Lesson one
1.
Virtue is,
indeed must be, self
-
centere
d.(para4)
正确的行动是，确实也必须是以自我为中心的。
By right action, we mean it
must help promote personal interest.
2.
The
essentials
are
familiar:
the
poverty
of
the
poor
was
the
fault
of
the
poor.
And
it
was
because it was product
of their excessive fecundity…..(para5)
他的基本观点为人熟知：穷人的贫穷是他们咎由自取，贫穷是热门过度生育的结果
The poverty of the poor was
caused by their having too many children.
3.
Poverty
being
caused
in
the
bed
meant
that
the
rich
were
not
responsible
for
either
its
creation or its amelioration.
(para6)
贫穷源于过度生育意味着富人不应该为产生贫
穷和解决贫穷承担责任
The
rich
were
not
to
blame
for
the
existence
of
poverty
so
they
should
not
be
asked
to
undertake the task of solving the
problem.
4.
It is merely the working
out of a law of nature and a law of
God(para8)
这是自然规律和上帝的意志在起作用。
It
is
only
the
result
or
effect
of
the
law
of
the
survival
of
the
fittest
applied
to
nature
or
to
human society.
5.
It
declined in popularity, and reference to it
acquired a condemnatory tone.(para9)
然而在
20
世纪，人们认为社会学中的达尔
文进化论有点过于残酷，遭到了普遍的质疑，人
们提及它都带有谴责的口吻。
People began to reject Social
Darwinism because it seemed to glorify brutal
force and oppose
treasured values of
sympathy, love and friendship. Therefore, when it
was mentioned, it was
usually the
target of criticism.
6.
In recent
years, however, it has become clear that the
search for a way of getting the poor off
our conscience was not at an end; it
was only suspended.(para11)
然而，
最近几年，
很显然我们又在试图寻求不为穷人的存在而内
疚的办法．
这种尝试并没有
结束，
而只是曾经中断过一段时间。
The
desire to find a way to justify the unconcern for
the poor had not been abandoned; it had
1
/
12
only been put off.
7.
In fact, we
have in the United States an extraordinarily good
public service one made up of
talented
and
dedicated
people
who
are
overwhelmingly
honest
and
only
rarely
given
to
overpaying for monkey wrenches,
flashlights, coffee makers, and toilet
seats(para13)
实际上，
美国有非常优秀的公共服务队伍一支由富有才于和敬业精神的人组成的队伍，
他们
非常诚实，
以致像出高价购实活动扳手、
手
电筒、
咖啡壶以及马桶坐圈以获取回扣的情况及
为罕见
Government officials, on the
whole, are good; it is very rare that some would
pay high prices
for office equipment to
get kickbacks.
8.
This is perhaps our most highly
influential piece of fiction. (para15)
这种说法也许是我
们最有影响的一个虚构故事。
It
is a very popular story and has been accepted by
many but it is not true.
9.
Belief can be
the servant of truth
---
but
even more of convenience.(para16)
信念可以是真理的仆人，但更多的情况下只是一时之需。
Belief can be useful in the search for
truth. But more often than not it is accepted
because it is
convenient and
self
-
serving.
10.
George
Gilder, a greatly favored figure of the recent
past, who tells to much applause that the
poor must have the cruel spur of their
own suffering to ensure effort.(para20)
11.
最近深受欢迎的乔治吉尔德在
众人的支持声中宣称穷人应该承受一定的痛苦，
才
能受到
激励而努力改变现状；
George Gilder advances the view that
only when the poor suffer from great misery will
they be
stimulated to make great
efforts to change the situation; in other words,
suffering is necessary
to force the
poor to work hard.
Lesson
two
1.
But these
marks of wild country called to my father like the
legendary siren song.
可是正是这些
特征，像希腊神话里海妖那动听的歌声一样，诱惑着爸爸。
Though the place was not
pleasant and disagreeable to other people, they
were the very things
that fascinated my
father
---
its unexplored,
uncultivated natural state, and the challenge. The
attractions were irresistible to my
father, just like the legendary siren song to
sailors.

