He is exclusively concerned with fiction and how we read fiction, how we come to understand fiction, and how we determine the meaning of a work of fiction.

他只关注文学，以及我们怎样读文学，怎样来理解文学，怎样确定一部文学作品的意义。

You don't really puzzle your head about questions of interpretation, how we determine the validity of interpretation and so on, until A) meaning becomes terribly important to you, and B) the ascertainment of meaning becomes difficult.

你一般不会在诠释，和如何确定诠释的正确与否，这样的问题上纠结，除非：1，意义对你来说很重要，2，确定意义很困难。

"It needs to be fully vetted, and when it is then we'll determine a number that makes sense for the security and stability of Afghanistan, that the Afghan government and its people can sustain with the assistance of coalition partners,".

We might be asked, for example, to determine what all of the different elements could be that would produce a spectrum that gave us 5 different lines.

那么我们会问，比如，有哪些不同的元素可以产生,一个有五条分立谱线的光谱？

And so, we'll be able of follow that further and see really how to determine the direction of spontaneity for a whole set of processes,really in principle for any processes, went analyzed properly.

我们接下来，就进一步看看,怎么确定一个,任意自发物理,过程的方向，的整个过程。

Holy things are holy because they are removed from the realm of the common by means of rules or safeguards that demarcate them as different and separate and determine that we use them differently. The preservation of holy status therefore depends on those rules and safeguards.

神圣的东西之所以神圣是因为,它们通过规则和保护措施远离了普通的界域,这些保护将它们划分为是与众不同的，并且决定了,我们应该不一样地使用它们，神圣状态的保留时间长短,取决于这些规则和保护措施。

So now we're done, actually there is one more step, which is to determine the formal charge.

那么我们现在做完了，实际上应该还有一步，那就是确定形式电荷。

- So the first thing that we want to do, if we're thinking about something like this, is just to determine exactly what orbitals are causing the five different lines that we're seeing in the spectrum.

我们要做的最要紧的事，如果我们在思考这种问题的话，其实只不过是,准确地确定哪些轨道会导致,这五条分立谱线在光谱中出现。

Once we enter society, once we engage or conclude the social compact, we transfer our power to do this to the sovereign to determine these matters for us.

一旦我们进入到社会,参与到缔结的社会契约中，我们就已经把这些权力让渡给了国家,由国家来替我们决定这些事物。

If I went on and told you what the different incident light was, and what the electrons were ejected with, and then you could look up the ionization energy for the particular different elements, you should be able to actually determine exactly which element it is, but just with the information given, we can only narrow it down to these choices here.

如果我继续告诉大家入射光源是什么，出射电子的动能是多少，那么你可以去查一查,以上各个元素的电离能，这样你就应该能确定,这个元素到底是哪个，但是只凭题目中的信息，我们只能把范围缩小至以上几种元素。

But we could, for example, look at a case where we have several different structures that look pretty good, and the one we want to determine as being the lowest energy structure is the one in which the absolute values of the formal charges are going to be lower, so essentially that they have less charge separation.

但是我们可能，比如，遇到一种情况,有好几个候选的路易斯结构看起来都挺好的，这时候我们就需要,通过比较哪个形式电荷的绝对值更低,来决定哪个结构的能量更低，本质上这个结构中分开的电荷更少。
