For a quantum double well system interacting with a mesoscopic bath,it is shown that a single particle in the bath is su?cient to substantially reduce tunneling between the two wells.This is demonstrated by considering an ammonia molecule in the center of a ring;in addition to halving the maser line frequency,there is an increase in intensity by four orders of magnitude.The tunneling varies non-monotonically with the number N of electrons in the ring,re?ecting the changing elec-tronic correlations.Although the tunneling is reduced for small N ,it turns around and grows to its free value for large N.This is shown to not violate Anderson’s orthogonality theorem.Experimental implementations are discussed.

The importance of decoherence for the transition from quantum to classical behavior is well known.Var-ious authors have shown that when a system is coupled to a bath consisting of an in?nite number of degrees of freedom,irreversibility—and therefore,decoherence—is a consequence;this has given rise to the ?eld of dis-sipative quantum mechanics[1,2].Studies in this ?eld have been further stimulated by the experimental real-isation of quantum coherent mesoscopic systems that are small on the macroscopic scale but large on the mi-croscopic,atomic scale[3].Control of coupling to the environment is also critical to the success of quantum computing,a fast-expanding area of research[4].

In this paper we consider a microscopic quantum system that is predominantly coupled to a mesoscopic bath.In dissipative quantum mechanics,it is gener-ally presumed that the quantum system is coupled to a macroscopic bath with an essentially in?nite number of degrees of freedom.The general belief is that “more is worse”:the greater the coupling to the environment,the more quantum e?ects are destroyed.Here we show that,for a mesoscopic bath,it is possible for the tun-neling between the two wells of a quantum system in a double well potential to be highly non-monotonic as a function of the number of particles in the bath.There is a substantial reduction in the tunneling with a sin-gle particle.As the number of particles is increased,the e?ect of the mesoscopic bath at ?rst sharply de-creases,then grows,and ?nally decreases again,essen-tially vanishing for su?ciently large particle number.We will show that the last assertion does not contradict Anderson’s orthogonality catastrophe [5].

We demonstrate these results by considering an often studied double well system,the ammonia molecule[6],at the center of a mesoscopic ring.The mesoscopic bath is taken to be a one dimensional ring;qualita-tively similar results would be obtained for a multi-channel ring or for a singly connected geometry such as a disk.If the ring has just one electron,the tunneling

between the two con?gurations for the ammonia dipole is reduced by as much as 50%,reducing the frequency of the transition between the symmetric and antisym-metric con?gurations by the same amount.In addi-tion,the coupling to the electron in the ring increases the dipole moment approximately hundredfold.This dramatically enhances the intensity of the spectral line for the transition,by ~104.As the number of elec-trons on the ring is increased,the rich non-monotonic behaviour noted above unfolds.Possible experimental realizations are discussed towards the end of the paper.Parenthetically we note that it is known the cou-pling of a molecule to light is enhanced by proximity to a metallic nanoparticle,an e?ect that is the ba-sis of sensitive optical detection of molecules [7].The physical origin of this essentially classical e?ect is ?eld enhancement due to the coupling of optical radiation to metallic plasmons.In contrast the enhancement in the spectral line identi?ed here is quantum in origin.To establish these results,?rst consider an ammonia molecule in the center of a ring of radius R.Assume for the moment that the dipole moment of the molecule is in the plane of the ring,and that there is only one elec-tron in the ring.In the absence of the ring,for every orientation of the hydrogen plane,there are two pos-sible positions of the nitrogen atom.The ground and ?rst excited states are the symmetric and antisymmet-ric combinations of these.Transitions between the two states are used in the ammonia maser.

In the presence of the ring,the two possible posi-tions of the nitrogen atom,which have opposite dipole moments,perturb the electron in the ring,changing its ground state to two di?erent ground states.The possible states of the combined system of the ammonia molecule and the electron in the ring are then

|↑ ?|E n ,

|↓ ?|E ′

n

(1)

where |E n is the n th electronic eigenstate when the

ammonia electric dipole moment is in one orienta-

2 tion,and|E′n is the corresponding electronic eigen-

state when the dipole moment is in the other orien-

tation.The fact that|E n and|E′n are di?erent—

partially orthogonal—states reduces the tunneling be-

tween the two dipole orientations,since the tunneling

part of the Hamiltonian connects|↑ ?|ψ to|↓ ?|ψ

with the same|ψ for both states.Thus the splitting

between the symmetric and antisymmetric state is re-

duced.The di?erent orientations of the hydrogen tri-

angle do not a?ect this calculation,since there is no

tunneling between the di?erent orientations,only be-

tween the two di?erent positions of the nitrogen atom

for a?xed orientation of the hydrogen triangle.

