NUMA POMPILIUSLegendary, 8th-7th Century B.C.by Plutarchtranslated by John DrydenTHOUGH the pedigrees of noble families of Rome go back in exact formas far as Numa Pompilius, yet there is great diversity amongsthistorians concerning the time in which he reigned; a certain writercalled Clodius, in a book of his entitled Strictures on Chronology,avers that the ancient registers of Rome were lost when the city wassacked by the Gauls, and that those which are now extant werecounterfeited, to flatter and serve the humour of some men whowished to have themselves derived from some ancient and noble lineage,though in reality with no claim to it. And though it be commonly...　

The Lesser Bourgeoisieby Honore de BalzacTranslated by Katharine Prescott WormeleyDEDICATIONTo Constance-Victoire.Here, madame, is one of those books which come into the mind,whence no one knows, giving pleasure to the author before he canforesee what reception the public, our great present judge, willaccord to it. Feeling almost certain of your sympathy in mypleasure, I dedicate the book to you. Ought it not to belong toyou as the tithe formerly belonged to the Church in memory of God,who makes all things bud and fruit in the fields and in theintellect?A few lumps of clay, left by Moliere at the feet of his colossalstatue of Tartuffe, have here been kneaded by a hand more daringthan able; but, at whatever distance I may be from the greatest of...　

讲课的时候，使自己的学习要点被人理解是你面临的最大挑战。一些最重要的基本方针包括以下几点：一一陈述观点。如果你一次性向听众抛出太多观点，很多人会很快晕头转向。当你提出某个观点，要鼓励参与者对此作出反应。并且，在提出下一个观点之前,尽量让听众理解这个观点。尽可能讲得具体。避免一般性的概括。要有逻辑。按顺序讲解观点，使听众能明白，比如按年代、话题，或者从不重要到重要等顺序。使用听众熟悉的平实语言。避免术语和生僻词语。目标明确。首先问问自己，“通过传达这一信息我要达到什么目标？”先给听众一个总的概括。记住这个公理： “告诉别人你将要讲什么，接着开始讲，然后再总结你讲了什么。”对你将要讲的内容作一些铺垫，对关键词语进行定义，以使听众拥有和你一样的知识背景。第一部分内容再枯燥乏味，培训也未必会令人厌烦谁说乏味的材料就一定枯燥？如果你碰到被认为枯燥或令人厌烦的材料，首先问两个...　

　　有人说，我的名字，覆灭了整整一个王朝。我冷笑，斟一杯花雕，一口饮尽。　　城头上长满荒草，那苍翠的颜色如一颗凄清的泪，悬挂在薄暮的腮边。有风泠泠，自灰色的城墙砖间穿梭而过。　　我坐在城头，脚下是亘古的沉寂与干涸的血色，西边的天际悬着将出的月，清浅地着落在尚显明亮的天空。那是一块容易伤感的地方，缓慢滞重，滋生出寂寞的触角。我抬起头，落日的余晖铺满城楼，仿佛我凌波一舞时披在身上的那层红绫。书上说：那一日，残阳如血。　　残阳如血。你的大槊在金晖下大开大阖，每一个起落，必定掀起一片血海。我不要你为我背负，而你，却定要负尽天下，为你的际遇，劈杀出一片绮罗香泽的起承转合，将我注定被你以一世宠爱的名字，以你的大槊，铸成一段无法剪去的耻辱，写满你仓惶的背影，与我枯槁的衣袖。　　这尘世，容得下绝色的女子，却容不下一个令英雄折腰，致他负罪千古江山的名字。　　而其实，我又能怎样？我...

FINALE.Every limit is a beginning as well as an ending. Who can quit younglives after being long in company with them, and not desire to knowwhat befell them in their after-years? For the fragment of a life,however typical, is not the sample of an even web: promises maynot be kept, and an ardent outset may be followed by declension;latent powers may find their long-waited opportunity; a past errormay urge a grand retrieval.Marriage, which has been the bourne of so many narratives,is still a great beginning, as it was to Adam and Eve, who kepttheir honeymoon in Eden, but had their first little one among thethorns and thistles of the wilderness. It is still the beginningof the home epicthe gradual conquest or irremediable loss...　

主讲人简介王直华，60年代从清华大学电子专业毕业，毕业后从事科学研究工作多年，后调至科学时报从事科技新闻报道工作。曾任科学时报副总编。现任中国科普作协副理事长。出版过《小行星撞地球》等多篇科普著作，发表《论新闻科普》、《论素质教育》等多篇论文。内容简介科学和文化应该有一个很好的融合。但是科学和文化的融合需要转变观念，真正的科学大师们一般都有独特的视角。在这里我想举一个物理学家的例子。这个物理学家是狄拉克，他在三十年代前后，提出来反物质的概念，他的观念也是非常的超前的。突破了当时人们的日常思维。现在大家再看一幅科学图像，在这儿我们真的欣赏到科学之美，在这里我们也看到科学的线条美。实际上科学既有它的线条美，也有它的色彩美，还有它的动态美，我们看科学它有美感，科学是完全可以欣赏的，而科学体现出来的美，有的时候是需要转换我们的视角，才能发现科学的真理之美。著名的科学家汤姆...　

