　　What are these terms?Natural happiness is what we get when we get what we wanted,and synthetic happiness is what we make when we donamp。rsquo。t get what we in our society,we have a strong beliefthat synthetic happiness is of an inferior kind.
　　什么是天然的快樂(lè)和人工合成的快樂(lè)?天然的快樂(lè)是得到我們渴求的東西。人工合成的快樂(lè)則是在得不到我們渴求的東西時(shí)，自己制造出來(lái)的東西?，F(xiàn)在這個(gè)社會(huì)堅(jiān)信人工合成的快樂(lè)是次品。
　　Why do we have that belief?Well, itamp。rsquo。s very kind of economic engine would keep churningif we believed that not getting what we wantcould make us just as happy as getting it?With all apologies to my friend Matthieu Ricard,a shopping mall full of Zen monksis not going to be particularly profitable,because they donamp。rsquo。t want stuff enough.
　　為什么人們有這樣的觀點(diǎn)?那很簡(jiǎn)單。如果我們都相信得到或得不到自己想要的東西都能一樣快樂(lè)，那經(jīng)濟(jì)引擎還如何高速運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)?先讓我向馬修。理查德(Matthieu Ricard)表示歉意，要是光顧商場(chǎng)的都是和尚，那么這些商場(chǎng)豈不是都不賺錢(qián)了?因?yàn)楹蜕型ǔ６紱](méi)有什么物質(zhì)需求。

　　I want to suggest to you that synthetic happinessis every bit as real and enduringas the kind of happiness you stumble uponwhen you get exactly what you were aiming amp。rsquo。m a scientist, so Iamp。rsquo。m going to do this not with rhetoric,but by marinating you in a little bit of data.
　　我想告訴你們的是，人工合成的快樂(lè)是真實(shí)而持久的。它和那種因?yàn)榈玫轿覀兛是蟮臇|西而感受到的快樂(lè)一樣。我是一個(gè)科學(xué)家。我不光是說(shuō)一些好聽(tīng)的結(jié)論，我還要向你們提供一些數(shù)據(jù)。
　　Let me first show you an experimental paradigm that is usedto demonstrate the synthesis of happiness among regular old this isnamp。rsquo。t amp。rsquo。s a 50yearold paradigm called the amp。quot。free choice paradigm.amp。quot。Itamp。rsquo。s very bring in, say, six objects,and you ask a subject to rank them from the most to the least this case, because this experiment uses them,these are Monet , everybody can rank these Monet printsfrom the one they like the most,to the one they like the we give you a choice:We happen to have some extra prints in the amp。rsquo。re going to give you one as your prize to take happen to have number three and number four,amp。quot。 we tell the is a bit of a difficult choice,because neither one is preferred strongly to the other,but naturally, people tend to pick number threebecause they liked it a little better than number four.
　　第一個(gè)試驗(yàn)證據(jù)顯示了普通人的人工合成的快樂(lè)。這不是我的試驗(yàn)。這個(gè)50年前做的實(shí)驗(yàn)叫做自由選擇。它很簡(jiǎn)單。你有6件物品。你讓受試者把這6件物品按照他們的喜愛(ài)程度排序。在這個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)中我們用6幅莫奈的畫(huà)。每個(gè)人都把畫(huà)按照他們最喜歡的到最不喜歡的排列?，F(xiàn)在我們給你一個(gè)選擇。”。我們正好有一些多余的畫(huà)。我們將把畫(huà)作為獎(jiǎng)品給你。我們正好有三號(hào)和四號(hào)畫(huà)。”。這個(gè)選擇有點(diǎn)困難，因?yàn)槭茉囌邔?duì)兩幅畫(huà)的喜愛(ài)程度相當(dāng)。很自然，人們都傾向于選擇三號(hào)。因?yàn)樗麄兏矚g三號(hào)。
　　Sometime later it could be 15 minutes。 it could be 15 days the same stimuli are put before the subject,and the subject is asked to rerank the us how much you like them happens?Watch as happiness is is the result that has been replicated over and over amp。rsquo。re watching happiness be you like to see it again?Happiness!The one I got is really better than I thought!That other one I didnamp。rsquo。t get sucks!amp。quot。Thatamp。rsquo。s the synthesis of happiness.
