人类与地球（节选）

本世纪，在确定人类与地球关系的物质现实状况的两个因素方面发生了重大变化：一是人口突然惊人地增长——每十年增加相当于一个中国的人口；二是科学技术革命突然加速 / 突飞猛进，几乎难以想象地扩展了我们以焚烧、砍伐、挖掘、搬运、和转化构成地球的物质的方式来影响周围世界的能力 / 扩展了我们影响周围世界的能力，方式是焚烧、砍伐、挖掘、搬运和转化构成地球的物质。

人口剧增既是人类与地球关系发生变化的原因之一，又是显示 / 说明这一变化之惊人最显著的事例之一，从历史背景来看，尤其如此。自20万年前现代人出现到裘利斯·恺撒时代，地球上生活的人类还不到二亿五千万。1500年后，克里斯托弗·哥伦布扬帆启航去寻找新世界时，地球上大约有5亿人口。到1776年托马斯·杰斐逊起草《独立宣言》时，人口又翻了一番，到了10亿。到本世纪中叶，第二次世界大战结束时，人口刚好超过20亿。

同人口爆炸的情形一样，在18世纪，科技革命开始缓缓加速。这场不断发展的革命也突然以翻番的方式加速进行了。例如，现在许多科学领域有一句公论：近十年重大的发现比以往整个科学史上还要多。诚然，任何单一的新发现对于人类和地球的关系所造成的影响都不及 / 比不上核武器对人类和战争的关系所造成的影响那么深远。然而，这些科学发现合在一起，就从根本上改变了人类开发地球以求生存的累积的能力，使得不加节制的开发的后果不堪设想，同不加节制的核战争的后果毫无二致 / 一模一样 / 如出一辙。这是千真万确的。

Greening Our Future (II)

Ancient Chinese philosophers repeatedly / time and again / over and over

again emphasized / stressed man’s integration with nature as a supreme virtue / that

man’s integration with nature was a supreme virtue. Some advocated the golden

mean / the doctrine of the (golden) mean / the middle road, and others (advocated)

peacefulness with the world. These sparks of wisdom, unfortunately, / It is

unfortunate that these sparks of wisdom have been obscured by history for two

thousand years. Now it is time to convert / transform / change / turn these ideas into

action // put these ideas into practice.

Before I came to Britain, I read in the paper that, to prevent further soil erosion

/ the soil (from) being further eroded, local governments in western China have

prohibited / forbidden felling and provided new jobs for former timber cutters. I felt

/ was relieved to read that. But, at the same time, I was concerned / worried that

many people still ignored / turned a blind eye to the destruction of nature / the

destruction that nature suffered. The environmental issue is ultimately a social issue.

/ In the final analysis, the environmental issue is a social issue. As long as / So long

as there are people who pursue / seek short-term benefits at the expense of nature /

at the cost of sacrificing nature, nature will continue to suffer. We should have

long-term plans to use technology to restore nature / to restore nature by

technological means instead of robbing / plundering her // rather than rob / plunder

her; we should show greater care and love for Mother Nature and for all her

children.

I was born in a province in western China, where I once met a retired timber

cutter. He told me that, before his retirement / before he retired, he was awarded a

medal as the first man in China to cut 100,000 trees. After his retirement, however,

he made up his mind to plant / that he would plant twice as many trees as // twice /

double the trees he had cut down. Up to now, he has been planting trees for a dozen

years or so. I can still recall / call to mind his weather-beaten face, and his big,

coarse hands. I wish him to be still healthy. I wish the trees he has planted to be

thriving / flourishing / luxuriant. And most of all / above all / most importantly, I

hope that, just as this old man has been doing, all of us will give nature back / pay

nature back / repay nature twice as much as we take from her. Working with our

own hands, we will green our future.

