And then we saw a bear enter Our Camp. Tom wanted his father to chase him away. His father Said, ''No. It's dangerous to chase a bear. And don’t let him ch ase you.'' Susie said, ''What shall we do? Maybe we ought to climb a tree .'' Tom Said, ''No. We've got to get him out of there. He might go to sleep in our tent.” Maybe we could make him leave if we put some honey outside for him to eat.'' Susie suggested. Then I said,''How are you going to get the honey? It’s in the tent.'' We watched the bear entered the tent and heard him upset everything inside. “ It's foolish for us to try to catch him,“ said my husband “Leave him alone and wait for him to come out” We waited, but the bear stayed inside. We had to sleep in the car.Questions1 Where have the family decided to go in the vacation this summer2 Who do you think saw the bear first3 What did they do when they saw a bear enter their tent4 What did the bear do in the tent5 where did we sleep at last?答案与分析1 A 注意这题问的是“this summer” ,考点就在第一句话“Our family is trying to decide” 正在试图决定,也就是尚未决定。

Exercise 6参考译文电脑与人脑的差异电脑与人脑的差异,可以用一个字眼来概括:复杂性。

大型哺乳动物的大脑,就其体积而言,是我们所知晓的最复杂的机体。

人脑只有三磅,但就在这三磅物质中,却包含着一百亿个神经细胞,以及一千亿个更小的细胞。

这上百亿、上千亿的细胞相互联系,形成一个无比复杂的网络,人类迄今还无法解开这其中的奥秘。

即使人类现今研制出的最复杂的电脑,其复杂程度也无法与人脑相比。

电脑的转换器和元件只是成千上万,而不是上百亿、上千亿。

更重要的是,电脑的转换器仅是一种开关装置,而人脑细胞本身却有着复杂的内部结构。

电脑能思考吗?这取决于你如何理解“思考”的含义。

如果解一道数学题可算‘思考’的话,那么电脑也能“思考”,而且速度比人快得多。

当然,大多数数学题只需通过十分机械地不断重复某种简单的过程,就能得到解决。

如今,即使简单的电脑也能胜任这一工作。

人们常说,电脑之所以能解决问题,只是因为它们给输入了解决问题的“程序”。

它们只能做人让它们做的事。

我们应该记住,人类同样也只能按照“程序”办事。

受精卵一形成,基因就给我们遍好了“程序”,我们的潜能也就要受到这个“程序”的限制。

不过,我们的“程序”要复杂得多,因此我们更喜欢用创造力来界定“思考”的意义。

有了这种创造力,就能写出伟大的剧本,创作不朽的乐章,提出卓越的科学理论,创立深奥的伦理观点。

从这个意义上来讲,电脑当然不能思考,人类的大多数也做不到。

可是,如果能把电脑造得足够复杂的话,那它一定能像人一样富于创造力。

倘若电脑能像人脑那样复杂,它就能与人脑旗鼓相当,完成人脑所能做的一切。

如果还要设想什么的话,那就设想人脑除了构成它的物质以外,还有什么别的奥秘。

人脑是由细胞按一定的方式组合而成的,而脑细胞又是由原子和分子按一定的方式组合而成的。

假如真有别的奥秘存在,我们可从未发现任何迹象。

因此,复制出人脑复杂的物质结构,也就复制出了它的一切。

但是,研制一台复杂程度与人脑相当的电脑需要多长时间呢?也许不象有些人想象的那么长。

早在我们研制出和人脑一样复杂的电脑之前,我们也许能造出这样一台电脑,其复杂程度至少能使它设计出一台比它更复杂的电脑。

这台复杂的电脑又能设计出一台更更复杂的电脑,依此类推,一代代地研制下去。

也就是说,一旦我们过了某个临界点,电脑就会取得主宰地位,出现一个“复杂性爆炸”。

此后用不了多久,就会出现这样的电脑,它们不仅能跟人脑相匹敌——而且会远远胜过人脑。

到那时会怎么样呢?唉,反正人类现在也没有做好管理地球的工作。

也许到那时候,我们真该豁达大度地让到一边,把工作交给更为称职的去做。

如果我们不主动让位,也许超级电脑就会老实不客气地闯进来,把我们推到一边。

分句翻译The Difference between a Brain And a ComputerIsaac Asimov电脑与人脑的差异[美] 艾萨克·阿西莫夫孙致礼译The difference between a brain and a computer can be expressed in a single word: complexity.电脑与人脑的差异,可以用一个字眼来概括:复杂性。

The large mammalian brain is the most complicated thing, for its size, known to us.大型哺乳动物的大脑,就其体积而言,是我们所知晓的最复杂的机体。

(mammal: 哺乳动物mammalian: 哺乳动物的)The human brain weighs three pounds, but in the three pounds are ten billion neurons and a hundred billion smaller cells.人脑只有三磅,但就在这三磅物质中,却包含着一百亿个神经细胞,以及一千亿个更小的细胞。

(neuron: 神经细胞)These many billions of cells are interconnected in a vastly complicated network that we can’t begin to unravel as yet.这上百亿、上千亿的细胞相互联系,形成一个无比复杂的网络,人类迄今还无法解开这其中的奥秘。

(unravel: 阐明,解释,解开)Even the most complicated computer man has yet built can’t compare in intricacy with the brain.即使人类现今研制出的最复杂的电脑,其复杂程度也无法与人脑相比。

(intricacy: 纷乱,复杂,错综)Computer switches and components number in the thousands rather than in the billions.电脑的转换器和元件只是成千上万,而不是上百亿、上千亿。

What’s more, the computer switch is just an on-off device, whereas the brain cell is itself possessed of a tremendously complex structure.更重要的是,电脑的转换器仅是一种开关装置,而人脑细胞本身却有着复杂的内部结构。

(be possessed of: 拥有...的,具有...的eg. He was possessed of great self-confidence. 他极有自信。

)Can a computer think? That depends on what you mean by “think”.电脑能思考吗?这取决于你如何理解“思考”的含义。

If solving a mat hematical problem is “thinking”, then a computer can “think” and do so much faster than a man.如果解一道数学题可算‘思考’的话,那么电脑也能“思考”,而且速度比人快得多。

Of course, most mathematical problems can be solved quite mechanically by repeating certain straight forward processes over and over again.当然,大多数数学题只需通过十分机械地不断重复某种简单的过程,就能得到解决。

Even the simple computers of today can be geared for that.如今,即使简单的电脑也能胜任这一工作。

(gear: 连接上,适合)It is frequently said that computers solve problems only because they are “programmed” to do so.人们常说,电脑之所以能解决问题,只是因为它们给输入了解决问题的“程序”。

They can only do what men have them do.它们只能做人让它们做的事。
