奥巴马演讲-在911袭击10周年演讲稿

奥巴马演讲-在911袭击10周年演讲稿The Partnerships We Need我们需要的伙伴关系By President Barack Obama作者:美国总统巴拉克·奥巴马On this 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001, we remember that 9/11 was not only an attack on the United States, it was an attack on the world and on the humanity and hopes that we share.值此2001年9月11日恐怖主义袭击10周年之际,我们铭记不忘,9/11不仅是对美国发动的攻击,也是对全世界、全人类和我们的共同希望发动的攻击。
We remember that among the nearly 3,000 innocent people lost that day were hundreds of citizens from more than 90 nations. They were men and women, young and old, of many races and faiths. On this solemn anniversary we join with their families and nations in honoring their memory.我们铭记不忘,那一天近3,000多名无辜的人民失去了生命,其中数百人是其他90多个国家的公民。
他们当中有男有女,有老有少,来自许多种族,拥有不同的信仰。
在这个庄严的纪念日到来之时,我们与遇难者的家人和国家一起对他们表示追思。
We remember with gratitude how ten years ago the world came together as one. Around the globe, entire cities came to a standstill for moments of silence. People offered their prayers in churches, mosque s, synagogues and other places of worship. And those of us in the United States will never forget how people in every corner of the world stood with us in solidarity in candlelight vigils and among the seas of flowers placed at our embassies.我们铭记不忘,10年前全世界戮力同心如一人,我们为此心怀感激。
英语翻译——精选推荐

英语翻译英汉翻译的长期实验过程中,我国翻译⼯作者累积了不少英汉翻译经验。
硬板来说,修辞翻译可采⽤寓意于形,舍形取意,换形保意或保形添意等⽅法。
1)But after six years of a stromy marriage,the strong woamn decided to end it.. She didn’t want her son to grow up thinking that kind of relationship wasnormal.【佳译】在流年风⾬交加的婚姻⽣活之后,这位⼥强⼈决定结束这⼀场婚姻。
他不愿让⼉⼦再这样的环境中长⼤,误认为这种婚姻关系很正常。
【评注】原⽂⽤了隐喻(metaphor)这⼀修辞⼿法,⽤暴风⾬来形容婚姻的糟糕。
由于暴风⾬这⼀形象的普遍存在,中国读者能够通过⽂章了解它的含义,所以在翻译时保留这形象,既能传达意义,⼜能表达风格。
这就是寓意于形的翻译,也可以说是最理想的修辞翻译。
2)Because of his one-man style of operation,Henry Kissinger had become a kindof bottleneck in his own National Security Council system.【佳译】由于亨利·基⾟格惯于独断专⾏,他已经成了国家安全事务委员会⼯作中的⼀块绊脚⽯。
【评注】这句话同样⽤了暗喻这⼀修辞⼿法,⽽“bottleneck”这⼀形象所隐含的“阻碍”意思也同样为中国⼈所熟知。
但是在汉语中,“瓶颈”这种表述⼀般对事不对⼈,所以不宜直接移⽤。
在这种情况下,我们可以思考⼀下,含⼀种是否有类似的暗喻可以⽤来替代。
于是,我们可以找到“绊脚⽯”这个⾃然贴切的说法,这就是翻译过程中所谓的换形保意。
3)Can we anticipate a day when secretaries will be a mix of man and women-or when the mention of a male nurse will no longer raise eyebrows?【佳译】我们能否预见到这么⼀天:当秘书的性别男⼥各半,或者是当有⼈说起男护⼠时,⼈们不会再感到惊讶?【评注】原句依然⽤的是暗喻,但这⾥的“raise eyebrows”这个形象如译成“耸起了眉⽑”,肯定会让中国读者不知所云,因为汉语也没有类似2)中“瓶颈”那样形象的表达。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.After the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center, structural engineers are trying hard to solve a question that a month ago would have been completely unthinkable: Can building be designed to withstand catastrophic blasts inflicted by terrorists?Ten days after the terrorist attacks on the twin towers, structural engineers from the University at Buffalo and the Multidisciplinary Center for Earthquake Engineering Research (MCEER) headquartered at UB traveled to ground zero(被毁现场) as part of a project funded by the National Science Foundation. “Our objective in visiting ground zero was to go and look at the buildings surrounding the World Trade Center, those buildings that are still standing, but that sustained damage,” said M. Bruneau, Ph. D. “Our immediate hope is that we can develop a better understanding as to why those buildings remain standing, while our long-term goal is to see whether earthquake engineering technologies can be married to existing technologies to achieve enhanced performance of buildings in the event of terrorist attacks,” he added.Photographs taken by the investigators demonstrate in startling detail the monumental damage inflicted on the World Trade Center towers and buildings inthe vicinity. One building a block away from the towers remains standing, but was badly damaged. “This building is many meters away from the World Trade Center and yet we see a column there that used to be part of that building,” explained A. Whittaker, Ph. D. “The column became a missile that shot across the road, through the window and through the floor.”The visit to the area also revealed some surprises, according to the engineers. For example, the floor framing system in one of the adjacent buildings was quite rugged, allowing floors that were pierced by tons of falling debris to remain intact. “Highly redundant ductile framing systems may provide a simple, but robust strategy for blast resistance,” he added. Other strategies may include providing alternate paths for gravity loads in the event that a load-bearing column fails.A. Reinhorn, Ph. D. noted that “Earthquake shaking has led to the collapse of many buildings in the past. It induces dynamic response and extremely high stresses and deformations in structural components. Solutions developed for earthquake-resistant design may be directly applicable to blast engineering and terrorist-resistant design. Part of our mission now at UB is to transfer these solutions and to develop new ones where none exist at present.”31.The question raised in the first paragraph is one _________________.A) that was asked by structural engineers a month agoB) that is too difficult for structural engineers to answer even nowC) that was never thought of before the terrorist attackD) that terrorists are eager to find a solution to正确答案: C32.The project funded by the National Science Foundation________________.A) was first proposed by some engineers at UBB) took about two days to completeC) was to investigate the damage caused by the terrorist attackD) was to find out why some buildings could survive the blasts正确答案: D33.The column mentioned by Dr. Whittaker____________________.A) was part of the building close to the World Trade CenterB) was part of the World Trade CenterC) was shot through the window and the floor of the World Trade CenterD) damaged many buildings in the vicinity of the World Trade Center正确答案: A34.A surprising discovery made by the investigators during their visit to ground zero is that ________.A) floors in the adjacent building remain undamagedB) some floor framing systems demonstrate resistance to explosionC) simple floor framing systems are more blast resistantD) floors in one of the adjacent buildings were pierced by tons of debris正确答案: B35.What Dr. Reinhorn said in the last paragraph may imply all the following EXCEPT that ________.A) blast engineers should develop new solutions for terror-resistant designB) blast engineering can borrow technologies developed for terror-resistant designC) solutions developed for earthquake-resistant design may apply to terrorist-resistant designD) blast engineering emerges as a new branch of science正确答案: DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.In her international bestselling Talk to the Hand, author Lynne Truss argues that common courtesies such as saying “Excuse me” are practically extinct. There are certainly plenty who would agree with her.Is it really true? We decided to find out by experiments. In dozens of American cities, our reporters performed two experiments: “door tests” (Would anyone hold one open for them?) and “document drops” (Who would help them retrieve a pile of “accidentally” dropped papers?). Along the way, the reporters encountered all types:men and women of different races, ages,professions, and income levels.While 90 percent of the people passed the door test,only 55 percent passed the document drop. Are people less likely to help others when doing so takes extra effort or time? Not always, the reporters found. Take the pregnant woman who thought nothing of bending down to help us with our papers. Or the woman named Liz who balanced two coffees,her keys and her wallet on a takeout tray with one hand,while picking up papers off the wet pavement with the other. Her reason for helping? “I was there,”she said.Overall, men were the most willing to help, especially when it came to document drops. In those,men offered aid 63 percent of the time, compared to 47 percent among women. Of course, men weren’t entirely democratic about whom they’d help. All of them held the door for the female reporter, and were more than twice as likely to help her pick up fallen papers than they were to help our male reporter.By far, the most common reason people cited for being willing to go outof their way to help others was their upbringing. “It’s the way I was raised,”said one young woman who held a door open despite struggling with her umbrella on a rainy day in Brooklyn. We realize this isn’t a rigorous scientific study, but we believe it is a reasonable real-world test of good manners around the globe. And it’s comforting to know that in a place where millions of people push one another each day to get ahead, they’re able to do it with a smile. Hey, if they can make nice here,they can make nice anywhere.36.Which of the following is the best word to describe the experiments?A) Scientific.B) Biased.C) Revolutionary.D) Realistic.正确答案: D37.The examples of the pregnant woman and Liz are used to show that some people___________________.A) may take the trouble to help othersB) won’t take the trouble to help othersC) may help others save timeD) won’t help others save time正确答案: A38.According to the experiments, ________________.A) women are more carefulB) women are more likely to need helpC) men are more ready to helpD) men are more democratic in helping others正确答案: C39.Helping others is a behavior that is largely influenced by_______________.A) social normB) family educationC) personal situationD) personal character正确答案: B40.The results of the experiments have shown that common courtesies_______________.A) are still with usB) are disappearingC) vary with professionsD) need rigorous study正确答案: APart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Four passenger airliners were hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists to be flown into buildings in suicide attacks. Two of the planes, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, were crashed into the North and South towers, respectively, of the World Trade Center complex in New York City.
