本教材編寫的宗旨在于使本教材在針對(duì)性、適應(yīng)性、實(shí)用性和前瞻性上都有較強(qiáng)的、不同程度的體現(xiàn)。因此，在編寫過程中，對(duì)于課文題材與內(nèi)容的篩選，對(duì)于讀、寫、譯技巧的選擇，對(duì)于練習(xí)內(nèi)容的考慮都是本著使學(xué)生在研究生階段能夠在英語知識(shí)的獲取與運(yùn)用兩方面相輔相成，有機(jī)互補(bǔ)。尤其是在運(yùn)用外語知識(shí)進(jìn)行國際交流與獲取專業(yè)學(xué)習(xí)所需信息的能力上使學(xué)生能夠有一定程度的提高，使其更好地適應(yīng)于社會(huì)，服務(wù)于社會(huì)，在一定程度上滿足社會(huì)的需求。本教材不僅在內(nèi)容上力求使研究生獲取較為的知識(shí)和技能，在編寫上也能夠考慮到教與學(xué)的需求，將研究生必須掌握的文獻(xiàn)閱讀、寫作、翻譯三種技巧融合在同一本教材中，既能滿足學(xué)生的需要，也有利于教師的教學(xué)。

Living without privacy, even in his bedroom, was no problem for Louis XIV. In fact, it was a way for the French king to demonstrate his absolute authority over even the most powerful members of the aristocracy. Each morning, they gathered to see the Sun King get up, pray, perform his bodily functions, choose his wig and so on.
Will this past—life without privacy—be our future? Many futurists, sciencefiction writers and privacy advocates believe so. Big Brother, they have long warned, is watching. Closed-circuit television cameras often track your moves; your mobile phone reveals your location; your transit pass and credit cards leave digital trails. Now there is the possibility that citizens are being watched.
But in the past few years, something strange has happened. Thanks to the spread of mobile phones, digital cameras and the internet, surveillance technology has become far more widely available. Bruce Schneier, a security guru, argues that a combination of forces—the miniaturisation of surveillance technologies, the falling price of digital storage and ever more sophisticated systems able to sort through large amounts of information—means that "surveillance abilities that used to be limited to governments are now, or soon will be, in the hands of everyone."
