Since then, my life revolved around my brothers. Accompanying my growing up was always go out and play and
9、take your brother with you. I couldnt go anywhere without him, so I urged the neighborhood kids to come to my house for some out-of-control kid-centered fun.我哥哥吉米出生时遇上难产,因为缺氧导致大脑受损。两年后,我出生了。 从此以后,我的生活便围绕我哥哥转。 伴随我成长的,是“到外面去玩,把你 哥哥也带上。” 不带上他,我是哪里也去不了的。因此,我怂恿邻居的孩子到 我家来,尽情地玩孩子们玩的游戏。para 2My mother taugh
10、t Jimmy practical things like how to brush his teeth or put on a belt. My father, a saint, simply held the house together with his patience and understanding. I was in charge outside where I administered justice by tracking down the parents of the kids who picked on my brother, and telling on them.我
11、母亲教吉米学习日常自理,比如刷牙或系皮带什么的。我父亲宅心仁厚, 他的耐心和理解使一家人心贴着心。我则负责外面的事,找到那些欺负我哥哥 的孩子们的父母,告他们的状,为我哥哥讨回公道。para 4So when my father died of a heart attack in 1991 z Jimmy was a wreck, beneath his careful disguise. He was simply in disbelief. Usually very agreeable, he now quit speaking altogether and no amount of wo
12、rds could penetrate the vacant expression he wore on his face. I hired someone to live with him and drive him to work, but no matter how much I tried to make things stay the same, even Jimmy grasped that the world hed known was gone. One day I asked, You miss Dad, dont you? His lips quivered and the
13、n he asked, What do you think, Margaret? He was my best friend. Our tears began to flow.所以,父亲1991年因心脏病去世时,吉米儿乎崩溃了,尽管他尽量不表现 出来。他就是不能相信父亲去世这一事实。通常,他是个令人愉快的人, 现在却一言不发,无论说多少话都不能透过他木然的脸部表情了解他的心事。 我雇了一个人和他住在起,开车送他去上班。然而,不管我怎么努力地维持原 状,吉米还是认为他熟悉的世界已经消失了。有一天,我问他:“你是不是想念 爸爸? ”他的嘴唇颤抖了几下,然后问我:“你怎么看,玛格丽特?他是我最好 的
14、朋友。”接着,我俩都流下了眼泪。para 7My mother was right, of course: It was possible to have a home with room for both his limitations and my ambitions. In fact, caring for someone who loves as deeply and appreciates my efforts as much as Jimmy does has enriched my life more than anything else ever could have.当然,母
15、亲的话没错:可以有一个家,既能容纳他的缺陷又能装下我的雄心。 事实上,关照像吉米这样个深爱乂感激我的人,更加丰富了我的生活,其他任 何东西都不能与之相比。para 12Just as my fathers death had changed Jimmys world overnight, September th changed our lives; the world wed known was gone. But, as we sang for Jimmy and held each other tight afterward praying for peace around the wo
16、rld, we were reminded that the constant love and support of our friends and family would get us through whatever life might present. The simplicity with which Jimmy had reconciled everything for us should not have been surprising. There had never been any limitations to what Jimmys love could accomp
17、lish.有如父亲的去世一夜之间改变了吉米的世界,9月11也改变了我们的生活; 我们熟悉的世界不复存在了。 但是,当我们为吉米唱歌,相互紧拥,祈祷全球 和平时,我们也意识到,朋友、家人间永恒的爱和支持可以让我们克服生活中的 任何困难。吉米以朴素的方式为我们协调了眼前的一切,他做到这一点并不令 人吃惊。吉米的爱可以征服一切,这是任何东西都限制不了的。unit 4para 2That same year Bartholdi had assembled the statues right arm and torch, and displayed them in Philadelphia. It is
18、 said that he had used his wifes arm as the model, but felt her face was too beautiful for the statue. He needed someone whose face represented suffering yet strength, someone more severe than beautiful. He chose his mother.与此同时,他爱上了一位他在加拿大认识的女子。他母亲不赞成自己的儿子 和一个她没有见过的女子恋爱,然而巴托尔迪不为所动,和心中所爱于1876年 结为伉俪。
