Comparisons were drawn between the development of television in the 20th century and the diffusion of printing in the 15th and 16th centuries. Yet much had happened 21 As was discussed before, it was not 22 the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic 23, following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the 24 of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution 25 up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading 26 through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures 27 the 20th-century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in 28 . It is important to do so.

It is generally recognized, 29, that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century, 30 by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process. 31 its impact on the media was not immediately 32. As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became "personal" too, as well as 33 , with display becoming sharper and storage 34 increasing. They were thought of, like people, 35 generations, with the distance between generations much 36 .

It was within the computer age that the term "information society" began to be widely used to describe the 37 within which we now live. The communications revolution has 38 both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been 39 views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. "Benefits" have been weighed 40 "harmful" outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.

现代人们所面临的生活压力很大，如果一个人他没有在30岁以前有一个好的工作，一个好的合作伙伴，一部汽车，一座大房子，那么这个人与其他成功的人相比就是失败的

Modern people faced life pressure very heavy, if a person he did not have one kind job before 30 years old, a good cooperative partner, an automobile, a large house, then compared with other successful persons this person fails

失败的人很痛苦，而成功的人可能也不快乐。

The failed person is very in pain, and the successful person may be unhappy.

失败对人都是痛苦的事，但失败也常常是珍贵的。大多数孩子在发现他们的高等数学不及格时，他们会感到痛苦，但是实际上他们从失败中却更好地了解自己。他们认识到自己不适合成为工程师或物理学家，认识到他们不会擅长于财会工作或与统计有关的工作。因此，如果孩子门从失败中得出正确的结论的话，失败也有助于孩子们过上更为幸福的生活。

Failures are all the pain in the neck to people, but it is often precious to fail. Most children, while finding that their higher mathematics fails, they will feel agony, but they understand oneself from failing better in fact. They realize they are unsuitable to become the engineer or the physicist, realize that they will not be good at financial accounting or the work related to counting . So, if child\'s door draws correct conclusion from failing, failing helps the children to live happier life either.

在当今竞争激烈的职场上，交流能力往往决定就业还是失业，在寻找优秀的科研人员时，机构 和公司看重专业证明（Science Credentials）以外的技能。最成功的科学家不仅谙熟学科，而且 懂得管理人群，管理技能对于刚起步的小公司尤其重要，因为公司的存亡可能取决于一个产品的成功与否。公司越小，就越需要你成为多面手。假如你是个出色的化学家，但是沟通能力一塌糊涂，公司就得完蛋。!

On with keen competition career nowadays, it is still the unemployment that communication skills often decide to obtain employment , while looking for outstanding scientific research personnel, the technical ability that the organization and company value the speciality beyond proving ( Science Credentials ). The most successful scientist is not only well versed in discipline but also

know how to manage crowds, the management skill is especially important to the little company that just started, because the survival or perish of the company may depend on the succeeding or not of a product . The smaller the company is, the more need you to become the many-sided person . If you are an outstanding chemist, but link up ability in a complete mess, the company must be finished.

有几件事你们应该清楚，第一，自我激励与减轻压力是直接相关的。第二，并非所有的压力都是负面的。第三，既然是我们给自己制造压力，我们就能够控制它。第四，我们有控制压力的行之有效的方法，如果我们不愿尽最大的努力减轻压力，增强动力，我们就回给自己及他人带来无限的痛苦，没有一蹴而就的成功，如果我们能够成功处理生活中的压力，我们才有可能获得自我激励。你的个人成长取决于努力，取决于你愿意把振奋和放松精神的方法付诸实践。

There are several things you should be clear , first, it is relevant directly to encourage and lighten the pressure oneself. Second, it is not that all pressures are negative. Third, since we make the pressure for oneself, we can control it . Fourth, we have effectual method to control the pressure, if we are unwilling to do one's best to lighten the pressure, strengthening motive force, we bring the limitless agony to oneself and others, without success of accomplishing in one move, if we can succeed in dealing with the pressure in life , we may just get oneself and encourage . Your personal growth depends on efforts, depend on you would like to put inspiring and relaxing the method of spirit into practice

从成年羊细胞克隆（clone）的羊不仅开辟了广阔的科学上的可能性，也带来了道德上的窘境，一个外表普通名叫多利（Dolly）的羊羔照片上周成为全球报纸杂志的头版，这是因为她惊人的出生：她是一位成年羊的一模一样的复制品，没有父亲。

尽管研究工作者们已经清楚表明他们认为改变他们的技术来克隆人是不道德的，但他们的示范还是提供了令人不安的前景：别人不一定会如此有所顾忌，克隆人意味着妇女原则上不用男人的帮助也能繁殖。

已经有好几个国家宣布禁止克隆人的研究。但是如果克隆人证明确实是可行的话，那将不可能阻止医生克隆人——如果不在这个国家就可能在那个国家。

克隆需要技术和耐心，但是所需要的设备则是生物实验室的普通之物，确实，有些研究人员已经宣布他们克隆了猴子，另外一些则在好几年前就知道如何利用相同的技术克隆母牛和兔子，因此可能不需要太多的投资就能建立一个研究中心来克隆病人。

76. 现在的年轻人心怀不切实际的抱负，追逐地位和财富，正在把自己弄得很痛苦。在最近的一个调查报告里，半数以上年轻人说：如果他们到30岁还没有一个长期的合作伙伴，银行里没有存款，没有一个高级的事业职位，没有一辆豪华车，没有家， 他们会感到好似失败了。显而易见，这是治疗痛苦的妙方。但是不可避免地，只有少数人会实现这些目标，而大多数人觉得自己失败了。更何况，即使表面上看似赢家的人也身处感到好像是失败者的大风险之中。
