平衡的设计方法会比较收益、成本和不同群体的需求。
a balanced approach — 保留结构，替换真实细节。The main benefit of a thoughtful response to design is a result that people can actually observe.
/ðə meɪn ˈbɛnəfɪt əv ə ˈθɔtfəl ɹɪˈspɑns tə dɪˈzaɪn ɪz ə ɹɪˈzʌlt ðæt ˈpipəl kən ˈækt͡ʃəli əbˈzɚv./
对设计进行深思熟虑的反应的主要好处是人们可以实际观察到的结果。
benefit — 保留结构，替换真实细节。The main challenge is to respond to design without creating a larger problem elsewhere.
/ðə meɪn ˈt͡ʃælɪnd͡ʒ ɪz tə ɹɪˈspɑnd tə dɪˈzaɪn wɪˈðaʊt kɹiˈeɪtɪŋ ə ˈlɑɹd͡ʒɚ ˈpɹɑbləm ˈɛlˌswɛɹ./
主要挑战在于在别处不造成更大的问题的情况下对设计作出反应。
challenge — 保留结构，替换真实细节。Strong evidence helps people judge design without relying on a single attractive story.
/stɹɔŋ ˈɛvədəns hɛlps ˈpipəl d͡ʒʌd͡ʒ dɪˈzaɪn wɪˈðaʊt ɹiˈlaɪɪŋ ɔn ə ˈsɪŋɡəl əˈtɹæktɪv ˈstɔɹi./
有力的证据帮助人们在不依赖单一的有吸引力的故事的情况下判断设计。
strong evidence — 保留结构，替换真实细节。The results indicate that the effects of design are not identical for every group.
/ðə ɹɪˈzʌlts ˈɪndɪˌkeɪt ðæt ðə ɪˈfɛkts əv dɪˈzaɪn ɑɹ nɑt aɪˈdɛntɪkəl fɚ ˈɛvɹi ɡɹup./
结果显示，设计的效果并非每个组都相同。
results indicate — 保留结构，替换真实细节。Several personal and social factors contribute to how people experience design.
/ˈsɛvɚəl ˈpɚsənəl ænd ˈsoʊʃəl ˈfæktɚz kənˈtɹɪbjut tə haʊ ˈpipəl ɪkˈspɪɹiəns dɪˈzaɪn./
有几个个人和社会因素会影响人们的设计体验。
contribute to — 保留结构，替换真实细节。People need realistic support to maintain a balance between the benefits and costs of design.
/ˈpipəl nid ˌɹiəˈlɪstɪk səˈpɔɹt tə meɪnˈteɪn ə ˈbæləns bɪˈtwin ðə ˈbɛnəfɪts ænd kɔsts əv dɪˈzaɪn./
人们需要现实的支持来维持设计的收益和成本之间的平衡。
maintain a balance — 保留结构，替换真实细节。Personal experience is a useful starting point, but evidence about design must also include other groups and conditions.
/ˈpɚsənəl ɪkˈspɪɹiəns ɪz ə ˈjusfəl ˈstɑɹtɪŋ pɔɪnt, bʌt ˈɛvədəns əˈbaʊt dɪˈzaɪn mʌst ˈɔlsoʊ ɪŋˈklud ˈʌðɚ ɡɹups ænd kənˈdɪʃənz./
个人经验是一个有用的起点，但有关设计的证据还必须包括其他群体和条件。
evidence — 保留结构，替换真实细节。A single example can show that a response is possible; it cannot prove that the response will work everywhere.
/ə ˈsɪŋɡəl ɪɡˈzæmpəl kən ʃoʊ ðæt ə ɹɪˈspɑns ɪz ˈpɑsəbəl; ɪt kæˈnɑt pɹuv ðæt ðə ɹɪˈspɑns wɪl wɚk ˈɛvɹiˌwɛɹ./
一个例子就可以表明响应是可能的；它不能证明这种应对措施在任何地方都有效。
example — 保留结构，替换真实细节。For that reason, responsible decisions define a goal, observe the result, and change direction when the evidence is weak.
