楼主仔细看看楼上这几个人的翻译，没发现他们的译文是出自同一人之手吗？不对，应该是说出自同一机器之手。光看第一句就知道是用机器翻译的，“科学”在你的汉语句子中是主语放在最后，但是英语一定要避免头重脚轻，所以science应该放在最前面，而前面的那一系列修饰词应该放到science之后，这一点翻译机器是无法做到的。

我的天哪，这么多专业词汇，完全两眼一抹黑，我是一边查词一边翻译，竟然花了接近40分钟，手早就敲得酸了，LZ你如果对我的译文满意的话是不是得给我再加点分？
另外，这些专业词汇我是用灵格斯翻译家查的，不知道准确不准确，楼主不妨参考一些你们专业的英文书籍来找到这些词汇的地道翻译，如果跟我找的不一致，肯定以你所查到的为准。
