It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all
going direct the other way—in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of
its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree
of comparison only.
它是最好的时代，也是最坏的时代；它是智慧的年代，也是愚昧的年代；它是信仰的时期，也是质疑的时期；它是光明的季节，也是黑暗的季节；它是充满希望的春天，也是令人绝望的冬天；我们前途无量，也前途渺茫；我们一起去往天堂，也一起奔赴地狱。简而言之，它与现在的时代相差无几，那些最喧嚣的权威人士坚持，不论美好或是邪恶，都只能用最高级形式的形容词来形容。

But I verily believe that come what will, the part which England may play in the battle is a grand and a noble one. She may prove to the world that, for one people, at any rate, despotism and demagogy are not the necessary alternatives of government; that freedom and order are not incompatible; that reverence is the hand-maid of knowledge; that free discussion is the life of truth, and of true unity in a nation.
然而，我确实相信，无论发生什么事情，英国在此次斗争中所起到的作用都是重要而高尚的。也许，英国会向世界证明，无论如何，对于一个民族而言，专制独裁和蛊惑煽动，并非政府的必然选择；而自主自由和规则秩序，也并非不可兼容；敬重是知识的仆佣；自由讨论是真理的关键所在，也是一个真正统一的国家生命力之所在。

This figure of speech is plain and pungent. Salt is savory, purifying, preservative. It is one of those superfluities which the great French wit defined as "things that are very necessary". From the very beginning of human history men have set a high value upon salt and sought for it in caves and by the seashore. The nation that had a good supply was counted rich. A bag of salt, among the barbarous tribes, was worth more than a man.
这个修辞手法是直率而尖刻的。盐是美味的、纯净的、防腐性的。盐被法国的智者定义为“十分必要的”奢侈品之一。人类历史伊始，人们就高度重视盐，并且在洞穴、海滨寻找盐。盐产量充裕的国家，被视为富裕国度。在未及开化的部落中，一袋盐的价值更甚于一个人的价值。

The presence of international oil companies in the Niger Delta has been a sore point with impoverished locals who are irritated that most of the profits generated from the natural resources in their region are not fed back into their communities. As a result, oil company property is often targeted for sabotage—a possible cause of the oil spills referenced in the lawsuit.
国际石油公司在尼日尔三角洲的运作一直是贫穷的当地人的一个痛点。本地的自然资源所带来的利润，大都没有反馈给当地的社区，这让他们感到愤怒。因此，石油公司的财产常常都会遭到破坏——这可能就是诉讼中所提及的石油泄漏的一个原因。

Lawyers for Kenya's Deputy President William Ruto has asked judges of the International Criminal Court to drop the charges against him. Mr. Ruto is accused committing crimes against humanity during post-election violence 8 years ago. His lawyers said the case had fallen apart because key witness had changed their evidence or just disappeared.
肯尼亚副总统威廉•鲁托的律师们向国际法庭的法官们提出请求，恳请撤销对他的指控。鲁托先生被指控在8年前选举后的暴力事件中犯有反人道罪。他的律师们声称，主要证人或是改变证词，或是消失，因此，此案已经不能成立。
