one.(l.35)4.The world is a splendid combination of heaven and hell,and both sectors call for attention and scrutiny.(l.39)III.Translate the paragraphs below into ChineseFocusing solely on these details,however,produces a misshapen picture.Civilization is a lot more than the sum total of its catastrophes.The most important ingredient in any civilization is progress.But progress doesn’t happen all at once.It is not eruptive.Generally,it comes in bits and pieces,very little of it clearly visible at any given moment,but all of it involved in the making of historical change for the better.It is this aspect of living history that most news reporting reflects inadequately.The result is that we are underinformed about positive developments and overinformed about disasters.This,in turn,leads to a public mood of defeatism and despair,which in themselves tend to be inhibitors of progress.An unrelieved diet of eruptive news depletes the essential human energies a free society needs.A mood of hopelessness and cynicism is hardly likely to furnish the energy needed to meet serious challenges.Complete the following sentences with relevant information.1.Mass communication differs from

Lesson 6 Disappearing Through the Skylight 练习题答案/answerⅠ .1. Lysenko : Trofim Denisovich Lysenko (1898-- 1976), Russian agronomist. As president of the Lenin All-Union Academy of Agricultural Sciences he became the scientific and administrative leader of Soviet agriculture. In 1937 he was made a member of the Supreme Soviet and head of the institute of Genetics of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. He first became known for his process (vernalization) of moistening and refrigerating the seed of spring wheat thereby reputedly imparting to it the characteristics of winter wheat. He became the leader of the Soviet school of genetics that opposed the theories of heredity accepted by most geneticists and supported the doctrine that the characteristics acquired through environmental influences are inherited. Lysenko rejected neo-Mendelism and was a disciple of the Russian horticulturist I. V. Michurin. Ly senkol s theories were offered as Marxist orthodoxy and won the official support (1948) of the Soviet Central Com- mittee. However, they were severely criticized after the death of Stalin in 1953, and in 1956 he was removed as director of the Institute of Genetics, which resulted in there turn of Soviet biological thought to the mainstream of international scientific ideas.2. Leonardo. Leonardo da Vinci (1452 -- 1519), Italian painter, sculptor, architect, musician, engineer, and scientist, born near Vinci, a hill village in Tuscany. In 1466 he moved to Florence, where he entered the workshop of Verrocchio. Early in his apprenticeship he painted an an-gel, and perhaps portions of the landscape, in Verrocchio' s Baptism of Christ. The culmination of Leonardo' s art during his first period in Florence is the magnificent unfinished Adoration of the Magi commissioned in 1481 by the monks of San Donato a Scopeto. In this work is revealed the integration of dramatic movement and chiaroscuro that characterizes the master' s mature style, He went to Milan around 1482 and remained at the court of Ludovico Sforza for 16 years. In 1483, Leonardo, with his pupil Ambrogiode Predis, was commissioned to execute the famous Madonna of the Rocks. Leonardo' s fresco of the Last Sup-per (Milan) was begun around 1495 and completed by1498. After the fall ofLudovica Sforza (1499) Leonar do left Milan and returned to Florence. Here he engaged in much theoretical work in mathematics and pursued his anatomical studies at the hospital of Santa Maria Nuova. In 1502 he entered the service of Cesare Borgia as a military engineer. In 1503 he was commissioned to execute the fresco of the battle of Anghiari but was never completed. From about this time dates the celebrated Mona Liza, the portrait of the wife of a Florentine merchant. The old master spent his last years in France at the castle of Cloux, near Amboise. Here he was left entirely free to pursue his own researches until his death. The versatility and creative power of Leonardo mark him as a supreme example of Renaissance genius. The richness and originality of intellect expressed in his notebooks reveal one of the greatest minds of all time.Ⅱ.1. There are broad agreements about the basic concepts of science, for example, there is only a single science of thermodynamics whose basic concepts are accepted by all countries, including such diverse countries as China, America or the Soviet Union. For a short time there were two genetics, a Soviet genetics as proposed by Lysenko and a Western genetics. However, Soviet Lysenko' s theories were refuted and in 1956 the Soviet Union accepted the Western genetic concepts.2. It makes the world look more and more uniform. Different styles in architecture, dress, music and eating that exist in various countries and among different people are tending to disappear. They are being replaced by more uniform styles or world styles. The houses the people live in, the cars they drive, etc. , are becoming more alike.3. A technological innovation in the manufacture of automobiles like streamlining or all-welded body construction may be initiated by one company in one country, but when it proves to make cars more efficient and cheaper, it is soon adopted universally by all automobile manufacturers. Today, the basic