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 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."

When they realize what they want, they feel regretful. For the lucky person, they have the chance to restart, while for some don’t, they just live the life without passion. 许多人很难做出决定,因为他们不知道自己想要什么,然后只是随大流。当他们意识到他们想要的东西时,会感到遗憾。幸运的人,他们有机会重来,而对于一些不幸运的人,他们过着没有激情的生活。 I remembered before we went to college, we needed to choose the major. Most students did not know what to do, so they made a survey, the hot major which was believed to have the promising future was their first choice. As they studied, some would find they had no interest but they just couldn’t give up. If they thought twice before act, then they would not follow the crowd. 我记得在我们上大学之前,我们需要选择专业。大多数学生不知道要做什么,所以他们做了一个调查,被认为最有前途的热门专业是他们的第一选择。当他们在学习专业的时候,有些人会发现他们毫无兴趣,但是又不能放弃。如果深思熟虑,那么他们就不会随波逐流。 I appreciate the saying that you are so special, why you have to follow the crowd. Indeed, some make their decision for the purpose of catering for others, which go against their will. If people lose their individuality, they lose their soul. 我欣赏那句话，你是如此特别,为什么要随大众。事实上,一些人做决定只是为了迎合别人,这违背了他们的意愿。如果人们失去了他们的个性,就失去了灵魂。 适合每日朗读的英语小短文篇2 Today, as the life standard has improved, people have more money to chase amusement, travel is their first choice. So there are a lot of people on the journey during the public vacation, some people even quit their jobs to do it. The trip without plan was favored by many people since a few years ago, it was the attitude towards life. 今天,随着生活水平的提高,人们有更多的钱去追逐娱乐，旅行是他们的第一选择。因此在公共假期期间，有很多人在旅途中,有些人甚至放弃自己的工作去旅游。说走就走的旅行在几年前就受到了欢迎,这是一种生活态度。 Though people are proud of taking the independent travel, especially when they just go anytime and anywhere, only a few people take action. Some day, as I had the long summer vacation, I suddenly had the idea that I could take a trip without plan. So I asked two of my friends to joined my team. We booked the tickets and and hotel, then the next day, we took the train. We talked and appreciated the scenery outside the window. When we arrived the city, we just walked along the street and enjoyed the feature. 虽然人们为独立旅行而感受自豪,特别是当他们可以随时随地走,但是只有少数人采取行动。有一天,由于我有漫长的暑假,我突然有个主意,我可以来一场说走就走的旅行。所以我叫了两个朋友来加入我的团队。我们订了车票和酒店,然后第二天,乘火车走了。我们聊着天,欣赏着窗外的风景。当我们到达这个城市时,沿着街道走，享受这个城市的特色。 It was such great experience for me, sometimes we consider so many things and miss the joy of life.

We all know that it is natural to return our parents, so we work hard for the purpose of giving them more money and live the better life. Actually, the things that they want are not like these. 毫无疑问,父母是世界上最伟大的人,不管我们犯了什么错误,他们从未放弃我们。我们都知道,回报我们的父母是很自然的事情,所以我们努力工作的目的是给他们更多的钱,过更好的生活。实际上,他们想要的东西并不是这些。 The first thing they want is your time. As young people graduate and begin to work, they move far away from home and barely have time to visit their parents. Some even go back home once a year. The time stay with parents is the most precious thing in their eyes. The second thing is your attention. When they get sick, they want to hear from their children, which worths everything. Or a call now and then and talk to them console them. 他们首先想要的就是你的时间。由于年轻人毕业后开始工作,他们远离家园,几乎没有时间去看望他们的父母。有些人甚至一年回家一次。在父母眼中，陪伴他们的时间是最宝贵。第二就是你的注意力。当他们生病时,他们想听到孩子的话,这比一切都值。或者打个电话,然后一声问候能安慰他们。 Money is believed to be the best way to return our parents in most people’s eyes. But what parents want is their time and attention. As the popular song calls on people to visit parents often, it costs all to go back home and have dinner with parents. 在大多数人的眼里，钱被认为是回报我们父母的最好方式。但是父母想要的是他们的时间和注意力。正如有首流行歌曲呼吁人们经常回家看望父母,回家和父母吃顿饭值得一切。 猜你喜欢： 1.适合早晨朗读的英语美文 2.适合朗读的英语美文 3.适合朗读的英语短文精选 4.关于适合朗读的英语短文 5.英语美文适合朗诵的短文

Causes Are People
by Susan Parker Cobbs
IT HAS NOT been easy for me to meet this assignment. In the first place, I am not a very articulate person, and then one has so many beliefs, changing and fragmented and transitory beliefs---besides the ones most central to our lives. I have tried hard to pull out and put into words my most central beliefs. I hope that what I say won’t sound either too simple or too pious.
