1、必修5Unit 1 Great scientistsReadingJOHH SHOW DEFEATS “KING CHOLERA約翰斯洛擊敗霍亂王John Snow was a famous doctor in London - so expert, indeed, that he attended Queen Victoria as her personal physician. But he became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadl

2、y disease of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousands of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted to face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never be controlled until its cause was found.約翰 斯洛是倫敦一位著名的醫生 他的

3、確醫術精湛，因而成為照料維多 利亞女王的私人醫生。但他一想到要幫助那些得了霍亂的普通百姓時，他就感 到很振奮。霍亂在當時是最致命的疾病，人們既不知道它的病源，也不了解它 的治療方法。每次霍亂暴發時，就有大批驚恐的老百姓死去。約翰斯洛想面對這個挑戰，解決這個問題。他知道，在找到病源之前，霍亂疫情是無法控制 的。He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera killed people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A

4、 cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person died.斯洛對霍亂致人死地的兩種推測都很感興趣。一種看法是霍亂病毒在空氣 中繁殖著，像一股危險的氣體到處漂浮，直到

5、找到病毒的受害者為止。第二種 看法是人們在吃飯的時候把這種病毒引入體內的。病從胃里發作而迅速殃及全 身，患者就會很快地死去。John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed evidence. So when another outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begin his enquiry. As the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods, he began to gather i

6、nformation. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why.斯洛推測第二種說法是正確的，但他需要證據。因此，在一年倫敦再次暴發霍亂的時候，約翰 斯洛著手準備對此進行調研。當霍亂在貧民區迅速蔓延 的時候，約翰 斯洛就開始收集資料。他發現特別在兩條街道上霍亂流行的很嚴 重，在10天之內就死去了 500多人。他決心要查明其原因。First he marked

7、on a map the exact places where all the dead people had lived. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the deaths were near the water pump in Broad Street (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 and 40). He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and

8、9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen this, so he made further investigations. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame.首先，他在一張地圖上標明了

9、所有死者住過的地方。這提供了一條說明霍 亂起因的很有價值的線索。許多死者是住在寬街的水泵附近(特別是這條街6、7、8、40號)。他發現有些住宅(如寬街上20號和21號以及劍橋街上的8號和9號)卻無人死亡。他以前沒預料到這種情況，所有他決定深入調查。他發現， 這些人都在劍橋街7號的酒館里打工，而酒館為他們免費提供啤酒喝，因此他們 沒有喝從寬街水泵抽上來的水。看來水是罪魁禍首。Next, John Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river

10、polluted by the dirty water from London. He immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle fromthe pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed down. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas.接下來，約翰 斯洛調查了這兩條街的水源情況。他發

11、現，水是從河里來的， 而河水被倫敦排出的臟水污染了。他馬上叫寬街上驚慌失措的老百姓拆掉水泵 的把手。這樣，水泵就用不成了。不久，疫情就開始得到緩解。他證明了，他 證明了霍亂是由病菌而不是由氣團傳播的。In another part of London, he found supporting evidence from two other deaths that were linked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away from Broad Street, liked the water from the pum

12、p so much that she had it delivered to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drinking the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with certainty that polluted water carried the virus.在倫敦的另一個地區，他從兩個與寬街暴發的霍亂有關聯的死亡病例中發 現了有力的證據。有一位婦女是從寬街搬過來的，她特別喜歡那里的

13、水，每天 都要派人從水泵打水運到家里來。她和她的女兒喝了這種水，都得了霍亂而死 去。有了這個特別的證據，約翰 斯洛就能夠肯定地宣布，這種被污染了的水攜 帶著病菌。為了防止這種情況的再度發生，約翰 斯洛建議所有水源都要經過檢測。自 來水公司也接到指令，不能再讓人們接觸被污染的水了。最終， 霍亂王”被擊 敗了。Using LanguageCOPERNICUS REVOLUTIONRRY THEORY哥白尼的革命性理論Nicolaus Copernicus was frightened and his mind was confused. Although he had tried to ignor

14、e them, all his mathematical calculations led to the same conclusion: that the earth was not the centre of the solar system. Only if you put the sun there did the movements of the other planets in the sky make sense. Yet he could not tell anyone about his theory as the powerful Christian Church woul

