|人在自然界| 亚历山大·斯伯金1)人类生活在大自然的王国里。

他们时刻被大自然所包围并与之相互影响。

人类呼吸的空气、喝下的水和摄入的食物，无一不令人类时刻感知到大自然的影响。

我们与大自然血肉相连，离开大自然，我们将无法生存。

2)人类不仅生活在大自然之中，同时也在改变着大自然。

人类把自然资源转变为各种文化，社会历史的财富。

人类降服并控制了电，迫使它为人类社会的利益服务。

人类不仅把各种各样的动植物转移到不同的气候环境，也改变了他生活环境的地貌和气候并使动植物因之而发生转变。

3)随着社会的发展，人类对大自然的直接依赖越来越少，而间接的依赖却越来越多。

我们远古的祖先生活在大自然的威胁及破坏力的恐惧之中，他们常常连基本的生活物资都无法获取。

然而，尽管工具不甚完备，他们却能同心协力，顽强工作，并总是有所收获。

在与人类的相互作用中，大自然也发生了改变。

森林被破坏了，耕地面积增加了。

大自然及其威力被看成是和人类敌对的东西。

譬如，森林被认为是野性的和令人恐惧的，因此人类便想方设法使其面积缩小。

这一切都是打着“文明”的旗号进行的，所谓“文明”，就是人类在哪里建立家园，耕耘土地，哪里的森林就被砍伐。

4)然而，随着岁月的流逝，人类越来越关注的是在何处得到和如何得到生产所需的不可替代的自然资源的问题。

科学与人类改变大自然的实践活动已经使人类意识到了工业在改变地球的进程中对地质产生的重大影响。

5)目前，人与自然以及自然与社会整体之间过去存在的动态平衡，已呈现崩溃的迹象。

生物圈中所谓可替代资源的问题变得极为尖锐。

人类和社会的需求，即便是简单得像淡水一样的物质，也变得越来越难以满足。

清除工业废物的问题也变得日益复杂。

6)现代技术的特征是生产和使用日益丰富的人工合成产品。

人们生产成千上万的人工合成材料。

人们越来越多地用尼龙和其他人造纤维把自己从头到脚地包裹起来，这些绚丽的织物显然对他们无益。

年轻人或许很少注意到这一点，他们更关注的是外表，而不是健康。

Nature nurtures mankind unselfishly with its rich resources. Yet, man is so carried away in his transformation of nature that he is unaware that it also has limitations and needs constant care. Now worn by the excessive demands of mankind, nature is unable to maintain the ecological balance needed.

And treat those two impostors just the same."We are sure to experience both Triumph and Disaster and we must treat them as the same thing taking different appearances because they are essentially interchangeable. 3,never give in, except to convictions of honor and good senseNever give in unless we are convinced that it is honorable and sensible for us to do so. 4,Britain, other nations thought, had drawn a sponge across her slate.Britain, in other nations’ eyes, was completely wiped out/conquered.5,we have only to persevere to conquer.… we have no choice but to hold on until victory comes.Unit21, The phrase "personal space" has a quaint, seventies ring to itThe phrase “personal space” sounds old-fashioned and reminds one of the seventies…2, T-shirt weather can make proximity more alluring (or much, much less).… I have suspected that maybe the cause (of the space invasion) is the season: summer may either make people want to be closer to each other or more likely, to keep a distance between each other.3, The logistics of it vary according to geographypeople in different regions are given different size of personal space.4, individuals routinely commandeer booths and sets of facing seats meant for foursomes.…individuals, as usual, occupy the booths and seats which are desi gned for four people. 5,In the same way that the breeze from a butterfly's wings in Japan may eventually produce a tidal wave in California, I have decided to expand the contracting boundaries of personal space.Because the initial invasion of personal space can cause a chain of reactions, which may bring about a catastrophic consequence, as the breeze from a butterfly’s wings in Japan, if it initiates a chain of waves, may eventually produce a tidal wave in California, I have decided to enlarge the shrinking personal space.Unit31,Given the relatively few restrictions governing access and usage, it is the communications modal equivalent of international watersAs there are relatively few restrictions for reaching and using the Internet, communications via the Internet are comparable to traveling through the international waterways.2,But much less widely reported has been the notion that the Internet may be responsible for furthering the fragmentation of society by alienating its individual users A lot of people talk about the “new information age”, but not so many people are acquainted with the idea that the Internet separates people form each other and fragments society further as a result3,It seems to me that we are a society that values immediate gratification above all else, and what better place to achieve it than in cyberspace, where cyber-world is your cyber-oyster.I think that in our society the top priority is given to the satisfaction of one’s immediate needs, the internet is the best tool for this purpose, for on the internet once can do whatever he likes to do where the cyber-space is the very thing that gives you immediate gratification.Unit41,It was therefore left to Yamahata to record, methodically — and, as it happens, with a great and simple artistry — the effectsThe responsibility was therefore placed on Yamahata’s shoulders to record the effects systematically and incidentally with a great and simple artistry.2,That absence, even more than wreckage, contains the heart of the matter.The vanished city rather than its remains represents the true measure of the event.3,In the photographs, Nagasaki comes into its own.In the photographs Nagasaki regains its own status.4,the human imagination had stumbled to exhaustion in the wreckage of the first ruined city without reaching even the outskirts of the second.The human imagination had been exhausted and stopped at the wreckage of the first ruined city and failed to reach even the outskirts of Nagasaki.5,we seem to need, in addition, some other picture to counterpoise against ruined Nagasaki… apart from the pictures of Nagasaki we seem to need other picture to inspire in us a hope of life to counterbalance the sense of doom suggested by the ruined Nagasaki…Unit51,Slowly, it panned across the tapestry of friendshipSlowly, the movie gave a panoramic picture of friendship.2,This wasn't just another binge of trendiness, but a kind of cinema véritéThis was not simply a shift from one fashion to another, but a truthful description of friendship.3,Well, that duality must have been mortally wounded in some shoot-out at the You're OK, I'm OK Corral.The two sides must have been mortally wounded in the OK Corral gunfight.4,Buddies hang tough together; friends hang onto each other.Buddies hold on together in face of adversity, friends cling tightly to each other for emotional support.Unit61,July 4 is one of the times when the American in me feels a twinge of unease about the great lacunae in our children's understanding of who they are and is prompted to try to fill the gaps.The American in me: the feeling of being American which is deeply rooted in my mind. 2,And our physical separation from our native land is not much of an issue.and living away from our native country does not matter (in our children’s acquisition of our native language).3,In my day little French kids looked like nothing other than little French kidswhen I live in France as an expatriated child, the French kids were dressed in the unique French style, thus looking quite different from their counterparts in other countries.4,That experience no longer seems possible in Western countries — a sad development, in my view.Full immersion in a truly foreign world no longer seems possible in Western countries, and I think this is a deplorable impact of globalization upon the growth of children in a foreign country.Unit 11. 我安排他们在小酒吧见面，但那个小伙子一直都没有来。
