（单词翻译）

[00:01.80]4 Immortality1 has been a constant theme
[00:04.43]in futurology.
[00:05.34]Actually, we do now know how to extend life-
[00:08.55]by eating less and exercising more.
[00:10.99]Even so, Californian cryogenics super-
[00:13.97]salesmen have persuaded some people
[00:16.53]to part with vast sums of money on a promise
[00:19.60]that will defrost them when "the time is right"
[00:22.59]But since we haven't yet even perfected
[00:24.57]freezing strawberries,
[00:26.20]these poor deluded2 souls may be nothing
[00:28.66]more than mucky puddles3 by 2052.
[00:31.98]As for transport, the reason we aren't
[00:34.47]all buzzing around in our own mini-
[00:36.42]planes has quite a lot to do with the fact
[00:39.01]that nobody thought about what would happen
[00:41.09]when everyone wanted one.
[00:42.88]Were they going to be stacked high
[00:44.35]above our streets,
[00:45.79]stuck in an endless holding pattern
[00:47.92]while we desperately4 tried to do our shopping?
[00:49.53]
