In the electroencephalographic sense we share it with all the primates and almost all the other mammals and birds: it may extend back as far as the reptiles. 睡眠自古就有。从脑电图上看，我们人类和所有灵长目动物以及几乎所有的哺乳动物和鸟类都一样需要睡眠;甚至爬行类动物也有睡眠。 There is some evidence that the two types of sleep, dreaming and dreamless, depend on the life-style of the animal, and that predators are statistically much more likely to dream than prey, which are in turn much more likely to experience dreamless sleep. In dream sleep, the animal is powerfully immobilized and remarkably unresponsive to external stimuli. Dreamless sleep is much shallower, and we have all witnessed cats or dogs cocking their ears to a sound when apparently fast asleep. 有证据显示，有梦睡眠和无梦睡眠这两种类型的睡眠取决于该动物的生活方式。从统计上看，食肉动物比被捕食动物有更多的有梦睡眠，而被捕食动物更多地无梦睡眠。动物在有梦睡眠时，被有效地解除动作能力，并且对外界刺激缺乏反应。无梦睡眠则要浅得多。我们都看到过猫和狗在显然的酣睡中，有一点响动耳朵就会竖起来。 The fact that deep dream sleep is rare among prey today seems clearly to be a product of natural selection, and it makes sense that today, when sleep is highly evolved, the stupid animals are less frequently immobilized by deep sleep than the smart ones. But why should they sleep deeply at all? Why should a state of such deep immobilization ever have evolved? Perhaps one useful hint about the original function of sleep is to be found in the fact that dolphins and whales and aquatic mammals in general seem to sleep very little. There is, by and large, no place to hide in the ocean. 被捕食动物很少有深度的有梦睡眠，这看来显然是自然选择的结果。而且这一点是有道理的：当睡眠高度进化以后，愚笨的动物比聪明的动物更少在深度睡眠状态下丧失动作能力。但是动物为什么要进入深度睡眠呢?为什么这样的无动作状态也会进化出来呢?海豚、鲸鱼以及水生哺乳动物睡眠都极少，这一事实可以给睡眠的根本功能提供有用的线索。海洋中是没有藏身之处的。 Could it be that, rather than increasing an animal's vulnerability, the function of sleep is to decrease it? Wilse Webb of the University of Florida and Ray Meddis of London University have suggested this to be the case. It is conceivable that animals who are too stupid to be quiet on their own initiative are, during periods of high risk, immobilized by the implacable arm of sleep. The point seems particularly clear for the young of predatory animals. This is an interesting notion and probably at least partly true. 会不会是这样，睡眠不但不增加动物受伤害的可能性，反而是减少了这种可能性呢?佛罗里达大学的Wilse Webb和伦敦大学的Ray Meddis认为情况就是如此。可以想像得出，在危险的时刻，那些由于太愚笨而不能自动保持安静的动物，会不由自主地变得动弹不得。这一点在食肉动物的幼兽身上表现得特别明显。这是一个很有意思的看法，它至少是部分正确的。 每日欣赏一篇英语美文篇二 世界上9种独特的交通工具Venice – Traghetto 威尼斯摆渡船 Along the 3.5km stretch of Venice's Grand Canal there are just three bridges, so how do you get across? By Traghetto (meaning 'ferry' in Italian), of course. The unglamorous sibling of the gondola; these no-frills boats get passengers from one side of the canal to the other for a meagre fee. You can pick up a Traghetto from any of the seven piers along the canal - just look for the yellow signs pointing you towards the landings. Each boat is rowed by two oarsmen - one at the bow and one behind the passengers, as in a gondola - if you want to ride like a Venetian, stand for the short journey. 总长3.5公里的威尼斯大运河上，一共只有三座桥梁，那你要怎么过河呢?当然是坐Traghetto(意大利语的“渡船”之意)啦。这种摆渡船和著名的贡多拉很像，但是没贡多拉那么精致迷人。这些无装饰的船只将乘客从运河的一边送到另一边，只收取很少的费用。你可以在运河沿岸七个码头中的任意一个搭乘Traghetto——会有一些黄色指示牌指示你在哪里登船，只要找到它们即可。每艘船有两个桨手，像贡多拉一样，一个在船头，一个在所有乘客身后。如果你想像威尼斯人一样出行，那就忍受一下这趟短途旅程吧。 