/fɚ ðæt ˈɹizən, ɹiˈspɑnsɪbəl dɪˈsɪʒənz dɪˈfaɪn ə ɡoʊl, əbˈzɚv ðə ɹɪˈzʌlt, ænd t͡ʃeɪnd͡ʒ dɪˈɹɛkʃən wɛn ðə ˈɛvədəns ɪz wik./
因此，负责任的决策会定义目标，观察结果，并在证据薄弱时改变方向。
evidence — 保留结构，替换真实细节。A serious problem involving design may require attention from both individuals and institutions.
/ə ˈsɪɹiəs ˈpɹɑbləm ɪnˈvɑlvɪŋ dɪˈzaɪn meɪ ɹɪˈkwaɪɚ əˈtɛnʃən fɹʌm boʊθ ˌɪndɪˈvɪd͡ʒuəlz ænd ˌɪnstɪˈtuʃənz./
涉及设计的严重问题可能需要个人和机构的关注。
require attention — 保留结构，替换真实细节。Available information can change how people understand and respond to design.

可用信息可以改变人们对设计的理解和反应。
available — 保留结构，替换真实细节。The case shows why a particular experience matters when people make decisions about design.
/ðə keɪs ʃoʊz waɪ ə pɚˈtɪkjəlɚ ɪkˈspɪɹiəns ˈmætɚz wɛn ˈpipəl meɪk dɪˈsɪʒənz əˈbaʊt dɪˈzaɪn./
案件表明，当人们就设计作出决定时，特定的经验为何重要。
particular — 保留结构，替换真实细节。An alternative solution can change how people understand and respond to design.
/ən ɔlˈtɚnɪtɪv səˈluʃən kən t͡ʃeɪnd͡ʒ haʊ ˈpipəl ˌʌndɚˈstænd ænd ɹɪˈspɑnd tə dɪˈzaɪn./
另一种解决方案可以改变人们对设计的理解和反应。
alternative — 保留结构，替换真实细节。When discussing design, people should explain why a clear explanation matters.
/wɛn dɪˈskʌsɪŋ dɪˈzaɪn, ˈpipəl ʃʊd ɪkˈspleɪn waɪ ə klɪɹ ˌɛkspləˈneɪʃən ˈmætɚz./
在讨论设计时，人们应该解释清楚的解释为何重要。
clear — 保留结构，替换真实细节。A concrete example of design makes the central idea easier to understand and evaluate.
/ə ˈkɑŋkɹit ɪɡˈzæmpəl əv dɪˈzaɪn meɪks ðə ˈsɛntɹəl aɪˈdiə ˈiziɚ tə ˌʌndɚˈstænd ænd ɪˈvæljuˌeɪt./
具体的设计示例使中心思想更容易理解和评估。
example — 保留结构，替换真实细节。People can describe an experience when a real situation involving design requires action.
/ˈpipəl kən dɪˈskɹaɪb ən ɪkˈspɪɹiəns wɛn ə ɹil ˌsɪt͡ʃuˈeɪʃən ɪnˈvɑlvɪŋ dɪˈzaɪn ɹiˈkwaɪɚz ˈækʃən./
当涉及设计的真实情况需要采取行动时，人们可以描述一种体验。
describe an experience — 保留结构，替换真实细节。People can compare two responses to design only when they use the same criteria.
/ˈpipəl kən kəmˈpɛɹ tu ɹɪˈspɑnsɪz tə dɪˈzaɪn ˈoʊnli wɛn ðeɪ juz ðə seɪm kɹaɪˈtɪɹiə./
人们只有在使用相同的标准时才能比较两种设计反应。
compare — 保留结构，替换真实细节。A convincing view of design gives a reason and then tests it against a concrete example.
