A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
期望
Expectation
Sometimes I wonder if there's something wrong with me. Perhaps I've spent too long in the company of my literary romantic heroes, and consequently my ideals and expectations are far too high.
有时候我在想我是不是出了什么问题。也许我和我的文学浪漫主义英雄们在一起的时间太长了,因此我的理想和期望太高了。
There's a certain grace in accepting what your life is and embracing all the good things that have been - but there's still an expectation of good things to come. Not necessarily what you expected.
接受你现在的生活,拥抱所有美好的事情,这是一种优雅,但我们仍然期待美好的事情会到来。不一定是你想要的。
They flooded liquidity in the marketplace but the mortgage rate is based much more on expectations of inflation. So if the average investor believes that there is inflation coming, they'll move that rate up.
它们向市场注入了大量流动性,但抵押贷款利率更多地是基于通胀预期。因此,如果普通投资者认为通胀即将到来,他们会将利率上调。
There was expectations that the fights there, the operation there might be extended for several months, even for several years. But within a few weeks it ended, because obviously the Taliban wasn't a real force.
预计那里的战斗和行动可能会延长几个月,甚至几年。但在几周内就结束了,因为塔利班显然不是真正的武装力量。
I didn't expect to be doing a whole bunch of Amber Browns. And because it was just one book, and the father had moved away, I didn't realize I was going to have to deal more with shared custody, divorce and all those issues.
我没想到会做这么多琥珀色的棕色。因为只有一本书,而且父亲已经搬走了,我没有意识到我将不得不更多地处理共同监护权、离婚和所有这些问题。
I try to forget about the expectation that's out there and the audience listening for the next thing so that I'm not trying to please them. I've spent a huge amount of time not communicating with those folks and denying that they exist.
我试着忘记外面的期望和听众对下一件事的期待,这样我就不会试图取悦他们。我花了大量时间不与这些人交流,否认他们的存在。
Probability is expectation founded upon partial knowledge. A perfect acquaintance with all the circumstances affecting the occurrence of an event would change expectation into certainty, and leave nether room nor demand for a theory of probabilities.
概率是建立在部分知识基础上的期望。完全了解所有影响事件发生的情况,就会把期望变成确定性,从而为概率理论留下空间和需求。
