One thinks of successes in medicine in the fight against disease, such as the invention of antibiotics and the promise held out by advances in biogenetic engineering. On a broader scale, one thinks of man's success in harnessing new forms of energy from steam power through oil to nuclear power.Yet, nature has often hit back in unexpected ways to these attempts to tame it. New forms ofAppendix I - 98-disease that are resistant to antibiotics are constantly developing. Burning fossil fuels has led to fears of global warming; while nuclear power has produced dangerous waste that will remain a hazard for generations to come.However, perhaps to talk of man triumphing over nature is the wrong way to look at the matter. We need to find ways to work with nature rather than forever fighting against it.(154 words)Unit 2Text org. Ex. 2 On P381. Smart cars can see, hear, feel, smell, talk, and act;2.

第九单元Text不妨这么讲比尔·布雷森对于第一次到英国的许多美国人而言,最让他们惊讶的事情之一就是多年来他们运用自如的母语在应对大不列颠岛屿上使用的纷繁复杂的英国时,突然显得力不从心。
到了英国之后,你会发现自己所发出的有声噪音(或许用言语这一词过重了些)在任何地方,往好处讲被看作是优雅而又精确的,往坏处讲成了喧闹的骗人的鬼话。
即使最平淡无奇的遭遇也会顿时使人迷惑不解。
当我初到这个国家时,记得有一次,午饭时间我到了一家乡村酒吧,我问他们有什么样的三明治,“我们这儿有烧牛肉。
”吧台后的人一边回答,一边弯着腰去看一个盛满各式各样三明治的玻璃盒子,“还有火腿和奶酪”。
“我就要火腿和奶酪”我说。
那个人看着我,好像是我误解了他的意思:“我们有烧牛肉、火腿和奶酪”他用更慢的速度重复了一遍。
“是的”。
我回答,他的话我都能理解。
“那么你要点什么?”“我就要火腿和奶酪。
”我预感到我们之间有些误解。
他盯着我,好像在思量我是不是在故意找麻烦,“你一样要一个?”“不,只要一个。
”“好的,但是哪一个呢?”我发现他的脸颊开始泛红。
“我说的那个。
”我很不自在地回答。
最后,他给我端上了一盘午餐,包括两个三明治,一只火腿和一片奶酪,直到后来我才发现在那个时候,他们不知道把火腿和奶酪放在一个简单的英式三明治里(或许尝起来味道会很好)。
奥斯卡·王尔德说过:“除了语言,英国人实际上与美国人没有什么不同。
”他的话太对了。
在我看来,错误完全在于他们。
你知道,英国人总是在迷惑外国人的过程中暗自取乐——有时是无意的。
就像一个人试图要听懂板球比赛的讲解一样。
这就是为什么人们从荒诞的诗文和疯颠的幽默中找乐,为什么他们有立宪制政府却没有成文的宪法。
为什么他们在六月庆祝女王生日,而实际上她是在四月出生。
总之,这就是为什么他们创造了英语这样一种毫无逻辑的怪僻的语言的原因。
我要提醒你的是,在这种语言中,ough 可以有下列六种发音(如在bough, thought, through, trough, though, and hiccough)。
