| 6. 愛情中的薛定諤的貓理論 |
|
| Sheldon: In 1935, Erwin Schrodinger, in an attempt to explain the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum physics, he proposed an experiment where a cat is placed in a box with a sealed vial of poison that will break open at a random time. Now, since no one knows when or if the poison has been released until the box is opened, the cat can be thought of as both alive and dead... |
謝爾頓：1935年，為了說明哥本哈根學派對于量子物理學的理解，歐文?薛定諤提出了一個實驗。他假設(shè)：將一只貓和一小瓶密封的毒藥一起放進盒子中，而毒藥會在某個時間發(fā)生泄露。這樣一來，在打開盒子之前，沒有人知道毒藥何時釋放，或者是否已經(jīng)釋放出來；因此可以認為，這只貓?zhí)幱凇凹仁腔畹摹⒂质撬赖摹悲B加狀態(tài)…… |
| Just like Schrodinger's cat, your potential relationship with Leonard right now can be thought of as both good and bad. It is only by opening the box that you'll find out which it is. |
根據(jù)同一理論，你（彭妮）和萊納德即將發(fā)展的這段關(guān)系當前可認為正處于“既妙不可言、又糟糕透頂”的疊加態(tài)。想要知道到底是哪一種情況，你必須首先打開盒子。 |
| 7. 如何接近沉睡中的女性 |
|
| Sheldon: Evolution has made women sensitive to high-pitched noises while they sleep so that they'll be roused by a crying baby. |
謝爾頓：人類進化所致，女性在睡眠中對音調(diào)高的噪音特別敏感，便于她們被哭鬧的嬰兒喚醒。 |
| If you want to avoid waking her, speak in a lower register. |
如果你不想吵醒她，請將講話聲調(diào)維持在低音區(qū)以內(nèi)。 |
| 8. “無語了”的科學闡釋 |
|
| Sheldon: Penny's emotional response is originated in the primitive portion of the brain known as the amygdala. While speech is centered in the much more recently developed neo-cortex. The former can easily overpower the latter, giving scientific credence to the notion of being "rendered speechless." Or maybe she just doesn't want to talk. |
謝爾頓：彭妮的情緒反應(yīng)來源于人類大腦中比較原始的部分，也就是扁桃核結(jié)構(gòu)；而話語功能則產(chǎn)生自后來才進化出的新大腦皮層。前者可以輕易統(tǒng)治后者。這就是“無語了”這個概念從科學角度的詮釋?；蛘咚皇遣幌胝f話。 |
| 9. 星座學說之本質(zhì) |
|
| Sheldon: It tells us that you participate in the mass cultural delusion that the sun's apparent position relative to arbitrarily defined constellations at the time of your birth somehow affects your personality. |
謝爾頓：我們由此得知你被某種大眾文化妄想所蒙蔽，竟然相信你出生當時當?shù)赜^測到的太陽與胡亂劃定的所謂星座之間的相對位置神秘地影響了你的性格。 |
| 10. 心靈運輸?shù)闹旅毕?/strong> |
|
| Sheldon: Here's the problem with teleportation. Assuming a device could be invented, which would identify the quantum state of matter of an individual in one location and transmit that pattern to a distant location for reassembly. |
謝爾頓：心靈運輸（心靈學用語，指將物質(zhì)從某一時空點瞬間傳送至另一時空點）存在著一個問題。假設(shè)有人發(fā)明了一種裝置，可以識別構(gòu)成人類個體的物質(zhì)的量子狀態(tài)，然后將這種量子模式從一個地點傳送至另一個地點并重新組合。 |
| You would not have actually transported the individual; you would have destroyed him in one location and recreated him in another. |
事實上你并非傳送了該個體，你是在一個地點將之摧毀，又在另一個地點使其再現(xiàn)。 |
| Personally, I would never use a transporter because the original Sheldon would have to be disintegrated in order to create a new Sheldon. |
就我個人來說，我永遠不會使用生命傳輸機。因為只有原始的謝爾頓被分解，才能創(chuàng)造出一個新的謝爾頓。 |
