issue183 (BaXia队作业)--第一篇，惶恐中

1、题目
As we acquire more knowledge, things do not become more comprehensible, but more complex and more mysterious.
2、提纲
      人类获得知识的过程可以概括为两个部分：1)部分原本未知的或者难以理解的现象被新的科学发现或理论所解释，从而使一些东西变得明晰；2)然而这些新的理论不可能涵盖所有方面，更为深入的研究必定引发更多新的问题，有些是前人从未探索过的领域……这两个阶段实质上是一个连续的过程，互相交替，构成一个循环的周期。
      例证：1)海豚的听觉研究，模范北美范文上蝙蝠的写的。
                  2)人类基因组计划，完成所有碱基测序，但后续工作问题仍然很多。
                  3)天体物理，“大爆炸”理论解释了一些现象，但谜团依旧。
3、正文

The period of acquiring knowledge can be artificially summarized as two phases: one phase is that certain phenomenon ever puzzled us now can be explained through new theories, that means the new theory tells us what is the phenomenon is, and how or why it happens, in the speaker’s word, which makes things more comprehensible; however, new exploration consequentially renders a large number of new questions, even bringing us to an brand-new world where human beings have never been, and then our mind may be full of numberless problems, that is the other phase, also in the speaker’s words, which lets things more complex and more mysterious.  The two phrases can be seen as a continuous process in Human’s exploration of the unknown in a whole view, and they alternate restlessly with the procession of knowing the world and ourselves.  So, in my view, the acquisition of knowledge brings about all three, comprehensibility, complexity and mystery.

One simple instance is studies of hearing.  From observation of dolphins’ underwater life, researchers learn that these animals are able to discern objects around them by a process called echolocation. Through these echoes, dolphins can use them to sense danger and enemies, to identify prospective males, and even to communicate with each other in social groups and in emotional expressions.  This knowledge acquired helps explain how dolphins survive. Yet at the same time this knowledge leaves the questions how complex the relations between hearing and their daily actions, even to human beings, how we use our sensation to perceive the outer world, which are still a mystery.

Also in genetics, as Human Genome Project finished, the great success in deciphering the whole genes of Human beings, nevertheless, is merely the beginning of a gigantic program to know ourselves on genetical level. Although the project offers a graphic book of all Human genes, which contains about 30,000 bases constitute our body, how these genes work and then be translated to proteins, what happen when some of them are mutant, how can we use them to cure diseases, such problems as these, still need scientists to research.

One more apparent example is the development of astrophysics.  As Hawking, Stephen W., the most talented theoretical physicists in the 21st century, instituted his outstanding theory “Big Bang”, which gives a comprehensible model that how our universe forms, how much energy it takes to create so many stars and planets, and how long it has existed, and so forth.  The theory provides some rational assumptions to explain phenomenon observed through telescopes, like the birth of a new solar system millions of light-year away from the Milky Way, the blast of supernova, the existence of black holes and so on.  Yet in the other hand, the universe is so immense that majority of substances in it might still unknown. It seems that the sky we look to remain mysterious as the ancients felt thousands years ago.

In sum, human beings are still walking on the way of exploring the unknown.  When knowledge we acquire accumulates day by day, perhaps something become easier to understand than before, and others go to the contrary direction, in other words, become more complex and mysterious.  However, each of these two phases, as the foregoing mentioned, is not the eventual state of our knowing to the world.  So, the most important thing is not that things become more simple or complex, but so far what we really acquired and how we use it as instruments to explore the unknown.

One simple instance is studies of hearing.  From observation of dolphins’ underwater life, researchers learn that these animals are able to discern objects around them by a process called echolocation. Through these echoes, dolphins can use them to sense danger and enemies, to identify prospective males, and even to communicate with each other in social groups and in emotional expressions.  This knowledge acquired helps explain how dolphins survive.

Also in genetics, as Human Genome Project finished, the great success in deciphering the whole genes of Human beings, nevertheless, is merely the beginning of a gigantic program to know ourselves on genetical（genetically） level. Although the project offers a graphic book of all Human genes, which contains about 30,000 bases constitute our body, how these genes work and then be translated to proteins, what happen when some of them are mutant, how can we use them to cure diseases, such problems as these, still need scientists to research.

One more apparent example is the development of astrophysics.  As Hawking, Stephen W., the most talented theoretical physicists in the 21st century, instituted his outstanding theory “Big Bang”,（例子举的和我很像，英雄所见略同） which gives a comprehensible model that how our universe forms, how much energy it takes to create so many stars and planets, and how long it has existed, and so forth.  The theory provides some rational assumptions to explain phenomenon observed through telescopes, like the birth of a new solar system millions of light-year away from the Milky Way, the blast of supernova, the existence of black holes and so on.  Yet in the other hand, the universe is so immense that majority of substances in it might still unknown.

总的来说,真是不错,我只挑出来一些小毛病(还有待商榷).....呵呵....
例子不错,尤其是HGP的例子,呵呵,我没想到,真是惭愧啊...

发觉大家的评价有点让我有点不好意思，估计是大家都没看过北美范文的关系。

猫猫、Dee还有Anny.Y.Wang，谢谢你们为我拍砖，等第二篇Issue写好，我会再修改的。

第一段可以简练一些，我觉得保留绿色字体部分意思就足够清楚了，嘿~

最后一句感觉有些多余，倒数第二句刚刚好~~~

太感谢了，本人讲话比较啰嗦，
正愁不知如何改写第一段，
你帮我缩句真是帮了大忙了，谢谢！