9/11 conspiracy theories attribute the planning and execution of the September 11th,2oo1attacks against the United States to parties other than, or in addition to, alQaeda or claim there was advance knowledge of the attacks among high-level government officials. Government investigations and independent reviews have found no evidence for the theories. Proponents of these conspiracy theories claim there are inconsistencies in the official conclusions, or evidence which was either ignored or overlooked.
以说明文方式写飞向蓝天的恐龙英语作文

以说明文方式写飞向蓝天的恐龙英语作文全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇1Flying Dinosaurs Soaring into the Blue SkyHave you ever wondered what it would be like to see a real living dinosaur? While dinosaurs roamed the Earth millions of years ago, for most of us they seem like creatures out of fantasy and fiction. However, scientists now have evidence that some dinosaurs could actually fly! Let me take you on an exciting journey to explore these amazing flying dinosaurs that soared through the prehistoric skies.First, let's begin by understanding what defines a dinosaur. The name "dinosaur" comes from the Greek words "deinos" meaning terrible or fearfully great, and "sauros" meaning lizard or reptile. So dinosaurs were a kind of terrible lizard or reptile that dominated the land for over 160 million years, from the Triassic period around 230 million years ago through the Cretaceous period about 66 million years ago. Most dinosaurs were quadrupeds (four-legged) or bipeds (two-legged), were cold-blooded, and laid eggs. The largest dinosaurs were massiveplanteaters like the Brachiosaurus. The most fearsome were the theropod meat-eaters like T-Rex with its massive jaws and teeth.Now here's where it gets really fascinating - not all dinosaurs lived exclusively on land. Paleontologists have discovered evidence of several species of dinosaurs that had feathers and could fly or glide through the air! These flying and gliding dinosaurs are now classified as a special subgroup called "aviremigians."One of the earliest known aviremigians was the Archaeopteryx, which lived around 150 million years ago in what is now Germany. With its blend of avian (bird-like) and reptilian features, Archaeopteryx is considered one of the first feathered dinosaurs and a crucial link between dinosaurs and modern birds. It had teeth like a dinosaur but also had feathers forming wings and a feather tail like a bird. Most impressively, its wings appear to have allowed powered flight rather than just gliding.Fast forward tens of millions of years, and there is evidence of many other types of feathered dinosaurs during the Cretaceous period around 100 million years ago, particularly in China. One famous example is the Microraptor, a small aviremigian around 3 feet long that had feathers on both its arms and legs! This "four-winged" dinosaur could likely fly andmaneuver quite adeptly. Another intriguing Cretaceous find is the Zhenyuanopterus, a bizarre dinosaur with membranous wings formed by a striking elongation of its arms and fingers, almost like a bat!Just imagine these incredible feathered dinosaurs soaring and swooping through the prehistoric skies. The Microraptor may have used its four wings to hover and pluck small prey from trees, while the Archaeopteryx could have achieved powerful wing-assisted leaps into the air to hunt insects or small animals. The Zhenyuanopterus with its huge wings may have been a skilled glider and scavenger. What an amazing sight these feathery, winged dinosaurs must have been!Of course, not all aviremigians achieved full powered flight like modern birds. Many were likely just gliders or had limited flying abilities. Some like Microraptor may have been somewhere in between - using feathered arms and legs to assist with gliding, flapping, and aerodynamic maneuvers. But the fact that dinosaurs evolved feathers and wings at all is a remarkable phenomenon.So how and why did these dinosaurs develop the ability for aerial abilities? Most scientists believe feathers first evolved in dinosaurs not for flight, but for other purposes like heatregulation, mating displays, or protection. Over millions of years of evolution, these feathery filaments became more elaborate, enlarged, and optimized for aerodynamics - eventually leading to winged dinosaurs capable of gliding or even powered flight. This trajectory paved the evolutionary path towards modern birds, which are the only surviving descendants of the dinosaur lineage.In addition to the physical fossils, we can find other clues about flying dinosaurs from trackways and behavior. For example, some fossilized footprints and trackways show evidence of crouching and launching behaviours consistent with flight takeoff. Other dinosaur fossils preserve contents from their last meal, including birds or other dinosaurs, indicating predatory behaviours perhaps involving active pursuit from the air.Flying dinosaurs open up remarkable possibilities for how dinosaurs lived, hunted, migrated, and interacted with their environments. Could some species have been nocturnal aerial hunters, swirling through the night skies to pluck small mammals from trees using remarkable low-light vision and hawk-like auditory tracking skills? Others may have been passive gliders or soarers, catching rides on prehistoric air currents to travel longdistances and taking advantage of a bird's-eye view to spot prey or protect territory. We can only imagine the incredible diversity of lifestyles enabled by the power of flight and gliding.As you can tell, I find the topic of flying dinosaurs to be simply awe-inspiring. Just envision a Microraptor gliding amongst the gigantic trunks and foliage of the ancient forests, dodging hungry predators below. Picture the majestic silhouette of a Zhenyuanopterus riding prehistoric wind currents with its swan-like wings outstretched. Or a flock of feathery Archaeopteryx taking to the skies in a flurry of beating feathers as they scramble for an insect swarm. What marvelous scenes from the age of dinosaurs!While dinosaurs went fully extinct around 66 million years ago after that cataclysmic asteroid impact, their role in ultimately giving rise to modern birds means dinosaurs still live among us in an airborne form. Every time I see a bird soaring overhead, I imagine I'm witnessing a small part of the majesty and atmospheric grandeur of those flying dinosaurs from prehistoric times. The skies of today are a poor imitation of what they once were when real feathered dinosaurs ruled the aerialrealms.In closing, the more we study the deep fossil record, the more evidence arises that dinosaurs were not just ancient,plodding, terrestrial creatures. The discovery of aviremigians shows that many dinosaur species took the first critical evolutionary steps that gave rise to aerodynamic capabilities and the power of winged flight. To me, the thought of feathered dinosaurs gliding, soaring, and flapping their wings to take to the prehistoric skies is simply astonishing. It brings the entire dinosaur phenomenon to staggering new heights and reminds us that these "terrible lizards" were far more spectacular, diverse, and ingenious than we ever imagined.篇2Flying Dinosaurs Soaring into the Blue SkyHave you ever gazed up at the clouds on a sunny day and imagined dinosaurs taking to the skies? It might sound like a fantastical scenario from a science fiction movie, but the truth is, some dinosaurs could actually fly – or at least glide through the air. These incredible creatures, known as pterosaurs, were the first vertebrates to evolve the ability of powered flight. Let me take you on a journey back in time to explore the wonders of these "flying dragons" and how they managed to defy gravity.To begin with, pterosaurs were not dinosaurs in the strict sense. They belonged to a separate group of reptiles that existedduring the same time period as dinosaurs, roughly 228 to 66 million years ago. Unlike their land-dwelling cousins, pterosaurs had evolved a unique set of adaptations that allowed them to conquer the skies.One of the most striking features of pterosaurs was their wings. Unlike the feathered wings of modern birds, pterosaur wings were formed by a stretchy membrane of skin and muscle that extended between their elongated fourth finger and their body. This wing structure, known as a "pteroid," was incredibly lightweight yet sturdy enough to support their bodies in flight.But how did these ancient reptiles achieve lift? The answer lies in their skeletal structure. Pterosaurs had exceptionally large breastbones, which provided ample space for the attachment of powerful flight muscles. Additionally, their lightweight, hollow bones and air sacs within their bodies further reduced their overall weight, making it easier for them to take off and stay airborne.Now, let's imagine ourselves transported back to the Late Cretaceous period, around 70 million years ago. The lush, tropical landscape stretches out before us, dotted with towering coniferous trees and ferns. Suddenly, a shadow passes overhead,and we gaze up in awe as a magnificent pterosaur glides gracefully across the azure sky.This particular specimen is a Quetzalcoatlus, one of the largest flying animals of all time. With a wingspan that could reach an incredible 10 meters (33 feet), it casts an imposing silhouette against the clouds. Its