Columbus's egg的具體典故是什么?

哥倫布立蛋在一次宴會(huì)一位客人對(duì)哥倫布說(shuō):發(fā)現(xiàn)了陸有什么了不起,新大陸只不過(guò)是客觀的存在物,剛巧被你撞上了!

哥倫布沒(méi)有同他爭(zhēng)論,而是拿出一只雞蛋讓它立在光滑的桌面上。

這位客人試來(lái)試去,無(wú)論如何也不能把雞蛋立起來(lái),終于無(wú)能為力地住手了。

這時(shí),只見(jiàn)哥倫布拿起雞蛋猛地往桌面上一磕,下面的蛋殼破了,但雞蛋穩(wěn)穩(wěn)地立在了桌面上。之后,哥倫布說(shuō)了一句頗富哲理的話(huà):“不破不立也是一種客觀存在,但就是有人發(fā)現(xiàn)不了!”

啟示:

我們當(dāng)中的許多人不是也成天在抱怨嘲笑別人這也不行,那也不對(duì)。而當(dāng)讓他自己去干時(shí),結(jié)果他什么也干不了,傳統(tǒng)的思維已成為一種定勢(shì),讓他在自縛的繭中無(wú)力自拔。當(dāng)一種新生事物來(lái)臨時(shí),他除了嘲笑,懷疑之外便是無(wú)動(dòng)于衷,無(wú)能為力。

我查到的,嘿嘿 追問(wèn)
按你這么說(shuō),那請(qǐng)問(wèn)下面這個(gè)句子怎么翻譯呢?

To swim in winter, like Columbus' egg, is a hard job,especially at the beginning.
追答
我覺(jué)得翻譯很好翻譯,這樣:冬泳就像哥倫布立蛋,是一個(gè)困難的事情,尤其在開(kāi)始。

要說(shuō)怎么理解,應(yīng)該是:冬泳就像哥倫布立蛋,在你沒(méi)有做到之前,大家都覺(jué)得做不到,你必須沖破思維定勢(shì),堅(jiān)持下去,最后可以做到大家做不到的事情。 理解有限啊,呵呵
來(lái)自:求助得到的回答 你對(duì)這個(gè)回答的評(píng)價(jià)是?

 1492年,哥倫布了新大陸。從海上回來(lái)成了西班牙心目中的英雄。國(guó)王和王后也把他當(dāng)作上賓,封海軍上將。可是有些貴族瞧不起他,他們用鼻子一哼,說(shuō):“哼,這有什么稀罕?只要坐船出海,誰(shuí)都會(huì)到那塊陸地的!

  在一次宴會(huì)上,哥倫布又聽(tīng)見(jiàn)有人在譏笑他了。“上帝創(chuàng)造世界的時(shí)候,不是就創(chuàng)造了海西邊的那塊陸地了嗎?發(fā)現(xiàn),哼,又算得了什么!”哥倫布聽(tīng)了,沉默了好一會(huì)兒,忽然從盤(pán)子里拿個(gè)雞蛋,站了起來(lái),提出一個(gè)古怪的問(wèn)題:“女士們,先生們,誰(shuí)能把這個(gè)雞蛋豎起來(lái)?”

  雞蛋從這個(gè)人手上傳到那個(gè)人手上,大家都把雞蛋扶直了,可是一放手,雞蛋立刻倒 了。最后,雞蛋回到哥倫布手上,滿(mǎn)屋子鴉雀無(wú)聲,大家都要看他怎樣把雞蛋豎起來(lái)。

  哥倫布不慌不忙,把雞蛋的一頭在桌上輕輕一敲,敲破了一點(diǎn)兒殼,雞蛋就穩(wěn)穩(wěn)地直立在桌子上了。

  “這有什么稀罕?”賓客們又譏笑起哥倫布來(lái)了。

  “本來(lái)就沒(méi)有什么可稀罕的,”哥倫布說(shuō),“可是你們?yōu)槭裁醋霾坏侥??p>

  賓客們一個(gè)個(gè)強(qiáng)詞奪理:“雞蛋都破了,那算什么呢?”

  哥倫布卻繼續(xù)保持不以為然的態(tài)度:“我在剛開(kāi)始定條件時(shí),曾有說(shuō)過(guò)不允許把雞蛋敲破?”

