2.必修三Module 2 Developing and Developed Countries发展中国家与发达国家What did world leaders agree to do in 2000? 2000年各国领导人达成了什么协议?What does the Human Development Index measure? 衡量人类发展的尺度是什么?What are the first two Development Goals? 最初的两个发展目标是什么?

What progress have we made towards these goals?我们朝着这些目标取得了哪些进步?

What do developed countries need to do? 发达国家需要做些什么?

The Human Development Report人类发展报告

In the year 2000,147 world leaders agree to work together to reduce poverty by 2015 or earlier. From this agreement came the Human Development Report.

2000年,147个国家领导人达成协议,一起努力到2015年甚至更早缓解贫困,这个协议达成后接下来便产生了《人类发展报告》。

One of the most important sections of this report is the Human Development Index. This examines the achievements of 175 countries.

这个报告最重要的一部分就是“人类发展指标”,这对175个国家的成果作了分析检测。

The Index measures a country's achievements in three ways: life expectancy (how long people usually live),education and income. The index has some surprises. Norway is at the top of the list, while the US is at number 7.

这项指标从三个方面衡量一个国家的成就:寿命(人们通常能活多久)、教育和收入。这项指标显示了一些令人感到意外的情况。挪威高居榜首,而美国则排在第七。

The other top five countries are: Iceland (2), Sweden (3), Australia (4), the Netherlands (5).

中间五个国家按名次分别是冰岛、瑞典、澳大利亚和荷兰,

The UK is in the thirteenth position, while China is in the middle of the list. The bottom ten countries are all African countries, with Sierra Leone (in West Africa) at the bottom of the list.

英国位居第十三,而中国排在名单的中间。处于末端的十个国家均是非洲国家,西非的塞拉利昂排在最后。

The report describes eight Development Goals. The most important goals are to:

这个报告描述了八个发展目标,最重要的目标是:

reduce poverty and hunger;缓解贫穷和饥饿;

make sure that all children have education up to the age of 11;

确保11岁以上的孩子都能接受教育;

fight AIDS and other diseases;战胜艾滋病和其他疾病

improve the environment of poor people, e.g. make sure they have safe drinking water; 改善穷人的生活环境,如确保他们都喝上安全健康的饮用水;

encourage developed countries to give more help to other countries.

鼓励发达国家给予其他国家更多的帮助。

The 2003 Human Development Report gives examples of successful development. For example, in nine years(1953-1962),China increased life expectancy by 13 years. 2003年的《人类发展报告》报告了几个发展成功的实例,譬如,在九年(1953-1962)的时间里,中国的人均寿命就增加了13岁;

In the last ten years in China, 150 million people moved out of poverty. However, the challenges are still great.

在过去的十年中,中国有1.5亿人摆脱了贫穷,然而,仍然还存在着很大的挑战。Every day 799 million people in developing countries are hungry. Over half of these are in South Asia or Africa.

在发展中国家每天仍有7.99亿人处于饥饿中,这些人中有一半是南亚或者非洲的;

Although more than 80% of children in developing countries go to primary school, about 115 million children are not being educated.

虽然发展中国家超过80%的孩子能上小学,但是仍然有1.15亿的孩子没有接受教育;

More than 1 billion people in developing countries do not drink safe water.

在发展中国家还有超过一百万的人喝不到安全健康的饮用水,

However, in other regions of the world, e.g. Eastern Europe,water is now mostly safe to drink.

但是在世界的其他地区,如东欧,水已经基本上可以安全饮用了。

The report shows that we are making some progress but that we need to make greater efforts.

报告显示我们正在进步,但是我们必须作出更大的努力。

Although developed countries give some financial help, they need to give much more. 虽然发达国家提供了一些经济救援,但是提供救援的数量应该大大增加。Interestingly, the countries that give the most money are the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden.

有趣的是,给予最多经济资助的国家分别是荷兰、挪威和瑞典。

These are among the five richest countries in the world, so it is right that they should do so.

这几个国家都是世界上最富裕的五个国家中的,所以它们应该这么做的。

4.必修三MODULE 4 Sandstorms in Asia亚洲沙尘暴

Sandstorms have been a major disaster for many Asian countries for centuries.

几个世纪以来,沙尘暴已经成为很多亚洲国家的严重灾害。

Scientists have tried many ways to solve this problem and in China, a mass campaign has been started to help solve it.

