SAT寫作素材之愛因斯坦

The Century’s Greatest Minds

Albert Einstein

The scientific touchstones of the modern age——the Bomb, space travel, electronics, Quantum physics——all bear his imprint.Einstein had conjured the whole business, it seemed.He did not invent the “thought experiment”, but he raised it to high art.Imagine twins , wearing identical watches;one stays home, while the other rides in a spaceship near the speed of light ? little wonder that from 1919, Einstein was——and remains today——the world’s most famous scientist.In his native Germany he became a target for hatred.As a Jew, a liberal, a humanist, an internationalist, he attracted the enmity of rationalist and anti-semites.His was now a powerful voice, widely heard, always attended to , especially after he moved to the U.S.He used it to promote zionism, pacifism, in his secret 1939 letter to Franklin D.Roosevelt, the construction of a uranium bomb.Meanwhile, like any demigod, he made bits of legend: that he failed math in school(not true).That he opened a book and found an uncashed $1,500 check he had left as a bookmark(maybe---he was absentminded about everyday affairs).That he was careless about socks, collars, slippers ? that he couldn’t even remember his address: 112 Mercer Street in Princeton, where he finally settled.He died there in 1955 And after the rest of Einstein had been cremated, his brain remained, soaking for decades in a jar of formaldehyde belonging to Dr.Thomas Harvey.No one had bothered to dissect the brain of Freud, Stravinsky or Joyce, but in the 1980s, bits of Einsteinian gray matter were making the rounds of certain neurobiologists, who thus learned ? absolutely nothing.It was just a brain——the brain that dreamed a plastic fourth dimension, that banished the ether, that released the pins binding us to absolute space and time, that refused to believe God played dice.In embracing Einstein, our century took leave of a prior universe and an erstwhile God.The new versions were not so rigid and deterministic as the Newtonian world.Einstein’s.God was no clockmaker, but the embodiment of reason in nature.This God did not control our actions or even sit in judgment on them.(“Einstein, stop telling God what to do,” Niels Bohr Finally retorted.)This God seemed rather kindly and absentminded, as a matter of fact.Physics was free, and we too are free, in the Einstein universe which is where we live.(小馬過河國際教育)

A long time ago, there was a Chinese merchant.Once he gained two horses.One of them is a pure breed horse that can sustain long-distance rides, but the other one is ordinary has no good quality.The merchant took them home, and try to make them tame.The ordinary horse was pretty docile;it followed all orders that were given by its master.On the contrary, the talented horse was very wild and intractable.When the merchant firstly rode the horse, the animal became furious and cast the merchant off.Although, the horse was not docile, the merchant gave the best forage to it instead of the ordinary one.Because he knew that no matter how talented horse behaves, the real treasure would never be buried.The ordinary horse’s loyalty and good behaviors are useless to the merchant.In this case, we see that talent is much more important than morality.Some people afraid of the objects which can not be totally control.I think this ideology makes them always emphasize that one’s morality is more important than talent.However, in my opinion, morality is the criterion made by the majority, and sometimes it likes a cage that restricts people’s creation.For instance, in the 17th century, the church controlled people’s ideology severely.All citizens have the same morality.The people who waked up and started to do researches in science field were regarded as immoral, guilty and should be punished.This is the morality that existed in 17th century Europe.But at present, everyone knows that this morality is ridiculous.Thus, we can see that morality can be changed and amended with the passing of time.As a government agent, talent is more significant than morality.Those agents are elites in society and work in the country’s central institutions.They must have talent to deal with all problems they meet.Some people might say that loyalty is the quality may more important than talent.But I think if a agent has no talent, or so this loyalty should be called blind loyalty which is utterly useless.I am convinced that the government agent should have his own thinking.A straight-arrow agent will never make any contribution.Morality always changes, but talent remains forever.A talented agent likes a horse that can run a long distance.He is the diamond and shinning always.On the contrary, a person who only has morality is a good citizen, but not the one who has talent and we call them the elite.

