这道题的问题就是：如果你也在羊群中，你是选狼还是选狮子？ 南边那群羊想,狮子比狼凶猛得多,还是要狼吧。于是,它们就要了一只狼。北边那群羊想，狮子虽然比狼凶猛得多，但我们有选择权，还是要狮子吧。于是，它们就要了两头狮子。A 那只狼进了南边的羊群后，就开始吃羊。狼身体小，食量也小，一只羊够它吃几天了。这样羊群几天才被追杀一次。北边那群羊挑选了一头狮子，另一头则留在上帝那里。这头狮子进入羊群后,也开始吃羊。狮子不但比狼凶猛，而且食量惊人，每天都要吃一只羊。这样羊群就天天都要被追杀，惊恐万状。羊群赶紧请上帝换一头狮子。不料，上帝保管的那头狮子一直没有吃东西，正饥饿难耐,它扑进羊群，比前面那头狮子咬得更疯狂。羊群一天到晚只是逃命，连草都快吃不成了。 lL 南边的羊群庆幸自己选对了天敌，又嘲笑北边的羊群没有眼光。北边的羊群非常后悔，向上帝大倒苦水,要求更换天敌，改要一只狼。上帝说：“天敌一旦确定，就不能更改,必须世代相随,你们唯一的权利是在两头狮子中选择。” v^+O'Xhv!jG 北边的羊群只好把两头狮子不断更换。可两头狮子同样凶残，换哪一头都比南边的羊群悲惨得多，它们索性不换了,让一头狮子吃得膘肥体壮,另一头狮子则饿得精瘦。眼看那头瘦狮子快要饿死了,羊群才请上帝换一头。bbs.ynet.comI&] f"n\0^/iO @y;DX~%y&e&S!y 这头瘦狮子经过长时间的饥饿后,慢慢悟出了一个道理:自己虽然凶猛异常,一百只羊都不是对手,可是自己的命运是操纵在羊群手里的。羊群随时可以把自己送回上帝那里,让自己饱受饥饿的煎熬,甚至有可能饿死。想通这个道理后,瘦狮子就对羊群特别客气,只吃死羊和病羊,凡是健康的羊它都不吃了。羊群喜出望外,有几只小羊提议干脆固定要瘦狮子,不要那头肥狮子了。一只老公羊提醒说:“瘦狮子是怕我们送它回上帝那里挨饿,才对我们这么好。万一肥狮子饿死了,我们没有了选择的余地,瘦狮子很快就会恢复凶残的本性。”羊群觉得老羊说得有理,为了不让另一头狮子饿死,它们赶紧把它换回来。 原先膘肥体壮的那头狮子,已经饿得只剩下皮包骨头了,并且也懂得了自己的命运是操纵在羊群手里的道理。为了能在草原上待久一点,它竟百般讨好起羊群来。而那头被送交给上帝的狮子,则难过得流下了眼泪。 北边的羊群在经历了重重磨难后,终于过上了自由自在的生活。南边的那群羊的处境却越来越悲惨了,那只狼因为没有竞争对手,羊群又无法更换它,它就胡作非为,每天都要咬死几十只羊,这只狼早已不吃羊肉了,它只喝羊 14 janvier 红外识谱歌红外识谱歌

传说中的DNA音乐转帖 http://www.ster.cn/zsk/chuzhong/200505/636.html 中国科技教育资源网 >> 知识库 >> 生物 >> 文章正文 作者：张明华 相关图片如下：  当你欣赏肖邦的《葬礼进行曲》时，也许眼前会出现一个受尽苦楚的老人，正在冷漠的世界中寻找最后的归宿；也许你会感到自己正随着送葬的队伍，在严冬的风雪中蹒跚而行……令人难以想像的是，这一富有艺术魅力的乐曲，竟和生物体细胞中的遗传物质——脱氧核糖核酸（DNA）的音乐不谋而合。难道DNA中也有音乐？DNA中怎么会出现《葬礼进行曲》的乐谱？这里，不妨从近年来DNA研究的一项重大突破谈起。 首先发现DNA音乐的是，日本癌症研究中心的两位生物学家。DNA分子是由两条脱氧核苷酸链相互缠绕而成。脱氧核苷酸由脱氧核糖、碱基和磷酸组成。构成DNA的碱基有四种：腺嘌呤（A）、鸟嘌呤（G）、胞嘧啶（C）和胸腺嘧啶（T）。两条脱氧核苷酸链上碱基的排列顺序，不是杂乱无章的。通常，一条长链上的鸟嘌呤只能与另一条链上的胞嘧啶互相结合，构成碱基对G—C或C—G；腺嘌呤只能与胸腺嘧啶结合，构成碱基对A—T或T—A。两位日本生物学家在进行DNA研究时，别出心裁地用音符来代替碱基排列顺序——选择音符“2”、“3”、“5”、“6”来取代G、C、T、A。他们把人体白血病病毒的一种DNA的碱基排列顺序配成乐谱，并用电子乐器演奏时，人们会感到缠绵悱恻，潸然泪下。 DNA音乐问世后，整个生物学界轰动了。在美国、英国学者和日本其他科学家的努力下，DNA变奏曲、DNA组曲等应运而生，它们以迷人的旋律赢得了众多的观众。有些学者认为，DNA的碱基排列同音乐中的旋律颇为相似。有位科学家把人体胰岛素DNA的碱基排列配成乐谱，发现它与肖邦《葬礼进行曲》第三乐章的中间部分十分相似。 一旦把所有的DNA都谱成乐曲，到那时人们就能尽情欣赏生物界存在的奇妙音乐了。当然，DNA音乐的价值远不止这些。科学家们预言，这也许是揭开DNA密码之谜的关键。如果能将《葬礼进行曲》翻译成碱基排列顺序，从而按此顺序人工合成蛋白质，那么人世间就将出现具有特殊功能的新颖蛋白质。 【下载】 下面是我搜索到的一些DNA音乐的连接,听上去比较怪异~~ http://larrylang.net/GenomeMusic/ 英文的，但不妨碍大家找到音乐下载的 http://www.whozoo.org/mac/Music/Sources.htm http://whozoo.org/mac/Music/CD.htm http://algoart.com/music.htm 推荐：HIV基因序列音乐！ http://algoart.com/download/music/DNAMusic/HIVNE007.MP3 http://www.toshima.ne.jp/~edogiku/index.html 【科幻】 增加一段文字：选自王晋康先生的小说《生命之歌》（《科幻世界》1995·10） “对，这是生命之歌。科学界早就发现，所有生命的DNA结构都是相似的，连相距甚远的病毒和人类，其DNA结构也有60%以上的共同点。可以说，所有生物是一脉相承的直系血亲。科学家还发现，所有DNA结构序列实际是音乐的体现，只需经过简单的代码互换，就可以变成一首首流畅感人的乐曲。从实质上说，人类乃至所有生物对音乐的精神迷恋，不过是体内基因结构对音乐的物质谐振。早在二十世纪末，生物音乐家就根据已知的生物基因创造了不少原始的基因音乐，公开演出并大受欢迎。 【新闻】转载一组相关新闻…… １.科学家将DNA密码编成音乐CD （《扬子晚报》2003年7月） 泰国一位科学家把动植物及各种有机体的DNA遗传密码转化为音乐音符，创作出了一首别有风趣的乐曲。 