25.In the early 1950 s，historians who studied preindustrial Europe began， for the first time in large numbers，to investigate more of the preindustrial European population than the 2 or 3 percent who comprised the political and social elite：the kings，generals，judges，nobles，bishops，and local magnates who had hitherto usually filled history books.
二十世纪五十年代早期，研究前工业化时代欧洲的史学家，首次以众多的人数，开始调查前工业化时代欧洲人口中的大多数，而非那些构成了政治与社会精英阶层的百分之二或三的人口，即国王、将军、法官、贵族、主教、以及地方上的达官显贵，而正是这部分人一直到那时为止普遍充斥于史学著作。
26.Historians such as Le Roy Ladurie have used the documents to extract case histories， which have illuminated1 the attitudes of different social groups and have revealed how the authorities administered justice.

28.But achieving necessary matches in physical properties across interfaces4 between living and nonliving matter requires knowledge of which molecules5 control the bonding of cells to each other-an area that we have not yet explored thoroughly6.
但是，要想沿着原生和非原生物质之间的界面获取生理特性的必要匹配，需要某种知识，即什么样的分子控制着细胞彼此间的结合——而对这一领域，我们尚未进行充分的探索。