/ə kənˈvɪnsɪŋ vju əv dɪˈzaɪn ɡɪvz ə ˈɹizən ænd ðɛn tɛsts ɪt əˈɡɛnst ə ˈkɑŋkɹit ɪɡˈzæmpəl./
令人信服的设计观点给出了一个理由，然后根据具体的例子进行测试。
example — 保留结构，替换真实细节。The most practical lesson is that design should be judged through real effects rather than attractive slogans.
/ðə moʊst ˈpɹæktɪkəl ˈlɛsən ɪz ðæt dɪˈzaɪn ʃʊd bi d͡ʒʌd͡ʒd θɹu ɹil ɪˈfɛkts ˈɹæðɚ ðən əˈtɹæktɪv ˈsloʊɡənz./
最实际的教训是，应该通过实际效果而不是有吸引力的口号来判断设计。
rather than — 保留结构，替换真实细节。An honest conclusion may be conditional: the approach works in this situation, provided that several important limits are respected.
/ən ˈɑnɪst kəŋˈkluʒən meɪ bi kənˈdɪʃənəl: ðə əˈpɹoʊt͡ʃ wɚks ɪn ðɪs ˌsɪt͡ʃuˈeɪʃən, pɹəˈvaɪdɪd ðæt ˈsɛvɚəl ɪmˈpɔɹtənt ˈlɪmɪts ɑɹ ɹɪˈspɛktɪd./
诚实的结论可能是有条件的：该方法在这种情况下有效，前提是遵守几个重要的限制。
approach — 保留结构，替换真实细节。Good decisions connect a clear purpose with evidence, human experience, and the willingness to revise a weak approach.
/ɡʊd dɪˈsɪʒənz kəˈnɛkt ə klɪɹ ˈpɚpəs wɪθ ˈɛvədəns, ˈhjumən ɪkˈspɪɹiəns, ænd ðə ˈwɪlɪŋnəs tə ɹɪˈvaɪz ə wik əˈpɹoʊt͡ʃ./
好的决定会把明确目标、事实证据、人的真实经验，以及修正薄弱方案的意愿联系起来。
approach — 保留结构，替换真实细节。When those parts stay connected, the topic becomes easier to discuss in daily conversation and in an IELTS answer.
/wɛn ðoʊz pɑɹts steɪ kəˈnɛktɪd, ðə ˈtɑpɪk bɪˈkʌmz ˈiziɚ tə dɪˈskʌs ɪn ˈdeɪli ˌkɑnvɚˈseɪʃən ænd ɪn ən aɪ ɛl ti ɛs ˈænsɚ./
当这些部分保持连贯时，无论日常交流还是 IELTS 回答，这个主题都会更容易展开。
When those parts stay — 保留结构，替换真实细节。A team tested a ticket machine with older passengers and enlarged the instructions after observing repeated errors.
/ə tim ˈtɛstɪd ə ˈtɪkɪt məˈʃin wɪθ ˈoʊldɚ ˈpæsənd͡ʒɚz ænd ɪnˈlɑɹd͡ʒd ðə ɪnˈstɹʌkʃənz ˈæftɚ əbˈzɚvɪŋ ɹɪˈpitɪd ˈɛɹɚz./
At first, this looked like a small decision about design, but its result soon became visible.
/æt fɚst, ðɪs lʊkt laɪk ə smɔl dɪˈsɪʒən əˈbaʊt dɪˈzaɪn, bʌt ɪts ɹɪˈzʌlt sun bɪˈkeɪm ˈvɪzɪbəl./
The case raises a broader question: how constraints and user needs shape useful objects.
/ðə keɪs ˈɹeɪzɪz ə ˈbɹɔdɚ ˈkwɛst͡ʃən: haʊ kənˈstɹeɪnts ænd ˈjuzɚ nidz ʃeɪp ˈjusfəl ˈɑbd͡ʒɛkts./
The central question about design is practical rather than abstract.