科学家已经想了很多办法来解决这个问题,在中国,已经开展了一场帮助解决沙尘暴问题的大型战争。

Sandstorms are strong, dry winds that carry sand. They are often so thick that you cannot see the sun, and the wind is sometimes strong enough to move sand dunes.

沙尘暴是带有沙石和尘土的强大而干燥的风。沙尘暴通常很浓密以至于人们都看不见太阳,有时候,风的强度大到可以掀动沙丘。

The four main places in the world where there are sandstorms are Central Asia, North America, Central Africa and Australia. Ren Jianbo, from Inner Mongolia described a terrible sandstorm he experienced as a child in the desert.

世界上四个主要的有沙尘暴的地方是:亚洲中部、北美、非洲中部和澳大利亚。来自内蒙古的任建波描述了他小时候在沙漠中经历过的一次严重的沙尘暴,“To have been caught in a sandstorm was a terrible experience,” he said. “There was nothing to be done.

“被困在沙尘暴中是一种很可怕的经历,”他说,“什么也干不了,

It was the most frightening and the most dangerous situation I've ever been in. You

just had to hope you'd survive. I thought I was going to disappear under the sand.”

那是我遭遇过的最可怕、最危险的境况,你只能希望自己能够幸存,我原以为我会消失在沙石底下。”

Northwest China is part of the sandstorm centre in Central Asia. Sandstorms begin in desert areas.

中国西北是亚洲中央沙尘暴中心的一部分。沙尘暴开始于沙漠地带,Sandstorms in China appear to have increased in recent years as a result of “desertification”.

近年来因为“沙漠化”,中国发生沙尘暴的次数明显增加了。

This is a process that happens when land becomes desert because of climate changes and because people cut down trees and dig up grass.

这是发生在由于气候变化以及人们砍伐树木、开垦草地等使得陆地变成沙漠时的过程。

Sandstorms sometimes affect Beijing. Citizens wake up to an orange sky and strong winds that cover the city in a thick, brown-yellow dust.

有时候沙尘暴会影响北京,市民醒来时,发现昏黄的天空,狂风夹着黄沙在城里肆虐。

The storms sometimes continue all day and traffic moves very slowly because the thick dust makes it difficult to see.

暴风有时持续一整天,因为浓密的尘土降低了能见度,所以车辆等开得很慢。The Chinese Central Weather Station can forecast a sandstorm some weeks before it arrives in Beijing, but the strength of the storm sometimes surprises people.

中国中央气象台在沙尘暴到达北京前的几个星期就能预见到,但是风暴的威力有时是惊人的。

When a sandstorm arrives in the city, weather experts advise people not to go out. Huang Xiaomei, who lives in Beijing says,

当沙尘暴到达一个城市时,专家会建议人们不要出门。居住在北京的黄小梅说;“To be cycling in a sandstorm is frightening. The winds are very strong. It's difficult to breathe and the dust makes me ill. So if you want to go out, you'd better wear a mask.”

“在沙尘暴中骑车是很可怕的,风力非常强,很难呼吸,而且尘土会让我得病,所以如果你想出门,最好带上面罩。”

The desert is only 250 kilometres away to the west of Beijing. To prevent it coming nearer, the government is planting trees.

沙漠位于北京西边距离北京仅仅250千米,为了防止沙漠进一步向北京延伸,政府正在植树。

Already the government has planted more than 30 billion trees and plans to continue planting for the next five years.

目前政府已经种了超过三十亿棵树,而且计划在接下来的五年中继续植树。

5.必修三MODULE 5 Philosophers of Ancient China中国古代的哲学家

Ancient China was a place where states were often at war with each other. But it was also a time when there were many great philosophers. Confucius(551BC-479BC) is the philosopher whose influence has been the greatest.

古代中国各诸侯国之间经常发生战争。但那也是一个产生了许多哲学家的时期。孔子(公元前551--公元前479)是影响最大的哲学家。

He stressed the importance of kindness, duty and order in society. Chinese society was influenced by these ideas for more than 2,000 years.

他强调了仁爱、责任和社会秩序的重要性。中国社会受孔子学说的影响已长达两千多年。

Mencius was a thinker whose teachings were very similar to those of Confucius. Mencius was born in 372 BC.

