【万物简史】PART II CH 6势不两立的科学（26）

听力简介：

两人当中，柯普的科学成果要多得多。在他极其勤奋的一生中，他写出了大约1400篇学术论文，描述了近1300种新的化石；而马什的晚年是在纽黑文一栋富丽堂皇的房子里度过的。在人生最后的几年里，柯普产生了另一个有意思的念头。他殷切希望自己被宣布为"人类"的模式标本，缺料死后人们发现他的骨头显示出患了早期梅毒的症状~~~

Of the two, Cope's scientific legacy was much the more [-1-]. In a [-2-] industrious career, he wrote some 1400 learned papers and described almost 1300 new species of fossil (of all types, not just dinosaurs)—more than double Marsh's output in both cases. Cope might have done even more, but unfortunately he went into a rather precipitate descent in his later years. [---3---] He ended up living in a single room in a Philadelphia boarding house, surrounded by books, papers, and bones. Marsh [-4-] finished his days in a [-5-] mansion in New Haven. Cope died in 1897, Marsh two years later.

In his final years, Cope developed one other interesting obsession. It became his earnest wish to be declared the type specimen for Homo sapiens —that is, that his bones would be the official [-6-] the human race. Normally, the type specimen of a species is the first set of bones found, but since no first set of Homo sapiens bones exists, there was a [-7-] , which Cope desired to fill. [---8---] To that end, Cope willed his bones to the Wistar Institute, a learned society in Philadelphia endowed by the descendants of the seemingly inescapable Caspar Wistar. [---9---] So Cope's petition and his bones were quietly shelved. There is still no type specimen for modern humans.