The potential of the electron in the ring due to the

ammonia dipole moment is V(θ)=ep cosθ/(4π?0R2),

causing matrix elements between the unperturbed elec-

tronic eigenstates.The unperturbed eigenstates of the

electron areψ0=1/

√π

for n=0,with energiesˉh2n2/(2mR2).We neglect the

sin(nθ)wavefunctions,since they are not mixed into

the ground state by V(θ).The Hamiltonian for the

electron in the presence of the ammonia molecule is

H ij=ˉh2

2?1)ρ(δi,1δj,2+δi,2δj,1)]

(2)

whereρ=mep/(4π?0ˉh2)is the dimensionless pertur-bation https://www.sodocs.net/doc/023006532.html,ingρ≈0.6137D for ammonia,H can be truncated to a n×n matrix,and its eigenvalues obtained numerically.Changing n from4to5changes the?rst four eigenvalues by less than1%,so we use a 4×4truncation.The eigenvalues are

[E0,E1,E2,E3]=

ˉh2

2mR2

.(4)

Since the tunneling Hamiltonian does not act on the electron in the ring,the tunneling matrix element be-tween|↑ ?|E n and|↓ ?|E′m is t E′m|E n ,which can be evaluated numerically.

If t is su?ciently small,the degenerate ground state in the8×8

Hamiltonian is split by2t E0|E′0 . Numerically,with Eq.(4),i.e.a ring of radius10 nm,the splitting between the lowest two eigenvalues is0.122ˉh2/(2m),to a good approximation equal to 2|t| E0|E′0 .The frequency of the radiation for tran-sition between these two states is thus less than for the free ammonia molecule by a factor of approxi-mately0.5.If the temperature is large compared to (E1?E0),one has to consider transitions between ex-cited states as well.For a10nm ring,the temperature T has to be much less than8K to ignore the excited states.For R<30nm and T<<8K,to a good ap-proximation the Hamiltonian can thus be truncated to a symmetric2×2matrix,for which the ground and ?rst excited states are the symmetric and antisymmet-ric combinations|I ,|II =1

2

[|↑;E0 ±|↓;E′0 ].In order to excite transitions between|I and|II ,one has to apply a time dependent electric?eld,which couples to the dipole moment of the states.With P=P amm+P el,one can verify that I|P|II = ↑|P amm|↑ + E0|P el|E0 .Since the electronic ground state has a dipole moment opposed to the direction of the ammonia moment,this changes the intensity of the spectral line.Numerically,one obtains

I|P|II =0.325e?A?0.65eR.(5) For R=10nm, I|P|II is changed by a factor of -200,increasing the line intensity by4×104.(Recall that R<30nm for the2×2truncation to be valid.) We now reexamine the approximations made so far. For a general orientation of the ammonia molecule, only the component of its dipole moment in the plane of the ring couples to the electron in the ring,reduc-ing the e?ects discussed above.For randomly oriented molecules,a broad band will be seen.Also,if the molecule is not in the center of the ring,the symme-try between the two orientations of its dipole moment is destroyed:the dipole moment prefers to align itself towards the closest point on the ring.

We now consider the e?ect of increasing the number of electrons in the ring.First,we consider the two electron case in detail.Ifθ1and?θ2are the angular positions of the electrons with respect to the dipole moment of the ammonia,changing toθ+=(θ1+θ2)/2 andθ?=(θ1?θ2),the electronic Hamiltonian is

H=

ˉh2

R2

cosθ+cos(

.

(6) In the absence of the ammonia dipole,the Hamiltonian is separable.Since the kinetic energy is small compared to the potential energy,θ?≈π.Expandingθ?asπ?

3

2δ,Hδ≈(ˉh2/mR2)?2/?2δ+e2δ2/4R,so that

δ2 =ˉh(mRe2)?1/2.(7) The wavefunction is uniform in theθ+coordinate.