features of an automobile are to be found in automobiles in general, no matter who makes them. Besides this feature, all large automakers are now international companies. Americans have auto plants in Europe, Asia and South America, and Europeans and Japanese have plants in America and South America, and so on.4. He drives cars that have the same basic features. When he goes shopping, he finds the climate in all the shops is the same because they are all similarlyair-conditioned. When he travels he finds all the airports to be familiar because they are all constructed along similar lines and the hotels to have the same amenities. In a word, he finds himself at home in all countries and places.5. He no longer has a fixed home with all the emotional ties that are usually attached to such a home with its fixed location surrounded by well-known neighbors, etc. His home is now everywhere and he is always surrounded by all kinds of neighbors. He feels the old home limited his activities and his emotions.6. She says in the past artists regarded machines and machinelike structures like the Eiffel Tower in Paris as ugly and irreverent. After 1949 the artists discovered a new beauty in machines which could now be shaped and moulded very easily into various artistic designs.7. The writer doesn’t t directly answer the question. He says science has now thrown doubt on "the thingliness of things". It does not produce the material objects we see with our eyes but images, geometric and mathematical, of the reality underlying these things. It has made the world rather "insubstantial". The writer in his prologue states: "Today, nature has slipped, perhaps finally, beyond our field of vision. We can imitate it in mathematics -- we can even produce convincing images of it -- but we can never know it. We can only know our own creations.8. It is displayed in the architectural styles found in cities of the developed world -- styles that typify collage city and urban adhocism. It is also displayed in the mosaic architecture of facadism and the playful theme parks and museum villages. It abounds in images and sounds and values utterly different from those of the world of natural things seen from a middle distance.9. The banks are no longer the solid, ponderous buildings of the past but airy structures Of steel and glass. People need not go to the banks directly for many financial transactions which can now be carried out in stores or trailers with slot- machinelike terminals linked to the banks. Money is now recorded, erased, processed and reprocessed as digital signals by a computer.Ⅲ.1.In the passage, the writer puts forward his central theme of "disappearance" -- nature disappears, history disappears and even the solid banks disappear. Besides expressing the central theme of the book, the metaphorical phrase, "Disappearing Through the Skylight", is used also specifically in this chapter to describe the changedappearance of modern banks which seem to be disappearing. The second important idea he puts forward is the universalizing tendency of science and technology. The basic concepts of science are understood, accepted and adopted by scientists all over the world. There is only one science of thermodynamics, genetics, etc. This universalizing effect is reflected in architectural styles, dress styles, musical styles, etc. They all tend to become world styles. The third concept is, "If man creates machines, machines in turn shape their creators. " The modern man is no longer a unique individual, the product of a special environment and culture. The homogeneous world he now lives in universalizes him. He becomes a cosmopolitan, a citizen of the world. Finally, the disappearance of history is a form of liberation and this feeling of liberation is often expressed through play. the playfulness of science has produced game theory and virtual particles, in art it has puoduced the paintings of Picasso and Joan Miro and so on.2. The writer' s views are generally clearly and succinctly presented as a topic sentence at the beginning of each paragraph and then developed or illustrated in the paragraph itself or by succeeding paragraphs. For example, the first sentence in the opening paragraph is a topic sentence that presents a very important view of the writer, "Science is committed to the universal. " This idea of universality is developed and illustrated in the five paragraphs that follow and each paragraph that follows also has its own topic sentence. The organizational pattern is very clear and logical.3. The writer uses tha present tense and universal statements to attain the goal of objectivity.4. The writer uses figurative language freely to make his ideas more vivid and forceful. Readers can find many metaphors, analogies, rhetorical questions, repetition and balanced structure, etc. in this piece. The very title of this piece, " Disappearing Through the Skylight ", is a metaphorical phrase that immediately stirs the imagination of readers.5. A lot of scientific and technical terms are used in this piece, such as thermodynamics, genetics, genetic mutations, etc. Many sentences are complex and compound ones; some of them, though simple sentences, are complicated in structure, for example, "The skepticism of modern science "" from the soul. " "It surrounds its citizens with "-" and geodesic domes and lunar landers. " All these are stylistic features.IV.1. Science is engaged in