At first, I believed that disorder would decrease when the universe recollapsed.

起，信当宇宙新坍时，混乱会减少。

This would eventually stop expansion in some regions and cause them to start to recollapse.

这最终会停止某些地区的扩张，并导致它们开始新坍塌。

The initial rate of expansion also would have had to be chosen very precisely for the rate of expansion still to be so close to the critical rate needed to avoid recollapse.

始膨胀率也必须非常精确地选择，因为膨胀率仍然非常接近避免新坍所的临界率。

The idea behind the geometry of the Universe is that if there's enough matter in the Universe the expansion will slow, stop, and then everything will recollapse: a sort of Big Bang in reverse.

宇宙几何背后的理念是，如果宇宙中有足够多的物质，膨胀就会放缓、停止，然后一切都会新凝固：这是一种反向的大爆炸。
