Inspired by the summer festivals, the initial bright hues turns take a misty twist in creating an innovative new direction for pastels in powdery form. This palette is perfect for achieving the look through dye techniques, but also can be achieved through the combination of black yarns blended with brighter tones to get a grungy look.
从夏季的节日中获得灵感,最初的亮色变化缠绕交织,显出朦胧之美,为粉状的柔和色彩开创了一个新奇的方向。此调色板对于通过染色工艺实现想要的外观十分理想,同时也可将明快色调融入黑纱以得到一种颓废风格的外观。

A natural based palette that gives depth to the colors on offer. From cactus green to sunset orange, there is a true relaxed mood to this palette and a strong unisex appeal. Work the tones from matte surfaces to semi-bright in delivering an innate sense of the great outdoors.
以自然色调为基础的调色板赋予所提供的颜色一种深度感。从仙人掌绿到落日橙,此调色板的确让人感到心情舒畅,其中性风格具有十足魅力。调整色调,使亚光布面转至半光,从而带来广阔天地的自然观感。

This evaluation concerns the torque controlled expansion anchor HILTI stud anchor HSA placed in non-cracked reinforced concrete (strength class C20125 050/60) used for normal structures under fire exposure. The fire conditions for the Standard Temperature/Time Curve“ (STC) are given in EN 1363-1 [1]. The fire resistance time is evaluated for the fire resistance periods of 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes according to the design method for given in this CEN/TS [2] or TRO2O [4].
该项评估针对扭矩控制型膨胀锚栓——喜得利螺杆式锚栓HSA。这种锚栓应用在火灾条件的不开裂钢筋混凝土(混凝土强度≥C20/25≤C50/60)。标准温度/时间曲线(STC) 火灾条件见EN 1363 - 1[1]。根据CEN/TS [2]或TR020[4]给出的设计方法,耐火评估时间分别为30、60、90和120分钟。

In general, the duration of the fire resistance of anchorages depends mainly on the configuration of the structure itself (base materials, anchorage including the fixture). It is not possible to classify an anchor tor its fire resistance. This evaluation concept includes the behavior of the anchorage in concrete and the parts outside the concrete. The influence of the fixation is considered unfavorable. The base material (reinforced concrete), in which the anchor shall be anchored, shall have at least the same duration of fire resistance as the anchorage itself.
一般来说,锚固耐火时间的长短主要取决于主体结构(基材、锚固件,包括固定物)。锚栓分类不宜依据单个锚栓的耐火性能。这一评估概念涵盖混凝土内部及外侧部件的锚固行为。这种固定方式通常带来不利影响。基材(钢筋混凝土)应当至少与其固定的锚栓本身一样,具有相同的耐火时间。

摘要 本文根据笔者多年在临床工作中对部份癌症病人的观察治疗体会,参照有关书籍和报刊杂志对癌症病的论述,结合某些医疗科研单位防治癌症的奇遇和对自然界某些现象的观察遐想,运用中医基础理论的逻辑思维方法,从中医学角度对癌症的发生机理以及防治对策进行探讨,尤其提出“阳气不足、阴邪内生”是癌症发生的最基本因素,并贯穿其发生发展之始终,预防与治疗也自始至终不忘温补阳气。同时,结合现代医学实验研究进行了补充论述。

Abstract: This paper was prepared with reference to years of personal experience in the clinical work on the treatment of part of the cancer patients. Similar cases publicized by peers as medical wonders also enlightened the author in the observations of certain phenomena of nature. By the use of basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, a novel perspective on the mechanisms of cancer and the control strategies were presented for discussion in details. Particularly, the typical concept that "Deficiency of yang leads to endogenous yin of evil" works from beginning to end as the fundamental factor of cancer development. The qi of yang should then be consistently warmed and supplemented in the specific prevention and treatment. As a strong addition, the conclusions derived from experimental studies with modern medical sciences were also merited in this work.

