Lilies tweak their fruit and seeds to ensure their propagation

百合对其果实和种子进行改造,以确保其繁殖

Spit it out

把种子吐出来

African bush lilies are demanding plants.To thrive,they need dappled shade—for they are sensitive to full sunlight—and well-drained soil.They are therefore patchily distributed,growing only in microclimates where these conditions pertain.

非洲灌木百合是一种对生长环境有着严苛要求的植物。为了能够茁壮生长,它们需要斑驳的树荫(它们对充足的阳光很敏感)和排水良好的土壤。因此,它们往往散落分布,仅在这些条件适宜的小气候中生长。

That means their seeds are likely to do best if they germinate near the plant that bore them.Too near,though,and they will compete with that parent for resources.

这意味着,这些种子如果在播种它们的植物附近将会生长的最好。但是,如果靠的太近将会和它们的母代植物争夺资源。

Somehow,a way needs to be arranged for seeds to be carried the optimum distance from their parental plants.And Ian Kiepiel and Steven Johnson at the University of KwaZulu-Natal,in South Africa,think they know how it happens.

于是乎,需要通过某种途径让种子和母代植物保持最佳的距离。南非夸祖鲁-纳塔尔省大学的伊恩·基尔和史蒂文·约翰逊认为他们知道这是如何实现的了。

Plants are masters at manipulating animals into assisting their reproduction.One way this happens is that the seeds of many species are just the right size and shape to endure passage through the alimentary canals of the animals that swallow them.

植物是操纵动物协助其繁殖的专家。其中的一种方式便是,许多植物种子的大小和形状正好适合动物吞下从而进入其消化道。

When they eventually end up as part of a dung pile,they are thus far from home.The bush lily’s predicament,however,suggested to Mr Kiepiel and Dr Johnson that it was not in the plant’s best interest for animals to swallow its seeds in the first place.

当最终成为粪堆的一部分时,它们离家就很远了。但是,灌木百合的窘境向基尔和约翰逊暗示,动物直接将种子吞下并不符合这种植物的最佳利益。

Closer examination of those seeds supported that notion.They lacked the protective layers seen in seeds of the sort that are swallowed.They were also laced with lycorine,a toxin that,depending on the dose,causes vomiting,paralysis or death.

对这些种子的进一步研究也印证了这一观点。灌木百合的种子缺乏能够被吞下的种子所具有的保护层。同时,灌木百合的种子还含有石蒜碱,这是一种在不同剂量下会导致呕吐、瘫痪或死亡的毒素。

This led Mr Kiepiel to wonder whether the fruit themselves were edible.To this end he experimented on himself and found that they were.Though not particularly pleasant to his taste,lily-fruit flesh had a vague sweetness to it which he suspected might be attractive to other mammals.

这让基尔怀疑灌木百合的果实是否能够食用。为此,他在自己身上做了实验,结果发现确实如此。灌木百合的果肉虽然不是很好吃,但是有一种淡淡的甜味,他认为这可能对其他哺乳动物具有吸引力。

He did find also,however,that the seeds tasted ghastly.A mere nibble of one was enough to release an awful astringent flavour that lingered on his palate for hours,regardless of any attempt to wash out his mouth.

然而,他也确实发现了灌木百合种子的可怕之处。仅仅咬了一点就会尝到一种让人讨厌的涩味,这种味道在他的味蕾上停留了几个小时,不管他怎么漱口都洗不掉。

In light of this experience,he and Dr Johnson set up movement-sensitive cameras at three bush-lily colonies.As they report in Biotropica,over the course of a hundred days these cameras took photographs and videos of samango monkeys coming to the plants and devouring their fruit.

根据这一经历,基尔和约翰逊在三个灌木百合聚集地安装了运动感应相机。正如他们发表在《热带生物学》杂志上的文章所描述的那样,在100天的时间里,这些相机拍下了青长尾猴来到植物前吞食灌木百合果实的照片和视频。

Often,when feeding,such monkeys fill their cheek pouches with fruit, which they then consume later,within the safety of a tree.In this case, though,the cameras recorded the monkeys gorging themselves on the fruit while next to the lilies,and only rarely storing fruit in their pouches. Why is not clear.But significantly,the cameras showed that the monkeys were,straight away,spitting out the seeds of every fruit they fed on.

这些猴子在进食时,通常会在它们的颊囊里装满果实,然后找个树边安全之处再食用。然而,在这种情况下,相机记录下了猴子在灌木百合边狼吞虎咽地吃果实的情景,而且它们很少会把灌木百合的果实装在颊囊里。原因尚不清楚。但值得注意的是,相机显示,这些猴子会立刻吐出它们所吃的每一个灌木百合果实的种子。

This habit of spitting out seeds suggested that the monkeys might be distributing them just far enough from their source to keep competition between parents and offspring at a minimum.

