In 1998 he gave up his American passport to become a British citizen, since his life is now centered in Europe. "National identity makes no difference for me," he says.

It is an intriguing question and one that has led to intense debate, stirring up emotions, with strong views being expressed on whether nature or nurture plays the dominant role. The debate has generated numerous hypotheses, but arriving at a conclusion that satisfies everyone would prove difficult.4.2 TranslationHave you heard about Prof. Smith from our university? He published a paper in Nature, claiming that he had discovered a new method that could be used in treating AIDS, and that his method was simpler and more effective than current technology. Our university thought highly of his paper, giving him a great amount of money in the form of a research grant so that he could buy more advanced instruments. Prof. Smith has been bombarded with media interviews, likely because reporters believe that he might be awarded the Nobel Prize for his contribution to medicine. However, some scientists suspect that the professor, brilliant according to the media, might have lied. They claim that by the end of their own experiments, following the method revealed in Prof. Sm ith’s paper, they couldn’t produce the same results as he had claimed. Prof. Smith has reacted by saying these colleagues made mistakes in their experiments and observations. We’ll wait and see who is right.Reading & Comprehending1. Comprehension Check for Reading 1A.

Unit 4学英语既有乐趣又有回报文学的研究——包含对哲学、宗教、历史事件的发展和观念由来的研究，不仅是文明的，并且有教化作用，而且是流行的和实际的。
在所有从文理学院毕业并获得学士学位的人中，有六分之一的主修英语。
让人惊异的是可，这些毕业生能胜任范围相当广泛的工作。
他们的经验表明，这种广泛流行的偏见是错误的，即英语专业的学生只能从事新闻或教学工作：事实上，主修英语的学生也为未来从事法律、医学、商业和公职等职业做了相当好的准备。
有人时常劝告期望上法学院或医学院的大学生要学习与他们的择业有直接联系的严格指定的课程。
有人还建议未来法学院的学生应该选修政治、历史、会计、商业管理，甚至人体解刨学、婚姻和家庭生活等课程。
未来医学院的学生被引导去学习多种理科课程，实际上，这些课程比他们考入医学院所需要的理科课程要多得多。
令人惊讶的是，许多法学院和医学院却指出，如此专门化的准备不但没有必要，而且并不可取。
没有什么“法律预科”课程：上法学院和从事法律行业的最好的准备是培养学生能够进行批判性的思考；能够进行清晰的合乎逻辑的自我表达，能够对他人的动机、行动和思想进行敏锐的分析。
这些技能也正是英语专业要教给学生掌握的技能。
此外，要进入法学院就读，通常需要具有合格院校颁发的学士学位，还需要拿到最低限度的各课平均积分点，并和在法学院录取考试中取得一个通得过的分数。
这项测试包括三个部分：首先是测试阅读理解、图形分类和书面材料评估等能力。
测试的第二部分是考核对英语语法和词汇用法的掌握能力，组织书面材料的能力和文字编辑的能力。
第三个部分是检验学生的文学、艺术、音乐、自然科学和社会科学的一般知识。
显而易见，主修英语的学生参加法学院的录取考试回得心应手。
至于医学院，入学要求的一条知识修满32个学时的理科课程。
这一要求对主修英语的学生来说肯定不成问题。
另外，许多医学院校要求学生必须在医学院入学考试中取得规定的最低分，这一测试对全面发展的文科学生来说有十分有利。
