根据艾斯快尔的报道说，“如果你正在经历某种不愉快——比如说牙根管治疗——闻一闻婴儿爽身粉的味道能够让你觉得时间跑的速度快了高达57%。”

“If you’re going through something unpleasant—like a root canal—the smell of baby powder will help you feel as if time were going by faster by up to 57 percent,” reports Esquire.

虽然目前这种材料有柔性，但它们还不能像传统硅晶体管那样制造得体积小，运行速度快。

Although they are flexible, they are not as small or fast as silicon transistors.

当温度达到3000开尔文（Kelvin，热力热温度，等于摄氏温度加273），这个热量环（ring of heat）沿着纳米管移动的速度将比这类化学反应（chemicalreaction）的正常传递速度快10000倍。

With a temperature of 3,000 kelvins, this ring of heat speeds along the tube 10,000 times faster than the normal spread of this chemical reaction.

But a point I'm trying to make is, it sounds like anymore computers have gotten so blazingly fast, why should you worry about it?

但是这里我要讲的一点是，在任何一台计算机,都能这么快的运算的情况下，我们还管效率这个问题干嘛呢？
