Slient Spring 英语文章

Silent Spring is a book written by Rachel Carson and published by Houghton Mifflin in September 1962. The book is widely credited with helping launch the environmental movement.

When Silent Spring was published, Rachel Carson was already a well-known writer on natural history, but had not previously been a social critic. The book was widely read (especially after its selection by the Book-of-the-Month Club and an endorsement by Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas), spending several weeks on the New York Times best-seller list, and inspired widespread public concerns with pesticides and pollution of the environment. Silent Spring facilitated the ban of the pesticide DDT in 1972 in the United States.

The book documented detrimental effects of pesticides on the environment, particularly on birds. Carson said that DDT had been found to cause thinner egg shells and result in reproductive problems and death. She also accused the chemical industry of spreading disinformation, and public officials of accepting industry claims uncritically.

Silent Spring has made many lists of the best nonfiction books of the twentieth century. In the Modern Library List of Best 20th-Century Nonfiction it was at #5, and it was at #78 in the conservative National Review. Most recently, Silent Spring was named one of the 25 greatest science books of all time by the editors of Discover Magazine.

A follow-up book, Beyond Silent Spring, co-authored by H.F. van Emden and David Peakall, was published in 1986.

SILENT SPRING怎么样

19、20世纪以来的科技革命使得人类社会“飞速发展”了。如今，连这个 发展速度本身也在飞速提高着。飞机飞行超过一定加速度的时候，飞行 员就会因超重而黑视，两眼模糊，看不清东西。如今的人类社会就已经 进入了“黑视”状态。我们看不清世界，看不清自己。作为动物的本能和欲 望被无限释放，因为我们不知道除了这些还有什么可追求的。美食、男 女，放眼网络和现实，人们每天所思所想好像都停留在了这两样东西 上。我们自小被告知，科技使得生活方便、快捷。 是的，出行方便了，美丽的景色不在了，欣赏美的心没有了 饮水方便了，水里却有了害人的东西 人们之间联系方便了，却发现，没有什么人联系你 人类以为世界前所未有的光明灿烂，以为自己前所未有地聪明、有力。之所以我们会这么认为，就是因为，我们在变得前所未有的愚蠢。

《Silent Spring》的写作背景

《Silent Spring（寂静的春天》写作背景;

20世纪50年代正值二战之后东西方对峙的“冷战”时期，美国的企业界为了经济开发而大量砍伐森林，破坏自然，“三废”污染严重。特别是为了增加粮食生产和木材出口，美国农业部放任财大气粗的化学工业界开发DDT等剧毒杀虫剂并不顾后果地执行大规模空中喷洒计划。导致鸟类、鱼类和益虫大量死亡，而害虫却因产生抗体而日益狷獗。

化学毒性通过食物链进入人体，诱发癌症和胎儿畸形等疾病。当自然、生物甚至人类受到伤害时，责任感和科学家的良知使蕾切尔·卡逊不能沉默。

在身患绝症，靠放疗维持生命，几乎濒临瘫痪和失明的情况下，蕾切尔·卡逊只身面对企业界和政府官僚科研机构权威们的强大压力，对只顾商业利益不顾人类安危的工业集团和曾获得过诺贝尔奖金的化学药品DDT提出了挑战：她专门研究危害不次于辐射性的“死神的特效药”（剧毒农药），开始了她称之为“讨伐”恶势力的行动。

经过4年顽强刻苦的调查研究，蕾切尔·卡逊写出了《寂静的春天》，该书于1962年出版。

该书定名为《寂静的春天》得益于该书的保罗·布鲁克斯。在阅读书稿过程中，当他读到鸟儿寂静无声令人心碎的情节时，便想到了这个题名。

扩展资料

《寂静的春天》所要表达的：

在《寂静的春天》中，卡逊向公众发出呼吁，要求制止使用有毒化学品的私人和公共计划，这些计划将最终毁掉地球上的生命。

她要求人们了解真相并针对现状做出行动，因为关注环境不仅是工业界和政府的事情，也是民众的分内之事，那些阴险的毒物，通过喷雾剂和尘土、食物传播，要远比核战争的放射性残骸危险。

卡逊在书中指出花费了数以百万计的税款的喷药计划一开始就注定要失败，使用它们或者任何为企图对付迅速产生的抗药性的新产品都是无效的，这被越来越多的病虫害所证实。

她详细描述了消灭吉卜赛蛾的计划在杀死吉卜赛蛾的同时也杀死了鱼、螃蟹和鸟类，她还详细描述了消灭火蚁的计划杀死的是牛、雉鸡，而不是火蚁；由于破坏了自然控制（生态）的手段，许多其他计划导致了更多害虫的产生。

卡逊主张用其他方法代替广泛使用的化学毒剂，她指出了使用瓢虫控制介壳虫等成功事例，她认为一旦引入了天敌或者对手，新出现在某地的有害物种就不会造成很大的麻烦。自然界的生存斗争能让害虫的数量保持在较低水平。