这种吐出种子的习惯表明,这些猴子可能会把种子散布到距离其来源之处足够远的地方,从而使母代和子代之间的竞争最小化。

To check this,the researchers visited two of the sites,collected as many spat-out seeds as they could find,and measured those seeds’distances from their probable sources—nearby plants that had been fed on.Those distances averaged63cm at one of the sites and66cm at the other.

为了验证这一点,研究人员走访了其中的两个点,尽可能多地收集了猴子吐出的种子,并测量了这些种子与它们可能来源(即附近可供喂食的灌木百合)之间的距离。其中一个点的平均距离为63厘米,另一个点为66厘米。

This is exactly far enough to avoid competition while remaining within the microclimate.In the case of African bush lilies,then,it seems that evolution has optimised their reproduction by embedding noxious seeds inside tasty fruit,and letting the monkeys do the rest.

这个距离足以避免竞争,同时又留在了小气候中。以非洲灌木百合为例,物种进化似乎优化了它们的繁殖,将有毒的种子嵌入美味的果实之中,剩下的事就让猴子来完成吧。(红色标注词为重难点词汇)

Convalescent plasma and artificial antibodies:Survivors as saviours 恢复期血浆和人工抗体:康复者成为了人们的救星 During the flu pandemic of1918-19doctors at an American naval hospital developed a treatment which,according to the American Journal of Public Health,had“a decided influence in shortening the course of the disease and in lowering the mortality”. 据《美国公共卫生杂志》报道称,在1918年至1919年的流感大流行期间,美国一家海军医院的医生研发了一种能够“有效缩短疾病病程并降低患者死亡率”的治疗方法。It involved clotting and then centrifuging blood from people who had got over the disease so as to separate out the antibodies it contained,then giving those antibodies to patients in dire need. 该方法是对处于恢复期的病人的血液进行采集和离心,进而分离出含有抗体的血浆,然后将其用于那些亟待治疗的患者。 Since then antibody-rich“convalescent plasma”(CP)has been used as a treatment for various diseases,including SARS and the pandemic strains of H1N1and H5N1influenza.Now covid-19has joined the list. 从那时起,富含抗体的“恢复期血浆”被广泛用于治疗包括SARS以及H1N1和H5N1流感大流行在内的各种疾病。如今,新冠肺炎也也位列其中。 A recent study in Wuhan found that severely ill covid-19patients treated with CP did significantly better than patients matched with them by age, gender and severity of infection had done earlier in the epidemic. 最近在武汉进行的一项研究发现,相比疫情早期那些年龄、性别和病情相当的新冠肺炎患者,接受恢复期血浆治疗的重症患者的治疗效果明显要好一些。

2019考研英语作文模板必背大作文二 The past several years have witnessed a phenomenon that a variety of promises have been arising from all walks of life. Regretfully, quite a lot of promises are sheer nonsense, just as the hen in the given cartoon commits herself to lay eggs which are round without any angles and corners and have shells, egg whites and yolks. Odd and funny as they sound, such false promises can be seen and heard everywhere in our country. Administration departments assure to perform their tasks effectively and fairly without taking any bribes; manufacturing units guarantee to turn out products of good quality; commercial enterprises swear to provide genuine commodities and polite and enthusiastic services. Can you find anything new and substantial other than their obligations, duties and jobs in these so called promises? I guess your answer will be negative. As a matter of fact, their intention to make such commitments is nothing but to put on civilized outer clothing to please or deceive the public. I dare say that our society is suffering corruption and cheat which are causing damage to society both materially and morally. But the hen and

Youngsters’job preferences and prospects are mismatched 年轻人的工作偏好与就业前景不相匹配 Teenage picks 青少年的选择 The world of work is changing.Are people ready for the new job outlook? A survey of15-year-olds across41countries by the OECD,a club of mostly rich countries,found that teenagers may have unrealistic expectations about the kind of work that will be available. 职业的世界正在发生变化。人们做好准备接受新的就业观了吗?世界经合组织(一个以发达国家为主的组织)对41个国家的15岁青少年进行了一项调查,结果发现青少年对于未来可能从事的工作抱有不切实际的期望。 Four of the five most popular choices were traditional professional roles: doctors,teachers,business managers and lawyers. Teenagers clustered around the most popular jobs,with the top ten being chosen by47%of boys and53%of girls.Those shares were significantly higher than when the survey was conducted back in2000. 在五个最受欢迎的职业选择中有四个是传统的职业角色:医生、教师、企业经理和律师。青少年对于最受欢迎工作的选择呈现了聚集性,有47%的男孩和53%的女孩选择了排在前十位的职业。这一比例显著高于2000年调查时的水平。 The rationale for this selection was partly down to wishful thinking on the part of those surveyed(designers,actors and musical performers were three of the top15jobs).Youth must be allowed a bit of hope. 受访者做出这一选择往往是出于自己的一厢情愿(最受欢迎的15个职业中有3个分别是设计师、演员和歌手)。我们必须给年轻人一点希望。

