我推测，这表明那种挑剔真的会在遗传方面产生影响，尽管身高并非妇女择偶时采用的唯一标准。 "
In his opinion. Diana and Dodi were an unlikely match--the quiet rich boy and the effervescent princess--but he discounts suggestions that Fayed had somehow forced them together, even though the Harrods boss preened because the romance cast him in a good light.
以他的观点，戴安娜和多迪，文静富有的小伙子和性格开朗的王妃，是不大可能结合的。但是他也不赞成法耶德强迫这两人在一起的说法，即做这位哈罗兹商店老板沾沾自喜，因为这段罗曼史给他脸上增添了光彩。

它无法运行 Java ，但是设计者们坚持称这正是该软件的特色，而不是缺点。他们认为 Java 会减慢页面载入速度，而且除了修饰窗口以外， Java 一无所长。

Neither did I. Oddly enough though, a great number of people have been connecting always-on digital cameras to the Net, beaming back pictures even full-motion video of themselves as they putter around on their computers and about their homes.
我没有这样想。说来奇怪，许多人将老开开的数码相接上网络，一边在电脑上和家中消磨时间，一边翻看以前的照片和录像。
I was curious though, so I ventured out briefly to see what I was missing and got hold of a Logitech WebCam( $79, after a $20 mail-in rebate).

对斯大林的支持者来说，相对论是资本主义个人主义的典型代表。尽管爱因斯坦对上帝持有一斯宾诺莎式的观点，多次表示要努力了解上帝是如何塑造宇宙的，但对某些教会领袖来说，这观点意味着无神论。

Partly it's been spurred by domestic growth: though historically not big wine consumers, Australians now drink an average of 26 bottles of table wine a year more than any other English-speaking nation, although less than a third of the average Frenchman's needs.
这一方面多亏了国内消费的增长：在历史上澳大利亚并不是一个葡萄酒消费大国，但如今每个澳大利亚人平均每年要喝掉 26瓶佐餐葡萄酒这个数字超过了其它的英语国家，但是低于法国人均消费的三分之一。

伟大的喜剧艺术中的超越瞬间乃是一个社会性瞬间，源自这样一个坚定信念，即我们终是凡夫俗子，尽管我们竭力想成为神灵。
This preference for exogamy, Gutman suggests, may have derived from West African rules governing marriage, which, though they differed from one tribal group to another, all involved some kind of prohibition against unions with close kin.
古特曼表示，这种对于外部通婚的偏爱很有可能缘起于西部非洲制约着婚姻的规定，尽管这些规定在一个和另一个部落群体之间不尽相同，但都涉及到某种对近亲联姻（union with close kin）的禁止。

在认识到这一点的过程中，我们同时亦应认识到，这种单一的思维、拘泥刻板的思维、以及简单化的思维模式也构成了理论数学（theoreticalmathematics）的特征，尽管程度不至如此严重。
The physicist rightly dreads precise argument, since an argument that is convincing only if it is precise loses all its force if the assumptions on which it is based are slightly changed, whereas an argument that is convincing though imprecise may well be stable under small perturbations of its underlying assumptions.

Though historically there is a discernible break between Jewish law of the sovereign state of ancient Israel and of the Diaspora (the dispersion of Jewish people after the conquest of Israel), the spirit of the legal matter in later parts of the Old Testament is very close to that of the Talmud, one of the primary codifications of Jewish law in the Diaspora.
尽管从历史角度来看，在古代以色列作为独立主权国家的犹太教法与大流散时期（Diaspora，即以色列被征服后古代犹太人被巴比伦人逐出故土）的犹太教法之间存在着一个明晰可辨的断裂，然则，《旧约全书》（Old Testament）后半部分中法律内容的精神与《犹太教法典》（Talmud）极为一脉相承，而所谓的《犹太教法典》，是指大流散时期犹太教法的主要典籍辑录之一。
It is one of nature's great ironies that the availability of nitrogen in the soil frequently sets an upper limit on plant growth even though the plants' leaves are bathed in a sea of nitrogen gas.

Open acknowledgement of the existence of women's oppression was too radical for the United States in the fifties, and Beauvoir's conclusion, that change in women's economic condition, though insufficient by itself, "remains the basic factor" in improving women's situation, was particularly unacceptable.

