Examples from texts

The world could not have prevented Yugoslavia’s spiral into civil war, but it might have made it less cruel by helping to negotiate terms of separation earlier.
世界可能无法阻止南斯拉夫陷入内战,但是它却可能可以通过帮助在更早的时候谈判达成分离的协议而减少残忍。

He wanted to be near her. It was not desire, not that. It was the cruel sense of unfinished aloneness, that needed a silent woman folded in his arms. Perhaps he could find her. Perhaps he could even call her out to him: or find some way in to her.
他需要去亲近她, 那并不是为了情欲, 不, 那是为了那残酷的缺憾的孤独的感觉, 这种感觉是需要一个静寂的妇人抱在他的两臂里, 才能使它消逝的, 也许他能找到她罢, 也许他甚至可以唤她出来, 或者寻个方法到她那里去罢。
