【课⽂】 First listen and then answer the following question. 听录⾳,然后回答以下问题。
What does the 'uniquely rational way' for us to communicate with other intelligent beings in space depend on? We must conclude from the work of those who have studied the origin of life, that given a planet only approximately like our own, life is almost certain to start. Of all the planets in our solar system, we ware now pretty certain the Earth is the only one on which life can survive. Mars is too dry and poor in oxygen, Venus far too hot, and so is Mercury, and the outer planets have temperatures near absolute zero and hydrogen-dominated atmospheres. But other suns, start as the astronomers call them, are bound to have planets like our own, and as is the number of stars in the universe is so vast, this possibility becomes virtual certainty. There are one hundred thousand million starts in our own Milky Way alone, and then there are three thousand million other Milky Ways, or galaxies, in the universe. So the number of the stars that we know exist is now estimated at about 300 million million million. Although perhaps only 1 per cent of the life that has started somewhere will develop into highly complex and intelligent patterns, so vast is the number of planets, that intelligent life is bound to be a natural part of the universe. If then we are so certain that other intelligent life exists in the universe, why have we had no visitors from outer space yet? First of all, they may have come to this planet of ours thousands or millions of years ago, and found our then prevailing primitive state completely uninteresting to their own advanced knowledge. Professor Ronald Bracewell, a leading American radio astronomer, argued in Nature that such a superior civilization, on a visit to our own solar system, may have left an automatic messenger behind to await the possible awakening of an advanced civilization. Such a messenger, receiving our radio and television signals, might well re-transmit them back to its home-planet, although what impression any other civilization would thus get from us is best left unsaid. But here we come up against the most difficult of all obstacles to contact with people on other planets -- the astronomical distances which separate us. As a reasonable guess, they might, on an average, be 100 light years away. (A light year is the distance which light travels at 186,000 miles per second in one year, namely 6 million million miles.) Radio waves also travel at the speed of light, and assuming such an automatic messenger picked up our first broadcasts of the 1920's, the message to its home planet is barely halfway there. Similarly, our own present primitive chemical rockets, though good enough to orbit men, have no chance of transporting us to the nearest other star, four light years away, let alone distances of tens or hundreds of light years. Fortunately, there is a 'uniquely rational way' for us to communicate with other intelligent beings, as Walter Sullivan has put it in his excellent book, We Are not Alone. This depends on the precise radio frequency of the 21-cm wavelength, or 1420 megacycles per second. It is the natural frequency of emission of the hydrogen atoms in space and was discovered by us in 1951; it must be known to any kind of radio astronomer in the universe. Once the existence of this wave-length had been discovered, it was not long before its use as the uniquely recognizable broadcasting frequency for interstellar communication was suggested. Without something of this kind, searching for intelligences on other planets would be like trying to meet a friend in London without a pre-arranged rendezvous and absurdly wandering the streets in the hope of a chance encounter. ANTHONY MICHAELIS Are There Strangers in Space? from The Weekend Telegraph 【New words and expressions ⽣词和短语】 Mercury n. ⽔星 hydrogen n. 氢⽓ prevailing adj. 普遍的 radio astronomer 射电天⽅学家 uniquely adv. 地 rational adj. 合理的 radio frequency ⽆线电频率 cm n. 厘⽶ megacycle n. 兆周 emission n. 散发 intersteller adj.星际的 rendezvous n. 约会地点 【课⽂注释】 1.that given a planet only approximately like our own, life is almost certain to start 这是⼀个宾语从句,作动词conclude的宾语,其中given a planet...our own,过去分词短语作条件状语,given与if的意思相近,这个过去分词短语可译成“如果⼀个⾏星与我们所在的⾏星⼤致相同的话”。