Laksmi Mittal an Indian born steel tycoon enjoyed the biggest increase in personal fortune. His net worth has quadrupled to thirteen billion dollars making him the world＇third richest man. Ingvar Kamprad founder of the Swedish furniture chain Ikea also saw a big increase in wealth taking him to sixth place. Developing countries make more of a showing than in past years - there are for example three Russians and four Indians in the top sixty richest people though surprisingly perhaps none from China excluding Hong Kong. Asian wealth is probably under-represented as its usually spread among families whereas Forbes looks at individuals.
出生在印度的钢铁大亨拉什米-米塔尔的个人财富增长最快，他的净资产增长了四倍达130亿美元，使他成为了世界上第三位富有的人。瑞典宜家家居的创始人英格瓦-卡普拉德也因财富的迅速增长而上升到了第六位。发展中国家同过去相比已经有了善好的表现。除香港外，尽管前60名中没有一个来自中国内地，但是却有3个俄罗斯人和4个印度人进入。不过亚洲的统计可能不具代表性，因为他们通常都是家族式发展，而《福布斯》看重的是个人。
The WFP director said he sought to make this point in a meeting Thursday, with Burma's prime minister. He also met with some of the political opposition, though not with detained leader Aung San Suu Kyi.

At a news briefing, State Department Spokesman Richard Boucher said details of the structure and frequency of the U.S.-Chinese talks are still to be worked out, though they will be chaired on the U.S. side by Deputy Secretary of State Robert Zoellick.
美国国务院发言人鲍彻在一次新闻简报会上说，美中会谈的具体结构和次数仍在磋商中。美国方面将由美国助理国务卿佐利克主持。
A top North Korea envoy visited Beijing earlier this week amid reports Pyongyang had agreed to return to the talks as early as mid-May, though Spokesman Boucher said no such word has been conveyed to Washington.
这个星期早些时候，一位北韩高级特使访问了北京，与此同时有报道说，平壤同意最早可能在5月中旬重返谈判桌。但是鲍彻说，美国没有收到这样的信息。
At the same time, though, she said Syria's continued military presence in Lebanon in defiance of an American sponsored U.N. Security Council resolution last September is an obvious factor in political instability there. "This is a part of the destabilization that takes place when you have the kind of conditions that you do now in Lebanon thanks to Syrian interference. So we are united with the rest of the world in wanting a fulll investigation into what happened here. But there is no doubt that the conditions created by Syria's presence there have created a destabilized situation in Lebanon," she said.
与此同时，她说，叙利亚不理会美国去年推动联合国安理会去年9月通过的决议在黎巴嫩继续驻军，这显然是造成黎巴嫩政治不稳定的一个因素。她说：“这是造成不稳定的部份原因，叙利亚干预黎巴嫩就创造了这种导致不稳定的条件。因此，我们跟世界其他国家一道要求对那里发生的事情进行全面的调查，但是，毫无疑问，叙利亚在黎巴嫩的存在造成了导致黎巴嫩不稳定的条件。”
There has been no comment from Iran. But such a visit would mark the latest twist in the IAEA's long dealings with Iran over its suspected nuclear weapons program. The U.N. agency has not found hard evidence proving the country is working to produce nuclear weapons. But Tehran has acknowledged that it hid critical aspects of its civilian nuclear program for nearly two decades even though it insists all such programs are intended to produce electricity.
伊朗方面还没有对此做出评论。但这样一次访问将是国际原子能机构长期以来就伊朗可疑的核武器项目与伊朗交往中的最新进展。该机构一直没有找到确凿证据证明伊朗在生产核武器，但是德黑兰承认，20多年来一直向外界隐瞒了其民用核项目，不过伊朗坚持说，所有这类项目都是为了生产电力。
For security reasons no details of their itinerary were given, though reports from Turkey said the Deputy Secretary would arrive there next Sunday for meetings with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and other officials.
鉴于安全原因，有关方面没有提供详细行程。但是，土耳其记者说，阿米蒂奇会在星期天抵达，和埃尔多安总理以及其他官员举行会谈。
The earthquake and tidal waves struck as thousands of American and other tourists were spending year-end holidays at resorts around the Indian Ocean. Secretary Powell said hundreds of U.S. citizens remain unaccounted for, though they are not necessarily among the casualties. He said there are 11 confirmed American deaths and that a number of others are being treated for injuries.
在发生地震和海啸的时候，成千上万的美国人和其他游客正在印度洋沿岸的渡假胜地过年终假期。鲍威尔国务卿说，数百名美国公民仍然没有消息，尽管他们未必就在伤亡者之列。他说，有11名美国人证实已经遇难，还有一些人受伤，目前正在接受治疗。
Though it has increased in recent weeks, the U.N. presence still numbers less than 100 international staffers, most of them providing technical support for the January 30 elections.
虽然联合国在最近几个星期增加了在伊拉克的工作人员，但是国际职员的人数仍然不到100名，多数人在那里是为了给定于1月30号举行的选举提供技术协助。
Coalition troops have made painstaking efforts to protect mosques and Islamic shrines from the ravages of battle, even though some insurgents have used them in the past for cover and to store weapons.
联军部队已经付出艰苦的努力，保护清真寺和伊斯兰圣地免受战争的蹂躏，尽管一些反叛分子过去利用这些地方藏身和贮藏武器。
He also cites Russia, which has tightened restrictions on the technology and equipment it supplies for Iran's nuclear energy program but would be reluctant to give up the lucrative contracts. European allies still favor a dialogue and negotiations to dissuade Tehran from its nuclear pursuits even though they appear to be losing patience with Iran's defiant behavior. Washington is pushing for a much tougher approach. The next showdown for Iran is the IAEA meeting in September to review its cooperation on inspections of its facilities. But analysts say Iran probably figures it can buy time before tougher action is taken by assuming there will be no dramatic shift in the international community's strategy before the U.S. presidential elections in November.
他还提到了俄罗斯。俄罗斯开始进一步限制对伊朗核计划提供技术和设备，但它不愿放弃利益丰厚的合同。欧洲国家虽然对伊朗一意孤行的做法感到不满，但还是主张通过对话磋商来说服德黑兰放弃发展核武器。而华盛顿力图采取更加严厉的措施来解决这个问题。伊朗将在9月份面临再次摊牌， 届时，国际原子能机构会对伊朗与其在核设备检查方面的合作情况做出评估。但是分析人士说，伊朗会估计，在11月份美国大选前，国际社会对它发展核武器问题的处理策略不会有太大改变，因此在联合国采取更严厉的行动之前，它还能争取到一些时间。