With the dipole,the Hamiltonian of Eq.(6)is no longer separable,so we perform an approximate anal-

ysis.From classical arguments it is clear that δ(θ+)

is greatest whenθ+=0,for which case by mini-mizing?2(ep/R2)sinδ+e2/(2R cosδ)we?nd that

δ2 ≈(4p/eR)2.By comparing with Eq.(7),we see that the change in the ground state wavefunction is

negligible for theδcoordinate.For theθ+coordinate,

withδset at its optimal value(δ=4p/eR forθ+=0,δ=0forθ+=±π/2),there is an e?ective potential energy?(4p2/R3)cos2θ+.Since this is negligible com-pared toˉh2/2mR2,the kinetic energy still forces the wavefunction to be essentially uniform inθ+.Thus the overlap in the ground state wavefunction of the two electrons with and without the ammonia dipole poten-tial is almost unity,as is therefore the overlap E′0|E0 . If more electrons are added to the ring, E′0|E0 decreases:for N electrons at low density the elec-tronic state is essentially a Wigner crystal and the dipole potential shifts each electron from its lattice position by an angle O(p/eRN),whereas the angular spread of each electron wavefunction is O(1/N).Thus E0′|E0 =[1?O(p/eR)2]N,which tends to zero for large N.But in reality,as N increases,the Wigner crystal melts[8].The overlap E′0|E0 then reverses its N dependence,approaching unity as N→∞.Phys-ically this is because in the liquid state the electrons e?ciently screen the dipole potential so that it does not signi?cantly perturb the electronic ground state. To make this plausible,let us consider the more tractable problem of N electrons in a spherical shell of inner radius R,perturbed by a point charge q placed at the center of the shell.Within the Thomas Fermi approximation,the point charge potential is screened within a distance~d s from R.If d s<

Alternatively,we could consider N electrons in a spherical box of radius R perturbed by a point charge?e placed at the centre of the box.Ander-

son’s bound on the overlap can also be expressed as exp ?k2σtot ln N/(12π3) whereσtot is the cross sec-tion for an electron at the Fermi surface to scatter from

the screened potential of the perturbing point charge. If we take the screened potential to be of the Thomas-Fermi form and use the Born approximation,both justi?ed in the high density limit k f a B?1(where a B=4π?0ˉh2/me2is the Bohr radius),we?nd

E′0|E0 ≤exp ?19π 1/31a B ln N (8)

which tends to1as N→∞if R is held constant. Again,this does not con?ict with Anderson’s result[5]. The case of a strictly one-dimensional ring deserves special consideration.For spinless electrons with short-range interactions at high density,the problem can be analysed by bosonisation,whereby the electron liq-uid is described in terms of non-interacting bosonic density-wave oscillators[9].In this description,the smooth ammonia dipole potential perturbs just one bosonic oscillator via a linear coupling.Thus,in con-trast to the case of a sharp Kane-Fisher impurity[10], the problem remains trivially soluble.A simple cal-culation reveals that the overlap of the electronic ground states corresponding to the two con?gurations of the ammonia molecule is exp[?4ρ2g/v2N2],essen-tially perfect as N→∞.Here v and g are Luttinger liquid interaction parameters[9].Physically,the rea-son for this dependence is that the single oscillator to which the ammonia molecule couples becomes sti?er as N(and therefore the Fermi velocity)increases.

In three dimensions,the single particle level spacing scales as1/N1/3.Thus as N continues to grow,the bath will ultimately cross over to a macroscopic regime when the single particle level spacing falls well below the tunneling scale t.In this regime,the ammonia molecule can couple to an enormous number of possi-ble particle-hole excitations of the bath,and its tunnel-ing behaviour should therefore be well-described in the conventional framework of the spin-boson model[2,11]. In contrast to the mesoscopic bath,the imperfect over-lap between the ground states of a macroscopic bath can renormalize the tunneling frequency of the two level system all the way down to zero,leading to a complete suppression of tunneling,or localization[2]. Also,there is damping for the macroscopic bath,but not the mesoscopic.Another distinction is the meso-scopic bath-induced ampli?cation of the dipole cou-pling of ammonia to external radiation.This has,to our knowledge,no counterpart in the physical realisa-tions of the spin-boson model studied so far.

We now brie?y consider possible experimental real-isations.Metallic rings are unsuitable because of the high density of electrons in metals:rings of the requi-site size would contain far too many electrons.Con-ventional semiconductor devices such as silicon MOS-FETs and GaAs MODFETs can have the required low electron density but su?er from the di?culty that the electron gas is buried deep inside the device below a dielectric layer of oxide or semiconductor.However it may be possible to circumvent this di?culty by fab-ricating devices in which the electron gas lies on the outer surface of the semiconductor and in which the vacuum plays the role of the dielectric layer.GaAs is unsuitable for such devices because of a high den-sity of surface traps,but Kane and co-workers have recently succeeded in passivating the 111 surface of silicon and making working devices of this type[12]. By suitably gating these devices,in principle,it should be possible to laterally con?ne the electrons to rings. Other systems in which the electron gas has low density and is not deeply buried include electrons deposited on liquid helium[13]and newer semiconductor structures that are grown by bottom-up techniques and that may be injected with electrons by photo-excitation of a dye with which the structures have been coated[14].In the former system too electrons could be shepherded into rings by suitable gating[15];in the latter,the electrons would be con?ned to nanoscale semiconductor particles that are typically spherical in shape.