泰国基因工程及生物科技国家中心研究员阿克哈姆说：“不论是人，动物还是植物，地球上的每个生灵都由DNA链构成。而我把这些密码翻译成了乐曲的音调。” 阿克哈姆说自己把代表四种DNA化学物质的A、T、G、C符号分别以6、7、1、5这四个音符代替，然后再根据化学物质的组成序列创作出乐曲。 据悉，阿克哈姆已复制了5000张DNA音乐，并准备于本周在芭堤雅举行的泰国2003科技展上向参观者出售。 （小倪） ２.在钢琴上演奏DNA！ 《江南时报》 西班牙科学家将基因编码破译成音符 本报讯 想象一下，人类基因怎样成为音乐？通过解开DNA的双链螺旋结构，把其中的元素如钢琴按键那样排列，并为每个元素规定音符，然后你的手指就可以在这些按键上跳舞了。 西班牙科学家就是这样做的，不仅如此，他们还录制下“生命蓝图音乐版”。 西班牙马德里拉蒙尼·卡贾尔医院的研究小组被音乐的魔幻力所吸引，他们发现音乐可以让婴儿起舞，让成人哭泣，于是他们在人类基因物质中寻找答案，他们还录制了细菌基因的音乐旋律。 他们最终定于2月出版一盘录有10首乐曲的CD，名为“基因音乐”。一名演奏钢琴致力于真菌研究的微生物学家奥若拉·桑奇斯·绍萨博士称，这是一个把科学和音乐紧密结合的方法。 被简称为“DNA”的脱氧核糖核酸是由被称为“核甘”的长分子链组成，这些“核甘”通过4种核苷碱基（腺嘌呤、鸟嘌呤、胸腺嘧啶、胞核嘧啶）的分子加以区分，分别以A、G、T、C四个字母代表，这些就构成了音符。 出生于法国的作曲家理查德·克如尔曾把DNA序列转换成乐曲，其中的一段基因为AGCGTATACGAGT，他给每个字母赋予了8分音符，1-2-3的音阶，比如胸腺嘧啶为2，鸟嘌呤为5，腺嘌呤为6，胞核嘧啶则为1。 这种按照字母顺序排列的音乐是作为克如尔及其同事们作曲的背景音乐，他们认为，整个音乐受到了带有基因编码的背景音乐的旋律、情绪和节奏的影响。 总的来说，基因音乐是一种易听的新时代的音乐，其中一首最美妙的音乐是根据先天性耳聋基因所作的，这种基因在进行突变的时候可以导致耳聋，这首DNA音乐用清脆的铃声演绎出主调，其余旋律用长笛演奏。 （鸿雁） ３.DNA与音符 2003年08月20日06:54 《潇湘晨报》 据具体策划实施该方案的陈志文介绍，在人类基因组计划研究中，研究人员为了研究的方便，把ＤＮＡ四个碱基Ｔ、Ｇ、Ａ、Ｃ中Ｇ和Ｃ与相似的低音2和3对应，而把Ｔ和Ａ与5和6相对应。美国研究人员又按英语的习惯把四个碱基Ｔ、Ｇ、Ａ、Ｃ分别对应为3、4、5、1，结果由此谱出的胰岛素基因的乐曲和肖邦的《葬礼进行曲》极为相似。 现在许多科学家都认为，ＤＮＡ与音乐的不解之缘并非巧合：ＤＮＡ碱基总数是4，而 八度音阶正好是它的2倍，另外在遗传基因的内部，常可以发现许多完全相同或相似的结构，这与作曲的原理是相同的。因此有的科学家甚至作出了更大胆的假设，认为音乐可能是人类自身遗传密码的不自觉释放。尽管ＤＮＡ音乐和与之相关的各种假设的科学性还有待考证，至少它让我们多了一条解释音乐各种魔力作用的希望之路。 （本报记者 周 维） 科技新闻
一道引起全美大学生举国辩论的逻辑题
一个拓扑定理“一个可定向的、紧致的曲面在等价的意义上可以由洞的个数完全刻化。”
———————————————————————————————————— 洞：轮胎内带有一个洞，眼睛架有两个洞，裤子有三个洞…… 曲面：当然，要把上面的物体抽象成二维曲面再研究。裤子虽然存在于三维空间中，但不计它的厚度，它就是二维的了。 紧致：一个曲面（或者曲线、流形）包含它自身的边界，并且不是无限大，那么它是紧致的。线段、圆环、球面（气球、轮胎、包括边界的裤子）是紧致的，直线、不包括边界的裤子是非紧致的。 可定向：偶也不清楚。 流形：一维的叫曲线、二维的叫曲面、三维或者更高维的只能叫流形了。 ———————————————————————————————————— 自认为这个定理很重要，其实它真的很重要，它给出了曲面的分类方法。 关于流形的分类方法还不完善，前一阵子很火的庞加莱**就是关于流形分类的一个猜测（现在成定理了）。 再： 1、可以说不包括边界的东西都是非紧致的，也就是无限大的。 不包括边界的裤子无限大、不包括边界的线段（去掉线段的两个端点，事实上就是直线）无限长、不包括球面的球体实际上充斥整个空间。。。 2、虽然拓扑中允许任意拉长一个线段、任意拉长一条包括边界的裤子，但它们还是有限大的。因为它们是紧致的。 3、上面的话可能有不足，请不要尽信。 1 janvier Nikola TeslaNikola Tesla, Inventor
An Austrian-educated electrical engineer, Tesla emigrated to New York in 1884, where he found work with Thomas Edison. While Edison worked with direct current, Tesla favored alternating current, and soon enough the two inventors parted ways. Tesla went to Westinghouse, and eventually alternating current won the day. Tesla's well-known eccentricities and visionary prophecies were winked at without scorn, thanks to the success of his many inventions. Although famous in his day (his exotic behavior made good copy), Tesla is now regarded as an underappreciated genius. FOUR GOOD LINKS
Nikola Tesla
Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 - 7 January 1943[2]) was a world-renowned Serb-American inventor, physicist, mechanical engineer and electrical engineer. Tesla is regarded as one of the most important inventors in history. He is well known for his contributions to the discipline of electricity and magnetism in the late 19th and early 20th century. Tesla's patents and theoretical work form the basis of modern alternating current electric power (AC) systems, including the polyphase power distribution systems and the AC motor, with which he helped usher in the Second Industrial Revolution. In the United States, Tesla's fame rivaled that of any other inventor or scientist in history or popular culture. After his demonstration of wireless communication in 1893 and after being the victor in the "War of Currents", he was widely respected as America's greatest electrical engineer. Much of his early work pioneered modern electrical engineering and many of his discoveries were of groundbreaking importance. In 1943, the United States Supreme Court credited him as being the inventor of the radio. Never putting much focus on his finances, Tesla died impoverished and forgotten at the age of 86. Tesla's legacy can be seen across the modern world wherever electricity is used. Aside from his work on electromagnetism and engineering, Tesla is said to have contributed in varying degrees to the fields of robotics, ballistics, computer science, nuclear physics, and theoretical physics. In his later years, Tesla was regarded as a mad scientist and became noted for making bizarre claims about possible scientific developments.[3][4] Many of his achievements have been used, with some controversy, to support various pseudosciences, UFO theories, and New Age occultism. Contemporary admirers of Tesla have deemed him "the man who invented the twentieth century."[5] Early yearsAccording to legend, Tesla was born precisely at midnight during an electrical storm, to a Serb family in the village of Smiljan near Gospić, in the Lika region of the Austrian Empire, in the Croatian part of Military Frontier, located in present-day Croatia.[6] His baptism certificate reports that he was born on June 28 [N.S. July 10], 1856, and christened by the Serbian Orthodox priest Toma Oklobdžija. His father was Rev. Milutin Tesla, a priest in the Serbian Orthodox Church Metropolitanate of Sremski Karlovci. His mother was Đuka Mandić, herself a daughter of a Serbian Orthodox Church priest. She was talented in making home craft tools. She memorized many Serbian epic poems, but never learned to read.[7] His godfather, Jovan Drenovac, was a captain in the army protecting the Military Frontier. Tesla was one of five children, having one brother (Dane, who was killed in a horse-riding accident when Nikola was five) and three sisters (Milka, Angelina and Marica).