綜合教程Book 1背誦段落原文及譯文

1、Book 1 Unit 1 (paras 5-6)突然我就想描述那一切，描述當(dāng)時(shí)那種溫馨美好的氣氛，但我把它寫(xiě)下來(lái)僅僅是想自得其樂(lè)，而不是為弗利格爾先生而寫(xiě)。那是我想重新捕捉并珍藏在心中的一個(gè)時(shí)刻。我想重溫那個(gè)夜晚的愉快。然而，照我希望的那樣去寫(xiě)，就會(huì)違反我在學(xué)校里學(xué)的正式作文的種種法則，弗利格爾先生也肯定會(huì)打它一個(gè)不及格。沒(méi)關(guān)系。等我為自己寫(xiě)好了之后，我可以再為弗利格爾先生寫(xiě)點(diǎn)什么別的東西。等我寫(xiě)完時(shí)已是半夜時(shí)分，再?zèng)]時(shí)間為弗利格爾先生寫(xiě)一篇循規(guī)蹈矩、像模像樣的文章了。第二天上午，我別無(wú)選擇，只好把我為自己而寫(xiě)的貝爾維爾晚餐的故事交了上去。兩天后弗利格爾先生發(fā)還批改過(guò)的作文，他把別人的都發(fā)了

2、，就是沒(méi)有我的。我正準(zhǔn)備著遵命一放學(xué)就去弗利格爾先生那兒挨訓(xùn)，卻看見(jiàn)他從桌上拿起我的作文，敲了敲桌子讓大家注意聽(tīng)。Suddenly I wanted to write about that, about the warmth and good feeling of it, but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy, not for Mr. Fleagle. It was a moment I wanted to recapture and hold for myself. I wanted to relive the pleasure

3、of that evening. To write it as I wanted, however, would violate all the rules of formal composition I'd learned in school, and Mr. Fleagle would surely give it a failing grade. Never mind. I would write something else for Mr. Fleagle after I had written this thing for myself.When I finished it

4、the night was half gone and there was no time left to compose a proper, respectable essay for Mr. Fleagle. There was no choice next morning but to turn in my tale of the Belleville supper. Two days passed before Mr. Fleagle returned the graded papers, and he returned everyone's but mine. I was p

5、reparing myself for a command to report to Mr. Fleagle immediately after school for discipline when I saw him lift my paper from his desk and knock for the class's attention.Book 1 Unit 3 （paras 1-2）無(wú)論我們是否愿意，我們生活的世界在過(guò)去一百年間已經(jīng)變化了許多，而且在未來(lái)的一百年里可能變化更多。有人想中止這種種變化，回到那個(gè)他們認(rèn)為更純潔更樸素的時(shí)代。但正如歷史所表明的，過(guò)去并非那么美妙。過(guò)

6、去對(duì)享有特權(quán)的少數(shù)人不算太糟，但即便他們也無(wú)從享受現(xiàn)代醫(yī)療，而生育對(duì)婦女來(lái)說(shuō)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)極大。對(duì)占人口大多數(shù)的民眾而言，生活是艱難、殘忍而又短暫的。不管怎樣，即使有人想這么做，他也無(wú)法將時(shí)鐘撥回到早先的時(shí)代。知識(shí)與技術(shù)不可能說(shuō)忘就忘了。也沒(méi)有人能阻止未來(lái)的進(jìn)一步發(fā)展。即使所有用于研究的政府資金都被取消 (現(xiàn)政府最擅長(zhǎng)此事)，競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的力量仍將繼續(xù)帶來(lái)技術(shù)的發(fā)展。更何況，沒(méi)有人能阻止探究求索之士去思索基礎(chǔ)科學(xué)，無(wú)論他們是否會(huì)為此得到酬勞。唯一能阻止進(jìn)一步發(fā)展的辦法或許是一個(gè)壓制任何新事物的全球政府，但人類(lèi)的進(jìn)取心與創(chuàng)造力如此旺盛，即便這個(gè)政府也不會(huì)成功。它所能做到的只是延緩變化的速度。Whether we

7、like it or not, the world we live in has changed a great deal in the last hundred years, and it is likely to change even more in the next hundred. Some people would like to stop these changes and go back to what they see as a purer and simpler age. But as history shows, the past was not that wonderf

8、ul. It was not so bad for a privileged minority, though even they had to do without modern medicine, and childbirth was highly risky for women. But for the vast majority of the population, life was nasty, brutish, and short.Anyway, even if one wanted to, one couldn't put the clock back to an ear

9、lier age. Knowledge and techniques can't just be forgotten. Nor can one prevent further advances in the future. Even if all government money for research were cut off (and the present government is doing its best), the force of competition would still bring about advances in technology. Moreover

10、, one cannot stop inquiring minds from thinking about basic science, whether or not they are paid for it. The only way to prevent further developments would be a global state that suppressed anything new, and human initiative and inventiveness are such that even this wouldn't succeed. All it wou