　　過(guò)了一段時(shí)間之后 這可能是15分鐘，也可能是15天。對(duì)同樣的畫(huà)，我們叫受試者對(duì)同樣的畫(huà)再一次排序?！?。告訴我們你現(xiàn)在有多喜歡這些畫(huà)了?”。結(jié)果怎樣?快樂(lè)被人工合成了。我們反復(fù)進(jìn)行了同樣的實(shí)驗(yàn)。你看到快樂(lè)被合成了吧!你還想看一下嗎?快樂(lè)!”。我有的這張比我預(yù)想的還要好。我得不到的那張，其實(shí)不怎么樣?！薄＿@就是人工合成的快樂(lè)。
　　(Laughter)
　　(笑聲)
　　Now, whatamp。rsquo。s the right response to that?Yeah, right!Now, hereamp。rsquo。s the experiment we did,and I hope this is going to convince youthat amp。quot。Yeah, right!amp。quot。was not the right response.
　　現(xiàn)在你怎么想呢?”。哦，是吧!”。這是我們做的實(shí)驗(yàn)。我希望這個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)?zāi)軌蜃屇阆嘈拧?。哦，是?”。不是正確的答案。
　　We did this experiment with a group of patientswho had anterograde are hospitalized of them have Korsakoffamp。rsquo。s syndrome,a polyneuritic drank way too much,and they canamp。rsquo。t make new ? They remember their childhood,but if you walk in and introduce yourself,and then leave the room,when you e back,they donamp。rsquo。t know who you are.
　　我們跟患有健忘癥的病人做了同樣的實(shí)驗(yàn)。這些都是住院病人。大多數(shù)人都患有柯薩可夫(korsakoff)綜合征，這是一種由于飲酒過(guò)度而造成的多發(fā)神經(jīng)炎精神癥?；颊哂洸蛔⌒掳l(fā)生的事情。明白嗎?他們能記得他們的童年，但是如果你自我介紹，然后離開(kāi)房間，當(dāng)你很快回到他們身邊時(shí)，他們不會(huì)記得你是誰(shuí)。
　　We took our Monet prints to the we asked these patients to rank themfrom the one they liked the most to the one they liked the then gave them the choice between number three and number everybody else, they said,Gee, thanks Doc! Thatamp。rsquo。s great!I could use a new amp。rsquo。ll take number three.amp。quot。We explained we would have number three mailed to gathered up our materials and we went out of the room,and counted to a half hour.
　　我們把莫奈的畫(huà)拿到醫(yī)院去。讓病人們來(lái)對(duì)他們按照喜愛(ài)的程度排序。然后我們讓他們選擇三號(hào)或者四號(hào)畫(huà)。像很多人一樣，他們說(shuō)：”。哇，真太好了! 謝謝你。 我有一幅新的畫(huà)了。我要三號(hào)。”。我們解釋說(shuō)，我們會(huì)把三號(hào)郵寄給他們。然后我們收起東西，離開(kāi)了病人的房間。半個(gè)小時(shí)后，
　　(Laughter)
　　(笑聲)
　　Back into the room,we say, amp。quot。Hi, weamp。rsquo。re back.amp。quot。The patients, bless them,say, amp。quot。Ah, Doc, Iamp。rsquo。m sorry,Iamp。rsquo。ve got a memory problem。thatamp。rsquo。s why Iamp。rsquo。m Iamp。rsquo。ve met you before, I donamp。rsquo。t remember.amp。quot。Really, you donamp。rsquo。t remember?I was just here with the Monet prints?Sorry, Doc, I just donamp。rsquo。t have a problem, Jim. All I want you to do is rank these for mefrom the one you like the most to the one you like the least.amp。quot。
　　我們回去：”。嘿，我們回來(lái)了。”。病人們說(shuō)：”。啊，醫(yī)生，非常抱歉，我有一點(diǎn)記憶的毛病，所以才住院的。如果我們見(jiàn)過(guò)面，我恐怕不能記得了?！??！?。哦，是嗎，吉姆，你不記得了?我剛剛帶了幾幅莫奈的畫(huà)到這兒來(lái)的。”?！薄?duì)不起，醫(yī)生，我真的不記得了?！??！薄](méi)關(guān)系，吉姆。我只是想讓你把這些畫(huà)按照你喜愛(ài)的程度排序。”。
　　What do they do?Well, letamp。rsquo。s first check and make sure theyamp。rsquo。re really ask these amnesiac patients to tell us which one they own,which one they chose last time, which one is what we find is amnesiac patients just are normal controls,where if I did this with you,all of you would know which print you i