I know that it is my deep and fixed conviction that man has within him the force of good and the power to translate force into life. For me, this means that a pattern of life that makes personal relationships more important. A pattern that makes more beautiful and attractive the personal virtues: courage, humility, selflessness and love. I used to smile at my mother because the tears came so readily to her eyes when she heard or read of some incident that called out these virtues. I don’t smile any more because I find I have become more and more responsive in the same inconvenient way to the same kind of story.
And so I believe that I both can and must work to achieve the good that is in me. The words of Socrates keep coming back to me: “The unexamined life is not worth living.” By examination we can discover what is our good and we can realize that knowledge of good means its achievement. I know that such self-examination has never been easy---Plato maintained that it was soul’s central search. It seems to me peculiarly difficult now. In a period of such rapid material expansion and such wide spread conflicts, black and white have become gray and will not easily separate.
There is a belief which follows this. If I have the potential of the good life within me and compulsion to express it, then it is a power and compulsion common to all men. What I must have for myself to conduct my search, all men must have: freedom of choice, faith in the power and the beneficent qualities of truth. What frightens me most today is the denial of these rights, because this can only come from the denial of what seems to me the essential nature of man. For if my conviction holds, man is more important than anything he has created and our great task is to bring back again into a subordinate position the monstrous superstructures of our society.
I hope this way of reducing our problems to the human equation is not simple an evasion of them. I don’t believe it is. For most of us it is the area in which we can work : the human area---with ourselves, with the people we touch, and through these two by vicarious understanding, with mankind. I believe this is the safest starting point. I watch young people these days wrestling with our mighty problems. They are much more concerned with them and involved in them than my generation of students ever was. They are deeply aware of the words “quality” and “justice” In their great desire to right wrong they are prone to forget that causes are people, that nothing matters more than people. They need to add to their crusades the warmer and more affecting virtues of compassion and love. And here again come those personal virtues that bring tears to the eyes.
One further word, I believe that the power of good within us is real and comes there from a source outside and beyond ourselves. Otherwise, I could not put my trust so firmly in it.
Keep the Innocent Eye
By Sir Hugh Casson
When I Accepted the invitation to join in "This I Believe," it was not-goodness knows-because I felt I had anything profound to contribute. I regarded it-selfishly, perhaps-as a chance to get my own ideas straight. I started, because it seemed simplest that way, with my own profession. The signposts I try to follow as an architect are these: to keep the innocent eye with which we are all born, and therefore always to be astonished; to respect the scholar but not the style snob; to like what I like without humbug, but also to train my eye and mind so that I can say why I like it; to use my head but not to be frightened to listen to my heart (for there are some things which can be learned only through emotion); finally, to develop to the best of my ability the best that lies within me.
But what, you may say, about the really big problems of life- Religion? Politics? World Affairs? Well, to be honest, these great problems do not weigh heavily upon my mind. I have always cared more for the small simplicities of life-family affection, loyalty of friends, joy in creative work.
