TED演讲：跟我说说高科技(3)

 　　And the trick here is to use a single, readable sentence that the audience can key into if they get a bit lost, 这里的窍门就是使用简单、易读的句子，让观众即使有点儿不明白也能够掌握要点，

　　and then provide visuals which appeal to our other senses 然后接下来提供一些能够刺激我们感官的图像，

　　and create a deeper sense of understanding of what's being described. 并且能让我们对所描述的内容有更深层次的理解。

　　So I think these are just a few keys that can help 以上这些就是我觉得能够帮助

　　the rest of us to open that door and see the wonderland that is science and engineering. 我们大家打开那扇大门的钥匙，感受科学与工程学仙境的好方法。

　　And because the engineers that I've worked with have taught me to become really in touch with my inner nerd, 那么因为与我共事过的工程师们教会我接触我内心存在的学术狂人，

　　I want to summarize with an equation. 我想用一个方程式来总结一下我的观点。

　　Take your science, subtract your bullet points and your jargon¹, divide by relevance², 用你们研究的科学，减去你们的点句式和术语，除以相关内容，

　　meaning share what's relevant to the audience, 就是要分享和观众有关的内容，

　　and multiply it by the passion that you have for this incredible work that you're doing, 再乘以你对自己正在从事的这份神奇工作的激情，

　　and that is going to equal incredible interactions that are full of understanding. 它就会等于：具备充分理解的、效果惊人的互动交流。

　　And so, scientists and engineers, when you've solved this equation, by all means, talk nerdy to me. Thank you. 因此，科学家和工程师们，当你们解决了这个方程式以后，就想尽一切办法，跟我说说高科技吧。谢谢。
