我的工作是世界上最伟大的工作。我跑的地方是稀罕奇特的地方,我见到的是世界各地有趣味的人们,有时在室外工作,有时在办公室里,有时工作中要用科学仪器,有时要会见当地百姓和旅游人士。但是我从不感到厌烦。虽然我的工作偶尔也有危险,但是我并不在乎,因为危险能激励我,使我感到有活力。然而,最重要的是,通过我的工作能保护人们免遭世界最大的自然威力之一,也就是火山的威胁。

我是一名火山学家,在夏威夷火山观测站(HVO)工作。我的主要任务是收集有关基拉韦厄火山的信息,这是夏威夷最活跃的火山之一。收集和评估了这些信息之后,我就帮助其他科学家一起预测下次火山熔岩将往何处流,流速是多少。我们的工作拯救了许多人的生命,因为熔岩要流经之地,老百姓都可以得到离开家园的通知。遗憾的是,我们不可能把他们的家搬离岩浆流过的地方,因此,许多房屋被熔岩淹没,或者焚烧殆尽。当滚烫沸腾的岩石从火山喷发出来并撞回地面时,它所造成的损失比想象的要小些,这是因为在岩石下落的基拉韦厄火山顶附近无人居住。而顺着山坡下流的火山熔岩造成的损失却大得多,这是因为火山岩浆所流经的地方,一切东西都被掩埋在熔岩下面了。然而火山喷发本身的确是很壮观的,我永远也忘不了我第一次看见火山喷发时的情景。那是在我到达夏威夷后的第二个星期。那天辛辛苦苦地干了一整天,我很早就上床睡觉。我在熟睡中突然感到床铺在摇晃,接着我听到一阵奇怪的声音,就好像一列火车从我的窗外行驶一样。因为我在夏威夷曾经经历过多次地震,所以对这种声音我并不在意。我刚要再睡,突然我的卧室亮如白昼。我赶紧跑出房间,来到后花园,在那儿我能远远地看见基拉韦厄火山。在山坡上,火山爆发了,红色发烫的岩浆像喷泉一样,朝天上喷射达几百米高。真是绝妙的奇景!

就在这次火山喷发的第二天,我有幸做了一次近距离的观察。我和另外两位科学被送到山顶,在离火山爆发期间形成的火山口最靠近的地方才下车。早先从观测站出发时,就带了一些特制的安全服,于是我们穿上安全服再走近火山口。我们三个人看上去就像宇航员一样,我们都穿着白色的防护服遮住全身,戴上了头盔和特别的手套,还穿了一双大靴子。穿着这些衣服走起路来实在不容易,但我们还是缓缓往火山口的边缘走去,并且向下看到了红红的沸腾的中心。另外,两人攀下火山口,去收集供日后研究用的岩浆,我是第一次经历这样的事,所以留在山顶上观察他们

Unit 9 How to Grow Old 课文翻译

Unit 9 How to Grow Old Bertrand A. Russell 1. In spite of the title, this article will really be on how not to grow old, which, at my time of life, is a much more important subject. My first advice would be, to choose your ancestors carefully. Although both my parents died young, I have done well in this respect as regards my other ancestors. My maternal grandfather, it is true, was cut off in the flower of his youth at the age of sixty-seven, but my other three grandparents all lived to be over eighty. Of remoter ancestors I can only discover one who did not live to a great age, and he died of a disease which is now rare, namely, having his head cut off. A great-grandmother of mine, who was a friend of Gibbon, lived to the age of ninety-two, and to her last day remained a terror to all her descendants. My maternal grandmother, after having nine children who survived, one who died in infancy, and many miscarriages, as soon as she became a widow devoted herself to women’s higher education. She was one of the founders of Girton College, and worked hard at opening the medical profession to women. She used to relate how she met in Italy an elderly gentleman who was looking very sad. She inquired the cause of his melancholy and he said that he had just parted fro m his two grandchildren. “Good gracious,” she exclaimed, “I have seventy-two grandchildren, and if I were sad each time I parted from one of them, I should have a dismal existence!” “Madre snaturale,” he replied. But speaking as one of the seventy-two, I prefer her recipe. After the age of eighty she found she had some difficulty in getting to sleep, so she habitually spent the hours from midnight to 3 a.m. in reading popular science. I do not believe that she ever had time to notice that she was growing old. This, I think, is the proper recipe for remaining young. If you have wide and keen interests and activities in which you can still be effective, you will have no reason to think about the merely statistical fact of the number of years you have already lived, still less of the probable brevity of your future. 2. As regards health, I have nothing useful to say since I have little experience of illness. I eat and drink whatever I like, and sleep when I cannot keep awake. I never do anything whatever on the ground that it is good for health, though in actual fact the things I like doing are mostly wholesome. 3. Psychologically there are two dangers to be guarded against in old age. One of these is undue absorption in the past. It does not do to live in memories, in regrets for the good old days, or in sadness about friends who are dead. One’s thoughts must be directed to

