问答题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}}Read the following text carefully and then translate
the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written neatly
on ANSWER SHEET 2.
The level of economic and industrial development enjoyed by a
state affects the foreign policy goals it can pursue. (46) {{U}}As a general
proposition, the more developed a state is economically, the more likely it is
that it will play an activist role in the world political economy.{{/U}} Rich
nations have interests that extend far beyond their borders and typically
command the means necessary to pursue and protect them. (47) {{U}}Not
coincidentally, countries that enjoy industrial capabilities and extensive
involvement in international trade also tend to be militarily powerful, in part
because military might is a function of economic capabilities. {{/U}}For two
decades after world war two, the United States and the Soviet Union stood out as
superpowers precisely because they benefited from that combination of economic
and military capability including extensive arsenals of nuclear weapons and the
means to deliver them anywhere, that enabled both to practice unrestrained
globalism. Their imperial reach and interventionist behaviors were seemingly
unrestrained by limited wealth or resources. In fact, major powers have been
involved in foreign conflict more frequently than minor powers.
Although economically advanced nations are more active globally, this does
not mean that their privileged circumstances dictate adventuresome policies.
Rich nations are usually "satisfied" ones that have much to lose from the
onset of revolutionary change or global instability. (48) {{U}}For this reason,
they usually perceive preservation of the status quo as serving their interests
best, and they often practice international economic policies designed to
protect and expand their envied position at the pinnacle of the global
hierarchy. {{/U}} Levels of productivity and prosperity also
affect the foreign policies of the poor states at the bottom of the hierarchy.
(49) {{U}}Some respond to their economic weakness by complying subserviently
with the wishes of the rich on which they depend. Others rebel defiantly, and
they sometimes succeed in resisting major power efforts to control their
international behavior. {{/U}} Hence efforts to generalize about
the economic foundations of states' international political behavior often prove
unrewarding. Levels of economic development vary widely among states in
the international system, but they do not by themselves determine foreign
policies. (50) {{U}}Instead the opportunities and constraints that leaders
perceive in their nation's attributes, rather than the actual level of
development, may be the determining source of states' international conduct.

问答题Register (南开大学2010研)
问答题The world's long romance with speed may finally be ending. Even if Concorde (协和式飞机) flies again, its antique nature was revealed as soon as the Paris accident made people scratch their heads and ask quite why these odd aircraft were still flying. Much of the technology that surrounded us has, when we look at it afresh, a Jules Verne quality solving problems that once seemed important in ways that ingenious but not necessarily efficient or safe. The reorientation of science toward the biological and computer frontiers is now truism, but the 19th-century fascination with motive power has retained a powerful hold on our imaginations and our economies. (1) Advances in motive power were for a long while the main way in which progress and national competition in technology were measured. First at sea, then on the railways, then on the roads, in the air and finally in space, more and more repaid movement was seen as a carefree good thing and also, in some vague way, as a key to a fuller understanding of the world. So intoxicating was this ultimate way in which the growing speed and reach of man-made vehicles could be used that when an unknown rocket enthusiast called Hermann Oberth published his By Rocket to Interplanetary Space in the 1920s, it represented such an escape from the difficulties of the present to the anxious citizens of Weimar Germany (德国魏玛共和国) that it became a bestseller overnight. (2) For individual sportsmen, pilots and drivers, speed had the status of a privileged substance to which, in those early days, only a minority had full access. Mechanized speed made men, and a few women, into heroes, and it remains a commodity to which males, in particular, are attracted. The front of the Boys Own Annual of half a century ago would typically feature a speeding train in the middle ground, a fast aeroplane above, and a racing car in the foreground, its time and behind the times, since the era of small-scale luxury air travel was over. A preoccupation with speed has always gone hand in hand with a preoccupation with safety, the two standards between them providing a way in which advanced states calibrate the state of civilization. Increasing speeds have indicated technical progress, while accidents indicate loss of control. The first world lives in constant fear of regression, of losing the scientific and organizational edge that enables it to be both fast and safe. That is one reason why air and sea accidents can attain such mythic status. The disparate treatment of first and third world accidents in the Western press is probably due more to the feeling that accidents are indicators of technical health than to any devaluation of African or Asian lives. Speed still has its kingdom, but it is shrinking. Its limits have long ago been reached on the roads, and its value in the air, even for manned military aircraft, is diminished agility and protection are as or more important. (3) It is still marginally attractive to make trains go faster. The pursuit of physical speed has been replaced by the pursuit of near instantaneity on the Net, an aim which we may in time come to regard just as skeptically. It is hard to imagine the mood in which David Lean's The Sound Barrier was made in 1952. Breaking that barrier seemed to hold the key to a mystery, but there was no mystery. Man can go faster, but that does not mean it is worth doing so.

问答题The American mathematician Norbert Wiener first gave common use to the word "cybernetics" (from the Greek word for "steersman", "kubernetes" ), to describe that branch of study which is concemed with self-regulating systems of communication and control in living organisms and machines. The derivation seems apt, since the primary function of many cybernetic systems is to steer an optimum course through changing conditions towards a predetermined goal.
We know from long experience that stable objects are those with broad bases and with most of their mass centred low, yet we seldom marvel at our own remarkable ability to stand up right, supported only by our jointed legs and narrow feet. To stay erect even when pushed, or when the surface beneath us moves, as on a ship or a bus; to be able to walk or run over rough ground without falling; to keep cool when it is hot or vice versa, are examples of cybernetic processes and of properties exclusive to living things and to highly automated machines.
