Passage1 Tunnels under Thames
文章大意:英国有必要建造一条连接南北的地下管道,一个叫Trevithick的专家在没有前人的经验下领队动工,但是由于现有技术的局限性导致终止了工程。之后,另一个叫Brunel的专家也尝试建造,但是由于他的设计催在空气污染等问题,并且他在建造过程中缺少资金,最后这个隧道停工了。之后,基于这些经验,描述了泰晤士河下地下管道建设的现状。
TheTunnel Under the Thames
At the beginning of the 19th century, theport of London was the busiest in the world. Cargoes that had traveledthousands of miles, and survived all the hazards of the sea, piled up on thewharves of Rotherhithe—only for their owners to discoverthat the slowest, most frustrating portion of their journey often lay ahead ofthem. Consignments intended for the southern (and most heavily populated) partsof Britain had to be heaved onto creaking ox carts and hauled through thedocklands and across London Bridge, which had been built in the 12th centuryand was as cramped and impractical as its early date implied. By 1820, it hadbecome the center of the world’s largest traffic jam.
It was a situation intolerable to a citywith London ’s pride, and it was clear that if privateenterprise could build another crossing closer to the docks, there would be atidy profit to be made in tolls. Another bridge was out of the question—it would deny sailing ships access to the Pool of London—and ambitious men turned their thoughts to driving a tunnel beneath theThames instead. This was not such an obvious idea as it might appear. Althoughdemand for coal was growing fast as the industrial revolution hit high gear,working methods remained primitive. Tunnels were dug by men wielding picks insputtering candlelight.
No engineers had tunneled under a majorriver, and the Thames was an especially tricky river. To the north, London wasbuilt on a solid bed of clay, ideal tunneling material. To the south and east,however, lay deeper strata of water-bearing sand, gravel and oozing quicksand,all broken up by layers of gravel, silt, petrified trees and the debris ofancient oyster beds. The ground was semi-liquid, and at depth it became highlypressurized, threatening to burst into any construction site.
The chief engineer of this first tunnelproject was a muscular giant named Richard Trevithick, a self-educated man whohad progressed from youthful fame as a Cornish wrestler by displaying adazzling talent for invention. Trevithick had harnessed steam power to drivethe first self-propelled engine to run on rails and designed the world ’s first high-pressure steam engine. He was convinced that a tunnel could behacked out under the Thames relatively easily. It did not take long for him torealize he was wrong. Trevithick’s men made fine progress whiletunneling through London clay, but once they got under the Thames they hadconstant trouble. Their pilot tunnel was just five feet high and three feetwide, and sewage-laden water seeped in from the river, thirty feet above theirheads, at the rate of 20 gallons a minute. Within this narrow space threeminers worked on their knees, one hewing at the face with his pick, anotherclearing away the sodden earth, the third shoring up the drift with timbers.Working conditions during the six-hour shifts were appalling; the men weresoaked with sweat and river water, no one could stand or stretch, and thetunnel was so poorly ventilated that the fetid air sometimes extinguished thecandles.
At that time, the only machines used inmines were pumps. It took a man of genius to recognize that a different sort ofmachine was needed —a machine that could both preventthe roof and walls from collapsing and hold back any quicksand or water at thetunnel face. This man was Marc Brunel, an emigré who had fled his nativeFrance during the Revolution and quickly made a name for himself as one of themost prominent engineers in Britain. Not long after the failure of the ThamesArchway Company, Brunel happened to be wandering through the Royal Dockyard atChatham when he noticed a rotten piece of ship’s timber lying on the quay.Examining the wood through a magnifying glass, he observed that it had beeninfested with the dreaded teredo, or shipworm, whose rasping jaws can riddle a woodenship with holes. As it burrows, this ‘worm’ (it is actually a mollusk) shoves pulped wood into its mouth anddigests it, excreting a hard, brittle residue that lines the tunnel it hasexcavated and renders it safe from predators.
From then on the project proved ever moredifficult. Brunel ’s machine could cope with thesodden mud and dry gravel that his miners encountered nearly as well as clay,but he ran short of funds. The economies that followed left the shaft waspoorly drained and ventilated, and miners were poisoned by the polluted riverwater or afflicted by illnesses ranging from diarrhea and constant headaches totemporary blindness. Most of Brunel’s workers complained of feelingsuffocated and tormented by temperatures that could plunge or rise by as muchas 30 degrees Fahrenheit within an hour. One miner died of disease.
Brunel ’s triumph was only partial. Onceagain his company’s funds were at a low ebb, and the tens ofthousands of penny-a-head visitors hardly paid the interest on the governmentloan There was never enough to complete the approaches to the tunnel and makeit accessible to horse-drawn vehicles, as intended. Instead, the passagewayswere filled with souvenir-sellers by day and by the city’s homeless at night. For a penny toll, vagrants could bed down under Brunel’s arches in what became known as the Hades Hotel.
It was only when the underground railwaycame to London in the 1860s that the Thames Tunnel achieved a measure of realusefulness. Purchased by the East London Railway in 1869, it was found to be insuch excellent condition that it was immediately be pressed into servicecarrying steam-driven trains —at first along the Brighton lineand later from Wapping to New Cross. The tunnel became, and remains, part ofthe London Underground network. It is a tribute to Trevithick and Brunel—and mute testimony to the difficulties of tunneling in London—that it remained the only subway line so far to the east until the openingof the Jubilee Line Extension in 1999.

大作文:
Scientific research should be carried out and controlled by governments rather than private companies. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
建议思路:同意
政府控制:
1. 科学研究方向更能符合国家的经济发展需求。国家可以根据大数据确定国民和国家更需要哪方面的研究,比如医疗,生活等。不至于造成过多的浪费。
2. 环境安全更有保障。政府同意管控科学研究可以避免很多非法的污染,从而减少对环境的破坏
私人公司搞研究:
有人认为符合公司发展方向的研究公司也可以自主研究,不过最好还是在政府的同意监管下进行,这样有利于保障研究的合法性和安全性。
