Some scientists working on the question of extraterrestrial intelligence, myself among them, have attempted to estimate the number of advanced technical civilizations -- defined operationally as societies capable of radio astronomy -- in the Milky Way Galaxy. Such estimates are little better than guesses. They require assigning numerical values to quantities such as the numbers and ages of stars; the abundance of planetary systems and the likelihood of the origin of life, which we know less well;and the probability of the evolution of intelligent life and the lifetime of technical civilizations, about which we know very little indeed.
In the last few years -- in one-millionth the lifetime of our species on this planet -- we have achieved an extraordinary technological capability which enables us to seek outunimaginably distant civilizations even if they are no more advanced than we. That capability is called radio astronomy and involves single radio telescopes, collections or arrays of radio telescopes, sensitive radio detectors, advanced computers for processing received date, and the imagination and skill of dedicated scientists. Radio astronomy has in the last decade opened a new window on the physical universe. It may also, if we are wise enough to make the effort, cast a profound light on the biologicaluniverse.

Procedures Section. The second major section of the research report details, with as much data as possible, exactly how the study was carried out. This section includes description of any necessary equipment, how the subjects were selected if subjects were used, what statistical technique was used to evaluate the significance of the findings, how many observations were made and when, etc. An investigation of the relative effectiveness of various swim-strokes would have to detail the number of swimmers tested, the nature of the tests conducted, the experience of the swimmers, the weather conditions at the time of the test, and any other factors that contributed to the overall experiment. The goal of the procedures section is to allow the reader to duplicate the experiment if such were desired to confirm, or refute, your findings.

A frequent subsection of this problem section is a review of past research on the topic being investigated. This would consist of summaries of the contributions of previous researcher to the question under consideration with someassessment of the value of these contributions. This subsection has rhetorical usefulness in that it enhances the credibility of the researcher by indicating that the data presented is based on a thorough knowledge of what has been done in the field and, possibly, grows out of some investigative tradition.
Problem Section. The first required section of a research report is the statement of the problem with which the research project is concerned. This section requires a precise statement of the underlying question which the researcher has set out to answer. In this same section there should be an explanation of the significance -- social, economic, medical, psychological, educational, etc. -- of the question; in other words, why the investigation was worth conducting. Thus, if we set out, for example, to answer the question "What is the effect of regular consumption of fast foods on the health of the American teenager?" we must explain that the question is thought to have significant relevance to the health of this segment of the population and might lead to some sort of regulations on such foods.

Since Project Ozma, there have been six or eight other such programs, all at a rather modest level, in the United States, Canada and the Soviet Union. All results have been negative. The total number of individual stars examined to date in this way is less than a thousand. We have performed something like one tenth of one percent of the required effort.
However, there are signs that much more serious efforts may be mustered in the reasonably near future. Besides, hand in handwith the recent spectacular advances in radio technology, there has been a dramatic increase in the scientific and public respectability of the entire subject of extraterrestrial life. A clear sign of the new attitude is the Viking missions to Mars, whichare to a significantextent dedicated to the search for life on another planet.

ELEMENTS OF THE RESEARCH PAPER
The standard research report, regardless of the field or the intended reader, contains four major sections. These sections may be broken down into a variety of subsections, and they may be arranged in a variety of ways, but they regularly make up the core of the report.
Results Section. The third, and perhaps most important, section of the research report is the presentation of the results obtained from the investigation. The basic rule in this section is to give all data relevant to the research question initially asked. Although, of course, one's natural tendency might be to suppress any findings which do not in some way support one's hypothesis, such dishonesty is antithetical to good research reporting in any field. If the experiments undertaken fail to prove anything, if the data was inadequate or contrary to expectations, the report should be honestly written and as complete as possible, just as it would be if the hypothesis were totally proven by the research.

新视野英语第二册课文翻译Unit6第一篇:新视野英语第二册课文翻译 Unit 6Unit 6Text A小提琴盒里的生活1为了让你了解我的信念,我必须简单地说一说我的个人历史。

