地球的引力改变过吗?
Has Earth’s Gravitational Pull Been Changing?
地球的引力改变过吗?
Don, why are you slouching? Don’t you know it’s bad for you?
唐，为啥你无精打采?你不知道这对你不好?
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!
你知道每天大约200吨的碎片来到地球?所以我在思考。虽然这些东西中的大部分在大气中烧掉了，但是烧完后的灰尘仍然沉淀并增添地球的质量。大约每年有50万吨。
All right, but what does all this have to do with your posture?
好的，但是所有这些与你的仪态有啥关系呢?
Sit Up Straight
笔直端坐
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.
所以如果地球持续累积其质量，那不是意味着地球的引力也正在增加?毕竟，引力与质量是成比例的
Are you saying you can’t sit up straight because gravity is stronger now than it used to be?
你说你不能笔直端坐是因为地球引力比以前更强了?
Admit it, Yaeuml;l–it’s a good one.
承认这一点吧，耶尔，这是件好事。
Earth’s Mass
地球的质量
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.
地球的质量按照公制吨位来衡量大约是6后面加21个0.所以假设你的估计是正确的，并且每年地球积累50万吨的碎片，这意味着自从恐龙存在以来的6000万年，地球已经积累了大约30万亿吨的流星碎片。那是13个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
关键是13个零相对24个零而言是非常小的。虽然30万亿吨听起来很震撼，但是它与地球总的质量相比还是微不足道的。所以很明确的是额外的重力不会使得你无精打采。
1℃的爱情
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 me".
一个寒冷的冬天，一对夫妇因为破产，所以不得不从豪宅里搬出。丈夫每天辛勤工作以维持家庭开支，但很少顾及到妻子。于是，妻子暗自想道：“他不再爱我了，他只在乎他的事业，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，妻子准备洗澡，可丈夫叫住了她，“让我先洗吧。”
"Why not let me shower first," she asked.
“为什么不让我先洗呢?”
"I was tired, sweetie, you take it later, okay?" She was totally depressed.
“亲爱的，因为我很累，你之后再洗吧。”妻子为此很不开心。
On a morose day, she found nothing to do and turned on his computer, a few words blurred her was his diary:
一天，妻子无所事事，郁郁寡欢，于是打开了丈夫的电脑。上面的几行字让她的眼睛湿润了，那是他的日记。
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，我很不开心，因为她问我为什么总是我先洗澡?而我对她说，因为我太累了，想先洗。她肯定不高兴了，觉得我对她不像以前那么好了。但是我该怎么做呢?我不像以前那么有钱呀!我们搬到了一个小公寓，只有一个洗澡间，在这样的冬天洗澡真是冻死人了。但我发现，如果一个人先洗的话，浴室就会暖和的，所以每次我都第一个冲进浴室。我想，等她进去浴室时，至少暖和一两度吧。
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.
现在，我不能给她舒适的生活，带她去高级餐厅，给她买漂亮的衣服，但至少我还能给她1℃的爱情。
