2. 名人英语的故事
When in Rome the pope stopped to pray for the President’s recovery and immediately sent him a personal message with his prayers and hopes.
These were worrisome times. It had not been so long before, ring a Vatican meeting with an aide to the pope’s secretary of state, that William Casey left with a final word of caution.
The CIA station in Rome had passed along a curious, and perhaps important, piece of information. When Lech Walesa had visited the pope, his host had been a man from the Italian Labour Confederation. The CIA had been told by Italian counter-intelligence officials that the host was working for Bulgaria. Since Bulgarians were under the control of the Soviets, this could either mean that Solidarity’s plans were compromised or that Walesa was in danger.
On May 13, 1981, at 5 pm, the pontiff emerged for his weekly general audience in St, Peter’s Square. After entering the open “popemobile”,the pontiff was riding around the colonnade. His aide Stanislaw Dziwisz was next to him.
Suddenly Dziwisz heard a deafening noise, and pigeons all over the square took flight. Then the pope slumped against him.
“I knew the Holy Father was hit”, Dziwisz says “but there was no sign of blood or a wound on him . Then I asked him. ‘Where?’ he replied, ‘In my stomach.’”
The pope had been wounded in his stomach, right elbow and index finger of his left hand. He was transferred to an ambulance, which sped him to a hospital.
“Mary, my mother! Mary, my mother!” the Holy Father kept repeating. His eyes were closed, and he was in great pain, At the Gemelli Clinic the pope was rushed first to a tenth-floor room reserved for a papal emergency and then to an operating room. He’d lost a great deal of blood, and because his condition was critical, last rites were administered.
The operation lasted five hours and 20 minutes. Twenty two inches of John Paul Ⅱ’s intestine were removed. “Hope graally returned ring the operation.” Said Dziwisz. “It became clear that no vital organ had been hit and that he just might survive.”
Like the bullet that almost killed Ronald Reagan, this one had passed a few millimeters from the aorta. “If it had hit, death would have been instantaneous,” Dziwisz observed. “It did not touch any vital point. It was really miraculous.”
“One hand fired,” the pope said later, “and another hand guided the bullet.”
The triggerman was apprehended almost immediately. He was identified as Mehmet Ali Agca, a Turkish terrorist. Agca had publicly vowed to kill the pope ring the potiff’s 1979 visit to Turkey.
In recent years, ever mindful of a need for dialogue with the Jews, John Paul Ⅱmade the grand gesture of crossing the Tiber River to visit the main synagogue of Rome, something no pope had ever done before. As Roman Jews know, their community is older than the oldest Christian church. When Saints Peter and Paul came to Rome, the Torah was already being read and the Sabbath observed in the capital of the Roman Empire.
Onlookers recall that when he delivered his speech in the synagogue, John Paul Ⅱat times seemed close to breaking down. Once, as a boy, he’d gone to the synagogue in his village with his father to a choir sing “Ani Maamin” (I believe), which had been chanted by condemned Jews in the death camps on their way to the gas chambers. As the voice of the choir swelled, the pope bent forward, his head bowed and his hand covering his mouth.
Despite john paul Ⅱ’s declining health, the last years of his pontificate24 have seen a burst of activity. And though his hand is increasingly weary as he raises it to bless the faithful25, it points to a wider horizon.
