地球的引力改變過嗎?
Has Earth’s Gravitational Pull Been Changing?
地球的引力改變過嗎?
Don, why are you slouching? Don’t you know it’s bad for you?
唐，為啥你無精打采?你不知道這對你不好?
Did you know that about 200 tons of debris strike the Earth every day? So I was thinking! Although most of this stuff burns up in the atmosphere, the resulting dust still settles and adds to the Earth’s mass. That’s about half a million tons per year!
你知道每天大約200噸的碎片來到地球?所以我在思考。雖然這些東西中的大部分在大氣中燒掉了，但是燒完後的灰塵仍然沉澱並增添地球的質量。大約每年有50萬噸。
All right, but what does all this have to do with your posture?
好的，但是所有這些與你的儀態有啥關係呢?
Sit Up Straight
筆直端坐
So if the earth keeps accumulating mass, doesn’t that mean that the Earth’s gravitational pull has been increasing? After all, gravity is directly proportional to mass.
所以如果地球持續累積其質量，那不是意味著地球的引力也正在增加?畢竟，引力與質量是成比例的
Are you saying you can’t sit up straight because gravity is stronger now than it used to be?
你說你不能筆直端坐是因為地球引力比以前更強了?
Admit it, Yaeuml;l–it’s a good one.
承認這一點吧，耶爾，這是件好事。
Earth’s Mass
地球的質量
Earth’s mass in metric tons is approximately six followed by twenty-one zeroes. So assuming that your estimate is correct, and the Earth accumulates a half a million tons of debris every year, this means that in the sixty million years since dinosaurs existed the Earth would have accumulated approximately thirty trillion tons of meteoric debris. That’s thirteen zeroes.
地球的質量按照公制噸位來衡量大約是6後面加21個0.所以假設你的估計是正確的，並且每年地球積累50萬噸的碎片，這意味著自從恐龍存在以來的6000萬年，地球已經積累了大約30萬億噸的流星碎片。那是13個0。
The point is that a number with thirteen zeroes is minuscule relative to a number with twenty-four zeroes. While thirty trillion tons sounds impressive, it is nothing compared to the Earth’s total mass. So it’ s definitely not all that extra gravity that’s making you slouch
關鍵是13個零相對24個零而言是非常小的。雖然30萬億噸聽起來很震撼，但是它與地球總的質量相比還是微不足道的。所以很明確的是額外的重力不會使得你無精打采。
1℃的愛情
In a cold winter, a couple had to move out from the luxury villa because of bankruptcy. The husband worked day and night to support the family but with no care of his wife. So she thought, "he doesn't love me any more, he just cares his business...not me".
一個寒冷的冬天，一對夫婦因為破產，所以不得不從豪宅裡搬出。丈夫每天辛勤工作以維持家庭開支，但很少顧及到妻子。於是，妻子暗自想道：“他不再愛我了，他只在乎他的事業，而不是我。”
One day, she began to take a bath, he stopped her at the door, "Let me take it first, okay?"
一天，妻子準備洗澡，可丈夫叫住了她，“讓我先洗吧。”
"Why not let me shower first," she asked.
“為什麼不讓我先洗呢?”
"I was tired, sweetie, you take it later, okay?" She was totally depressed.
“親愛的，因為我很累，你之後再洗吧。”妻子為此很不開心。
On a morose day, she found nothing to do and turned on his computer, a few words blurred her eyes..it was his diary:
一天，妻子無所事事，鬱鬱寡歡，於是打開了丈夫的電腦。上面的幾行字讓她的眼睛溼潤了，那是他的日記。
Today, I was quite sad, she asked me why I was always taking the bath first, and I said to her, I was exhausted. She was unhappy, in her mind, I treated her not as well as usual, but how can I do? I was not as rich as before! We moved to the small apartment, there was only a shower in the bathroom, it was so cold to take a shower in such a freezing winter. But I found that if one person took the shower first, the room could get a little warm, so every time I rushed to the bathroom first. I was thinking that, when she took the shower, the room would get warmer, at least 1℃， 2℃ or 3℃。
今天，我很不開心，因為她問我為什麼總是我先洗澡?而我對她說，因為我太累了，想先洗。她肯定不高興了，覺得我對她不像以前那麼好了。但是我該怎麼做呢?我不像以前那麼有錢呀!我們搬到了一個小公寓，只有一個洗澡間，在這樣的冬天洗澡真是凍死人了。但我發現，如果一個人先洗的話，浴室就會暖和的，所以每次我都第一個衝進浴室。我想，等她進去浴室時，至少暖和一兩度吧。
Now I can't give her comfortable life, bring her the luxury restaurant, buy expensive dresses for her, but at least, I can give her 1℃ love.
現在，我不能給她舒適的生活，帶她去高階餐廳，給她買漂亮的衣服，但至少我還能給她1℃的愛情。