elongated, toothless beak and slender neck give it an almost otherworldly appearance.As the Quetzalcoatlus circles overhead, we can observe its remarkable flying abilities. Unlike modern birds that flap their wings continuously, these ancient flyers were primarily soarers and gliders. They would launch themselves into the air by pushing off with their powerful hind limbs, then use thermal currents and wind patterns to remain aloft for extended periods, conserving energy.But pterosaurs weren't just passive gliders; they were also capable of powered flight. By flapping their wings, they could generate enough thrust to take off from the ground and maneuver through the air with agility. This ability likely came in handy when hunting for prey or evading predators.Speaking of prey, pterosaurs had a diverse range of diets depending on their size and habitat. Smaller species, like the Rhamphorhynchus, probably fed on insects, fish, and small landvertebrates. Larger ones, such as the fearsome Quetzalcoatlus, may have been apex predators, hunting everything from infant dinosaurs to early mammals.As we continue to observe the Quetzalcoatlus soaring overhead, we can't help but marvel at the sheer grandeur of these prehistoric aviators. Imagine the sense of freedom they must have experienced, riding the winds and surveying the world from a bird's-eye view.But pterosaurs weren't just impressive flyers; they were also remarkably successful survivors. They ruled the skies for over 150 million years, outlasting even the mighty dinosaurs. However, their reign eventually came to an end during theCretaceous-Paleogene extinction event, approximately 66 million years ago, which wiped out around 75% of all plant and animal species on Earth.While pterosaurs may be extinct, their legacy lives on in the countless bird species that now grace our skies. Many paleontologists believe that the evolution of feathered flight in birds was heavily influenced by the earlier success of pterosaurs. In a way, these "flying dragons" paved the way for the diverse array of avian life we enjoy today.As our imaginary journey through time comes to an end, we can't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder at the incredible adaptations and evolutionary achievements of these ancient flyers. Pterosaurs remind us that nature is full of surprises and that the limits of what is possible are constantly being pushed and redefined.So, the next time you gaze up at the clouds, let your imagination take flight. Picture those majestic pterosaurs soaring through the skies, their leathery wings outstretched against the vast blue expanse. Remember, they once ruled the heavens, and their spirit of exploration and conquest lives on in the birds that now grace our world with their presence.篇3Flying Dinosaurs Soaring into the Blue SkyHave you ever gazed up at the clouds and imagined what it would be like to sprout wings and take flight? To feel the rush of the wind beneath your wings as you soar effortlessly through the endless blue expanse of the sky? Well, believe it or not, there was once a time when dinosaurs could do just that! That's right, flying dinosaurs were a real thing that existed millions of years ago during the Mesozoic Era.Now, I know what you might be thinking - "Dinosaurs could fly? But they were huge scaly lizard-like creatures!" And you'd be absolutely right, most of the dinosaurs we know and love like the mighty T-Rex and Triceratops were indeed land-bound behemoths. However, there was an incredible evolutionary branch of the dinosaur family tree that took to the skies and became the first feathered flying vertebrates.These ancient winged wonders are known as Pterosaurs, and they were a separate group from dinosaurs, despite having lived during the same era. While not technically dinosaurs themselves, Pterosaurs were closely related reptilian cousins that developed the ability of powered flight. And let me tell you, some of these flying dinosaur-like creatures were absolutely mind-blowing!Take Quetzalcoatlus for example, one of the largest flying animals of all time with a massive wingspan that stretched over 30 feet! That's wider than the wingspan of a small airplane. Just imagine a creature that size taking to the skies, its leathery wings casting vast shadows as it soared overhead. It's bothawe-inspiring and terrifying to envision.Then you had the pteranodons, which were more along the lines of what you might typically picture when you think of a "pterodactyl" (which is actually not a single species, but a generalterm used to describe any pterosaur). With their iconic crest adorning their elongated skulls and wings spanning up to 20 feet wide, these flying giants patrolled the skies searching for fish in ancient oceans and inland seas.But pterosaurs weren't the only dinos catching air in prehistoric times. There were also smaller feathered dinosaurs that are believed to be the ancestors of modern birds. Creatures like Archaeopteryx, often called the first bird, had traits of both dinosaurs and birds with its feathered wings, sharp teeth, and bony tail. It was a remarkable evolutionary link that helped bridge the gap between terrestrial and aerial vertebrates.Can you picture the scene millions of years ago, as these early feathered flyers took their maiden voyages into the blue sky? Massive pterosaurs gliding alongside their smaller feathered dino-cousins, blazing a trail for the evolution of bird flight as we know it today. It must have been an incredible sight to behold.Of course, we can't discuss flying dinosaurs without mentioning everyone's favorite, the mighty and magnificent winged reptiles we call dragons! Okay, okay, I know what you're thinking - "Dragons weren't real!" But hear me out, because theresemblance between dragons of myth and the flying pterosaurs of prehistory is uncanny.From their massive size and leathery wings to the fiery tales of these beasts breathing jets of flame, could the myths of dragons across countless cultures have been inspired by actual encounters with fossils of flying dinosaurs? Puddles of prehistoric "dragon drool" (the thick flaming-looking substance that seeped from cracks and crevices) or tales passed down over generations of these incredible winged titans of the skies? It's a fascinating theory to ponder.Just imagine - the legendary dragons we've read about in stories could have been based on real flying reptilian monsters from millions of years ago! Those ancient nights lit by the pale moon, a terrifying screech pierces the silence as a massive winged silhouette soars overhead. I don't know about you, but I would NOT want to encounter a real life fire-breathing pterodactyl the size of a small plane!Alas, while the reign of flying reptiles ultimately came to an end around 66 million years ago, the dream of winged flight continues in the birds that are the feathered descendants of those early pioneers. As I gaze out over a brilliant blue sky,watching a hawk effortlessly glide on the currents of wind, I'm reminded of its prehistoric pterosaur ancestors.Those ancient flying dinosaurs and feathered proto-birds faced incredible odds, taking that first leap from the surfaces they had always known and breaking the bonds of gravity. They fundamentally changed the rules of what vertebrates were capable of and expanded the frontiers of the sky in ways never imagined. And for that daring and tenacity in the face of unfathomable challenges, we owe them a debt of gratitude and awe.So the next time you find yourself outdoors staring skyward, let your imagination soar as you picture those ghostly silhouettes of leathery wings from long ago, filling the open blue canvas above with their amazing aerobatic displays of flight. For in their memory and the birds that carry on their legacy today, the spirits of flying dinosaurs still live on, reminding us that with perseverance and evolutionary adaptability, even the most seemingly impossible of dreams can become reality. Now, let your mind take wing alongside them.。

