会考虑真正重大的问题

可可电台

According to Ram Kumar, intelligent individuals "wonder a lot about [the] universe and meaning of life." What's more, Kumar writes, "they always [ask] what's the point of everything?"

拉姆•库马尔说,聪明的人“对宇宙和生命的意义有很多的想法”。库马尔还写道,“他们总是对一切追根究底”。

That existential confusion may be one reason why smart people are more likely to be anxious. As David Wilson reported in Slate, intelligent people may be better equipped to consider situations from a range of angles, meaning they're always aware of the possibility that things will go awry.

这种存在感的混乱也许是聪明人更容易焦虑的原因之一。大卫•威尔森在网络杂志Slate的报道中写道,聪明人可能会更好地从多种角度考虑情况,这意味着他们总是能意识到事情出错的可能性。

Perhaps their anxiety also stems from the fact that they consider a given experience and wonder: Why bother going through it in the first place?

或许导致焦虑的原因也常常来自他们的自我反省:一开始为什么要这么做?有必要吗?
