9、e neighborhood kids to come to my house for some out-of-controlkid-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 taught Jimmy practical things like how to brush his teeth or put on abelt.My father,a s
10、aint,simply held the house together with his patience andunderstanding.I was in charge outside where I administered justice by trackingdown the parents of the kids who picked on my brother,and telling on them.我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。p
11、ara 4So when my father died of a heart attack in 1991,Jimmy was a wreck,beneathhis careful disguise.He was simply in disbelief.Usually very agreeable,he nowquit speaking altogether and no amount of words could penetrate the vacantexpression he wore on his face.I hired someone to live with him and dr
12、ive him towork,but no matter how much I tried to make things stay the same,even Jimmygrasped that the world hed known was gone.One day I asked,You miss Dad,dont you?His lips quivered and then 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
13、,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,他是一个令人愉快的人,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一起,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 forboth his limitations a
14、nd my ambitions.In fact,caring for someone who loves asdeeply and appreciates my efforts as much as Jimmy does has enriched my life morethan anything else ever could have.当然,母亲的话没错: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,关照像吉米这样一个深爱又感激我的人,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 Jimmy
15、s world overnight,September thchanged our lives;the world wed known was gone.But,as we sang for Jimmy andheld each other tight afterward praying for peace around the world,we werereminded that the constant love and support of our friends and family would get usthrough whatever life might present.The
16、 simplicity with which Jimmy hadreconciled everything for us should not have been surprising.There had neverbeen any limitations to what Jimmys love could accomplish.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
17、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,anddisplayed them in Philadelphia.It is said that he had used his wifes arm as themodel,but felt her face was too beautiful for the statue.He needed someonewhose face represented sufferi
18、ng 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。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。他需要这样一个女人: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,Barbarawho declines
19、 interviews but is said tohave loved the dollmay 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,anoften-copied interpretation of the solemn pride of American farme
20、rs.The paintingshows a serious-looking man and a woman standing in front of a farmhouse.Hewas strongly influenced by medieval artists and inspired by the Gothic window of anold farmhouse,but the faces in his composition were what captured the worldsattention.1930年,格 兰 特 伍 德 因 其 画 作 美国哥特人一举成名。此画体现了美国
21、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 well.For the grave,farmer he used his dentist,asour-looking man.For the woman standing alongside him,the artist chose hissister,Nan.He stretched the models necks a bit
22、,but there was no doubt whoposed for the portrait.伍德喜欢画他熟悉的脸。为画神色严肃的农夫,他选择了他那表情木讷的牙医,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,但无疑能看出谁是画像的原型。para 12Today,American coins honor prominent figures of the US governmentmostlyfamous former presidents.But the Buffalo nickel,produced from 1913 to 1938,honored a p
23、air of connected tragedies from the settlement of the Americanfrontierthe destruction of the buffalo herd sand the 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 pol
24、itical cartoons,his form evolving from an earlier cartoon character called Brother Jonathan that waspopular during the American Revolution.Uncle Sam soon replaced BrotherJonathan as Americans most popular symbol.The most enduring portrait ofUncle Sam was created by artist James Montgomery Flagg in h
25、is famous armyrecruiting posters of World Wars I and II.That version-a tall man with white hairand a small white beard on his chin,a dark blue coat and a tall hat with stars onitwas a self-portrait of Flagg.战后,政治漫画里开始出现一个名叫“山姆大叔”的人物。他的原型是一个早期漫画人物,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
26、。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,头戴一顶高帽,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 anestimated$40 billion in 1997.Without a doubt,Bill Gates belongs in the same classas Thomas Edi
27、son,Alexander Graham Bell,and other great minds who changed theworld.The self-described hacker has dominated the personal computingrevolution and modernized the whole world in the process.Indeed,hisclassification into any other rank than this would seriously understate his impact onthe world.他是当今世上最
28、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“黑客”的人主导着个人计算机革命,并在这一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 timesfrightening blend of high-voltage brilliance,drive and competitiveness.When thecha
29、irman and CEO walks through the corridors of Microsoft,it is like a switch beingturned on;everything and everyone around him is charged with 10000 volts ofelectricity.Gates sets the example and Microsoft employees follow.Theschedule he keeps is one hint as to what he expects from his employees.Its n