奴隶制度与资本主义（二）

这就是说 / 这意味着，在从十五世纪至十九世纪末的四百年中，非洲因被抓去当奴隶或被屠杀而丧失了约六千五百万至七千五百万人；而且，这些人是非洲人中的精华，因为在通常情况下，人们不会把老弱病残抓去当奴隶。非洲各国人民能在这场空前的浩劫中幸存下来，而且今天比以前任何时候人数都更多，组织得更好，甚至即将获得彻底的民族解放，确实是人类历史的一大奇迹。

但是，非洲对欧洲资本主义、美洲殖民地以及美国资本主义的发展做出的最主要贡献，当然不在于奴隶贸易本身——尽管那是有利可图的——而在于奴隶制，在于上千万的黑人在长达两个多世纪的时间里被迫从事的无偿劳动 /

无偿的强迫劳动。

在说明美国资本主义发展迅速、规模巨大的原因时，史学家们指出了几个因素,这是正确的：一是美国幅员辽阔，资源极其丰富；二是远离 / 没有遭受欧洲那种连续不断的毁灭性战乱，战乱使美国的竞争对手倒退，而美国资产阶级却从中获取暴利；三是好几代人的时间里，欧洲人、亚洲人和拉丁美洲人移居美国，带来了技术和体力（还带来了种族差异，统治和剥削他们也因此而更

加容易）。四是长期存在着资产阶级民主共和国这种适合资本主义早期发展和成熟的理想的政权形式 / 存在着资产阶级民主共和国，这是适合资本主义早期发展和成熟的理想的政权形式。所有这些因素都具有重大的意义。

bourgeoisie. The proletariat became the main force of the movement. Workers in

Shanghai, Tangshan, Changxindian and Jiujiang went successively on strike and

demonstrated / held demonstrations. For the first time, the Chinese working class

emerged on the political arena / mounted the political stage as a conscious

independent political force, displaying / exhibiting // and displayed / exhibited its

在此危难之际，我今天对议会的发言非常简略，我想能得到谅解。我希望朋友和同僚，或受到这次内阁重组影响的前任同僚，对略去以往必不可少的礼仪，能给予体谅。

我已向参加新政府的各位大臣说过，在此再向各位议员说：我能奉献的，只有热血、辛劳、眼泪和汗水。我们面临着一场最严峻的考验 / 最严重的磨难。我们面临着月复一月年复一年的斗争与苦难。

若问我们的政策是什么？我的回答是：在陆上、在海上、在空中作战。全力以赴，以上帝所能赐予我们的全部力量作战，同黑暗惨酷的人类犯罪史上空前凶残的暴政决一死战。这就是我们的政策。

若问我们的目标是什么？我可用两个字来回答。那就是胜利——不惜一切代价去夺取胜利，不顾一切恐怖去夺取胜利，不管道路多么漫长艰险去夺取胜利；因为没有胜利就不能生存。我们必须认识到这一点。没有胜利，大英帝国就不复存在；没有胜利，大英帝国所代表的一切就不复存在；没有胜利，世世代代推动人类朝着目标前进的愿望、动力就不复存在。

我斗志昂扬、满怀希望地承担自己的任务。我确信，人们不会听任我们的事业遭到失败。此时此际，我认为我有权要求所有的人助我一臂之力，有权呼吁：“行动起来，让我们万众一心，共赴国难。”

The Rabbits and the Cat (Excerpt)

Lu Xun

In summer, Third Mistress (who lived) in our back courtyard,

bought a pair of

white rabbits for her children to play with / to amuse her children.

Apparently these rabbits had not left // These rabbits did not seem / appear to

have left their mother for long. Although they were a different species, their

carefree innocence was evident / could be easily seen // one could easily see their

carefree innocence. But they also erected / lifted / raised their long, small / small,

long crimson / scarlet ears, wrinkled their noses and showed a rather surprised and

suspicious look / a look of surprised suspicion in their eyes. Probably, after all, they

felt this place and the people here strange / unfamiliar with this place and the people

here, and (so) were less at ease here than / not so at ease here as in their old home.

Creatures like these / Such creatures, if you went to a temple fair yourself to buy

them, cost no more than two strings of cash / coppers apiece / each // cost only two

strings of cash / coppers apiece / each at most; but Third Mistress had spent a (silver)

dollar, because she (had) sent a servant to a shop to buy them.

The children, naturally, were overjoyed / It was natural that the children were

overjoyed and crowded round boisterously / noisily for a look / to have a look. The

grown-ups crowded round too. A puppy called S also came running over. Dashing

up to sniff at them, he sneezed, / He dashed up to sniff at them, sneezed and (then)

backed away a couple of paces. Third Mistress cried / shouted / snapped, “Listen, S!

You’re not (allowed) to bite them!” then she slapped him / gave him a slap on the

head, so (that) S ran off / away, and after that he never bit them.

