Until then, until then I'm going to keep banging on about trial and error and why we should abandon the God complex. 到那时候，到那时候，我会继续讨论测试和排除错误这个话题，以及为什么我们需要抛弃“万能神力”的态度。
Because it's so hard to admit our own fallibility. It's so uncomfortable. 因为我们很难承认我们自己是很容易犯错的。这令人感到很不舒服。
And Archie Cochrane understood this as well as anybody. 阿奇·卡克伦和其他人一样理解这一点。
There's this one trial he ran many years after World War II. 这是二战后多年，他做的一个试验。
He wanted to test out the question of, where is it that patients should recover from heart attacks? 他想要测试出，病人心脏病发作后，应该在哪里康复？
Should they recover in a specialized 1 cardiac unit in hospital, or should they recover at home? 他们是应该在医院的心脏科康复，还是在家康复？
All the cardiac doctors tried to shut him down. They had the God complex in spades. 所有心脏科医生都想要把他挡在门外。他们完全摆出一副拥有万能神力的样子。
They knew that their hospitals were the right place for patients, 他们知道医院才是病人康复的地方，
and they knew it was very unethical to run any kind of trial or experiment. 他们觉得做任何试验都是不道德的。
Nevertheless, Archie managed to get permission to do this. He ran his trial. 无论如何，阿奇得到了试验的许可。他进行了试验，
And after the trial had been running for a little while, he gathered together all his colleagues around his table, 试验进行了一阵后， 他把他所有的同事召集到他桌旁，
and he said, "Well, gentlemen, we have some preliminary results. 说：“先生们，我们已经有了初步的结果。
They're not statistically 2 significant. But we have something. 这些数据在统计学上并不可观。但是我们有了些数据。
And it turns out that you're right and I'm wrong. 结果表明你们是正确的我是错的。
adj.专门的，专业化的
- There are many specialized agencies in the United Nations.联合国有许多专门机构。
- These tools are very specialized.这些是专用工具。
ad.根据统计数据来看，从统计学的观点来看
- The sample of building permits is larger and therefore, statistically satisfying. 建筑许可数的样本比较大，所以统计数据更令人满意。
- The results of each test would have to be statistically independent. 每次试验的结果在统计上必须是独立的。
