『陆』 关于2008奥运会英语阅读理解
一、
I am glad that the Beijing Olympic Organising Committee did not pick some cutesy animal or mascot (like a Panda) for the 2008 games. Yes, the Olympic games are suppose to be fun but its also a serious sporting event, not a carnival. At first glance, the logo looks like a simply-drawn running man but a closer look reveals its hidden calligraphy (it sort of looks like the 'jing' or city character written in Chinese). Plus its shape (like a stone) has an ancient quality to it. Overall, a nice logo in my humble opinion.
Yes, I like it very much. I also think that it looks like a personal stamp that Chinese artists use to imprint (similar as signing by the artists from the West) on their paintings. As others have stated. It combines several things into one simple yet complex symbol. It's simple that a child can easily draw this, whether he/she knows Chinese character or not. It's complex (a running man which represents an athlete, red colour and stone represents Chinese culture, it also shaped as a personal stamp, and the Chinese character "Jing"=”city”, is "Beijing", or in ancient time, this "city" character has a "capital" sense, as “Jing” rather just any city) and because it's kind of having a mini-story built-in, which alts will find it interesting to explain to their children or tell them as a short story.
Genius!!!

No one delivers spectacle these days like Zhang Yimou. The director's film and opera careers have clearly trained him well in dealing with massive ensembles of costumed performers, resulting in a show the sheer scale and beauty of which the world may never see again.
But what a travesty to have such a pageant undermined by bizarre editing and inane commentators! Why not let Zhang into the control booth to oversee the camera angles, instead of letting the NBC amateurs keep panning up to the digital scrim above the stadium and away from the 2008 dancers below?
Have we learned nothing from Busby Berkeley? Instead of showing closeups of the performers, give us the god's-eye-view of things, so we can appreciate the choreography -- the way it was intended to be seen by those in the stadium. The scripted commentary reveals that the network had access to dress rehearsals, so what excuse do they have for not knowing which camera angles would best represent the show?
And Bob Costas? Must every cultural observation be followed by a witless remark? Take, for instance, the moment in which conversation turned to the dancers' subtle hand movements. Costas quips, "So you order a Big Mac and fries and they give it to you with conspicuous elegance?" Thank you, Bob, for undermining millennia of culture by reminding us of what America contributes to the international equation.
This was China's moment -- bravo! Here's hoping someone proces a proper documentary of the event, with better footage and less chatter.

『捌』 08年考研英语阅读理解第三篇翻译
08年考研英语阅读理解第三篇翻译：
在世纪60年代早期，Wilt Chamberlain是美国国家篮球协会中仅有的身高超过7英尺的三个人之一。可是如果他参加了上个赛季的话，他就变成了42分之一了。这些年来在较大的职业体育运动中的运动员的身体状况发生了很大的改变，而他们的经理人也更愿意调整队员的运动服来适应队员们更大，更高的身材。
虽然体育界的这种趋势可能蒙蔽了一个没有被承认的现实：美国人基本上停止生长了。虽然现在人们比140年前高了2英寸，特别是那些出生在已移民美国很多代的那些人，但是明显的，在二十世纪60年代早期，已经到达了他们的身高的极限。他们已经不可能再长得更高了。“在这个基因和环境的条件下，现在整体的人们已经长到我们能够达到的范围了，”Wright州大学的人类学家William Cameron Chumlea说道。拿NBA球员来说，他们身高的增加主要由于从世界各地招募到了球员。
身高的增长一般在20岁以后就停止了，而发育是需要能量和营养的，其中的蛋白质用来供给组织的生长。在20世纪初，营养不良和儿童疾病妨碍了整体的发育。但是当饮食和健康的促进，儿童和青少年平均每20年都增长了大概1.5英寸，这就是长高的趋势。根据疾病防治中心，从1960年开始，人们的平均身高，男性5英尺9英寸，女性5英尺4英寸，就没有怎么改变了。
总的说来，避免太高的身高是有很多优点的。在生产时，较大的婴儿通过产道是有更多的问题的。而且，就算人类已经直立行走已经几百万年了，我们的脚和背部继续对抗着巨大的压力，这些压力来源于双足直立的姿势和巨大的肢体。“有一些限制是个体器官的基因结构导致的。”西北大学的人类学家William Leonard说道。
基因的最大化可以改变，但是不要期待它会马上就能发生。Mass州的Natick的军队研究中心的高级人类学家Claire C. Gordon确信百分之九十的入伍新兵不需要更换新的制服和工作站。她说，不像那些篮球制服，军队的制服长度很长时间都没有改变了。如果你需要在不远的将来预测人类的身高而去设计一款新的设备，Gordon说基本上，“你都能够使用现在的数据并且觉得非常地自信。”

In the early 1960s Wilt Chamberlain was one of only three players in the National Basketball Association (NBA) listed at over seven feet. If he had played last season, however, he would have been one of 42. The bodies playing major professional sports have changed dramatically over the years, and managers have been more than willing to adjust team uniforms to fit the growing numbers of bigger, longer frames.
The trend in sports, though, may be obscuring an unrecognized reality: Americans have generally stopped growing. Though typically about two inches taller now than 140 years ago, today’s people – especially those born to families who have lived in the U.S. for many generations – apparently reached their limit in the early 1960s. And they aren’t likely to get any taller. “In the general population today, at this genetic, environmental level, we’ve pretty much gone as far as we can go,” says anthropologist William Cameron Chumlea of Wright State University. In the case of NBA players, their increase in height appears to result from the increasingly common practice of recruiting players from all over the world.
Growth, which rarely continues beyond the age of 20, demands calories and nutrients – notably, protein – to feed expanding tissues. At the start of the 20th century, under-nutrition and childhood infections got in the way. But as diet and health improved, children and adolescents have, on average, increased in height by about an inch and a half every 20 years, a pattern known as the secular trend in height. Yet according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, average height – 5′9″ for men, 5′4″ for women – hasn’t really changed since 1960.
Genetically speaking, there are advantages to avoiding substantial height. During childbirth, larger babies have more difficulty passing through the birth canal. Moreover, even though humans have been upright for millions of years, our feet and back continue to struggle with bipedal posture and cannot easily withstand repeated strain imposed by oversize limbs. “There are some real constraints that are set by the genetic architecture of the indivial organism,” says anthropologist William Leonard of Northwestern University.
Genetic maximums can change, but don’t expect this to happen soon. Claire C. Gordon, senior anthropologist at the Army Research Center in Natick, Mass., ensures that 90 percent of the uniforms and workstations fit recruits without alteration. She says that, unlike those for basketball, the length of military uniforms has not changed for some time. And if you need to predict human height in the near future to design a piece of equipment, Gordon says that by and large, “you could use today’s data and feel fairly confident.”