Pakistan - Tangah 巴基斯坦马车 Save yourself a few bucks in Pakistan and ride on a Tangah, rather than the more commonly used rickshaws and taxis. A Tangah is a carriage, sitting atop two large wooden wheels (not exactly designed for comfort, so expect a sore bottom on a long journey! ), pulled by one or two horses. They have a low-glamour, but high fun factor and have become more widely used in Pakistan for enjoyment, rather than as a functional way of getting around. Just beware that they're not the speediest way to travel! 想在巴基斯坦省点钱，那就坐坐Tangah吧，而不要选择更常用的人力三轮车或出租车。Tangah是架在两个大木轮上(木轮可不是为了舒适而设计的，所以做好心理准备，这趟漫长旅程中你的屁股可要受罪了!)、由一两匹马拉的马车。Tangah的样子不怎么迷人，但却非常有趣。在巴基斯坦，它越来越多地作为一种娱乐方式被广泛使用，而不是一个功能性的交通工具。只是要注意，它们可不是速度最快的旅行方式哟! Cambodia - Bamboo train 柬埔寨竹火车 Those with a strong constitution may want to ride a Cambodian bamboo train - known locally as a nori. Passengers sit on a makeshift bamboo 'train' (basically just a bamboo platform) powered by an electric generator engine, travelling at up to 40km/h. The unmaintained railway tracks make for a bumpy ride and the closest you'll get to luxury is sitting on a grass mat. But the fares are low and this is a once in a lifetime experience, as all the locals use them for getting around.. 体格强壮的人也许想要试试坐柬埔寨竹火车——也被当地人称作nori。乘客坐在一个临时搭建的用发电机引擎供电的竹“火车”上(基本上是一个竹子平台)，以每小时40公里的速度行驶。无人维护的铁路轨道让旅途颠簸不平，而铺上一张草垫子再坐在上面已经是最奢侈的方式了。但是竹火车的票价很低，而且这是一次千载难逢的经历，所有的当地人都使用它们出行。 Philippines - Jeepney 菲律宾吉普尼 The exhaust-belching people-carriers powered by ancient diesel car engines that careen around Filipino city streets are actually pieced-together former World War II army Jeeps. Adorned with painted flags, eagles, and starbursts, jeepneys are traditionally given names such as "Taurus" and "Mr. Lover Boy." They travel at breakneck speed overloaded with people and produce, often failing to come to a complete stop for passengers to leap on and off. These dirty, decrepit workhorses and their doctored diesel are responsible for a particularly toxic form of air pollution as well as health problems. 这些采用古老的柴油发动机、在菲律宾城市街道上猛冲、一副喷气都喷不动样子的车，实际上是第二次世界大战军用吉普车的组装车。装饰着彩旗、鹰和四射亮光，吉普尼传统上被赋予了"Taurus"和"Mr. Lover Boy"之类的名字。它们过度运载人和货，并以极速运行，常常不能完全停下让乘客们上下车。这些肮脏破旧的机器和它们所装配的柴油机对一种特殊有毒气体的产生负有主要责任，会造成空气污染和健康问题。 Thailand – Tuk Tuk 泰国嘟嘟车 Brightly colored, three-wheeled tuk tuks beetle about Bangkok, cramming passengers into their covered back seats as they battle insane traffic and hurtle about in the heat, humidity, and pollution. The impatient drivers of these rusting, souped-up golf carts hurtle from one lane of traffic to another, barely registering the presence of lumbering buses, thundering trucks, and the mosquito fleets of other tuk tuk drivers. As you idle, you'll have the chance to really enjoy how the noisy vehicles themselves contribute substantially to pollution. Tourists often find themselves delivered to an extra, unexpected stop en route as tuk tuk drivers attempt to get a cut of commission at stores where they happen to take a detour. 颜色鲜艳的三轮嘟嘟车在曼谷快速穿梭，将乘客都塞入其后排座位，和疯狂的交通作斗争，在高温、潮湿和污染中横冲直撞。没耐心的司机驾驶着这些生了锈的、加大了马力的 高尔夫球 车从一条小巷猛冲到另一条小巷，几乎无视笨重的巴士、雷鸣般的卡车、以及如蚊子舰队般众多的其他嘟嘟车的存在。当你无所事事，你将有机会真正体会到这些嘈杂的车辆本身是如何对污染作出重大“贡献”的。途中，游客常常会发现自己在一个莫名其妙的地方停了下来，那是因为嘟嘟车司机带他们走的弯路上碰巧有可以赚外快佣金的商店。 India - Elephant Howdah 印度象轿 "Howdah" translates as "throne," a throwback to the days when the ornate platforms transported India's royalty from one place to the next. These days, it tends to be an array of tourists rather than the traditional aristocratic loads with which these big beasts of burden are encumbered. Howdahs can range from a simple seat and canopy to an opulent, gilt and jewel-encrusted carriage, complete with windows. Howdah被翻译为“宝座”，把我们带回过去印度王族乘坐这种华丽“工具”从一个地方去到另一个地方的日子。