孟子是一位思想家,他的理论和孔子的理论很相似。孟子生于公元前372年,His father died when he was young, and he was brought up by his mother, He became a student of Confucius's ideas, and was then given an important position in the government of a state.

自小就丧父,他母亲把他抚养成人。他成为儒家弟子,并在一个国家政府谋得很重要的职位。

However, when he saw that the ruler was not following his advice, he resigned. For many years he travelled from state to state, teaching the principles of Confucius. He then became an adviser to another ruler.

但是当他发现统治者并不听从他的建议时,他辞职了。好几年的时间,他周游列国,宣扬儒家学说。然后他又成为了另一个统治者的顾问。

He spent his last years preparing a book of his teachings called The Book of Mencius. 他晚年一直在准备记载他自己学说的书《孟子》。

Mencius believed that the reason why man is different from animals is that man is good.

孟子认为人区别于动物的本质就是人是性善的。

He taught that if the government was kind, then people would be good. He believed that people were more important than rulers, and hated the state when it treated people badly.

他主张“仁政”、“王道”,提倡“民为重,君为轻”,反对暴政。

Mozi was another teacher who was very influential. Born in 476 BC, he came from a family which was very poor.

墨子是又一位极具影响力的先哲。墨子于公元前476年出生于一个贫苦家庭。He became famous for his unusual clothes and behaviour. Mozi founded the philosophy called Mohism.

他因为不同寻常的服装和行为举止而出名。墨子创立了墨家学派,

In some ways, his beliefs were similar to those of Confucius. For example, he considered that government was most important. As a result, he spent many years trying to find a state where people would follow his teachings.

他的理论在某些方面和孔子的理论相似。例如,他认为统治非常重要,因此他花了好多年努力寻找一个人们愿意听从他的理论的国家。

Mozi believed that all men were equal. His idea of love was different from the Confucian idea of kindness.

墨子认为人人都是平等的,他主张的“兼爱”与孔子的“仁爱”不同。

Mozi taught that we should love all human beings and look after those who are weaker than ourselves. He hated the idea of war. Mozi died in 390 BC.

墨子认为我们必须爱护所有的人,照顾比我们弱小的人。墨子反对统治者发动的侵略战争。墨子逝世于公元前390年。

新人教版高中英语课文译文 必修三 第一单元世界各地的节日 Reading 节日和庆典 自古以来,世界各地就有各种各样的节日和庆典。最古老的节日总是庆祝严寒的结束、春季的种植和秋天的收割。有时,在猎人捕获猎物后,也举行庆祝活动。在那个时代,如果食物难以找到,特别是在寒冷的冬月,人们就会挨饿。现在的节日有很多由来,一些是宗教上的,一些是季节性的,一些是纪念特殊的人和事件的。 亡灵节 有些节日,是为了纪念死者,或使祖先得到满足,因为祖先们有可能回到世上(给人们)提供帮助,也有可能带来危害。在日本的盂兰盆节,人们要扫墓、烧香,以缅怀祖先。他们还点起灯笼,奏响乐曲,因为他们认为这样做可以把祖先引回到世上。在墨西哥,亡灵节是在11月初。在这个重要的节庆日子里,人们会吃制成颅骨形状的食物和装点有“骨头”的蛋糕。他们向亡者祭献食物、鲜花和礼品。西方节日万圣节也源自人们古老的信念,认为亡者的灵魂会返回人间。万圣节如今成了孩子们的节日,这天他们可以乔装打扮上邻居家要糖吃。如果邻居什么糖也不给,那么孩子们就可以捉弄他们了。 纪念名人的节日 也有纪念名人的节日。中国的端午节(龙舟节)是纪念古代著名诗人屈

