马文·汉利许出身于纽约中产阶级犹太家庭,百老汇很多曲作家都出身这个阶层。进入合唱队后,他开始小有成就,成功创作了诸如 They Are Playing Our Song和the Goodbye Girl这样的演出。这些剧院作品有时令他的电影黯然失色。1973年他因《往日情怀》获得两个奥斯卡奖,因改编拉格泰姆音乐the Sting三度获奖。1977年,他为詹姆斯邦德电影《海底城》合作创作Nobody Does It Better。
A tribute has been paid to the British pioneer radio astronomy Bernard Lovell who's died at age of 98. He was the founder of the Jodrell Bank radio telescope observatory. He is also pivotal in the development of radar system during the Second World War. But in later life Sir Bernard deplored the misapplication of technology by governments and the military.
让我们向98岁去世的英国先锋射电天文学家伯纳德·洛伊耳致敬,他是焦德雷尔班克天文望远镜的创立者。他在二战雷达系统发展中起到关键作用,但后来暮年时,伯纳德爵士队政府和军队滥用科技表示谴责。
It is worrying that during recent years, science has so often become the scapegoat for the evils of the world. Technology has been misapplied and not science itself which forever remains search for truth.
令人担心的是,最近几年,科学常常成为世间邪恶的替罪羊,人们滥用科技,会永远探索真理的不是科学本身。