香蝶作品全集·钟馗嫁妹系列眼儿媚楔子　　钟离隔着窗子看到钟魁的时候，四弟正督着几位妹妹修行，没精打彩的脸上带着没精打采的笑，印象中钟离好象就没见过钟魁沮丧的样子，打从老爷子让他进府来的那一天起，似乎那嘴角就总是上扬的。　　钟离觉得很奇怪，虽然是庶出，还是老爷偷娶的三房的庶出，这样好脾气的兄弟也算是十分讨人喜欢了，为何几个妹妹都说他是钟馗，是真真正正带着小鬼儿的凶神呢？　　或许是对几个妹妹太严的缘故？　　钟离从窗口探进头去叫：“钟魁！”　　钟魁听见了，把爬到膝盖上用墨水在纸上画圈圈的小妹妹捉起来，宛如捉一只小肥猪，他把她放到地上，站起来快步迎到窗前。　　“大少爷！”他俯首低眉，态度十分和顺。　　“如今该叫大哥了，不需要这么生分。”钟离皱起眉，提醒他。　　钟魁笑笑，“大哥。”叫一声，很坦然，并不忸怩作态，似乎先前的叫法只是没改过来的习惯，这后来的叫法和前面的本质上并...

，，女人玩世界和女友一起去正大广场逍遥。我其实很喜欢fb一词，它让我有堕落的快感。但现在好像不许随便乱用了。正大广场是个奇妙的地方，集中了所有你你能想象的消费场所。一家家小店布置得精致，标签后面总是不经意地拖了几个零。六层以上已经吃喝盛行，几乎沪上流行的菜馆这里都有分支机构，我们要去的是七楼。这个很有意思，楼下刚吃完，楼上就开始消食了，不少减肥中心。女人的一生就是吃了减，减了吃。朋友带我沿七楼转一圈，真是叫我惊叹啊，威尔士的健身中心里花样百出，除了器械之外，瑜伽馆就两个，还分热冷。健身房有我喜欢的肚皮舞和拉丁，搞得我蠢蠢欲动，老想去买它家的十年卡，因为根据我有限的数学知识，好像只有十年卡最划算。旁边有美容院，除了美容还有减肥套餐，用个什么仪器在你身上扫一下，据说下来就轻两斤，不过价格也是够糁人的。我赶紧捂紧口袋，以免荷包迅速瘪下去，就这一会儿，被忽悠的差点三万块...

　　吴思2004年春于北京话说中国的新窑子不仅仅是为了他们　　孙立平　　黑明是一个着力用镜头去记录普通人生存状态的摄影家。在他的多部摄影集里，都给人们展示了普通人的生活和感受。而在这本即将出版的《100年的新窑子》中，他则将态度镜头长时间地对准陕西一个小山村那几百口人落后而又普通的生活。　　《100年的新窑子》首先给我的一个强烈视觉冲击就是那几十幅标准的“标准像”。黑明告诉我，这是他用自己一台最大的相机拍摄的。也许我可以这样认为，这大概是迄今为止为农民拍摄的一组“质量”最好的标准像了。这倒让我想起一件事情来。在二十多年前粉碎“四人帮”的时候，揭发出来王洪文的罪行之一，就是私自拍摄了标准像，以便为他篡夺党和国家领导权做准备。这件事情虽然已经过去了二十多年，但也说明，在我们的政治和社会生活中，标准像，而且不是挂在自己家里的标准像，是一件多么郑重其事的事情，是一件有着多么重大政...　

GALBA5 B.C.? - 69 A.D.by Plutarchtranslated by John DrydenIPHICRATES the Athenian used to say that it is best to have amercenary soldier fond of money and of pleasures, for thus he willfight the more boldly, to procure the means to gratify his desires.But most have been of opinion, that the body of an army, as well asthe natural one, when in its healthy condition, should make no effortsapart, but in compliance with its head. Wherefore they tell us thatPaulus Aemilius, on taking command of the forces in Macedonia, andfinding them talkative and impertinently busy, as though they were allcommanders, issued out his orders that they should have only ready...　

MY KINSMAN, MAJOR MOLINEUXAfter the kings of Great Britain had assumed the right ofappointing the colonial governors, the measures of the latterseldom met with the ready and generous approbation which had beenpaid to those of their predecessors, under the original charters.The people looked with most jealous scrutiny to the exercise ofpower which did not emanate from themselves, and they usuallyrewarded their rulers with slender gratitude for the compliancesby which, in softening their instructions from beyond the sea,they had incurred the reprehension of those who gave them. Theannals of Massachusetts Bay will inform us, that of six governorsin the space of about forty years from the surrender of the oldcharter, under James II, two were imprisoned by a popular...　

A Woman of Thirtyby Honore de BalzacTranslated by Ellen MarriageDEDICATIONTo Louis Boulanger, Painter.A WOMAN OF THIRTYI.EARLY MISTAKESIt was a Sunday morning in the beginning of April 1813, a morning which gave promise of one of those bright days when Parisians, for the first time in the year, behold dry pavements underfoot and a cloudless sky overhead. It was not yet noon when a luxurious cabriolet, drawn by two spirited horses, turned out of the Rue de Castiglione into the Rue de Rivoli, and drew up behind a row of carriages standing before the newly opened barrier half-way down the Terrasse de Feuillants. The owner of the carriage looked anxious and out of health; the thin hair on his sallow temples, turning gray already, gave a look of premature age to his f...