(often of a paranoid or persecutory nature), psychomotor disturbances (excitement or
stupor), and an abnormal affect, which may range from intense fear to ecstasy. The

Obsessive-compulsive disorder
The essential feature is recurrent obsessional thoughts or compulsive acts. Obsessional
thoughts are ideas, images, or impulses that enter the patient's mind again and again in a
stereotyped form. They are almost invariably distressing and the patient often tries,
unsuccessfully, to resist them. They are, however, recognized as his or her own thoughts,
even though they are involuntary and often repugnant. Compulsive acts or rituals are
stereotyped behaviours that are repeated again and again. They are not inherently
enjoyable, nor do they result in the completion of inherently useful tasks. Their function
is to prevent some objectively unlikely event, often involving harm to or caused by the
patient, which he or she fears might otherwise occur. Usually, this behaviour is
recognized by the patient as pointless or ineffectual and repeated attempts are made to
resist. Anxiety is almost invariably present. If compulsive acts are resisted the anxiety
gets worse.
Includes: anankastic neurosis
obsessive-compulsive neurosis
Excludes: obsessive-compulsive personality (disorder) (F60.5)
强迫症
基本的特徵是反覆的强迫性思考或强迫性行动。强
迫性思考是指意念、心象或冲动以一种刻板的方式
， 一次又一次的进入病人的思绪当中。这些通常是
令人困扰的 ， 病人通常会试着去抵抗上述意念 ， 但
都不会成功。这些意念一向被病人认为是自己的思
考 ， 纵使他们是非志愿或厌恶的。强迫性行动或仪
式行动是一种刻板的行为 ， 被一次又一无可奈何次
的重复。这些并不令人感到愉快 ， 也不能达成有用
的任务。病人通常把这些行动视为是一种用来避免
在客观上并不可能发生的对患者或他人的伤害 ， 这
些行为通常会被病人认为是没有意义的或亳无作用
的 ， 而且屡次地想来抵抗此行动 ， 同时会有焦虑。
若试图抵抗此重覆行为 ， 焦虑会加重。
