For Berkshire's shareholders, myself included, the cost of this thumb-sucking has been huge. o Our consistently-conservative financial policies may appear to have been a mistake, but in my view were not. In retrospect, it is clear that significantly higher, though still conventional, leverage ratios at Berkshire would have produced considerably better returns on equity than the 23.8% we have actually averaged. Even in 1965, perhaps we could have judged there to be a 99% probability that higher leverage would lead to nothing but good. Correspondingly, we might have seen only a 1% chance that some shock factor, external or internal, would cause a conventional debt ratio to produce a result falling somewhere between temporary anguish and default.

另外我们一贯保守财务政策可能也是一种错误，不过就我个人的看法却不认为如此，回想起来，很明显的我们只要能够再多用一点财务杠杆操作(虽然较之他人还是很保守)，就可以得到远比现在每年平均 23.8%还要高的投资报酬率，即使是在 1965 年我们也可以百分之九十九地确定高一点的财务杠杆绝对只有好处没有坏处，但同时我们可能也会有百分之一的机会，不管是从内部或是外部所引发令人异想不到的因素，使得我们负债比率提高到介于一时冲高到负债倒闭之间。

And it is their sorting procedure that has made the tiffin walas so famous.

而这要归功于他们的分类流程才使得午餐递送如此出名。

Yet with America's tree-hugging new leadership in place, and with a green stimulus suddenly in vogue, the outlook for a deal at the climate jamboree in Copenhagen at the end of the year has brightened somewhat. So it was with keen anticipation that the first of a series of preparatory pow-wows opened last week in Bonn.

基于美国新任的改革派领导人和时尚界突然掀起的环保狂热，使得大家对能在今年年底哥本哈根举行的气候大会上就气候问题达成协议又多了些许期望，正因如此，人们对下周即将在伯恩举行的一系列非正式的预备讨论充满了期待。

But the geared turbofan and the open rotor are so different from each other that they will need different airframes.

但是齿轮传动涡扇发动机以及开放转子发动机之间如此巨大的差异使得他们将需要不同的飞机构型。

Therefore in the translation process the untranslatable phenomenon appeared, as well as in the practice of Chinese-English translation.

使得在翻译过程中产生了不可译的现象，在汉译英的实践活动中，也正如此。

The question, therefore, is not whether the Internet is closing us down or opening us up, but rather what assumptions make the persistence of online echo chambers—the same kinds of cliquish gatherings that have always existed on land—seem simultaneously so urgent and so hard to resolve.

因此，问题并不在於网路是让我们变得开放或封闭，而在於是什麼样的假设，使得网路回声室的存在-类似的小团体一直存在於实体世界-变得如此急迫、亟需处理。

While this book's assessment of the future of our species was gloomy, Gray seemed to be making the point that, just as we emerged from the cauldron of evolution as a remarkable accident, an improbability, so too was our demise accidental, the result of overpopulation and overconsumption that was in turn the result of a series of extraordinary adaptations (the inventions of catastrophic agriculture and what we call civilization) necessitated by a horrifically bad roll of the cosmic dice (the striking of Earth by a meteor that wobbled its orbit and caused the ice ages).

然而，这本书对于我们物种的未来的评价是消极的，格雷想要表达的是：就如我们在进化的整个过程中，像是个伟大的意外，一种不太可能的情况下，出现了人类，我们的下场也是如此偶然，在天地宇宙间，偶然的一次坏运气（流行撞上地球，摇动了它的轨道，从而导致了冰河时代），使得人口过剩和消费过量与一系列不同凡响的改变（工业的发展带了灾难，我们却称之为文明）互为因果。

I wonder what made you so misogynistic.

我想知道是什么使得你如此厌恶女人呢？

What is more, the fact that Maugham was a homosexual strengthened his misogynistic view in this novel.

正是这种神话色彩，使得男性对女人如此兴趣盎然。

Contrary to what has been understood, this essay seeks to demonstrate that universalism and particularism reinforce and supplement each other; they are never in real conflict; they need each other and have to seek to form a symmetrical, mutually supporting relationship by every means in order to avoid a dialogic encounter which would necessarily jeopardize their reputedly secure and harmonized monologic worlds.

作者不仅曝露形成这个分裂的发言位置，他还拆解所谓的西方与东方之统合性，因为正是这个说法才使得前述之发言位置，得以持续。一般认为普遍主义与特殊主义实乃水火不容，本文的论点与此相反，它试图展示，此二者相互强化，彼此补充而从未真正有所冲突；二者相互需要，亟欲结合成为自成格局，互为奥援的关系，如此，二者方始能够闪躲对话，因为双方若经对话，势必危及它们各自栖身之安全的、和谐的独白世界。

In the negative and interrogative forms, of course, this is identical to the non-emphatic forms.

。但是，在否定句或疑问句里，这种带有"do"的方法表达的效果却没有什么强调的意思。

Go down on one's knees;kneel down