[8] His family moved to Gospić in 1862. Tesla went to school in Karlovac, Croatia then studied electrical engineering at the Austrian Polytechnic in Graz, Austria (1875). While there, he studied the uses of alternating current. He attended only through the first semester of his junior year and did not graduate.[9] He then attended the Charles-Ferdinand branch of the University of Prague for one summer term where he studied physics and higher mathematics.[10] 
 Tesla engaged in reading many works, memorizing complete books. He had a photographic memory.[11] Tesla related in his autobiography that he experienced detailed moments of inspiration. During his early life, Tesla was stricken with illness time and time again. He suffered a peculiar affliction in which blinding flashes of light would appear before his eyes, often accompanied by hallucinations. Much of the time the visions were linked to a word or idea he might come across; just by hearing the name of an item, he would involuntarily envision it in realistic detail. Modern-day synesthetes report similar symptoms. Tesla would visualise an invention in his brain in precise form before moving to the construction stage; a technique which is sometimes known as picture thinking. Tesla also often had flashbacks to events that had happened previously in his life, this began to happen during childhood.[12] Hungary and FranceIn 1881 he moved to Budapest, Hungary, to work for a telegraph company, the American Telephone Company. There, he met Nebojša Petrovič, then a young inventor from Austria. Although their encounter was brief, they did work on a project together using twin turbines to create continual power. On the opening of the telephone exchange in Budapest, 1881, Tesla became the chief electrician to the company, and was later engineer for the country's first telephone system. He also developed a device that, according to some, was a telephone repeater or amplifier, but according to others could have been the first loudspeaker.[13] For a while he stayed in Maribor, Slovenia, where he was first employed as an assistant engineer. He suffered a nervous breakdown during this time. In 1882 he moved to Paris, France to work as an engineer for the Continental Edison Company, designing improvements to electric equipment. In the same year, Tesla conceived of the induction motor and began developing various devices that use rotating magnetic fields (for which he received patents in 1888). Soon thereafter, Tesla hastened from Paris to his mother's side as she lay dying, arriving hours before her death in 1882. Her last words to him were, "You've arrived, Nidžo, my