Unit 6

Unit Six

Getting Along with Nature

I. Language points

Para 1

1. The defenders of nature and wilderness -- like their enemies the defenders of the industrial economy -- sometimes sound as if the natural and the human estates were two separate estates, radically different and radically divided.

the natural and the human estates = the natural and human worlds/realms.

divided = separated into parts or pieces; disagreeing 截然分开的, 有分歧的.

It sometimes seems that both the defenders of nature and wilderness and the defenders of industrial economy give the impression that the condition or environment of animals, plants and other living creatures is totally different from that of humans and that they are not connected or don not affect each other in any way.

正如他们的对立面也就是工业经济的捍卫者一样，自然与荒野的捍卫者说起话来好像自然与人类相互独立，完全不同，彻底分开。

2. The defenders of nature and wilderness sometimes seem to feel that they must oppose any human encroachment whatsoever, just as the industrialists often apparently feel that they must make the human encroachment absolute or, as they say, "complete the conquest of nature."

whatsoever= whatever = no matter what 无论什么，无论怎样( This is a postpositive adjective(后置形容词) used as an intensifier in a negative sentence or in a sentence with indefinite pronouns and determiners such as any, anybody, none, e.g.: Political factors played no part whatsoever in this decision. / He showed no intention whatsoever of resigning.

The defenders of nature and wilderness sometimes seem to feel that they must object to any human activities of occupying more of nature and wilderness, just as the industrialists often seem to feel that they must make a total human occupying of nature or, as they say, …complete the conquest of nature?.

看起来，自然与荒野的捍卫者有时会感到他们必须反对任何人类侵占，就像工业家明显地感到必须保持人类侵占的绝对性，或者就如他们所说，“彻底征服自然”。

3. But there is danger in this opposition, and it can be best dealt with by

realizing that these pure and separate categories are pure ideas and do not otherwise exist.

But there is danger in this conflict (between two kinds of defenders),and this conflict can be best handled by realizing that these unmixed natural and human estates which are supposedly divided from each other are really nothing but mental images which do not exist in other respects.

但是这种对立中存在着危险，而处理它最好的方法就是意识到这种别类区分纯粹只是理论上的概念，实际上并不存在。

Para 2

1. Any exposure to the elements that lasts more than a few hours will

remind us of the desirability of the basic human amenities: clothing, shelter, cooked food, the company of kinfolk and friends --- perhaps even of hot baths and music and books.

elements = atmospheric forces, as rain, wind, or snow; bad weather 自然力

If we experience bad weather in pure for more than a few hours, we?ll long for what can make our life easy and comfortable, such as clothing, a house, cooked food, the company of relatives and friends – perhaps even for a hot bath and music and books.

连续数小时暴露于任何自然环境中将会引起我们对人类基本的生活福利设施的向往：衣服、藏身之处、烹饪的食物、亲友的陪伴――甚至也许会想到热水澡、音乐和书籍。

Para 4

1. People cannot live apart from nature; that is the first principle of the

conservationists.

conservationist自然环境保护论者

Humans cannot live separate from nature, which is the primary idea that the conservationists put forth.

人们的生活离不开自然，这是自然资源保护论者的第一原则。

2. But this is true of all creatures; they depend upon nature, and they

change it.

be true of = be applicable to sth/sb 符合于、适用

But what we discussed above (People cannot live apart from nature and people cannot live in pure nature) is applicable to all creatures; they depend on nature, and they change it.

但对于所有生物都一样的事实是：它们依赖自然，并且改造自然。

3. What we call nature is, in a sense, the sum of the changes made by all

the various creatures and natural forces in their intricate actions and influences upon each other and upon their places.

intricate = complex, difficult to understand

What we call nature is, to some extent, the total of all of the changes made by the many creatures and natural forces (elements) put together in their various detailed actions and influences upon each other.

从某种意义上说，我们所谓的自然就是改造的总和，这些改造是由各种各样的生物和自然力量在其错综复杂的运动、相互影响以及对他们的居住地的影响中形成的。

Para 5

1. The buffalo "streets" through hilly country were so hollowed out by hoofwear and erosion that they remain visible almost two centuries after the disappearance of the buffalo.

Buffalo made path across the hilly country that became so worn by their use that they can still be clearly seen nowadays, almost 200 years after the disappearance of the buffalo.

