我们有的是有机碳氢键，打破它们就能 给我们带来卡路里；我们有的是维生素和其他营养物质帮助我们保持健康；我们有的是居所让我们保持干燥；我们有的是衣服让我们保持温暖；我们有的是资本让我们（至少潜在地）拥有生产力；我们有的是娱乐项目让我们不至于无聊。
We have enough organic carbon-hydrogen bonds to break to provide us with calories; enough vitamins and other nutrients to keep us healthy; enough shelter to keep us dry; enough clothing to keep us warm; enough capital to keep us, at least potentially, productive; and enough entertainment to keep us from being bored.
