And so, despite headline-grabbing advances such as string theory, it goes to this very day. One can hardly challenge the predictive success of modern physics, but one should remember that one is describing nature, and not always understanding it.
因此，尽管也取得了弦理论这种举世闻名的进步，物理学却走到了如斯境地。没人能质疑现代物理学所取得的预测性成就，但人们也必须牢记：当一个人在解释自然的时候，他其实不一定懂得自然。