原的。美国的哥伦布日是纪念克里斯托弗.哥伦布发现“新大陆”的日子。印度 在10月2日有个全国性节日,纪念莫汉达斯.甘地,他是帮助印度脱离英国 而独立的领袖。 庆丰收的节日 收获与感恩节是十分喜庆的节日。越冬的粮食收集起来了,农活结束了,人们都心怀感激。在欧洲国家,人们通常用花果来装饰教堂和市政厅,在一 起聚餐。有些人还可能因为他们的农产品(参加各种评选)而获奖,比如最 大的西瓜或最帅的公鸡。中国和日本都有中秋节,这时人们会赏月。在中国,人们还品尝月饼。 春天的节日 最富生气而又最重要的节日,就是告别冬天、迎来春天的日子。中国人 过春节要吃饺子、鱼和肉,还要给孩子们送红纸包着的压岁钱。(他们)舞 龙灯、狂欢,全家人聚在一起欢庆阴历年。在一些西方国家有激动人心的狂 欢节,通常在二月,复活节前的四十天。狂欢节期间,人们穿着各种艳丽的 节日盛装,伴随着鼓噪的音乐,在街头游行,昼夜跳舞。复活节是全世界基 督徒的一个重要的宗教和公众节日。它庆祝耶稣复活,也欢庆春天和新生命 的到来。再晚些时候,日本就迎来了樱花节,(节日里)整个国度到处是盛 开的樱花。看上去就像覆盖了一层粉红色的雪。 人们喜欢聚在一起吃、喝、玩耍。节日让我们享受生活,让我们为自己的习俗而自豪,还可以暂时忘掉工作中的烦恼。 Using Language 一段伤心的爱情故事 李方的心都碎了。这天是情人节,胡瑾说她下班后会在咖啡馆和他见面

第一单元友谊 Reading 安妮最好的朋友 你是不是想有一位无话不谈能推心置腹的朋友呢?或者你是不是担心你的朋友会嘲笑你,会不理解你目前的困境呢?安妮·弗兰克想要的是第一种类型的朋友,于是她就把日记当成了她最好的朋友。 安妮在第二次世界大战期间住在荷兰的阿姆斯特丹。她一家人都是犹太人,所以他们不得不躲藏起来,否则他们就会被德国纳粹抓去。她和她的家人躲藏了两年之后才被发现。在这段时间里,她唯一的忠实朋友就是她的日记了。她说,“我不愿像大多数人那样在日记中记流水账。我要把这本日记当作我的朋友,我要把我这个朋友称作基蒂”。安妮自从1942年7月起就躲藏在那儿了,现在,来看看她的心情吧。 亲爱的基蒂: 我不知道这是不是因为我长久无法出门的缘故,我变得对一切与大自然有关的事物都无比狂热。我记得非常清楚,以前,湛蓝的天空、鸟儿的歌唱、月光和鲜花,从未令我心迷神往过。自从我来到这里,这一切都变了。 ……比方说,有天晚上天气很暖和,我熬到11点半故意不睡觉,为的是独自好好看看月亮。但是因为月光太亮了,我不敢打开窗户。还有一次,就在五个月以前的一个晚上,我碰巧在楼上,窗户是开着的。我一直等到非关窗不可的时候才下楼去。漆黑的夜晚,风吹雨打,雷电交加,我全然被这种力量镇住了。这是我一年半以来第一次目睹夜晚…… ……令人伤心的是……我只能透过脏兮兮的窗帘观看大自然,窗帘悬挂在沾满灰尘的窗前,但观看这些已经不再是乐趣,因为大自然是你必须亲身体验的。

Using Language Reading, listening and writing 亲爱的王小姐: 我同班上的同学有件麻烦事。我跟我们班里的一位男同学一直相处很好,我们常常一起做家庭作业,而且很乐意相互帮助。我们成了非常好的朋友。可是,其他同学却开始在背后议论起来,他们说我和这位男同学在谈恋爱,这使我很生气。我不想中断这段友谊,但是我又讨厌人家背后说闲话。我该怎么办呢?Reading and writing 尊敬的编辑: 我是苏州高中的一名学生。我有一个难题,我不太善于同人们交际。虽然我的确试着去跟班上的同学交谈,但是我还是发现很难跟他们成为好朋友。因此,有时候我感到十分孤独。我确实想改变这种现状,但是我却不知道该怎么办。如果您能给我提些建议,我会非常感激的。 第二单元世界上的英语 Reading 通向现代英语之路 16世纪末期大约有5百万到7百万人说英语,几乎所有这些人都生活在英国。后来,在17世纪英国人开始航海征服了世界其它地区。于是,许多别的国家开始说英语了。如今说英语的人比以往任何时候都多,他们有的是作为第一语言来说,有的是作为第二语言或外语。 以英语作为母语的人,即使他们所讲的语言不尽相同,也可以互相交流。请看以下例子: 英国人贝蒂:“请到我的公寓(flat)里来看看,好吗?” 美国人艾米:“好的。我很乐意到你的公寓(apartment)去。” 那么,英语在一段时间里为什么会起变化呢?事实上,当不同文化互相交流渗透时,所有的语言都会有所发展,有所变化。首先,在公元450年到1150年间,人们所说的英语跟今天所说的英语就很不一样。当时的英语更多地是以德语

