科普英语翻译专项练习（讲稿）
1. Of the thousands of lines in the sun’s spectrum, most can be definitely
identified with those of elements known on the earth. 太阳光谱中的几千条谱线，绝大多数能够确切地与地球上的已知的元素谱线相吻合。
2. One of the beauties of the medicine is the absence of aftereffects. 这种药品的优点之一是没有副作用。
3. All the wit and learning in this field are to be present at the symposium. 这一领域的全部学者都将出席这次专题讨论研讨会。
4. By experimentation, imagination, and reasoning, mathematics are discovering
new facts and ideas that science and engineering are using to change our civilization.
通过实验、想象和推理，数学家们正在寻求新论据新观念，从而使科学家
和工程师们用之以促进人类文明的发展。
5. Every British motorist will tell you that radar is used most unfairly by the
police to catch drivers who are accidentally going a little faster than the speed limit.
每一个驾驶汽车的英国人都会告诉你，警察用雷达来抓那些只是偶尔稍微超速行驶的驾车人，这种做法很不公平。
6. The champions of hearing, by any standard, are the bats. Bat sounds long
went undetected by man because they are pitched two to three octaves (八度音阶) above what we can hear. But to a number of bats flying around on a calm, still summer evening—and to the unfortunate moths (蛾) that can hear them and must try to avoid them—the evening is anything but calm. It is a madhouse of constant screaming. Each bat sends out a series of screams in short pulses, each lasting less than a hundredth of a second.
7. 不管用哪一种标准来衡量，听力的冠军都是蝙蝠。蝙蝠发出的声音在长
时间内不为人类所觉察到，因为它们发出的声音要比我们所能听见的高2到3个八度。但是对于在安宁而又寂静的夏天的傍晚到处飞翔的许多蝙蝠 — 以及对于那些能听见它们声音而必须设法避开它们的不幸的蛾来说，这个夜晚一点儿也不宁静。那简直是一个不断在发出尖叫声的疯人院。每一只蝙蝠发出一连串短脉冲的尖叫声，每一声的持续时间还不到百分之一秒。
8. If ignorance about the nature of pain is widespread，ignorance about the way
pain-killing drugs work is even more so. What is not generally understood is that many of the boasted pain-killing drugs conceal the pain without correcting the underlying condition. The abuse of pain killing drugs will deaden the mechanism in the body that alerts the brain to the fact that something may be wrong. The body can pay a high price for suppression of pain without regard to its basic cause.
如果说人们对疼痛的本质普遍不甚了解，那么他们对止痛药是如何起作用的就更是一无所知了。人们所知甚少的是许多这种被吹嘘为止痛药的药物在止痛时并没有消除产生疼痛的根源。滥用止痛药会使人体中向脑子警告有什么地方可能出了毛病的机制变麻木。光是镇痛而不考虑疼痛的根本原因，会使人体付出高昂的代价。
