伊莎贝尔(Isabel)正在研究一些研究期刊。 ``如果她选择打开其中一卷,她会理解这些问题,但她知道有一些对话,她永远不会有时间参加。当然,这是任何大量书籍的问题,无论是在图书馆还是书店中:人们可能会被太多阅读而不知道从哪里开始的事实感到恐惧。
(Isabel is looking at several collections of research journals. 'She would understand the issues if she chose to open one of the volumes, but she knew that there were conversations within which she would never have the time to participate in. And that, of course, was the problem with any large collection of books, whether in a library or a bookshop: one might feel intimidated by the fact that there was simply too many to read and not know where to start.)