2.
us if it
did.
“我怕天就要黑了，”
我解
释到，心里想天真的黑了，会有什么样更大的灾难降
临到我们头上。
As a little girl, I
believed my father's words, and was genuinely
afraid of the possible
disaster
--
if
we
didn't hurry up, the day would catch us and
terrible things might happen.
3....from time to time he was
halfheartedly sought for trial, though few crimes
seemed to lead
directly to his door.
警察们时不时地例行公事，
试图逮捕他，
但似
乎找不出他违法的具体证据。
In
this
place, though
the
police wound make some
effort without
real
earnest to
investigate
Watson and bring him to court, there
seemed to be little concrete evidence to prove
that he
was responsible for certain
illegal activities.
stranglehold Watson had over this section of
Florida was not dissimilar to the unscrupulous
activities of certain lawmen, other
legal crooks, and even governors that our state
was to suffer
through
its
history.
沃森在佛罗里达州这一地区的恶霸行为与我们在后
来所遭受的某些执法
者、法律骗子，甚至一些地方官员们的无耻行径毫无二致。
The control Watson
had over this part of Florida was much similar to
the dishonest or illegal
activities
of
the
law
-
enforcing
officials
and
governors
which
Florida
witnessed
in
the
20th
century.
5.
There was the little shack, not the most gracious
of living quarters, and there was a murderer
for our nearest and only neighbor,
about thirty miles away.
小岛上有一个简陋的木屋，算不
上
很好的居住场所，唯一的近邻就是住在
30
< br>英里外的杀人犯沃森。
Before the family built their own
house, they lived in a shabby cabin at Gopher Key,
close to the
merciless Watson.
Richard in his gluttony
never sat at a table more sumptuous than ours was
three times a
day...
即使是讲究美食的
国王理查德也不可能像我们一样一日三餐吃着如此丰盛的野味。
We had abundant food on the
island, and even the meals enjoyed by King
Richard, who was
famous for his love of
food, couldn't possibly compare with ours.
e the unrelenting heat, we
were happy to be let off from our hours of school
indoors,
sessions which our mother kept
every day, rain or shine.
尽管烈日当头，
我们却很高兴不用在屋
里上课；平时每天的这个时候，无论晴天还是下雨，妈妈
都要给我们上课。
Although it was very hot outside in the
sun, we were happy to be dismissed from my
mother's
sessions
indoors.
We
would
have
to
read
and
write
with
her
every
day
no
matter
what
the
weather was like.

Unit 3
1.
Even droughts,
floods and heat waves may become unwitting acts of
man. (para2)
甚至干旱、洪水、热电波等都可能是人类的无心之过
What people do may unintentionally
cause droughts, floods and heat waves.
2.
But this
image, now repeatedly thrust before us in
photographs, posters, and advertisements,
is misleading.(para4)
但这种曾无数次展现在我们面前的照片海报和广告上的景象都是误导
The
Earth
we
see
in
photos,
posters,
and
ads,
which
appears
so
beautiful,
is
not
the
true
reflection of the world we live
in.
3.
The technosphere has become
sufficiently large and intense to alter the
natural processes that
govern the
ecosphere.(para5)
如此庞大和强烈的技术圈已经改变了控制生态圈的自然进程
Human activities have taken place over
such large areas and with such intensity that they
have
already caused disastrous effects
on ecology.
4. ...which
could establish itself only because it fitted
properly into the preexisting
system.(para6)
但正因为鱼能适应这一业已存在的系统，它才得以立足。
The fish could play its role because it
became a necessary link with the processes
preceding it
and the processes
following it in the ecological system.
5.
Defined
so
narrowly,
it
is
no
surprise
that
cars
have
properties
that
are
hostile
to
their
environment.(para8)
< br>若只为迎合买者和生产商汽车具有不利于环境的性能也就不足为奇了。
When cars are produced to serve such
narrow purposes, it is not surprising that some of
their
characteristic qualities are
harmful to the environment.
rose, but not in proportion to the rate of
fertilizer application...(para9)
产量提高了，却与肥料投入量不成正比
The farmers applied more and more
chemical fertilizer, but production did not
increase at the
same rate.
7.
...their
waste

