||1:Yet there are two problems with this approach.||2:First, the regulations are so demanding and the fines so large that banks are walking away from countries and businesses where they perceive even the faintest whiff of risk.||3:American regulators, for instance, require banks to know not only who their customers are, and what they plan to do with their cash, but also the identities and intentions of their customers’ customers.||4:Correspondent-banking relationships—the arteries of global finance that allow people and firms to send money from one country to another, even if their own bank does not have a branch there—are therefore collapsing.||5:Some of world’s biggest banks privately say they are cutting as many as a third of these relationships.

||1:然而，这种方法有两个问题。||2:第一，政策非常苛刻，罚款数额巨大，大银行很可能会规避可能涉及恐怖犯罪的国家和商业领域。||3:举个例子，美国监管机构要求银行不仅了解他们的顾客、顾客投资的方向，而且他们客户的客户的身份信息和投资意图也需要了解。||4:银行交易代理是国际金融的动脉，他们让资金在全球公司之间流动，即使他们自己的银行没有设计恐怖注意，却也有有因此而破产的。||5:世界最大的一些银行私下里说他们切断这一部分业务的1/3。

||1:Where Stalin excelled, again and again, was in ruthlessness and attention to detail.||2:He paid minute attention to extending Soviet rule in places conquered at the war’s end.||3:He took great interest in details of science and cultural policy, fearing even the faintest breach in communist omniscience.||4:The results might be disastrous: but they were in accordance with communist theory, which was what mattered.

||1: Only a few months later they were sold. ||2: All but one went away to private houses. The exception was Aunt Adele. ||3: She had always wanted her golden portrait in a public gallery, Mrs Altmann said, and so it was “beautiful” that Ronald Lauder, a businessman and philanthropist who had loved Adele’s face from boyhood, instantly paid $135m to enshrine her in his Neue Galerie in Manhattan. ||4: Of course, she was too far away for many visits now. But Mrs Altmann could imagine her there, glowing and frail, wearing just the faintest aroma of those long-vanished cigarettes.

||1:也就是仅仅数月之后，尽数拍卖了回归的数画。||2:除了“姨妈阿黛尔”肖像，它们几近都被藏之于私宅深院。||3: 奥特曼道：阿黛尔一直希望自己的金色肖像能展示于公共画廊。此愿有了一个“美丽”的结局———自孩提时就喜爱阿黛尔芳容的商人、慈善家罗纳德·劳德，在拍卖场立马付费1.3亿美元，把肖像买下，置于他在曼哈顿的画廊（Neue Galerie），供若神明。 ||4:虽然，而今要常常拜见阿黛尔的话，自然是太远了点，但奥特曼尚能于此展开想像力，想像姨妈阿黛尔的热情洋溢、脆弱娇柔，想像从那已怅然远去的烟草中散发的淡淡芳香……