Apart from fabricating the rings,the other experi-mental task is to position ammonia molecules in their vicinity.A simple extension of the calculation above shows that a free ammonia molecule placed at the cen-ter of a ring experiences a force that tends to de?ect it o?-center where the coupling to the ring is much weaker.However this should not be an insurmountable problem at least in the solid state systems mentioned above.For example,with silicon devices,the ammonia molecules could be deposited at random on the silicon surface,to which they would stick.Although ammonia sticks to a bare silicon surface by covalent bonding of the nitrogen atom[16]that renders dipolar oscillations impossible,on a hydrogen passivated Si surface such as used in the devices of Ref.[12]it is expected that ammonia would stick without such covalent bonding. In summary,we have shown that a quantum two level system coupled to a mesoscopic bath responds to the bath in an extremely non-monotonic manner as the number of particles in the bath is changed,and has a strong response even with one particle in the bath. Apart from its intrinsic interest,such an interaction could be relevant to a quantum computing architecture integrating mesoscopic solid state and?ying atomic or ionic qubits[17],a potential application deserving fur-ther exploration.As a prototype,we have considered an ammonia molecule in the center of a ring with a small number of electrons.We have discussed possible experimental techniques to make such devices with a single electron in a ring.The experimental signatures of the e?ects studied here are:(i)a shift in the am-monia spectral line due to the suppressed tunneling, (ii)a factor of104increase in the strength of the line due to the enhanced e?ective dipole moment and(iii) strong inhomogeneous broadening of the line due to variations in the rings and the couplings between the rings and ammonia molecules.A key role in our analy-sis is played by the sensitivity of the electronic ground state to external perturbation.It is desirable to deter-mine the dependence of this“wave function sti?ness”on N and N/R more rigorously,e.g.numerically.

从实践的角度探讨在日语教学中多媒体课件的应用

从实践的角度探讨在日语教学中多媒体课件的应用 在今天中国的许多大学,为适应现代化,信息化的要求,建立了设备完善的适应多媒体教学的教室。许多学科的研究者及现场教员也积极致力于多媒体软件的开发和利用。在大学日语专业的教学工作中,教科书、磁带、粉笔为主流的传统教学方式差不多悄然向先进的教学手段而进展。 一、多媒体课件和精品课程的进展现状 然而,目前在专业日语教学中能够利用的教学软件并不多见。比如在中国大学日语的专业、第二外語用教科书常见的有《新编日语》(上海外语教育出版社)、《中日交流标准日本語》(初级、中级)(人民教育出版社)、《新编基础日语(初級、高級)》(上海译文出版社)、《大学日本语》(四川大学出版社)、《初级日语》《中级日语》(北京大学出版社)、《新世纪大学日语》(外语教学与研究出版社)、《综合日语》(北京大学出版社)、《新编日语教程》(华东理工大学出版社)《新编初级(中级)日本语》(吉林教育出版社)、《新大学日本语》(大连理工大学出版社)、《新大学日语》(高等教育出版社)、《现代日本语》(上海外语教育出版社)、《基础日语》(复旦大学出版社)等等。配套教材以录音磁带、教学参考、习题集为主。只有《中日交流標準日本語(初級上)》、《初級日语》、《新编日语教程》等少数教科书配备了多媒体DVD视听教材。 然而这些试听教材,有的内容为日语普及读物,并不适合专业外语课堂教学。比如《新版中日交流标准日本语(初级上)》,有的尽管DVD视听教材中有丰富的动画画面和语音练习。然而,课堂操作则花费时刻长,不利于教师重点指导,更加适合学生的课余练习。比如北京大学的《初级日语》等。在这种情形下,许多大学的日语专业致力于教材的自主开发。 其中,有些大学的还推出精品课程,取得了专门大成绩。比如天津外国语学院的《新编日语》多媒体精品课程为2007年被评为“国家级精品课”。目前已被南开大学外国语学院、成都理工大学日语系等全国40余所大学推广使用。

Unit1 Americans believe no one stands still. If you are not moving ahead, you are falling behind. This attitude results in a nation of people committed to researching, experimenting and exploring. Time is one of the two elements that Americans save carefully, the other being labor. "We are slaves to nothing but the clock,” it has been said. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. We budget it, save it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; we also charge for it. It is a precious resource. Many people have a rather acute sense of the shortness of each lifetime. Once the sands have run out of a person’s hourglass, they cannot be replaced. We want every minute to count. A foreigner’s first impression of the U.S. is li kely to be that everyone is in a rush -- often under pressure. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going, restlessly seeking attention in a store, or elbowing others as they try to complete their shopping. Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace

Unit 1 1学习外语是我一生中最艰苦也是最有意义的经历之一。虽然时常遭遇挫折,但却非常有价值。 2我学外语的经历始于初中的第一堂英语课。老师很慈祥耐心,时常表扬学生。由于这种积极的教学方法,我踊跃回答各种问题,从不怕答错。两年中,我的成绩一直名列前茅。 3到了高中后,我渴望继续学习英语。然而,高中时的经历与以前大不相同。以前,老师对所有的学生都很耐心,而新老师则总是惩罚答错的学生。每当有谁回答错了,她就会用长教鞭指着我们,上下挥舞大喊:“错!错!错!”没有多久,我便不再渴望回答问题了。我不仅失去了回答问题的乐趣,而且根本就不想再用英语说半个字。 4好在这种情况没持续多久。到了大学,我了解到所有学生必须上英语课。与高中老师不。大学英语老师非常耐心和蔼,而且从来不带教鞭!不过情况却远不尽如人意。由于班大,每堂课能轮到我回答的问题寥寥无几。上了几周课后,我还发现许多同学的英语说得比我要好得多。我开始产生一种畏惧感。虽然原因与高中时不同,但我却又一次不敢开口了。看来我的英语水平要永远停步不前了。 5直到几年后我有机会参加远程英语课程,情况才有所改善。这种课程的媒介是一台电脑、一条电话线和一个调制解调器。我很快配齐了必要的设备并跟一个朋友学会了电脑操作技术,于是我每周用5到7天在网上的虚拟课堂里学习英语。 6网上学习并不比普通的课堂学习容易。它需要花许多的时间,需要学习者专心自律,以跟上课程进度。我尽力达到课程的最低要求,并按时完成作业。 7我随时随地都在学习。不管去哪里,我都随身携带一本袖珍字典和笔记本,笔记本上记着我遇到的生词。我学习中出过许多错,有时是令人尴尬的错误。有时我会因挫折而哭泣,有时甚至想放弃。但我从未因别的同学英语说得比我快而感到畏惧,因为在电脑屏幕上作出回答之前,我可以根据自己的需要花时间去琢磨自己的想法。突然有一天我发现自己什么都懂了,更重要的是,我说起英语来灵活自如。尽管我还是常常出错,还有很多东西要学,但我已尝到了刻苦学习的甜头。 8学习外语对我来说是非常艰辛的经历,但它又无比珍贵。它不仅使我懂得了艰苦努力的意义,而且让我了解了不同的文化,让我以一种全新的思维去看待事物。学习一门外语最令人兴奋的收获是我能与更多的人交流。与人交谈是我最喜欢的一项活动,新的语言使我能与陌生人交往,参与他们的谈话,并建立新的难以忘怀的友谊。由于我已能说英语,别人讲英语时我不再茫然不解了。我能够参与其中,并结交朋友。我能与人交流,并能够弥合我所说的语言和所处的文化与他们的语言和文化之间的鸿沟。 III. 1. rewarding 2. communicate 3. access 4. embarrassing 5. positive 6. commitment 7. virtual 8. benefits 9. minimum 10. opportunities IV. 1. up 2. into 3. from 4. with 5. to 6. up 7. of 8. in 9. for 10.with V. 1.G 2.B 3.E 4.I 5.H 6.K 7.M 8.O 9.F 10.C Sentence Structure VI. 1.