现在，这些庞然大物负载的往往是一群普通游客，而不是什么传统贵族。 印度象轿可以是一个简单的座椅和华盖，也可以是一个镀金并镶有宝石、还带有窗子的豪华车厢。 Alaska – Sled Dog 阿拉斯加雪橇犬 In Alaska or the Yukon, dog-pulled sleds have been replaced by snowmobiles in some communities. But hard-core husky enthusiasts still opt for canine power. Used in areas such as Denali National Park where motorized alternatives are illegal, deliveries, vet calls, and even Census visits in Alaska are still sometimes done by sled. 在阿拉斯加和育空(加拿大一地区)，一些社区已经用雪地车取代了狗拉雪橇。但是顽固不化的爱斯基摩犬 爱好 者仍然选择用狗作为动力。在德纳里国家公园等地区，使用雪橇犬作为电动的替代品是非法的;但是在阿拉斯加，发送货物、呼叫兽医、甚至是人口普查访问，有时仍然用狗拉雪橇。 Peru – Barco de Totora 秘鲁托托拉船 Totora is a reed which is grown in Peru, most notably on Lake Titicaca. The Uros are a group of people who live on the lake on floating islands fashioned from the reed. They also make Barco de Totora from bundles of the dried reeds, and these boats have become an icon of Peru. If you're visiting Lake Titicaca, the Barco de Totora is a wonderful, unique method of getting across the vast and beautiful stretch of water. 托托拉是一根生长在秘鲁的芦苇，是喀喀湖上最瞩目的风景线。乌鲁斯人是生活在喀喀湖中由芦苇形成的浮岛上的一群人。他们还可以用一捆捆的干芦苇制作托托拉船，这些船已成为秘鲁的象征。如果您正在喀喀湖游览，乘坐托托拉船是越过这片广袤而美丽的湖水的独特好方式。 London - DUKW 伦敦水陆两用军车 DUKW, widely pronounced 'duck', are amphibious trucks that were designed by the American military during World War II to transport equipment and troops over both land and water. Nowadays, you can take a trip in a DUKW in central London, on the aptly named Duck Tours. On a tour you'll drive past famous London landmarks like Big Ben, the London Eye and Trafalgar Square before dramatically launching into the River Thames to get a view from the water. They're the only way to experience the sights of central London by land and river - without leaving the comfort of your seat! DUKW，通常发成'duck'的音，是第二次世界大战期间由美军设计的水陆两栖车，可以在陆地也可以在水上运输装备或搭载部队士兵。现在，你可以在伦敦市中心坐一回水陆两用军车，进行所谓的Duck Tours。途中你会经过伦敦著名的标志性建筑，如大本钟、伦敦眼和特拉法格广场，然后引人注目地开进泰晤士河，在河上观赏风景。这是在伦敦市中心水陆两地享受风景的唯一方式，而且都不用离开你舒适的座位哟! 每日欣赏一篇英语美文篇三 人的左脑可以过滤噪音 An undated image of the human brain taken through scanning technology. Researchers from Japan, Canada and Germany have found that it is our left brain that picks out the desired sounds from a cacophony of loud, competing sounds.[Agencies] Ever wondered how we are able to conduct a conversation at a noisy party? Researchers from Japan, Canada and Germany have found that it is our left brain that picks out the desired sounds from a cacophony of loud, competing sounds. "In daily life, we are always exposed to several noises at the same time and we have to pick up important signals, for example, speech sounds, from the background noises," wrote researcher Ryusuke Amiga from Japan's National Institute for Physiological Sciences. "We found that the left hemisphere is generally dominant for auditory processing in noisy environments," he wrote in an email response to questions from Reuters. It is well known that speech signals are processed in the left brain. But this study, led by Hidehiko Okamoto and Christo Pantev at the University of Muenster in Germany, furthers our understanding of how the human brain is able to zero in on the specific sounds it wants and process them. In the latest issue of the online journal BMC Biology, the scientists said they used neuroimaging and observed neural mechanisms in volunteers who were exposed to different combinations of tests and background sounds. "Test sounds were played either to the left or to the right ear, while the competing noise was presented either to the same or to the opposite ear," they wrote. "By monitoring the brain's response to these different sound combinations, the team observed that the left hemisphere was the site of most neural activity associated with processing sounds in a noisy environment."

