1-We’ve been hitAdam Mayblum过去很享受看着暴风雨抽打他办公室窗户的场景:你认为这就是权力吗?Mayblum可能会讥笑。
我在世界贸易中心的87楼。
这就是权力。
百叶窗上的拉绳看起来像在轻轻地摇晃,但它只是一种假象。
虽然它是在距离地面1,040 英尺的高空中,但是世贸中心还是相当稳固的。
在9 月的那个早上,当Mayblum感觉到毁灭性的隆隆声时,他瞥了一眼拉绳。
他们被疯狂坠入3 英尺的任一方向。
那天早上,有数千人将被卷入一场惊心动魄的灾难,Mayblum也是其中的一员。
尽管多达25,000人找到了他们安全逃生的方式,但另外的5,000 人却没有逃脱得了这场灾难。
对于有些人来说,生死攸关的是此时此刻他们所在的地理位置---不仅是哪幢楼,哪一层,更重要的是在大楼的哪个角落。
对于有些人来说,选择使用哪一个楼梯是最基本的。
其他人所面对的则是终极的道德困境:拯救自己,还是拯救他人。
在名为戴维斯的金融服务公司里,Adam Mayblum办公室内的混乱持续了几秒钟。
他知道他需要逃离那里。
他把T恤撕成碎片,浸泡在水中,并分发给同事,用来捂住他们的脸。
其中:有一个是戴维斯的首席交易员---哈里·拉莫斯。
Mayblum曾与拉莫斯断断续续一起工作了14 年之久。
当他在楼梯上急速奔跑时,火花溅在了他的脚踝上。
当他冲下一段楼梯之后,他才意识到他的贸易伙伴,朱红还落在后面。
他又跑上楼,此时这个地方充满了烟和燃烧的喷气燃料。
看不到朱红的影子。
Mayblum又冲下楼梯,成功到达了78 楼,这里恰好是有一部电梯和一个楼梯的中转大厅。
他看到了一个令人放心的景象,拉莫斯已经淌进混乱的场面中,协助恐慌的工人转到安全的楼梯间。
Mayblum继续往下跑,他小腿的肌肉因抽筋而收缩。
在53层。
他碰见了一个身材粗壮的男人,他的腿无法移动了。
“你想自己过来,还是你想要我们来帮助你?”Mayblum大声喊道。
这个男的说自己需要帮助,Adam Mayblum答应了。

英-高级英语1何兆熊Unit10TheArtistinAmericaThe Artist in AmericaJohn F. Kennedy1 This day, devoted to the memory of Robert Frost1, offers an opportunity for reflection which is prized2 by politicians as well as by others and even by poets. For Robert Frost was one of the granite3 figures of our time in America. He was supremely4 two things—an artist and an American.2 A nation reveals itself5 not only by the men it produces, also by the men it honors, the men it remembers.3 In America our heroes have customarily run to men of large accomplishments. But today this college6 and country honors a man [1] whose contribution was not to our size but to our spirit; not to our political beliefs but to our insight; not to our self-esteem, but to ourself-comprehension. 4 [2] In honoring Robert Frost we therefore can pay honor to the deepest sources of our national strength. That strength takes many forms and the most obvious forms are not always the most significant.5 The men who create power make an indispensable contribution to the nation’s greatness. [3] But the men who question power make a contribution just as indispensable, especially when that questioning is disinterested7.6 For they determine whether we use power or power uses us. [5] Our national strength matters; but the spirit which informs8 and controls our strength matters just as much. This was the special significance of Robert Frost.7 [6] He brought an unsparing9 instinct for reality to bearon10 the platitudes11 and pieties12 of society. [7] His sense of the human tragedy fortified13 him against self-deception and easy consolation.8 [8] “I have been,” he wrote, “one acquainted with14 the night.”9 [9] And because he knew the midnight as well as the high noon, because he understood the ordeal as well as the triumph of the human spirit, he gave his age strength with which to overcome despair.10 At bottom he held a deep faith in the spirit of man. And it’s hardly an accident15 that Ro bert Frost coupled16 poetry and power. [10] For he saw poetry as the means of saving power from itself.11 When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man’s concern, poetry reminds him of th e richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses12 For art establishes the basic human truths which must serve as the touchstones of our judgment. [11] The artist, however faithful to his personal vision of reality, becomes the last champion18 of the individual mind and sensibility against an intrusive society and an officious19 state.13 The great artist is thus a solitary figure. He has, as Frost said, [12] “a lover’s quarrel with the world.” In pursuing his perceptions of reality he must often sail against the currents20 of his time. This is not a popular role.14 [13] If Robert Frost was much honored during his lifetime, it was because a good many preferred to ignore his darker truths.15 [14] Yet in retrospect21 we see ho w the artist’s fidelity has strengthened the fiber22 of our national life. [15] Ifsometimes our great artists have been the most critical of our society it is because their sensitivity and their concern for justice, which must motivate any true artist, makes him aware that our nation falls short of23 its highest potential.16 I see little of more importance to the future of our country and our civilization than full recognition of the place of the artist. If art is to nourish24 the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.17 We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth. And as Mr. (Archibald) MacLeish25 once remarked of poets, [16] “There is nothing worse for our t rade than to be in style26.”18 [17] In free society art is not a weapon and it does not belong to the sphere of polemics27 and ideology. [18] Artists are not engineers of the soul.19 It may be different elsewhere. [19] But democratic society—in it—the highest duty of the writer, the composer, the artist is to remain true to himself and to let the chips fall where they may28.20 In serving his vision of the truth the artist best serves his nation. And the nation which disdains29 the mission of art invites30 the fate of Robert Frost’s hired man—[20] “the fate of having nothing to look backward to with pride and nothing to look forward to with hope.”21 I look forward to a great future for America—[21] a future in which our country will match its military strength with our moral restraint31, its wealth with our wisdom, its power with our purpose.22 I look