1. Such large, impersonal manipulation of capital and industry greatly increased the numbers and importance of shareholders as a class, an element in national life representing irresponsible wealth detached from the land and the duties of the landowners: and almost equally detached from the responsible management of business.
这样非个人的对资金和产业的巨大操纵极大地增加了股东的数量和他们作为一个阶级的重要性，这些资金代表着国民生计中以不负责任手段获取的财富。他们不但没有负起土地拥有者的责任，而且也几乎同样没有负起作为公司管理者的责任。

2. Towns like Bournemouth and Eastbourne sprang up to house large "comfortable" classes who had retired on their incomes, and who had no relation to the rest of the community except that of drawing dividends and occasionally attending a shareholders' meeting to dictate their orders to the management.
伯恩茅斯和伊斯特本这样的城镇大批涌现，给大量"享受主义"阶级提供居住场所。这些人早年赚得了丰厚的收入，现在已经退休。他们除了分红和偶尔参加一下股东大会，向管理层口授一下自己的命令之外，跟社区的其他阶层毫无瓜葛。

3. The "shareholders" as such had no knowledge of the lives, thoughts or needs of the workmen employed by the company in which he held shares, and his influence on the relations of capital and labor was not good.
这样的"股东"对他拥有股份的公司所雇用的工人们的生活、思想和需求一无所知，而且他们对劳资双方的关系产生的影响并不是积极的。

4. The paid manager acting for the company was in more direct relation with the men and their demands, but even he had seldom that familiar personal knowledge of the workmen which the employer had often had under the more patriarchal system of the old family business now passing away.
公司花钱雇来的职业经理人与工人以及他们需求的关系更加直接，但是就连他对工人们的了解也往往并不是私人间的了解。而在现在正在消失的古老家族公司的那种更加家长式的制度下，雇主们却往往和他们的工人之间有这样的私人关系。

5. Among the many shaping factors, I would single out the country's excellent elementary schools: a labor force that welcomed the new technology; the practice of giving premiums to inventors; and above all the American genius for nonverbal, "spatial" thinking about things technological.
在许多形成因素当中，我将单独讨论我们国家优秀的小学教育，其他因素有：善于学习新技术的劳动者们：奖励发明者的做法；还有最重要的因素，是美国人对技术非言语的、发散的思维的天赋。
