Menace--microcosm A mercenary microbe A quiet meteorologist first noticed the microbe menace.
惟利是圖的微生物 一位沉默寡言的氣象學 家首先注意到了細菌威 脅。
He was doing research on a new bizarre weather pattern hitting the metropolis when he noticed something strange about the used to measure temperature.
他正在研究一種襲擊 大都市的古怪天氣 忽然注意到用來測溫度 的水銀有些奇怪：
It was changing colors. He called his mentor in and began a messy experiment.
水銀在變顏色。 他叫來了導師，二人手 忙腳亂地做起了實驗，
That eventually showed a micro mercenary bacterium. They quickly set up a microcosm of the surrounding environment.
終于弄明白有一個惟利 是圖的微小細菌。 他們很快設置了一個 周圍環(huán)境的微觀世界，
To see the effect of the microbe on animals and plants. It was devastating. They immediately sent a message to the local officials.
以便觀察該細菌對動、 植物的影響。 影響是毀滅性的。 他們立刻給地方官員發(fā) 送了一條消息。
The officials brought in scientists to conduct more meticulous tests. They examined the metabolism of the microbe.
官員們請來了科學家， 進行了更為嚴謹?shù)臏y試 他們研究了這個微生物 的新陳代謝，
Searched for some methodology to destroy it and applied all of their mental capacities to finding a cure.
尋找某種方法來摧毀它 并且絞盡腦汁尋找對策
They found nothing other than incredibly fast metabolic defense mechanisms. One city official asked what this microbe could do to the metropolitan area.
但除了發(fā)現(xiàn)它那以驚人 速度新陳代謝的抵抗機 制外，他們一無所獲。 一位城市官員問這個 微生物對大城市 會有什么影響，
The most renowned scientist answered in a metaphorical fashion that it could merit the end of the world.
一位最有名的科學家用 隱喻的方式回答 說它的影響應該是 世界末日的來臨。
Not wanting to upset the mentality of the public, however, the officials and experts decided to call for.
但是，為了不攪亂 公眾的心態(tài)， 官員們和科學家 們決定搞一次
A merger of all research fields to conduct more tests. That won't be necessary. The meteorologist said.
所有研究領域的合并， 進行更多的測試。 那倒沒有必要， 氣象學家說道：
Look at this chart. The microbe came with this weather pattern that I had never seen before.
請看這個圖表， 這種微生物出現(xiàn)時的天 氣是我從未見到過的，
That pattern is almost over. I would bet my life that this microbe disappears when it is gone.
現(xiàn)在這種天氣 幾乎要結束了。 我敢拿我的生命打賭 天氣一變，這個微生物 也會隨之消失。
He was right. And the microbe and weather pattern were never seen again, at least not so far.
果然不出他所料， 后來再也沒有看到過那 種微生物和那樣的天氣 至少到現(xiàn)在還沒有看到 過。
