inglés al chino: Literature: Death of the Moth
Texto de origen - inglés
The Death of the Moth
Virginia Woolf
Moths that fly by day are not properly to be called moths; they do not excite that pleasant sense of dark autumn nights and ivy-blossom which the commonest yellow underwing asleep in the shadow of the curtain never fails to rouse in us. They are hybrid creatures, neither gay like butterflies nor sombre like their own species. Nevertheless the present specimen, with his narrow hay-coloured wings, fringed with a tassel of the same colour, seemed to be content with life. It was a pleasant morning, mid-September, mild, benignant, yet with a keener breath than that of the summer months. The plough was already scoring the field opposite the window, and where the share had been, the earth was pressed flat and gleamed with moisture. Such vigour came rolling in from the fields and the down beyond that it was difficult to keep the eyes strictly turned upon the book. The rooks too were keeping one of their annual festivities; soaring round the tree-tops until it looked as if a vast net with thousands of black knots in it had been cast up into the air; which, after a few moments sank slowly down upon the trees until every twig seemed to have a knot at the end of it. Then, suddenly, the net would be thrown into the air again in a wider circle this time, with the utmost clamour and vociferation, as though to be thrown into the air and settle slowly down upon the tree-tops were a tremendously exciting experience.
The same energy which inspired the rooks, the ploughmen, the horses, and even, it seemed, the lean bare-backed downs, sent the moth fluttering from side to side of his square of the window-pane. One could not help watching him. One was, indeed, conscious of a queer feeling of pity for him. The possibilities of pleasure seemed that morning so enormous and so various that to have only a moth¡¯s part in life, and a day moth¡¯s at that, appeared a hard fate, and his zest in enjoying his meagre opportunities to the full, pathetic. He flew vigorously to one corner of his compartment, and, after waiting there a second, flew across to the other. What remained for him but to fly to a third corner and then to a fourth? That was all he could do, in spite of the size of the downs, the width of the sky, the far-off smoke of houses, and the romantic voice, now and then, of a steamer out at sea. What he could do he did. Watching him, it seemed as if a fibre, very thin but pure, of the enormous energy of the world had been thrust into his frail and diminutive body. As often as he crossed the pane, I could fancy that a thread of vital light became visible. He was little or nothing but life.
Yet, because he was so small, and so simple a form of the energy that was rolling in at the open window and driving its way through so many narrow and intricate corridors in my own brain and in those of other human beings, there was something marvellous as well as pathetic about him. It was as if someone had taken a tiny bead of pure life and decking it as lightly as possible with down and feathers, had set it dancing and zigzagging to show us the true nature of life. Thus displayed one could not get over the strangeness of it. One is apt to forget all about life, seeing it humped and bossed and garnished and cumbered so that it has to move with the greatest circumspection and dignity. Again, the thought of all that life might have been had he been born in any other shape caused one to view his simple activities with a kind of pity.
After a time, tired by his dancing apparently, he settled on the window ledge in the sun, and the queer spectacle being at an end, I forgot about him. Then, looking up, my eye was caught by him. He was trying to resume his dancing, but seemed either so stiff or so awkward that he could only flutter to the bottom of the window-pane; and when he tried to fly across it he failed. Being intent on other matters I watched these futile attempts for a time without thinking, unconsciously waiting for him to resume his flight, as one waits for a machine, that has stopped momentarily, to start again without considering the reason for its failure. After perhaps a seventh attempt he slipped from the wooden ledge and fell, fluttering his wings, on to his back on the window-sill. The helplessness of his attitude roused me. It flashed upon me that he was in difficulties; he could no longer raise himself; his legs struggled vainly. But, as I stretched out a pencil, meaning to help him to right himself, it came over me that the failure and awkwardness were the approach of death. I laid the pencil down again.
The legs agitated themselves once more. I looked as if for the enemy against which he struggled. I looked out of doors. What had happened there? Presumably it was midday, and work in the fields had stopped. Stillness and quiet had replaced the previous animation. The birds had taken themselves off to feed in the brooks. The horses stood still. Yet the power was there all the same, massed outside indifferent, impersonal, not attending to anything in particular. Somehow it was opposed to the little hay-coloured moth. It was useless to try to do anything. One could only watch the extraordinary efforts made by those tiny legs against an oncoming doom which could, had it chosen, have submerged an entire city, not merely a city, but masses of human beings; nothing, I knew, had any chance against death. Nevertheless after a pause of exhaustion the legs fluttered again. It was superb this last protest, and so frantic that he succeeded at last in righting himself. One¡¯s sympathies, of course, were all on the side of life. Also, when there was nobody to care or to know, this gigantic effort on the part of an insignificant little moth, against a power of such magnitude, to retain what no one else valued or desired to keep, moved one strangely. Again, somehow, one saw life, a pure bead. I lifted the pencil again, useless though I knew it to be. But even as I did so, the unmistakable tokens of death showed themselves. The body relaxed, and instantly grew stiff. The struggle was over. The insignificant little creature now knew death. As I looked at the dead moth, this minute wayside triumph of so great a force over so mean an antagonist filled me with wonder. Just as life had been strange a few minutes before, so death was now as strange. The moth having righted himself now lay most decently and uncomplainingly composed. O yes, he seemed to say, death is stronger than I am.
inglés al chino: Into stylish ancient Chinese poetry: 旅人之歌
Texto de origen - inglés My love's two eyes of blue have sent me out into the wide world, I had to bid farewell to the spot I cherish. O eyes of blue, why did you look at me? Now grief and sorrow are forever my lot.
I went out in the still of the night, at dead of night across the gloomy heath. No one said goodbye to me, goodbye; my companions were love and grief.
By the road stands a linden-tree: there at last I found rest in sleep. Under the linden-tree, which snowed its blossoms down on me, I knew naught of life's pain; all, all was well again-- all, all! Love and grief, my world, my dream!

