漢譯英：流逝，表現了南國人對時間最早的感覺。“子在川上曰，逝者如斯夫。”他們發現無論是潺潺小溪，還是浩蕩大河，都一去不復返，流逝之際青年變成了老翁而綠草轉眼就枯黃，很自然有錯陰的緊迫感。 流逝也許是緩慢的，但無論如何緩慢，對流逝的恐懼使人們必須用“流逝”這個詞來時時警戒后人， 必須急匆匆地行動，給這個詞灌注一種緊張感。
They realized that both the babbling brook and the mighty river would flow on, and that their waters would never return. They found that as time passed by, young men would become old and the green grass would turn yellow and wither in almost the blink of an eye. A sense of urgency naturally arose over the elusiveness of time. No matter how slowly time flowed, the very fear of its transiency compelled people to use the word“passage to warn the coming generations of the necessity”of taking prompt action; thus instilling the word with a sense of tension.

漢譯英;我想不起來哪一個熟人沒有手機。今天沒有手機的人是奇怪的，這種人才需要解釋。我們的所有社會關系都儲存在手機的電話本里，可以隨時調出使用。古代只有巫師才能擁有這種法寶。
手機刷新了人與人的關系。會議室門口通常貼著一條通告：請與會者關閉手機。可是會議室里的手機鈴聲仍然響成一片。我們都是普通人，并沒有多少重要的事情。盡管如此，我們也不會輕易關掉手機。打開手機象征我們與這個世界的聯系。手機反映出我們的"社交饑渴癥"。最為常見的是，一個人走著走著突然停下來，眼睛盯著手機屏幕發短信。他不在乎停在馬路中央還是廁所旁邊。
為什么對于手機來電和短信這么在乎?因為我們迫切渴望與社會保持聯系。
