percent in 1900 and vastly more than at Yale or Princeton. In the Ivy League

Harvard’s president, A. Lawrence Lowell, warned that the “Jewish invasion

All the guilty parties were declared before any evidence was shown. The
first questions of any criminal investigation were erased. Who had the most

我是摩羯——我的爱人是白羊
如果你爱上了一只白羊，很明显，你面前有一段痛苦的路。。。因为你们的方向根本就

你作为一只摩羯，在内心深处是一个传统的人，并且，你能够在等级森严的大公司作出
优秀表现。摩羯喜欢清晰的命令和等级制度，并且享受那种在大公司拥有一份体面工作
所带来的优越感。然而，一只白羊，绝对不会为除了他们自己以外的任何人工作，他们

永远提出新主意。白羊座拥有自我欣赏自我中心的特质，这一点也会令你难以接受。但
是一只摩羯需要社会承认，所以如果你的白羊得到了这个，你会非常非常骄傲，你会为
他们宣传他们的成功。

高能物理的绝唱
作者是王孟源，哈佛高能物理博士
现代高能物理始於1940年代的量子场论（Quantum Field Theory），最初的应用是以
量子电动力学（Quantum Electro-Dynamics，QED）来解释电磁力。
在1950年代，加速器的技术突飞猛进，数以百计的高能粒子被发现；物理学家在整理
这些粒子的时候，注意到各种对称性（Symmetry），其中最深奥困难也最重要的是规范
对称性（Gauge Symmetry）。其实QED本身就是一个规范场论，但是它只是规范场论中
最简单的一种，叫可交换规范场论（Abelian Gauge Theory）。
1954年，杨振宁和他的学生Robert Mills解决了非交换规范场论（Non-Abelian
Gauge Theory）的难题，高能物理理论界随... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 6689 | 25 Wiki上有这样的话：As the literary theorist Linda Hutcheon (2000: 7) puts it,
"parody … is imitation with a critical difference, not always at the
expense of the parodied text." Another critic, Simon Dentith (2000: 9),
defines parody as "any cultural practice which provides a relatively
polemical allusive imitation of another cultural production or practice."
所以我理解，这种讽刺，只要能够找到其背景原型，形式上倒不必严格拘泥于原文吧？
