As

a

description

of

the

next

music

director

of

an

orchestra

that

has

hitherto

been

led

by

musicians

like

A

and

B,

that

seems

likely

to

have

struck at least some

Times

readers as faint praise.

迄今为止，

这个管弦乐队一直被像

< p>
A

和

B

一类的音乐家指导 。

而如今，

C

即将成为它的指导。对< /p>

C

的这种描述看上去震惊了许多人，至少

Times

杂志的读者们被深深震住了，这些读者们将这种评论看作昏了

头的赞扬。

One

possible

response

is

for

classical

performers

to

program

attractive

new music that is not yet available on record.

对古典乐曲演奏者来说，

一个可能的反应是为

（唱片未能提供的有吸

引力的）新音乐安排节目。

Allen

’

s

contribution

was

to

take

an

assumption

we

all

share-

that

because we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts- and reveal

its erroneous nature.

艾伦的贡献在于抓住了我们都认可的假设（即由 于我们不是机器人，

因此我们能够控制自己的思想）并揭露它错误的本质。

While

we

may

be

able

to

sustain

the

illusion

of

control

through

the

conscious

mind

alone

,

in

reality

we

are

continually

faced

with

a

question:

”

Why cannot

I make myself do this or achieve that?”

尽管我们或许能够

仅凭 借显意识

维持控制思想的持错觉

，

但实 际上我

们却不断地面临着一个问题：

“我们为什么不能让自己做 成这件事或

完成那个目标呢？”

*This

seems

a

justification

for

neglect

of

those

in

need,

and

a

rationalization of exploitation, of

the superiority of those at the top

and

inferiority of those at the bottom

.

这似乎证明了忽视那些需要帮助的人是合理的 ，

而且剥削别人、

上

层

的人优越

、

底层的人卑微的现象也是合理的

< p>
。

Circumstances seem to be designed to bring out the best in us, and if we

feel

that

we

have

been

“

wronged

”

then

we

are

unlikely

to

begin

a

conscious effort

to escape from our situation.

环境似乎旨在激发我们表现出最好的一面，

而且如果我们觉察到自己

被不公正的对待了，那么不太可能

自觉地努力

< br>摆脱现状。

Ps.

灰色部分要参照前后文

The

upside

is the possibilities contained in knowing that everything is up

to us; where before we were experts in the array of limitations, now we

become authorities of what is possible.

< p>
积极的一面

在于，

由于我们知道一切取决于我们自 己，

所以我们会创

造更多可能；

从前我 们能够很好的应付一系列局限性，

现如今我们能

够应付任何可能 出现的情况。

Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to

the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them.

科学家们将精力投入到对鸟类的营 救中，

因为一个不可靠的证据表明，

如果没有鸟类对昆虫的成功 抑制，我们将会被昆虫吃光。

But we have at least drawn nearer to the point of admitting that birds

should continue as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence

or absence of economic advantage to us.

但是我们至少已几乎承认，

不论鸟类对我们有无经济价值，

出于其本

身固有的权利，它们都应继续生存下去。

< br>

Time

was

when

biologists

somewhat

overworked

the

evidence

that

these

creatures

preserve

the

health

of

game

by

killing

the

physically

weak, or that they prey only on

“

worthless

”

species.

有段时间，< /p>

科学家们有些滥用这样一种证据，

即这些物种通过捕杀身

体虚弱的个体保持着猎物种群的健康，

或者说它们只捕猎那些没有价

值的物种。

In

Europe,

where

forestry

is

ecologically

more

advanced,

the

noncommercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest

community, to be preserved as such, within reason.

在林业从生态学观点看来更加先进的欧洲，

< p>
那些没有商业价值的树种

合理的被当成本地森林群落的成员，因此应该得到 相应的保护。

Television is one of the means by which these feelings are created and

conveyed- and perhaps never before has it served so much to connect

different peoples and nations in the recent events in Europe.

电视是引起并传递这些感受的手段之一，在欧洲最近发生的事件中，< /p>

它把不同的民族和国家联系在一起，起作用之大，前所未有。

This alone demonstrates that the television business is not an easy world

to survive in, a fact underlined by statistics that show that out of eighty

European television networks, no less than 50% took a loss in 1989.

只这一点便证明了，

在电视行业生存并非易事，

统计数据也凸显了这

一事实，在

1989

年

80< /p>

家欧洲电视网中半数以上经历了亏损。

Creating

a

“

European

identity

”

that

respects

the

different

cultures

and

traditions

which

go

to

make

up

the

connecting

fabric

of

the

Old

Continent is no easy task and demand a strategic choice.

尊重文化传统差异是连接起古老大陆的纽带，< /p>

而创造一个尊重不同文

化传统的

“欧洲特 色”

是一个艰巨的任务，

并需要做出战略性的选择。