pride." After her death, Tesla fell ill. He spent two to three weeks recuperating in Gospić and the village of Tomingaj near Gračac, Croatia, the birthplace of his mother. United StatesIn 1884, when Tesla first arrived in the US, he had little besides a letter of recommendation from Charles Batchelor, his manager in his previous job. In the letter of recommendation to Thomas Edison, Charles Batchelor wrote, "I know two great men and you are one of them; the other is this young man." Edison hired Tesla to work for his company Edison Machine Works. Tesla's work for Edison began with simple electrical engineering and quickly progressed to solving the company's most difficult problems. Tesla was offered the task of a complete redesign of the Edison company's direct current generators. In 1919 Tesla wrote that Edison offered him the then-staggering sum of $50,000 (almost $1 million today, adjusted for inflation [1]) if he completed the motor and generator improvements. Tesla said he worked nearly a year to redesign them and gave the Edison company several enormously profitable new patents in the process. When Tesla inquired about the $50,000, Edison reportedly replied to him, "Tesla, you don't understand our American humor," and reneged on his promise.[14] Tesla resigned when he was refused a raise to $25 per week. At Tesla's salary of $18 per week the bonus would have amounted to over 53 years pay, and the amount was equal to the initial capital of the company.[15] He eventually found himself digging ditches for a short period of time-- ironically for the Edison company. Edison had also never wanted to hear about Tesla's AC polyphase designs, believing that DC electricity was the future. Tesla focused intently on his AC polyphase system, even while digging ditches.[16]
Middle yearsIn 1886, Tesla formed his own company, Tesla Electric Light & Manufacturing. The initial financial investors disagreed with Tesla on his plan for an alternating current motor and eventually relieved him of his duties at the company. Tesla worked in New York as a common laborer from 1886 to 1887 to feed himself and raise capital for his next project. In 1887, he constructed the initial brushless alternating current induction motor, which he demonstrated to the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (now IEEE) in 1888. In the same year, he developed the principles of his Tesla coil and began working with George Westinghouse at Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company's Pittsburgh labs. Westinghouse listened to his ideas for polyphase systems which would allow transmission of alternating current electricity over large distances. 
