Last, we suffer from something called future time slack -- the belief that we'll have more time in the future than we do in the present.

最后，我们遭受一种叫做“未来时间松弛”的困扰——相信我们未来会比现在拥有更多的时间。

The papers, of course, had been full of the tragedy. Glaring headlines, sandwiched biographies of every member of the household, subtle innuendoes, the usual familiar tag about the police having a clue. Nothing was spared us. It was a slack time.

当然，报纸上充斥着悲剧。耀眼的头条新闻，夹在中间的每个家庭成员的传记，微妙的影射，以及关于警察有线索的常见标签。没有什么能幸免于我们。那是一段闲暇时光。
