In a poker game you do not want to let your opponents know if your cards are good or bad.

VOA: special.2009.11.22

You could take that as good news or bad news but the spotlight is not on us as much as we think it is.

你可以这把当成好消息，也可以当成坏消息,但聚光灯并不像我们想的那样，总是照在我们身上。

And of course, since it's not just black and white, good life or bad life, but various shades of gray, better lives and worse lives, what's the yardstick by virtue of ? which we measure better and worse lives?

因为不是单纯的黑白，好或坏的人生，两者是混杂的，更好的人生和更坏的人生，衡量更好和更坏人生的,道德标准是什么？

By moral judgment I mean not empathetic feelings, not feelings of caring and love or approval and disapproval, so they're not feelings of caring and love and empathy, but notions like something is good or bad, something--like something is fair or unfair.

我所说的道德判断不是移情，不是关心，爱，认同或不认同，道德判断不是关心，爱或移情，而是好坏之分，公平和不公平之分。