Unit7TheChaser练习的答案解析综合教程三

Unit 7 The Chaser Key to the Exercises Text comprehension I. Decide which of the following is likely to happen after the story. C II. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false. 1. F (Refer to Paragraph 5. The old man says that his stock in trade is not very large, but it is varied and has extraordinary effects.) 2. F (Refer to Paragraphs 11 and 1 3. The price of a glove-cleaner, as he calls it, is very high, five thousand dollars for a teaspoonful, but the love potion is very cheap.) 3. F (Refer to Paragraph 19. The old man claims that the effects of love potions are permanent.) 4. T (Refer to Paragraphs 24 and 28. Austen says that Diana is fond of parties and, although she is everything to him already, she does not care about his love at all. That is why he decides to go to the old man for the love potion and whenever the old man mentions the magic of his potion, he can't help "crying." From that, we can see the man loves the girl very much.) 5. F (The old man sells the love potions almost for nothing because by doing so his customers will come back for a much dearer commodity, the glove-cleaner, to help them out. It is the "death potion" that the old man makes most of his profits from, and intends to sell to his customers.) III. Answer the following questions. 1. What the old man means is that a young man who falls in love one-sidedly is seldom rich enough to win a girl's heart. His words imply that money is one of the crucial factors for love. If a man is not rich, he can rarely expect to be loved by a girl. 2. Refer to Paragraphs 19 to 37. The love potion has powerful, everlasting effects. To begin with, it may produce sexual desire in the person who takes it. And on the spiritual side, it can replace indifference with devotion and scorn with adoration. It will make a gay girl want nothing but solitude and her lover's company. She will feel jealous of him when her lover is with other girls; she will want to be everything to him. She will be only interested in her lover and take every concern of him. Even if he slips a bit, she will forgive him though terribly hurt. In a word, she will fall in love with him if she drinks the love potion. 3. Refer to Paragraphs 39 to 43. It is an irony, by which the author seems to imply that love is far from being precious or desirable. It is easy for a man to fall in love, yet it is hard

The Delicate Art of the Forest 库珀的创造天分并不怎么样;但是他似乎热衷于此并沾沾自喜。确实,他做了一些令人感到愉快的事情。在小小的道具箱内,他为笔下的森林猎人和土人准备了七八种诡计或圈套,这些人以此诱骗对方。利用这些幼稚的技巧达到了预期的效果,没有什么更让他高兴得了。其中一个就是他最喜欢的,就是让一个穿着鹿皮靴的人踩着穿着鹿皮靴敌人的脚印,借以隐藏了自己行踪。这么做使库珀磨烂不知多少桶鹿皮靴。他常用的另一个道具是断树枝。他认为断树枝效果最好,因此不遗余力地使用。在他的小说中,如果哪章中没有人踩到断树枝惊着两百码外的印第安人和白人,那么这一节则非常平静/那就谢天谢地了。每次库珀笔下的人物陷入危险,每分钟绝对安静的价格是4美元/一分静一分金,这个人肯定会踩到断树枝。尽管附近有上百种东西可以踩,但这都不足以使库珀称心。他会让这个人找一根干树枝;如果找不到,就去借一根。事实上,《皮袜子故事系列丛书》应该叫做《断树枝故事集》。 很遗憾,我没有足够的篇幅,写上几十个例子,看看奈迪·班波和其他库伯专家们是怎样运用他的森林中的高招。大概我们可以试着斗胆举它两三个例子。库伯曾经航过海—当过海军军官。但是他却一本正经/煞有介事地告诉我们,一条被风刮向海岸遇险的船,被船长驶向一个有离岸暗流的地点而得救。因为暗流顶着风,把船冲了回来。看看这森林术,这行船术,或者叫别的什么术,很高明吧?库珀在炮兵部队里待过几年,他应该注意到炮弹落到地上时,要么爆炸,要么弹起来,跳起百英尺,再弹再跳,直到跳不动了滚几下。现在某个地方他让几个女性—他总是这么称呼女的—在一个迷雾重重的夜晚,迷失在平原附近一片树林边上—目的是让班波有机会向读者展示他在森林中的本事。这些迷路的人正在寻找一个城堡。他们听到一声炮响,接着一发炮弹就滚进树林,停在他们脚下。对女性,这毫无价值。但对可敬的班波就完全不同了。我想,如果班波要是不马上冲出来,跟着弹痕,穿过浓雾,跨过平原,找到要塞,我就再也不知道什么是“和平”了。是不是非常聪明?如果库伯不是对自然规律一无所知,他就是故意隐瞒事实。比方说,他的精明的印地安专家之一,名叫芝稼哥(我想,该读作芝加哥)的,跟踪一个人,在穿过树林的时候,脚印就找不到了。很明显,脚印是再也没法找到了。无论你还是我,都猜不出,怎么会