電影“deep blue sea”.適用于道德與成功的關(guān)系或sucess can be disasterous的題

On a remote top-secret floating facility called Aquatica, a team of scientists are searching for a cure for Alzheimer's disease.The team consists of Dr.Susan McCallister(Saffron Burrows), the scientist behind the experiment who decided to begin finding a cure after seeing her father suffers from Alzheimer's;Jim Whitlock;Dr.Janice Higgins;Carter Blake(Thomas Jane), a shark wrangler;Tom Scoggins, an engineer;etc.Despite Blake's warnings, McCallister violates the code of ethics and creates three genetically engineered mako sharks.Her intent is to increase their brain capacity so the scientists can harvest tissue as a cure for Alzheimer's.Unfortunately, the increased brain capacity also makes the sharks smarter, faster and more aggressive—as well as growing to the size of great white sharks, gaining increased memory, and being able to swim backwards.Aquatica's financial backers are skeptical about the tests and following the attack on the teens, send corporate executive Russell Franklin(Samuel L.Jackson)to visit the facility.In order to prove that the research is worth it, the team schedules a test to remove brain fluid bearing the protein complex from the largest shark.After removing the tissue, they rejoice as it brings test cells back temporarily.However, after the test, the shark breaks free and bites off Whitlock's arm.Blake tries to shoot it, but McCallister saves it by pressing the release button, sending it back to the holding pen.An emergency request is made for paramedics, while the team gets Whitlock to the surface.The medical helicopter arrives and they manage to get Whitlock attached to the winch cable, despite a severe storm.However, the cable motor fails and Whitlock is dropped into the water.The shark which McCallister earlier saved grabs the cable and drags the helicopter into the communications tower, resulting in a massive explosion that kills Brenda and both pilots, and destroys the “surface level”(the facility's level above water,)stranding the surviving crew beneath.Then the smart but slaughterous sharks started their vengeful hunting for humans.

SAT寫作素材之塞萬提斯

下面為大家介紹的是關(guān)于一位西班牙的作家塞萬提斯的SAT寫作素材，這位作家最為世人所熟悉的作品就是《堂吉訶德》。這篇SAT寫作素材向大家簡要的介紹了他的生平和創(chuàng)造這部小說的背景。大家一起來看看詳細(xì)內(nèi)容吧。

Miguel de Cervantes

Full name: Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

Cervantes wrote the epic satire Don Quixote, regarded as the first true modern novel.Little is known of Cervantes's early life;at 23 he enlisted in the Spanish militia and then fought against the Turks in the battle of Lepanto(1571)where a gunshot wound permanently crippled his left hand.He spent four more years at sea and then another five as a slave after being captured by Barbary pirates.Ransomed by his family, he returned to Madrid but his disability hampered him;it was in debtor's prison that he began to write Don Quixote.The title character, a dreamy middle-aged nobleman, sets out through Spain on a makeshift quest to fight injustice through acts of chivalry.Cervantes wrote many other works, including poems and plays, but none had the impact or popularity of his masterpiece.塞萬提斯(Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra，1547年-1616年)是文藝復(fù)興時期西班牙小說家、劇作家、詩人，1547年9月29日出生，1616年4月23日在馬德里逝世。他被譽為是西班牙文學(xué)世界里最偉大的作家。評論家們稱他的小說《堂吉訶德》是文學(xué)史上的第一部現(xiàn)代小說，同時也是世界文學(xué)的瑰寶之一。《堂吉訶德》是文藝復(fù)興時期的現(xiàn)實主義杰作，作者塞萬提斯。主要描寫和諷刺了當(dāng)時西班牙社會上十分流行的騎士小說，并揭示出教會的專橫，社會的黑暗和人民的困苦。《堂吉訶德》問世以來，經(jīng)受住了時間的考驗，堂吉訶德的名字在不同歷史年代，不同國家都流傳著。別林斯基曾說，堂吉訶德是一個“永遠(yuǎn)前進的形象”。堂吉訶德的名字已經(jīng)變成一個具有特定意義的名詞，成了脫離實際、熱忱幻想，主觀主義，迂腐頑固，落后于歷史進程的同義語。革命導(dǎo)師馬克思、恩格斯、列寧在著作里不止一次地提到堂吉訶德。堂吉訶德的形象在今天仍保持它的意義。(小馬過河國際教育)
