1. Other diseases of old age—dementia, stroke, arteriosclerosis and emphysema—are also troubling fewer and fewer people. 越来越少的人为其它如痴呆症、中风、动脉硬化和肺气肿等老年疾病感到困扰了。
2. In vice, the attraction of the abnormal creates troubling anxiety: the spirit seems to have become blood and stirs in the flesh like an immanent force. 在邪恶中，异常事物的吸引创造出令人不安的焦虑：精神似乎已经变成了血液，像一股内在的力量搅动着肉体。
3. The surge in world grain prices in 2007 and 2008—and the threat they pose to food security—has a different, more troubling quality than the increases of the past. 2007年和2008年世界粮食价格飙升，危及到粮食安全，其性质与过去单单涨价不同，要更令人不安。