必修4 Unit 1 A STUDENT OF AFRICAN WILDLIFE It is 5:45 am and the sun is just rising over Gombe National Park in East Africa. Following Jane's way of studying chimps, our group are all going to visit them in the forest. Jane has studied these families of chimps for many years and helped people understand how much they behave like humans. Watching a family of chimps wake up is our first activity of the day. This means going back to the place where we left the family sleeping in a tree the night before. Everybody sits and waits in the shade of the trees while the family begins to wake up and move off. Then we follow as they wander into the forest. Most of the time, chimps either feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. Jane warns us that our group is going to be very tired and dirty by the afternoon and she is right. However, the evening makes it all worthwhile. We watch the mother chimp and her babies play in the tree. Then we see them go to sleep together in their nest for the night. We realize that the bond between members of a chimp family is as strong as in a human family. Nobody before Jane fully understood chimp behaviour. She spent years observing and recording their daily activities. Since her childhood she had wanted to work with animals in their own environment. However, this was not easy. When she first arrived in Gombe in 1960, it was unusual for a woman to live in the forest. Only after her mother came to help her for the first few months was she allowed to begin her project. Her work changed the way people think about chimps. For example, one important thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat. Until then everyone had thought chimps ate only fruit and nuts. She actually observed chimps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it. She also discovered how chimps communicate with each other, and her study of their body language helped her work out their social system. For forty years Jane Goodall has been outspoken about making the rest of the world understand and respect the life of these animals. She has argued that wild animals should be left in the wild and not used for entertainment or advertisements. She has helped to set up special places where they can live safely. She is leading a busy life but she says: "Once I stop, it all comes crowding in and I remember the chimps in laboratories. It's terrible. It affects me when I watch the wild chimps. I say to myself, 'Aren't they lucky?" And then I think about small chimps in cages though they have done nothing wrong. Once you have seen that you can never forget ..." She has achieved everything she wanted to do: working with animals in their own environment, gaining a doctor's degree and showing that women can live in the forest as men can. She inspires those who want to cheer the achievements of women. WHY NOT CARRY ON HER GOOD WORK? I enjoyed English, biology, and chemistry at school, but which one should I choose to study at university? I did not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great women of China. By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi, a specialist in women's diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983. It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career, travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them

Unit 5 Canada-"The True North" 李黛予和她表妹刘倩要去加拿大大西洋海岸的蒙特利尔市看望她们的表兄妹们。她们不想一路乘飞机,她们决定飞到温哥华,再从西海岸乘火车横穿加拿大到达东海岸。要横贯整个大陆的想法很是令人兴奋。 她们的朋友林丹尼在机场等候她们。他要带着她们和行李到火车站乘坐横穿加拿大的“真北方”号列车。在去火车站的路上,林丹尼聊起了她们的旅程:“你们沿途将会看到美丽壮阔的风景。向东一直走,你们会经过一座座山脉,上千个湖泊、森林,还有宽阔的河流和许多大城市。有人想在不到五天的时间里横穿加拿大,他们忘了加拿大从东海岸到西海岸共有5,500公里。这儿,温哥华,是加拿大最温暖的地方。人们说温哥华是加拿大最美丽的城市,被大山和太平洋环抱。落基山可以滑雪,海港供你扬帆,这些使得温哥华成为加拿大最受欢迎的居住城市之一。这个城市的人口增长很快。在温哥华北面的海岸上保存了最古老、最美丽的森林。那儿的湿度很大,所以树都长得特别高,一些高达90多米。” 那天下午表姐俩才登上了火车落了座。火车先是穿越落基山脉,她们设法看到了野山羊,甚至还看到了一只大灰熊和一只鹰。她们的下一站就是卡尔加里,这个城市因“大西部赛马会”而闻名。来自世界各地的牛仔们来参加赛马会比赛。他们中许多人都有骑野马的本领,他们能赢得几千美元的奖金。 两天以后,她们开始意识到加拿大人烟稀少。他们在学校学过,大多数加拿大人定居在靠近美国几百英里的边境地带,加拿大的人口也就是三千万多一点儿。但是现在看到这么空旷的国家,她们很惊讶。火车穿过一个种植小麦的省份,她们看到了面积有数千英亩的农场。晚饭后她们又回到城市,位于五大湖区顶端的繁忙的港口城市桑得贝。巨大的海轮可以开到五大湖,让表姐妹俩感到吃惊。她们知道,因为有五大湖,加拿大的淡水比世界上任何其他国家都多。事实上,加拿大拥有全世界三分之一的淡水量,其中大部分都蓄在五大湖泊里。 那天夜里她们睡着了,火车越过苏必利尔湖,穿过大森林,朝南向多伦多飞驰着。 1

