Peters’ signature shot is a butterfly “take-off”, showing the multiple wing-beats of one butterfly in one frame as it lifts off from a flower. How does he capture it? Technology helps. A typical digital SLR camera shoots 20 frames a second. He uses a high-speed OM System which shoots 120 frames a second.
彼得斯的招牌镜头是蝴蝶“起飞”,在一帧画面中展现一只蝴蝶从花朵上起飞时的多次振翅。他是如何拍到的?技术帮了忙。一台普通的数码单反相机每秒拍摄20帧,而他使用的是每秒可拍120帧的高速OM System相机。
That makes it sound easy, and artificial, but Peters insists it is still a massive challenge. He typically takes between 10,000 and 20,000 shots to get one butterfly take-off sequence in focus. At such high shutter speeds, the depth of field is tiny, and as butterflies do not fly in a straight line they swiftly flutter out of focus. As well as thousands of attempts, it takes patience and fieldcraft to anticipate a butterfly’s likely flight-line — and catch it — in focus.
这听起来既简单又人为,但彼得斯坚称这仍是一项巨大的挑战。他通常要拍一万到两万张照片,才能得到一组对焦清晰的蝴蝶起飞序列。在如此高的快门速度下,景深非常小,而且蝴蝶并不沿直线飞行,很快就会扑腾着飞出焦点。除了成千上万次的尝试,还需要耐心和野外经验来预判蝴蝶可能的飞行路线——并在焦点内捕捉到它。
Psychologists have been interested in this [question] for decades, not least because people’s widespread [reluctance] to ask for help has led to some high-profile failures.

The weather in Texas may have cooled since the recent extreme heat, but the temperature will be high at the State Board of Education meeting in Austin this month as officials debate how climate change is taught in Texas schools.
自最近的极端高温以来,得克萨斯州的天气或许已经转凉,但本月在奥斯汀召开的州教育委员会会议上气氛将会十分火热,因为官员们将辩论得州学校该如何讲授气候变化。
A study last year by the National Center for Science Education, a non-profit group of scientists and teachers, looking at how state public schools across the country address climate change in science classes, gave barely half of US states a grade B+ or higher.
由科学家和教师组成的非营利团体——美国国家科学教育中心去年开展了一项研究,考察全国各州公立学校如何在科学课上讲授气候变化,结果只有勉强一半的州获得了B+或更高的评级。
Even if a state is considered a high performer in its science standards, “that does not mean it will be taught”, he says.
他说,即便一个州的科学标准被认为表现出色,“那也不意味着这些内容就会被讲授”。
Another issue is that, while climate change is well integrated into some subjects and at some ages — such as earth and space sciences in high schools — it is not as well represented in curricula for younger children and in subjects that are more widely taught, such as biology and chemistry.
另一个问题是,虽然气候变化已很好地融入了某些学科和某些年龄段的教学——例如高中的地球与空间科学——但在低龄儿童的课程以及生物、化学等更普遍开设的学科中,它的体现却没有那么充分。

World War II was the watershed event for higher education in modern Western societies.
第二次世界大战是现代西方社会高等教育的分水岭事件。
(47) And the demand that rose in those societies for entry to higher education extended to groups and social classes that had not thought of attending a university before the war.
(47) 而且,这些社会中兴起的接受高等教育的需求扩展到了战前从未想过上大学的群体和社会阶层。
These demands resulted in a very rapid expansion of the systems of higher education, beginning in the 1960s and developing very rapidly (though unevenly) during the 1970s and 1980s.
这些需求导致高等教育体系急剧扩张,这种扩张始于20世纪60年代,并在70年代和80年代迅速(尽管不均衡地)发展。
The growth of higher education manifests itself in at least three quite different ways, and these in turn have given rise to different sets of problems.
高等教育的增长至少表现为三种截然不同的方式,而这些方式又相应地引发了不同的问题。
There was first the rate of growth: (48) in many countries of Western Europe, the numbers of students in higher education doubled within five-year periods during the 1960s and doubled again in seven, eight, or 10 years by the middle of the 1970s.
首先是增长速度:(48) 在许多西欧国家,20世纪60年代高等教育的学生人数在五年内翻了一番,到70年代中期又在七年、八年或十年内再次翻番。
And third, growth was reflected in changes in the proportion of the relevant age group enrolled in institutions of higher education.
第三,增长体现在相应年龄组中进入高等院校就读者所占比例的变化上。
For example, a high growth rate placed great strains on the existing structures of governance, of administration, and above all of socialization.
例如,高增长率给现有的治理结构、行政结构,尤其是社会化结构带来了巨大压力。
(50) High growth rates increased the chances for academic innovation; they also weakened the forms and processes by which teachers and students are admitted into a community of scholars during periods of stability or slow growth.
(50) 高增长率增加了学术创新的机会;但也削弱了在稳定或缓慢增长时期教师和学生得以进入学者共同体的形式和过程。

然而,恰恰主要是在这一治理加强的时期,首席执行官的薪酬一直居高且不断上涨。

Grade inflation — the gradual increase in average GPAs (grade-point averages) over the past few decades — is often considered a product of a consumer era in higher education, in which students are treated like customers to be pleased.

Indeed, grade forgiveness is just another way that universities are responding to consumers’ expectations for higher education.

To put it another way: How can we make sure that the thinking of intelligent machines reflects humanity’s highest values?
换句话说:我们如何确保智能机器的思维体现人类的最高价值观?
There is a better way to win arguments. Imagine that you favor increasing the minimum wage in our state, and I do not. If you yell, “Yes,” and I yell, “No,” neither of us learns anything. We neither understand nor respect each other, and we have no basis for compromise or cooperation. In contrast, suppose you give a reasonable argument: that full-time workers should not have to live in poverty. Then I counter with another reasonable argument: that a higher minimum wage will force businesses to employ fewer people for less time. Now we can understand each other’s positions and recognize our shared values, since we both care about needy workers.
有一种更好的方式来赢得争论。设想你赞成提高我们州的最低工资,而我不赞成。如果你大喊“赞成”,我大喊“反对”,我们谁都学不到任何东西。我们既不理解也不尊重对方,也没有妥协或合作的基础。相反,假设你给出一个合理的论证:全职工人不应该生活在贫困之中。然后我用另一个合理的论证来反驳:更高的最低工资会迫使企业雇用更少的人、缩短雇用时间。这样我们就能理解彼此的立场,并认识到我们共同的价值观,因为我们都关心贫困的工人。
And vice versa: High sympathy can substitute for low guilt.

根据即将发表在《心理科学》杂志上的一篇论文那令人沮丧的开头,这造成了“一个悖论”:招收第一代大学生,却眼看着他们中的许多人失败,这意味着高等教育“一直在复制并扩大而非缩小”基于社会阶层的成就差距。
