掃清困惑

He(44)saw himself, perhaps, as inviting his students to start an exciting(45)voyage into an unknown world invisible（無形的）to the(46)eye, which can be discovered only through scientific(47)methods.

困惑：長難句

分析：這句話的主句部分是He saw himself, perhaps, as inviting his students to start an exciting voyage。see...as doing意思是“認為自己在做某事”。into...world是對voyage的進一步解釋，即“一個進入未知世界的voyage”。其中，invisible to the eye是world的定語，which... methods也是world的定語。

全文翻譯

在我們和別人討論教育如何幫助人們取得成功時，一位女士記起了20年前第一次關于（36）科學的入門課程。

教授（37）大步走進演講廳，在桌子上放一個大罐子，里面裝滿了豆子。他讓學生（38）猜罐子里有多少豆子。（39）聽過各種荒唐錯誤的大聲猜測后，教授勉強地笑了，公布了（40）正確答案，并繼續說：“你們剛剛（41）學到了關于科學重要的一課。那就是：永遠不要（42）相信你自己的感覺。”

20年后，這位（43）女士能夠猜出來教授當時心里想的是什么。也許，他把自己（44）看作在邀請學生開啟一段激動人心的（45）發現之旅，進入一個用（46）肉眼看不到的未知世界，（這個世界）只有通過科學（47）方法才能發現。但是17歲的女孩不能接受甚至（48）拒絕這個邀請。她才剛（49）開始了解這個世界。她（50）相信她直接得來的經驗就是（51）真理。然而，教授說這是（52）錯的。他拿走了她唯一用來了解（這個世界）的（53）工具并且沒有給她任何替代品。“我記得當時感覺很渺小很（54）害怕，”女士說，“我做了我唯一能做的。我那天下午（55）退掉了那門課，并且再也沒有走近過科學。”