新人教版高中英语课文译文 必修四 第一单元卓有成就的女性 Reading 非洲野生动物研究者 清晨5点45分,太阳刚从东非的贡贝国家公园的上空升起,我们一行人准备按照简研究黑猩猩的方法去森林里拜访它们。简研究这些黑猩猩家族已经很多年了,她帮助人们了解了黑猩猩跟人类的行为是多么的相似。我们当天的首相任务就是观察黑猩猩一家是如何醒来的。这意味着我们要返回前一天晚上我们离开时黑猩猩睡觉的大树旁。大家坐在树荫下等待着,这时候黑猩猩睡醒了,准备离开。然后这群黑猩猩向森林深处漫步而去,我们尾随其后。在大部分时间里,黑猩猩或互相喂食,或彼此擦身,这在它们的家族里是爱的表达方式。简预先提醒我们,到下午的时候我们就会又脏又累。她说对了,但是到了傍晚时分我们就觉得这一切都是值得的。我们看到黑猩猩妈妈跟她的幼子们在树上玩耍,后来看见它们一起回窝里睡觉了。我们明白了黑猩猩家庭成员之间的联系像人类家庭一样紧密。 在简之前没有人完全了解黑猩猩的行为。她花了多年的时间来观察并记录黑猩猩的日常活动。从孩提时代起,简就想在动物生活的环境中研究它们。但是,这不是一件简单的事。当她1960年最初来到贡贝时。对女性来说,住进大森林还是很稀罕的事情。她母亲头几个月来帮过她的忙,这才使她得以开始自己的计划。她的工作改变了人们对黑猩猩的看法。比方说,她的一个重要发现是黑猩猩猎食动物。而在此之前,人们一直认为黑猩猩只吃水果和坚果。她曾经亲眼看到

过一群黑猩猩捕杀一只猴子,然后把它吃掉。她还发现了黑猩猩是如何交流的,而她对黑猩猩身势语的研究帮助她勾勒出黑猩猩的社会体系。 40年来,简·古道尔一直在呼吁世人了解并尊重这些动物的生活。她主张应该让野生动物留在野外生活,而不是用于娱乐或公告。她还为黑猩猩建起了可以安全生活的专门的保护区,她的生活是忙忙碌碌的,然而,正如她所说的:“我一旦停下来,所有的一切就会涌上心头。我就会想起实验室的黑猩猩,太可怕了。每当我看着野生黑猩猩时,这个念头总是萦绕着我。我会对自己说:…难道它们不幸运吗??然后我就想起了那些没有如何过错却被关在笼子里的小 黑猩猩。一旦你看到这些,你就永远不会忘记……。” 简已经得到了她想要得到的一切:在动物的栖息地工作:获得博士学位;还向世人证明女人和男人一样也能在森林里生活。她激励着人们为妇女们的成就而喝彩。 Using Language 为什么不继承她的事业? 上学时我喜欢英语、生物和化学,但是我进大学该选哪门专业呢?直到有一天晚上坐在电脑旁研究中国的伟大女性时,我才有了答案。 很偶然地,我看到了一篇关于林稚巧大夫的文章。她是妇科专家,1901年生,1983年去世。林稚巧似乎一直都在为自己选择的事业而奔忙,去国外留学,写了很多书和文章。其中有一本书引起了我的注意。这是一本小书,介绍如何从妇女怀孕到护理婴儿的过程中降低死亡率,她提出了一些可以遵循的简单的做法,保持婴儿清洁和健康,让他们远离疾病。她为什么要写这些东西呢?林稚巧认为哪些妇女会需要这些忠告呢?我仔细地看了这篇文章,了解到那是为农村妇女写的。也许是她们在遇到紧急情况时找不到医生。

