　1. 其实，全球后工业化过程中，看看上海浦东、吉隆坡双子塔和美国世贸废墟等为“第一高楼”争得打破头，看看一幢楼里一模一样的房子高一层即贵一万元，便可明白人类这种登高望远的野心。即使“上九天揽月”也不再是嫦娥或库布里克的奥德赛之梦了，从加加林的首航和阿姆斯特朗的“一小步”，到美国富翁狄托那次昂贵却货真价实的太空旅游，人类才花了二十几年。据说两年内将启动的Sub-Orbital Flights子轨道飞行，每人只需5万美金就可以预定座位了。如果张雨生还活着的话，想去月球他就去吧。

　　译文：In fact， it is quite easy to understand the wish of human being to be the highest whenwe see the fierce competition for the highest one among the high buildings in Pudong， theTwin Tower in Kuala Lumpur， and the ruins of the World Trade Center， or when we areshocked by the sharp increase in price for the same houses at different stories in a building. Totravel in the outer space is not longer something absolutely impossible—— it only after 20years later since Gagarins first navigation in the outer space and Armstrongs little step therethat Ditto， an American rich man， took his expensive but real travel in space. It is said theSub-Orbital Flights Subtrack Flight to be launched within 2 years will only charge 50 thousanddollars for the reservation from each passenger. If Zhang Yusheng， a famous singer inChina， was still alive， he could realize his dream of visiting the moon.

　　2.有观点就必然有差异，即使是不同的声音在媒体中也都拥有了发表的空间(凤凰卫视的《时事辩论会》节目中，拥战派和反战派的嘉宾就吵得不亦乐乎)。这充分证明适当地拓广舆论空间，并不会打破一个社会的秩序和稳定。相反恰恰是在不同观点的冲撞中，使得公众得以从不同的角度接受信息、思考问题，而一种平衡的舆论机制正在潜移默化中自发形成。

　　译文：The differences in opinions are something that can not be avoided. The mass mediaoffers that area of argumentation (in Current Affairs sponsored by Phoenix SatelliteTelevision Station， those for and against the war against Iraq had a heated debate.) Bythat， the practice of reasonably expanding the space for mass opinions was fully proveddoing little harm to the social order and stability. Instead， the general public can getinformation and consider the situation in a comprehensive way because of the existence oflarge number of different ideas. As a result， a balanced mass opinion mechanism graduallycomes into being.

　　3.上海在缩短与国际大都市硬件上的时差的成绩还体现在城市天际线的高度上。1932年，24层的上海国际饭店建成，当时号称远东第一高楼，并在50年内保持着上海第一高楼的身份，直到——深圳超过了它，北京超过了它，上海自身以几千座摩天建筑超过了它。任何一座最高建筑最多只能“各领高度三五年”，然后被更高的建筑取代，这种建筑的宿命与城市努力缩短国际时差的动机是一致的。

　　译文：Shanghai's progress in shorten the distance in infrastructures with the other metropoliscan also be displayed in its high building. Shanghai International Hotel， a 24-stored-buildingranking 1st in height in the Far East at that time， remained the highest building in Shanghai for50 years. Later， it was surpassed by those high buildings in Shenzhen and Beijing， andsimilarly by the thousands of skyscrapers in Shanghai. Today， any building can only enjoy itsfame of being the highest one for about 3-5 years， and then will be replaced by some otherhigher as the highest ones. Consequently， that fact makes endless the efforts made by thecity to reduce its differences with the other cities.
