英译中 旧书 Unit 13 1. The American press, radio, and television have done a good job of reporting the truly remarkable story of succession in the chemical war on germs. 美国的新闻界、电台、电视用大量的篇幅报道了有关对细菌的化学战中获得的显著功绩。 2. What’s more, any shortcomings on their part have been more than made up for by the aggressive public relations activity of the pharmaceutical companies which manufacture and sell antibiotics. 而[更有甚者, ]抗生素的缺点本身却被生产和销售抗生素的制药公司通过积极过分的公关活动掩盖得毫无踪迹。 3.

The doctor, of course, must choose the drug, but patients can help by being sure to take the full course of treatment recommended by the doctor, even though symptoms seem to disappear before all the pills are gone. 必须服用剂量足够的药物直到完全根除感染为止。当然医生必须选用药物，但病人可以协同医生保证采纳医生推荐的整个疗程，即使在全部药丸服完以前症状似乎已经消失。 7. With their competition removed, antibiotic-resistant staphylococci or fungi, which are also normally present, are free to flourish and cause what is called a super-infection. 随着对抗的消失，正常情况下存在的耐药性葡萄球菌或真菌自由繁殖，并引起一种所谓的重复感染。 8. All the possible troubles that can result from antibiotic treatment should not keep anyone from using one
