1.At first it was just plain surprising.scientists succeeded in cloning an adult mammal—an achievement long thought impossible—caught the imagination of everyone.The 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。
2.In the wake of this announcement, governments hurried to draft guidelines for the unknown, a future filled with incredible possibilities.此消息宣布之后,为了一个未知世界,一个充满各种不可思议的可能性的未来,各国政府立即起草指导方针。
3.Like the Theory of Relativity, the splitting of the atom, and the first space flight, Dolly’s appearance has generated a long list of difficult puzzles for scientists, politicians, and philosophers.就像相对论、原子裂变和第一次太空飞行一样,多莉的出现给科学家、政治家和哲学家们提出了一长串难以解答的难题。
4.The cloning method used requires combining an egg cell with the nucleus of a cell containing the DNA of the person to be cloned.(DNA is a very long, ribbon-like molecule that contains our genetic information.)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。)
5.Identical genes don’t produce identical people, as anyone who knowsa set of identical twins can tell you.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。biology, a clone would not be identical to the “master copy”.The clone’s cells, for example, would have energy-processing machinery that came from the egg, not from the
person who was cloned.即使从生物学的角度看,克隆人也不会和 “母本” 一模一样。比如,克隆人的细胞可能会有来自卵子而非被克隆人的能量加工机制。
7.Most experts agree that it would be psychologically harmful if a child sensed he had been simply as an organ donor.But some parents already produce second children with nonfatal transplants in mind, and many experts do not oppose this.Cloning would increase the chances for a tissue match from 25 percent to nearly 100 percent.多数专家都认为,如果一个孩子感到自己只是作为一个器官捐赠者来到这个世界,那他的心理可能受到伤害。但也有为了进行一些非致命器官的移植而生育第二个小孩的父母,对此许多专家也并不反对。克隆可以将组织适配率从 25% 提高到将近100%。
8.If cloned animals could be used as organ donors, we wouldn’t have to worry about cloning twins for transplants.如果把被克隆的动物用作器官捐赠体,那我们就不必担心为器官移植而克隆双胞胎了。
9.“Mom” is not right, because the woman who supplied the egg and gave birth to the infant would more appropriately be called Mother.“Dad” isn’t right, either.A traditional father supplies only half the DNA in a child.称呼 “妈妈” 不正确,因为提供卵子并生下婴孩的女子才更有资格被称为母亲。称呼 “爸爸” 也不对。传统意义上的父亲只提供孩子身上一半的 DNA。
10.“One should always respect one’s ancestors,” she says, “regardless of what they did to bring one into the world.”不论他们用什么方式将你带到这个世界,” 她说,“人总得尊敬自己的祖先。”
这样做还是留下了一些词汇上的难题。
12.The gravest concern isn’t really cloning itself, but genetic engineering—the deliberate altering of genes to create human beings according to certain requirements.Specifically, One expert believes the situation could be comparable to what occurred in the 16th century, when Europeans puzzled over how to classify the unfamiliar inhabitants of the Americas, and endlessly debated whether or not they were humans.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。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。
13.The list of questions could go on;people are just beginning to wonder about the future of the world after cloning.问题不胜枚举,而人们只是刚刚开始探询克隆技术出现后的世界的未来。
翻译题答案
1.It sounds like a good idea, but what if it’s a trick?
2.Cities and towns in this area suffered a lot from the earthquake with Jiujiang and Ruichang among the worst-hit.3.He complained that they should not have got involved in it in the first place.4.For Mary’s sake, I can lend you my car to get around your transport problem.5.In theory it’s feasible to clone a child to harvest organs, but in practice it would be psychologically harmful to the child.6.He published an article under the name of Braver which stresses the idea that the process of cloning animals would work for humans as well.1.你说你不会把时间浪费在约会上,但如果遇到吸引你的男子,你会怎么办呢?
2.为了帮助艾滋病患者,需要有新的措施,地方社团,非政府机构,政府和国际组织之间要建立密切的合作关系。
3.上周,该国际组织传出消息说,他们正密切关注该地区的情况。
4. 在导致数百人死亡的污染事件发生之后,政府开始起草环境保护指导方针。
5.正如这篇文章的作者所警告的,克隆人类可能是一件使人更加悲伤而非更加高兴的事。
6.在一些西方国家,有些父母准备克隆孩子,目的是进行非致命器官的移植。

第五篇:师说 重点句子翻译
《师说》重点句子翻译
(一)1、古之学者必有师。师者,所以传道受业解惑也。古代求学的人一定有老师。老师,是(可以)用来传授道理、教授学业、解答疑难问题的。
2、生乎吾前,其闻道也固先乎吾,吾从而师之;生乎吾后,其闻道也亦先乎吾,吾从而师之。吾师道也,夫庸知其年之先后生于吾乎?
生在我前面,他懂得道理本来(就)比我早,我(应该)跟从(他)把他当作老师;生在我后面,(如果)他懂得的道理也比我早,我(也应该)跟从(他)把他当作老师。我(是向他)学习道理啊,哪管他的生年比我早还是比我晚呢?
3、道之所存,师之所存也。
道理存在的地方,就是老师存在的地方。
4、是故圣益圣,愚益愚;圣人之所以为圣,愚人之所以为愚,其皆出于此乎!
因此圣人更加圣明,愚人更加愚昧;圣人成为圣人的原因,愚人成为愚人的原因,大概都出在这吧?
5、句读之不知,惑之不解,或师焉,或不焉,小学而大遗,吾未见其明也。
6、彼与彼年相若也,道相似也。位卑则足羞,官盛则近谀。那个人与某人年龄相近,修养和学业也差不多。以地位低(的人为师)就实在令人羞愧,称官位高的人为师就近于谄媚。
7、是故弟子不必不如师,师不必贤于弟子。闻道有先后,术业有专攻,如是而已。
因此学生不一定不如老师,老师也不一定比弟子强,听闻道理有先有后,学问和技艺上各自有专门的研究,像这样罢了。
