A great deal of attention is being paid today to the so-called digital divide — the division of the world into the info(information) rich and the info poor.
今天,人们十分关注所谓的是信息差异问题——世界上信息资源丰富的地区和信息资源贫乏的地区之间的差异;
And that divide does exist today.
这个差异确实存在,
My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago.
我和我妻子20年前就曾谈及这个临近的危险。
What was less visible then, however, were the new, positive forces that work against the digital divide.

Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of.

It serves directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable price, thereby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices.
它直接有助于商品以合理的价格销售,由此建立稳固的国内市场,并使商品能以富有竞争力的价格出口。
By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise standards of living.
它吸引人们对新观念的注意,极大地提高生活标准。
By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need for labour, and is therefore an effective way to fight unemployment.
广告有助于增加市场需求,从而确保对劳动力需求的增加,因此是遏制失业的一个有效方法。
It lowers the costs of many services: without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much, the price of your television licence would need to be doubled, and travel by bus or tube would cost 20 per cent more.
它降低了多种服务费用,没有广告,每天看的报纸价格会上涨四倍,电视收视费会翻番,公共汽车或地铁票也得提高20%以上。
If its message were confined merely to information — and that in itself would be difficult if not impossible to achieve, for even a detail such as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtly persuasive — advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention.
如果广告的内容仅仅限于提供信息(虽说这不是不可能做到的,但它本身也是很难做的,因为哪怕是挑衬衫颜色这样的细节也带有几分劝诱性),那会令人生厌,以致没人再去理会。
But perhaps that is what the well-known television personality wants.
但也许这就是那位著名电视人所希望看到的。

There are still regimes seeking weapons of mass destruction -- but no longer without attention and without consequence. Our country is still the target of terrorists who want to kill many, and intimidate us all -- and we will stay on the offensive against them, until the fight is won," he said.
布什总统说,美国在经历了9/11恐怖主义袭击之后已经采取了前所未有的行动来自卫。但是他说,还有许多工作要做。他说:“现在还有一些政府支持并庇护恐怖分子。但是,这些政府的数目已经减少。还有一些政权谋求获得大规模杀伤性武器,但是他们已经不能不受注意,不面临后果。我们的国家依然是那些想要杀死很多人、恐吓所有的人的恐怖分子的袭击目标。我们将继续对他们展开攻势,直至获得战斗胜利。

Speaking on the ABC television program, This Week, Mr. Powell said the international community must insist that Iran declare its full nuclear intent. "At what point do we say to the Iranians that this [nuclear issue] is now a matter for the entire United Nations Security Council to deal with?" he asked. "The Iranians are under enormous pressure, and every day or so they say, 'It [the nuclear program] is only peaceful, and we are willing to give assurances.' We [the United States] are the ones who called attention to this problem and said that the international community has to do something about it."
鲍威尔星期天在美国广播公司的“本星期”节目上表示,国际社会必须坚持要求伊朗公布其所有的核计划。鲍威尔说:“我们要等到什么时候才能告诉伊朗民众他们的核问题已经成为联合国安理会需要处理的问题?伊朗现在处于巨大的压力之下,他们每天都说,‘我们的核项目只是用于和平用途,我们保证是这样。’是美国让伊朗问题引起国际社会的关注,国际社会应该解决这个问题。”
To that end, the committee heard a plethora of recommendations from members of the September 11 Commission who argued that the United States must focus attention on the dreams and aspirations of countless Muslims who may be wary or even disdainful of the United States, but who are not hardened terrorists. Commission members recommended expanding foreign assistance programs that have an impact on education, infrastructure and economic opportunity as well as boosting U.S.-funded television broadcasts to Muslim nations.
就这一问题,听证会还听取了9-11事件调查委员会委员们的大量建议。他们认为:美国必须关注大量怀有梦想和抱负的穆斯林。这些人可能担忧甚至蔑视美国,但并不是死心踏地的“恐怖主义分子”。调查委员会的成员们建议:扩大那些对穆斯林国家影响着教育、基础设施、就业机会以及美国出资的电视广播等的对外援助计划。

当然大会的议题还是集中在伊拉克问题上。大会反映了克里的观点,就是美国必须继续努力,在伊拉克创造一个稳定、安全的环境,同时要争取伊拉克军事行动国际化。
APPEAL TO A HIGHER AUTHORITY
If your boss becomes intolerably abusive, you may have to go above his head to your personnel department or senior manager. But before you take this course, discreetly, ask coworkers if they've clashed with your boss in the past. Ideally, they will back you up and permit you to mention their names when you make your charges. That way, you can bring a pattern of behavior to management's attention. Begin by asking, “Can I have a discussion with you off the record?" Then cite examples that show how your boss's treatment negatively affects your performance. Make it clear that you want to improve the situation, not punish your boss. If discipline is what he needs, let the higher-ups make that call.
诉诸更高的上级
如果你的老板滥用权力到了令人难以容忍的地步,你就得越过他直接找人事部门或高级经理了。但在你采取这一步骤之前,要谨慎地询问一下同事,他们是否过去也与你的老板有过冲突。他们可能会支持你并且允许你在上告时提到他们的名字。这样你就可以提请公司主管注意你老板的不当行为。你可以这样发问:“我能和你作一次非正式的谈话吗?”然后举例说明你上司的作法如何影响你的工作。你要表明你想改进现状,而非惩罚你的老板。如果你的老板需要纪律约束的话,那就让上级打电话通知他吧.

Mania without psychotic symptoms
Mood is elevated out of keeping with the patient's circumstances and may vary from
carefree joviality to almost uncontrollable excitement. Elation is accompanied by
increased energy, resulting in overactivity, pressure of speech, and a decreased need for
sleep. Attention cannot be sustained, and there is often marked distractibility.
Self-esteem is often inflated with grandiose ideas and overconfidence. Loss of normal
social inhibitions may result in behaviour that is reckless, foolhardy, or inappropriate
to the circumstances, and out of character.

Acute stress reaction
A transient disorder that develops in an individual without any other apparent mental
disorder in response to exceptional physical and mental stress and that usually subsides
within hours or days. Individual vulnerability and coping capacity play a role in the
occurrence and severity of acute stress reactions. The symptoms show a typically mixed and
changing picture and include an initial state of "daze" with some constriction
of the field of consciousness and narrowing of attention, inability to comprehend stimuli,
and disorientation. This state may be followed either by further withdrawal from the
surrounding situation (to the extent of a dissociative stupor-F44.2), or by agitation
and over-activity (flight reaction or fugue). Autonomic signs of panic anxiety
(tachycardia, sweating, flushing) are commonly present. The symptoms usually appear within
minutes of the impact of the stressful stimulus or event, and disappear within two to
three days (often within hours). Partial or complete amnesia (F44.0) for the episode may
be present. If the symptoms persist, a change in diagnosis should be considered.
