原文:IN the 18th century, agriculturalists began to assert a new degree of control over nature, nowhere more so than in Britain. One result was that in the course of the century the weight of ordinary English cattle and sheep at slaughter nearly doubled; another was the emergence by the century's end of prize stock breeding, with individual bulls and cows receiving awards, fetching unprecedented prices, and exciting enormous interest when they were put on show.
