History is a doomed enterprise that we happily

5、 pursue because of the thrill of the hunt, because exploring the past is such fun, because of the intellectual challenges involved, because a nation needs to know its own history. Or so we historians insist. Because in the end, a nations history must be both the guide and the domain not so much of i

7、their class, Professor Schellenberg claims this link is misleading.【 F2】Instead, improved academic performance may be because brighter children from privileged backgrounds are more likely to learn an instrument, rather than music classes helping to boost their intelligence. “Music may change you a b

8、it, but its also the case that different children take music lessons.“ said Professor Schellenberg, who added that parents education was the most influential factor on musicality.【 F3】Children who take music lessons come from families with higher incomes, they come from families with more educated p

9、arents, they also do more extracurricular activities, they have higher IQs, and they do better at school.【F4】In tests on 167 children who played piano or other instruments, they found their answer to personality tests could predict how likely it was for them to continue their music lessons. Those wh

10、o were more outgoing and conscientious were more likely to continue to play. “We were motivated by the fact that kids who take music lessons are particularly good students, in school they actually do better than you would predict from their IQ, so obviously something else is going on.“ Professor Sch

11、ellenberg told the American Association for the Advancement of Science(A A AS)annual conference in Boston.【F5】Asked if so-called helicopter parents were wasting their money sending their children to music lessons in the belief they could boost their school results, he said “yes“. “Clearly studying m

12、usic changes the brain, but so does any learning. In fact, that is what learning is.“ he said.11 【F1】12 【F2】13 【F3】14 【F4】15 【F5】15 Relativity theory has had a profound influence on our picture of matter by forcing us to modify our concept of a particle in an essential way.【F1】In classical physics,

13、the mass of an object had always been associated with an indestructible material substance, with some “stuff“ of which all things were thought to be made. Relativity theory showed that mass has nothing to do with any substance, but is a form energy. Energy, however, is a dynamic quantity associated

14、with activity, or with processes.【F2 】The fact that the mass of a particle is equivalent to a certain of energy means that the particle can no longer be seen as a static object, but has to be conceived as a dynamic pattern.This new view of particles was initiated by Dirac when he formulated a relati

15、vistic equation describing the behavior of electrons.【F3】Diracs theory was not only extremely successful in accounting for the fine details of atomic structure, but also revealed a fundamental symmetry between matter and anti-matter. It predicted the existence of an anti-matter with the same mass as

16、 the electron but with an opposite charge. This positively charged particle, now called the positron, was indeed discovered two years after Dirac had predicted it. The symmetry between matter and anti-matter implies that for every particle there exists an antiparticles with equal mass and opposite c

17、harge. Pairs of particles and antiparticles can be created if enough energy is available and can be made to turn into pure energy in the reverse process of destruction.【F4】These processes of particle creation and destruction had been predicted from Diracs theory before they were actually discovered

18、in nature, and since then they have been observed millions of times.The creation of material particles from pure energy is certainly the most spectacular effect of relativity theory, and it can only be understood in terms of the view of particles outlined above.【F5 】Before relativistic particle phys

19、ics, the constituents of matter had always been considered as being either elementary units which were indestructible and unchangeable, or as composite objects which could be broken up into their constituent parts. The basic question was whether one could divide matter again and again, or whether on

20、e would finally arrive at some smallest indivisible units.16 【F1】17 【F2】18 【F3】19 【F4】20 【F5】考研英语（翻译）模拟试卷 75 答案与解析Part CDirections: Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.
