He call'd me one Morning into his Chamber, where he confined by the Gout, and expostulated very warmly me upon this Subject: He ask'd me what Reasons more a meer wandring inclination I had for leaving my Father House and my native Country, where I might be well introduced, and had a Prospect of raising my Fortunes Application and Industry, with a Life of Ease and Pleasure He told me it was for Men of desperate Fortunes on one Hand, or of aspiring, Superior Fortunes on the other, who went abroad upon Adventures, to rise by Enterprize, and make themselves famous in Undertakings of a Nature out of the common Road; that these things were all either too far above me, or too far below me; that mine was the middle State, or what might be called the upper Station of Low Life, which he had found by long Experience was the best State in the World, the most suited to human Happiness, not exposed to the Miseries and Hardships, the Labour and Sufferings of the mechanick Part of Mankind, and not embarass'd with the Pride, Luxury, Ambition and Envy of the upper Part of Mankind.

一天早晨，他把我叫进他的卧室；因为，那时他正好痛风病发作，行动不便。他十分恳切地对我规劝了一番。他问我，除了为满足我自己漫游四海的癖好外，究竟有什么理由要离弃父母，背井离乡呢？在家乡，我可以经人引荐，在社会上立身。如果我自己勤奋努力，将来完全可以发家致富，过上安逸快活的日子。他对我说，一般出洋冒险的人，不是穷得身无分文，就是妄想暴富；他们野心勃勃，想以非凡的事业扬名于世。但对我来说，这样做既不值得，也无必要。

Supporters of the tax argue that a cap-and-trade system, especially one that would be global enough to mitigate the 8 billion tons of carbon the world now emits, would be too difficult to administer—and too easily gamed by industries looking to sidestep emissions caps.

支持碳税人们认为这样一个配额体制，尤其要具有成为全球性体制，以能足已降低世界排放的80亿吨，将会是非常困难监管，而且很容易让期望避开排放限额的行业钻空子。

TOO often, the multi-millionaire autobiography is a shoddy, self-serving, ghostwritten affair, pandering only to a reader's fantasies about whether they too have what it takes to become so wealthy.

通常，千万富翁的自传都只是虚有其表，极其自我，只不过是枪手的作品而已，迎合读者的喜好，让读者评判一下自己是与否具有成为百万富翁的条件。这样的批评可不

Personally I was too shocked and too grossed out to eat further, but my cousin consented to it.

我和朋友只想悠闲的享受一顿午膳，也就不说什麼，免得坏了心情。

As he recovered,it was clear he was too habituated to humans and too mentally impaired to go back

灰熊逐渐康复，但很明显它已经十分习惯和人生活在一起，而且神经损伤过大，也不适宜再回到野外生活。

I hurdled up uneasily in the bed, flinging the grievance against my wife; while I knew I behaved unreasonably and shamelessly. But I sensed all of these are too many for me to take, and I was groaning under a huge and strange pressure, which is pushing humanity towards an abyss. I witnessed those tragedies that too many people tortured themselves willingly. I felt the peoples were struggling to be the obedient slaves of the stools they created, and those stools spoiled their spirituality like a tyrant.

我蜷缩成一团，对我的爱人发脾气，我知道我的脾气发得毫无道理，我只是觉得生命给了我太多的压力，我看到了太多的人在折磨他们自己，我感到人类在朝着某个深渊坠下去，我总觉得人们在努力做他们创造出来的工具的好奴隶，工具像暴君的屠刀在斩杀人类的灵性。

But English majors have too much to do, too much reading and endless papers to write.

但是英语专业的学生有太多的事情要做。

But when we see a lot of framed timbers, different portions of which we know have been gotten out at different times and places and by different workmen,--Stephen, Franklin, Roger, and James, for instance,--and when we see these timbers joined together, and see they exactly make the frame of a house or a mill, all the tenons and mortices exactly fitting, and all the lengths and proportions of the different pieces exactly adapted to their respective places, and not a piece too many or too few, not omitting even scaffolding--or, if a single piece be lacking, we see the place in the frame exactly fitted and prepared to yet bring such piece in--in such a case we find it impossible not to believe that Stephen and Franklin and Roger and James all understood one another from the beginning, and all worked upon a common plan or draft drawn up before the first blow was struck....

然而，当我们看到这许多木料组成的构架，它们不同的部件在不同的时间和地点由不同的工匠所造出──斯蒂芬、弗兰克林、罗杰和詹姆斯等等──当我们看到这些木料拼在一起，看到它们天衣无缝地组成了一座房子或一间工作坊的构架，所有的掉头和榫眼密切结合，一切构件的长度和大小都使其精确地各归其位，一块也不多，一块也不少，甚至也没忘了搭置脚手架──或者说如果构件少了一块的话，构架上也留下了一处空位来补其所缺──在这种情况下，我们觉得不可能不相信斯蒂芬、弗兰克林、罗杰和詹姆斯从一开头就心照不宣，共同制定出一个计划或方案，然后打出第一拳

If rock compressibility is calculated by the elastic modulus method, its results are relatively reasonable. But if it is calculated by the Hall Plate empirical formula, the value of rock compressibility is too large. Thai's to say, it overvalues the elastic energy of formation rocks. And the velocity of pressure drawdown of the gas reservoir numerical simulation is caused to be too slow.

由Hall图版经验公式法计算得到的岩石压缩系数偏大，即对地层岩石的弹性能量估计偏大，从而导致气藏数值模拟计算的压降速度偏慢；而采用弹性模量法计算岩石压缩系数，其结果相对较为合理。

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。

The relationship between communicative competence and grammar teaching should be that of the ends and the means.

交际能力和语法的关系应该是目标与途径的关系。
