这应该是合理的，因为如果一个原子有很高的电子亲和能，这意味着,它非常乐意从另外一个原子那里夺取一个电子，或者得到一个自由电子--这是非常利于发生的。

Because it says, your program will still give you a value, but it may not be what you intended, and you can't always tell, and that may propagate it's way down through a whole bunch of other computations before it causes some catastrophic failure.

因为这意味着，你的程序依然会返回一个值，但是这个值可能不是你想要的，你可能还分辨不出来，而且这种情况会传播,结果会沿着正果计算过程传播下去,直到产生一个灾难性的错误。

We can know this information even if we just knew that the bond was stronger, we wouldn't need to look at a graph here, because it turns out that if you have a stronger bond, -- that also means that you have a shorter bond -- those two are correlated.

我们依然可以得到上面的信息,即使我们所知道仅仅是这个键更强，我们不需要去看这个图，因为事实上如果你有一个更强的键，这也就意味着你有一个更短的键-,这两点是互相关联的。
