In October 1838, I happened to read for amusement Malthus on Population, and being well prepared to appreciate the struggle for existence which everywhere goes on, from long continued observation of the habits of animals and plants, it at once struck me that, under these circumstances, favorable variations would tend to be preserved, and unfavourable ones to be destroyed.

答案

1838年10月，我随便读了《马尔萨散人口论》，很欣赏书的到处都有的生存竞争，经过对动物和植物生存习性的长期观察，我忽然想到这种环境下，有利于生存的变化被保留了，而不利于生存变化被消除了。

听力原文：M: Sarah, you work in the admissions office, don't you？

W: Yes, I'm... I've been here ten years as an assistant director.

M: Really？ What does that involve？

W: Well, I'm in charge of all the admissions of postgraduate students in the university.

M: Only postgraduates？

W: Yes, postgraduates only. I've nothing at all to do with undergraduates.

M: Do you find that you get particular...sort of...different national groups？ I mean, do you get large numbers from Latin America or...

W: Yes. Well, of all the students enrolled last year, nearly half were from overseas. They were from African countries, the Far East, the Middle East, and Latin America.

M: Em. But have you been doing just that for the last 10 years, or, have you done other things？

W: Well, I've been doing the same job. Er, before that, I was secretary of the medical school at Birmingham, and further back, I worked in the local government.

M: Oh, I see.

W: So I've done different types of things.

M: Yes, indeed. How do you imagine your job might develop in the future？ Can you imagine shifting into a different kind of responsibility or doing something...？

W: Oh, yeah, from October 1, I'll be doing an entirely different job. There's going to be more committee work. I mean, more policy work, and less dealing with students, unfortunately—I'll miss my contact with students.

听力原文： Today I'd like to mention an interesting television program that will be shown on October 10th. It's about the brain. It's a new public television show produced in New York City. The program will investigate how the brain functioned and new functions. Some interesting topics that will be discussed are dreaming, memory, and depression. These topics will be illustrated by using computer imitations of the brain to make explanation easy to follow. The show is not for children. But don't worry. It's not intended for scientists either. I think the program will be very helpful with the work we're doing in class on the brain. I hope you'll watch it. Remember it's on October 10th.

B．A scientist.

听力原文：M: So, Rebecca, what did you do for spring break？

W: I went to southern California. I was in Los Angeles and San Diego. Oh, and I stopped in San Juan Capistrano. That's south of Los Angeles and north of San Diego. I happened to be there just about the time the swallows returned.

M: Oh, I've heard about that they always return on the same day, don't they？

W: That's right, on March 19th. And they always fly away on the same day, October 23rd. In the meantime, they migrate over 7,000 miles to get to their winter homes.

M: Seven thousand miles, imagine! And always coming back on the same day!

W: Yes, except for one year, a long time ago, they were delayed for a day by a storm at sea.

M: So, what's the town of San Juan Capistrano like？

W: Oh, it's a pleasant little town. Once there was a famous mission church there.

M: Once？ What happened to it？

W: It was destroyed by an earthquake almost two hundred years ago. But there is an old adobe church that survived. The swallows build their nests in the walls and towers of that church.

M: You sure were lucky to be there on the one day of the year when the swallows return.

W: Well, I wasn't there exactly on that day. I got to town a couple of days later, but I did see the parade celebrating the swallows return.

M: They have a parade？ The people there must really like those swallows.

W: Sure, they bring lots of tourists to town, and besides, the swallows eat insects, including mosquitoes!

W: Good morning, can I help you？

M: Yes, I'd like to know something about the weather in this city in autumn.

W: Well, in September and October you can expect sunny days and not so much rain, but the evenings tend to be cool.

M: I see. I wonder if you could tell me something about the evening entertainment？

W: Yes, there are several cinemas, stage shows in the summer, night clubs and discos, and of course plenty of pubs and restaurants.

M: Thank you. Could you tell me a bit more about the stage shows？

W: Well, they're mostly variety shows for British summer visitors—I don't think they're really very suitable for foreign visitors.

M: Ok. How about the restaurants？

W: There are Italian, Indian, Chinese, Middle Eastern, Greek restaurants—there's even a Swiss restaurant, believe it or not!

M: Are there any typical English restaurants？

W: Oh yea, plenty. You can play tennis, go sailing, play squash, play golf—you can even learn to windsurf.

Robotic Surgery

Stuart Forbes celebrated his 60th birthday on April 11. A week later, he was diagnosed with prostate (前列腺) cancer. "It was quite a month," says Forbes, a blunt Vietnam veteran who runs a consulting firm outside Boston. When biopsies confirmed he had an aggressive form. of the disease, Forbes started looking for a surgeon. The first recommended a traditional radical prostatectomy (前列腺切除术), which would require an eight-to-10 inch incision and at 1east two days in the hospital Forbes was also warned that he would likely lose almost all the nerves on the left side of the prostate, which could permanently affect his sexual function. "I thought, 'I need to really look at all my options' ," says Forbes. He considered high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation (切除), a relatively new technology that's been used in Europe. But it's expensive and would require transatlantic trips. He looked into various forms of radiation, as well as proton-beam therapy. Then, in June, his girlfriend took him to a symposium on robotic surgery. "I saw the machine and how it worked," remembers Forbes. "It was just incredible. I said, 'That's it'."

In August, Dr. Ashutosh Tewari, director of robotic prostatectomy at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Well Cornell, removed Forbes's walnut-size prostate and lymph nodes and reattached his bladder to his urethra (尿道)without once putting his hands inside the patient. Using Intuitive Surgical's da Vinci robotic system and operating through five tiny incisions, Tewari conducted the entire procedure from across the room. He sat at a console and turned two knobs to remotely manipulate tiny surgical instruments attached to adjustable robotic arms. Forbes was walking within hours of his surgery and was discharged the next day. He compares the discomfort from the largest incision (about two inches long, and the only one to require stitches) to a bad pimple. By midweek he was walking three miles daily. In 10 days he was back at work. After three weeks he was playing golf again; by late October he'd regained normal urinary, and most sexual function. "I'm about as excited as anyone can be about this procedure," he says.

Using robots to perform. surgery once seemed a futuristic fantasy. Not anymore. An estimated 36 600 robotic procedures will be performed this year-- from heart-bypass surgeries to kidney transplants to hysterectomies (子宫切除术). That's up nearly 50 percent from last year, and analysts predict the figure will nearly double in 2006 to more than 70 000 procedures. Since the da Vinci was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in July 2000 (the only robotic system to get the FDA nod), about 350 of the units have been purchased, including 30 in the last quarter alone, at about ＄1.3 million a piece. Surgeons who use the system have found that patients have less blood loss and pain, lower risk of complications, shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times than those who have open surgery.

The robotic system has already transformed the field of prostate surgery, for which it was approved in May 2001. That year it was used in less than 1 percent of all prostatectomies. This year more than 20 percent will be done with the robot. And that figure is expected to double next year. "It's becoming the standard of care for prostatectomies," says Dr. Santiago Horgan, director of minimally invasive and robotic surgery at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC).

The first major study to compare open and robotic prostatectomies was published in the British Journal of Urology in 2003 by Dr. Mani Menon, head of the Vattikuti Urology Institute at Detroit's Henry Ford Hospital. (The hospital has now done about 2 050 of the robotic procedures --more than any other in the nation. ) The study of 300 patients found that those who had open surgery lost five times as much blood, had four times the risk of complications and remained in the h
