1:Overall, however, Mr Hastings does an admirable job of weaving together deeply personal stories with great events and high strategy.2:This raises the question of whether another book covering essentially the same ground is necessary.3:The answer depends on what the reader is looking for.4:Mr Beevor, who is known for using the sometimes unbearably moving diaries and letters of ordinary soldiers to shed new light on old battles, is otherwise less generous than Mr Hastings in the space he gives to primary sources.5:He has written what is in many ways a more conventional military history.6:But where he is good, he is very good.

1:不过总体上，马克斯·哈斯丁在将人物故事、重大事件与高层决策编纂成书方面十分出色。2:这就让人有以下疑问：是否有必要再出另一本题材一样的书。3:答案取决于读者的诉求。4:众所周知，安东尼·比弗用了普通士兵的日记和书信（其中一些十分感人）重新诠释过往的战役，但他引用的第一手资料却比马克斯·哈斯丁少。5:在很多方面他的书都更像一本传统的军事史。6:但在他所擅长的方面，简直一流。

1: Setting out on an ocean voyage, with water in gourds and pounded tubers tied up in leaves, he would point his canoe into the right slant of wind, and then along a path between a rising star and an opposite, setting one. With his departure star astern and his destination star ahead, he could keep to his course. 2: By day he was guided by the rising and setting sun but also by the ocean herself, the mother of life. 3: He could read how far he was from shore, and its direction, by the feel of the swell against the hull. 4: He could detect shallower water by colour, and see the light of invisible lagoons reflected in the undersides of clouds. 5: Sweeter-tasting fish meant rivers in the offing; groups of birds, homing in the evening, showed him where land lay.

1:出海时，葫芦里装着饮水，叶子上系着干粮，他让小船和风形成一个固定的角度，沿着一颗升起的星星，和对面一颗正落下的星星形成的直线航行。2:白天有时候靠太阳指方向，有时候靠大海这生命的母亲指方向。3:通过船身感受水流，判断海岸的方向和距离。4:通过海水的颜色判断水深，通过天上云底的反光判断远方的礁湖。5:如果鱼的味道比平常甜点，就意味着淡水河离这里不远，如果傍晚有鸟群回家，就指示陆地的方向。

1: On that month-long trip he carried no compass, sextant or charts. 2: He was not against modern instruments on principle. A compass could occasionally be useful in daylight; and, at least in old age, he wore a chunky watch. 3: But Mau did not operate on latitude, longitude, angles, or mathematical calculations of any kind. 4: He walked, and sailed, under an arching web of stars moving slowly east to west from their rising to their setting points, and knew them so well—more than 100 of them by name, and their associated stars by colour, light and habit—that he seemed to hold a whole cosmos in his head, with himself, determined, stocky and unassuming, at the nub of the celestial action.

1:在那一个月的航行里，他没有带指南针，没有六分仪，也没有任何图纸。2:他并不是个反对使用现代仪器的人，白天里指南针偶尔也能用下，年纪大的时候他也开始戴个笨笨的手表。3:不过，他不使用经度、纬度、角度等，也不做任何数学计算。4:行走，或航海，就在苍穹之下，头顶是东升西落慢慢移动的星星，他熟悉星星，能说出100多个星星的名字，每个颗星的位置、颜色、亮度，他的脑子里似乎装着整个宇宙，那个宇宙，与性格坚定、身材健壮结实、为人谦逊的他，就是这次航行的核心。

1:On the face of things, this result suggests that what really gets people's goat is not so much having money taken, but having it taken in a way that makes the taker better off than the victim.2:That will clearly bear further investigation, for example by looking at the case where the first player begins the game better off than the second.3:It is intriguing, though, that even such trivial sums of money can provoke thoughts of revenge.4:In light of this, the fate awaiting those astronomically paid bankers could be a particularly nasty one.

1:乍一看，这样的结果意味着真正让人感到愤恨的不是自己的钱被拿走，而是拿走钱的人在拿走钱后财产比受害者多。2:显然这个结论需要更多的调查加以证明，比如假如从一开始甲的钱就比乙多，结果会如何。3:有意思的是，就是这么不起眼的几十美分也能激发人的报复心理。4:从这一点看来，等待着那些拿着超高薪待遇的银行家们的命运颇为险恶。