But he became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly disease of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousands of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted to face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never be controlled until its cause was found. 约翰·斯洛是伦敦一位著名的医生——他的确医术精湛,因而成为照料维多利亚女王的私人医生。但他一想到要帮助那些得了霍乱的普通百姓时,他就感到很振奋。霍乱在当时是最致命的疾病,人们既不知

道它的病源,也不了解它的治疗方法。每次霍乱暴发时,就有大批惊恐的老百姓死去。约翰·斯洛想面对这个挑战,解决这个问题。他知道,在找到病源之前,霍乱疫情是无法控制的。 He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera killed people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person died. 斯洛对霍乱致人死地的两种推测都很感兴趣。一种看法是霍乱病毒在空气中繁殖着,像一股危险的气体到处漂浮,直到找到病毒的受害者为止。第二种看法是人们在吃饭的时候把这种病毒引入体内的。病从胃里发作而迅速殃及全身,患者就会很快地死去。 1 / 23 John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed evidence.

节日和庆典 自古以来,世界各地就有各种各样的节日和庆典。最古老的节日总是庆祝严寒的结束、春季的种植和秋天的收割。有时,在猎人捕获猎物后,也举行庆祝活动。在那个时代,如果食物难以找到,特别是在寒冷的冬月,人们会挨饿。现在的节日有很多由来,一些是宗教上的,一些是季节性的,一些是纪念特殊的人和事件的。 亡灵节 有些节日,是为了纪念死者,或使祖先得到满足,因为祖先们有可能回到世上(给人们)提供帮助,也有可能带来危害。在日本的盂兰盆节,人们要扫墓、烧香,以缅怀祖先。他们还点起灯笼,奏响乐曲,因为他们认为这样做可以把祖先引回到世上。在墨西哥,亡灵节是在11月初。在这个重要的节日里,人们会吃制成颅骨形状的食物,和装点有“骨头”的蛋糕。他们向亡者祭献食物、鲜花和礼品。西方节日万圣节也源自人们古老的信念,认为亡者的灵魂会返回人间。万圣节如今成了孩子们的节日,这天他们可以乔装打扮上到邻居家要糖吃。如果邻居什么糖也不给,那么孩子们就可以捉弄他们了。 纪念名人的节日 也有纪念名人的节日。中国的端午节(龙舟节),是纪念著名古代诗人屈原的。美国的哥伦布日是纪念克里斯托弗·哥伦布发现“新大陆”的日子。印度在10月2日有个全国性节日,纪念莫汉达斯·甘地,他是帮助印度脱离英国而独立的领袖。 庆丰收的节日 收获与感恩节是非常喜庆的节日。越冬的粮食收集起来了,农活结束了,人们都心怀感激。在欧洲国家,人们通常用花果来装饰教堂和市政厅,在一起聚餐。有些人还可能因为他们的农产品(参加各种评选)而获奖,比如最大的西瓜或最帅的公鸡。中国和日本都有中秋节,这时,人们会赏月。在中国,人们还品尝月饼。 春天的节日 最富生气而又最重要的节日,就是告别冬天、迎来春天的日子。中国人过春节要吃饺子、鱼和肉,还要给孩子们送红纸包着的压岁钱。(他们)舞龙灯、狂欢,全家人聚在一起欢庆阴历年。在一些西方国家有激动人心的狂欢节,通常在二月,复活节前的四十天。狂欢节期间,人们身着各种艳丽的节日盛装,伴随着鼓噪的音乐,在街头游行,昼夜跳舞。复活节是全世界基督徒的一个重要的宗教和公众节日。它庆祝耶稣复活,也欢庆春天和新生命的到来。再晚些时候,日本就迎来了樱花节,(节日里)整个国度到处是盛开的樱花,看上去就像覆盖了一层粉红色的雪。 人们喜欢聚在一起吃、喝、玩耍。节日让我们享受生活,让我们为自己的习俗而自豪,还可以暂时忘掉工作中的烦恼。 Festivals and celebrations Festivals and celebrations of all kinds have been held everywhere since ancient times. Most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn. Sometimes celebrate would be held after hunters had caught animals. At that time people would starve if food was difficult to find, especially during the cold winter months. Today’s festivals have many origins ,some religious, some seasonal, and some for special people or events. Festivals of the Dead Some festivals are held to honour the dead or to satisfy the ancestors, who might return either to help or to do harm. For the Japanese festival. Obon, people should go to clean graves and light incense in memory of their ancestors. They also light lamps and play music because they think that this will lead the ancestors back to earth. In Mexico, people celebrate the Day of the Dead in early November. On this important feast day, people eat food in the shape of skulls and cakes with