新大学日语简明教程课文翻译

新大学日语简明教程课文翻译 第21课 一、我的留学生活 我从去年12月开始学习日语。已经3个月了。每天大约学30个新单词。每天学15个左右的新汉字,但总记不住。假名已经基本记住了。 简单的会话还可以,但较难的还说不了。还不能用日语发表自己的意见。既不能很好地回答老师的提问,也看不懂日语的文章。短小、简单的信写得了,但长的信写不了。 来日本不久就迎来了新年。新年时,日本的少女们穿着美丽的和服,看上去就像新娘。非常冷的时候,还是有女孩子穿着裙子和袜子走在大街上。 我在日本的第一个新年过得很愉快,因此很开心。 现在学习忙,没什么时间玩,但周末常常运动,或骑车去公园玩。有时也邀朋友一起去。虽然我有国际驾照,但没钱,买不起车。没办法,需要的时候就向朋友借车。有几个朋友愿意借车给我。 二、一个房间变成三个 从前一直认为睡在褥子上的是日本人,美国人都睡床铺,可是听说近来纽约等大都市的年轻人不睡床铺,而是睡在褥子上,是不是突然讨厌起床铺了? 日本人自古以来就睡在褥子上,那自有它的原因。人们都说日本人的房子小,从前,很少有人在自己的房间,一家人住在一个小房间里是常有的是,今天仍然有人过着这样的生活。 在仅有的一个房间哩,如果要摆下全家人的床铺,就不能在那里吃饭了。这一点,褥子很方便。早晨,不需要褥子的时候,可以收起来。在没有了褥子的房间放上桌子,当作饭厅吃早饭。来客人的话,就在那里喝茶;孩子放学回到家里,那房间就成了书房。而后,傍晚又成为饭厅。然后收起桌子,铺上褥子,又成为了全家人睡觉的地方。 如果是床铺的话,除了睡觉的房间,还需要吃饭的房间和书房等,但如果使用褥子,一个房间就可以有各种用途。 据说从前,在纽约等大都市的大学学习的学生也租得起很大的房间。但现在房租太贵,租不起了。只能住更便宜、更小的房间。因此,似乎开始使用睡觉时作床,白天折小能成为椅子的、方便的褥子。

舌尖上的中国分集简介

舌尖上的中国分集简介 第一集自然的馈赠 本集导入作为一个美食家,食物的美妙味感固然值得玩味,但是食物是从哪里来的?毫无疑问,我们从大自然中获得所有的食物,在我们走进厨房,走向餐桌之前,先让我们回归自然,看看她给我们的最初的馈赠。本集将选取生活在中国境内截然不同的地理环境(如海洋,草原,山林,盆地,湖泊)中的具有代表性的个人、家庭和群落为故事主角,以及由于自然环境的巨大差异(如干旱,潮湿,酷热,严寒)所带来的截然不同的饮食习惯和生活方式为故事背景,展现大自然是以怎样不同的方式赋予中国人食物,我们又是如何与自然和谐相处,从而了解在世代相传的传统生活方式中,通过各种不同的途径获取食物的故事。 美食介绍 烤松茸油焖春笋雪菜冬笋豆腐汤 腊味飘香腌笃鲜排骨莲藕汤椒盐藕夹酸辣藕丁煎焖鱼头泡饼煎焗马鲛鱼酸菜鱼松鼠桂鱼侉炖鱼本集部分旁白中国拥有世界上最富戏剧性的自然景观,高原, 第一集: 自然的馈赠 山林,湖泊,海岸线。这种地理跨度有助于物种的形成和保存,任何一个国家都没有这样多潜在的食物原材料。为了得到这份自然的馈赠,人们采集,捡拾,挖掘,捕捞。穿越四季,本集将展现美味背后人和自然的故事。香格里拉,松树和栎树自然杂交林中,卓玛寻找着一种精灵般的食物——松茸。松茸保鲜期只有短短的两天,商人们以最快的速度对松茸进行精致的加工,这样一只松茸24小时之后就会出现在东京的市场中。松茸产地的凌晨3点,单珍卓玛和妈妈坐着爸爸开的摩托车出发。穿过村庄,母女俩要步行走进30公里之外的原始森林。雨让各种野生菌疯长,但每一个藏民都有识别松茸的慧眼。松茸出土后,

