二、 Text Explanation• Qustions:• 1.Compare the sources of inorganic c
hemicals with that of organic chemicals.
• 2.Give an example of the extraction process for processing inorganic chemicals.
• 3.Distinguish between non-renewable resource and renewable resource. And show the relative values of oil in the different forms.
• 4.Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the fermentation process.
Question: Compare the sources of inorganic chemicals with that of organic chemicals.
Words: compare tocompare with
Sentences• 1.Even this vast number pales into in
significance [when compared to the number of carbon compounds which is theoretically possible].
• pales into insignificance 变得微不足道
• 2. However, [of the remainder] there are probably several thousands which are of commercial and practical interest.
• are of commercial and practical interest 具有商业和实际应用价值 .
• Be of n. = be adj.
• 3. It might therefore be expected that there would be a large number of sources of these chemicals. Although this is true for inorganic chemicals, surprisingly most organic chemicals can originate from a single source such as crude oil( petroleum ).
• This=there would be a large number of sources of these chemicals
1. Inorganic Chemicals
Question:Give an example of the extraction process for
processing inorganic chemicals.
Words: on one’s own 独自;自己单独地;凭自己力量
in question 上述的
Sentences• 4. If therefore the individual element or ele
ments, say the metal, are required then the extraction process must involve chemical treatment in addition to any separation methods of a purely physical nature.
• in addition to , 除 ... 外还有……
2. Organic Chemicals
Questions:
1. Distinguish between non-renewable resource and renewable resource.
2. Show the relative values of oil in the different forms.
3. Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the fermentation process.

eleventh power of ten, or ten to the eleventh power 。

barrel 桶 A Barrel (bbl.) of crude contains 42 gallons or 158.8 liters. No one actually ships petroleum in barrels anymore because they are too small, but the term is still used to describe a defined volume.
Sentences• 5. This is a very interesting situation —one which h
as changed over the years and will change again in the future—because technically these same chemicals could be obtained from other raw materials or sources.
• —one which has changed over the years and will change again in the future— 同位语
• 同位语的符号—……… .—; (………….); ,…………….., i.e………..
• 6. The formation of fossil fuels, i.e. oil gas and coal reserves, takes millions of years and once used they cannot be replace. they are therefore referred to as non—renewable resources.
• renewable resources 可再生资源• i.e.=that is
• 7. Clearly alternative energy sources to fossil fuels are now available if we have the will to use them, and we can confidently expect other alternatives to become available in the not too distant future.
• 这里 will 是决心,意志的意思
• 8. It is interesting, and salutary, [to note that as early as 1894 Mendeleyev ( the Russian chemist who developed the Periodic Table ) reported to his government that “oil was too valuable a resource to be burned and should be preserved as a source of chemicals.”]
• It 形式主语
• 9. Some of these processes have been used in the domestic situation for many thousands of years, the best-known example being fermentation of grains to produce alcoholic beverages.
• the best-known example being 最为熟知的例子是
• 10. Indeed up until about 1950 this was the most popular route to aliphatic organic chemicals, since the ethanol produce could be dehydrated to give ethylene, which is the key intermediate for the synthesis of a whole range of aliphatic compounds.
• • key intermediate 关键中间体
• 11. Major disadvantages of fermentation [compared with petrochemical processes ]are , firstly, the time scale, which is usually of the order of days compared to literally seconds for some catalytic petrochemical reactions, and secondly, the fact that the product is usually obtained as a dilute aqueous solution (< 10% concentration ).
• 12. On the other hand particular advantages of fermentation methods are (that they are very selective and that some chemicals which are structurally very complex, and therefore extremely difficult to synthesize, and/or require a multi-stage synthesis, are easily made.)
• 13. Provided that the immense practical problems associated with the rapidly developing field of genetic engineering, [where micro-organisms such as bacteria are ‘tailor-made’ to produce the required chemical], can be overcome, then the interest in fermentation methods will be very considerable.
• Provided that =if 如果 , 只要 , 倘若
The advantages and disadvantages of the fermentation process:
Advantages Disadvantages
1. high selectivity higher raw
material costs
2. structurally very high separation and
complex chemical purification costs
3. renewable resources difficult and expensive
transportation 4. long time scale
