有没有人可以翻译这篇短文 [1] It has been observed in all ages that the advantages of nature or of fortune have contributed very little to the promotion of happiness; and that those whom the splendour of their rank or the extent of their capacity have placed upon the summits of human life, have not often given any just occasion to envy in those who look up to them from a lower station: whether it be that apparent superiority incites great designs, and great designs are naturally liable to fatal miscarriages; or that the general lot of mankind is misery, and the misfortunes of those whose eminence drew upon them an universal attention have been more carefully recorded, because they were more generally observed, and have in reality been only more conspicuous than those of others, not more frequent, or more severe.我尝试着翻译了一下，不知可否更好的改进？ 据观察，无论处在何种年龄段，天性或是财富上的优势对于幸福感的提升并没有多大作用。那些地位显赫、天赋异禀的人已然处于人生巅峰，他们并没有多少机会去羡慕那些本该在底层仰望他们的人：因为无论这种显而易见的优势将促成怎样的宏伟蓝图，它们总是更容易流产；无论世间有多少人在遭受苦难，那些身份显赫之人的苦难总会被更详尽地记载，原因在于他们普遍被广泛关注，且在现实生活中比之他人更受瞩目，而非因为他们经受的苦难更多，抑或更深重。

Dehorning The article “De-Horning” from the Save the Rhino website cliams that dehorning is an effective way of protecting rhino as it makes poaching less profitable. By using the successful cases of Namibia and Zimbabwe, the author tries to exemplify how dehorning reduce poaching losses fruitfully, however, several successful cases across Afica can not prove that dehorning is worth spreading on a large-scale if we take the high costs of each dehorning into consideration, let along the re-growth of dehorned rhino horn, which means a recurrent basis. Though author highlights the importance of adequate anti-poaching monitoring and security, the poor economic situation of Africa is still neglected. Inspite of limited funding, the author recommends that dehorning should go on in parallel with publicity work in order to ensure that poachers are aware that, in which area, the rhinos have been dehorned, also it may pose the risk to horned individuals in other areas. The another article “Does De-Horning Rhino Stop the Poachers, Harm Rhino?”, written by Margrit Harris on 21 December 2013 from the Scoop-It website presents a different view of dehorning by standing on humanitarian grounds. The author explains the dehorning process in detail, showing that even though the animal is under anaesthetic, there is still a risk to the rhino during the operation, and it’s unfair to rhino by taking away their horns in order to have them be able to survive. The author also admits that there is a limitation by simply using protective measures, however, he is still sceptical about whether to expand the dehorning as an anti-poaching tool at the same time. The reason lies in the limited funding and the different poaching rates in different countries. Under this condition, the author believes that organize economic analyses of the horn trade, and meanwhile, sanction the horn trade, could cut demand for methods like dehorning, which is just a talk in generalities. It’s hard to restrain demand of rhino horn as long as human exsit in this world, we should dredging, rather than blocking. Dehorning can not effectively deters poachers as they are not care about the size of horns, which means even rhinos with stumps could be targeted. Smuggling would never disappear as long as the benefit remain, then why not use the funds on anti-poaching monitoring and security rather than dehorning? If the monitoring and security is strict enough, then the poachers are less likely to risk their lives.