the task of making its basic concepts understood and accepted by scientists all over the world.2. The car model, called Fiesta, seems to have disappeared completely.3. The idea of a world car is similar to the idea of having a world style for architecture. /As architecture was moving toward a common International Style, it was natural for the automobile to do the same.4. Things that are happening in auto making are similar to those happening in architecture.5. The modern man no longer has very distinct individual traits shaped by a special environment and culture.6.The disadvantage of being a cosmopolitan is that he loses a home in the old sense of the world.7.The benefit of being a cosmopolitan is that he begins to think the old kind of home probably restricts his development and activities.8.The compelling force of technology to universalize cannot be resisted.9.When every artist thought it was his duty to show his contempt for and objection to the Eiffel Tower which they considered an irreverent architectural structure.10.a flexible and pliable quality that was beyond human powers and absolutely new 11.People used to firmly believe that the things they saw around them were real solid substances but this has now been thrown into doubt by science,12.That,perhaps, shows how far logically modern aesthetic can go./The solid banks can become almost abstract and invisible./This is perhaps the furthest limit of how solid objective things may be disappearing.V.See the translation of the text.Ⅵ.1.Thermodynamics热力学2.genetic遗传学3.stress应力4.genetic mutation遗传突变5.streamlining(设计成)流线型6.all—welded body全焊车身7.cyclinder block气缸套8.carburetor汽化器9.transmission传动;变速器10.cells细胞11.molecules分子12.galaxies星系13.particles粒子14.black hole(天文)黑洞15.genes基因16.High-tension lines高压线17.circuit(集成)电路18.geodesic dome用轻便和挺直建筑材料的拉力建造的圆屋顶19.terminal终端20.Magnetic tapes(录音等用)磁带21.computer计算机Ⅶ.1.homogeneous:the same in structure,quality,etc.;similar or identical 2.diversity:different;variety3.economics:things related to the economy(of automobile manufacturing,such as production costs,consumer appeal,sale price,etc.)4.asset:a valuable or desirable thing5.suspect:think it probable or likely;guess;suppose6.barring:unless there should be;excepting7.blasphemy:any remark or action or thing held to be irreverent or disrespectful 8.proposition:a person,problem,undertaking,etc.,being or to be dealt with 9.extra:outside the scope or region of;beyond10.order:category,class11.artifact:a product(as a structure on a microscope slide)of artificial character due to extraneous(as human)agency12.circuits:an integrated circuit,a tiny complex of electronic components and their interconnections produced on a single small silicon chip silicon:a silicon chip,a small slice of silicon on which an integrated circuit is etched.13.truss:a rigid framework of beams,struts bars,etc.,for supporting a roof geodesic dome:a dome made of light straight structural elements mostly in tensionⅧ.1.uni-,having or consisting of one only:universe,uniaxial,unicellular, unilateral, unipolar, univalve2. thermo-, heat : thermodynamics, thermochemistry, thermoelectric, thermometer, thermomagnetic, thermoplastic3. dis-, fail, cease, refuse to .disappear, dissatisfy, disallow, disappoint, disapprove, disbelieve4. techno-, art, science, skill, technical, technological: technology, technography, technocracy, technocrat, technologist, technologize5. hom or homo-, one and the same : similar, alike : homogeneous, homograph, homochromatic, homology, homonym, homophone6. auto-, self-propelling: automobile, autotruck, autobus, autocade, autogyro, automotive7. trans-, over, across, through: transmission, transfer, transmigrate, transfuse,, transform, transition8. cosmo-, world, universe, cosmopolitan, cosmography, cosmology, cosmonaut, cosmopolis9. post-, after in time, later (than), following: postmodernism, postglacial, postnatal, posthumous, postimpressionism, postmortem10. neo-, new, recent, latest : neomodernism, neolithic, neo-Darwinism, neoimpressionism, neologism, neophyteIX.1.

Impact of Science and Technology on Our societyThe development of science and technology nowadays has exerted an enormous influence on our society. We needn’t enumerate the achievements human beings have made in the fields of electronics and biochemistry which so benefit us. Only have a look around us and we are sure to feel the ubiquitous impact.Radios and cassette recorders are the necessary tools for learning foreign languages. A telephone has become one of the most important communication tools even among students. When the clock strikes, announcing the arrival of the new year, many students wait at the telephone box with an intention of sending greetings to their family members. And we now use magnetic cards to buy food in the canteens. The procedure becomes simple and the management systematic. With the help of the sophisticated medical equipment, some diseases which used to be incurable can be got rid of.On the other hand, the scientific and technical development has resulted in some problems, among which is pollution. Fortunately, more and more people have come to realize the seriousness of a variety of pollutions and begun to take the action against it.Although the development of science and technology has brought some side effects, with its further advance, human beings are sure to get over them, and enjoy more and more ad-vantages of science and technology.。
