Part B: Grammar,4.,Part C,2,Text A: Engineering,3,1 Engineering is the profession that puts scientific knowledge to practical use. Engineers use,principles,of science to design structures, machines, and products of all kinds. They look for better ways to use existing resources and often develop new materials. Engineers have had a direct role in the creation of most of modern technologythe tools, materials, techniques, and power sources that make our lives easier.,4,1工程学是一门将科学知识适用于实践的专业工程师运用科学原理设计建筑物、机器以及各种各样的产品他们寻找更好的方法来使用理存的资源，同时也经常开发新材料在大局部使我们生活得更加容易的现代科技的创新方面，比方：工具、材料、技术以及能源等，工程师都发挥了直接作用,5,2 The field of engineering includes a wide variety of activities. For example, engineering projects range from the construction of huge dams to the design of tiny electronic circuits. Engineers may help produce guided missiles, industrial robots, or artificial limbs for the physically handicapped. They develop complex scientific equipment to explore the,reaches,of outer space and the depths of the oceans.,6,2工程学领域包括有各种不同的活动，比方，工程工程涵盖内容可大到水坝的建设，小到细微的电子线路的设计。工程师可以帮助生产导弹、工业用机器人或为身体有残疾的人生产假肢。他们开发复杂的科学设备来勘探外层空间的范围和海洋的深度。,7,2 Engineers also plan our electric power and water supply systems, and do research to improve automobiles, television sets, and other consumer products. They may work to reduce environmental pollution, increase the worlds food supply, and make transportation faster and safer.,8,2 工程师还为我们规划电力和供水系统，研究改善汽车，电视机以及其他消费晶。他们致力于减少环境污染，增加世界粮食的供给，以及使运输更加快捷和平安。,9,3 The history of engineering is the record of human,ingenuity,through the ages. Even in prehistoric times, people adapted to basic engineering techniques from things that were available in nature. For example,sturdy,sticks became levers to lift large rocks, and logs were used as,roller,s to move heavy loads. The development of agriculture and the growth of civilization brought about a new wave of engineering efforts.,10,3工程学的历史即是人类世世代代独具匠心的记录甚至是在史前时期，人们就利用自然里可获得的事物作为原始的工程手段例如，结实的棍子用作撬起巨大岩石的杠杆，原木用作移动重物的滚筒。农业的开展和文明的进步带来了工程学研究的新浪潮,11,3 People invented farming tools, designed elaborate irrigation networks, and built the first cities. The construction of the gigantic Egyptian pyramids at Giza during the 2500s B.C. was one of the greatest engineering,feat,s of ancient times. In ancient Rome, engineers built large,aqueduct,s and bridges and vast systems of roads. During the 200s B.C., the Chinese erected major sections of the monumental Great Wall of China.,12,3 人们创造了农具，设计了精巧的灌溉网络建造了初期的城市。公元前26世纪，在吉扎建造的巨大的埃及金宇塔是古代最伟大的工程奇迹之一在古罗马，工程师建造了巨大的水渠，桥梁和许许多多的公路系统。在公元前3世纪，中国人建立了雄伟的万里长城的主体局部。,13,4 Early engineers used such simple machines as the,inclined plane,wedge, and wheel and axle. During the Middle Ages, a period in European history that lasted from the A.D. 400s to the 1500s, inventors developed machines to,harness,water, wind, and animal power. The growing interest in new types of machines and new sources of power to drive them helped bring about the Industrial Revolution of the 1700s and 1800s, during which, their role expanded rapidly.,14,4早期的工程师使用了有斜面的刨子、楔子和轮子和车轴这样闹单的机械。在中世纪(欧洲历史中，从公元5世纪到16世纪这段时期)，创造者开发了利用水力、风力和动物之力的机械对新型机械和驱动这些机械的动力源不断增长的兴趣促使他们引发了18和19世纪的工业革命在工业革命时期，工程师的作用迅速扩展,15,4 The practical steam engine developed by the Scottish engineer James Watt in the 1760s revolutionized transportation and industry by providing a cheap, efficient source of power. New ironmaking techniques provided engineers with the material to improve machines and tools and to build bridges and ships. Many roads, railroads, and canals were constructed to link the growing industrial cities.,16,4 由苏格兰的工程师詹姆斯瓦特在18世纪60年代开发的实用蒸汽发动机提供了廉价且有效的动力源，引发了运输和工业的革命。