旷野中被有蹄动物踩踏出的崎岖不平的水牛“道路”受到了风化侵蚀，以至于水牛消失几乎两个世纪后，“道路”仍然可见。

2. But unlike other creatures, humans must make a choice as to the kind

and scale of the difference they make.

But unlike other creatures, humans must carefully choose the proportion of the difference they make.

但是，与其他生物不同的是，人类必须要对自己改造自然的方式和程度做出选择。

3. If they choose to make too small a difference, they diminish their

humanity.

If they choose to make too small a change, they fail to make full use of the best qualities of being human.

如果他们决定所作的改变太小，就削弱自己的人性。

4. If they choose to make too great a difference, they diminish nature,

and narrow their subsequent choices; ultimately, they diminish or destroy themselves.

If they choose to make too great a change, they destroy natural resources and as a result they limit the number of things they can get from nature in later years; finally they hurt and destroy themselves.

如果他们决定所作的改变太大，就会破坏自然并且限制了他们以后的选择；最终他们将削弱或毁灭自己。

5. Nature, then, is not only our source but also our limit and measure. Nature not only provides us with plentiful resources but also sets the restriction on the quantity of resources we all allowed to take and use.

因此，自然不仅是我们的资源，也是我们的限制和尺度。

6. Nature, who is the "greatest goddesse", acts as a sort of earthly

lieutenant of God,

Nature is the supreme goddess of earth and acts on behalf of god to figuratively "patrol" and protect the earth.

“最伟大的女神”――自然，充当了神派往地球的官员。

7．Her jurisdiction is over the relations between the creatures; she deals “Right to all ... indifferently,” for she is “the equal mother” of all “And knittest each to each, as brother unto brother.”

jurisdiction n. = the right to use an official power to make legal decisions司法权、管辖权 e.g.: The court has no jurisdiction over foreign diplomats living in this country.

Knittest v. knit, twine together

Her rule is over all living creatures; she gives rights to all creatures impartially, because she is a fair-minded mother and she joins all creatures together in the same way that brother is tied to brother.

由她对生物之间的关系进行裁决。她是众生“提供均等机会的母亲”，她给众生“公正地分配权力”，“把人们好像兄弟一样紧密地团结在一起”。

8. Thus, in Spenser, the natural principles of fertility and order are

pointedly linked with the principle of justice, which we may be a little surprised to see that he attributes also to nature.

attribute (sth.) to (sb./sth.)把...归因于; 是...的结果; 认为是...所作（所有）

Therefore, Spenser thinks that the natural principles of fertility and order are noticeably/directly connected with the principle of justice. This linking of justice to nature may surprise us.

所以，在斯宾塞的诗中，富饶和次序的自然原则明显地与司法原则联系在一起，我们颇为惊奇地看到他也将此归于自然。

9. And yet in his insistence on an “indifferent” natural justice, resting on

the “brotherhood” of all creatures, not just of humans, Spenser would now be said to be on sound ecological footing.

rest on = base on or depend on

footing n. the conditions or arrangements under which sth exists or operates. It is usually used in such phrases as on a sound footing / on a firm footing / on a solid footing and on an equal footing or on the same footing.

We would say that if Spenser were alive today his understanding of the brotherly relationship of all creatures would qualify him as a sound environmentalist.

然而，斯宾塞所坚持的“公正”的自然原则，不仅仅基于人类，而且基于整个生物界的“手足之情”，现在，斯宾塞的观点会被认为有着坚实的生态学基础。

Para 6

1. In nature we know that wild creatures sometimes exhaust their vital

sources and suffer the natural remedy: drastic population reductions.

remedy = a medicine which can cure an illness. In the text, it refers to nature's solution (cure) to the problem

We know that when wild animals use up all of the available resources which keep them alive, they begin to die out in large numbers.

我们知道，自然界中，有时野生生物在耗尽其重要的资源时会承受大自然的补救方法：群体数量急剧减少。

2. If lynxes eat too many snowshoe rabbits—which they are said to do

repeatedly—then the lynxes starve down to the carrying capacity of their habitat.

carrying capacity = the population of any creature that an area can support (某一自然环境能容纳生物的数目/承载能力); 承运能力.

For example, when lynxes eat too many snowshoe rabbits – which is said they often do – (in consequence) their population will die off until it reaches the level where the environment can sustain them.

如果猞猁吃掉太多的雪兔――据说是重复如此――那么猞猁会由于饥饿而急剧减少到它们栖息地所能承受的数量。

3. It is the carrying capacity of the lynx's habitat, not the carrying

capacity of the lynx's stomach, that determines the prosperity of lynxes.

