English Blog:The Beauty of the Beast(野兽之美)

1661 views. 2009-6-3 10:30 |Individual Classification:feelings|

Note this, 'tis The beauty of the beast, not the beauty and the beast.
请打醒十二分精神,题目是野兽之美,非美女与野兽。
 
I needed to take the scientific overview course or some knowledges of the sort in college, though my major was English interpretation and translation. Ain't matter, I like science a lot. I remember the essay I wrote as the semester was almost drawing to a close, which was focused on biology.
Y' know, to complete an essay, one needs to read a lot of supplements. That's when I read the great book "The Beauty of the Beast"
The author is a female zoologist with a tone of pure humors. She commences the book with what is familiar to her--cockcroaches(小强,即蟑螂).
Cockroaches could be considered the live fossil in our modernized world today. For millions of years they have not changed much yet have sustained the greatest ability of escaping and power of survival at all adverse conditions. Super living creatures.
时已发展到现今高科技信息时代,小强可看作是远古发展而来的活化石。千万年来,其实小强这一活化石身体构造变化极少,然而,他们却保持着最强劲的逃跑能耐,以及在任何恶劣环境都能生存的本领。简直是超级生物。
 
The author continues to pin-point what the scientic world would always take for granted, one aspect of which being the male possessive hormone(雄性占有欲因荷尔蒙作用学术论)which explains why throughout the centuries and even up till the present moment we are living in, the male human beings  are not  royal to their females, why men are always two-timing, why men want more than a wife, that kind of rubbish. And all these stereotypes are thrown into the rubbish heap as the author begins to attack.
接着作者详细指出科学界(以及大众)一贯习已为然的学说--雄性生物越轨行为归咎于他们的荷尔蒙作用,怪不了他们那样的陈词滥调--男人为什么对女人不忠,男人为什么总越轨,男人为什么想享齐人之福这类垃圾学说。当作者笔锋对准以往的旧科学时,这类垃圾学说可谓找到了归属,扔到了垃圾堆了。
 
The author comes up with the theory that females are more likely to act two-timing.
作者提出的崭新理论是:女方犯出轨背叛的几率更大。
 
The she-squirrel, after mating with a he, would often run out of their honey home within the tree, and Mate, and still find others to mate, and mate again, with many many he-squirrels.
The she-squirrel wanted to see who would be the strongest guy for her.
 
Another fact is the world of bird, well, the bird possesses the higher level of intelligence, and the hard fact from them may tell the mind of female living creatures.
The bird's world is most like our one--The male go out to find food, to feed the family while the female stay behide taking care of the chicks. But don't think this the example of a sweet sweet family, the story has not come to an end yet.
When the male bird has gone out to find worms, the female would most of the time sing, letting out luring sounds so as to attract other male birds to come over to her nest. Y'know, this would often work. And when one other male bird comes near, the she-bird would mate with him, totally neglecting her babies.
Scientific facts have it that for example, in a nest of ten eggs, more than seven ones do not belong to the she-bird's husband, but those she has laid as a result of intercoursing with other fly-by male bird.
科学探秘发现,例如,数据显示,在一窝里是生了十个鸟蛋,有多于七个是不属于老公鸟的,而是老婆与勾引来的雄性鸟交配产下的。
So sad but true, most of the he-birds, as hubbies, do not and never know their wives have been two-timing, three-timing, or dozen-timing them, because, they are just birds.
可怜的老公鸟对这是全然不知的,继续按以前的节调生活,因为它们是鸟。
 
Well, I love animals, and I love to know all kinds of knowledges about them.
The infomation I have written down above as an essay is just for you, my friends, to know the fact--No matter man, woman, what we do, man or woman is more likely to do sth. There is no such thing like that, we are the same--there are bad guys, and the same case applies to women, also. So when you choose a boyfriend/girlfriend, a soulmate, a good friend,  it would be all the same. If he/she is bad, it got nothing to do with whether this living thing is a he or she, he/she is designed to be bad.
Daniel写下的这随笔,字里行间所传送的信息,只是想你,我的朋友,知道这世间的事实而已--男人,女人,我们的所作所为,男人或女人究竟会有什么什么的倾向--其实根本没有这样的废话。男人与女人是一样的,有衰男人,一样有衰女人。当你选择男朋友/女朋友时,知己,好朋友,不要带偏见(例如说男的就是花心,女的就是那么小气,这并不是什么权力或什么倾向,一直以来都是社会的陈词滥调,很多人按照这样的陈词滥调而作,反而认为正常而已)。若然这男的/女的是坏家伙的话,与这生物体是男性或女性无关,他/她本来就是坏家伙。
 
Daniel现在是翻译,若然可以将我分解的话,Daniel 有十分六是翻译,十分二是作家,十分一画家,还有十分一是生物学家。
 
Good day

I graduated from college last year. I always wanna express myself in English, and right now as an interpreter, I cannot help sometimes translating while speaking English, and in an playful, which is far far away from my work--that kind of translating. I am glad you have come here and commented on this blog.Thanks.

Hehe, you are right, whatever the pretext you want to give, if you have done wrong, you are wrong.
