So many different colours, so many pretty labels, that your head's in a spin?
如此之多的顏色，各種漂亮的標簽，讓你眼花繚亂？
But it is not the device's successful introduction of the touchscreen into daily life, nor its stylish looks that have the media world in a spin.

NOT since the 1980s, when the nation was in a spin about the coming of the Japanese, has there been such anxiety in America over foreign competition.
自從1980年代整個國家陷入“日本人來了”的恐慌以來，面對國外的競爭壓力，美國國內(nèi)很少彌漫如此的緊張情緒。

And this spin is an intrinsic quality of the electron, it's a property that is intrinsic in all particles, just like we would say mass is intrinsic or charge is intrinsic.
自旋是電子的本征量，它是所有粒子的本征性質，就像我們說質量是本征的或者電荷是本征的。

So what that means is that we're limited in any atom to having two electrons per orbital, right, because for any orbital we can either have a spin up electron, a spin down electron, or both.
這意味著在一個原子內(nèi),每個軌道上可以有兩個電子，對吧，因為對任何軌道,我們可以有自旋向上或者自選向下或者兩者都有。