It's a tale that spansmillions of years, filled with remarkable discoveries andmind-boggling adaptations. In this essay, I'll take you on a journey through time, exploring the evidence that links these two seemingly disparate groups of animals and unraveling the mysteries of their shared ancestry.Let's start at the beginning, in the Mesozoic Era, when dinosaurs ruled the Earth. These ancient reptiles were a diverse group, ranging from the massive, long-necked sauropods to the fearsome, meat-eating theropods. It was among the latter group that we find the earliest clues to the avian connection.One of the most significant discoveries in this regard was the fossilized remains of Archaeopteryx, a creature that lived around 150 million years ago. Archaeopteryx possessed a unique combination of features – it had feathers and wings like a bird, but also retained many characteristics of its dinosaur ancestors, such as teeth and a long, bony tail. This remarkable fossil provided the first tangible evidence that birds evolved from a specific group of dinosaurs known as theropods.But Archaeopteryx was just the beginning. As paleontologists continued to unearth fossils, more and more similarities between dinosaurs and birds came to light. For instance, many theropod dinosaurs, such as Velociraptor andDeinonychus, had lightweight, hollow bones and a rigid, birdlike furcula (wishbone) – adaptations that likely helped them move quickly and efficiently.Furthermore, the discovery of feathered dinosaurs like Microraptor and Protarchaeopteryx revealed that feathers, once thought to be a unique avian trait, had actually evolved in dinosaurs long before the first birds took flight. These feathers likely served a variety of functions, from insulation to display, and eventually paved the way for the development of powered flight.As compelling as the fossil evidence is, scientists have also found support for the dinosaur-bird connection in their genetic makeup. By studying the DNA of modern birds and comparing it to that of other reptiles, researchers have identified a close evolutionary relationship between birds and certain theropod dinosaurs, such as Tyrannosaurus rex and Velociraptor.But how did these feathered, bipedal dinosaurs eventually evolve into the diverse array of birds we know today? The answer lies in a series of remarkable adaptations that allowed early birds to take to the skies.One key adaptation was the evolution of a lightweight, hollow-boned skeleton, which made it easier for these animals tobecome airborne. Additionally, the development of a specialized respiratory system, involving air sacs that helped facilitate efficient gas exchange, allowed birds to meet the high metabolic demands of powered flight.Another crucial adaptation was the evolution of feathers specialized for flight. These feathers, with their intricate structure and aerodynamic properties, enabled birds to generate lift and maneuver with precision in the air. Over time, these feathers became increasingly specialized, leading to the diverse array of wing shapes and flight styles we see in modern birds.As birds took to the skies, they underwent a rapid diversification, adapting to different environments and ecological niches. Some became specialized for soaring and gliding, like eagles and hawks, while others evolved for agile, maneuverable flight, like hummingbirds and swallows. Still others, like ostriches and emus, lost the ability to fly altogether, adapting to life on the ground.But despite this incredible diversity, all modern birds share a common ancestor – a feathered, theropod dinosaur that took those first tentative steps towards powered flight millions of years ago.In recent years, our understanding of the dinosaur-bird connection has been further enriched by the study of living birds and their behavior. For instance, researchers have observed that many modern birds exhibit behaviors and traits that are reminiscent of their dinosaur ancestors, such as parental care, nest building, and complex social structures.Additionally, the study of bird development has shed light on the evolutionary processes that shaped their unique anatomy and physiology. By examining the embryonic stages of bird development, scientists have found striking similarities to the development of their dinosaur ancestors, providing further evidence of their shared evolutionary history.As we continue to unravel the mysteries of this fascinating evolutionary journey, one thing is clear: the story of dinosaurs and birds is a testament to the incredible power of adaptation and evolution. It reminds us that life on Earth is constantly changing and evolving, and that even the most unlikely of transformations can occur over vast spans of time.For me, as a student, this story not only fuels my curiosity about the natural world but also serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of scientific inquiry and discovery. It is through the tireless efforts of paleontologists, geneticists, andresearchers in various fields that we have been able to piece together this remarkable tale, shedding light on one of the most captivating chapters in the history of life on our planet.As I continue my studies, I am filled with a sense of wonder and appreciation for the incredible journey that has brought us from the age of dinosaurs to the present day. And who knows what other fascinating revelations await us as we continue to explore the intricate tapestry of life on Earth? One thing is certain – the story of dinosaurs and birds is far from over, and the chapters yet to be written promise to be just as fascinating as those that have come before.篇2Dinosaurs and Birds: A Surprising ConnectionWhen I was a little kid, I loved dinosaurs. I had dinosaur toys, dinosaur books, dinosaur pajamas - you name it. I was obsessed.I knew all the names and could rattle off facts about every species. Tyrannosaurus rex was the king of the dinosaurs, Triceratops had those awesome horns, and don't even get me started on the long-necked plant eaters like Brachiosaurus. Dinosaurs were just the coolest things ever.Little did I know back then just how closely related dinosaurs were to modern birds, the unassuming little feathered creatures we see all around us every day. It seems totally bizarre to link massive prehistoric reptiles to the robins, sparrows, and pigeons of today. But the more you dig into it, the more that unexpected connection starts to make sense.Let's start with the basics. Dinosaurs first appeared around 230 million years ago during the Triassic period. For around 165 million years after that, dinosaurs absolutely dominated the land, evolving into thousands of diverse species across the globe. Then, around 66 million years ago, a catastrophic asteroid impact caused mass extinction, wiping out all the remaining dinosaurs except for a handful of feathered theropods - the dinosaur group that included Velociraptor and, ultimately, modern birds.So how do we know birds descended from dinosaurs? The evidence is overwhelming. For one, we've discovered countless preserved dinosaur fossils with intricate feather patterns and even wings. Archaeopteryx, which lived around 150 million years ago, is one of the most famous examples. It had feathers like a bird but many other reptilian traits like teeth and a bony tail. It was essentially a dino-bird link between the two groups.Even more convincingly, birds and dinosaurs share over 300 distinct anatomical traits, from the shape of their eggs and bone structures to the positioning of their eyes, nostrils, and reproductive systems. A bird's wishbone is actually aDeveloped fusing of dinosaur collar bones. When you look at an X-ray of a bird, the skeletal similarities to dinosaurs are unmistakable.Beyond the physical evidence, we've also sequenced dinosaur protein compounds extracted from fossilized bone and compared them to modern bird proteins. The molecular makeup matches, confirming the evolutionary relationship. Paleontologists have traced theropod dinosaur species branching off into birds through clear transitional fossils over millions of years.Perhaps the coolest link between birds and dinosaurs though is their behavior. Lots of dinosaurs engaged in behaviors we associate with modern birds. Fossil sites have uncovered preserved nests, clutches of eggs, tracks of baby dinosaurs, hints of feather shaking and dust bathing, and even evidence of parental care like brooding. Some dinosaur species may have engaged in mating dances and calls like birds. Thanks to analysis of lung structures, we think at least some dinosaurs may havebeen warm-blooded and able to engage in high energy activity like flight.So next time you see a robin hopping around or a hawk soaring high overhead, just remember that you're looking at one of the last surviving lineages of dinosaurs that managed to live through the mass extinction event 66 million years ago. Birds are literally modern dinosaurs.This dinosaur-bird link has totally reshaped how scientists view the evolution of life on earth and the branching of species over immense timescales. As a dinosaur-obsessed kid, I never could have imagined that birds were essentially feathery, shrunk-down versions of creatures like T. rex. But the more you learn, the more it makes perfect sense.While the giant prehistoric megafauna may be long gone, we're surrounded every day by the descendants of dinosaurs that survived by evolving into feathered, flying forms. Birds are incredibly diverse and successful, inhabiting virtually every ecosystem across the planet. In many ways, they rule the earth just like their massive ancestors once did.So embrace your inner child's dinosaur fascination! Study birds, appreciate their links to the prehistoric past, and marvel at the incredible journey of evolution that allowed one branch ofthe dinosaurs to live on in the form of majestic hawks, hummingbirds, penguins, and all the other remarkable bird species we share the world with today. Dinosaurs may be extinct, but their distant grandchildren live all around us, soaring through the skies. How amazing is that?