The year of 2009 will bring an avalanche of books, lectures, television programs and articles on Charles Darwin. (II-1)
It is 200 years since he was born and 150 years since he was pushed to publish his On the Origin of Species earlier than he intended by the arrival of a letter from Alfred Russel Wallace, the naturalist who, independently, had the same theory of natural selection that Darwin had supposed all his own.
Since Darwin wasn’t alone in thinking up the theory of natural selection or in assembling evidence in support of evolution, are we right to make such a song and dance of his anniversary? The short answer is "yes" . (II-2)
On the Origin of Species is the most important biology book yet written and Darwin has done as much as anyone, including Copernicus, Newton, Marx and Freud, to change how we see ourselves.
Why does Darwinian worldview matters more than ever? Above all, Darwin decenters humanity. In this he completes the work that Copernicus and Galileo began. We are not the centre of the universe. The universe existed long before we came on the scene. (II-3)
This decentering does not, of course, mean that we matter any the less.
Rather, it helps us to appreciate that we do not sit in a distinct category from the rest of creation. The great apes that are heading towards extinction in the wildness and are still used in some countries for medical research really are our relatives. [br] (Ⅱ一2)
选项
答案
The book On the Origin of Species written by Darwin is the most vital one in the biology history.From the new look we have for ourselves,Darwin’s dedication was no less than that of the scientists such as Copernicus,Newton,Marx and Freud.
解析
原句句子大意:《物种起源》一书是现有最重要的一本生物书,从改变我们对自身看法这一点上来说,达尔文所作的贡献并不亚于哥白尼、牛顿、弗洛伊德和马克思等人。Darwin has done as much as anyone(字面意思是“达尔文做的并不比别人少”,实际上此处是指达尔文对人类认识自我的贡献巨大),因此可换成:Darwin’s dedication was no less than that of the scientists.