30、otunusual for the Hdean of the Microsoft campus to put in 16-hour days.盖茨的成功源自他的人格:他才华横溢、冲劲十足、争强好胜,这些加在一起令人难以置信,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,微软的员工紧随其后。他的工作安排暗示着他对员工的期待。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
31、 his timemanagement skills.Conservation of time,energy,and focus are his hallmarks.Hemoves between playing the role of international spokesman for the age oftechnology and planning business strategy back at headquarters,getting themaximum amount of work possible out of every minute.Always punctual a
32、ndalways in high gear,he typically leaves only the tiniest cracks in the day for eating,talking to friends or recreation.The joke around Microsoft is that his receptionistis the hardest working person in the world.In fact,he has several receptionists.He probably needs one just to arrange his travel
33、plans and visas to foreign countries.的确,如果说盖茨的风格与他人有别的话,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。他一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
34、 him to see apsychologist.After a year of sessions and tests,the psychologist reached hisconclusion.Youre going to lose,he told Gates mother Mary.You had betterjust adjust to it because theres no use trying to beat him.1 1 In the 22 years sincehe dropped out of Harvard to conquer the world of comput
35、er operating systems andapplication software,he has been deadly for competitors trying to claw their wayinto 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
36、Harvard University,he and Paul Allenwrote an interpreter for the programming language used by MITS Altair,the firstcommercially available personal computer.It was their intense relationshipGatesthe workaholic code writer and competitor,Allen the dreamy visionarythat laid thefirst brick in the founda
37、tion of Microsoft.1975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i块 石 专。unit 7para 1At first it was just plain surprising.Word that scientists succeeded in cloningan adult mammalan achievement long thought impossibl
38、ecaught theimagination of everyone.The laboratory process that produced Dolly,anunremarkable-looking sheep,theoretically would work for humans as well.A worldwith 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,一项长期以来被认为是不可能的成就。这一传闻引发
39、了每个人的想象。克隆多莉(一只相貌无奇的绵羊)的实验过程,从理论上说也同样适用于克隆人类。一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 usedrequires combining an egg cell with the nucleus of a cell containing the DNA of theperson to be cloned.(DNA is a very long,ribbon-like molecule that contai
40、ns ourgenetic information.)And that means that the nucleus must be intact.Cells dieand the cell nucleus begins to break apart after death.But,yes,in theory at least itmight 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一个卵细胞和一个含有被克隆人的DNA的细胞核相结合。(DNA是一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,细胞核就开始
41、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 ofidentical 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 usuallyraised in the same family,and so
42、 forth.Parents could clone a second child whoresembled their first in appearance,but all the evidence suggests the two wouldhave very different personalities.Twins separated at birth do sometimes sharepersonality characteristics,but such characteristics in a cloned son or daughterwould only be remin
43、ders 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。父母可能克隆出一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 in order to harvest organs?
44、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 onedictionary says that the noun donee may sound like a good term,but its not clearenough.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”听起来不错,但却不够明晰。他更愿意用“母本”和“副本”。para
45、18The gravest concern isnt really cloning itself,but genetic engineeringthedeliberate altering of genes to create human beings according to certainrequirements.Specifically,some experts are concerned about the creation of anew(and disrespected)social class:the clones.One expert believes thesituation
46、 could be comparable to what occurred in the 16th century,whenEuropeans 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一个新的(和不被尊重的)社会阶层,即“克隆阶层”。有位专家相信,这一情形类似于16世纪时的一种情况,当时的欧洲人对
47、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 problemsas they arise.Prenups are negotiated by lawyers for the prospective spouses,andsigned before a minister binds them in marriage.They have been gaining inacceptance in the United State
48、s since the early s,when more states began passinglaws that affected the division of financial assets in a divorce.The laws are basedeither on community property(split evenly)or on reasonable distribution(whatever a judge thinks is fair).婚前协议简 称prenups就是用来处理这些问题的。婚前协议由即将结婚的男女双方的律师共同协定,然后由双方在牧师宣布他们结为
49、夫妻之前签署。自20世 纪80年代初以来,婚前协议在美国被越来越多的人接受,因为当时越来越多的州开始通过关于离婚财产分配的法律。这些法律要么是基于“共有财产”(平均分配),要么是基于“合理分配”(法官认为怎样“公平”就怎样分)。para 6A typical candidate for a prenuptial agreement is a man who has accumulatedconsiderable wealth,has already been stung once,and wants to reduce his exposureto future problems.They w
50、ant to make their own arrangements,rather than leta court decide,said the president of the New York chapter of the AmericanAcademy of Marriage Lawyers.典型的想签订婚前协议的人是那些积累了大量财富、曾吃过苦头的男性,他们想减少日后的麻烦。“他们想自己安排解决,而不想让法庭裁决,”美国婚姻法律师协会纽约分会的会长说。para 7Protecting children from a previous marriage is a strong reas