北京理工大学翻硕(MTI)考研应用文写作复习方法及指导

北京理工大学翻硕(MTI)考研应用文写 作复习方法及指导 有无目标是成功者与平庸者的根本差别。凯程北京理工大学翻译硕士老师给大家详细讲解所遇到的问题。特别申明,以下信息绝对准确,凯程就是王牌的北京理工大学翻译硕士考研机构! 一、北京理工大学翻译硕士考研复习指导 1.基础英语: 基础英语选择题考的特别细致,没有专门的教材,还是重在平时积累,凯程老师在讲课过程中特别重视对于考生基础知识的积累。凯程老师会对考生的阅读理解进行系统的训练。阅读理解也是偏政治,凯程老师会重点训练同学的答题速度,培养同学们阅读答题技巧,针对作文这方面,凯程老师也会对考生进行一系列的训练,让同学们勤加练习,多做模拟作文。 2.翻译英语: 翻译硕士基础这门课是需要下功夫的,英汉词条互译的部分完全需要你的积累,主要是词汇量和分析抓取能力。凯程老师会对学生的这两个方面进行很完善的训练。 凯程老师总结了以下提升翻译技巧的方法,供考研学子参考。 词组互译:大多考的都很常见,所以多看看中英文的报纸还是有好处的。 英汉:对文章的背景有一定的了解是最好的,如果没有,就需要体现出自身的翻译素养。翻译也要注意文风,语气之类的,要符合原文的风格。 凯程老师也很重视答题技巧,在此凯程名师友情提示大家,最好在开头就能让老师看到你的亮点,不管怎样至少留下个好印象。不管风格怎么变,翻译功底扎实,成绩都不会太差。所以还是提高自己翻译水平,才能以不变应万变。 3.百科: 先说说名词解释。这道题考得知识面很全,可能涉及到天文、地理、历史、法律、政治、中外文学、中外文化、音乐、翻译专有名词等,准备起来比较棘手,但是凯程老师会给学生准备好知识库,方便学生复习。百科的准备,一要广泛,二要抓重点,尤其要重视学校的参考书目,同时凯程也会提供凯程自己的教材及讲义来帮助大家。 接下来是应用文写作。其实这个根本不用担心,常出的无非是那几个:倡议书、广告、感谢信、求职信、计划书、说明书等,到12月份再看也不晚。但要注意一点,防止眼高手低,貌似很简单,真到写的时候却写不出来,所以还是需要练习的,凯程老师会在学生复习过程中对应用文的写作进行系统的训练。另外,考试的时候也要注意格式、合理性,如果再加上点文采,无异于锦上添花。 最后说说大作文。这个让很多同学担心,害怕到考场上无素材可写,或者语言生硬,拼凑一篇,毕竟大学四年,写作文的机会很少,早没有手感了。所以,凯程老师会针对这种情况,让考生从复习开始时,就进行写作训练,同时也会为考生准备好素材。 最后,注意考场上字体工整,不要乱涂乱画,最好打上横线,因为答题纸一般是白纸。 二、北京理工大学翻译硕士考研的复习方法解读 (一)、参考书的阅读方法 (1)目录法:先通读各本参考书的目录,对于知识体系有着初步了解,了解书的内在逻辑结构,然后再去深入研读书的内容。 (2)体系法:为自己所学的知识建立起框架,否则知识内容浩繁,容易遗忘,最好能
