Unit 3你能证明地球是圆的吗?来试试看吧!你将依靠你自己的智力还是不得不引用专家的观点呢?我们为什么相信地球是圆的?乔治·奥韦尔记得在什么地方——我想是在《圣女贞德》序言中——肖伯纳评论说,今天我们比在中世纪时更加轻信,更加迷信。
而作为现代轻信的例证,他举出地圆说这一广为传播的信念。
肖伯纳说,普通人举不出一条理由来说明为什么相信地球是圆的。
他全盘接受这一理论,只是因为这一理论中有一种迎合20世纪心态的东西。
当然,肖伯纳是夸大其词了,但他说的也确实有些道理,这一问题值得进一步探讨,因为它会帮助人们看清现代知识的真实情况。
我们究竟为什么会相信地球是圆的呢?我说的不是数千位天文学家、地理学家之类的人,他们可以用观察到的事实或用理论上的根据来证实这一点,我指的是如同你我之辈的报纸的普通读者。
至于“地平说”,我相信我能够加以驳斥。
如果你在天气晴朗的日子站立海边,你可以看到船桅和烟囱沿着地平线移动而不见船体本身。
只有假设地球表面呈曲线状,这一现象才能得到解释。
但不能由此推断地球是球形的。
设想另一个称做“地球卵形说”的理论吧,这一学说声称地球形如蛋状。
对此,我能说什么加以反驳呢?面对“地球卵形说”者,我能打的第一张牌是,可以根据太阳和月亮来类推。
“地球卵形说”者立即回敬道,我无法根据自己的观察得知那些天体是球形的。
我只能得知他们是圆的,而它们完全可能呈扁平的圆盘状。
我对此无言以答。
此外,他还会说,我凭什么理由认为地球一定与太阳和月亮的形状相同?对此,我同样无法解答。
我的第二张牌是地球的影子: 月食期间,地球投在月亮上的影子看上去呈圆形物体状。
但“地球卵形说”者马上要问,我怎么知道月食是由地球的影子造成的呢?回答是,我并不知道,我只是照搬报刊文章和科普小册子上的说法而已。
小小交锋受挫,于是我打出一张王牌“Q”: 专家的看法。
英国格林威治皇家天文台台长总该是权威了,他告诉我说地球是圆的。
“地球卵形说”者用他的“K”牌压倒我的“Q”牌。

Many people believe that there is equality of opportunity that allows anyone to become successful. This belief is illustrated by storied written by a nineteenth-century American novelist, Horatio Alger, who wrote about the “American Dream”. In his stories he described poor people who became rich because of their hard work, honesty, and luck. The stories reinforced the idea that all individuals, no matter how poor, were capable of becoming wealthy as long as they were honest and hard-working. For many Americans, however, Horatio Alger‟s …rags-to-riches‟stories do not represent the reality of opportunity. Many poor immigrants who came to the United States in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries were able to become rich. Today, however, the poor generally do not rise to the middle and upper classes. That is why the “American Dream” is now described as a myth.Part ⅡA young man, though eager to find a job, turned down a teaching job at a boys‟ school. During the interview he found the headmaster very unpleasant to talk with. In fact, he and the headmaster had very little in common. They disagreed sharply in their views on education, particularly on the importance of games in the aducation of young boys. Also, the young man found that he was expected to teach almost all subjects, including the two he hated---algebra and geometry. Worse still, he would be required to play cricket with his class on Saturday afternoon when his friends would all be enjoying themselves. He was still considering accepting the job even at the pitiful wage of twelve pounds a week, when he was told that he would be working under the headmater‟s wife. In the eyes of the young man, nothing could be more insulting than having to take orders from a woman boss. He had to refuse the job.Unit 4II Comprehension of the text1. 1) b 2) c 3) a 4) d 5) c 6) a 7) b 8) dIII Vocabulary Activities1. 1) few 2) A little 3) little 4) few 5) a few, little 6) a few, few 7) little 8) few2. 1) function 2) corresponded with each other 3) immune to 4) at ease 5) displayed 6) approach 7) puzzle 8) a household word 9) capable of carrying out 10) so much so that3. 1) a series of 2) approaches 3) are pursuing 4) ambition 5) fame 6) come to terms with 7) workout 8) singled out 9) personality 10) taken apart 11) at ease 12) observe 13) modest 14) application 15) curiosity 16) solutions4.1)He writes exclusively for the Washington Post.2)The friendship your people have for our people impressed me deeply during my visit in your country.

大学英语精读第4册课文翻译及课后答案
大学英语精读第四册课文翻译Unit 1两个大学男孩 不清楚赚钱需要付出艰苦的劳动 被一份许诺轻松赚大钱的广告吸引了。
男孩们很快就明白 如果事情看起来好得不像真的 那多半确实不是真的。
轻轻松松赚大钱约翰•G•哈贝尔“你们该看看这个 ”我向我们的两个读大学的儿子建议道。
“你们若想避免因为老是向人讨钱而有失尊严的话 这兴许是一种办法。
”我将挂在我们门把手上的、装在一个塑料袋里的几本杂志拿给他们。
塑料袋上印着一条信息说 需要招聘人投递这样的袋子 这活儿既轻松又赚钱。
“轻轻松松赚大钱!” “我不在乎失不失尊严 ”大儿子回答说。
“我可以忍受 ”他的弟弟附和道。
“看到你们俩伸手讨钱讨惯了一点也不感到尴尬的样子 真使我痛心 ”我说。
孩子们说他们可以考虑考虑投递杂志的事。
我听了很高兴 便离城出差去了。
午夜时分 我已远离家门 在一家旅馆的房间里舒舒服服住了下来。
电话铃响了 是妻子打来的。
她想知道我这一天过得可好。
“好极了!”我兴高采烈地说。
“你过得怎么样?”我问道。
“棒极了!”她大声挖苦道。
“真棒!而且这还仅仅是个开始。
又一辆卡车刚在门前停下。
”“又一辆卡车?”“今晚第三辆了。
第一辆运来了四千份蒙哥马利-沃德百货公司的广告 第二辆运来四千份西尔斯-罗伯克百货公司的广告。
我不知道这一辆装的啥 但我肯定又是四千份什么的。
既然这事是你促成的 我想你或许想了解事情的进展。
”我之所以受到指责 事情原来是这样 由于发生了一起报业工人罢工 通常夹在星期日报纸里的广告插页 必须派人直接投送出去。
公司答应给我们的孩子六百美金 任务是将这些广告插页在星期天早晨之前投递到四千户人家去。
“不费吹灰之力!”我们上大学的大儿子嚷道。
“六百块!”他的弟弟应声道 “我们两个钟点就能干完!”“西尔斯和沃德的广告通常都是报纸那么大的四页 ”妻子告诉我说 “现在我们门廊上堆着三万二千页广告。
就在我们说话的当儿 两个大个子正各抱着一大捆广告走过来。
这么多广告 我们可怎么办?”“你让孩子们快干 ”我指示说。