当教皇在罗马时，他停下为总统的康复而祈祷并同时向总统表示了他本人的祝愿和希望。
那时正是令人提心吊胆的日子。就在不久前，在梵蒂冈一次与教皇的国务秘书的助手的会见中，威廉姆·凯希留下的最后一句话就是要小心。
驻罗马的中央情报局传来一个奇怪的，同时可能也是个重要的信息。当莱克·瓦文萨拜会教皇时，东道主是个来自意大利工党的人。中央情报局已被意大利反间谍官员告知其人为保加利亚工作。由于保加利亚人受到苏联的控制，这可能就意味着波兰团结工会的计划已被泄露或是瓦文萨本人身处险境。
1981年5月13日下午五时，主教出现在圣彼得广场进行每周的接见。进入敞蓬的“教皇之车”后，主教环柱廊而行。他的助手斯坦尼斯洛·简维茨坐在他旁边。
突然简维茨听到一声震耳欲聋的巨响，广场上的鸽子四散飞去。紧接着教皇靠着他瘫倒下去。
简维茨说：“我知道教皇被击中了，可表面上没有血迹或伤口。于是我问，‘哪儿受伤了？’他答道，‘肚子上。’”
教皇肚子上，右肘和左手食指都受了伤。他被抬上一辆救护车，迅速送往医院。
教皇不停地重复着：“玛丽亚，我的圣母！玛丽亚，我的圣母！”他的双目紧闭着，痛苦万分。在杰米里医院教皇先被火速送往十楼预留的教皇抢救室，而后送往手术室。他失血过多，情况非常危急，因此为他举行了最后的宗教仪式。
手术持续了5小时20分钟。约翰·保罗二世的肠子被切除了二十二英寸。“手术中渐渐有了希望，”简维兹说，“很明显致命的器官未被击中，他得救了。”
就像子弹险些杀害罗纳德·里根那样，这枚子弹在离主动脉几毫米的位置穿过。简维兹说：“如若动脉被击中，死亡可能就是瞬间的事，可子弹未伤到任何要害的地方。这真是个奇迹。”
教皇后来说：“那个人是一只手开火，另一只手扶着准星。”
这个杀手几乎就地被擒。他被认出叫穆罕默德·阿里·阿克查，是个土耳其恐怖主义者。1979年教皇访问土耳其时，阿克查曾公开发誓要将他杀掉。
近些年来，约翰·保罗二世一直关注着与犹太人对话的必要性，他做出了宏伟的壮举，跨过台伯河去访问罗马的主要的犹太教堂，这对教皇来说是前所未有的。 据罗马犹太人所知，他们的社区比最古老的基督教堂皇还要老。当圣彼德和圣保罗来到罗马时，人们已开始在诵读摩西经并且在罗马帝国的首都里过着安息日。
旁观者回忆说，当纪翰·保罗二世在犹太教堂发表演讲时，他时常情难自持。在他还是孩子时，一次他同父亲就曾去过他们村中的犹太教堂去合唱“Ani Maamin”（我想信），这首歌曾为被判罪的犹太人在从集中营到毒气室的路上所吟唱。当合唱的声音越来越响亮时，教皇鞠躬致意并以手掩面。
尽管约翰·保罗二世健康状况越来越糟， 可他在最后几年的教皇任期里仍进行了大量的活动。而且尽管当他向信徒挥手祝福时感觉越来越沉重，但那仍指向着更宽广的天地。

找了一篇张艺谋的生平阅历。
This is a Chinese name; the family name is Zhang.
Zhang Yimou (Simplified Chinese: 张艺谋; Traditional Chinese: 张艺谋; Pinyin: Zhāng Yìmóu) (born November 14, 1950) is a Chinese filmmaker and cinematographer who made his directorial debut in 1987 with the film Red Sorghum. He was born in the ancient Chinese city of Xi'an in Shaanxi Province.
An over-aged student who was accepted only after extensive appeals, Zhang graated from the Beijing Film Academy in 1982 along with compatriots Chen Kaige and Tian Zhuangzhuang. He then began working as a cinematographer for the Guangxi Film Studio. Zhang's first work, One and Eight (as director of photography), was made in 1984. Zhang then collaborated with Chen Kaige, the latter acting as director, to photograph one of the defining Chinese films of the 1980s, Yellow Earth (1984), later to be considered the inauguration film for the Chinese Fifth-Generation directors. Zhang continued to work with Chen for the latter's next film, The Big Parade (1985).
In 1985, Fourth Generation director Wu Tianming invited Zhang to Xi'an Film Studio, where the former was head, for his upcoming project Old Well. In return Zhang made Wu promised logistics support for his first directorial effort. Upon completion of the filming of Old Well as cinematographer and actor — winning Zhang the Tokyo International Film Festival's Best Actor — Zhang embarked on his directorial debut Red Sorghum. Red Sorghum (1987) catapulted Zhang into the forefront of the world's art directors, winning him critical praise and the Berlin Golden Bear. Its rich visual style of narrative storytelling came to be the hallmark of Zhang's early films. Judou (1989) and Raise the Red Lantern (1991) (both sponsored with foreign funds), which depict highly intense scenes through controlled, formalized color photography, were both nominees for Best Foreign Language Film at the Academy Awards.