Cloth of gold 一块价值堪比黄金的布 Why the economic value of a face mask is$56.14 为什么说一个口罩的经济价值是56.14美元 After a brutal first six months of the year,governments across the world are hoping for an economic bounce-back.Rich-world GDP fell by about 10%in the first half of2020. 在经历今年上半年的残酷考验后,世界各国政府都期待经济能够触底反弹。2020年上半年,发达国家的GDP下降了约10%。 Yet much has changed since—including that more people are now wearing masks.Economists,obsessed with translating everything into GDP,wonder if more widespread face-covering could help the recovery.然而,自从越来越多的人戴上口罩后,情况发生了显著变化。经济学家痴迷于用GDP来解释一切事物,如今他们想知道,随着更多的人戴上了口罩,经济能否走向复苏。The thinking goes that masks can,in part,substitute for lockdowns. People wearing them need not be discouraged as much from using public transport.More shops and offices might be able to reopen,albeit while practising social distancing. 这种想法基于这样一个逻辑,戴口罩在一定程度上可以代替封锁措施。当人们戴上口罩后,就不必再对公共交通工具进行限制了。更多的商店和办公室也将重新开放,尽管是在保持社交距离的前提下。 Calculations from Goldman Sachs,a bank,suggest that a15 percentage-point rise in the share of the population that wears masks

Tencent Video battles iQiyi in China’s streaming wars腾讯视频与爱奇艺之中国流媒体大战 But the two big Chinese streaming platform may onc day settle into a cosy duopoly 但两大平台在未来某天或将实现双头垄断 L aunched in2010,iQiyi has grown used to the foreign press calling it“the Netflix of China”.Not the worst nickname,given the videostreaming pioneer’s success.But Gong Yu,iQiyi’s founder and boss,insists that his firm is more accurately described as“Netflix plus”.A bold claim for a loss-making business worth one-fifteenth as much as America’s(cash-generating)entertainment powerhouse with a market value of$214bn.Still,Mr Gong has a point. 创立于2010年的爱奇艺常常被外国媒体称为“中国版网飞”。鉴于这家流媒体先驱的成功,这一称号也算名副其实。但爱奇艺创始人兼老板龚宇坚称,准确来说,爱奇艺是“加强版网飞”。对于这家仍在亏损的公司来说,这种说法有些张狂,作为美国娱乐业巨头的网飞现已实现盈利,市值高达2140亿美元,而爱奇艺市值仅为其十五分之一。不过,龚宇所言仍有些许道理。 Like Netflix,iQiyi offers customers a deep catalogue of licensed and original content.Unlike Netflix,which relies almost entirely on subscription fees,iQiyi has multiple revenue streams.“Membership fees”,which start from19.8yuan ($2.87)a month,accounted for just over half of iQiyi’s7.4bn yuan in revenues in the second quarter. 爱奇艺和网飞一样,也为客户提供海量版权及原创影视作品。但不同于几乎完全依赖会员费的网飞,爱奇艺拥有多项收入来源。在爱奇艺第二季度74亿元的营收中,每月19.8元(约合2.87美元)起的“会员费”占比刚刚过半。 The rest came mainly from an online store(which sells“entertainment-related merchandise”),a nascent mobile-gaming arm,an e-book business and advertisements;iQiyi operates a“freemium”model which allows stingier users to stream some content free of charge provided they agree to watch ads.

Covid-19has many faces 新冠病毒的“万千”面孔 Why does the virus have such varied manifestations? 新冠病毒为何有着如此千变万化的临床症状? According to England’s National Health Service the signs that someone has contracted the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2are a high temperature or a new,continuous cough.This is certainly true for a majority of patients, but it is not so for a sizeable minority. 根据英国国民医疗服务体系的说法,当一个人感染新冠病毒时,他会表现出高烧或持续咳嗽的症状。对于大多数患者来说,这种说法确实没错,但对于相当数量的少数患者来说,情况却并非如此。 Papers published in recent weeks present the new virus as having many faces.This is in stark contrast to the way in which influenza,another primarily respiratory disease,behaves—and it makes SARS-CoV-2all the more dangerous.It also raises the question of why this virus’s symptoms are so protean. 据最近几周发表的论文显示,这种新病毒有着许多面孔。它的这一特性与流感(另一种常见的呼吸道疾病)形成了鲜明的对比,同时也使新冠病毒更具危害性。由此,人们提出了一个疑问,新冠病毒为何有着如此千变万化的临床症状。 For decades,influenza has been referred to as“an unvarying disease caused by a varying virus”because of its tendency to mutate every year and yet still cause the same symptoms of rapid-onset fever,malaise, headaches and coughing.