Religion? Well, when challenged I describe myself as "Church of England," and as a child I went regularly to church. But today, though I respect churchgoing as an act of piety and enjoy its sidelines, so to speak, the music and the architecture, it holds no significance for me. Perhaps, I don't know, it is the atmosphere of death in which religion is so steeped that has discouraged me-the graveyards, the parsonical voice, the thin damp smell of stone. Even today a "holy" face conjures up not saintliness but moroseness. So, most of what I learned of Christian morality I think I really learned indirectly at home and from friends.
World Affairs? I wonder if some of you remember a famous prewar cartoon. It depicted a crocodile emerging from a peace conference and announcing to a huge flock of sheep (labeled "People of the World"), "I am so sorry we have failed. We have been unable to restrain your warlike ambitions." Frankly, I feel at home with those sheep-mild, benevolent, rather apprehensive creatures, acting together by instinct and of course very, very woolly. But I have learned too, I think, that there is still no force, not even Christianity, so strong as patriotism; that the instinctive wisdom with which we all act in moments of crisis-that queer code of conduct which is understood by all but never formulated-is a better guide than any panel of professors; and finally that it is the inferiority complex, usually the result of an unhappy or unlucky home, which is at the bottom of nearly all our troubles. Is the solution, then, no more than to see that every child has a happy home? I'm not sure that it isn't. Children are nearer truth than we are. They have the innocent eye.
If you think that such a philosophy of life is superficial or tiresomely homespun or irresponsible, I will remind you in reply that the title of this series is "This I Believe”-not "This I ought to believe," nor even "This I would like to believe”-but, "This I Believe."
Dreams Are the Stuff Life Is Made Of
By Carroll Carroll
I believe I am a very lucky man.
My entire life has been lived in the healthy area between too little and too much. I’ve never experienced financial or emotional insecurity, but everything I have, I’ve attained by my own work, not through indulgence, inheritance, or privilege.
Never having lived by the abuses of any extreme, I’ve always felt that a workman is worthy of his hire, a merchant entitled to his profit, an artist to his reward.
As a result of all this, my bargaining bump may be a little underdeveloped, so I’ve never tried to oversell myself. And though I may work for less than I know I can get, I find that because of this, I’m never so afraid of losing a job that I’m forced to compromise with my principles.
Naturally in a life as mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially fortunate as mine has been, a great many people have helped me. A few meant to, most did so by accident. I still feel I must reciprocate. This doesn’t mean that I’ve dedicated my life to my fellow man. I’m not the type. But I do feel I should help those I’m qualified to help, just as I’ve been helped by others.
What I’m saying now is, I feel, part of that pattern. I think everyone should, for his own sake, try to reduce to six hundred words the beliefs by which he lives—it’s not easy—and then compare those beliefs with what he enjoys—not in real estate and money and goods, but in love, health, happiness, and laughter.
I don’t believe we live our lives and then receive our reward or punishment in some afterlife. The life and the reward…the life and the punishment—these to me are one. This is my religion, coupled with a firm belief that there is a Supreme Being who planned this world and runs it so that “no man is an island, entire of himself…” The dishonesty of any one man subverts all honesty. The lack of ethics anywhere adulterates the whole world’s ethical content. In these—honesty and ethics—are, I think, the true spiritual values.
I believe the hope for a thoroughly honest and ethical society should never be laughed at. The most idealistic dreams have repeatedly forecast the future. Most of the things we think of today as hard, practical, and even indispensable were once merely dreams.
So I like to hope that the world need not be a dog-eat-dog jungle. I don’t think I’m my brother’s keeper. But I do think I’m obligated to be his helper. And that he has the same obligation to me.
In the last analysis, the entire pattern of my life and belief can be found in the words “do NOT do unto others that which you would NOT have others do unto you.” To say “Do unto others as you would have others DO unto you” somehow implies bargaining, an offer of favor for favor. But to restrain from acts which you, yourself, would abhor is an exercise in will power that must raise the level of human relationship.
“What is unpleasant to thyself,” says Hillel, “THAT do NOT unto thy neighbor. This is the whole law,” and he concluded, “All else is exposition.”
