These questions are political in the
sense that the debate over them will
inevitably be less an exploration of
abstract matters in a spirit of
(50) disinterested inquiry than an academic
power struggle in which the careers and
professional fortunes of many women
scholars-only now entering the academic
profession in substantial numbers-will
(55) be at stake, and with them the chances
for a distinctive contribution to
humanistic understanding, a contribution
that might be an important influence
against sexism in our society.
这些问题之所以带有政治性质，因为可避免地，围绕这些问题展开的急诊与其说是一种在客观冷静科研精神指导下对抽象问题的探索，倒不如说是一种学术上的权力斗争。在此斗争中，许多女学者中——只是在现在才开始以众多的人数进入学术界——的学术生涯和职业命运将处于存亡攸关的危急关头，与她们相伴随的是对人文理解作出一种独特贡献的机遇，这一贡献则很有可能成为消除我们社会中所存在的性别主义的一股重要影响。
In experiments,an injection
of cytoplasm from dextral eggs
changes the pattern of sinistral eggs,
but an injection from sinistral eggs
(80) does not influence dextral eggs.
在实验中，用取自右旋卵子的细胞质进行的注射，可改变左旋卵子的模式；用取自左旋卵子的细胞质进行的注射却不能影响到右旋卵子
Recently some scientists have
concluded that meteorites found on Earth
and long believed to have a Martian
origin might actually have been blasted
(5) free of Mars’s gravity by the impact on
Mars of other meteorites.
最近，某些科学家得出结论认为，那些在地球上发现的并一直被相信源自火星的陨石（meteorite），实际上有可能是由于其它的陨石撞击火星而致使其被震离火星的重力作用范围。
Under the force of this view,
it was perhaps inevitable that the art
of rhetoric should pass from the status
of being regarded as of questionable
(10) worth (because although it might be both
a source of pleasure and a means to urge
people to right action, it might also be
a means to distort truth and a source of
misguided action) to the status of being
(15) wholly condemned.
在这种观点的力量作用下，一件或许是不可避免的事情发生了：修辞艺术竟然从被视和具有让人怀疑的价值这样一种地位（因为尽管它有可能既构成一种歪曲真理的手段和误导行为的来源）转变到彻底遭谴责的地位。
None of these
(15) translations to screen and stage,
however, dramatize the anarchy at the
conclusion of A Connecticut Yankee,
which ends with the violent overthrow
of Morgan’s three-year-old progressive
(20) order and his return to the nineteenth
century, where he apparently commits
suicide after being labeled a lunatic
for his incoherent babblings about
drawbridges and battlements.
然则，在所有这些被搬上银幕和舞台的改编作品中，没有任何一部作品能生动地再现《康乃涅克州的美国佬》结尾处的无政府状态。而在原作结尾处所描述的情节是，摩根历时三年之久苦心经营的进步事业被暴力推翻，他又重返于十九世纪，在由于他的那些有关吊桥和城垛的语无伦次的唠叨而被列为疯子之后，显然自杀身亡。
