珠穆朗玛峰
珠穆朗玛峰,简称珠峰,是喜马拉雅山脉中的主峰,海拔8848.86米,位于中华人民共和国与尼泊尔边界上,它的北坡在中国青藏高原境内,南坡在尼泊尔境内。
早在19世纪初,珠峰就成为世界登山家和科学家所向往的地方。然而直到1953年,才由新西兰人埃德蒙·希拉里和丹增·诺尔盖创下首次登顶的纪录。
解析教材
CLIMBING QOMOLANGMA:WORTH THE RISKS
Last year,hundreds of people spent good money on an experience that they knew would include crowds,discomfort and danger.Many would become sick,due to the extreme cold and low air pressure,and a few would even lose their lives.Yet,despite all this,by the end of the trip many were already planning to return(1).For these people,climbing Qomolangma is an experience like no other,making some feel weak and others,powerful.
攀登珠穆朗玛峰:值得冒险吗
去年,成百上千的人把大笔的钱花在一次他们明知道会包含拥挤、不适和危险的经历上。由于极端寒冷和低气压,许多人会生病,一些人甚至会失去他们的生命。然而,尽管如此,到旅行结束时,许多人早已经计划返回。对于这些人来说,攀登珠穆朗玛峰是一种与众不同的体验,能让一些人感到软弱,让另一些人感到强大。
【助读点拨】
(1)were planning to“正打算做……”,该句时态是过去进行时。
British mountain climber George Mallory wrote of climbing Qomolangma,“What we get from this adventure(2) is just sheer joy...We do not live to eat and make money.We eat and make money to be able to enjoy life.That is what life means and what life is for.” Sadly,Mallory would die on the mountain in 1924,although his body would not be found until many years later. It is still not known if he succeeded in reaching the top of Qomolangma before it took his life.(3)
英国登山家乔治·马洛里在谈到攀登珠穆朗玛峰时写道:“我们从这次冒险中得到的只是纯粹的快乐……我们活着不是为了吃饭和赚钱。我们吃饭和赚钱是为了享受生活。这就是生命的意义和目的所在。”遗憾的是,马洛里于1924年死在了山上,他的尸体直到许多年后才被找到。目前还不清楚他在丢掉性命之前是否成功登上了珠穆朗玛峰峰顶。
【助读点拨】
(2)what引导主语从句,并且在从句中作get的宾语。
(3)该句中第一个It是形式主语,if从句是真正的主语。
In 2011,words similar to those of Mallory were spoken by American mountain climber Alan Arnette,who climbed Qomolangma(4) in that year and was going to climb other high mountains around the world.“It brings into focus what's important to you.” He added,“There are a thousand reasons to turn around and only one to keep going.You really have to focus on the one reason that's most important and unique to you.It forces you to look deep inside yourself and figure out if you really have the physical,as well as mental,toughness to push when you want to stop.”
2011年,美国登山者艾伦·阿内特说了与马洛里说过的类似的话。那年,阿内特登上了珠穆朗玛峰,并打算登上世界各地的其他高山。“登山会让你关注对你来说重要的事情。”他补充道,“原路返回的理由成千上万,而继续前行的理由只有一个。你必须专注于一个对你来说最重要也最独特的理由。它迫使你审视自己的内心深处,弄清楚当你想停下来的时候,你是否真的有体力、脑力以及毅力来推动你前进。”
【助读点拨】
(4)who引导非限制性定语从句,修饰前面的Alan Arnette。
With the majority of attempts to climb Qomolangma resulting either in total success or failure(5),is there also a scientific reason behind this risk-taking Recent studies indicate that risk-taking may be part of human nature,with some of us more likely to take risks than others.Psychologist Frank Farley has spent years studying people who jump out of planes and drive fast cars,as well as those who climb Qomolangma.He refers to the personalities of these people as “Type T”,with the “T” standing for “thrill”.
大多数攀登珠穆朗玛峰的尝试结果是要么完全成功,要么彻底失败,那么在这种冒险行为背后是否也有科学原因呢 最近的研究表明冒险也许是人类天性的一部分,我们中的一些人比其他人更有可能去冒险。心理学家弗兰克·法利多年来一直在研究那些高空跳伞、飙车和攀登珠穆朗玛峰的人。他把这些人的性格称为“T型”——“T”代表“刺激”。
【助读点拨】
(5)此处为with的复合结构,宾语是the majority of attempts to climb Qomolangma,resulting either in total success or failure是补语。
Speaking to the LA Times about the “Type T” personalities,Farley said,“They'll say,‘I'm not taking risks,I'm an expert...’ They don't want to die and they don't expect to die.”
Research also suggests that our desire to seek risks can be connected to how much we expect to benefit from the result(6).
With this in mind,are the benefits of climbing Qomolangma worth the risks It's totally up to you.
法利在接受《洛杉矶时报》关于“T型”人格的采访时说:“他们会说,‘我不是在冒险,我是专家……’他们不想死,也没想到会死。”
研究还表明,我们对冒险的渴望与我们期待从中获得多少益处有关。
了解了这些之后,(你认为)攀登珠穆朗玛峰的好处值得(让你去)冒险吗 这完全取决于你自己。
