问答题The Theory of Continental Drift has had a long and turbulent history since it was first proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1910. (46)Vigorously challenged yet widely ignored, the theory had languished for half a century, primarily due to its lack of a plausible mechanism to support the proposed drift. With the discovery of sea-floor spreading in the late 1950's and early 60's, the idea was reinvigorated. Plate tectonics is now almost universally accepted. Many details of the mechanism are to be worked out. The surface of the Earth is divided into approximately six large plates, plus a number of smaller ones. The plates are bounded by an interconnected network of ridges, transform faults, and trenches. Ridges, also called spreading centers, occur where two plates are moving away from each other. As the plates separate, hot molten mantle material flows up to fill the void. (47) The increased heat resulting from this flow reduces the density of the plates, causing them to float higher, thus elevating the boundaries by many thousands of feet above the colder surrounding sea floor. (48) Ridges on the ocean floor form the longest continuous ranges of mountains on the planet, but only in a very few places on the Earth do these mountains rise above the ocean surface. New sea floor is constantly being created along spreading centers. Obviously somewhere else old sea floor must be going away. This occurs in trenches, also called subduction zones. Trenches occur along the boundary between two plates that are moving towards each other. (49) Where this occurs, one plate is bent downwards at about a 40o angle and plunges under the other plate's leading edge, eventually to melt back into the liquid mantle below. As the suhducting plate is heated back up to mantle temperatures, certain minerals in the plate melt sooner than others. (50) Minerals that melt at lower temperatures and are lighter than the surrounding material tend to rise, melting their way up through the overriding plate to erupt as volcanoes on the ocean floor. As these volcanoes grow, they rise above the ocean surface to form lines of islands along the leading edge of the overriding plate. Numerous islands of Micronesia and Melanesia in the western Pacific were created in this way.

问答题For years American conversation about Iraq has included a refrain
about how we cannot expect to create a Jeffersonian democracy on the Euphrates.
{{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}The warning is true: if you think
about it, America itself is not really a Jeffersonian democracy either; however,
Jefferson keeps coming to mind as the events in Iran unfolds{{/U}}. The events
there seem to be a chapter in the very Jeffersonian story of the death of
theocracy, or rule by clerics, and the gradual separation of church and state.
In one of the last letters of his life, in 1826, Jefferson said this of the
Declaration of Independence: {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}}
{{/U}}{{U}}"May it be to the world what I believe it will be, the signal of arousing
men to burst the chains, under which monkish ignorance and superstition had
persuaded them to bind themselves."{{/U}} However strong they may
be for a time, religions authorities cannot finally survive modernity.{{U}}
{{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}And this is because one of the key features
of modernity is the shift of emphasis from the privileges and power of
institutions to the rights and relative autonomy of the individual.{{/U}} In many
ways, the modem virtues are the ones we associate with democracy: a flee flow of
ideas, capital and people in an ethos in which men and women are free to form
their own opinions and follow the dictates of their own consciences. {{U}}
{{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}By their very nature, religious authorities
are at risk in the face of such a world, for they are founded on an un-modern
and undemocratic idea.{{/U}} To say that religious authorities
are doomed is not to argue that religion is any less important in our age. Quite
the opposite! Religious faith is an intrinsic element of human experience,
and religion can be the undoing of a religious establishment, for an
individual's interpretation of the applications of faith to politics may well
differ from the institutional interpretation. There is a deep irony at work
here. {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}Religious authorities
usually command the teaching of religion, but the teaching of religion can lead
not to uniform public belief but to a questioning of orthodoxy, which is always
a favorite activity of a new generation.{{/U}} The products of one world often
react against the world of their parents, and yesterday's outsiders are today's
insiders. The promise of theocracy has to go unfulfilled, for no one can bring
sacred order to profane chaos.

