The newcomers were of peasant stock, and they had their roots in a Europe where they had been landless, for the possession of land was the requirement and the proof of a higher social class than they has known. In America they found beautiful and boundless land for the taking and they took it. It is little wonder that they went land-mad, because there was so much of it.

第23题,Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese.    Understanding this transition requires a look at the tow-sided connection between energy and human well-being. Energy contributes positively to well-being by providing such consumer services as heating and lighting as well as serving as a necessary input to economic production. But the costs of energy -- including not only the money and other resources devoted to obtaining and exploiting it, but also environmental and sociopolitical impacts --detract from well-being. For most of human history, the dominant concerns about energy have centered on the benefit side of the energy-well-being equation. Inadequacy of energy resources or more often of the technologies and organizations for harvesting, converting, and distributing  those resources has meant insufficient energy benefits and hence inconvenience, depriving and constraints on growth.

第41题,I have often wondered at the savagery and thoughtlessness with which our early settlers approached this rich continent.  They came at it as though it were an enemy, which of course it was.  They burned the forests and changed the rainfall; they swept the buffalo from the plains, blasted the streams, set fire to the grass, and ran a reckless scythe through the virgin and noble timber.  Perhaps they felt that it was limitless and could never be exhausted and that a man could move on to new wonders endlessly. Certainly there are many examples to the contrary, but to a large extent the early people pillaged the country as though they hated it, as though they held it temporarily and might be driven off at any time.
