we care about the nonexistence in the future in a way

而非出生前不存在的时间
we don't care about the nonexistence in the past.

也就一点也不奇怪了
Well, that may be right as far as explanation goes,

到目前为止这种解释似乎是对的
but we might still wonder whether or

但我们仍然会质疑
not it's any kind of justification.

这是否算是一种证明呢
The fact that we've got this deep-seated asymmetrical

我们根深蒂固地区别对待
attitude towards time doesn't in any way,

这两类时间的做法
as far as I can see,

至少我目前看来
yet tell us whether or not that's a justified attitude.

并没有证明任何事情
Maybe evolution built us to care about the future

或许我们会进化成更关心未来
in a way that we don't care about the past

而不是关心过去
and this shows up in lots of places,

这点体现在很多事情里