卓玛立刻用地上的松针把菌坑掩盖好,只有这样,菌丝才可以不被破坏,为了延续自然的馈赠,藏民们小心翼翼地遵守着山林的规矩。为期两个月的松茸季节,卓玛和妈妈挣到了5000元,这个收入是对她们辛苦付出的回报。 舌尖上的中国DVD 老包是浙江人,他的毛竹林里,长出过遂昌最大的一个冬笋。冬笋藏在土层的下面,从竹林的表面上看,什么也没有,老包只需要看一下竹梢的叶子颜色,就能知道笋的准确位置,这完全有赖于他丰富的经验。笋的保鲜从来都是个很大的麻烦,笋只是一个芽,是整个植物机体活动最旺盛的部分。聪明的老包保护冬笋的方法很简单,扒开松松的泥土,把笋重新埋起来,保湿,这样的埋藏方式就地利用自然,可以保鲜两周以上。在中国的四大菜系里,都能见到冬笋。厨师偏爱它,也是因为笋的材质单纯,极易吸收配搭食物的滋味。老包正用冬笋制作一道家常笋汤,腌笃鲜主角本来应该是春笋,但是老包却使用价格高出20倍的遂昌冬笋。因为在老包眼里,这些不过是自家毛竹林里的一个小菜而已。在云南大理北部山区,醒目的红色砂岩中间,散布着不少天然的盐井,这些盐成就了云南山里人特殊的美味。老黄和他的儿子在树江小溪边搭建一个炉灶,土灶每年冬天的工作就是熬盐。云龙县的冬季市场,老黄和儿子赶到集市上挑选制作火腿的猪肉,火腿的腌制在老屋的院子里开始。诺邓火腿的腌制过程很简单,老黄把多余的皮肉去除,加工成一个圆润的火腿,洒上白酒除菌,再把自制的诺盐均匀的抹上,不施锥针,只用揉、压,以免破坏纤维。即使用现代的标准来判断,诺邓井盐仍然是食盐中的极品,虽然在这个古老的产盐地,盐业生产已经停止,但我们仍然相信诺邓盐是自然赐给山里人的一个珍贵礼物。圣武和茂荣是兄弟俩,每年9月,他们都会来到湖北的嘉鱼县,来采挖一种自然的美味。这种植物生长在湖水下面的深深的淤泥之中,茂荣挖到的植物的根茎叫做莲藕,是一种湖泊中高产的蔬菜——藕。作为职业挖藕人,每年茂荣和圣武要只身出门7个月,采藕的季节,他们就从老家安徽赶到有藕的地方。较高的人工报酬使得圣武和茂荣愿意从事这个艰苦的工作。挖藕的人喜欢天气寒冷,这不是因为天冷好挖藕,而是天气冷买藕吃藕汤的人就多一些,藕的价格就会涨。整整一湖的莲藕还要采摘5个月的时间,在嘉鱼县的珍湖上,300个职业挖藕人,每天从日出延续到日落,在中国遍布淡水湖的大省,这样场面年年上演。今天当我们有权远离自然,享受美食的时候,最应该感谢的是这些通过劳动和智慧成就餐桌美味的人们。 第二集主食的故事 本集导入主食是餐桌上的主要食物,是人们所需能量的主要来源。从远古时代赖以充饥的自然谷物到如今人们餐桌上丰盛的、让人垂涎欲滴的美食,一个异彩纷呈、变化多端的主食世界呈现在你面前。本集着重描绘不同地域、不同民族、不同风貌的有关主食的故事,展现人们对主食的样貌、口感的追求,处理和加工主食的智慧,以及中国人对主食的深

习惯与礼仪 我是个漫画家,对旁人细微的动作、不起眼的举止等抱有好奇。所以,我在国外只要做错一点什么,立刻会比旁人更为敏锐地感觉到那个国家的人们对此作出的反应。 譬如我多次看到过,欧美人和中国人见到我们日本人吸溜吸溜地出声喝汤而面露厌恶之色。过去,日本人坐在塌塌米上,在一张低矮的食案上用餐,餐具离嘴较远。所以,养成了把碗端至嘴边吸食的习惯。喝羹匙里的东西也象吸似的,声声作响。这并非哪一方文化高或低,只是各国的习惯、礼仪不同而已。 日本人坐在椅子上围桌用餐是1960年之后的事情。当时,还没有礼仪规矩,甚至有人盘着腿吃饭。外国人看见此景大概会一脸厌恶吧。 韩国女性就座时,单腿翘起。我认为这种姿势很美,但习惯于双膝跪坐的日本女性大概不以为然,而韩国女性恐怕也不认为跪坐为好。 日本等多数亚洲国家,常有人习惯在路上蹲着。欧美人会联想起狗排便的姿势而一脸厌恶。 日本人常常把手放在小孩的头上说“好可爱啊!”,而大部分外国人会不愿意。 如果向回教国家的人们劝食猪肉和酒,或用左手握手、递东西,会不受欢迎的。当然,饭菜也用右手抓着吃。只有从公用大盘往自己的小盘里分食用的公勺是用左手拿。一旦搞错,用黏糊糊的右手去拿,

会遭人厌恶。 在欧美,对不受欢迎的客人不说“请脱下外套”,所以电视剧中的侦探哥隆波总是穿着外套。访问日本家庭时,要在门厅外脱掉外套后进屋。穿到屋里会不受欢迎的。 这些习惯只要了解就不会出问题,如果因为不知道而遭厌恶、憎恨,实在心里难受。 过去,我曾用色彩图画和简短的文字画了一本《关键时刻的礼仪》(新潮文库)。如今越发希望用各国语言翻译这本书。以便能对在日本的外国人有所帮助。同时希望有朝一日以漫画的形式画一本“世界各国的习惯与礼仪”。 练习答案 5、 (1)止める並んでいる見ているなる着色した (2)拾った入っていた行ったしまった始まっていた

