This year she will co-star with Cuba Gooding Jr. in The Fighting Temptations

今年她将同小库巴·库丁在电影《动感诱惑》中演对手戏。

||1:Facebook has prospered by building compelling services that attract large audiences, whose attention can then be sold to advertisers.||2:The same is true of Google.||3:The two play different roles in their users’ lives: Google has masses of data about the world, whereas Facebook knows about you and your friends; you go to Google to get things done, but turn to Facebook when you have time to kill.||4:Yet their positions of dominance and their strategies are becoming remarkably similar.||5:Unparalleled troves of data make both firms difficult to challenge and immensely profitable, giving them the wealth to make bold bets and to deal with potential competitors by buying them.||6:And both firms crave more users and more data—which, for all the do-gooding rhetoric, explains why they are both so interested in extending internet access in the developing world, using drones or, in Google’s case, giant balloons.

||1:Facebook打造多个引人瞩目的服务吸引大量用户，继而将用户的关注卖给广告商，以此取得成功。||2:谷歌也是如此。||3:这两大公司在其用户的生活中扮演着不同的角色：谷歌拥有关于这个世界的大量数据，而Facebook了解你和你的朋友；你用谷歌是为了完成任务，但要打发时间时你会找Facebook。||4:然而它们的统治地位和战略正变得越来越相似。||5:无与伦比的数据宝藏让两家公司都难有敌手，且获利颇丰，它们的财富足以掷下豪注并且通过收购解决潜在竞争者。||6:这两家公司渴求更多用户、更多数据，用冠冕堂皇的说法，这解释了为何它们都对在发展中国家扩展互联网连接兴趣浓厚，Facebook使用无人机，谷歌则使用巨型气球。

||1:BETWEEN now and the presidential primary season, expect to hear more about Ben Carson.||2:Though unknown to many Americans, the retired brain surgeon is a conservative pin-up.||3:He was raised by a black single mother in Detroit, almost flunked out of school and nearly stabbed a teenage rival to death, before finding God, heading to Yale and becoming a paediatric neurosurgeon.||4:He has written several books about his life—one became a TV film (Dr Carson was played by Cuba Gooding junior).

||1:从现在到美国总统预选的日子里，很期待听说更多关于Ben Carson的消息。||2:尽管对于很多美国人来说还很陌生，这位退休脑外科医生是保守党的招牌人物。||3:Ben在底特律长大，母亲是位单身黑人妈妈，在皈依基督之前，他快要被学校退学，有过前科，将一位青少年对头几乎刺死，后来去耶鲁深造成了一名儿科神经外科医生。||4:Ben已经写了好几本关于他生活经历的书—一本已被改变成电影（Carson医生由小古巴·古丁扮演）。

||Sobar, like the Brink in Liverpool, is linked to a do-gooding drug and alcohol charity.|| But ordinary drinking dens are becoming a little drier, too, out of business sense rather than temperance principle. Pubs can make almost as much selling food as drink—and more are serving it. Both in pubs and at home, less boozy drinks are becoming popular. Total sales of beer by volume dropped slightly in the year to January, but those of the weaker kinds, with just 1.3-3.3% alcohol by volume, jumped 32%, according to Kantar Worldpanel, a market-research firm. Sales of “adult” sparkling soft drinks are growing too. Perhaps the café-culture British politicians have so long yearned for is at last emerging. A sobering thought.

||1:同利物浦的Brink一样，Sobar也与一家倡导戒毒戒酒的慈善组织有关。||||2:但是，普通的酒吧也开始迎合戒酒的风尚了，它们是出于商业的目的，而不是因为节制的原则。||3:酒吧几乎可以卖出同酒品销量一样多的食品，而且很多酒吧都在提供食物。||4:无论是在酒吧还是在家里，少饮酒都成为了一种时尚。||5:市场调查公司Kantar Worldpanel的数据显示：截止到1月份，今年来啤酒的总销量略有下降，但是酒精度数较低的品种—酒精占比为1.3-3.3%（体积比例）的啤酒——销量下降了32%。||6:成年人软饮料的销量不断增加。||7:英国政客所向往的咖啡文化或许正在涌现。这是一种有节制的理念。

Billanthropy still rules : Heeding the archbishop’s words, Bill Clinton and Bill Gates against the do-gooding agenda.

比尔慈善学仍是王道：有感于到主教的言谈，比尔克林顿和比尔盖茨重新将慈善提上日程。

But Mr Smith is hardly a do-gooding, state-loving dreamer; on the contrary, Tullett Prebon is about as ruthlessly free-market as they come.

但史密斯算不上是个行善爱国的空想家；相反，德利万邦在践行自由市场方面极其冷酷无情。

But the 10 most positive brands aren’t necessarily the do-gooding corporate entities you might expect: The top 10 are:

但是十大积极品牌可不全是你想象中的那种与人为善的实体企业。它们是：

Corporate social responsibility, once a do-gooding sideshow, is now seen as mainstream.

企业社会责任，昔日做点善事的附带表演，如今已成主流。

Many observers complain that large sums (including EU grants) budgeted for do-gooding are wasted on consultants or irrelevant projects.

也有很多观察者抱怨大量用以公益的预算（包括来自欧盟的补助金）浪费在了聘请顾问和一些无关公益的项目上了。

Tent dwellers, used to journalists and do-gooding foreigners, are now well-aware that they can play to the media.

帐篷住户们已能熟练应对记者和善心的外国人，他们清楚自己可以演戏蒙蒙媒体。
