沉寂的春天

The core network slumped from first in the ratings to fourth, as a generation of popular shows –Friends, Frasier and ER –came to an end.

当《老友记》、《弗莱泽》和《急诊室的春天》这一代流行电视剧归于沉寂后，其核心有线电视网络的收视率排名从第一降到了第四。

The Perfect Storm, Silent Spring, and Unsafe at Any Speed all rolled into one.

这是《完美风暴》、《沉寂的春天》、《任何速度都不安全》的结合体。

Here comes spring, a season filled with energy.After a winter-long silence,the campus turns out alive again.Here you see boys playing basketball.They jump ,they run,they dribble all over the court,bringing vigor close to us all.

春天迈着其矫健的步伐走来，沉寂了一冬的操场也开始有活力涌现，那一个个在篮球场上奔跑，跳跃，时而上篮，时而运球的男孩子的身影，俨然成了一道动态的风景。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