/ðə ˈsɛntɹəl ˈkwɛst͡ʃən əˈbaʊt dɪˈzaɪn ɪz ˈpɹæktɪkəl ˈɹæðɚ ðən ˈæbstɹækt./
The example draws attention to a practical function, which can shape how people respond to design.
/ðə ɪɡˈzæmpəl dɹɔz əˈtɛnʃən tə ə ˈpɹæktɪkəl ˈfʌŋkʃən, wɪt͡ʃ kən ʃeɪp haʊ ˈpipəl ɹɪˈspɑnd tə dɪˈzaɪn./
A closer look at a visual aesthetic reveals a practical side of design that general opinions often miss.
/ə ˈkloʊsɚ lʊk æt ə ˈvɪʒuəl ɛsˈθɛtɪk ɹɪˈvilz ə ˈpɹæktɪkəl saɪd əv dɪˈzaɪn ðæt ˈd͡ʒɛnɚəl əˈpɪnjənz ˈɔftən mɪs./
A balanced approach to design compares benefits, costs, and the needs of different groups.
/ə ˈbælənst əˈpɹoʊt͡ʃ tə dɪˈzaɪn kəmˈpɛɹz ˈbɛnəfɪts, kɔsts, ænd ðə nidz əv ˈdɪfɹənt ɡɹups./
The main benefit of a thoughtful response to design is a result that people can actually observe.
/ðə meɪn ˈbɛnəfɪt əv ə ˈθɔtfəl ɹɪˈspɑns tə dɪˈzaɪn ɪz ə ɹɪˈzʌlt ðæt ˈpipəl kən ˈækt͡ʃəli əbˈzɚv./
The main challenge is to respond to design without creating a larger problem elsewhere.
/ðə meɪn ˈt͡ʃælɪnd͡ʒ ɪz tə ɹɪˈspɑnd tə dɪˈzaɪn wɪˈðaʊt kɹiˈeɪtɪŋ ə ˈlɑɹd͡ʒɚ ˈpɹɑbləm ˈɛlˌswɛɹ./
Strong evidence helps people judge design without relying on a single attractive story.
/stɹɔŋ ˈɛvədəns hɛlps ˈpipəl d͡ʒʌd͡ʒ dɪˈzaɪn wɪˈðaʊt ɹiˈlaɪɪŋ ɔn ə ˈsɪŋɡəl əˈtɹæktɪv ˈstɔɹi./
The results indicate that the effects of design are not identical for every group.
/ðə ɹɪˈzʌlts ˈɪndɪˌkeɪt ðæt ðə ɪˈfɛkts əv dɪˈzaɪn ɑɹ nɑt aɪˈdɛntɪkəl fɚ ˈɛvɹi ɡɹup./
Several personal and social factors contribute to how people experience design.
/ˈsɛvɚəl ˈpɚsənəl ænd ˈsoʊʃəl ˈfæktɚz kənˈtɹɪbjut tə haʊ ˈpipəl ɪkˈspɪɹiəns dɪˈzaɪn./
People need realistic support to maintain a balance between the benefits and costs of design.
/ˈpipəl nid ˌɹiəˈlɪstɪk səˈpɔɹt tə meɪnˈteɪn ə ˈbæləns bɪˈtwin ðə ˈbɛnəfɪts ænd kɔsts əv dɪˈzaɪn./
Personal experience is a useful starting point, but evidence about design must also include other groups and conditions.
/ˈpɚsənəl ɪkˈspɪɹiəns ɪz ə ˈjusfəl ˈstɑɹtɪŋ pɔɪnt, bʌt ˈɛvədəns əˈbaʊt dɪˈzaɪn mʌst ˈɔlsoʊ ɪŋˈklud ˈʌðɚ ɡɹups ænd kənˈdɪʃənz./
A single example can show that a response is possible; it cannot prove that the response will work everywhere.
