普朗克是个苦命的人，妻子和次子死于二战，双胞胎女儿都死于分娩的时候。仅有的长子最后参加了刺杀希特勒的团队，被处决。换个话题说，19世纪80年代，一位叫阿尔伯特•迈克尔逊，在他的朋友化学家爱德华•莫雷的协助之下，进行了一系列试验。所出的结果将对以后产生重大的影响~~~

书本的朗读语音很charming的磁性英音~~~大家可以好好学着模仿哦~~~！！
因为原著为美国人所写,单词采用美式拼法,不抄全文，也不用写序号。答完一空换行继续下一空作答。文中需听写单词或词组用[-No-]表示，句子用[---No---]表示。请边听写边理解文意，根据下面的TIPS训练听写。这样可以提高听力准确度，并为训练听译打下基础哦~~~

TIPS听写训练点：单词拼写，时态，单复数，连读，长难句（请边听边用符号先记下内容，然后自己回头组织语句，最后校对，不要逐字逐句听写）

ramifications

Undaunted—well, [-1-] —Planck turned to other matters.

Planck was often unlucky in life. [---2---] He also had twin daughters whom he [-3-]. One died giving birth. The surviving twin went to look after the baby and fell in love with her sister's husband. They married and two years later she died in childbirth. [---4---] The following year his surviving son was caught in a conspiracy to assassinate Hitler and executed.

We shall turn to these ourselves in a moment, but first we must make a slight (but [-5-]!) detour to Cleveland, Ohio, and an institution then known as the Case School of Applied Science. [---6---]



perhaps mildly daunted His beloved first wife died early, in 1909, and the younger of his two sons was killed in the First World War. adored In 1944, when Planck was 85, an Allied bomb fell on his house and he lost everything, papers, diaries, a lifetime of accumulations. relevant There, in the 1880s, a physicist of early middle years named Albert Michelson, assisted by his friend the chemist Edward Morley, embarked on a series of experiments that produced curious and disturbing results that would have great ramifications for much of what followed.
普朗克没有泄气--哎呀，也许稍稍有点胆怯，开始把注意力转向别的问题。 这方面的事，我们等一会儿再说，先稍稍地（而又恰当地）换个方向，前往俄亥俄州的克利夫兰，去一家当时被称为凯斯实用科学学校的机构。19世纪80年代，那里有一位刚到中年的物理学家，名叫阿尔伯特•迈克尔逊。他在他的朋友化学家爱德华•莫雷的协助之下，进行了一系列试验。那些试验得出了很有意思而又令人吃惊的结果，将对以后的许多事情产生重大的影响。