The Story of Qiuju (1992) marked a significant change in direction for Zhang. Far less unrelenting with scenes of everyday humor, Zhang used non-professional actors together with his long-time collaborator Gong Li to achieve a neorealist effect in telling a tale of Chinese peasantry waddling through ineffective bureacracy. Upon completing this film, Zhang then made To Live (1994; Cannes Best Actor for Ge You), a film based on the acclaimed novel by Yu Hua, which is an epic framework about the resilience of the ordinary Chinese folks, personified by its two leads, amidst three generations of historical upheavals throughout the 20th century. Zhang completed this phase with the gangster film Shanghai Triad (1995).
Most of Zhang's films up to the mid-nineties featured the Chinese actress Gong Li. Gong and Zhang's romantic relationship ended ring proction of Shanghai Triad; the two have not collaborated since finishing that film. His next film, The Road Home (1999, featuring Zhang Ziyi in her film debut), is a simple throw-back narrative centering around a love story between an unidentified narrator's parents. As in The Story of Qiuju, Zhang returned to the neorealist habit of employing non-professional actors and location shooting, taking it further by sometimes even retaining the original names of actors in the script, for the highly effective companion piece in Not One Less (1999).
Zhang's succeeding major project was the ambitious wuxia drama Hero (2002), which follows after his second film in a series about modern Chinese city-life, Happy Times (2000). Hero was released in North America two years after its Chinese release and became one of the few foreign-language films to top the U.S. box office. It was followed by another martial arts epic, House of Flying Daggers (2004), which was a more modest international success.
One of Zhang's recurrent themes is a celebration of the resilience, even the stubbornness, of Chinese people in face of hardships and adversities, a theme which has occurred from To Live (1994) through to Not One Less (1999). His works are particularly noted for its sensitivity to color, as can be seen in his early trilogy (like Raise the Red Lantern) or in his wuxia films, Hero and House of Flying Daggers.
Zhang Yimou has also directed an acclaimed version of the music opera, Puccini's Turandot, at the Forbidden City, Beijing, with Zubin Mehta as conctor.

Mao Zedong -- A Great Man in Chinese History
一代伟人毛泽东
Mao Zedong, also well known as Chairman Mao, is a great man in human history. His dramatic personal life, his military talent, his artist poems, his political skill, his famous third world classification theory and his dictator's leading style in his years have influenced generations of people. In order to fully understand the modern history of China, it is indispensable to study the father of the People's Republic of China.
Mao Zedong was born on December 26, 1893, and died on September 9, 1976 at the age of 83. He was the head of the Chinese Communist Party for forty-one years since the historic ZhunYi meeting (1935) ring the Long March. He built the Red Army (Late, referred to the People's Liberation Army), took part in the anti-Japanese War and the civil war in China and finally chased the Guo Ming Dang to Taiwan and established the People's Republic of China. He was one of most influential people in the modern China history.
林肯
Lincoln, Abraham (1809-1865), 16th president of the United States (1861-1865) and one of the great men of history. A humane, farsighted statesman in his lifetime, he became a legend and a folk hero after his death. Lincoln rose from humble backwoods origins to become one of the great presidents of the United States. In his effort to preserve the Union ring the Civil War, he assumed more power than any preceding president. If necessity made him almost a dictator, by fervent conviction he was always a democrat. A superb politician, he persuaded the people with reasoned word and thoughtful deed to look to him for leadership. He had a lasting influence on American political institutions, most importantly in setting the precedent of vigorous executive action in time of national emergency.
In the American Civil War, his chief concern was the preservation of the Union from which the Confederate (Southern) slave states had seceded on his election. In 1863 he announced the freedom of the slaves with the Emancipation Proclamation. He was re-elected 1864 with victory for the North in sight, but was assassinated at the end of the war.