19、同年,巴托尔迪组装完雕像的右臂和火炬,并将它们陈列在费城。 据说,他用了妻子的手臂为模本,但觉得她的脸太漂亮,不适合做雕像模本。他 需要这样个女人:面容沧桑却不失坚定,庄重多于美丽。他选择了自己的母 亲。para 7Now more than sixty years old, Barbara-who declines interviews but is said to have loved the doll-may be the most famous unknown figure on the planet.如今芭芭拉已有60多岁了,她拒绝接受采访,但据说她非常喜欢芭比娃娃。 她可能是当今世
20、上最著名的不为人知的人物了。para 9Grant Wood instantly rose to fame inl930 with his painting American Gothic, an often-copied interpretation of the solemn pride of American farmers. The painting shows a serious-looking man and a woman standing in front of a farmhouse. He was strongly influenced by medieval artist
21、s and inspired by the Gothic window of an old farmhouse, but the faces in his composition were what captured the worlds attention.1930年,格兰特伍德因其画作美国哥特人举成名。此画体现了美国 农民庄严的自豪,常常被人复制。画面展示了一位神色严肃的男子和一位女子 站立在农舍之前。伍德深受中世纪艺术家的影响,他的灵感来自于一所古老农 舍的哥特式窗户,但最令世界注目的是画中人物的脸。para 10Wood liked to paint faces he knew wel
22、l. For the grave, farmer he used his dentist, a sour-looking man. For the woman standing alongside him, the artist chose his sister, Nan. He stretched the models necks a bit, but there was no doubt who posed for the portrait.伍徳喜欢画他熟悉的脸。为画神色严肃的农夫,他选择了他那表情本讷的牙 医,至于站在他身边的农妇,他选择了自己的姐姐南。 他把模特的脖子稍稍 画长了一些,
23、但无疑能看出谁是画像的原型。para 12Today, American coins honor prominent figures of the US governmentmostly famous former presidents. But the Buffalo nickel, produced from 1913 to 1938 , honored a pair of connected tragedies from the settlement of the American frontierthe destruction of the buffalo herd sand the
24、American Indians.今天,美国的硬币都用来纪念美国政府的杰出人物,其中大部分是著名的前总 统。但1913至1938年间发行的野牛银币,却是为了纪念由美国拓居引起的两 起相互关联的悲剧野牛群的灭绝和美洲印第安人的毁灭。para 17After the war, a character called Uncle Sam began appearing in political cartoons, his form evolving from an earlier cartoon character called Brother Jonathan that was popular du
25、ring the American Revolution. Uncle Sam soon replaced Brother Jonathan as Americans most popular symbol. The most enduring portrait of Uncle Sam was created by artist James Montgomery Flagg in his famous army recruiting posters of World Wars I and II. That version-a tall man with white hair and a sm
26、all white beard on his chin, a dark blue coat and a tall hat with stars on itwas a self-portrait of Flagg.战后,政治漫画里开始出现个名叫“山姆大叔”的人物。他的原型是个早 期漫画人物,名叫乔纳森大哥,此人在美国独立战争时期非常出名。 很快,山 姆大叔就取代了乔纳森大哥,成了最受美国人欢迎的象征。最令人难忘的山姆 大叔的画像是由画家詹姆斯蒙哥马利弗拉格创作的,用在两次世界大战期间 他画的很多著名的征兵招贴画上。 山姆大叔的形象是:高个子,白头发,下巴 上有一小撮白胡子,身着深蓝色外套,头戴顶
27、高帽,上有星星点缀。这模样其 实就是弗拉格的自画像。unit 7para 1Hes the most famous businessman and the richest man in the worldworth an estimated $40 billion in 1997. Without a doubt, Bill Gates belongs in the same class as Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, and other great minds who changed the world. The self-described
28、 hacker has dominated the personal computing revolution and modernized the whole world in the process. Indeed, his classification into any other rank than this would seriously understate his impact on the world.他是当今世上最著名的商人、最有钱的富豪1997年他的资产预计为400 亿美元。毫无疑问,他与托马斯爱迪生、亚历山大格雷厄姆贝尔以及其 他改变世界的伟人属于同一行列。这个自称为“黑
