問題是，雖然胞內(nèi)同生在真核生物中非常常見，這往往造成吞噬其他細(xì)胞，但是在較爲(wèi)硬質(zhì)的細(xì)菌難以察覺。
“Were global temperature not increasing, ” he said, “the chance of an extreme heat wave such as the one Moscow experienced, though not impossible, would be vanishingly small.
他說：“若全球氣溫沒有增加像莫斯科經(jīng)歷的那種高溫出現(xiàn)的幾率（雖然不可能），那這種可能性會(huì)很小很小。”
However, sadly (or perhaps reassuringly) for the vanishingly small subset of conspiracy theorists who know and care about the conference, that is about where the resemblance ends.
然而，對(duì)於難以察覺的一小部分隂謀論者來說是遺憾的（或者說是安慰的），他們了解而且關(guān)心這次會(huì)議，但這次會(huì)議就是不同之処的開耑。

as long as it's small and finite, will lead to some small infinite errors in the formula, but remember it's got to be in the end made to be vanishingly small.
