Recording 1.

录音一。

Dating from as far back as the 12th century, they are claimed to be the rarest historic buildings in Western Europe.

追溯到12世纪，它们据称是西欧最稀有的历史建筑。

These buildings offer vital insights into Scandinavia's Viking past.

这些建筑提供了对斯堪的纳维亚维京过去的深刻见解。

But now, with only 30 wooden churches remaining and their condition deteriorating, experts are working to preserve the structures for future generations.

但现在，随着仅存30座木制教堂且状况恶化，专家们正努力为子孙后代保存这些结构。

Some of these spectacular churches are no more than small buildings, barely 4 metres wide and 6 metres tall.

其中一些壮观的教堂只不过是小建筑，宽度仅4米，高度仅6米。

Others are much larger structures that soar up to 40 metres into the cold air.

其他则是大得多的建筑，高耸入寒冷的空气中，高达40米。

Most consist of timber frames that rest on stone blocks.

大多数由木框架构成，木框架放置在石块上。

This means that they have no foundations.

这意味着它们没有地基。

Although many of the churches appear from the outside to be complex structures, they normally feature only a single storey, but numerous different roof levels.

尽管许多教堂从外观上看是复杂的结构，但它们通常只有一层，但有许多不同的屋顶层次。

Staff from the Norwegian government have carried out conservation work on 10 of the churches over the past two years.

挪威政府工作人员在过去两年中对其中10座教堂进行了保护工作。

Most of these churches date from between the 12th and 14th centuries.

这些教堂大多建于12世纪至14世纪之间。

Other churches were conserved in previous years.

其他教堂在往年得到了保护。

So far, specialists have worked to add preservative materials to the churches' exteriors.

到目前为止，专家们致力于在教堂外部添加防腐材料。

They also replaced rotting roofs and halted the sinking of the churches into the ground.

他们还替换了腐烂的屋顶，并阻止了教堂沉入地面。

In two cases, huge machines had been used to lift the buildings up to 30 centimetres into the air.

在两起案例中，使用了巨型机器将建筑提升到空中高达30厘米。

This was accomplished so that the team could examine and repair the churches' original medieval stone blocks.

这样做是为了团队能够检查和修复教堂原有的中世纪石块。

The team plans to return to around a dozen of the buildings to assess progress and consider further action.

团队计划返回约十二座建筑，以评估进展并考虑进一步行动。

The earliest three-standing wooden church was probably built in Norway in around 1080.

最早的三座现存木制教堂可能建于1080年左右的挪威。

However, the largest known wooden churches were built from the 1130s onwards.

然而，已知最大的木制教堂建于1130年代以后。

This period was one of inter-elite rivalry, in which nobles sought to increase their influence by funding the construction of churches and other buildings.

这个时期是精英间竞争的时期，贵族们通过资助教堂和其他建筑的建设来寻求增加影响力。

The reason for constructing the buildings from wood is probably that ideally proportioned, straight and slender timber was available in large quantities in Scandinavia's vast pine forests.

用木材建造这些建筑的原因可能是斯堪的纳维亚广阔的松林中大量提供了比例理想、笔直纤细的木材。

As wood was so plentiful, it was cheaper to use than the stone used in the buildings of other European cultures.

由于木材如此丰富，它比其他欧洲文化建筑中使用的石头更便宜。

The area's shipbuilding tradition, partly established by the Vikings, also meant that sophisticated carpentry was a major aspect of the local culture.

该地区的造船传统，部分由维京人建立，也意味着精细木工是当地文化的主要方面。

The complex style of the medieval wooden church carvings and the skills used to make them almost certainly derive from the ancient Viking tradition.

中世纪木制教堂雕刻的复杂风格和制作技能几乎肯定源于古老的维京传统。

In last week's lecture, we discussed the characteristics of the newly born offspring of several mammals.

在上周的讲座中，我们讨论了几种哺乳动物新生后代的特征。

You probably remember that human infants are less developed physically than other mammals of the same age.

你可能记得，人类婴儿在身体发育上不如同龄的其他哺乳动物。

But in today's lecture, we'll look at three very interesting studies that hint at the surprising abilities of human babies.

但在今天的讲座中，我们将看三项非常有趣的研究，这些研究暗示了人类婴儿的惊人能力。

In the first study, three-year-olds watched two videos shown side by side, each featuring a different researcher, one of whom they'd met once, two years earlier.

在第一项研究中，三岁儿童观看了并排显示的两个视频，每个视频展示不同的研究人员，其中一位他们在两年前见过一次。

The children spent longer watching the video showing the researcher they hadn't met.

孩子们花了更长时间观看展示他们未见过的研究人员的视频。

This is consistent with young children's usual tendency to look longer at things that aren't familiar.

这与幼儿通常倾向于更长时间观看不熟悉的事物的倾向一致。

And really, this is amazing.

而且，这真的令人惊叹。

It suggests the children remembered the researcher they'd met just one time when they were only one-year-olds.

这表明，孩子们记住了他们在仅一岁时只见过一次的研究人员。

Of course, as most of us forget memories from our first few years as we grow older, these early, long-term memories will likely be lost in subsequent years.

当然，随着年龄增长，我们大多数人会忘记最初几年的记忆，这些早期的长期记忆可能会在随后的几年中丧失。

Our second study is about music.

我们的第二项研究是关于音乐的。

For this study, researchers played music to babies through speakers located on either side of a human face.

在这项研究中，研究人员通过位于人脸两侧的扬声器向婴儿播放音乐。

They waited until the babies got bored and averted their gaze from the face.

他们等待直到婴儿感到厌烦并将视线从脸上移开。

And then they changed the mood of the music, either from sad to happy or the other way around.