29、客”的人主导着个人计算机 革命,并在这过程中使整个世界现代化。的确,将他划入任何其他行列,都 可能大大淡化他对世界的影响。para 2Gates success stems from his personality: an unbelievable and at times frightening blend of high-voltage brilliance, drive and competitiveness. When the chairman and CEO walks through the corridors of Microsoft, it is like a switch b
30、eing turned on; everything and everyone around him is charged with 10000 volts of electricity. Gates sets the example and Microsoft employees follow. The schedule he keeps is one hint as to what he expects from his employees. Its not unusual for the dean of the Microsoft campus to put in 16-hour day
31、s.盖茨的成功源自他的人格:他华横溢、冲劲十足、争强好胜,这些加在 起令人难以置信,有时甚至令人畏惧。当这位董事长兼首席执行官走过微软大 楼的走廊时,他身边的人和物就像被打开了电源,充了一万伏电。 盖茨树立了 榜样,微软的员紧随其后。他的工作安排暗示着他对员的期待。这位“微 软校园”的“校长”经常每天工作16小时。para 3Indeed, if theres one thing that distinguishes the Gates style, it is his time management skills. Conservation of time, energy, and focu
32、s are his hallmarks. He moves between playing the role of international spokesman for the age of technology and planning business strategy back at headquarters, getting the maximum amount of work possible out of every minute. Always punctual and always in high gear, he typically leaves only the tini
33、est cracks in the day for eating, talking to friends or recreation. The joke around Microsoft is that his receptionist is the hardest working person in the world. In fact, he has several receptionists. He probably needs one just to arrange his travel plans and visas to foreign countries.的确,如果说盖茨的风格与
34、他人有别的话,那就是他把握时间的技能。节 约时间、精力充沛和专心致志是他的突出特点。他会儿充当技术时代的国际 代言人,一会儿在微软总部谋划经营策略,充分利用每一分钟,最大限度的开展 工作。他总是准时,总是处于高速运转状态,他习惯利用白天的点滴空闲进餐、 与朋友交谈或娱乐。微软人笑话他的接待员是天底下最勤奋的人。事实上,他 有儿个接待员。他或许需要有人专门安排他的旅行计划和去国外的签证。para 7When Bill Gates was in the sixth grade, his parents sent him to see a psychologist. After a year of
35、sessions and tests, the psychologist reached his conclusion. Youre going to lose, he told Gates mother Mary. You had better just adjust to it because theres no use trying to beat him. In the 22 years since he dropped out of Harvard to conquer the world of computer operating systems and application s
36、oftware, he has been deadly for competitors trying to claw their way into the market.比尔盖茨读六年级时,他父母送他去看心理医生。一年后,经过多次看 医生和检查,医生有了结论。“您管不了他的,”他对盖茨的母亲玛丽说。“最 好接受现实,打他是不管用的。”自从盖茨从哈佛退学转去攻克计算机操作系 统和应用软件,22年来他一直是那些企图挤进这个市场的竞争对手的死敌。para 8In early 1975, at the age of 19, while at Harvard University, he and Pau
37、l Allen wrote an interpreter for the programming language used by MITS Altair; the first commercially available personal computer. It was their intense relationshipGates the workaholic code writer and competitor; Allen the dreamy visionary-that laid the first brick in the foundation of Microsoft.197
38、5年初,他19岁,还在哈佛大学读书,他和保罗艾伦写了一份程序设 计语言的编译程序,供MITS (微仪表和自动系统公司)的Altair电脑用,这是 第一台商业个人电脑。盖茨是个勤奋的编码者和竞争对手,而艾伦却是个充满 幻想的梦想家,正是他们的这种密切关系给微软垫定了第一块砖。unit 7para 1At first it was just plain surprising. Word that scientists succeeded in cloning an adult mammalan achievement long thought impossible-caught the imagi