曾有人开玩笑说全中国人最擅长的一句英文是：My English is poor. 但这样的表达往往会带来误解，因为在外国人的眼中用 poor 来形容自己的水平，是一种极度自卑的体现，而如果你想表达你的英语并不是太好，还在努力阶段完全不用如此的“不自信” 地道表达： I am not 100% fluent, but I am getting better. 以后和外国人交流，可以实事求事地说：我的英语还不算十分流利，但至少我在努力。 当然，当对方口若悬河时。谦逊地承认自己的英语水平还比较菜，表达出希望对方语速放慢或者对自己多点耐心的想法是非常重要的，以下是几个如何向老外“认怂”的句子： 1. This is my first time to chat with people in English. I don't speak much English. 这是我第一次跟人讲英语，我平时不太说英文。 2. My English is not very well, can you speak Chinese? 我英语不是很好，您能说中文吗? 3. What？I can't understand what you are saying, my English is not that good. 什么？我听不懂你在说什么，我英语不是很好。 除了“My English is poor”，还有一些大家常说，但其实是错误的用法，今天我就带大家盘点一下： How to say in English? ✖ How do you say this in English? ✔ How to say 是在中国，最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一。这绝不是地道的英语说法，同样的句子有： How do you spell that please？ 请问这个词如何拼写 How do you pronounce this word？ 请问这个单词怎么读 What's your job? ✖ Are you working at the moment? ✔ What's your job？ 这种说法难道也有毛病吗？是的！因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业，如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子。所以你要问： Are you working at the moment？ 目前您是在上班吗？接下来才问： Where are you working these days？ 目前您在哪儿工作呢或者： What line of work are you in？ 您从事哪个行业呢 The price is very suitable for me. ✖ The price is right. ✔ Suitable (合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以 否定的形式 出现在告示或通知上。 例如： The following programme is not suitable for children. 下列节目儿童不宜。 4. 明天我有事情要做。 I have something to do tomorrow. ✖ Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. ✔ 用 I have something to do 来表示很忙 这也完全是中国式的说法，因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做，躺在那里睡大觉也是事情，所以说“我很忙，脱不开身”可以说： I'm tied up. 或者： I'm afraid I can't make it at that time. I‘d love to, but I can't. I have to stay at home. 5. 我没有英文名。 I haven't English name. ✖ I don't have an English name. ✔ have 在这里是实义动词，而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以，这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词同样的句式： I don't have any money. 我没有钱 I don't have any brothers or sisters. 我没有兄弟姐妹 I don't have a car. 我没有车 6. 我想我不行。 I think I can't. ✖ I don't think I can. ✔ 这一组在语法上称为否定前置，这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候，英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。 7. 我的舞也跳得不好。 I don't dance well too. ✖ I am not a very good dancer either. ✔ 当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候英语里面通常用 not good at something 甚至英语的思维直接踊跃到：我不是一个好的舞者。 8. 现在几点钟了? What time is it now? ✖ What time is it, please? ✔ What time is it now 这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子，讲英语的时候没有必要说 now。因为不可能问 what time was it yesterday 或者 what time is it tommorow。 还有一种说法是： how are we doing for time 在有时间限制的时候特别合适 9. 我没有经验 I have no experience. ✖ I am afraid I don’t know much about that. ✔ I have no experience 这句话听起来古里古怪 因为只需要说： I am not really an expert in this area. 10.“这个用英语怎么说？ ” How to say it in English? ✖ How do you say it in English? ✔ How to do sth 存在成分残缺，是错误的。只有作为文章的标题时才能用 How to do sth.。 11. 你周五愿意参加我们的晚会吗？ Would you like to join our party on Friday? ✖ Would you like to come to our party on Friday night? ✔ join 往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会，如：join the Communist Party. 事实上，常常与 party 搭配的动词的 come 或者 go。如 go a wild party，或者 come to a Christmas Party。学会了吗？ 学会了就点个赞，收个藏，转个发，关个注吧！

