||1:Dr Bartels and Dr Pizarro then correlated the results from the trolleyology with those from the personality tests.||2:They found a strong link between utilitarian answers to moral dilemmas (push the fat guy off the bridge) and personalities that were psychopathic, Machiavellian or tended to view life as meaningless.||3:Utilitarians, this suggests, may add to the sum of human happiness, but they are not very happy people themselves.

||1: The leadership of the Labour Party was not a job which—for most of his life—he sought. ||2: When Jim Callaghan stood down as leader in 1980, the two men most likely to succeed him were Denis Healey on the right and Peter Shore on the left. ||3: But Mr Foot, by then 67, had developed a certain fond vanity which was worked on by a Machiavellian trade-union leader, Clive Jenkins, to persuade him to stand.

Apparently, yes.

||1:这并不意味着功利主义是错误的。||2:任何法律的制定－当年贝萨姆和密尔希望借其理论能够有所助益的主要行为之一－不可避免的需要牺牲一部分人的利益。||3:功利主义提供了一个比较合理的框架来决定应该牺牲谁的利益。||4:不过巴特尔斯博士和皮扎罗博士的研究提出了应该让哪种人来制定法律的质疑。||5:冷血，厚黑的厌恶人类者？从表面上来看，是的。