2我的人生转折点是我决定放弃前途无量的经商生涯去学习音乐。

虽然父母也能理解我,但他们不同意我把音乐当作一种职业。

从我的家庭背景来看,我想这也是可以理解的。

3我的祖父在斯普林希尔学院教了近40年的音乐。

虽然他在社会上备受尊敬,可他几乎赚不到足够的钱来供养一大家子人。

我父亲经常说,多亏了我祖母勤俭持家,他们才得以勉强维持生计。

4家里有了这个先例,后来只要一提到一音乐为生,我们就想到朝不保夕的生活。

父母坚持要我上大学而不是音乐学校,所以我就上了大学.5我从哥伦比亚大学毕业之前,家里经济上出了点问题,所以我感到自己有义务离开学校去找份工作。

于是我就稀里糊涂地开始了经商生涯---我认为,那是自己一生当中的蹉跎岁月。

6当然,我一点都没有贬低经商的意思;我的意思只是说经商不适合我。

我是为了钱才去经商的,而且,除了因为能够帮助家庭而得到的满足感之外,钱就是我经商所得到的一切。

这还远远不够。

我觉得生命在离我而去。

我变得很忧伤。

我的目的就是攒够钱后停止经商,然后去欧洲学习音乐。

7我那时常常一大清早起来练琴,然后去“市中心”工作。

我不和同事们一起吃中饭,而是找一家便宜的小餐馆,点一分简单便宜的午餐。

我不停地赚钱,终于一点点地攒够了出国的钱。

8那时,家里不再需要我帮助,所以我放弃了工作,坐船去了欧洲。

我在那儿呆了4年,发奋学习,用工的程度是我以前做梦都想不到的,而且每一分钟都过得很开心。

9说真的,“开心”这个词环不足以表达我的心情;我简直是陶醉了。

这才是真正的生活。

我成了一个自由的人,我在做我喜欢和该做的事情。

10如果一直经商的话,我今天可能已经是一个真正的有钱的人了。

然而,我并不认为那样的生活会是成功的。

我可能放弃掉了金钱所无法买到的幸福---当一个的主要目标是赚钱时,这种幸福往往就被放弃掉了。

Unit 6 The Diary of the Unknown SoldierThis story is dedicated to all of the unknown soldiers who died while trying to protect the lives of the innocent.NOVEMBER 24, 19431 It has been almost six months since I last saw American soil, my family, ormy home. My heart aches every moment because everywhere I look I see piles of rubble where houses used to stand and lifeless bodies that once moved around with the joy of life inside them. It is as if I have stared into death’s eyes and seen its hatred, i ts coldness. If it would have been some strangers’ corpses that I had seen I might have taken it lighter. But these lifeless heaps are, or used to be, my friends and colleagues. They all came here with an air of confidence and eagerness, ready to What foo ls they were! Couldn’t those men see that what they received was a one-way ticket to death, couldn’t they have opened their eyes! Of course, I was like them, but I have changed my views since the last D-Day, when our regiment was assigned to protect London.2 Today was rainy and cold, just like any other, when, out of the blue, Germanfighter planes bombarded our small, makeshift All I could hear were the sounds of bombs exploding, crippling those people in their way. I was suddenly knocked into a trench and able to be undetected by the planes circling I was lucky.3 When I came to, the Axis planes had gone and the few survivors that were leftbegan scooping up bodies. I suffered minor head injuries, but the rest of my platoon wasn’t so fortunate. All I can say to describe the aftermath of the explosions is that it was a sea of blood. Right about this time thoughts of suicide entered my head, but I decided that I must go on. I must go on living this nightmare, if not for myself or my country, then for my family back home.I want my children to have a father. My family has been sending me mail, butI have received only a few letters so far. Oh, how I wish I could see my darlingdaughters! They are experiencing tough times too, with the food shortage problems and all. I hope the garden that they planted is growing. My thoughts drift to my wife She is so dear to me that I can’t stop thinking about her.4 My job now is plane spotting. It is a civilian’s task, but there are no morecivilians left to do it. I must end this entry now because I am too tired to go on writing. All I ask is that I be alive5when this ends. Although I’m not so sure I’ll get my wish.NOVEMBER 29, 19431 I do not remember why I ever came here. Why does war have to be the way problemsare solved War just creates more problems; something every sensible person knows.I guess that means people like Hitler aren’t sensible. Now my K-rations arerunning low. My joints are frozen stiff and my ammunition has been used up. Word has it that the Axis powers are sending troops to our location within the My situation is grim and the odds of winning, or even surviving, seem unlikely.More blood has been shed and my body simply cannot take When I eat, sleep, and fight I have to stare at cold, lifeless soldiers that look like they were never alive. If I return home I vow to keep these soldiers’ memories alive by telling their families they died bravely in an effort to save their country from turmoil.While that might not provide much to help them cope with their loss, it will make the children feel like their fathers made a2 A few days ago my ragtag group of soldiers journeyed to a small European townthat had been untouched by warfare. Still, the townspeople took all of the proper war-time precautions. One night, as I performed my routine watch, I passed a young girl of no more than twelve or thirteen, who was walking home. I couldn’t help thinking about my two daughters when I saw her. I fell apart inside and broke into tears, wondering yet again if I would ever see my I would give anything to see them, even if it was for five minutes! I am not a man made for war, nor am I an adventurous person. I do not even remember my reason for joining in this madness! I guess I thought it was something that had to be done. A sayingI once heard strikes a painful note in my head, “Even one war is too many.”10The person who said it had a valid Never have I been so enraged at my fellow man Humans do err, but that is no excuse for ending innocent lives and destroying whole countries!13 No one has that right. How can we be so selfish and ignorant as to not care about each other! This thought makes me sicker than when I am staring at heaps of bodies strewn over the tattered soil.DECEMBER 24, 19431 I think we have a spy in our regiment because the nightmare has surfaced again.Our “secret” location is being invaded by Nazi troops as I write this down.I have hidden myself in a small trench, my last hope for surviving. I wish, withall my soul, that I could be home now, in my own bed, waiting for Christmas morningto come. The children would be tucked in their beds, and my wife and I would be soundly asleep in our room. I am struggling to calm myself down, but my face is covered in dirt and sweat, and my head is pounding like I am so close to death that I can actually feel its fiery breath engulfing To help keep me from panicking I am thinking of my daughters’ faces as they open their presents on Christmas Day. The faces are all aglow with delight. I will always remember their faces, wait —I hear footsteps coming in my direction. My rifle is useless since there are no shells in it. If this is my last entry then please, whoever finds this, return it to my family. Oh my God! I can see from my hiding spot that a Nazi soldier is inspecting the trench. It is only a matter of time before he finds me. I have one last question before I die. WhyAlmost nine and a half years after the last diary entry was written a British infantryman found the small journal as he was clearing away wreckage at the doomed battle site. The name of the author is today a mystery and it was not mentioned in the diary. Only the initial R was found in the bottom left-hand corner of the first page. The man, who is dubbed “The Unknown Soldier ,” was never found although we assume he is dead at this time.一个无名士兵的日记1943年11月24日我离开美国,家人已经有6个月了。