2019年考研英语真题:《英语二》翻译 My dream My dream has always been to work somewhere in an area between fashion and publishing. Two years before graduating from secondary school, I took a sewing and design course thinking that I would move on to a fashion design course. However, during that course I realised that I was not good enough in this area to compete with other creative personalities in the future, so I decided that it was not the right path for me. Before applying for university I told everyone that I would study journalism, because writing was, and still is, one of my favourite activities. But, to be absolutely honest, I said it, because I thought that fashion and me together was just a dream - I knew that no one, apart from myself, could imagine me in the fashion industry at all!

2018考研英语:阅读经济学人文章(一) German politics 德国政治 Gone boy on the right 消失的极右领袖 How an anti-foreigner, anti-establishment group ischanging German politics 一个反移民、反伊斯兰化组织如何改变德国政治 Bachmann: only joking, honest 巴赫曼:真的只是玩笑罢了 THE march on January 19th in Dresden by Pegida, or “Patriotic Europeans against theIslamisation of the Occident”, would have been its 13th. But it was cancelled because the policehad “concrete”information of plans to assassinate its organiser, Lutz Bachmann. On January21st Mr Bachmann was exposed in German tabloids for posing as Hitler on his Facebook page.He called it a joke, but later resigned his position. Pegida plans to resume its marches nextweek. 1月19日,在德累斯顿爆发了一场由Pegida(或者称作“爱国欧洲人反对西方的伊斯兰化”)发起的游行。本来这次游行应该在13号举行,但是由于警方获知了刺杀该运动领袖卢茨巴赫曼行动的“详细”信息而被取消。1月21日,巴赫曼因为在“脸书”(Facebook)上传其模仿希特勒的照片而被德国小报争相报道。他声称这只是一个玩笑,但是随后他宣布辞职。Pegida计划下周恢复游行。 Among its followers, despite Mr Bachmann's antics, neo-Nazis are a small minority. The typicalmarcher is a middle-aged, middle-class Saxon man who, says Hans V orl?nder at the TechnicalUniversity of Dresden, is alienated from politics and the liberal media, and yearns for ahomogenous fatherland. The marches may have “passed the peak”, adds Dieter Rucht at theBerlin Social Science Centre. Yet there will be political fallout. Nine-tenths of Pegida supportersback the Alternative for Germany (AfD), founded only in 2013 and represented in three easternstate parliaments. 在该运动众多的追随者中,除了巴赫曼这种滑稽行为的人,新纳粹仍是少数。据来自德尔德累斯顿技术大学的汉斯?福尔兰德尔讲,其中有一位的游行示威者是较为典型,他是一个来自于萨克森州的中年中产阶级男性,他对政治和自由媒体漠不关心,却呼唤一个同文同种的父国。柏林社会科学研究中心的Dieter Rucht说到,这支游行队伍可能已经“越过底线”。也许会带来某些政治后果。Pegida运动中有十分之九的支持者拥护德国新选项党(AfD),该党于2013年刚刚成立,享有东部三个州的议会席位。

2019考研英语热点作文十篇范文集锦

2019考研英语热点作文十篇范文集锦 赞同新建一所学校吗 It has recently been announced that a new high school may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details in your answer. I oppose having a new high school built in my neighborhood. Although I know there’s a real need for a new facility, I have to say that I don’t want one built so close to me. I think it would cause a lot of problems. First of all, there are very few teenagers in this neighborhood, or in our suburban subdivision, for that matter. Most of the residents here are either retired or are just starting out with young children. This means that the kids coming to the new high school wouldn’t be walking. They would come on buses or would be driving to the school. Either way, this would mean a lot more traffic on our streets. In addition to the traffic on school days, there also would be traffic whenever there was a sporting event, such as a basketball or football game, or activities at the school. Would there be enough parking in the school lot for everyone attending those events? Probably not. Consequently, those extra cars would end up our neighborhood. My neighbors and I would also be upset about the loss of the park, which is the site that’s been selected for the high school. Mothers with young children gather there every morning for their kids to play together. People my age like to take a walk after dinner. On weekends, that park is a place for picnic and relaxation. We’d be sorry to lose our neighborhood park. I also have some concerns about all those young people being in our neighborhood. Would there be problems with drugs or fights? Could the school district guarantee us that security would be a priority? These are concerns that I don't think can be addressed sufficiently for me to support a new high school in my neighborhood.
