The Life Of Isaac Newton牛顿小传

作者:stephen    文章来源:方向标英语网    点击数:    更新时间:2010-4-1 【我来说两句


It remained now for some great mathematical mind to pull this work all together and put it into universal laws.
那时候仍然存在着的是伟大的数学家要把这个工作组合起来加以改进,并且用宇宙律表达出来。
At the age of twenty-three Isaac Newton moved from Cambridge to his country home. There his thoughts turned to the
  problems of motion.
廿三岁时牛顿从剑桥搬回乡下的家,在那里他的思想转向于运动的问题。
As Newton himself later told the story, he was sitting in the garden one evening, thinking, when he noticed a falling
  apple.
就如后来牛顿自己谈到这个故事,(他说)有一天晚上他坐在花园里沉思着,这时他注意到一个掉落的苹果。
The apple set him to wondering about the movement of falling things.
这个苹果使他想知道落体的运动。
It occurred to him that the force which caused fruit to fall from trees worked quite as well at greater distances from
  the center of the earth -- on top of buildings or even on top of mountains.
他想到那股使苹果从树上掉下来的力量在离开地心较远的距离同样有作用 -- 如在建筑物的顶上或在山顶上。
Perhaps, thought Newton, this same force reached out much farther still, even to the moon.
牛顿认为也许同样这股力量可以达到更远,甚至达到月球。
Was it this force which kept the moon going around the earth? And if so, could not the same force explain the
 movements of the planets around the sun?
是否是这股力量使月球绕着地球旋转呢?如果是的话,那么同样这股力量能不能解释行星绕着太阳的运动呢?
Newton began to search for a mathematical expression of his idea.
牛顿开始探索用数学来表达他的观念。
In 1669 Newton became professor of mathematics at Cambridge.
一六六九年牛顿成为剑桥大学的数学教授。
Three years later he joined the Royal Society.
三年之后他加入皇家学会。
The Royal Society was a group of learned men from all branches of science.
皇家学会是由一群来自各种科学方面有学问的人士所组成的。
Before long Newton began again to study the problems of motion.
不久,牛顿又开始研究运动问题。
He had already discovered the essential ideas, but it still remained for him to solve the difficult mathematical
 problems.
他已经发现了基本的概念,但仍然存在着的是他要解决艰难的数学问题。