篇3The Dinobird ConnectionBy A Curious StudentWhen I was little, I loved dinosaurs. What kid doesn't? They were these gigantic, fierce creatures that dominated the Earth for millions of years before becoming extinct. I had dinosaur toys, books, bedsheets, you name it. My favorites were always the theropods – the "beast-footed" dinosaurs like T. Rex and Velociraptor that walked on two legs and had deadly claws and teeth.Little did I know back then just how closely related those scary dinos were to our modern-day feathered friends. It wasn't until I was older that I learned about the profound evolutionary link between dinosaurs and birds. This blew my mind and made me see birds in a whole new light. Those innocent little songbirdsat the feeder? Distant cousins of Tyrannosaurus Rex. It's one of the most fascinating areas of paleontology.The story begins in the late 1800s when scientists first started discovering excellently preserved dinosaur fossils with imprints of feathers and feather-like structures. This was revolutionary because it showed that dinosaurs weren't just big dumb lizards, but had evolved some remarkably bird-like characteristics tens of millions of years before the first true birds arrived.One of the most important dinosaur fossils that revealed this link was the Archaeopteryx, which lived around 150 million years ago in what is now Germany. The first Archaeopteryx fossil was discovered in 1861, and even by modern definitions, it was the earliest known bird. It had the feathers, wings, and wishbone of a bird, but also retained many dinosaur features like jaws with teeth and a bony tail.This "dino-bird" was clear evidence that birds evolved from small feathered dinosaurs, providing a transitional fossil showing their reptilian ancestors. Over the next century and a half, many more feathered dinosaur fossils were uncovered, further cementing the dinosaur-bird connection. A famous example isthe Microraptor, a four-winged dromaeosaurid covered in iridescent plumage.So how did this happen? How did a group of dinosaurs slowly evolve the characteristics of modern birds over millions of years? According to the evidence, bird-like traits like feathers first appeared in some lineages of small raptor-like theropod dinosaurs in the Late Jurassic period, around 160 million years ago.These early feathers were probably used for insulation and display at first, much like those on many modern reptiles. But eventually, natural selection favored feathers and skeletal structures better adapted for gliding or primitive flight as these gave theropods better mobility to hunt prey or escape predators. The feathers grew more aerodynamic and complex wing structures slowly took shape.Birds inherited many other unique adaptations from their dinosaur ancestors too. Their lungs, skeletal pneumaticity,egg-brooding behavior, nest-building abilities, and even the proteins that make up their feathers all have their origins in the dinosaur lineage. The relatively large size of birds' brains compared to other modern reptiles is another holdover from their highly intelligent theropod forebears.While birds are the only living dinosaurs today, they're just an evolutionary twig on the branching tree of theropod diversity that existed during the Mesozoic Era. other dinosaur lineages like the horned ceratopsians, armored ankylosaurs, duck-billed hadrosaurs, and gigantic long-necked sauropods all branched off from the main theropod trunk.But birds' direct ancestors were modest-sized feathered theropods called maniraptorans, which split off from other theropods like the iconic meat-eaters Allosaurus and Ceratosaurus. These agile, grasping maniraptorans eventually gave rise to lineages like dromaeosaurids ("raptors"), troodontids, oviraptorosaurs and birds.So while Velociraptor itself didn't have a direct lineage that became modern birds, it had a very similar body plan to the animals that did. Raptors were just fancy, non-avian maniraptorans, if you will. Their close cousins are the ones that kept gaining more and more birdlike adaptations over time until the first true birds evolved.That pivotal moment – the origin of the first birds as we'd define them today – happened around 150-160 million years ago in the Late Jurassic or Early Cretaceous Period. It was around thistime that the earliest members of the avian lineage became so advanced that they crossed the threshold into bona fide birds.These first avians were small, lightweight, winged maniraptorans that were finally optimized for powered flight rather than just gliding, with advanced feathers, fused hand bones, and other avian adaptations. Archaeopteryx was one of these early birds, but there were many other Archaeopteryx-like species.Once the basic avian body plan was established, birds took off (pun intended) into a wildly diverse range of forms over the next 100 million years, from swan-sized predators to diving sea birds to herding omnivores, all thriving alongside the other dinosaurs. But then a mass extinction struck 66 million years ago, wiping out all dinosaurs except the avian lineage.So after that cataclysmic asteroid or series of impacts, the descendants of the Archaeopteryx and other early birds inherited the Earth once dominated by the giant dinos. In the resulting ecological vacancies, birds evolved into many of the modern lineages we know today like raptors, shorebirds, waterfowl and more as they expanded to fill different niches.This incredible evolutionary story of how birds descended from feathered dinosaurs is now backed by tons of fossilevidence and biological data. It has become a simple fact in science. Yet it still seems mind-blowing when you really think about it deeply: that innocuous little sparrow on a branch is a surviving remnant and a very real "living dinosaur" – however distant and unrecognizable as its heritage may seem!Sure, they're just small, lightweight offshoots today of the mighty dinosaur lineages that once dominated the world. But birds branched off from feathered theropod dinosaurs, sharing things like egg-brooding, bone-pneumaticity, nest building behaviors and other traits with their ancestors like dromaeosaurids and other dino-cousins.Next time you see a bird, I want you to appreciate that creature for what it is – one of the last surviving dinosaurs. Birds are literally dinosaurs that lost weight and evolved feathers to become optimized for flight. So the next time a pigeon pecks at your toes for a bit of your hot dog, show some respect. You're in the presence of true dinosaur royalty!。

IntroductionOn 1st September 1939 Germany invaded Poland. They used a new type of warfare called …Blitzkrieg‟ or …Lightening War‟. This is a war when tanks and planes are used to knock out the defences so that the defending country is easier to conquer. Two days after this happened; Britain and France declared war on Germany and the other Axis powers. It wasn‟t until 7th December 1941, after a surprise attack by Japan, that destroyed most of America‟s navy whilst it was still at Pearl Harbour that America joined the war to help Britain and France. Also in the war was the Soviet Union under the control of Stalin. On 6th June 1944 the Allies Invaded France in a massive attack and by 2nd September 1945 the Allies had won the war.Turning PointsDunkirkThe rapid defeat of the Allies in France in 1940 came as a great shock to many people, not least the British Expeditionary Force. The Germans forced the British troops out of Belgium. Most of the troops fell back onto the beaches of Dunkirk between May 29th and June 4th 1940. The Royal Navy did not have enough ships to risk a lone rescue so they called upon the British public for help. Anyone who had a vessel capable of sailing across the channel was asked to come forward to help Britain in her …hour of need‟ The re was a massive response. The Makeshift navy was called the “Skylark Navy”. All together it took 7 days to complete the evacuation. Because the operation had to be done with such speed, guns and heavy fortifications had to be left behind. This cost lots of money but saved lives. Even though the defeat in France was a disaster, the event of saving the British troops boosted moral and made people believe that the operation was a great British success. The soldiers that had been rescued from Dunkirk were bitter towards the Nazis and this proved useful during the D-Day landings.Battle of BritainGermanys invasion of Britain could not succeed if the Luftwaffe did not have supremacy in the air. On 14th August 1940 the Luftwaffe launched an attack on British Bomber Command. In two weeks of air fighting, one quarter of British pilots were killed or badly injured. For 53 nights they came every night. On 7th September 1940 the Luftwaffe started bombing Cities. This was a fatal mistake. It gave the RAF time to regroup, repair airfields and train new pilots. This is probably what cost Germany the war. On 15th September 1940 the German air force came by daylight. Also, at this time there was a lot of propaganda going on to boost British citizens moral. People were asked to donate scrap metal for new planes. This metal would just have been dumped though, because metal was plentiful, pilots were not. On many radio broadcasts it was reported that more German planes were shot down than actually were. In some cases three or four times as many. The Britain won the Battle of Britain for a few reasons; the Allied planes, Spitfire and Hurricane easily outmatched the Luftwaffe‟s fighters. Also, the British pilots were highly trained and very efficient, they were ready to take of at a moments notice. At the height of the battle, they would be fighting practically all day. Just landing for fuel and ammunition.Battle of the AtlanticBecause Britain is an island, her supplies mainly brought in from abroad. This meant that Hitlercould cut off the supplies by bombing supply ships that were heading for British ports. Because Hitler had already gained