  • No. 2: "Unbelievable" is the stupidest word in the dictionary.
  • 第二点:“难以置信”是字典里最愚蠢的单词。
  • It shouldn't ever come out of our mouths. Think about it.
  • 这个词永远都不应该从你们的嘴里说出来。想想看。
  • To say, "Oh wow what an unbelievable play!" "It was an unbelievable book, unbelievable film, unbelievable act of courage..." Really?
  • 说“噢哇,多么难以置信的戏剧!”“这是本难以置信的书,难以置信的电影,难以置信的英勇之举...”当真如此吗?
  • It may be spectacular, maybe phenomenal, most excellent or outstanding, but unbelievable?
  • 它可能很壮观,可能很惊人,极其出色或优异,但是难以置信么?
  • Uhuh! Give others and yourself more credit.
  • 不!给别人和自己多些信任。
  • It just happened; you witnessed it; you just did it; believe it!
  • 它就是发生了,你见证了它,你刚完成了它,所以相信它!
  • What about the other side of unbelievable?
  • “难以置信”的另一面又是怎样的呢?
  • You know that side when we humans underperform or act out of our best character.
  • 当我们人类表现不佳或者未能竭尽全力时,你们就知道另一面是什么样的了。
  • For instance, a man flies a suicide jet into the World Trade Center.
  • 例如,一个人驾驶一架喷气式飞机自杀性地撞向世贸大厦。
  • Millions die from diseases every day that we have cures for.
  • 每天都有数百万人死于我们能够治愈的疾病。
  • Bob, the builder, swears that he's gonna have your house built by Thanksgiving and you can't move in until Christmas, the next year.
  • 建筑商鲍勃发誓他能在感恩节之前造好你的房子,可你直到圣诞节,直到来年也未能搬入新家。
  • Our best friends lie to us, and we lie to ourselves all the time. Unbelievable? I don't think so.
  • 最好的朋友对我们撒谎,我们也一直对自己撒谎。这些都难以置信吗?我不这么认为。
  • Again, it just happened, and it happens every day.
  • 再次强调,它已经发生了,每天都在发生。
  • Nothing that wehomo sapiens earthlings to do is unbelievable and if there's one thing you can depend on people being is people.
  • 我们现代的凡人所做的事情没有一件是难以置信的,如果还有一件事可以相信人类是什么样子,那就是相信人类是人。
  • So we shouldn't be surprised, we us are the trickiest mammal walking on the planet!
  • 所以我们不应当感到吃惊,我们是这个星球上最复杂的哺乳动物!
  • I'm not worried about the monkeys. I'm worried about you and me.
  • 我不担心猴子。我担心的是你们和我自己。
  • So acknowledge the acts of greatness as real,
  • 所以要承认那些伟大之举是真实的,
  • and do not be naive about mankind's capacity for evil, nor be in denial of our own shortcomings.
  • 也不要天真地低估人类作恶的能力,或者否认我们自己的缺点。
  • Nothing we do is unbelievable. It is a stupid word. I think it is an un-be-lievably stupid word. That's No. 2.
  • 我们所做的事情没有一件是难以置信的。这是个愚蠢的单词。我认为这是个难以置信的愚蠢的单词。这就是第二点。