问答题As a young bond trader, Buttonwood was given two pieces of advice, trading rules of thumb, if you will: that bad economic news is good news for bond markets and that every utterance dropping from the lips of Paul Volcker, the then chairman of the Federal Reserve, and the man who restored the central bank"s credibility by stomping on runaway inflation, should be respected than Pope"s orders. Today"s traders are, of course, a more sophisticated bunch. But the advice still seems good, apart from two slight drawbacks. The first is that the well-chosen utterances from the present chairman of the Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan, is of more than passing difficulty.
1
The second is that, of late, good news for the economy has not seemed to upset bond investors all that much.
For all the cheer that has crackled down the wires, the yield on ten-year bonds—which you would expect to rise on good economic news—is now, at 4.2%, only two-fifths of a percentage point higher than it was at the start of the year. Pretty much unmoved, in other words.
Yet the news from the economic front has been better by far than anyone could have expected. On Tuesday November 25th, revised numbers showed that America"s economy grew by an annual 8.2% in the third quarter, a full percentage point more than originally thought, driven by the ever-spendthrift American consumer and, for once, corporate investment.
2
Just about every other piece of information coming out from special sources shows the same strength.
New houses are still being built at a fair clip. Exports are rising, for all the protectionist crying. Even employment, in what had been mocked as a jobless recovery, increased by 125,000 or thereabouts in September and October.
3
Rising corporate profits, low credit spreads and the biggest-ever rally in the junk-bond market do not, on the face of it, suggest anything other than a deep and long-lasting recovery.
Yet Treasury-bond yields have fallen.
If the rosy economic backdrop makes this odd, making it doubly odd is an apparent absence of foreign demand Foreign buyers of Treasuries, especially Asian certral banks, who had been swallowing American government debt like there was no tomorrow, seem to have had second thoughts lately.
4
In September, according to the latest available figures, foreigners bought only $5-6 billion of Treasuries, compared with
$25.1 billion the previous month and an average of $38.7 billion in the preceding four months.
5
In an effort to keep a lid on the yen"s rise, the Japanese central bank is still busy buying dollars and parking the money in government debt.
Just about everyboby else seems to have been selling.

问答题Today, as millions of men and women of childbearing age and younger are surviving cancer, the question of reproduction is arising as a paramount consideration in planning treatment. 46)Among the issues are the ability to preserve fertility while curing, the disease and the safety of pregnancy for both mothers with cancer and their future children. In a continuing study of more than 20,000 survivors of childhood cancers, the two greatest concerns mentioned by former patients two and three decades later are "Can I have children?" and "If I have children, will they be healthy?" said Dr. Leslie Robison, an epidemiologist(流行病学)at the University of Minnesota Medical School, who directs the project involving 25 cancer centers. 47)"Today more than 75 percent of children with cancer are being cured, yet we know little about the side effects of treatment beyond the first 10 years." While some cancer treatments-drugs as well as radiation-can cause sterility(不育)or reduced fertility(生育能力)in men and women, preliminary evidence suggests that cancer therapy, in general, affects the ability to reproduce and to produce healthy children less than previously thought. 48)At the same rime? new ways are being devised to reduce the effects of cancer treatments on fertility and on pregnancies already in progress when a cancer is discovered. In the. first report on reproductive issues from the 25-center study, soon to be published in The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the researchers found that while higher rates of miscarriage(流产)and lower birth weights were observed among the offspring of former patients, "there are a large number of live births, births of healthy children, a lack of congenital (先天的)abnormalities and very low cancer rates," Dr. Robison said. Dr. Giuseppe Del Priore, direct6r of gynecologic oncology(妇产科肿瘤学) at Bellevue Hospital in New York, and his colleagues at the New York University School of Medicine noted in the January issue of Contemporary Ob/Gyn: 49)"Less than a generation ago, reproductive-aged women with cancer generally had little to hope for and even less to look forward to. But things have changed. Many cancers are no longer a death sentence. More and more women with cancer are now becoming pregnant and raising legitimate fertility concerns." Today, a doctor could tell Ms. Zea of Minnesota and other women like her that pregnancy is no longer ill-advised. 50 )Even women whose breast cancers are discovered during pregnancy should no longer be advised to terminate the pregnancy, because there are no data indicating a therapeutic benefit from such an abortion, the New York experts said. The estrogen(雌激素)produced m pregnancy is weaker than estrogen produced in other women and is less likely to stimulate breast cancer growth, even if the woman's tumor is estrogen-sensitive.