In April of 1887, Tesla began investigating what would later be called X-rays using his own single node vacuum tubes (similar to his patent #514170). This device differed from other early X-ray tubes in that they had no target electrode. The modern term for the phenomenon produced by this device is bremsstrahlung (or braking radiation). We now know that this device operated by emitting electrons from the single electrode through a combination of field emission and thermionic emission. Once liberated, electrons are strongly repelled by the high electric field near the electrode during negative voltage peaks from the oscillating HV output of the Tesla Coil, generating X-rays as they collide with the glass envelope. He also used Geissler tubes. By 1892, Tesla became aware of what Wilhelm Röntgen later identified as effects of X-rays. Tesla commented on the hazards of working with single node X-ray producing devices, incorrectly attributing the skin damage to ozone rather than the radiation: "As to the hurtful actions on the skin... I note that they have been misinterpreted... They are not due to the Röntgen rays, but merely to the ozone generated in contact with the skin. Nitrous acid may also be responsible, but to a small extent". (Tesla, in Electrical Review, 30 November 1895). Tesla later observed an assistant severely "burnt" by X-rays in his lab. He performed several experiments prior to Röentgen's discovery (including photographing the bones of his hand; later, he sent these images to Röentgen) but didn't make his findings widely known; much of his research was lost in the 5th Avenue lab fire of March 1895. On July 30, 1891, he became a naturalized citizen of the United States at the age of 35. Tesla established his 35 South Fifth Avenue laboratory in New York during this same year. Later, Tesla would establish his Houston Street laboratory in New York at 46 E. Houston Street. He lit vacuum tubes wirelessly at both of the New York locations, providing evidence for the potential of wireless power transmission.[20] Some of Tesla's closest friends were artists. He befriended Century Magazine editor Robert Underwood Johnson, who adapted several Serbian poems of Jovan Jovanović Zmaj (which Tesla translated). Also during this time, Tesla was influenced by the Vedic philosophy teachings of the Swami Vivekananda.[21] 
When Tesla was 36 years old, the first patents concerning the polyphase power system were granted. He continued research of the system and rotating magnetic field principles. Tesla served as the vice president of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (now part of the IEEE) from 1892 to 1894. From 1893 to 1895, he investigated high frequency alternating currents. He generated AC of one million volts using a conical Tesla coil and investigated the skin effect in conductors, designed tuned circuits, invented a machine for inducing sleep, cordless gas discharge lamps, and transmitted electromagnetic energy without wires, effectively building the first radio transmitter. In St. Louis, Missouri, Tesla made a demonstration related to radio communication in 1893. Addressing the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and the National Electric Light Association, he described and demonstrated in detail its principles. Tesla's demonstrations were written about widely through various media outlets. At the 1893 World's Fair, the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, an international exposition was held which for the first time devoted a building to electrical exhibits. It was a historic event as Tesla and George Westinghouse introduced visitors to AC power by using it to illuminate the Exposition. On display were Tesla's fluorescent lights and single node bulbs. Tesla also explained the principles of the rotating magnetic field and induction motor by demonstrating how to make an egg made of copper stand on end in his demonstration of the device he constructed known as the "Egg of Columbus". Also in the late 1880s, Tesla and Edison became adversaries in part due to Edison's promotion of direct current (DC) for electric power distribution over the more efficient alternating current advocated by Tesla and Westinghouse. Until Tesla invented the induction motor, AC 's advantages for long distance high voltage transmission were counterbalanced by the inability to operate motors on AC. As a result of the "War of Currents," Edison and Westinghouse were almost bankrupt, so in 1897, Tesla released Westinghouse from contract, providing Westinghouse a break from Tesla's patent royalties. Also in 1897, Tesla researched radiation which led to setting up the basic formulation of cosmic rays.[22] When Tesla was 41 years old, he filed the first basic radio patent (U.S. Patent 645576). A year later, he demonstrated a radio controlled boat to the US military, believing that the military would want things such as radio controlled torpedoes. Tesla developed the "Art of Telautomatics", a form of robotics.[23] In 1898, a radio-controlled boat was demonstrated to the public during an electrical exhibition at Madison Square Garden. These devices had an innovative coherer and a series of logic gates. Radio remote control remained a novelty until the 1960s. In the same year, Tesla devised an "electric igniter" or spark plug for Internal combustion gasoline engines.
