　　英文原文

　　A biomechanics films an athlete in action and then digitizes her performance, recording the motion of every joint and limb in three dimensions. By applying Newton's laws to these motions, 'we can say that this athlete's run is not fast enough; that this one is not using his arms strongly enough during take-off,' says Dapena, who uses these methods to help high jumpers.

　　C4T4P 1: How Much Higher? How Much Faster?

　　中文翻译

　　知识点小结

　　1.biomechanics，即研究肢体运动的学科，称为“生物力学”。前缀bio-表示“生物，生命”。

　　2.films在这里是作动词用，表示“把……拍摄成影片”，所以它跟digitizes一样，是A biomechanics的并列谓语。recording the motion of every joint and limb in three dimensions是一个分词状语结构，recording这个动作与films和digitizes主语相同，同时进行。

　　3.词组apply...to在这里意思是“把……应用到……上”。此外它还有“涂;敷;施;涉及;适用”的意思，如：

　　This rule does not apply to us.

　　这条规定对我们不适用。

　　4.say的宾语是两个并列的从句，记住并列的成分在词性上应该是一致的。

　　5.take-off的意思是“起跳”，它还可以表示飞机的起飞。

　　参考翻译

　　生物力学将一个运动中的运动员拍摄下来，然后将她的表现数字化，用三维网像记录下每一个关节和肢体的动作。通过把牛顿定律应用到这些运动中，“我们可以说这个运动员跑得不够快，或者这个运动员起跳时没有充分利用手臂，”Dapena说道。Dapena使用这些方法来帮助跳高运动员。

　　与本次句子翻译相关的阅读项目

　　One of the most important new methodologies is biomechanics, the study of the body in motion. A biomechanics films an athlete in action and then digitizes her performance, recording the motion of every joint and limb in three dimensions. By applying Newton's laws to these motions, 'we can say that this athlete's run is not fast enough; that this one is not using his arms strongly enough during take-off,' says Dapena, who uses these methods to help high jumpers.

　　To date, however, biomechanics has made only a small difference to athletic performance.

　　Biomechanics films are proving particularly useful because they enable trainers to

　　A. highlight areas for improvement in athletes.

　　B. assess the fitness levels of athletes.

　　C. select top athletes.

　　D. predict the success of athletes.

　　汉英翻译练习

　　报纸不是唯一一个不愿意承认好消息的媒介(此处用形容词短语作后置定语，去修饰“媒介”);很多新闻报道，为了相同的增加视听率的原因，同样花费更多的精力去揭发社会的阴暗面，而使积极面显得不那么重要(play down)。

　　参考翻译

　　Newspapers are not the only medium reluctant to acknowledge the good news; many newscasts, for the same reason of enhancing their audience ratings, also spend more effort exposing the dark sides of our society while playing down the positive sides.