新人教版高中英语课文译文 必修五 第一单元伟大的科学家 Reading约翰.斯诺击败“霍乱王” 约翰 .斯诺是伦敦一位著名的医生—他的确医术精湛,因而成为照料维多利亚女皇的私人医生。但当他一想到要帮助那些得了霍乱的普通百姓时,他就感到 很振奋。霍乱在当时是最致命的疾病,人们既不知道它的病源,也不了解它的治 疗方法。每次暴发霍乱时,就有大批惊恐的老百姓病死。约翰.斯诺想面对这个 挑战,解决这个问题。他知道,在找到病源之前,霍乱疫情是无法控制的。 斯诺对霍乱致人死地的两种推测都很感兴趣。一种看法是霍乱病毒在空气中 腐殖着,像一股危险的气流到处漂浮,直到找到病毒的受害者为止。第二种看法 是在吃饭的时候人们把这种病毒引入体内的。病从胃里发作而迅速殃及全身,患者就会很快地死去。 斯诺推测第二种说法是正确的,但是他需要证据。因此,在1854 年伦敦再次暴发霍乱的时候,约翰.斯诺着手准备对此调研。当霍乱在贫民区迅速蔓延的 时候,约翰 .斯诺就开始收集资料。他发现特别在两条街道上霍乱流行的很严重, 在 10 天之内就死去了 500 多人。他决心要查明其原因。 首先,他在一张地图上标明了所有死者住过的地方。这提供了一条说明霍乱起因的很有价值的线索。许多死者是住在宽街的水泵附近(特别是这条街上16、 37、38、 40 号)。他发现有些住宅(如宽街上20 号和 21 号以及剑桥上的 8 号 和 9 号)却无人死亡。他以前没预料到这种情况,所以他决定深入调查。他发现,

这些人都在剑桥街7 号的酒馆里打工,而酒馆为他们免费提供啤酒喝,因此他们没有喝从宽街水泵抽上来的水。看来水是罪魁祸首。 接下来,约翰 .斯诺调查了这两条街的水源情况。他发现,水是从河里来的,而河水被伦敦排出的脏水污染了。他马上叫宽街上惊慌失措的老百姓拆掉水泵上 的把手。这样,水泵就用不成了。不久,疫情就开始得到了缓解。他证明了,霍 乱是由病菌而不是由气团传播的。 在伦敦的另一个地区,他从两个与宽街暴发的霍乱有关联的死亡病例中发现了有力的证据。有一位妇女是从宽街搬进来的,她特备喜欢那里的水,每天都要派人从水泵打水运到家里来。她和她的女儿喝了这种水,都得了霍乱而死去。有了这个特别的证据,约翰.斯诺就能够肯定地宣布,这种被污染了的水携带着病 菌。 为了防止这种情况的再度发生,约翰.斯诺建议所有水源都要经过检测。自来水公司也接到指令,不能再让人们接触被污染的水了。最终,“霍乱王”被打败 了。 Using Language 哥白尼的革命性理论 尼古拉 .哥白尼被吓得心烦意乱。虽然他曾经试着不去理睬那些数字,然而他所有的数学计算都得出了一个相同的结论:地球不是太阳系的中心。只有当你把太阳放在中心位置上,天空中其他行星的运动才能说得清楚。他的这个理论可 不能告诉任何人,因为即使他只暗示有这种想法,他都会收到强大的基督教教会 势力的惩罚。教会认为世界是上帝创造的,正因为如此,地球就具有特殊的意义, 它必定要成为太阳系的中心。 这样,问题就来了,因为天文学家以前发现过,天上有些行星停顿下来,往