Translation (2) Some analysts tried to read the tea leaves about Apple's future based on the number of people who queued up outside stores Friday. Brian Marshall, an analyst at ISI Group, expects the company to sell around 6 million iPhones in the three-day opening weekend, a 20% increase over last year. 一些分析人士试图通过星期五当天在实体店外排队的人数来预测新一代苹果手机的销量。国际策略投资集团的分析师Brian Marshall预测，苹果公司将在3天的首发期内创下60万台的销量，较之去年增长20%。 Gene Munster, an analyst at Piper Jaffray, said about 95% of 416 customers his firm surveyed planned to buy the 5S, and many planned to buy premium models. 派杰公司分析师Gene Munster透露其公司内部有416名同事有意购买iPhone，据调查其中有95%的人计划购买iPhone 5S，大多数人都更倾向于旗舰机型。 Apple's lineup now includes both the iPhone 5S and a new device called the 5C, which was effectively last year's model in a new plastic shell with a few refinements. Apple began pre-sales for the 5C last week, and has been heavily promoting it in ads. 苹果系列产品现新增5S和5C两种机型，但事实上，iPhone 5C只是在去年型号的基础上增添了一些新设计并改为了塑料外壳。苹果公司在上周已经开始了iPhone 5C的预售，同时依托广告对该机型进行大力宣传。 Apple launched two new iPhones, the 5S and the 5C, on Friday. WSJ's Monika Vosough checked in with people at an Apple store in San Francisco to see how they reacted to the new devices. 华尔街日报记者Monika Vosough也针对这两种新的机型对旧金山一间苹果专卖店的顾客进行了调查。 In New York, many in line wanted the gold iPhone but were frustrated as news quickly circulated that it already had sold out. Michael Dabbraccio, behind about 50 people in line, learned there were no gold phones left after Apple employees took orders from people in front of him. 在纽约的苹果专卖店，大多数排队等候的顾客都有意购买金色旗舰机型，然而当已售罄的消息火速传出时，仍在等候的人们都有些沮丧。Michael Dabbracci前面排了将近50人，但专卖店员工只能遗憾地告诉他，轮到他时金色旗舰机型刚好卖完了。 "The fact they don't have gold is very, very frustrating," Mr. Dabbraccio said. The 29-year-old construction worker said he waited in line for about 20 hours specifically for the gold phone. He eventually settled for the "Space Gray," but might exchange it. Dabbraccio先生说：“金色那款已经卖完的消息真是太令人沮丧了！”，这位29岁的建筑工人为了那款金色的iPhone排了将近20小时的队，虽然最后买了“太空灰”，但估计还是会换掉它。

Please help me correct my translation (1) Iphone Sales Test Apple Strategy 新iPhone上市——苹果营销策略的考验 Apple Inc.'s latest iPhones went on sale in 11 countries Friday and the initial demand tilted toward the more-expensive model, particularly the gold-colored device. 本周五，苹果公司在十一个城市推出了最新的iPhone，初始消费需求显示，高端型号尤其是金色配色版更受消费者欢迎。 The launch is a further test of Apple's smartphone strategy, which is under attack on both the high and low ends. Strong demand for the latest versions would help allay concerns about the company's position in the smartphone market. 现苹果智能手机营销策略无论在高端市场还是低端市场都备受冲击，此次新产品的上市无疑是对该策略的进一步检验，而消费者对新产品的强劲需求为苹果手机在智能手机市场站稳脚跟注入了一剂强心针。 Analysts expect Apple to sell at least as many iPhones over its launch weekend as it did last year, particularly because it is offering the devices to the Chinese market as part of the initial round of launches for the first time. 分析人士预测，得益于中国市场首次被纳入新产品首轮发售，此次iPhone在首发周的销量有望超过去年。 Apple's website indicated new orders for the gold-colored version of its high-end iPhone 5S would not ship until next month. One U.S. carrier, Verizon Wireless, said most orders of that model wouldn't ship until Nov. 4. Apple asked its manufacturers to produce more gold phones due to the demand, according to people familiar with the matter. 苹果公司官网声明，金色旗舰机型iPhone 5S将在下个月过后上市。美国电信服务运营商威瑞森公司则表示在10月4号前该型号大多数订单都无法上市。据知情人士透露，苹果公司已通知制造商加大金色旗舰机型产量以满足巨大的消费需求。 Apple releases two new models: the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S. This video shows the countdown in major cities, including Sydney, Australia, which is home to the first iPhone buyer. 苹果公司新近推出iPhone 5C 和iPhone 5S两种新型号。视频展示了在一些主要城市的倒计时活动，其中就包括悉尼——第一位iPhone顾客的家乡。 What remains an open question is to what degree Friday's hoopla indicates increased overall demand. Apple didn't offer pre-orders for the iPhone 5S, which features faster chips and a fingerprint sensor, choosing instead to offer the device online and in stores Friday. 星期五的大肆宣传对总需求的促进作用能有多大，目前尚无定论。iPhone5S装载着更快的手机芯片以及指纹传感器，但苹果公司目前并不接受该机型的预定，这意味着消费者只能自星期五通过网络渠道或是实体店购买。
