essence of Christianity.
Ferdinand foch, Frcnch marshal

法国元帅福煦F.

Howards Mel, USA writer

Since the dawn of human ingenuity, people have devised ever more cunning tools to cope with work that is dangerous, boring, burdensome, or just plain nasty.
从人类最初有了智慧至今,人们一直在设计日益巧妙的工具来处理那些危险的、枯燥的、繁重的或者只是一般肮脏的工作。
That compulsion has resulted in robotics — the science of conferring various human capabilities on machines.
这种不得已的行为导致了机器人科学的产生——一门将人类的能力赋予机器的科学。
And if scientists have yet to create the mechanical version of science fiction, they have begun to come close.
如果科学家们还没有在机械上实现科幻小说的幻想,那么他们也已经很接近这个目标了。

但是很难想像当今的几个石油公司的合并是否会重新造成约100年前美国标准石油公司对竞争造成的同样的威胁,那时由于人们对该公司的这种担心而导致了它最终的解散。
The mergers of telecom companies, such as World Com, hardly seem to bring higher prices for consumers or a reduction in the pace of technical progress.

In a draft preface to the recommendations, discussed at the 17 May meeting, Shapiro suggested that the panel had found a broad consensus that it would be "morally unacceptable to attempt to create a human child by adult nuclear cloning."
在5月17日会议上讨论的建议序言草案中,夏皮罗表示,专家组已取得广泛的共识,认为“试图利用成人细胞核去克隆婴儿将是违背道德伦理的”。
Shapiro explained during the meeting that the moral doubt stems mainly from fears about the risk to the health of the child.
夏皮罗解释说在与会期间,道德上的怀疑主要源于对婴儿健康带来危害的担忧。
The panel then informally accepted several general conclusions, although some details have not been settled.
随后,该小组非正式地接受了几条一般的结论,尽管有些细节尚无定论。
NBAC plans to call for a continued ban on federal government funding for any attempt to clone body cell nuclei to create a child.
NBAC计划呼吁继续禁止使用联邦政府基金利用人体细胞核去克隆婴孩的任何企图。
Because current federal law already forbids the use of federal funds to create embryos (the earliest stage of human offspring before birth) for research or to knowingly endanger an embryo's life, NBAC will remain silent on embryo research.
因为现行的联邦法律已经禁止使用联邦基金克隆研究用的胚胎(人类子代出生前的最早阶段)或有意识地危及胚胎的生命,NBAC在胚胎研究这一问题上保持沉默。
When a continental plate come to rest over a hot spot, the material rising from deeper layer creates a broad dome.
当大陆板块漂移到热点上方,来自地球深层的物质便形成了巨大的圆顶状隆起物。
As the dome grows, it develops deep fissures (cracks); in at least a few cases the continent may break entirely along some of these fissures, so that the hot spot initiates the formation of a new ocean.
随着这个圆顶的增长,板块出现深深的裂缝。至少有几次,大陆可能会沿着其中的一些裂缝完全裂开了,因此这个热点就引发了一个新的海洋的形成。
Thus just as earlier theories have explained the mobility of the continents, so hot spots may explain their mutability (inconstancy).
这样,正像早期的理论解释了大陆的移动性一样,热点理论或许能解释大陆板块的不稳定性。
"All men are created equal." We've heard it many times, but it still has important meaning for education in a democratic society.