然后他们改变了音乐的情绪，要么从悲伤变为快乐，要么反之。

This mood switch made no difference to the three-month-olds, but for the nine-month-olds, it was enough to renew their interest, and they started looking again in the direction of the face.

这种情绪转换对三个月大的婴儿没有影响，但对九个月大的婴儿来说，足以重新激发他们的兴趣，他们开始再次看向脸的方向。

This suggests that babies of that age can tell the difference between a happy melody and a sad tune.

这表明，这个年龄的婴儿能够区分快乐的旋律和悲伤的曲调。

Our final study is from 1980, but it's still relevant today.

我们的最后一项研究来自1980年，但至今仍然相关。

In fact, it's one of the most famous pieces of research about infant emotion ever published.

事实上，它是有史以来发表的最著名的婴儿情感研究之一。

The study involved ordinary adults watching video clips of babies nine months or younger.

这项研究涉及普通成年人观看九个月或更小婴儿的视频片段。

In the video clips, the babies made various facial expressions in response to real-life events, including playful interactions and painful ones.

在视频片段中，婴儿对现实生活中的事件做出了各种面部表情，包括互动和痛苦事件。

The adult observers were able to reliably discern an assortment of emotions on the babies' faces.

成年观察者能够可靠地辨别婴儿脸上的各种情绪。

These emotions included interest, joy, surprise, sadness, anger, disgust, contempt, and fear.

这些情绪包括兴趣、喜悦、惊讶、悲伤、愤怒、厌恶、轻蔑和恐惧。

Next week, we'll be looking at this last study more closely.

下周，我们将更仔细地研究这项最后的研究。

In fact, we will be viewing some of the video clips from that study, and together, see how well we do in discerning the babies' emotions.

事实上，我们将观看该研究中的一些视频片段，并一起看看我们在辨别婴儿情绪方面做得如何。

Today, I'd like to talk about the dangers of being too collaborative.

今天，我想谈谈过于合作的危险。

Being a good team player is an essential skill in our modern workplace.

在我们现代工作场所中，做一个好的团队合作者是一项必不可少的技能。

The ability to work well with others and collaborate on projects is a sought-after ability in nearly every position.

与他人良好合作并在项目上协作的能力在几乎每个职位中都备受青睐。

However, placing too much emphasis on being a good team player can negatively affect your career growth.

然而，过分强调做一个好的团队合作者可能会对你的职业发展产生负面影响。

Don't be overly focused on gaining consensus.

不要过度专注于达成共识。

Don't be too concerned with the opinions of others.

不要过于在意他人的意见。

This can hinder your ability to make decisions, speak up, and gain recognition for your individual skills and strengths.

这可能会阻碍你做决策、发言以及获得对个人技能和优势的认可。

Some people are too subordinate to others' opinions, too focused on decision consensus, too silent about their own points of view, too agreeable to take things on when they don't have time or energy.

有些人过于顺从他人的意见，过于专注于决策共识，对自己的观点过于沉默，在没有时间或精力时过于愿意承担任务。

This leads to building a brand of under-confident, submissive, low-impact non-leaders and hampers their growth and career advancement.

这会导致形成一种缺乏自信、顺从、低影响力的非领导者形象，并阻碍他们的成长和职业晋升。

Collaboration certainly makes your individual competencies and contributions more difficult for outsiders to identify.

合作确实使你的个人能力和贡献更难被外人识别。

Collaborative projects mean you're sharing the spotlight with others.

合作项目意味着你在与他人分享聚光灯。

Outsiders may then find it difficult to determine your contributions and strengths.

外人可能因此难以确定你的贡献和优势。

This may end up costing you opportunities for promotions or pay raises.

这最终可能会让你失去晋升或加薪的机会。

You certainly shouldn't ditch teamwork, but how can you avoid the hazards of being an over-collaborator?

你当然不应该抛弃团队合作，但如何避免成为一个过度合作者的风险呢？

Working in a team can have huge benefits.

在团队中工作可以带来巨大的好处。

Your team may have repeated successes and often gain recognition.

你的团队可能会反复取得成功并经常获得认可。

You'll then have more opportunities to expand your professional network than if you worked alone.

与独自工作相比，你将有更多机会扩展你的专业网络。

However, finding a balance between team efforts and individual projects that give you independent recognition is important for making a name for yourself and providing opportunities for advancement.

然而，在团队努力和个人项目之间找到平衡，这些项目能给你独立的认可，对于建立自己的名声和提供晋升机会很重要。

Be selective in who you work with.

在选择合作伙伴时要有选择性。

This will maximise the benefits and minimise the downsides of being a team player.

这将最大化作为一个团队合作者的好处，并最小化其弊端。

Collaborate with people who have complementary expertise.

与拥有互补专业知识的人合作。

Select projects where there's potential for mutual benefit.

选择有互惠互利潜力的项目。

Perhaps you're bringing your unique knowledge and gaining access to someone else's professional network.

或许你带来了你的独特知识，并获得了进入他人专业网络的机会。

Or maybe you're able to learn a new skill by working with someone.

或者也许你通过与某人合作能够学到一项新技能。

Seek out your teammates purposefully rather than jumping on every new group project opportunity.

有目的地寻找你的队友，而不是盲目抓住每一个新的团队项目机会。

When we are too collaborative, we want everyone to agree with a decision before we proceed.

当我们过于合作时，我们希望每个人在行动前都同意一个决定。

This can create unnecessary delays as you hold meetings trying to achieve a consensus.

当你召开会议试图达成共识时，这可能会造成不必要的延误。

It's fine to be collaborative when seeking input, but put a deadline on the input stage and arrive at a decision, even if it's a decision that doesn't have consensus.

在寻求意见时合作是可以的，但要对意见收集阶段设定截止日期，并做出决定，即使这个决定没有达成共识。