Lesson 39 Am I all right? 我是否痊愈?Why did Mr. Gilbert telephone Dr. Millington?While John Gilbert was in hospital, he asked his doctor to tell him whether his operation had been successful, but the doctor refused to do so. The following day, the patient asked for a bedside telephone. When he was alone, he telephoned the hospital exchange and asked for Doctor Millington. When the doctor answered the phone, Mr. Gilbert said he was inquiring about a certain patient, a Mr. John Gilbert. He asked if Mr. Gilbert's operation had been successful and the doctor told him that it had been. He then asked when Mr. Gilbert would be allowed to go home and the doctor told him that he would have to stay in hospital for another two weeks. Then Dr. Millington asked the caller if he was a relative of the patient. 'No,' the patient answered, 'I am Mr. John Gilbert.'参考译文当约翰.吉尔伯特住院的时候,他问医生他的手术是否成功,但医生拒绝告诉他。

新概念英语第三册第39课:Nothing to worry aboutLesson 39 Nothing to worry about不必担心 Listen to the tape then answer the question below.听录音,然后回答以下问题。
What was the difference between Bruce's behaviour and that of other people?The rough across the plain soon became so bad that we tried to get Bruce to drive back to the village we had come from. Even though the road was littered with boulders and pitted with holes, Bruce was not in the least perturbed. Glancing at his map, he informed us that the next village was a mere twenty miles away. It was not that Bruce always underestimated difficulties. He simply had no sense of danger at all. No matter what the conditions were, he believed that a car should be driven as fast as it could possibly go.As we bumped over eh dusty track, we swerved to avoid large boulders. The wheels scooped up stones which hammered ominously under the car. We felt sure that sooner or later a stone would rip a hole in our petrol tank or damage the engine. Because of this, we kept looking back, wondering if we were leaving a trail of oil and petrol behind us.What a relief it was when the boulders suddenly disappeared, giving way to a stretch of plain where the only obstacles were clumps of bushes. But there was worse to come. Just ahead of us there was a huge fissure. In response to renewed pleadings, Bruce stopped. Though we all got out to examine the fissure, he remained in the car. We informed him that the fissure extended for fifty years and was tow feet wide and four feet deep. Even this had no effect. Bruce went into a lowgear and drove at a terrifying speed, keeping the front wheels astride the crack as he followed its zigzag course. Before we had time to worry about what might happen, we were back on the plain again. Bruce consulted the map once more and told us that the village was now only fifteen miles away. Our next obstacle was a shallow pool of water about half a mile across. Bruce charged at it, but in the middle, the car came to a grinding half. A yellow light on the dashboard flashed angrily and Bruce cheerfully announced that there was no oil in the engine! 参考译文穿越平原的道路高低不平,开车走了不远,路面愈加崎岖。

标题:人类的大脑有多强大?
正文:
人类的大脑是我们的身体中最神秘的器官之一。
它是人类思维、情感和行为的中心,拥有惊人的力量和技能。
大脑由许多不同的区域组成,每个区域都有不同的功能。
例如,我们的前额叶皮层是我们的决策和自我意识的中心,而我们的顶叶皮层是我们的视觉和空间感知的中心。
大脑还可以通过学习和记忆来改变自身的结构。
当我们学习新事物时,我们的大脑会发生变化,使我们能够更好地理解和记忆这些信息。
大脑还有惊人的适应能力。
例如,当我们遭受创伤性脑损伤时,大脑可以通过可塑性来适应新的结构,从而使患者能够恢复部分功能。
大脑还有许多其他的技能和特点。
虽然我们无法想象大脑可以变得多么强大,但它仍然是我们身体中最不可思议的器官之一。
拓展:
人类的大脑是进化的产物,经历了漫长的发展过程。
在进化的过程中,大脑逐渐变得更加复杂和强大,以适应人类生存和繁衍的需要。
大脑的发展也与我们的生活方式密切相关。
例如,我们的饮食、锻炼、社交和睡眠等因素都会影响大脑的健康和功能。
近年来,神经科学领域的研究取得了巨大的进展,我们逐渐了解了大脑是如何工作的,以及如何通过干预和治疗来改善大脑的功能和
结构。
大脑是一个令人惊叹的器官,它的能力和技能使我们能够思考、感知、学习和行动。
我们应该珍惜和保护我们的大脑,让它发挥出最大的潜力。
