Here’s the good news. In a wired world with constant global communication, we’re
all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever they appear. And the more we
look, the more we will see that social factors (因素) like gender, race, and
class do not determine the appearance of genius. As a writer says, future
geniuses come from those with “intelligence, creativity, perseverance (毅力), and simple
good fortune, who are able to change the world.”
上面一句摘自2021年高考的全国甲卷(全国2卷)的阅读理解D。
请教各位:这里为什么用 constant global communication,而不用 instant global
communication 呢?根据后面一句 we’re all positioned to see flashes of genius
wherever they appear(无论天才在哪里出现我们都会随时注意到),这说明现在信息传播“速度快”,只要哪里出现天才,人们一下子就都知道了,所以应该是用 instant global
communication(全球即时通讯)啊,为什么用 constant global communication(这个短语如何准确翻译也是个问题)。请各位大咖发表高见,谢谢!
