自然界的冥顽力量

||1:The president's budget would not change that.||2:He has declared an end to “mindless austerity”, but does not seem to care much for the thoughtful sort either.||3:In previous budgets he offered to trim entitlements a bit in return for tax increases.||4:Republicans in Congress rejected this, and Democrats who supported the president's budget were rewarded with attack adverts in the mid-terms claiming that they wanted to raise the retirement age and slash Medicare.||5:He now proposes higher taxes, more spending and continued deficits.||6:Public debt would stay at its current level, around 75% of GDP, for the next decade.||7:By 2025, according to the bipartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, annual interest payments would rise from 1.3% to 2.8% of GDP (nearly 800 billion, or enough to pay a year's tuition at Harvard, at current prices and with no financial aid, for 18m students).

||1:奥巴马总统的预算案亦不能扭转乾坤。||2:他叫停了“愚蠢的紧缩”，但却似乎也不想做出什么深思熟虑的安排。||3:在之前的预算案中，他提议削减福利开支开增加税收。||4:国会中的共和党对此表示反对，而支持预算案的民主党人所得到的回报，是在中期选举时，他们受到负面宣传的攻击，称他们想要提高退休年龄并削减医疗保险。||5:如今，总统提议提高进一步提高税率，增加开支，继续赤字局面。||6:在接下来的十年，国债继续保持在国民生产总值的75%左右，基本不变。||7:据两党共同参与的尽责联邦预算委员会，在2025年之前，利息在国民生产总值中所占的比例将从1.3%上升到2.8%，约8000亿美元，按照当前物价水平，在不考虑任何助学金的情况下，足够为1800万学生支付哈佛大学一年的学费。

||1:The march of the climate-protest movement has led to the coining of disparaging terms by its critics.||2:Italian, for example, has gretini: allegedly mindless followers of Ms Thunberg (-ini is a diminutive suffix, and the word echoes cretini, or “idiots”).||3:The Danish Language Council and Denmark’s national broadcaster jointnot ly chose a similar term as their Word of the Year for 2019: klimatosse, or “climate fool”, used dismissively by Pia Kjaersgaard, a right-wing Danish politician, to explain her party’s poor election performance.||4:Being Danish, she hastened to add that her party is itself concerned about the climate, but that the klimatosser who voted for other parties apparently care about nothing else.

||1:抗议气候变化运动的进行引起了批评者们的轻蔑言辞。||2:例如，意大利语中就有gretini：据说是桑伯格女士的盲目追随者(-ini是一个小后缀，与cretini这个词相呼应，英语是“idiots（白痴）”。||3:丹麦语言委员会和丹麦国家广播公司选择了一个类似的词作为他们2019年的年度词汇：klimatosse，英语为“climate fool（气候傻瓜）”，丹麦右翼政治家皮娅?克亚斯高对她的政党在选举中的糟糕表现不屑一顾。||4:作为丹麦人，她急忙补充说，她的政党本身就关心气候，但是投票给其他政党的“klimatosser（气候傻瓜）”显然不关心其他事情。

||1:Of course the AI system is designed from the top down, by an intelligent designer, to perform a specific task.||2:But there is no reason why something similar couldn't be built up from the bottom.||3:Start with nerve cells.||4:They are certainly not conscious, at least in any interesting sense, and so invulnerable to further regress.||5:Yet like the mindless single-cell organisms from which they have evolved, each is able to secure the energy and raw materials it needs to survive in the competitive environment of the brain.

||1:人工智能系统当然是由一位有智慧的设计师，为了完成某项特殊的任务，按照由上至下的原则设计出来的。||2:既然如此，那么就没有理由不能按照从下至上的原则建造一个同样的系统。||3:以神经细胞为例，这些细胞当然是没有意识的，他们几乎没有任何有趣的感觉，它们非常脆弱，再也经不起进一步的回归。||4:然而，就像它们从中进化而来的、没有思维能力的单细胞器官一样，这些神经细胞中的每一个都具备获取所需的能量和原料的能力，这种能力确保它们能在互相竞争的大脑环境中生存下去。||5:那些茁壮成长的神经细胞之所以这样做，是因为他们“串联在一起时的工作效率更高，对[更高]层次那些更有影响力的趋势做出了贡献，而这些更高的层次可以辨识大量的人类意识。

||1: From the opening page, he makes it plain that this is a very different book. ||2: “It was the cruellest winter. The winds were rabid off the rivers. Ice came down like poisoned darts…They were waiting for him. They didn't know they were waiting for him.” ||3: The novel seizes readers by the lapels with a story that feels serious and mysterious. ||4: Tim Farnsworth, a successful Manhattan lawyer in his 40s, returns home one night and declares to his wife, Jane, “It's back.” ||5: What's back? A strange, unknown disease—one that compels the hero to walk helplessly, incessantly, until he drops from exhaustion. ||6: After a reprieve, Tim is once again a victim of his wayward body, “the frightened soul inside the runaway train of mindless matter, peering out from the conductor's car in horror.”

||Barack Obama presented a $4 trillion budget that he said is intended “to replace mindless austerity with smart investments”.|| It includes plans to increase capital-gains tax for top earners from 23.8% to 28%, various levies on business and expanded tax credits for the less well-off. The Republicans who control Congress will not pass it.
