Therefore, there is no“center” of the universe fromwheretheBigBangstarted.Translation6 这就是大爆炸理论的基本观点。很久以前,所有的物质和能量都以无穷大的密度以一个无穷小的奇点形式存在,之后这个奇点作为我们的宇宙就不断地膨胀。这里要重点说明的是大爆炸并不是指宇宙中的一次爆炸,而是指整个宇宙的爆炸。因此,宇宙中并没有一个大爆炸开始的“中心”。 上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 BackNext Questions about Paras. 5-62.

29、宙在不断地膨胀,所以过去一定比现在小。如果过去比较小,很可能在某一时间它是无穷小的。可能有人会问:为什么我们不可以理解成宇宙现在正在膨胀,但过去可能一直在收缩,只不过是我们不知道罢了?对这一问题的回答是,没有任何已知的方法可以完成这种宇宙规模的转化。 上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 BackNext 2.

35、通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 BackNext Meaning: According to the Big Bang theory, the CMB reflects what the universe was like when it was about 300,000 years old. The literal meaning of echo is “repetition of a sound by reflection of sound waves from a surface”. But in this context, it denotes a repetition or an
36、imitation (of the universe at the age of 300,000 years). Hence the word has been extended to mean “a remnant or vestige (残留物,遗留的痕迹)”. e.g. The archeologists found echoes of past civilizations while examining artifacts in the Middle East. Note that in this sentence, the first as introduces an adverbi
37、al clause of time modifying the main clause “it becomes hot”. Also note that the second as is a conjunction, denoting comparison.2.