control of most of the supply counties all he needed to do was to stop the Americans. He used a type of submarine called a U-boat. These were fairly heavily armed and could easily sink ships. To protect the ships from these, U-boats American ships would travel close together in convoys. American and British destroyers would surround these convoys, making it hard for U-boats to destroy and entire convoy and get home without damage. The battles were so frequent and hard to win that in 1941, 1299 allied ships were sunk (Six times as many as could be replaced). Only 87 German U-boats were sunk. To the Germans this was nothing. By July 1942 they were being launched at a rate of 30 per month. To cope with this new threat from U-boats, a new radar system was fitted to destroyers so that depth charges could be deployed in the correct area of sea. Radar systems were also fitted to planes so that they could seek-out and destroy U-boats whilst they were recharging their batteries. So that German U-boats could contact each other secretly, a new code was formed. This code was the Enigma code. Two Enigma machines were needed to encode and decode. This was very effective until one enigma machine and cipher documents were captured by the HMS Griffin, unharmed in May 1940. Thanks to this, the newly formed, ‟convoy‟ system of travel and the code-breakers of Bletchley park, the German U-boats were no longer as good a weapon as they were at the start of the warD-DayOn 6th June 6,500 vessels landed over 130,000 men on five Normandy beaches: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword. 12,000 aircraft ensured air superiority. They bombed German defences and provided cover. On Utah beach 23,000 troops were landed at a cost of 197 casualties. However, on Omaha beach the landing was significantly harder, meeting with fierce German resistance, there were 4,649 American casualties. Overall, however, the landings caught the Germans by surprise and they were unable to counter-attack with the necessary speed and strength. Once the allied troops had destroyed the German defences they were free to bring new troops, machines and supplies over the channel and into Normandy. By the end of June, Eisenhower had 850,000 men and 150,000 vehicles ashore in Normandy. Fuel would have been a major problem for the allies, but thanks to the idea of piping oil straight from America, a pipeline had been built under the Atlantic Ocean. This was hard to destroy and so it was a success.In the weeks following the landings however, the narrow lanes and thick hedgerows of the French countryside slowed Allied progress considerably. Never the less in August Paris was liberated.EvacuationDue to the threat of war in 1939, women, children and old people were moved out of high-risk areas of Britain such as industrial areas and areas with a high population. In 1939 approximately 1,125,000 people were evacuated. This was a precaution and was not necessary. No direct action was taken against Britain by Germany. Most of the evacuees were transported back to their homes. However in August 1940, the war took a turn for the worse. The number evacuees rose to about 1,300,000. Life for evacuees was difficult. Most lived with people who didn‟t understand them. Some got to live with rich people and had a nice few years but most didn‟t. They were separated from their parents, not knowing if they were dead or alive. Many Mothers, children had diseases such as V ermin or Scabies, (see source). The evacuees where chosen by families, like at an auction.Each evacuee had a label saying where they were from and what medical conditions they had. This was horrible for most and “I'll take that one” became etched on the memory of our e vacuees.。

莱特兄弟是如何解开飞行的秘密的英语作文

莱特兄弟是如何解开飞行的秘密的英语作文全文共5篇示例,供读者参考篇1How the Wright Brothers Flew Like BirdsHi, my name is Sam and I'm going to tell you all about how the Wright Brothers became the first people to fly an airplane! It's a super amazing story of two regular guys who never gave up on their dream of soaring through the sky.Wilbur and Orville Wright were just a couple of ordinary brothers who lived in Dayton, Ohio at the end of the 1800s. Their dad edited a newspaper and their mom loved sharing her sense of humor and curiosity with her kids. Wilbur and Orville were always tinkering and making things.One day in 1899, the brothers read about this aeronaut named Wilbur Chanute who had been trying to make a flying machine. His gliders kept crashing, but the Wright Brothers thought they could do better. They were totally obsessed with figuring out how to fly!First thing they did was write letters to the Smithsonian Institute to get every book and report they could find aboutaeronautics. Smart move! The bros read everything and took tons of notes on wing shapes, materials, and flight theories. After a year of research, they felt ready to start testing their own designs.In 1900 they built their first glider and went to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina to try it out. This spot was perfect because it was right beside a huge sandy dune and got steady winds. On their first few attempts, the glider didn't really fly at all. It kinda just tumbled back to the ground. Whoops!But the brothers didn't give up. Nope, they went back to Dayton and built a breezy wind tunnel to test out different wing shapes. This helped them figure out that curved wings create more lift than flat ones. With this new knowledge, they rebuilt the glider and headed back to Kitty Hawk.The 1901 glider worked way better and the Wrights learned how to control it by shifting their body weight. Orville and Wilbur took turns gliding hundreds of feet through the air! They were getting so close to achieving powered flight.Back home again, they got to work on an engine and propeller system light enough to lift their machine off the ground. They asked for help from gearheads and engine experts until they built the perfect little motor.In 1903, it was finally time. The Wright Flyer was ready for its big debut on the windy dunes of Kitty Hawk. After a couple failed attempts, Wilbur climbed aboard and gave it a go on December 14th. The flyer stayed up for just 12 seconds, but it was the first self-propelled, heavier-than-air flight in history!Later that same day, Orville flew for almost a whole minute and went 852 feet. The age of aviation had begun! Those brothers turned a crazy dream into reality through curiosity, hard work, and perseverance.From there, Wilbur and Orville kept improving their incredible flying machines. They got their pilots licenses in 1910 and performed all kinds of demonstrations across America and Europe. Crowds were amazed to see humans soaring overhead in a gasoline-powered craft.The Wright Brothers are true American heroes who never stopped believing they could conquer the sky. Thanks to their world-changing invention, air travel and space exploration eventually became possible. All because two ordinary fellas from Ohio spent years chasing an extraordinary dream!Pretty neat, huh? Who knows what amazing advancements will happen next if we keep aiming high like Wilbur and Orville. Dream big and never quit trying new things. That's how theWright Brothers solved the secrets of flight and you can make the impossible possible too!篇2The Daring Dream of the Wright BrothersDo you like to ride your bike really fast? Can you imagine pedaling so hard that your bicycle lifted off the ground and you started flying through the air? That sounds crazy, but that's exactly what two brothers named Wilbur and Orville Wright dreamed of doing over 100 years ago!Back in 1899, nobody had ever flown a powered aircraft before. Some people had experimented with gliders that could glide through the air for a little bit, but they always came crashing back down to earth. The Wright brothers lived in Dayton, Ohio and owned a little bicycle shop, but they spent all their free time trying to figure out how to build a flying machine.At first, their flying experiments didn't go so well. In 1899, they used a small wind tunnel to test different wing shapes and wrote down everything they learned in their notebooks. The next few years, they built bigger and bigger gliders and flew them off the big sand dunes near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Can you imagine running along the beach, pulling a huge glider with yourhands, and then letting it go to see if it would fly? That must have been so exciting!The Wright brothers kept making mistakes and crashing their gliders, but instead of giving up, they learned from every single crash. Little by little, experiment by experiment, they started unlocking the secrets of aerodynamics and control. By 1902, their gliders could soar through the air for almost a minute at a time!But the Wright brothers knew that to truly fly, they needed an engine to power their aircraft, not just the wind. So in 1903, they added a small gasoline engine to one of their glider designs. On December 17, 1903, they went to the windswept beach at Kitty Hawk once again. This time, they weren't just testing a glider, but their first real powered aircraft!Wilbur ran alongside holding one wingtip while the engine roared to life. When he let go, the little aircraft called the Wright Flyer lifted off the ground and flew for 12 amazing seconds! Orville ran alongside as Wilbur brought