These rabbits were shut up / kept most of the time in the small courtyard

behind the back window. We were told / heard this was because // , which, we were

told / heard, was because they were too fond of tearing the wallpaper and nibbling

at / gnawing at the legs of furniture. In this little courtyard grew a wild mulberry

tree. When the mulberries fell, they liked eating them most (of all), // They liked

eating the fallen mulberries most (of all), and (they) wouldn’t eat / would pass over

/ would refuse to eat even the spinach given them. When crows and magpies wanted

to fly down, they would, with humped / hunched backs // hunching / humping their

backs // their backs hunched / humped, stamp their hind feet hard on the ground and—whoosh!—bound / bounce straight up like flying snowballs // and bound / bounce

straight up with a whoosh like flying snowballs. The frightened birds promptly took

flight / flew away promptly, // The birds were so frightened that they took prompt

flight / flew away promptly, and after several repetitions of this / and after this had

been repeated several times they no longer dared come near. Third Mistress said

crows and magpies didn’t matter, at most they would snatch / they would do no

more than snatch a little food; the hateful thing / the cursed thing / the real menace

was a big black cat, which often watched malevolently / viciously from the top of

the wall—that must be guarded against. Fortunately, / It was fortunate that S and

that cat were enemies, so perhaps there would be no trouble / nothing after all.

论羞怯

塞缪尔·约翰逊

产生羞怯的最常见的原因莫过于对我们自己的重要性估计 / 评价过高。一个人，假如想象着聚会者一心想着他的才德，满怀期望而喘息难平，心无旁骛而鸦雀无声，就很容易因担心让众人失望而惊恐不安，于是搜索枯肠想出恰

当言行，证明自己是实至名归，并非浪得虚名。他以为，自己的一言一行人们都将永远铭记；只言片语都（是）毁誉攸关；自己随口说出的一切都应该经得起时间的检验。这样惴惴不安，谁还能怀疑他已经方寸大乱 / 心慌意乱，而且由于勉强进行种种力不从心的尝试，很快就陷入萎靡沮丧之中呢?

良药往往苦口。那些为名声所累的人，即使听别人说他们的担忧是多余的，大概也不会感到心安。但事实是，谁也不会受到世人多少关注。一个人如果想想自己对别人的情况注意得多么少，就知道自己吸引别人的注意力也是多么少。看见面前川流不息经过的人群，其中看来值得注意或激起同情的人，也许一个也没有，这时我们就应当记住，自己也同样会消失在这同一人群中；应当记住，碰巧投向我们的目光片刻之间就会转向身后的人；应当记住，我们能合情合理地希望或担心的，充其量是闲聊一通打发 / 消磨一段空闲时光，然后被人遗忘。

Endurance (2)

The camel conquers the desert while the pigeon conquers the air / and the

pigeon (conquers) the air.

The camel cannot run as fast as the horse, nor can the pigeon fly with as much

agility / as agilely as the petrel. But both camel and pigeon are hardy / have

endurance. Their endurance is so great / such that both the raging sandstorm and the

violent typhoon lose countenance in their presence / as to put to shame both the

raging sandstorm and the violent typhoon.

Their great endurance enables them to get to any place / any destination they

want to. Seldom is any camel found to have dropped dead in the midst of a desert,

nor is any pigeon discovered to have fallen halfway across the sea.

Both camel and pigeon are gentleness itself / very gentle, // Neither camel nor

pigeon is fierce, (with) their eyes always twinkling timidly / with timidity. But their

eyes are never blinded by any sandstorm, and can always endure / bear / stand the

lashing of a furious tempest.

The camel’s hump is (like) an arch bridge linking up the cultures of (the) East

and (the) West, and the jingling of its bell is the most reliable courier / messenger

and the most exciting message.

The pigeon is a most trustworthy / loyal messenger, who can deliver secret

intelligence to a military commander with (unerring) accuracy / accurately.

The pigeon whistle is ringing again overhead / over my head. To me, however,

the sound does not seem faint, but instead / rather the whole firmament seems to be

paling / fading into insignificance // to be becoming insignificant in comparison

with it…

Stone Beasts in the River

Ji Yun

On / Close to the bank of a river south of Cangzhou was located a temple,

whose gate collapsed and tumbled / fell into the river, (with) the two stone beasts

sunken together. A dozen years after / afterwards // After a dozen years, the monks

collected a sum of money with which to restore / rebuild the gate. They searched in

the water for the two stone beasts, but surprisingly (they) could not find them; then

it struck them that the beasts must have been washed downstream / down the river.