15、d have punished him for even suggesting such an idea. They believed God had made the world and for that reason the earth was special and must be the centre of the solar system.尼古拉 哥白尼被嚇得心煩意亂的。雖然他曾經試著不去理睬那些數字，然 而他所有的數學計算都得出了一個相同的結論：地球不是太陽系的中心。只有 當你把太陽放在中心位置上，天空中其他行星的運動才能說得清楚。他的這個 理論可不能告訴任何人，因為即使他只暗示有

16、這種想法，他都會受到強大的基 督教會勢力的懲罰。教會認為世界是上帝創造的，正因為如此，地球就具有特 殊的意義，它必定要成為太陽系的中心。The problem arose because astronomers had noticed that some planets in the sky seemed to stop, move backward and then go forward in a loop. Others appeared brighter at times and less bright at others. This was very strange if the ea

17、rth was the centre of the solar system and all planets went round it.這樣，問題就來了，因為天文學家以前發現過，天上有些行星停頓下來， 往后移動，然后再成環狀向前移動，而其他行星看上去有時亮些，有時又不怎 么亮。如果地球是太陽系的中心，而所有行星環繞著地球轉的話，那么這種現 象就很奇怪了。哥白尼對這些問題曾經苦苦思索過很久，試圖找出問題的答案。他曾經收 集過觀察星球的數據，并且利用他的全部數學知識來解釋這些數據。但是只有 他的新理論才能作出解釋。于是，他在 1510至年期間從事這項研究，逐步修改他的理論，直到他感到完善時為止。

18、In 1514 he showed it privately to his friends. The changes he made to the old theory were revolutionary. He placed a fixed sun at the centre of the solar system with the planets going round it and only the moon still going round the earth. He also suggested that the earth was spinning as it went rou

19、nd the sun and this explained changes in the movement of the planets and in the brightness of the stars. His friends were enthusiastic and encouraged him to publish his ideas, but Copernicus was cautious. He did not want to be attacked by the Christian Church, so he only published it as he lay dying

20、 in 1543.年，他把他的新理論私下里給他的朋友們看。他對舊理論的修改是具 有革命性的。他把太陽固定在太陽系的中心位置上，而行星則圍繞著太陽轉， 只有月球仍然繞著地球轉。他還提出地球在圍繞太陽轉的同時，它本身還自轉， 這樣就說明了行星運動的變化情況以及星球亮度問題。他的朋友都熱情地鼓勵 他把他的想法公之于世，而他卻小心謹慎，他不想遭到基督教會的攻擊，所以 他直到年臨終之前才公布了這一觀點。Certainly he was right to be careful. The Christian Church rejected his theory, saying it was against

21、God's idea and people who supported it would be attacked. Yet Copernicus' theory is now the basis on which all our ideas of the universe are built. His theory replaced the Christian idea of gravity, which said things fell to earth because God created the earth as the centre of the universe.

22、Copernicus showed this was obviously wrong. Now people can see that there is a direct link between his theory and the work of Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking.當然，他小心謹慎是對的。基督教會拒絕接受他的理論，說這種理論違背 了上帝的旨意，而支持這種理論的人都會受到打擊。然而哥白尼的理論卻是我 們宇宙觀賴以建立的基礎。他的理論還改變了基督教對地心引力的看法，他們 認為物體往地球上掉落是因為上帝創造了地球，

23、而地球正是宇宙的中心。哥白 尼表明這是明顯錯誤的。如今人們可以看到，他的這些想法與艾薩克牛頓、阿爾伯特愛因斯坦以及斯蒂芬 霍金等人的研究都有著直接的聯系。Unit 2 The United KingdomReadingPUZZLES IN GEOGRAPHY地理之謎People may wonder why different words are used to describe these four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. You can clarify this question if you st