the Flyer back down for a safe landing on the beach. They had done it - they had achieved powered flight for the first time in history!Of course, the first few flights were very short and covered less than the length of a football field. But the Wright brotherskept improving their designs over the next few years. By 1905, they were flying their aircraft for up to half an hour and doing incredible aerial tricks like figure-eights and banking turns.Can you imagine how excited they must have felt as their dreams came true? All those years of crashing gliders and fixing engines had finally paid off. They had unlocked the secrets of flight control through their wind tunnel experiments and risky test flights.When news of their incredible flying machines started spreading around the world, hardly anyone believed it at first. After all, every scientist had always said that human flight was impossible. The Wright brothers had to put on exhibitions in France and other countries before people started to accept that the age of aviation had truly begun.Within just a few years, other inventors were building their own airplanes and breaking the Wright brothers' records. Aviation went from being a crashing pile of broken wood to an amazing new industry. The Wright brothers' little bicycle shop in Dayton became a landmark that people visited to honor their incredible achievement.The next time you see a bird soaring through the sky or an airplane roaring overhead, remember the two bicycle mechanicsfrom Ohio who never stopped dreaming and experimenting until they unlocked the secrets of flight control and aerodynamics. Wilbur and Orville Wright proved that if you work hard and persevere through every setback, you can make the impossible possible!篇3How the Wright Brothers Figured Out How to FlyDo you ever look up at the sky and see an airplane flying high above? I sure do! And every time I see one, I think about the Wright Brothers - Wilbur and Orville. They were the first people ever to fly an airplane! Can you believe it? It wasn't that long ago that nobody could fly at all. But the Wright Brothers worked really hard, did a ton of experiments, and finally cracked the secret of flight. Let me tell you all about their amazing story!Wilbur and Orville grew up in Dayton, Ohio. Their mom was very smart and taught them a lot at home. Their dad gave them a toy helicopter when they were little kids, which got them super interested in flying machines. As they got older, they started a printing business together. But they never lost their dream of flying.In 1899, Wilbur wrote a letter to the Smithsonian Institution asking for help learning about aeronautics (that's the study of flying things). They sent him some books and materials on flying experiments that had been done before. Wilbur read everything very carefully, but he noticed that a lot of the information seemed wrong or didn't make much sense. That's when he realized nobody really knew exactly how flying worked yet!Wilbur and Orville decided they would have to figure it out themselves through experiments. They started off by making hundreds of wind tunnel tests to study how air flows over different shapes of wings. This helped them design wings that would give them the lift they needed to fly. It was complicated stuff, but they kept very careful notes on everything.Next, the brothers built a small wind tunnel of their own to test different wing shapes and angles. They made tons of models and tried them out one by one, writing down what worked and what didn't. They were very patient and scientific about everything.When they felt ready, the Wrights built a huge kite with a size of 500 square feet! They wanted to see how their wings would work with a man laying on them. A friend helped them test it out on some windy days, and it worked pretty well. Thisgave them more confidence that humans could fly with the right wings.Now they needed something with an engine to power their flying machine. They wrote to lots of engine companies but none of them made the lightweight engine they needed. So they had to come up with their own design for a small, light gasoline engine. It took them a long time to get it right, but they kept at it.While working on the engine, the Wrights were also figuring out how to steer and control whatever they built for flight. Most people thought you just needed to keep adjusting the wings, but the Brothers realized you also needed another way to balance and steer the aircraft. So they came up with an incredibly smart "wing warping" system using wires and pulleys. By twisting one way or the other, they could angle the wings to turn or balance. Genius!With their wings, lightweight engine, and controls figured out, it was finally time to try building their first real flying machine in 1903. They went to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina because of the strong steady winds there. On December 17th, everything was ready to go.Wilbur was supposed to go first, but after doing a quick pre-flight test, he noticed a crack in one of the machine's woodstrips. So Orville took the first turn. At 10:35 am, with Wilbur running alongside to help balance it, the craft built by the Wright Brothers left the ground and stayed up for 12 whole seconds! Orville flew 120 feet, then landed. Later that day, they made three more short flights, with the longest going 852 feet in 59 seconds.Can you imagine how incredibly excited the Wright Brothers must have felt? After years of work, planning, and persistence - human beings could finally fly! Of course, their first airplane didn't look anything like the huge jets we have today. It had a tiny engine, was made of wood and cloth, and could barely get off the ground. But those first few modest flights on the cold windy sands of Kitty Hawk completely changed the world forever.The Wright Brothers didn't stop there, though. They spent the next few years improving their designs, building stronger engines, and flying higher and farther each time. By 1905 they could fly for half an hour at a time! But getting people to believe what they had done was really tough at first. A lot of people thought the Wrights were making the whole thing up. Some even accused them of using a fake "buck-the-wind" catapult instead of really flying.It took a while, but Wilbur and Orville kept doing demonstrations to prove themselves. They gave interviews, showed off their planes, and took people up for short rides. Newspapers around the world finally started reporting on the "Flyingmachine Brothers" and their amazing invention. The Wrights were offered contracts to build planes in France, Germany, and the United States. Wilbur helped train the first pilots at flying schools they opened up.Sadly, Wilbur died of typhoid fever in 1912. But Orville kept working on airplanes and promoting flight for many more years. He got to see planes become bigger, faster, and able to carry lots of people and cargo. All because he and his brother spent years tinkering in a little workshop, being curious and doing experiment after experiment until they unlocked the secret of human flight.The story of the Wright Brothers shows that with patience, hard work, and never giving up on your dreams, you really can do amazing things that change the whole world. Every time I see an airplane flying overhead, I'll remember Wilbur and Orville and feel inspired to follow my own curiosity and interests as far as they'll take me!篇4The Daring Wright Brothers and Their Flying MachineHi everyone! Today I'm going to tell you an amazing story about two very clever and brave brothers named Wilbur and Orville Wright. These two guys did something totally incredible - they built the very first airplane and made the first powered flight! Can you imagine? Before them, nobody had ever flown in a machine that could take off from the ground by itself. The Wrights unlocked the secret of flight and proved that humans could soar through the skies like birds. It's one of the most amazing accomplishments in history!Wilbur and Orville were born in the 1800s in a little town called Dayton, Ohio. From a young age, they were super curious about how things worked. They spent a lot of time tinkering away, taking machines apart and putting them back together again. Their mom supported their curiosity and gave them a toy helicopter when they were little kids. That got them really interested in flying!As the Wright brothers grew up, they opened a bicycle shop together. But they never stopped dreaming about flying machines and reading everything they could about aeronautics - the science of flight. They became obsessed with trying to crack the problem of human flight using an airplane with an engine.At the time, lots of other inventors and scientists were trying to build flying machines too. A few even had some limited successes with gliders - planes without engines that could glide small distances after being launched from a hill or tall tower. But nobody had figured out how to build a plane that could take off from flat ground and stay up in the air for a nice long flight powered by an engine. That was the Wrights' grand goal!First, Wilbur and Orville built a wind tunnel to test different wing designs. A wind tunnel is a passage that blows air over objects to see how they move through the air. By doing ton of experiments in their wind tunnel, the