What determines the prosperity of lynxes is the population of other creatures on which lynxes live rather than how much they can eat.

决定猞猁繁衍旺盛与否的是猞猁栖息地的承受量而不是猞猁胃部的承受量。

4. … there is no appeal from this justice.

This justice allows no review of the case.

对这种司法没有上诉。

5. In the future, the Lord may forgive our wrongs against nature, but on

earth, so far as we know, He does not overturn her decisions.

In the future, the Lord (God) may forgive us for the poor way we have treated nature and the earth, but now, on earth, God does not alter/overthrow the decisions made by nature, the impartial judge or mother nature?s decisions are final.

将来，上帝也许会原谅我们对自然犯下的罪过，但在地球，据我们所知，上帝不会推翻自然的裁决。

Para 7

1.… another difference, we hope, is that humans have the sense to act

on their understanding.

act on: take action, do with

We hope that there is another difference between humans and lynxes – that humans have the ability to act in accordance with their own judgment.

我们希望另一个差别是人类能意识到要按照他们的判断力行事。

2.We can see, too, that a stable balance is preferable to a balance that

tilts back and forth like a seesaw, dumping a surplus of creatures alternately from either end.

tilts back and forth like a seesaw （像跷跷板那样跷来跷去）.

alternately adv. by turn; first the one and then the other.

We can also understand that a stable balance is better than an unstable one, which moves back and forth like a seesaw, sliding off a surplus of creatures alternately from one end or the other.

我们也明白，比起那种像跷跷板一样前后失衡，需要从一端甩掉其他过剩生物的平衡，这种稳定的平衡更为可取。

3. To say this is to renew the question of whether or not the human relationship with nature is necessarily an adversary relationship, and it is to suggest that the answer is not simple.

To say this is to raise again the question of whether the relationship between humans and nature is always a hostile one or not, and it is to indicate that the question is not easy to answer.

这么说就是要重申一个问题，即人类与自然的关系是否必然是敌对关系，这也表明答案并不简单。

Para 8

1. But in dealing with this question and in trying to do justice to the

presumed complexity of the answer, we are up against an American convention of simple opposition to nature that is deeply established both in our minds and in our ways.

presumed adj. = supposed

But in attempting to answer the question and justify all of the complicated aspects of this issue, we encounter the American belief that man must fight against nature. This viewpoint is deeply rooted in our minds and behavior.

在处理这个问题以及公正对待这一假设的答案的复杂性时，我们就是在反对一个美国式的简单的与自然对抗的传统，这种传统深深扎根于我们的头脑以及我们的行为方式中。

2. And yet more and more of us are beginning to see that this opposition

is ultimately destructive even of ourselves, that it does not explain many things that need explaining—in short, that it is untrue.

But now more and more of us are beginning to realize that this opposition will eventually cause damage even to ourselves, that this opposition cannot throw

light on many things which need to be explained – in short, that this opposition is not correction.

然而我们中越来越多的人开始认识到，这种对抗最终对于我们自己也是具有毁灭性的，也认识到对抗并没有解释许多的问题――简而言之，对抗是不正确的。

Para 9

1.we have a legitimate quarrel with weeds.

We have valid reasons for fighting against weeds …

我们会对杂草进行合理的争执。

2.But, do what we will, we remain under the spell of the primeval forests

and prairies that we have cut down and broken; we turn repeatedly and with love to the thought of them and to their surviving remnants. be under the spell of= be attracted by被迷住e.g.: We were under the spell of the beautiful music.

But, no matter what we do in spite of having destroyed great forests and prairies, we still feel, respond, and are drawn to their majesty; we continue to think longingly about the destroyed ancient forests and prairies and the small pieces of wilderness that still exists.

但是，按照我们的意愿行事，我们就会受到遭原始森林以及被践踏的草原的惩罚。我们开始反复地充满爱心地想到它们和它们存活下来的残余部分。

3. They may, in fact, not always be out of place in pastures; if, as seems

evident, overgrazing makes an ideal seedbed for these plants, then we must understand them as a part of nature's strategy to protect the ground against abuse by animals.

In fact, thistles may not always be unsuitable in pastures. It seems that, if grazing too much makes an ideal seedbed for the thistles, we must regard them as a part of nature?s strat egy to protect animals from damaging the ground.

