When sociologists ask questions at this level, they're taking a broad focus, looking at the large-scale structures that shape society.

当社会学家在层面上做研究的时候，他们视野开阔，留心于塑造社会的大结构。

So convert it into wizard money then convert it back into dollars, then factor in structural macroeconomics, bank loan fees, national fiscal polices...

所以折合成巫币，再折合成美元，再将结构型经、银行贷款费用、国家财政政策等等虑。

So the structural functionalist perspective on deviance provides some useful ways of thinking about how deviance works on a macro scale.

此，关于偏差的结构功能主义提供了一些有用的方法来思偏差如何在度上起作用。

Likewise, asking about how a group builds its identity could have macro impacts, because it could help explain how large social structures are reproduced and maintained.

同样，研究群体如何建立集体认同，也有助于问题的理解，比如理解为何某些大型社会结构/制度能够生生不息。

This view adds more complexity and nuance to the matter of stratification, but as with the structural functionalist approach, it’s focused only on the macro perspective.

这种为分层问题增加了更多的复杂性和细微差别，但与结构功能主义方法一样， 它只关注视角。

The fluctuations we see in the background glow now were actually incredibly small perturbations in the fabric of space, at the time of inflation, which got stretched by inflation to macroscopic size.

我们现在在背景光中看到的波动实际上是空间结构中十分细小的扰动，膨胀时，它就会被拉伸到肉眼可见的大小。

Now that we understand a little more about the different scales that sociology works on, we can turn to its main theoretical paradigms, of which there are three: There’s structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism.

现在，理解了社会学研究中的和微层面，我们可以来说说社会学中最主要的三个理论模型了：它们是结构功能论，社会冲突论，和符号互动论。

For besides having meddled with the fabric of reality, we've also been altering the chemistry of our entire atmosphere, affecting macro processes that take place within spatial and temporal dimensions so vast that we can hardly perceive them.

为除了干预现实的结构之外，我们还改变了整个大气层的化学成分，影响了发生在空间和时间维度上的过程，而这些维度是如此之大，以至于我们几乎无法感知。
