A week later they will be back in their purely negotiating role.
过一个星期他们又会倒回去扮演他们那种纯粹是谈判的角色。
They make the rest of us feel that either they should be more important and if possible creative, or less important, just minding their own business.
他们使我们其余的人觉得要么他们应该起更重要的作用，可能的话更有创新精神。要么起不那么重要的作用，只管他们自己的事。
As it is they are like a hippopotamus blundering in and out of a pets'tea party.
而现在，他们就像只河马闯进闯出玩赏动物的茶会。
Moreover, sooner or later they will have to put an end to this conflict between Admass and what remains of their Englishness, coming down decisively on one side or the other, for they cannot enjoy both together.
不仅如此，他们迟早要解决这种商业广告推销和他们残存的一些英国人特性之间的矛盾，下决心站到这一边或那一边，因为他们不能同时享有二者。
The future of the English may be shaped by this decision.
英国人的未来也许要取决于这个决定。
There are, of course, people belonging to all classes who do not want to be fascinated and then enslaved by Admass, and who if necessary are ready to make a few sacrifices, largely material, to achieve a satisfying state of mind.
当然，各个阶层之中也还有一些不甘心被商业广告推销所迷惑然后任其摆布的人。如有必要的话，这些人还愿意做出一些牺牲，主要是物质方面的牺牲，以求达到一种令人满意的精神境界。
They probably believe, as I do, that the Admass Good Life is a fraud on all counts.
他们也许像我一样地相信，商业广告推销所宣传的"美好生活"是彻头彻尾的骗局。
Even the stuff it produces is mostly junk, meant to be replaced as soon as you can afford to keep on buying.
就连它所生产出来的东西也多半是一些破烂货，只要你有钱经常购买就应当不断地予以替换。
Such people can be found among workers in smallish, well-managed and honest enterprises, in which everybody still cares about the product and does not assume the customers are idiots.
这样的人在那些规模较小、经营有方、不搞欺诈的企业的工人中可以找到，因为在这样的企业里，人们仍然把心思用在产品上，而不是把顾客都当成傻瓜。
They can be found, too-though not in large numbers because the breed is dying out-among crusty High Tories who avoid the City and directors'fees.
在那些不愿走进伦敦市商业区，不愿接受董事经理的高薪厚俸的、顽固的高层保守党成员中也可以找到此种人-尽管为数不会很多，因为这种人本就在日益减少。
But they are strongest and, I fancy, on the increase in the professional classes, men and women who may or may not believe in my Englishness but have rejected Admass.
但是，这些人的力量最大，而且，据我看，在职业阶层中他们的人数也在增长。这些男男女女也许相信我所说的英国人特性，也许不信，但他们拒绝接受商业广告推销。
