  <播放语音>

Chemicals sprayed on croplands or forests or gardens lie long in soil, entering into living organisms, passing from one to another in a chain of poisoning and death. Or they pass mysteriously by underground streams until they emerge and combine into new forms that kill vegetation, sicken cattle, and work unknown harm on those who drink from once pure wells. “Man can hardly even recognize the devils of his own creation,” as a scientist has said.

喷洒到农田、森林或者花园里的化学物质长期滞留于土壤中,渗入有机体内,并彼此相传,形成了一个中毒与死亡的链条。化学物质还神秘地通过地下水传递,最终以新的形式出现并结合,使植物毒死,牲畜害病,并使饮用一度纯净的井水的人遭受了不明之害。正如一位科学家所言:“人类甚至对自己创造的恶魔都不认识。”

 
 => 简明语法


比较while, when, as


1)as, when 引导短暂性动作的动词。
    Just as / Just when / When I stopped my car, a man came up to me.
2)当从句的动作发生于主句动作之前,只能用when 引导这个从句,不可用as 或 while。
    When you have finished your work, you may have a rest.
3)从句表示"随时间推移"连词能用as,不用when 或while。
    As the day went on, the weather got worse. 
   日子一天天过去,天气越变越坏。