  哥倫布離席而去時(shí)還留下了一句令人回味的話(huà):“雖然是很簡(jiǎn)單的游戲,你們卻沒(méi)有一個(gè)人會(huì)做;知道怎么做之后,大家卻都說(shuō)太簡(jiǎn)單了!”

  賓客們一時(shí)啞口無(wú)言。

  有時(shí)費(fèi)盡唇舌,也不如借一個(gè)豎雞蛋一樣簡(jiǎn)單的游戲能輕易化解爭(zhēng)執(zhí)?芍^四兩撥千斤,輕輕一揮就能化解敵人的攻勢(shì)載形。

高一英語(yǔ)閱讀一篇

When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means rich coast” in Spanish. Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export. Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors. Education is very important to the Costa Ricans. Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to separate (單獨(dú)的) schools. Classes begin in March and end in November. The other three months of the year are harvest time and the children have to help their parents to pick coffee beans.56. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?A. How Columbus found Costa Rica.B. How Costa Rica got its name.C. What the Costa Ricans wore. D. What language the Costa Ricans spoke.57. The Costa Ricans may NOT paint their houses ______.A. pink and red B. grey and blackC. blue and green D. yellow and orange58. In Costa Rica, boys and girls between seven and fourteen ______.A. must go to school B. study in the same schoolC. do not have to go to school at allD. can choose to stop schooling at any time59. From December to February, school children in Costa Rica ______.A. have lessons every dayB. have their examinationsC. help their parents pick coffee beansD. help their parents decorate their houses 60. This passage is mainly about ______.A. Christopher Columbus B. Costa Rica C. some products from Costa Rica D. the education of Costa RicaB ★ Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri?beri. He was going there to try and find a cure. At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (細(xì)菌) caused beri?鄄beri. He raised some chickens. He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice (精煉米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (維生). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food. Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.61. The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.A. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitaminC. a kind of germ D. a kind of rice62. Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______.A. spend his holidayB. find ways to grow better crops C. do some research about the islandD. help the Javanese with their illness63. Why did Christian Eijkman raise some chickens?A. To eat them. B. To carry out his experiments.C. To give the Javanese a surprise. D. To make money by selling them.64. If a person doesn’t get enough vitamins in his diet, he’d better ______.A. eat more rice B. eat more meatC. eat some chicken D. eat vitamin pills65. We can learn from the passage that ______.A. beri?鄄beri was caused by chickensB. the Javanese didn’t like vitaminsC. Christian Eijkman’s experiment was successfulD. the Javanese’s disease was caused by a kind of germC ★★ America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably. For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!66. The writer of this passage must be ______.A. an American B. a ChineseC. a professor D. a student67. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.68. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.A. warmly welcomed at the airport B. offered a ride to his homeC. treated hospitably at his home D. treated to dinner in a restaurant69. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______. A. strict with time B. serious with timeC. careful with time D. willing to spend time70. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”. A. Friendships between Chinese B. Friendships between AmericansC. Americans’ hospitality D. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendshipsD ★★★ The other day I heard a few local musicians talking: “I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can’t even understand a bit of music.” “I’m never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.” But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play. I’m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.” I’ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are. Attitudes are important. Whether they’re positive or negative, they’re rubbing off on you. If you’re around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (責(zé)怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So it’s time to take a look at the people you call “friends”. This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (標(biāo)準(zhǔn)) for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard. Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work you’re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.71. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A.

Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (撲), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater. Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free. Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (傷口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers. “This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report. He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”. Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria (細(xì)菌) on the teeth of the crocodile.56.

It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses. Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers. Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month. Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落傘)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (職業(yè)) since it was first published in nineteen seventy. Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.61. What is the passage mainly about?A. Finding a job. B. College students’ part-time jobs.C. Craigslist Web site. D.

One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words. However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探討它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them. And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next? English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看見(jiàn)的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.71. According to the passage ______. A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different thingsB. there should be egg in an eggplantC. pineapples are the apples on the pine treeD. boxing rings should be round72.

Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are ______.A. clever B. crazy C. lazy D. dull56-60 BBCDB 61-65 ABDCC 66-70 BDCBD 71-75 ABCDA 追問(wèn)