Ausstellungsort ist das BMW Group Museum in München. Auf mehr als 1000 Quadratmetern, verteilt über fünf Stockwerke, präsentieren sich 15 originale Rolls-Royce Automobile aus den Jahren 1907 bis 2012. Dazu gehört auch der legendäre Rolls-Royce 10EX, eines der wichtigsten Konzeptfahrzeuge der Automobilgeschichte. Er entstand 1926, um das Potenzial des „New Phantom“ zu demonstrieren. Das Fahrzeug wurde maßgeblich von Sir Henry Rolls entwickelt, der den 10EX in seinem unerbittlichen Streben nach automobiler Perfektion auch selbst fuhr. Ergänzt wird die Ausstellung durch informative Displays zu wichtigen Rolls-Royce Themen wie Karosseriebau, Handwerkskunst, Bespoke Individualisierung, Fahrzeugbau und Werbung. Das erzählende Konzept der Ausstellung geht auch auf wesentliche Designmerkmale von Rolls-Royce ein, zum Beispiel auf die Kühlerfigur Spirit of Ecstasy und auf den Kühlergrill im Pantheon-Stil.
车展地点在慕尼黑宝马集团博物馆。超过1000平方米的展区分布在五个楼层,展出了1907年至2012年期间生产的15辆原装劳斯莱斯汽车。这次展出中,还包括劳斯莱斯10EX这一传奇车型,它被誉为汽车发展史上最重要的概念车之一。它成形于1926年,充分展示了“新幻影”系列的发展潜力。这款车由亨利•劳斯爵士(Sir Henry Rolls)担纲开发。期间,爵士本人还身体力行,以不懈精神追求汽车设计的完美境界。展览辅以翔实的重要主题,如劳斯莱斯机身、精湛的制作工艺、定制客制化服务、汽车和广告等,这些信息均发布在显示屏上。叙事式办展理念还侧重于劳斯莱斯公司的主要设计特点,例如,置于引擎盖上的欢乐女神雕像饰件,以及神殿风格的散热器格栅等。

Der Dermatopoietin® Peptid-Komplex ist der Hauptwirkstoff der EVENSWISS Produkte und das Ergebnis von vielen Jahren der Grundlagenforschung. Die Komponenten des Dermatopoietin® Peptid-Komplexeskönnen nicht in die Haut eindringen. Sie entfalten ihre Wirkung auf der Hautoberfläche, wo sie eine Kaskade von Reaktionen auslösen, die bis in die tieferen Hautschichten (Dermis) wirken. Diese Kaskade besteht in der Epidermis im Wesentlichen in der Freisetzung von hauteigenem Interleukin-1 alpha durch Dermatopoietin® aus Keratinozyten (siehe Abbildung).
D调控因子®肽复合物是EVENSWISS系列产品的主要活性成分,也是多年研究的成果。 D调控因子®肽复合物的成分不会穿透皮肤。这些成分仅在皮肤表层作用,并引发一系列反应,对深层皮肤(真皮层)产生作用。这一系列反应主要发生于表皮层,角质细胞通过D调控因子®释放皮肤白细胞介素-1α(见图)。

Bij de productie van aardappelgranulaat en —vlokken kunnen diverse ingrediënten bijgemengd worden. Deze (veelal droge) ingrediënten hebben meestal een agrarische herkomst, zoals droge groenten, kruiden, specerijen e.d. Zoals hierboven al aangegeven zijn dit geen producten met een hoge kans op het voorkomen van Listeria of E.coli O157:H7; daarentegen is volgens de literatuur het voorkomen van Salmonella in kruiden en specerijen wel mogelijk.

… alles volgens planning is verlopen. Als alle werknemers die er moesten zijn, ook aanwezig waren, als er niets stuk is gegaan waardoor de productie vertraging opliep, als de planning voor wat betreft kwaliteit en kwantiteit wordt gehaald. In ons beroep moet je vooruit denken, je moet plannen terwijl je ook rekening houdt met de afwijkingen. Met name nu we in IJsselstein net met twee ploegendiensten zijn begonnen, is dat wel een uitdaging. Het vraagt veel flexibiliteit van iedereen. Maar tot nu toe valt het me niet tegen, de kwaliteit die we halen, de samenwerking en de nieuwe collega’s.