forward to an America which will not be afraid of grace and beauty, which will protect the beauty of our naturalenvironment, which will preserve the great old American houses and squares and parks of our national past and which will build handsome and balanced cities for our future.23 I look forward to an America which will reward achievement in the arts as we reward achievement in business or statecraft32.24 I look forward to an America which will steadily raise the standards of artistic accomplishment and which will steadily enlarge cultural opportunities for all of our citizens.25 I look forward to an America which commands33 respect throughout the world not only for its strength but for its civilization as well.26 And I look forward to a world which will be safe not only for democracy and diversity but also for personal distinction.27 [22] Robert Frost was often skeptical about projects for human improvement. Yet I do not think he would disdain this hope.28 [23] As he wrote during the uncertain days of the Second War:[24] Take human nature altogether since time began,…And it must be a little more in favor of man,Say a fraction of one percent at the very least,…Our hold on the planet wouldn’t have so increased.29 Because of Mr. Frost’s life and work, b ecause of the life and work of this college, our hold on this planet has increased.。
Unit 3: PainIntroductionPain is a universal human experience that can be both physically and emotionally debilitating. It is an unpleasant sensation that is often associated with injury or illness. In this unit, we will explore the concept of pain and its impact on individuals and societies.Understanding PainWhat is Pain?Pain is often defined as an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage. It serves as a warning signal to the body, alerting it to potential harm or injury. Pain can be acute or chronic, and it can vary in intensity and duration.Types of Pain1.Acute Pain: Acute pain is usually short-term and istypically caused by an injury or illness. It serves as aprotective mechanism to prevent further harm to the body.Acute pain is usually sharp and localized, and it oftenresolves once the underlying cause has been treated.2.Chronic Pain: Chronic pain is long-term and persistsfor weeks, months, or even years. It can be caused byconditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, or nerve damage.Unlike acute pain, chronic pain is often not a warning sign of ongoing harm to the body. It can significantly impact a person’s quality of life and may require ongoingmanagement and treatment.How Pain is PerceivedPain perception is a complex process that involves the interaction of sensory, emotional, and cognitive factors. The perception of pain can differ from person to person based on various factors such as age, gender, culture, and individual differences in pain tolerance.The Impact of PainPain can have a profound impact on individuals and society as a whole. It can affect a person’s physical and emotional well-being, impair their ability to work or engage in daily activities, and strain relationships. Chronic pain, in particular, can lead to increased healthcare costs, decreased productivity, and reduced quality of life.Coping with PainPain Management TechniquesThere are various techniques and strategies individuals can use to cope with pain:1.Medications: Over-the-counter pain relievers, suchas acetaminophen or ibuprofen, can help alleviate mild tomoderate pain. For more severe pain, prescriptionmedications may be necessary.2.Physical Therapy: Physical therapy can helpimprove mobility and reduce pain in individuals withmusculoskeletal conditions. It may involve exercises,manual therapy, or the use of heat and cold therapy.3.Mind-body Techniques: Practices such as meditation,deep breathing exercises, and mindfulness can helpindividuals manage pain by promoting relaxation andreducing stress.4.Alternative Therapies: Some individuals find relieffrom pain through alternative therapies such asacupuncture, chiropractic care, or herbal remedies. It isessential to consult with a healthcare professional beforetrying any alternative treatment.Psychological ApproachesPsychological approaches to pain management focus on addressing the emotional and cognitive aspects of pain. These approaches may include:1.Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT aims tochange negative thoughts and behaviors associated withpain through techniques such as relaxation training, guided imagery, and cognitive restructuring.2.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACThelps individuals develop acceptance and mindfulnessskills to cope with pain and engage in activities that aremeaningful to them.3.Biofeedback: Biofeedback involves using electronicmonitoring devices to help individuals become aware ofand control their physiological responses to pain.ConclusionPain is a complex and multifaceted experience that can significantly impact individuals’ lives. Understanding the different types of pain, how it is perceived, and the various coping strategies available can help individuals manage and alleviate their pain effectively. By using a multidimensional approach that addresses both the physical and emotional aspects of pain, individuals can experience improved quality of life and well-being.。
