These barriers remain largely because further liberalization would redistribute jobs, income, and wealth in ways that governments fear would reduce their chances of remaining in power – and their own wealth in countries where corruption is rife.

这些壁垒依旧存在，主要是因为进一步自由化将会重新分配工作机会、收入以及财富，而政府则担心其方式将会削弱其继续执政机会，而在腐败盛行的国家中，政府则担心其自身的财富。

And even as they looked the thing tore the throat out of Hugo Baskerville, on which, as it turned its blazing eyes and dripping jaws upon them, the three shrieked with fear and rode for dear life, still screaming, across the moor.

正当他们看着那家伙撕扯修果·巴斯克维尔的喉咙的时候，它把闪亮的眼睛和直流口涎的大嘴向他们转了过来。三个人一看就吓得大叫起来，赶忙拨转马头逃命去了，甚至在穿过沼地的时候还惊呼不已。

首先，在1960年代最早发现社交焦虑的专家（伦敦的Isaac Marks，一位在恐惧和惊恐疾病方面的著名专家）就坚决反对将其作为一种专门的病种列入DSM-III 。

Nor does religion play a discernible role; while Roman Catholics used to fear independence as being liable to result in Protestant hegemony, today Catholics and Protestants are roughly equal in their support of Scotland’s institutions.

宗教起的作用也并不明显。信仰罗马天主教的人以前担心独立会带来清教徒的霸权，现在，天主教徒和清教徒在支持苏格兰机制上大体上相等。

Yet, the ECB cannot cut interest rates 1 basis point because it fears euro-zone inflationary expectations are becoming unglued.

But European officials—and not only the ECB-- seem very reluctant to admit that their economy is faltering, fearing that it will further weaken confidence and add to the slowdown pressures.

但是不仅仅是欧洲央行，欧洲官员们看起来非常不情愿承认他们的经济正在下滑，他们担心这将会进一步削弱信心并且增添减缓的压力。