brothers uncovered some totally new principles about aerodynamics - the way air flows over wings to create lift. Their wind tunnel tests allowed them to design brand-new wings that were much more efficient than anything anyone had built before.Next, the brothers built a bunch of gliders - airplane-like machines without engines - and traveled to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina to test them out. Kitty Hawk was a perfect place for their experiments because it had tall sandy hills that created lots of wind to keep the gliders aloft. Over the course of several years, the Wrights launched their gliders into the air hundreds of times. Each time they gathered more data and improved their designs.When they felt ready, Wilbur and Orville installed a small gasoline engine on one of their gliders to transform it into a powered airplane. They added propellers to be spun by the engine to provide thrust to move the plane forward through the air. Since they knew adding the engine's heavy weight would make the plane harder to get off the ground, they also built a small catapult track to help launch their plane at takeoff.Finally, on December 17, 1903, the Wright Brothers were ready for their big attempt at powered flight. The wind was blowing hard on that cold winter morning at Kitty Hawk. First, Wilbur ran alongside the plane and let it go after 40 feet. The plane rose into the air, flying an incredible 120 feet before the engine stalled and the craft came back down. A few hours later, Orville took his turn piloting, and flew an even more amazing 852 feet!Though their flights on that historic day were short - the longest was under a minute - the Wright Brothers had achieved something phenomenal. They had unlocked the secret of powered flight and invented the world's first successful airplane! The whole world was amazed when news of their accomplishment spread.Over the next few years, Wilbur and Orville kept making improvements to their designs. They built sturdier planes that could fly higher and stay aloft much longer. Their flying exhibitions across America and Europe helped prove that their Flying Machine was not just a lucky fluke, but a true scientific breakthrough. The Age of Aviation had begun!The Wright Brothers became world-famous inventors and heroes. But they remained humble, hardworking guys from small-town America who followed their curiosity and persevered until they achieved their wildest dream. Wilbur sadly passed away from illness in 1912, but Orville lived until 1948, long enough to witness airplanes becoming a practical way for people to travel all over the world.So the next time you're on an airplane, cruising high above the clouds, remember the daring Wright Brothers and their remarkable Flying Machine that first took to the skies on that cold December morning in 1903. Their story shows that with hard work, ingenuity, and perseverance, you can make the impossible possible and turn even your most far-fetched dreams into reality!篇5The Wright Brothers and Their Flying MachineMy name is Jamie and I'm going to tell you all about the Wright Brothers and how they became the first people to fly an airplane! Isn't that so cool?Wilbur and Orville Wright were two brothers who lived in Dayton, Ohio at the end of the 1800s. They owned a little bike shop where they fixed bicycles and made their own too. But their big dream was to build a flying machine!Ever since they were little kids, Wilbur and Orville had been fascinated by the idea of flying. They loved watching birds soar through the sky and dreamed of being able to fly just like them one day. Their favorite toy was a little helicopter-like gadget their dad brought home. It was made of cork, bamboo, and paper, and the boys would throw it into the air and watch it whirl around before fluttering back down.When they were older, the Wright brothers read everything they could find about flying and aeronautics. There weren't many books or scientific studies on it back then, but they learned what they could. They realized that many earlier experiments with flying machines had failed because the pilots didn't understand the basic principles of aerodynamics and flight control.Wilbur and Orville decided they would study birds and learn how they were able to soar and glide through the air so effortlessly. They began experimenting with different wing shapes and angles to generate lift. The brothers built lots of different kite and glider models to test out their theories. Some failed, but they kept learning from their mistakes.In 1899, Wilbur wrote a famous letter to the Smithsonian Institution asking for any information and publications they had on flight. They sent him everything they could find, and this knowledge helped guide the Wright brothers' research tremendously.Using a wind tunnel they had built themselves, the brothers systematically tested over 200 different wing shapes and angles at various wind speeds. After two years of wind tunnel tests, they had discovered the ideal shape and angle to generate enough lift for an airplane to take off! They were so excited to finally understand what allowed birds and airplanes to defy gravity.With this key principle of aerodynamics solved, the Wright brothers built their first full-sized glider in 1902. They went to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina to test it because the wind conditions there were perfect. The glider flew beautifully! But they still hadone big problem – how could they control the aircraft and keep it stable while in flight?Back home, Wilbur lay in a simple bicycle shop window and watched the tiny crossed strings that attached the window sashes move in the wind. He realized this could be the answer to controlling and steering the airplane! Using this idea, they designed a new steering system for roll, pitch and yaw control that twisted and warped the wings.By 1903, the Wright Flyer was ready for its first attempt at powered flight. It had a lightweight 12 horsepower gasoline engine to drive two huge wooden propellers. On December 14th, the wind at Kitty Hawk was blowing perfectly for an attempt. After a few false starts, at 10:35am, Orville climbed into the pilot's seat and signaled to Wilbur. Wilbur ran alongside holding a wing, and when the plane reached takeoff speed, he let go. The Wright Flyer lifted off and stayed aloft for 12 seconds, flying 120 feet!Orville and Wilbur took turns making a total of four flights that morning, with Wilbur's flight lasting an incredible 59 seconds over a distance of 852 feet. They had done it - the Wright brothers were the first to achieve powered, sustained,controlled flight! Their dreams of unlocking the secret of flight had finally come true.After returning home as heroes, the Wright brothers continued perfecting their designs. They made their first long flight of over half an hour in 1905. In 1908, they travelled to France and made countless public demonstration flights that amazed crowds across Europe. Soon, countries all over the world were trying to build better airplanes for passenger travel and war.The amazing airplane the Wright brothers built paved the way for the development of aviation as we know it today. People can now easily travel to anywhere in the world by plane in just a matter of hours. We can even explore outer space! All of this。

devastating
adj. causing a lot of damage and destruction He received devastating injures in the accident. It will be a devastating blow to the local people if the factory closes.
The United States responded to the attacks by launching the War on Terror, invading Afghanistan to depose(废除) the Taliban, who had harbored(庇护) al-Qaeda terrorists, and enacting the USA PATRIOT Act(美国爱国者法案). Many other countries also strengthened their antiterrorism legislation and expanded law enforcement powers(执法力量).

Jets Hijacked by Terrorists Destroy Twin Towers, Hit Pentagon Hijackers smashed jetliners into each of New York’s World Trade Center towers yesterday, bringing down both in a hellish storm of ash, glass, smoke and leaping victims, while a third jetliner crashed into the Pentagon in Virginia.
The attacks seemed carefully planned. The hijacked planes were all on the way to California, and therefore filled with fuel, and their departures were spaced within an hour and 40 minutes.
The first, American Airlines Flight 11, a Boeing 767 out of Boston for Los Angeles, crashed into the north tower at 8:48 a.m. Eighteen minutes later, United Airlines Flight 175, also headed from Boston to Los Angeles, plowed into the south tower.
Then an American Boeing 757 left Washington’s Dulls International Airport bound for Los Angeles, but instead hit the western part of the Pentagon, the military headquarters where 24,000 people worked, at 9:40 a.m. …
It could become the day that changed America. Perhaps when the casualty numbers finally come in, some terrible record will have been set. The immediate choices are for President Bush and his security team. This is his first and possibly biggest test. Some act of military revenge is almost unavoidable. Then there will be the inquiries into how this huge, well-planned lpot escaped unnoticed. Security will become even more ever-present. But then there are another series of questions. From the President downwards, officials have been quick to stress that is is in fact business as usual.