11、ld do is slow down the rate of change.Book 1 Unit 4 (paras 30-33)托尼去世后，我一直想著他的經(jīng)歷。他的形象在我心目中越來(lái)越高大。最后，我覺(jué)得他就和美國(guó)那些最大的實(shí)業(yè)家一樣高大、自豪。他們都通過(guò)同樣的途徑，本著同樣的價(jià)值觀和原則獲得了成功：遠(yuǎn)見(jiàn)、執(zhí)著、自制、樂(lè)觀、自尊，以及最重要的，正直。托尼不是從最低一級(jí)階梯往上爬的，他是從地下室往上爬的。托尼的事業(yè)很小，那些最大的實(shí)業(yè)家的事業(yè)很大。但究其實(shí)，兩者的資產(chǎn)負(fù)債表完全一樣。唯一的不同是你把小數(shù)點(diǎn)點(diǎn)在什么地方。托尼·特里韋索諾來(lái)到美國(guó)尋求美國(guó)夢(mèng)。但他沒(méi)有找到什么美國(guó)夢(mèng)他為自己創(chuàng)

12、造了一個(gè)美國(guó)夢(mèng)。他的全部擁有是一天寶貴的24小時(shí)，而他一刻也沒(méi)有浪費(fèi)。After he passed away, I thought more and more about Tony's career. He grew in stature in my mind. In the end, I think he stood as tall, and as proud, as the greatest American industrialists.They had all reached their success by the same route and by the same va

13、lues and principles: vision, determination, self-control, optimism, self-respect and, above all, integrity.Tony did not begin on the bottom rung of the ladder. He began in the basement. Tony's affairs were tiny; the greatest industrialists' affairs were giant. But, after all, the balance she

14、ets were exactly the same. The only difference was where you put the decimal point.Tony Trivisonno came to America seeking the American Dream. But he didn't find it he created it for himself. All he had were 24 precious hours a day, and he wasted none of them.Book 1 Unit 6 (paras 12-15)她站在那兒，蒼白的

15、圓臉顯得溫柔理智，灰色的眼睛透出熱情善良。我沒(méi)有遲疑。我手里緊握著那本小小的讓她辨認(rèn)我的藍(lán)色羊皮面舊書(shū)。這不會(huì)是愛(ài)情，但將是某種珍貴的、或許比愛(ài)情更美妙的東西，一種我曾經(jīng)感激，并將永遠(yuǎn)感激的友情。我挺胸站立，敬了個(gè)禮，并舉起手中的書(shū)好讓那位女士看。不過(guò)在我開(kāi)口說(shuō)話的時(shí)候，失望的痛苦幾乎使我哽咽?！拔沂羌s翰·布蘭查德中尉，想必您就是梅奈爾小姐。很高興您來(lái)見(jiàn)我?？煞裾?qǐng)您賞光吃飯？”婦女的臉上綻開(kāi)了笑容?！拔也恢朗窃趺椿厥拢⒆?，”她回答說(shuō)，“可是剛才走過(guò)去的那位穿綠色套裝的姑娘，她央求我把這支玫瑰插在衣服上。她還說(shuō)，要是你請(qǐng)我吃飯的話，我就告訴你，她就在街對(duì)面那個(gè)大飯店里等你。她說(shuō)這是

16、一種考驗(yàn)！”And there she stood. Her pale, round face was gentle and sensible, her gray eyes had a warm and kindly glow. I did not hesitate.My fingers gripped the small worn blue leather copy of the book that was to identify me to her. This would not be love, but it would be something precious, something

17、perhaps even better than love, a friendship for which I had been and must ever be grateful.I squared my shoulders and saluted and held out the book to the woman, even though while I spoke I felt choked by the bitterness of my disappointment."I'm Lieutenant John Blanchard, and you must be Mi

18、ss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner?"The woman's face broadened into a smile. "I don't know what this is about, son," she answered, "but the young lady in the green suit who just went by, she begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she

19、 said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should go and tell you that she is waiting for you in the big restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!"Book 1 Unit 7 (paras 1-2)多年來(lái)，我寫(xiě)了大量關(guān)于動(dòng)物智能實(shí)驗(yàn)，以及圍繞這些實(shí)驗(yàn)所產(chǎn)生的爭(zhēng)議的文章。動(dòng)物真的有思想，即我們所說(shuō)的意識(shí)嗎？人們往往通過(guò)教動(dòng)物人類(lèi)手勢(shì)語(yǔ)的實(shí)驗(yàn)來(lái)探索動(dòng)物的智能，我常在考慮是否會(huì)有比這更好的方式，并

20、悟出了現(xiàn)在看來(lái)是顯而易見(jiàn)的一點(diǎn)：如果動(dòng)物能思維，它們的最佳思維會(huì)發(fā)生在自身確有這一需要的時(shí)候，而不是產(chǎn)生于科學(xué)家讓它們思維的時(shí)候。于是我開(kāi)始與獸醫(yī)、動(dòng)物研究人員以及動(dòng)物園飼養(yǎng)員交談。他們大都不研究動(dòng)物智能，但他們每天都遭遇動(dòng)物的智能與動(dòng)物的智能欠缺。他們講述的故事開(kāi)啟了我相信是研究動(dòng)物智能的一扇新的窗口：即動(dòng)物在對(duì)付樊籠生活和地球上的主宰物種人類(lèi)時(shí)所表現(xiàn)的高超的思維技能。Over the years, I have written extensively about animal-intelligence experiments and the controversy that surrounds them.
