現代人什麼都要分享，但過度分享會帶來你不知道的危險 (The Dangers of Oversharing)
- This isn't to deny the fun that over-sharers can bring to social life. These won't be the types talking about the economic contraction or where they last went on holiday. Contact with other humans should be about getting to the marrow of things they believe, which is why we will quickly get to hear about their ex's sexual difficulty, the vicious row they had about their mother's will, exactly how much they earn, the troubles they have with their digestion, their favourite bedroom position and the nature of an early childhood trauma. The difficulty lies in the toll these divulgences impose on over-sharers themselves. An evening of entertainment is too often followed by a shame-ridden awakening.
這並不是否認過度分享者給社交生活帶來的樂趣。他們不會談論經濟萎縮或上次去哪裡度假。是以，我們很快就會聽到他們前男友的性難題、關於母親遺囑的惡性爭吵、他們的收入、消化問題、最喜歡的臥室姿勢以及童年創傷的性質。困難在於，這些資訊的洩露會給過度分享者本身造成傷害。一個晚上的娛樂之後，往往是羞愧難當的覺醒。
- These won't be the types talking about the economic contraction or where they last went on holiday.
我們不必因為結束了許多無聊的對話而感到無趣。我們的內心並不沉悶。我們只是在一個可能需要數月或數年的過程中，冷靜地思考，我們是否偶然發現了那些真正值得我們傾聽內心深處想法的罕見人物。

- We work on a contract and relax, we're going to do three rounds of this, so pressing hard into the weights, isometric contraction, so we're not moving at all, we're just coming up, squeezing, firing up the adductors, lifting for five seconds, relaxing, breathing out, and then allowing the knees to drop deeper into the stretch.
我們要做的是收縮和放鬆，我們要做三輪這樣的動作，用力壓住重物，等長收縮，所以我們完全不動，只是抬起來，擠壓，發力內收肌，抬起五秒鐘，放鬆，呼氣，然後讓膝蓋更深地進入拉伸狀態。