flushed
into
the
sewer

treatment
plant...(para11)
而它们的废物被冲送下水
道，经处置后成分发生了改变但数量没有变化．
People, after digestion, excrete the
waste which is flushed into the sewer system. The
sewage
goes
to
a
treatment
plant
which
modifies
it,
but
it
is
still
waste
after
being
processed.
The
waste does not reenter the life cycle
but disturbs the natural processes wherever it is
dumped.
8. Left to their own
devices, ecosystems are
conservative...(para12)
若生态小
环境保持其自身的方式，它们将几乎保持不变，进化速度十分锺慢。
If the ecosystems are not
upset by outside intrusion, they will remain the
same with very little
change
9.
In
contrast
to
the
ecosphere,
the
technosphere
is
composed
of
objects
and
materials
that
reflect a rapid and relentless process
of change and variation.(para13)
与生态圈相反，技术圈是由线性流程决定的
The characteristics of the objects and
materials in the technosphere are rapid change and
great
variety.
10.
But this is done only at
the cost of understanding.(para18)
但这种做法却是以我们的理解为代价的
If we take sides in the war
of the two worlds, we are doing so at the risk of
failing to have a
clear understanding
of the nature and cause of the war. Thus, we lose
the chance to really solve
the grave
environmental crisis.
Unit4
1.
How all my own
territory would be altered, as if a landslide had
gone through it and skimmed
off all
meaning except loss of Mike.(para13)
我的世界发生了天翻地覆的变化，就像发生了山崩，除了迈克的离去，其余
< br>
的所有记忆都
被冲掉了。
The
impact
of
Mike's
leaving
on
my
life
was
beyond
my
imagination.
I
didn't
expect
that
Mike's leaving would
have such a tremendous power that it would change
the meaning of my
existence completely.
All my thoughts were about loss of Mike
2.
During that time of life that is
supposed to be a reproductive daze, with the
woman's mind all
swamped by maternal
juices, we were still compelled to discuss Simone
de Beauvoir and Arthur

/
12
Koestler and
生命中的那段时光本应是忙于照着孩子，
大脑处在一种产后带来的恍惚忙碌中，
可我们却讨
论着西蒙
·波娃、阿瑟·凯斯特勒以及《鸡尾酒会儿》
At that
time we were young mothers, and we were supposed
to lead a terribly busy life full of
confusion and bewilderment caused by
giving birth to and raising babies. And our minds
were
supposed to be fully occupied by
how to feed the babies and things like that.
However, in the
midst of all this we
still felt the need to discuss some of the
important thinkers of our time like
Simone
de
Beauvoir
and
Arthur
Koestler
and
T.
&
Eliot's
sophisticated
work
Cocktail
Party
3.
...I would be
frightened, not of any hostility but of a kind of
nonexistence.(para25)
这时我会感
觉到害怕不是因为人们之
间的不友好，而是因为我感到自己不复存在。
I would be frightened, and my fear was
not caused by my neighbors' visibly hostile and
violent
way
of
lifts
but
by
a
kind
of
formless
and
hidden
emptiness
and
meaninglessness
of
human
existence.
What
happened
around
me
was totally
irrelevant
to me,
and
I
felt
very
isolated
and
alienated.
4. She did not
ask me
---
was it delicacy or
disapproval?
---
about my new
life.(para29)
她没有询问我的新生活，或是缘
于不便提起，或是出于对我的新生活的不赞同
She did
not ask me about my new life, either out of subtle
consideration for my feeling about
this
sensitive subject or out of disapproval of my new
life style.
5.
It would be a sleazy thing to do, in
the house of his friends.(para49)
在他朋友
的家里，那的确是很不应该做的事。
It
would
be
a
morally
low
thing,
an
indecent
thing
to
commit
infidelity
in
the
house
of
a
friend.
6.
I
knew now that he was a person who had hit rock
bottom.(para88)
我现在知道，他是世上最不幸的人
.
I knew that he was a person who had experienced
the worst in life, the hardest experience a
person might have to endure.
7.
He and wife
knew that together and it bound them, as something
like that would either break
you apart
or bind you, for life.(para88)