So they rowed several small boats dragging iron rakes down the riverbed for about

a dozen li, without finding / but did not find a trace of them. A pedant teaching in

the temple learned about it / heard about it and said with a sneer, “You’re unable to

inquire into / are ignorant of the ways of things. These aren’t wood chips; how can

they have been carried away by floods? The fact is that stone is solid and heavy in

nature while sand is loose and mobile. Buried in the sand they sink deeper and

deeper. Isn’t it insane / mad / absurd (of you) to search for them downstream?”

Everybody was convinced that it was a conclusive argument.

A veteran dyke-protection soldier heard this talk and also said with a sneer,

“All stones fallen into a river must be looked for upstream. Since stone is solid and

heavy while sand is loose and mobile, water can’t wash a stone away. But the force

of the rebounding water is certain to / will certainly scoop a pit by eroding the sand

beneath it where it’s exposed to / it faces the water. The pit becomes deeper and

deeper with the rebounding of the water / as the water rebounds // The more the

water rebounds, the deeper the pit becomes, and when it’s as deep as half the height

of the stone / half as deep as the stone is high, the latter overturns into the former.

The erosion of the sand repeats itself in this way / The water erodes the sand in this

way again and gives / , which gives /, giving the stone another turn //, so that the

stone overturns once more. As it turns over and over again, the stone travels / moves

against the current up the river. To be sure, it’s insane / mad / absurd to search for it

downstream, but isn’t it more so to look for it in the riverbed right where it fell?”

Acting upon his reasoning / Doing as he said, sure enough, the monks did find the

stone beasts several li upstream. But there are many (natural) phenomena in the

world of which one sees only one aspect and fails to see others. Will it do to / Can

one make judgments from mere speculations?

第22课

1. Stones with a loud and clear sound are found / exist everywhere.

2. But / Yet this theory in particular I doubt all the more.

3. Huge rocks rose hundreds of feet by the riverside, like savage beasts and

weird ghosts in terrible gestures of striking at people.

4. What Li Daoyuan saw and heard was quite similar to my experiences indeed,

only he did not give a detailed account of it.

5. The ancients did not deceive me!

The Small Rocky Pool

Liu Zongyuan

We walked some hundred and twenty paces westward from the knoll / hill to a

bamboo grove // A walk of some one hundred and twenty paces westward from the

knoll / hill brought us to a bamboo grove, through which we heard, to our joy, the

sound of water tinkling like (that of) jade pendants knocking against each other. We

opened a path by cutting the bamboos / We cut a path through the bamboos,

revealing a small pool below, which was unusually limpid / clear. A whole / An

unbroken rock made up / constituted its bottom, which, closer to the bank, rolled up

above the water to form flat and rugged islets, cliffs and caves. Green trees were

wrapped and entwined in verdant / emerald green vines, which, varied in length,

interlocked and swung in the wind.

There were some one hundred fish / one hundred or so fish in the pool, all of

which looked / all looking as if (they were) swimming unsupported in a void. As the

sunlight penetrated (into / through) the water, the fish cast their motionless shadows

on the rocky bottom. Suddenly they disappeared into the distance, and then

scudded / darted to and fro, as if / as though playing with us visitors.

Looking southwest from the pool, we could see the stream meander / In a

southwesterly direction from the pool, the stream meandered in a serpentine /

snakelike manner, (with) some parts (of it) visible and others hidden from view. Its

banks were ragged in shape / ragged-shaped like a dog’s teeth, denying us any

inkling as to its source / so that we didn’t know its source / didn’t have an inkling as

to its source.

We sat by the pool, which, (as it was) enclosed / surrounded by trees and

bamboos, was still and deserted, melancholy and bone-chilling, and bleak and

profoundly secluded. As the place was too desolate / The place being too desolate

for us to stay long, we went away / left after I made a note of it. My fellow

travellers were Wu Wuling, Gong Gu and my cousin Liu Zongxuan. Attendants

accompanying us were two youngsters of a Cui family, one called Shuyi and the

other Fengyi.
