展开全部
76. Certainly people do not seem less interested in success and its
signs
now than formerly. Summer homes,
European travel, BMWs--the locations, place
names and name brands may change, but
such items do not seem less in demand
today than a decade or two years ago.
[参考译文]
当然，人们现在对成功及其各种标志的兴趣似乎并不亚于先前。消夏 别墅
、欧陆旅行、宝马车--地点、地名以及品牌或许会有变化，但这类事物在今天被人渴求的
程度也似乎不会亚于一二十年前。
77. Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, which now
more
than ever seem in ample supply: the
critic of American materialism with a
Southampton summer home; the publisher
of radical books who takes his meals in
three-star restaurants; the journalist
advocating participatory democracy in
all phases of life, whose own children
are enrolled in private schools.
[参考译文]
相反，我们被款待看到这样一些虚伪的壮观景象，他们似乎比以前的任何时
候都更供应充足：美国式物质主义的批判者却拥有位于南安普顿的避暑山庄：激进书籍的
出版商却在三餐厅享用一日三餐；倡导在人生各个阶段的参与民主制的记者，他的子
女却就读于私立学校。
78. No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professional and
amateurs
in science: exceptions can be found to
any rule. Nevertheless, the word
"amateur" does carry a
connotation that person concerned is not fully
integrated into the scientific
community and, in particular, may not share its
values.
[参考译文]
科学领域的专业人员和业余爱好者之间划不出泾渭分明的界线：因为任何规
则都有例外。然而，"业余"一词的确意味着相关人员不能充分融入职业科学界，尤其未能
分享科学圈子的价值。
79. The trend
was naturally most obvious in those areas of science based
especially on a mathematical or
laboratory training, and can be illustrated in
terms of the development of geology in

century
and a half reveals not simply an
increasing emphasis on the primacy of
research, but also a changing
definition of what constitutes an acceptable
research paper.

仅对科研的主导地位的强调不断攀升，而且一篇可接受的科研论文所包含的内容的定义也
有所变化。
81. The overall result has been to make entrance to professional
geological
journals harder for a mateurs, a
result that has been reinforced by the
widespread introduction of refereeing,
first by national journals in the 19th
century and then by several local
geological journals in the 20th century.
[参考译文]
这样一来总的结果便是业余爱好者想在专业地质学期刊…卜发表文章就更难
了，而被广泛使用的论文评审推荐制度又进一步强化了这一结果，该种制度先是出现在19
世纪的刊物上，后又在20世纪被几家地方级地质学刊物所使用。
82. A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional
geologists coming together nationally
within one or two specific societies,
whereas the amateurs have tended
either to remain in local societies or to
come together nationally in a
different way.
[参考译文]

国性的专科学术社团，而业余地质爱好者们倾向于要么仍留在地方社团，要么也以另一种
方式组成全国性机构。
83. Sad to say, this project has turned out to be mostly low--level
findings
about factual errors and spelling and
grammar mistakes, combined with lots of
head--scratching puzzlement about what
in the world those readers really want.

84. I believe that the most important
forces behind the massive M&M wave are
the same that underlie the
globalization process: falling transportation and
communication costs, lower trade and
investment barriers and enlarged markets
that require enlarged operations
capable of meeting customers' demands.
[参考译文]
我认为巨大的并购浪潮背后的最重要的推动力同时也就是促成全球化进程的
那方基石：即降低交通运输成本，逐渐减少贸易投资壁垒，以及大幅度拓展市场，这些都
要求更大规模的经营管理以满足消费者需求。
85. A lateral move that hurt my pride and blocked my professional
progress
promoted me to abandon my relatively
high profile career although, in the
manner of a disgraced government
minister, I covered my exit by claiming "I
wanted to spend more time with my
family."
[参考译文]
一次侧面的不光明磊落的攻击伤害了我的自尊，阻碍了我事业的发展，使我

86. I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized

success and social status.
[参考译文]

87. While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic
decline-after the mass redundancies
caused by downsizing in the late ' 80s-and
is still linked to the politics of
thrift, in Britain, at least among the
middle-class down shifters of my
acquaintance, we have different reasons for
seeking to simplify our lives.
[参考译文]
在美国，这一返朴趋势是以经济衰落的反应为开始的--那是在80年 代末期
裁员而引起大量的失业之后一一现在依然与提倡节俭的政纲相： 关；而在英国，最起码
在我所熟识的中产阶级返朴归隐者中，追求简约； 生活的原因就多种多样了。
88. For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling
through
the' 80s, down-shifting in the mid'
90s is not so much a search for the
mythical good lift-growing your own
organic vegetables, and risking turning
into one-as a personal recognition of
your limitations.
[参考译文]
对于我这一代曾在整个80年代为生活奔波的女人来说，90年代中期出 现的

89. If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be
in a

notorious bad taste in ties.
[参考译文]

and
bone surgery with submillimeter
accuracy--far greater precision than highly

they
will have to operate with less human
supervision and be able to make at least'
a few decisions for them- selves-goals
that pose a real challenge.
[参考译文]
但是如果机器人要达到节省人工的下一个阶段，它们将必须在更少的人力监督之下工作，而且还要能够自己作出至少几个决定--这些目标才会引发真正的挑战。
92. But the human mind can glimpse a rapidly changing scene and
immediately disregard the 98 percent that is
irrelevant, instantaneously focusing on the
monkey at the side of a winding forest
road or the single suspicious face in a
big crowd.
[参考译文]

[参考译文]
尽管它裁决并没有宪法权利来支持医生帮助下的自杀行为，法院实际上