事实上，也许它们并不总是不适宜在草原上；看起来很明显，如果过度放牧能形成植物理想的苗床，那么我们必须把它们看作是大自然保护地面不被动物过度使用的策略的一部分。

4. The weeds, too, are involved in the business of fertility.

The weeds also play a part in making soil productive.

杂草也参与了使土地肥沃的进程。

Para 10

1.… that this conflict often occurs at the expense of both estates.

… that this conflict often hurts both humans and nature.

这种冲突的发生经常是以双方的损失为代价。

2.It is not only possible but altogether probable that by diminishing

nature we diminish ourselves, and vice versa.

altogether: completely

vice versa = This phrase is used when the opposite of a situation you have just described is also true. e.g.: It is strange that any book he likes, I don't, and vice versa.

It is not only possible but probable that when we reduce nature we reduce ourselves. Putting it another way, when we reduce ourselves we reduce nature.

我们破坏大自然也在毁灭自己，反之亦然，这不仅是可能而且是完全可能的。II. Key to Exercises

B. Key to the translation

A:

正如诗人埃德蒙.斯宾塞在将近四百年前所说的那样，大自然是“最伟大的女神”。她似乎担任了上帝驻地球的总督的职务。斯宾塞把她描写成一位母亲和法官。|| 她管辖着所有的生物之间的往来，并不分厚薄地给予他们权利，因为她是一位公正的母亲。她把他们紧密地联结在一起，就象兄弟姐妹。|| 因而，在斯宾塞看来，生物繁殖及生物秩序的自然规律与公正原则显而易见地是联系在一起的。当我们得知斯宾塞认为大自然也具有公正原则的时候我们或许有点吃惊。|| 然而，斯宾塞不仅以人类的手足之情而是以所有生物的手足之情为依据来坚持自然界有这么一位“公正的”法官。要是在当今，我们会说斯宾塞是以生态学作为其可靠依据的。

如果我们人类和大自然的固有关系不是相互对抗的，那么，它又是什么样的一种关系呢？|| 对我们来讲，这个变得相当复杂难解，因为正如我先前所讲过的那样，我们中没有人想在未经开发的原始森林里或在未经改造的原始大草原上生活，我们不想被大灰熊吃掉。|| 假如我们是园艺家，我们有正当的理由去抱怨园内的杂草。在肯塔基州，如果我们准备改良牧场，我们就很可能成为那一片随风摆动的大蓟的敌人。|| 但是，如果我们还随心所欲，想做什么就做什么，那么，我们就会对那些曾经被我们砍伐破坏了的原始森林和草原着迷，我们会一而再而三地想起它们，想起那些幸存的原始森林和原始草原。|| 我们还会感到大灰熊深深地吸引着我们。我们知道，在整个人类时期我们会一直想起大灰熊及其他一些危险动物。

1 Resolutions are promises to yourself. They may help to make you a better person and to make your life easier. I am going to make four resolutions. The first resolution is about my own personal improvement. Next year, or maybe sooner, I am going to take up a new hobby. I think singing is a great activity so I am going to learn to sing. I think this will also make my family happy because they love to listen to music and sing together. The second resolution is about improving my physical health. I am going to try a new sport such as ping pong and play it two or three times a week. Playing more sports will help me to become healthier and I will not fall ill so often. The third resolution is about improving my relationships with my family and friends. I am going to spend more time with my family. Maybe we can take up a new hobby together! Doing more things together with my family will make my family happy. I am also going to help my friends more. For example, I can help them with their English homework if there is anything they don’t understand. Helping my friends will show them that I care about them and that they are important to me. The last resolution is about how to do better at school. I am going to read more books in English. That is going to help me learn more English words. I know I can keep this resolution because reading is fun. 2. My New Year’s Resolutions The new year is coming, I’m making a new resolutions. Next year I’m going to improve my physical health.

How am I going to do that? First, I’m going to write articles and send them to magazines and newspapers. Second, I’m going to read more famous books about literature 4 When I grow up, I’m going to be a reporter. Next year, I’m going to write articles for magazines and newspapers. I’m going to a university in Beijing after I graduate from high school. Maybe I’m going to find a part-time job and save some money. Next, I’m going to work for a TV station as a journalist. Then I’m going to travel all over the world. 5 I want to be a writer when I grow up. I like writing stories in my free time. Writing is an important part of my life. Through writing I am able to share my ideas and make friends with others. I can achieve my dream by reading widely and by working hard at school to learn as much as possible. It’s also important to learn from successful people. I will hold on to my dream until it comes true.
