So I was thinking, you know, we could break some bread, chop down some trees, you know, whatever you do on the weekends. Поэтому, я подумал, что мы могли бы преломить хлеб, повалять деревья, или чем ты там занимаешься на выходных.

Economists have long studied the economics of superstars in fields where a company can lever enormously the decisions of a small number of individuals, making them valuable in a way that someone who can, say, chop down trees like the legendary Paul Bunyan, is not. Экономисты уже давно изучили экономику суперзвезд в областях, в которых компания может чрезвычайно выгодно использовать решения небольшого числа людей, что делает их ценными таким образом, что человек, который может, например, рубить деревья, как легендарный Пол Баньян, не является таковым.

But what we have to recognize now is that we are reaching the ecological limits that our planet can bear, and when we chop down forests, as we are every day, to grow more and more food, when we extract water from depleting water reserves, when we emit fossil fuel emissions in the quest to grow more and more food, and then we throw away so much of it, we have to think about what we can start saving. Но теперь мы должны признать, что экология нашей планеты на пределе. Мы вырубаем всё новые и новые леса, чтобы на их месте выращивать всё больше и больше еды; мы истощаем источники воды, выбрасываем в атмосферу продукты сжигания ископаемого топлива, чтобы вырастить продовольствие, бoльшая часть которого будет выброшена. Нам пора начать экономить.

What is translation in context on PROMT.One

The “Contexts” section on PROMT.One is your translation-in-context tool that helps you find real examples of how words and phrases are used. Just enter a word and the service will show its translation in context — sentences from bilingual sources where this word is used together with its translation into the target language. This helps you understand subtle shades of meaning and correct usage in speech, whether it is a rare term or a common everyday phrase.

Millions of usage examples from real texts

Millions of translation examples are collected automatically from already translated texts: documents, websites, books, movie dialogues and more. Thanks to this, you can see a word in different situations — from formal business style to everyday colloquial speech. For convenience, the results can be filtered by a specific translation or topic, and you can also search within the examples found to quickly focus on the context you need.

How translation in context helps you learn a language

By using the “Contexts” section, you can effectively expand your vocabulary. The service clearly shows how idioms, phrasal verbs and polysemantic words are translated in different contexts. This makes language learning easier: you remember new words together with their real usage and immediately see correct translations in authentic, living language. Take advantage of context-based translation on PROMT.One — learning a language becomes easier and more engaging!