Born Marja Sklodowska, Marie Curie was born in Warsaw on November 7, 1867. Her father taught high school physics. In 1891 she went to Paris (where she changed her name to Marie) and enrolled in the Sorbonne. Two years later she passed the examination for her degree in physics, ranking in first place. She met Pierre Curie in 1894, and they married in 1895. Marie Curie was interested in the recent discoveries of radiation. Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen had discovered X rays in 1895, and in 1896 Antoine Henri Becquerel had discovered that the element uranium gives off similar invisible radiations. Curie thus began studying uranium radiations, and, using piezoelectric techniques devised by her husband, carefully measured the radiations in pitchblende, an ore containing uranium. When she found that the radiations from the ore were more intense than those from uranium itself, she realized that unknown elements, even more radioactive than uranium, must be present. Marie Curie was the first to use the term radioactive to describe elements that give off radiations as their nuclei break down

The Century’s Greatest Minds
Albert Einstein
本世纪最伟大的智者
阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦
The scientific touchstones of the modern age—— Bomb, space travel, electronics, Quantum physics——all bear his imprint.
原子弹、太空旅行、电子学、量子物理这些现代科学的代表都有赖于他的影响。
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.
爱因斯坦好象改变了所有的事情。他没发明什么“思维的实验”，但他将其提升到新高度：试想一对双胞胎，带着相同的手表；一个呆在家里，同时另一个在飞船中以近光速运动… …毫无疑问，自从1919年至今，爱因斯坦一直是世界最知名的科学家。
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.
在他出生的德国，他成为了仇恨的对象。作为一个犹太人，一个自由主义者，一个人道主义者，一个国际主义者，他招致了民族主义者和反犹太者的敌意。他的声音当时是有影响力的，广泛传播且被重视的，尤其在他到了美国之后。他用它去提倡以色列的犹太人复国主义，和平主义和建造原子弹（在他39年给罗斯福的密信中）。
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.
同时，像每个名人一样，他制造了一些传闻；在学校中数学不及格（八成不是真的）。他翻开书却发现一张没兑现的$1500的支票被当成书签扔在里面（或许他对日常的事务心不在焉）。他不在意自己的袜子，领口和拖鞋… …甚至他想不起自己最后定居的住址：普林斯顿莫色尔大街112号。
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.
1955年他死在那里。当他身体其余部分被火化后，他的大脑被保存起来，在一瓶甲醛中侵了几十年，现属于托马斯博士。没人费心去解剖弗洛伊德、斯特拉文斯基或乔伊斯的大脑，但在80年代，一些神经生物学家为搞清爱因斯坦的一些灰质大费周折，但最后一无所获。那只不过是一个大脑，它想象了一个可伸缩的第四维度，它推翻了以太学说，它使我们从绝对时空的束缚中解脱出来，它拒绝相信上帝在抛骰子。
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.
因为信奉了爱因斯坦，我们的世纪告别了原有的宇宙和上帝。新的宇宙和上帝不再那么刻板、僵硬，象牛顿的世界那样。爱因斯坦的上帝不是钟表匠而是自然定律的化身。这个上帝不控制我们的行动，更不对其加以判决。（“爱因斯坦，别再管上帝该干什么。”玻尔最终反驳道）这个上帝实际上似乎有些和善，心不在焉。在这个爱因斯坦的宇宙中，在这个我们生息繁衍的宇宙中，物理学没有了束缚，我们也没有了束缚。

1、J.K. Rowling is the pen name she uses as a writer. The J is for Joanne, her real first name, but she prefers to be called Jo.
Apparently, people only call her Joanne when they're angry with her. The K is made up. Her publisher asked her to write using a name with two initials, but she didn't have a middle name.
J.K.罗琳是她作为作家的笔名。“J”是乔安妮的缩写，她真名中的第一个名字，但她更愿被叫做乔。很显然，人们只有对她生气时才会叫她的全名。她的出版商叫她使用带有两个首字母的笔名，但她真名中没有中名，所以“K”是编造的。
Jo did a few different things before she struck upon the idea of writing children's books. She worked as a researcher and bilingual secretary for Amnesty International and as an English teacher in Portugal.
