1.smack v. 掴;用掌击

I don't smack them, but I sometimes think I should, because the elder two have so much attitude.
我不打他们,但有时我真觉得我该打他们,因为那两个大的非常不听管教。

I focus totally on human responses to things; if you smack someone in the face, what would they do?
我关注的完全是人类对事物的反应;如果你掴了某人一巴掌,他们会怎么办?

2.fathom n. 英寻

It is, in general, hard to fathom what he sees or thinks, which is both the point and a bit of a problem.
总之,很难参透他到底在看什么或是想什么,这既是影片的重点却也带来一点问题。

If that's tough to fathom, consider one of the features already built into the device. Say the wearer goes to the grocery store and picks up a box of cereal from the shelf.
如果这样很难彻底了解,那么请设想一下这套装置已有的一种功能——我们说如果一个使用者到食品店买东西,他从架子上挑了一盒谷类食品。

3.coil n. 线圈;卷

The burnt coil should be renewed.
烧穿的线圈应换新的。

Boil the oil soiled by the coil in the toilet lest it spoil.
把被盥洗室里的线圈弄脏的油煮开,免得它变质。

4.skiff n. 小艇;小型帆船

First we have the "Pilot of some small night-founder'd Skiff," and the pilot stands ab extra, from outside, in the simile.
首先我们有这句“迷茫深夜中,轻舟的导航人“,并且这个导航人在明喻中,体现为从诗句之外向内眺望。

All lights were out when he sailed into the little harbor and beached his skiff.
当他划进小港,让小船冲上沙滩时,岸上的灯火都已灭了。
