Passage 1
Specialisation can be en as a respon to the problem of an increasing accumulation of scientific knowledge. By splitting up the subject matter into smaller units, one man could continue to handle the information and u it as the basis for further rearch. But specialisation was only one of a ries of related developments in science affecting the process of communication. Another was the growing professionalisation of scientific activity.
No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professionals and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule. Nevertheless, the word "amateur" does carry a connotation that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not fully share its values. The growth of specialisation in the ninete
正切函数的性质与图像enth century, with its conquent requirement of a longer, more complex training, implied greater problems for amateur participation in science. The trend was naturally most obvious in tho areas of science bad especially on a mathematical or laboratory training, and can be illustrated in terms of the development of geology in the United Kingdom.
A comparison of British geological publications over the last century and a half reveals not simply an increasing emphasis on the primacy of rearch, but also a changing definition of what constitutes an acceptable rearch paper. Thus, in the nineteenth century, local geological studies reprented worthwhile rearch in their own right; but, in the twentieth century, local studies have increasingly become acceptable to professionals only if they incorporate, and reflect on, the wider geological picture. Amateurs, on the other hand, have continued to pursue local studies in the old way. The overall result has been to make entrance to professional geological journals harder for amateurs, a result that has been reinforced by the widespread introduction of refereeing, first by national journals in the nineteenth century and then by veral local geological jou

rnals in the twentieth century. As a logical conquence of this development, parate journals have now appeared aimed mainly towards either professional or amateur readership. A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional geologists coming together nationally within one or two specific societies, where as the amateurs have tended either to remain in local societies or to come together nationally in a different way.
Although the process of professionalisation and specialisation was already well under way in British geology during the nineteenth century, its full conquences were thus delayed until the twentieth century. In science generally, however, the nineteenth century must be reckoned as the crucial period for this change in the structure of science. 专业化可被视为针对科学知识不断膨胀这个问题所做出的反应。通过将学科细化，个人能够电费调整

在科学领域内，专业与业余之间没有绝对的区分:任何规律都有其例外。但是“业余”这个词
的确具有特殊的含义，那就是所指的那个人没有完全融入某个科学家群体，具体地说，他可
能并不完全认同这个群体的价值观。19世纪的专业化的发展，以及随之而来的对训练的长
期性和复杂性的要求，对业余人员进入科学界造成了更大的困难。特别是在以数学和实验室
训练为基础的科学领域，这种倾向自然尤为明显，这可以通过英国的地质学发展过程得到证新手出纳怎样记流水账
实。
对过去一个半世纪的英国地质出版物进行比较，我们不但发现人们对研究的重视程度在不断
增加，而且人们对可以接受的论文的定义也在不断变化。因此，在19世纪，局部的地质研
究本身就可形成一种有价值的研究;而到了20世纪，如果局部的研究能够被专业人员接受，
那么它越来越倾向于必须体现或思考更广阔的地质面貌。另一方面业余人员继续以旧的方式
兰亭集序原文从事局部的研究。其整体的结果是使业余人员进入专业性地质学杂志更加困难，而审稿制度
的全面引进使这个结果得到加强，这一制度开始是在19世纪的全国性杂志进行，进入20世
纪后也在一些地方性地质杂志实行。这样发展的必然结果是出现了针对专业读者和业余读者
的不同杂志。类似的分化过程也导致专业地质学家聚集起来，形成一两个全国性的团体，而
业余地质学家则要么留在地方性团体中，要么以不同方式组成全国性的团体。
虽然职业化和专业化过程在19世纪的英国地质学界中已经得到迅速发展，但是它的效

A great deal of attention is being paid today to the so-called digital divide — the division of
the world into the info(information) rich and the info poor. And that divide does exist today. My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago. What was less visible then, however, were the new, positive forces that work against the digital divide. There are reasons to be optimistic.
There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will narrow. As the Internet becomes more and more commercialized, it is in the interest of business to universalize access — after all, the more people online, the more potential customers there are. More and more governments, afraid their countries will be left behind, want to spread Internet a

As a result, I now believe the digital divide will narrow rather than widen in the years ahead. And that is very good news becau the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for combating world poverty that we've ever had.
