聰明人都這樣!

You contemplate the big questions
會考慮真正重大的問題
According to Ram Kumar, intelligent individuals "wonder a lot about [the] universe and meaning of life." What's more, Kumar writes, "they always [ask] what's the point of everything?"
拉姆•庫馬爾說,聰明的人“對宇宙和生命的意義有很多的想法”。庫馬爾還寫道,“他們總是對一切追根究底”。
That existential confusion may be one reason why smart people are more likely to be anxious. As David Wilson reported in Slate, intelligent people may be better equipped to consider situations from a range of angles, meaning they're always aware of the possibility that things will go awry.
這種存在感的混亂也許是聰明人更容易焦慮的原因之一。大衛•威爾森在網絡雜志Slate的報道中寫道,聰明人可能會更好地從多種角度考慮情況,這意味著他們總是能意識到事情出錯的可能性。
Perhaps their anxiety also stems from the fact that they consider a given experience and wonder: Why bother going through it in the first place?
或許導致焦慮的原因也常常來自他們的自我反省:一開始為什么要這么做?有必要嗎?