/ə ˈsɪŋɡəl ɪɡˈzæmpəl kən ʃoʊ ðæt ə ɹɪˈspɑns ɪz ˈpɑsəbəl; ɪt kæˈnɑt pɹuv ðæt ðə ɹɪˈspɑns wɪl wɚk ˈɛvɹiˌwɛɹ./
For that reason, responsible decisions define a goal, observe the result, and change direction when the evidence is weak.
/fɚ ðæt ˈɹizən, ɹiˈspɑnsɪbəl dɪˈsɪʒənz dɪˈfaɪn ə ɡoʊl, əbˈzɚv ðə ɹɪˈzʌlt, ænd t͡ʃeɪnd͡ʒ dɪˈɹɛkʃən wɛn ðə ˈɛvədəns ɪz wik./
A serious problem involving design may require attention from both individuals and institutions.
/ə ˈsɪɹiəs ˈpɹɑbləm ɪnˈvɑlvɪŋ dɪˈzaɪn meɪ ɹɪˈkwaɪɚ əˈtɛnʃən fɹʌm boʊθ ˌɪndɪˈvɪd͡ʒuəlz ænd ˌɪnstɪˈtuʃənz./
Available information can change how people understand and respond to design.
/əˈveɪləbəl ˌɪnfɔɹˈmeɪʃən kən t͡ʃeɪnd͡ʒ haʊ ˈpipəl ˌʌndɚˈstænd ænd ɹɪˈspɑnd tə dɪˈzaɪn./
The case shows why a particular experience matters when people make decisions about design.
/ðə keɪs ʃoʊz waɪ ə pɚˈtɪkjəlɚ ɪkˈspɪɹiəns ˈmætɚz wɛn ˈpipəl meɪk dɪˈsɪʒənz əˈbaʊt dɪˈzaɪn./
An alternative solution can change how people understand and respond to design.
/ən ɔlˈtɚnɪtɪv səˈluʃən kən t͡ʃeɪnd͡ʒ haʊ ˈpipəl ˌʌndɚˈstænd ænd ɹɪˈspɑnd tə dɪˈzaɪn./
When discussing design, people should explain why a clear explanation matters.
/wɛn dɪˈskʌsɪŋ dɪˈzaɪn, ˈpipəl ʃʊd ɪkˈspleɪn waɪ ə klɪɹ ˌɛkspləˈneɪʃən ˈmætɚz./
A concrete example of design makes the central idea easier to understand and evaluate.
/ə ˈkɑŋkɹit ɪɡˈzæmpəl əv dɪˈzaɪn meɪks ðə ˈsɛntɹəl aɪˈdiə ˈiziɚ tə ˌʌndɚˈstænd ænd ɪˈvæljuˌeɪt./
People can describe an experience when a real situation involving design requires action.
/ˈpipəl kən dɪˈskɹaɪb ən ɪkˈspɪɹiəns wɛn ə ɹil ˌsɪt͡ʃuˈeɪʃən ɪnˈvɑlvɪŋ dɪˈzaɪn ɹiˈkwaɪɚz ˈækʃən./
People can compare two responses to design only when they use the same criteria.
/ˈpipəl kən kəmˈpɛɹ tu ɹɪˈspɑnsɪz tə dɪˈzaɪn ˈoʊnli wɛn ðeɪ juz ðə seɪm kɹaɪˈtɪɹiə./
A convincing view of design gives a reason and then tests it against a concrete example.
/ə kənˈvɪnsɪŋ vju əv dɪˈzaɪn ɡɪvz ə ˈɹizən ænd ðɛn tɛsts ɪt əˈɡɛnst ə ˈkɑŋkɹit ɪɡˈzæmpəl./
The most practical lesson is that design should be judged through real effects rather than attractive slogans.
/ðə moʊst ˈpɹæktɪkəl ˈlɛsən ɪz ðæt dɪˈzaɪn ʃʊd bi d͡ʒʌd͡ʒd θɹu ɹil ɪˈfɛkts ˈɹæðɚ ðən əˈtɹæktɪv ˈsloʊɡənz./
