a bk that led t the banning f DDT
1874年，德国Zeidler合成了DDT。1936～1939年，瑞士化学家保罗·赫尔曼·穆勒（Paul Hermann Müller，1899～1965）发现了DDT的杀虫效能和使用价值，1943年传播国外，1944正式发表。DDT是第一个重要的有机氯杀虫剂，在第二次世界大战后一段时间内，大量应用于农业和卫生保健，起过很大的作用，瑞士化学家保罗·赫尔曼·穆勒Müller因此获得1948年的诺贝尔医学奖。
Fr dzens f years, human beings have paid a heavy price fr it : a large number f birds have died ut ; Germ cells have been damaged ; Varius chrnic diseases have appeared… 几十年来，人类为此付出了沉重的代价：大量鸟类灭绝，生殖细胞受损，出现各种慢性疾病……
Pesticides were yesterday’s gspel, but tday’s disaster.

1 There was a strange stillness. The birds, fr example - where bad they gne? Many peple spke f them, puzzled and disturbed. The feeding statins in the backyards were deserted. The few birds seen anywhere were mribund; they trembled vilently and culd nt fly: It was a spring withut vices. “一片古怪的寂静笼罩着这里。小鸟都飞到哪里去了?许多人淡论着,茫然困惑，惴惴不安。后院的饲养站已经鼓遗弃，为数不多的几只鸟也奄奄一息;它们浑身打战，无法飞翔。这是一个寂静的春天。
1 On the mrnings that bad nce thrbbed with the dauwn chrus f rbins, catbirds, dves, jays, turens, and scres f ther bird vices there was nw n sund; nly silence lay ver the fields and wds and marsh.原本喧闹的情晨，再也没有了知更鸟，北美猫鸟，鸽子、松鸦、鹬鸡的奏鸣曲以及其他小鸟的鸣叫声;只留下一片寂静，笼罩在田野、树林和沼泽的上空。
2 Rachel Carsn was a scientist by prfessin, but these lines frm the pening chapter f her 1962 bk Silent Spring,“A Fable fr Tmrrw", shw her talent as a writer. By imagining a wrld withut birds, she aimed t alert nt nly the scientific cmmunity but als the general public t the damaging effects f human activity n natural ecsystems - in particular, t the harmful use f pesticides, such as DDT. 蕾切尔.卡森本是一位科学家，但是1962年，她在《寂静的春天》一书的开篇章节“明天的寓言”中的这段描写，展现了她作为作家的天赋。通过想象一个没有鸟儿的世界，她想要警告科学界，提醒公众，人类活动已经对自然界生态系统造成了破坏性的后果，尤其是使用DDT之类的杀虫剂给自然界带来了严重的危害。
2 She believed that the chemical industry was knwingly causing harm t plants, animals and even humans, and wished t see pesticides used in a mre respnsible, limited and carefully mnitred way.她认为化学工业正在明目张胆地对动植物,甚至对人类本身造成伤害，她希望人们在使用杀虫剂时能够更加负责、节制，并且严加监管。
3 Carsn urged pcple t make themselves aware f the facts and d smething abut the situatin. Silent Spring cntains a lt f scientific research and case studies. The bk details the gypsy mth eradicatin prgramme, which killed birds, in additin t gypsy mths. Anther case study was the fire-ant prgramme that killed cws, but nt fire ants. 卡森敦促人们认清事实,并且为此做出努力。《寂静的春天》中含有大量的科学研究和真实案例。在灭除舞毒蛾项目这一-案例中，她细致讲述了人们在消灭舞毒蛾的同时，也杀死了鸟类;另一个案例则是在开展消灭火蚁计划时，人们杀死的是奶牛，而非火蚁。
3The bk als gives dzens f ther examples f eradicatin prgrammes that did nthing t reduce the prblems they were riginally designed t slve. The 50 r s pages at the end f the bk list Carsn's surces, shwing hw thrugh and precise she was as a scientist.书中还讲了几十个其他灭除计划的案例，都未能像预期那样解决问题。这本书最后的五十几页列出了卡森的资料来源，显示出她作为一名科学家的周密和严谨。
4 Carsn's message was very alarming, causing a great increase in envirnmental awareness. Its impact was immediate and far reaching: the use f DDT was banned and the Envirnmental Prtectin Agency (EPA) was established in the US. Silent Spring was therefre regarded as a milestne in the launch f the green mvement in the Western wrld. It als earned Carsn a psthumus Presidential Medal f Freedm and put her face n the 17-cent US stamp.卡森所述的事实让人们十分担忧，大大提升了人们保护环境的意识。这本书的效果立竿见影，并且影响深远:DDT被禁用;环境保护署也在美国成立。《寂静的春天》因此被视为西方发起绿色运动的里程碑，这使作者在去世后获得了“总统自由勋章”的荣誉，美国17美分的邮票上也印上了她的头像。
5 Silent Spring was nt, hwever, received psitively by everyne. Thugh Carsn's research was strng and was supprted by mst scientists wh reviewed her wrk, the bk quickly became a target fr critics in the pesticide industry. They said that Carsn did nt understand the science behind her arguments because she was a marine bilgist rather than a chemist. 但并不是所有人都支持《寂静的春天》。虽然卡森的研究很有说服力，而且得到多数审阅过这本书的科学家的支持，但是这本书很快成为了杀虫剂行业批判的对象。他们说卡森并不理解她论证背后的科学原理,因为她是一位海洋生物学家，而非化学家。
5 Sme als said that her wrk was mre emtinal than scientific. These were attempts t damage Carsn's reputatin and stp her wrk frm influencing public plicy, but she remained determined t stand by her research. Carsn appeared in public and n televisin t defend her daims - and tday, mre than 50 years after it was published, the vice f Silent Spring is still ringing lud and clear.还有一些人说她的作品过于情感化，科学性并不强。他们想要通过破坏卡森的名声来削减她的作品对公共政策的影响，但卡森仍然坚持自己的研究，在公众面前、在电视节目中捍卫自己的观点。时至今日，《寂静的春天》已经出版五十多年了，但它的影响力依旧深远绵长。
6 Persnally, I enjy Carsn's bk. She made a crucial but ptentially difficult-t-understand subject interesting and accessible t millins f peple. This is nt s much because f the quality f her arguments, strng thugh they are, but because f the beauty and elegance f her writing. 而我个人也十分喜欢卡森的书。她把一个至关重要但十分复杂的问题用简单有趣的方式传达给了数百万人。这并不都是因为她书中高质量的论点是多么强有力，而是因为她美丽和高雅的文笔让读者喜欢。
6 Her bk nt nly changed the wrld; half a century later it remains a bk that deserves t be reread tday, s that we can nce again feel urselves warm t the fire f its passinate message. Fr unless we d listen t Rachel Carsn's warming, ne day we may wake up t the strange and quiet hrrr f anther silent spring.她的书不仅在当时改变了世界，就是在半个世纪后的今天，它仍然值得人们重新阅读，以感受她充满感情的文字带给我们如火焰般的温暖。因为如果我们不听从卡森的劝告，可能有-天在我们醒来之后，真的会面对一个古怪而又相当恐怖的寂静的春天。
There was a strange stillness. The birds, fr example — where had they gne? Many peple spke f them, puzzled and disturbed.
一片古怪的寂静笼罩着这里。小鸟都飞到哪里去了？许多人谈论着，茫然困惑惴惴不安。