39、nation of everyone. The laboratory process that produced Dolly, an unremarkable-looking sheep, theoretically would work for humans as well. A world with human clones was suddenly within reach. It was science fiction coming to life.起初,这对人们绝对是个震惊。有消息称科学家已经成功克隆了一只成年 哺乳动物,项长期以来被认为是不可能的成就。这传闻引发了每个人的想象。 克
40、隆多莉(只相貌无奇的绵羊)的实验过程,从理论上说也同样适用于克隆人 类。个克隆人的世界突然间近在咫尺,科幻小说变成了现实。para 7Perhaps, if the body is fresh, says one expert. The cloning method used requires combining an egg cell with the nucleus of a cell containing the DNA of the person to be cloned. (DNA is a very long, ribbon-like molecule that contains
41、our genetic information.) And that means that the nucleus must be intact. Cells die and the cell nucleus begins to break apart after death. But, yes, in theory at least it might be possible.有位专家说,如果是刚死去不久,也许就可能。 所使用的克隆方法要求将 个卵细胞和一个含有被克隆人的DNA的细胞核相结合。(DNA是种含有我 们的基因信息的狭长带状分子。)这就意味着细胞核必须保持完整。而人死 之后,细胞死亡
42、,细胞核就开始分裂。但是,的确,至少从理论上说克隆死去 的人是可能的。para 9Identical genes dont produce identical people, as anyone who knows a set of identical twins can tell you. In fact, twins are more alike than clones would be, since they have at least shared the same environment within the mother, are usually raised in the sam
43、e family, and so forth. Parents could clone a second child who resembled their first in appearance, but all the evidence suggests the two would have very different personalities. Twins separated at birth do sometimes share personality characteristics, but such characteristics in a cloned son or daug
44、hter would only be reminders of the child who was lost.相同的基因不会复制出相同的人。任何认识一些双胞胎的人都知道这一点。 事实上,双胞胎相像的程度胜于克隆人,因为他们至少在母体内分享过相同的环 境,通常也在同一个家庭里被抚养长大,等等。父母可能克隆出个面貌与第一个孩子相似的人,但是所有的证据都表明,这两个人的个性会有很大差异。 出生就被分开的双胞胎,有时可能有相同的个性特征,但是这样的特征出现在克 隆的儿子或女儿身上,却只能令人想起失去的孩子。para 11What if parents decided to clone a child
45、in order to harvest organs? 如果父母决定克隆一个孩子以获得器官,那会怎样?para 16That still leaves some confusion over vocabulary. The editorial director of one dictionary says that the noun donee may sound like a good term, but its not clear enough. Instead, he prefers original and copy.这样做还是留下了一些词汇上的难题。一本词典的主编说,名词“被克隆者”
46、听起来不错,但却不够明晰。他更愿意用“母本”和“副本”。para 18The gravest concern isnt really cloning itself, but genetic engineeringthe deliberate altering of genes to create human beings according to certain requirements. Specifically, some experts are concerned about the creation of a new (and disrespected) social class: t
47、he clones. One expert believes the situation could be comparable to what occurred in the 16th century, when Europeans puzzled over how to classify the unfamiliar inhabitants of the Americas, and endlessly debated whether or not they were最让人担心的不是克隆本身,而是基因工程即根据特定的要求故意改变 基因来创造人类。具体地说,有些专家担心会出现个新的(和不被尊重
48、的) 社会阶层,即“克隆阶层,有位专家相信,这情形类似于16世纪时的种 情况,当时的欧洲人对如何对美洲的陌生居民进行归类感到困惑,并无休止地争 论他们究竟是不是人类。unit 9para 3Prenuptial agreementsor prenups-are designed to address these problems as they arise. Prenups are negotiated by lawyers for the prospective spouses, and signed before a minister binds them in marriage. They have been gaining in acceptance in the United States since the early s, when more states began passin