It is not sufficient merely to say "I want plenty of money." Be definite as to the amount. (There is a psychological reason for definiteness which will be described in a subsequent chapter.) Second: determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. (There is no such reality as "something for nothing.") Third: establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire. Forth: create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are read or not, to put this plan into action. Fifth: write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire, name the time limit for its acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it. Sixth: read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once just before retiring at night, and once after arising in the morning. As you read--see and feel and believe yourself already in possession of the money. It is important that you follow the instructions described in these six steps. It is especially important that you observe, and follow the instructions in the sixth paragraph. You may complain that it is impossible for you to "see yourself in possession of money" before you actually have it. Here is where a burning desire will come to you aid. If you truly desire money so keenly that your desire is an obsession, you will have no difficulty in convincing yourself that you will acquire it. The object is to want money, and to become so determined to have it that you convince yourself you will have it. 参考译文： 化渴望为财富的六大步骤 化渴望为财富的 方法 ，包含了如下的六大实际步骤： 第一：牢记你所渴望金钱的“确切”数目。光是说：“我要很多钱。”这样子是不够的。对其额度要非常肯定。(确定性之必要，有其心理学上的缘由，随后的章节会加以说明。) 第二：决定一下，你要“付出”什么以求报偿。(天底下是没有“不劳而获”这种事的。 第三：设定你想“拥有”所渴望金钱的确切日期。 第四：草拟实现渴望的确切计划，并且“立即”行动，不论你准备妥当与否，都要将计划付诸实施。 第五：简单明了地写下你想获得的金钱数目，及获得这笔 钱的时限。说明你打算凭什么去取得这笔钱，并详加描述你累 聚这笔钱的计划。 第六：一天朗诵两遍你写好的告白，早晨起床时念一遍，晚上睡觉前念一遍。念的时候，要有如亲见目睹一般，实际体会真正拥有这笔钱时的感觉。 遵行这六大步骤的指示是非常重要的。你有必要切实遵照这六个段落的指示，并奉行不渝。你可能会嘀咕，你又没有真正拥有这笔钱，要“目睹自己实际拥有这笔钱，” 似乎不太可能。这就该是沸腾的渴望派上用场的时刻了。如果你真的热切 渴望要有钱，你的渴望会变成魂牵梦萦的迫切企求，要让自己 有如置身其境也就易如反掌了。你的目标就是想要有钱，并且要坚定不移，坚定到你相信自己会拥有这笔钱的地步。 每天阅读一篇英语美文篇二 Scent of a Woman (S = Lt. Colonel Frank Slade; T = Mr Trask, the headmaster of Baird School) S: This is such a crock of shit. T: Please watch your language, Mr. Slade, you are in the Baird school, not a barracks. Mr. Simms, I will give you one final opportunity to speak up. S: Mr. Simms doesn’t want it. He doesn't need to be labeled, “still worthy of being a Baird man.” What the hell is that? What is your motto here? “Boys, inform on your classmates, save your hide, anything short of that we’re going to burn you at the stake’? Well, gentlemen, when the shit hits the fan, some guys run and some guys stay. Here’s Charlie, facing the fire, and there’s George, hiding in big daddy’s pocket. And what are you doing? You’re going to reward George and destroy Charlie. T: Are you finished Mr. Slade? S: No, I’m just getting warmed up. I don’t know who went to this place. William Howard Taft, William Jennings Bride, William Tell, whoever. Their spirit is dead, if they ever had one, it’s gone. You are building a rat ship here. A vessel for seagoing snitches. And if you think you’re preparing these minnows for manhood, you better think again. Because I say you are killing the very spirit this institution proclaims it instills. What a sham. What kind of a show are you putting on here today? I