1、那个经济学家说如果利率调高几个百分点经济就会放缓，我看这是夸张。

2、人类在追求更好的生活条件的时候，应该约束自己不要毁灭其他的物种。

4、I remember viewing a half dozen me in a chair factory whose job it was to bend several pieces of steel and attach them so that a folding chair would result. While there were ten or twelve of these "teams" that worked together, one in particular was known for its perfect coordination and lightning-like efforts. The men knew they were good. They would work spurts for twenty or thirty minutes before taking a break -- to show themselves, bystanders and other groups what it was to be superbly skilled and self-controlled, to be the best in the factory.

5、Should doctors ever lie to benefit their patients -- to speed recovery or to conceal the approach of death? In medicine as in law, government, and other lines of work, the requirements of honesty often seem dwarfed by greater needs: the need to shelter from brutal news or to uphold a promise of secrecy; to expose corruption or to promote the public interest.

6、First， weather would no longer be important， since， it is primarily a phenomenon of the atmosphere。 Rain， snow， sleet， fog would not trouble the underground world。 Even temperature variations are limited to the open surface and would not exist underground。 Whether day or night， summer or winter， temperatures in the underground world remain equable and nearly constant。

谢谢！

1. The economist says that the economy would slow down ifthe interest rate is raised by several basis points, which I see is exaggerating the problem.

2. We human being should control ourselves, not to destroy other species while seeking a better life.

4.(google了原文，发现是教科书上内容，但个人怀疑a half dozen me有印刷错误，感觉应为a half dozen men更符合上下文，以下为试译）
我记得在一家生产椅子的工厂，有六个工人，他们的工作就是把钢片打弯焊起来制成折叠椅。当时厂里有十到十二个这样的“小组”一起工作，其中一组因为有着闪电般的效率和高度协调能力而出名。那些工人知道自己很厉害。他们会在休息前狂工作二十到三十分钟，向自己，其它组工人还有参观者展示什么才是技术娴熟和高度自控，以及什么才叫厂里最优秀的工人。

5.医生应不应该为了病人的利益而撒谎，去帮助他们加快恢复或者隐瞒濒临死亡的实情？在医疗体系，和在法律，政务等其它工作领域一样，诚实在以下更大的需求前往往相形见绌：掩盖残酷新闻或者维护保密承诺，曝光腐败或者维护公共利益。

6.首先，天气由于自身是大气层里的一种现象，将失去它的影响力。雨，雪，冰雹，大雾也不会给地下世界带来麻烦。在地下，因为没有了开放面，连温度差也将不复存在。无论白天黑夜，酷夏严冬，地下世界的温度将稳定甚至接近恒温。
