'*~{1gG ` 坐飞机的你突然听见很大的响声，周围一切都在剧烈颤动。一分钟后，机长通过扬声器说：
ZjI^0D8 R/^ rh There’s been an explosion in the engine, and the plane is going to crash in 15 minutes. There’s no chance of survival. There is a potential way out—the plane happens to be transferring a shipment of parachutes, and anyone who would like to use one to escape the plane may do so. But I must warn you—the parachutes are experimental and completely untested, with no guarantee to work. We also have no idea what the terrain will be like down below. Please line up in the aisle if you’d like a parachute, and the flight attendants will give you one, show you how to use it and usher you to the emergency exit where you can jump. Those who choose not to take that option, please remain in your seat—this will be over soon, and you will feel no pain.
}'X}!_9w> 一个发动机爆炸了，飞机将在15分钟内坠毁并且没有人会幸存，但是有一个活下来的机会：这架飞机正好运了一堆降落伞，任何想用降落伞的都可以拿去用。但是我要警告你们，降落伞是完全没有测试过的试验品，我不能保证可用。我也不知道下面的地形是什么样的，想要降落伞的来过道排成一队，乘务员一人给你们发一个，教你们用并且带你们去跳伞的紧急出口。不想跳下去的，保持在座位上，这一切很快将过去，没有一点痛苦。

, 1`eH[ When Robert Ettinger was a kid in the 1930s, he read a lot of science fiction, and he assumed that with the world advancing the way it was, scientists would surely have a cure for aging at some point during his lifetime. He would live to see a world where sickness was a thing of the past and death was something people chose to do voluntarily, at a time of their choosing.
yNN2}\[. Robert Ettinger小的时候（20世纪30年代）读了很多科幻小说，他说这个世界这样发展下去，科学家一定会在他有生之年研究出永生的技术。他会看到一个疾病存于历史，死亡纯属自愿的世界。
_@RW7iP> z1Ju;k( 8 But thirty years later, aging and involuntary death were still very much a thing, and Ettinger, by then a physics professor, realized that science might not solve these problems in time for him to reap the benefits. So he started thinking about how to hack the system.
_* `AGda 但是三十年后， Ettinger成了物理教授，变老和死亡还存在，他认识到有生之年科学不能让他长生不老，所以他想了另一招。