Neste capítulo trataremos de explanar alguns aspectos relevantes da noção de transferência linguística, com ênfase na atuação da língua materna durante a aquisição de uma língua alvo. Na primeira parte, discutiremos questões de definição e terminologia. Na segunda parte, mostraremos como o fenômeno se manifesta na interlíngua e, na terceira, apresentaremos as restrições que atuam sobre ele. Na quarta parte, salientaremos problemas metodológicos envolvidos no estudo desse tema e, por fim, sintetizaremos algumas conclusões.
在本章中,我们将尝试分析语言迁移的概念及其相关方面现象,并着重论述学习目标语言时母语所起的作用。第一部分,我们将讨论定义和术语。第二部分,我们将揭示中介语言现象是如何体现的;而第三部分,我们将探讨语言迁移现象所受的限制因素。在第四部分中,我们会重点介绍本课题研究中涉及的学习方法相关问题;最后,总结论点。

Observa-se que nos últimos anos a aprendizagem de uma segunda língua tem sido vista como um processo de construção criativa de um sistema linguístico, ou seja, um conjunto estruturado de regras, no qual o aprendiz está constantemente testando hipóteses acerca da língua alvo a partir de uma variedade de fontes de conhecimento, tais como, conhecimento de sua língua materna, conhecimento limitado da língua alvo, conhecimento das funções comunicativas da linguagem, conhecimento sobre linguagem de modo geral, e conhecimento de mundo (MCLAUGHLIN, 1987). O aprendiz é visto como um ser inteligente e criativo engajado em estágios lógicos e sistemáticos de aquisição da língua.

根据近年来的观察,学习第二门语言逐渐被归入创造性构建语言系统的过程,即,规则结构化的过程。在这过程中学习者根据他们对母语的了解和有限的目标语言知识,以及对语言交流功能、语言常识和当代世界现状的认识不断地验证关于目标语言的假设(MCLAUGHLIN,1987)。外语学习是一项需要逻辑思维和系统分析能力的过程,因此语言学习者被认为是具有智慧和创造力的人群。

====================================================
TRANSLATION IS A CARRIER —— 「翻译是一种运载工具」

Think about a vehicle, a ship or the handcart used in the ancient times. The operators may never, or are not allowed to know more about the goods consigned by the clients. Yet they must know how to pack the goods and keep them intact until they get to the destination, in either a couple of days or several weeks or months later.

试想一下车辆、船只或古代使用的手推车。操作者对客人委托的货物可能完全不知情或无权获得足够的相关信息。但他们必须知道如何包装这些货物并将其安全送达目的地。这一运送过程可能需要一、两天或几个星期,有的甚至达数月之久。

The client knows what the goods are, and the receiver normally knows how to use it. It may be some sort of oil of 1000kg, and the operator needs to find out the most suitable container to hold it. For the Western medicines or Traditional Chinese herbs, we got to know the way to protect them from being polluted by water or dirty air. When it comes to a precious sword, all we do is to get a nice sheath rather than trying to become a fencing master before delivering it to the hand of the receiver.

客户知道这批货物是什么,而收货人自然清楚它们派何用场。它们可能是重约1吨的某种油品,而操作者需要找到最适合的容器来盛装它。若货物是中西药物,我们得知道如何避免它们受到水气或混浊空气的污染。如果要运送的是一把宝剑,我们所要做的是提供一个精致的剑匣,而不是去尝试成为了一名剑客。

So, the primary goal of translation is to get a suitable container or packaging for the different things consigned by the customers. Then, find out the shortest and safest path to make a timely delivery of the ‘goods’ to the receiver at the destination.

所以,翻译的首要任务是针对客户托运的「货物」,设法去获取一个适当的容器或一种包装方法。然后,找到最快便、最安全的运送路线,将「货物」及时送到目的地。

My translation experience tells me: Translators don’t have to be a pharmacist, a fencing master nor any of the highly professional ones in their specific fields. With a solid foundation of language skills, professional translators may get a satisfied translation by identifying each of the details that may be contained in the source documents at all costs.

根据我的翻译体会:译者不必成为一名药剂师,一名剑术高手或特定翻译领域的任何一类行业专才。当具备了扎实的语言基本功后,专业翻译人员就可以通过全力求证源文件中的每个细节来达到令人满意的翻译效果。

To be an insider of translated materials is good, but casual and not always required for pros. Driven by the survival pressure, highly capable freelancers are forced to take on different jobs involving the subjects totally irrelevant to each other. The reason is here: they are able to quickly identify the doubts and traps, followed by confirming the queries in an effective manner. This is mostly beyond the reach of the part-time translators’ awareness.

译者本人是熟知翻译材料的行家固然可喜,但这实属偶遇,并非从事专业翻译之必需要求。对于高水平的自由译者来说,他们出于生存压力会接下各类翻译任务,所涉及的行业题材之间可能风马牛不相及。但是,他们能够迅速判明各类疑难和陷阱并予以有效确认。这一点是大多数业余和兼职译者难以做到的。