When I am 64. By The Beatles.
When I get older losing my hair, Many years from now. Will you still be sending me a Valentine Birthday greetings bottle of wine. If I'd been out till quarter to three Would you lock the door, Will you still need me, will you still feed me, When I'm sixty-four You'll be older too, And if you say the word, I could stay with you. I could be handy, mending a fuse When your lights have gone. You can knit a sweater by the fireside Sunday morning go for a ride, Doing the garden, digging the weeds, Who could ask for more. Will you still need me, will you still feed me, When I'm sixty-four Every summer we can rent a cottage, In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear We shall scrimp and save Grandchildren on your knee Vera Chuck & Dave Send me a postcard, drop me a line Stating point of view Indicate precisely what you mean to say Yours sincerely, wasting away Give me your answer, fill in a form Mine for evermore Will you still need me, will you still feed me. When I'm sixty-four

inglés al chino: Technical - Construction(Simplified)
Texto de origen - inglés The grating height is determined by the loading of the grating (requirements of load and use of the grating). The bearing bars are dimensioned for the transfer of relevant loads, the transverse bars (filler bars and possibly support bars) are dimensioned for distribution of the loads to as many bearing bars as possible, and for absorbing horizontal loads, e.g. brake loads.
PcP. mesh gratings have edge pieces that "close" the grating and provide further stability.
PcP. mesh gratings are pressed together under extreme load. This gives the grating a high degree of stability and strength even after cutouts in the original shape of the grating have been produced.

Texto de origen - inglés The even pressure of the ironing press makes it ideally suited to the application of XILION Rose Hotfix, particularly for large production runs, complex Swarovski Transfer motifs, Crystal Mesh, Crystal Fabric and other products.
In the case of ironing presses with a scissor mechanism, care must be taken to ensure that the pressure is evenly distributed (see the first drawing). The surface of the ironing press must be completely level, as otherwise the pressure and the heat will not be evenly distributed.
The New Year is coming. And it's time to bid farewell to all those natural disasters like epidemics or man-made calamities like terrorist attacks. Let us investors embrace a New Year that will gain new momentum from the market reshuffle of the last six months.

Pocket Watch: New Fad for Fund Investors
Many people have a weakness for collecting antique watches. But how many actually profit from buying and selling those old wristwatches? Those in the business know better. Pocket watches, however, are quietly creating a revolutionary dimension; the prices of those vintage ones in particular are multiplying in the market. Why? Because fund investors have started a new craze for them - the more expensive, the more sought-after.
Kiu Tai Yu, crowned ¡®China¡¯s King of Watch¡¯, an oriental collector who has the widest collection of pocket watches. He¡¯s been collecting pocket watches for more than 30 years. In 2001, he created a worldwide sensation by bidding millions of dollars for a pocket watch owned by Michael Sandberg, former taipan of HKSBC. He is not only a worldwide acclaimed pocket watch expert, but also the inventor and patent rights owner of the mystery tourbillon watch. But he warned that it¡¯s least likely for outsiders to make money out of pocket watches.
According to Kiu, last year someone invested a vast sum of 18m dollars, yet took back only a little over 3m dollars from what he believed to be antiquities. This was one of the catastrophic losses Kiu has ever heard of. Another one, however, bought a vintage pocket watch at 0.3m dollars. Three yeas later the watch¡¯s price spiked eightfold, up to over 2m dollars.
As Kiu pointed out, to invest in pocket watches, you have to broaden your knowledge , especially about the watch making processes in different periods, as well as various features of different factories, so that you won¡¯t buy the wrong ones. In recent years, though, fine watches are hard to find. This is due in part to the shortage of supply, as the existing pocket watches are surely becoming less, and in part to an ever-increasing market demand. For investors, what used to be most sought-after antiquities like famous paintings, jewels, exquisite Chinawares nowadays give way to high-priced pocket watches. They have been constantly hot in international bidding events. For funds investors see pocket watches as the order of the day - the less existing, the more precious.

Texto de origen - inglés the new BIG NAME CAR proves a trusty steed for a glorious gallop from the bustling streets of madrid to Spain’s ancient mountain retreats
Spain’s greatest stories are horse-powered. Don Quixote reined his skinny charger Rocinante through a roller coaster of slapstick adventures, with his sidekick Sancho Panza following close behind on a hapless unnamed donkey. El Cid, meanwhile, swashbuckled his way through large chunks of Iberia’s history on Babieca, Spain’s supreme warhorse. In fact, man and horse have been connected in this country since 25,000BC. So, it seems that if you want to discover the true measure of this bullish, ebullient nation, you need to saddle up.
For my quest, I’ve chosen the 2008 BIG NAME CAR. Engineered to deliver all the performance a Spanish expedition demands, the 3.0-litre turbodiesel-engined model has plenty of horsepower (215hp to be precise) and is also a willing long-haul machine. Its supple, economical V6 power plant and top-quality Overland livery promise sumptuous leatherbound comfort. That’s good because an epic journey lies ahead.
