会摧毁生态环境,正如普通的癌细胞会摧毁人的肌体一样。
Unit Four
新词汇、新习语、甚至新发音都以无法抗拒的势力源源不断传入东方。
从前我们常常借用很多英语词或短语,但现在很少这样做。
但英语却吸纳我们创造的词,我们创造有多快,其吸纳的速度几乎就有多快。
我认为,美国电影固然对这一变化起了很大作用,但毫无疑问,还有更深刻的原因。
英语依然有点太严格、有点僵硬,且过于矫揉造作。
而美语的发展却像伊丽莎白时代一样繁荣。
所有那些在英国莎士比亚时代应用的构词方法,现在依然在美国应用着,新词源源不断地产生。
如果莎翁健在,这些新词一定会使他欣喜若狂,就像他所生活的时代产生的新词曾使他欣喜若狂一样。
Unit Five
1. 其目的是弄清世界的运行机制,寻求其间可能存在的规律,洞察事物之间的联系——从构成一切物质的亚核粒子,到生物有机体,人类社会群体,以至整个宇宙。
2. 世界上每一文化群体都以这样或那样的方式提出过这些问题。
所提供的答案几乎都带有“就这么回事”的性质,而试图做的解释总是脱离实验,甚至没有经过细心的比较观察。
3. 要透彻地领悟一件事物,哪怕是一桩小事——比如惠特曼所说的一片草叶,也会经历一种喜悦,这种喜悦,在整个世界的所有生灵中只有人类才能感受到。
4. 有时我们听到一些科学家发表的宣言,他们充满信心地宣称,每一件值得弄清的事物将很快会为大家所知,或者说有些已经众所周知。
他们描绘的是狄奥尼修斯和波利尼西亚时代的图画,在这些画中,人们对知识探索的热情已经衰退,取而代之的是一种被征服的怠惰,成了饮用发酵椰子汁和其他一些温和迷幻剂的安逸度日者。
5. 如果我们可以缩小身体进入这个水晶的世界,我们可以看见一排排原子形成有序的点阵,呈一种有规律的交替结构——钠原子、氯原子、氯化钠原子,这些点阵结构详细地勾画出我们所站的这一层原子以及在我们头上、头下的所有原子层的示意图。
Unit 6
杰克正想入非非时,瞥见绿灯亮了,他只顾开动汽车,盯了一眼那些有固定工作的人,以示再见。
当他扭过头来,面对前方时,已经晚了一秒钟。
他猛地一下踩住刹车,调转方向,以避免撞上前面那辆车上小小的刹车红灯,但还是砰然一声撞上了。
如果他动作再快一秒钟,也许只会离这辆车很近,不会撞上。
而如果再晚一秒钟,他的车就会爬上这辆丰田车的行李箱。
实际上,他好像没有把前面的车撞坏,而后面的车撞上了他车后部的保险杠,那一撞却严重多了。
Unit 7
1.就在这同一天,我的车又坏了,电冰箱不制冷了;而且我还得知我的右后臼齿牙根管需要镶补。
2.如果我们突然看到油漆又跃回旧楼房的墙面,我们准会感到有问题。
如果我们看到一个鸡蛋自己拼凑在一起又跳回蛋壳,我们准会开怀大笑,就像看一组倒放的电影镜头那样。
3.婚姻中很容易出现熵,当伴侣们过于忙于自己的事而忽视了弥补小小裂痕时,几乎可以肯定他们的婚姻要破裂。
4.这个分子在任何一点上朝冰箱方向运动的概率都正好是50%;它朝背离冰箱方向运动的概率也是50%。
但是如果数十亿个冷热空气分子混合在一起,那么所有冷空气分子朝冰箱方向运动,同时所有热空气分子背离冰箱运动的概率实际上是零。
5.如果在厨房里只有十几个的空气分子,那么我等上一年左右,或许在某个时刻6 个最冷的分子会聚集在冰箱里。
但是,这一等式中的变量越多、参加这一游戏的角色越多,那么他们的路径井然有序地相互吻合的可能性就越小。
Unit 8
1. 第一次浪潮涉及有形产品——硬件,它与构成软件的计算机程序相对而言。
本世纪六七十年代,圣何塞和旧金山地带的圣克拉拉谷的一些公司为计算机生产出存储器硅芯片,于是便有了“硅谷”的名字。
接着他们又生产了用以指令计算机操作的逻辑硅芯片。
2. 财富形成的第二次浪潮涉及软件——包括人们用于工作或娱乐的“应用”软件,就像文字处理程序或者计算机游戏之类,以及用于管理业务和计算机网络自身运行的“系统”软件。
3. 但是无论是硬件革命还是软件革命,与现在因特网上所发生的情况相比,其财富创造的影响力都显得非常缓慢。
短短数年之前,在日内瓦CERN 研究中心工作的英国物理学家Tim Berners 发明了一种方案,用以连接与某一主题或一系列主题相关的数据,这些数据贮存在各地各种不同的计算机内。
4.E-Bay 网点的在线拍卖同样有利可图,因为它每拍卖一次都要向买卖双方收取一定的佣金。
但是如今大多数国际互联网公司都承受着重大的短期损失,证券市场投资者通常认为这种损失会在商业计划里某个似乎永远不会到来的“第三年”中转为盈利。
5. 尽管上述这些获利的基本模式最终将证明是站不住脚的,但到目前为之,它们却足以使很多人十分富有。
实际上所有这些财富都是由技术公司股组成的,在今后10 年中,其中的一些股份或大多数股份会逐渐散失。
Unit 9
“我们很容易把这样的悲剧归罪于他人——同行的竞争压力、紧张的职业、毒贩子,以及除了我们自己以外的所有其他人。
但是,这类问题多数起源于家里,也就是在我们把孩子抚养成人的时候。
承认这一点对我来说很不容易,我没有能够在帕特里克身上培养面对生活所需要的自尊。
无论他做得多么好,他都觉得自己失败了。
他吸毒,是因为毒品能使他摆脱这种失败感。
当我们明白并且接受这一原因时,也许我们会为解决这个问题做点什么。
”
Unit 10
虽然他知道自己走过上千次,可就是辨认不出这里的任何特征。
这条路对他来说陌生得就好像是在西伯利亚。
到了夜晚,情况就更复杂了。
我们平常闲逛时,总是像飞行员那样(尽管是不自觉地),凭借熟知的信号塔或海角来调整方向。
我们只有在完全迷失道路时,才会体会到大自然的广袤与奇特。
直到我们迷失道路,换句话说,直到我们失却外物,才开始找回自己,才会认识到自己的位置。