新视野大学英语第三版第二册读写课文翻译 Unit 1 Text A 一堂难忘的英语课 1 如果我是唯一一个还在纠正小孩英语的家长,那么我儿子也许是对的。对他而言,我是一个乏味的怪物:一个他不得不听其教诲的父亲,一个还沉湎于语法规则的人,对此我儿子似乎颇为反感。 2 我觉得我是在最近偶遇我以前的一位学生时,才开始对这个问题认真起来的。这个学生刚从欧洲旅游回来。我满怀着诚挚期待问她:“欧洲之行如何?” 3 她点了三四下头,绞尽脑汁,苦苦寻找恰当的词语,然后惊呼:“真是,哇!” 4 没了。所有希腊文明和罗马建筑的辉煌居然囊括于一个浓缩的、不完整的语句之中!我的学生以“哇!”来表示她的惊叹,我只能以摇头表达比之更强烈的忧虑。 5 关于正确使用英语能力下降的问题,有许多不同的故事。学生的确本应该能够区分诸如their/there/they're之间的不同,或区别complimentary 跟complementary之间显而易见的差异。由于这些知识缺陷,他们承受着大部分不该承受的批评和指责,因为舆论认为他们应该学得更好。 6 学生并不笨,他们只是被周围所看到和听到的语言误导了。举例来说,杂货店的指示牌会把他们引向stationary(静止处),虽然便笺本、相册、和笔记本等真正的stationery(文具用品)并没有被钉在那儿。朋友和亲人常宣称They've just ate。实际上,他们应该说They've just eaten。因此,批评学生不合乎情理。 7 对这种缺乏语言功底而引起的负面指责应归咎于我们的学校。学校应对英语熟练程度制定出更高的标准。可相反,学校只教零星的语法,高级词汇更是少之又少。还有就是,学校的年轻教师显然缺乏这些重要的语言结构方面的知识,因为他们过去也没接触过。学校有责任教会年轻人进行有效的语言沟通,可他们并没把语言的基本框架——准确的语法和恰当的词汇——充分地传授给学生。

新视野大学英语1课文翻译 1下午好!作为校长,我非常自豪地欢迎你们来到这所大学。你们所取得的成就是你们自己多年努力的结果,也是你们的父母和老师们多年努力的结果。在这所大学里,我们承诺将使你们学有所成。 2在欢迎你们到来的这一刻,我想起自己高中毕业时的情景,还有妈妈为我和爸爸拍的合影。妈妈吩咐我们:“姿势自然点。”“等一等,”爸爸说,“把我递给他闹钟的情景拍下来。”在大学期间,那个闹钟每天早晨叫醒我。至今它还放在我办公室的桌子上。 3让我来告诉你们一些你们未必预料得到的事情。你们将会怀念以前的生活习惯,怀念父母曾经提醒你们要刻苦学习、取得佳绩。你们可能因为高中生活终于结束而喜极而泣,你们的父母也可能因为终于不用再给你们洗衣服而喜极而泣!但是要记住:未来是建立在过去扎实的基础上的。 4对你们而言,接下来的四年将会是无与伦比的一段时光。在这里,你们拥有丰富的资源:有来自全国各地的有趣的学生,有学识渊博又充满爱心的老师,有综合性图书馆,有完备的运动设施,还有针对不同兴趣的学生社团——从文科社团到理科社团、到社区服务等等。你们将自由地探索、学习新科目。你们要学着习惯点灯熬油,学着结交充满魅力的人,学着去追求新的爱好。我想鼓励你们充分利用这一特殊的经历,并用你们的干劲和热情去收获这一机会所带来的丰硕成果。 5有这么多课程可供选择,你可能会不知所措。你不可能选修所有的课程,但是要尽可能体验更多的课程!大学里有很多事情可做可学,每件事情都会为你提供不同视角来审视世界。如果我只能给你们一条选课建议的话,那就是:挑战自己!不要认为你早就了解自己对什么样的领域最感兴趣。选择一些你从未接触过的领域的课程。这样,你不仅会变得更加博学,而且更有可能发现一个你未曾想到的、能成就你未来的爱好。一个绝佳的例子就是时装设计师王薇薇,她最初学的是艺术史。随着时间的推移,王薇薇把艺术史研究和对时装的热爱结合起来,并将其转化为对设计的热情,从而使她成为全球闻名的设计师。 6在大学里,一下子拥有这么多新鲜体验可能不会总是令人愉快的。在你的宿舍楼里,住在你隔壁寝室的同学可能会反复播放同一首歌,令你头痛欲裂!你可能喜欢早起,而你的室友却是个夜猫子!尽管如此,你和你的室友仍然可能成