新的炼铁技术为工程师提供了改善机械与工具，以及建造轮船和桥梁所需的材料人们建造了很多道路，铁道和运河来连接不断开展的工业城市,17,5 Distinct branches of engineering began to develop during the Industrial Revolution. The term,civil engineer,was first used about 1750 by John Smeaton, a British engineer. Mechanical engineers emerged as specialists in industrial machinery, and mining and,metallurgical,engineers were needed to supply metals and fuels.,18,5在工业革命期间，工程学的不同分支开始出现1750年，英国工程师约翰斯密顿，首先使用土木工程师这一词汇机械工程师是指工业机械方面专家，而金属和燃料方面的供给那么需要有采矿和冶金工程师,19,5 By the late 1800s, the development of electric power and advances in chemical processing had created the fields of electrical and chemical engineering. Professional schools began to be founded as the demand for engineers steadily increased.,20,5 到19世纪末期，电力的发屉和化学加工的进步创立了电机和化学工程学由于对工程师的需求不断增加，人们开始建立职业学校。,21,6 Since 1900, the number of engineers and of engineering specialties has expanded dramatically. Artificial hearts, airplanes, computers, lasers, nuclear energy, plastics, space travel, and television are only a few of the scientific and technological breakthroughs that engineers have helped bring about in this century.,22,6自从1900年以来，工程师以及工程专业的数目大规模扩大人工心脏、飞机、计算机、激光、核能、塑料、太空旅行和电视等只是工程师在本世纪所进行的科学技术创新的一小局部,23,6 Because science and technology are progressing and changing so rapidly, todays engineers must study throughout their careers to make sure that their knowledge and,expertise,do not become,obsolete,. They face the challenging task of keeping pace with the latest advances while working to shape the technology of the future.,24,6 因为科学技术在飞速开展和变化，工程师在从事其事业的过程中必须不断学习以确保他们的知识和专门技能不过时。在致力于未来技术开展的同时，他们面临着跟上最新技术的挑战,25,7 The field of engineering offers a broad range of job opportunities. Engineers may work in factories, offices, and government laboratories or at construction sites. Some engineers are involved in the research and development (R&D) of new products.

Many engineers work on projects in teams that include scientists, technicians, and other engineers, however, some engineers act as independent,consultant,s who sell their services to people who need engineering assistance. Engineers may also hold teaching positions or move up into management positions in business.,28,7 还有一些其他的工程师运用他们的知识背景和所受的训练来销售技术设备或进行技术设备维护。很多工程师与他人一起做工程，这个集体中包括科学家、技师和其他工程师等；但是，也有一些工程师是作为独立的参谋向那些需要技术支持的人出售他们的效劳。工程师还可能任教职，或者从事企业的管理工作。,29,8 Certain abilities and traits help qualify a person for an engineering career. Engineers must have technical,aptitude,and skill in mathematics and the sciences. They should be curious about the how and why of natural and mechanical things and creative in finding new ways of doing things, able to analyze problems systematically and logically and to communicate well both orally and in writing, and willing to work within strict budgets and meet tight deadlines.,30,8成为工程事业的合格人才应具备一定的能力和特征。工程师必须有数学和科学领域的天资与技能。他们要对自然事物和机械事物的“如何和“为什么等问题充谓好奇心，能够创造性地发现开展工作的新方法，能够有步骤地，逻辑地分析问题，善于口头上和书面上的沟通，能够接受紧缩的预算和较紧的工期。,31,8 In addition, skill in directing and supervising other workers is an important part of many engineering jobs.,32,8 另外，对于很多工程任务，指挥和监督其他工作人员的技巧也是很重要的。,33,1.principle,1. 原那么;原理C,I take this seriously.