24、udy British history.人們也許覺得奇怪，為什么用來描述英格蘭、威爾士、蘇格蘭和北愛爾蘭 這四個國家的詞語不太一樣。但如果你學過英國歷史，就能弄清楚這個問題。首先是英格蘭。威爾士于13世紀同英格蘭聯合了起來。如今只要有人提起 英格蘭，你就會發現威爾士總是包括在內的。接著，英格蘭、威爾士同蘇格蘭 于17世紀聯合了起來，名字就改成了大不列顛”。令人慶幸的是，當蘇格蘭的詹姆斯國王成為英格蘭和威爾士的國王時，這三個國家和平地實現了聯合。最 后，英國政府打算于20世紀初把愛爾蘭也同另外三個國家和平聯合起來以形成 聯合王國。然而，愛爾蘭的南部卻不愿組建聯合王國，它分離出去，并建立了 自己的

25、政府。因此只有北愛爾蘭同英格蘭、威爾士、蘇格蘭聯合起來，而組成 了聯合王國，這一點從新的聯合王國國旗上就可以看得出來。值得贊揚的是，這四個國家的確在一些方面共同合作，例如在貨幣和國際 關系方面；但是有些制度仍然區別很大。例如，北愛爾蘭、英格蘭和蘇格蘭在 教育體制和立法體制上都存在著差異。在參加像世界杯之類的比賽時，它們有 著各自的足球隊。England is the largest of the four countries, and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France

26、is called the South of England, the middle zone is called the Midlands and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North. You find most of the population settled in the south, but most of the industrial cities in the Midlands and the North of England. Although, nationwide, these cities are not a

27、s large as those in China, they have world-famous football teams and some of them even have two! It is a pity that the industrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract visitors. For historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the Romans. There you will

28、find out more about British history and culture.在這四個國家中，英格蘭是最大的。為了方便起見，它大致可以劃分為三 個地區。最靠近法國的那個地區叫做英格蘭南部，中部地區叫做英格蘭中部， 最靠近蘇格蘭的那個地區叫做英格蘭北部。你可以看到英國的大部分人口聚居 在南部，而多數大工業城市都位于中部和北部。盡管，英國任何一個城市都不 像中國的城市那樣大，但是他們都有著自己的享有威名的足球隊，有的城市甚 至還有兩個隊。很遺憾，這些建于 19世紀的工業城市對游客并沒有吸引力。要 找歷史性建筑你得去更古老的、比較小些的由古羅馬人建造的城鎮。在那兒你 才可能找到更多

29、的有關英國歷史和文化的東西。The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. It is the centre of national government and its administration. It has the oldest port built by the Romans in the first century AD, the oldest building begun by the Anglo

30、-Saxons in the 1060s and the oldest castle constructed by later Norman rulers in 1066. There has been four sets of invaders of England. The first invaders, the Romans, left their towns and roads. The second, the Anglo-Saxons, left their language and their government. The third, the Vikings, influenc

32、。接著是盎格魯 一一撒克遜人，留下了他們的語言和政體。第三是斯堪的納維亞人，他們對詞 匯和北部的地名造成了一定影響；第四是諾曼人，他們留下了城堡和食物名稱 的新詞語。If you look around the British countryside you will find evidence of all these invaders. You must keep your eyes open if you are going to make your trip to the United Kingdom enjoyable and worthwhile.如果你到英國鄉間去看看，你就會找到

33、所有這些入侵者的痕跡。如果想使 你的英國之旅不虛此行又有意義，你就必須留心觀察。Using LanguageSIGHTSEEING IN LONDON倫敦觀光記由于擔心時間不夠，張萍玉早就把她想要在倫敦參觀的地點列了一張單子。 她最先想參觀的地方是倫敦塔，它是很久以前由入侵的諾曼人在公元一年修建的。真是太棒了！這個堅實的用石頭砌的方形塔已經在那屹立一千年了。盡 管在塔的四周擴建了一些建筑，但它仍然是皇宮和監獄聯合體的一個組成部分。讓張萍玉很驚訝的是，她發現女王的珠寶由皇家特別衛士守護著，而這些衛士 在一些特殊的日子仍然穿著400年前伊麗莎白一世女王時代的制服。There followed St

Oh, she had so much to tell her friends!接著參觀的是圣保羅大教堂，它是公元 年倫敦大火以后建造的，剛建成的時候，它看起來真是金碧輝煌。威斯敏斯特大教堂也是很有意思的地方， 里面珍藏著一些已故詩人和作家的雕像，例如莎士比亞的雕像。正當萍玉走出 大教堂的時候，她聽到