mean, the only class in this act is sitting next to me, and I’m here to tell you that this boy’s soul is intact. It’s non-negotiable, and you know how I know? Someone here, and I’m not going to say who, offered to buy. Only Charlie here wasn’t selling. T: Sir, you’re out of order. S: I’ll show you out of order! You don’t know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I’d show you but I’m too old, I’m too tired, I’m too fucking blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I’d take a flame thrower to this place! Out of order, who the hell you think you’re talking to? I’ve been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen. Boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off. But that is nothing like the sight of an amputated spirit. There is no prosthetic for that. You think you’re merely sending this splendid, foot soldier back home to Oregon with his tail between his legs? But I say you are executing his soul. And why? Because he’s not a Baird man. Baird men. You hurt this boy, you’re gonna be Baird bums, the lot of you. And Harry, Jimmy, Trent wherever you are out there, fuck you too. T: Stand down, Mr. Slade. S: I’m not finished. As I came in here, I heard those words, ‘cradle of leadership’. Well when the bough breaks, the cradle will fall, and it has fallen here, it has fallen! Makers of men, creators of leaders, be careful what kind of leaders you’re producing here. I don’t know if Charlie’s silence here today is right or wrong, I’m not a judge or jury, but I can tell you this, he won’t sell anybody out to buy his future. And that, my friends, is called integrity. That’s called courage. Now that’s the stuff leaders should be made of. 不，我不原谅你这场听证会简直胡闹!!(This is such a crock of shit ! ) -“请小心措词，你身在博德，不是军营。西门先生，我给你最后机会”(Please watch your language,Mr. Slade.You are in the Baird school,not a barracks. Mr. Simms, I will give you one final opportunity to speak up. ) -西门先生不需要!!他不需要被贴上“博德人”的标志，这算什么?你们的座右铭是什么?“孩子们，出卖朋友求自保，否则烧得你不见灰”?先生们……出纰漏时，有人跑有人留，查理面对烈火，那边的乔治躲进老爹的口袋里，结果你做什么呢?你奖励乔治，摧折查理。 (Mr.Simms doesn't want it.

The school has become a vital part of every community, drawing children from every walk of life. The children are eager to take advantage of its opportunities, emerging from their sheltered confines, dipping easily into the habits of the student. They are coming from far and near, struggling towards an education, whetting their appetites for knowledge, forming friendships for the future. Childish energy lets nothing stand in its way. In their tiny hands, they hold the future. The person upon whose capable shoulders rests the responsibility for their education is that unsung hero, the teacher. He must be fair, honest, understanding, and intelligent. He must handle every situation with the utmost dignity. With a complete understanding of his pupils, the experienced teacher equips himself for the classroom. The students eagerly return to the classroom. Youthful minds are encouraged to develop their latent talents. Ah, yes, the creative outlets of the arts and the crafts. Tests and examinations fill out the day, as bright little minds gather knowledge form their teacher. But the little hands make the time pass quickly. Contrary to popular belief, the teacher’s work is not through at the end of the school day. Oh, no. There’re many unfinished chores -- blackboards to be cleaned, erasers dusted, and of course the ever-present parent-teacher relationship.
