乌鸦

There was little to see around the ancient road except yellow sand, withered grasses and the occasional crow flying homewards.

古道无他物，除却黄沙枯草和偶尔几声乌鸦归巢。

A ragged string of wild geese passed overhead, high on the grey sky, and a few rooks whirled over the trees, inspected, and flapped off Homewards with a disgusted expression; but I met no sensible being to ask the news of.

几只乌鸦在树梢上盘旋，巡视了一遭，又带着不屑一顾的神情，拍着翅膀飞回家去了。

Withered grasses and the occasional crow flying homewards.

古道无他物，除却黄沙枯草和偶尔几声乌鸦归巢。

In fact the actual reason is because i dont go crazy with money.

其实真正的原因是乌鸦不是很爱钱啦。

Crow said it was those samples, taken as part of an industrywide study, that found their way with sampling results from other cities into the AP report.

乌鸦说，这是这些样本的，所采取的一部分，是一个全行业的研究，发现其与抽样结果，从其他城市进入美联社报导。

A JACKDAW, seeing some Doves in a cote abundantly provided with food, painted himself white and joined them in order to share their plentiful maintenance.

一只乌鸦看到鸽子在栅栏里面丰衣足食，为了也得到这些食物，于是就把自己的羽毛染白，假装是鸽子混进了鸽子群里。

Furthermore, some element of learning is often evident since younger birds do not build with sticks of quite unsuitable size, while a jackdaw's first nest includes virtually any movable object.

此外，在鸟儿不断练习种渐渐变老以后和他们年轻的时候相比较，它们筑巢的学习成分会明显的体现出来。例如年轻的乌鸦最初试图用树枝去建一个尺寸很不合适的窝，穴乌的第一个巢包含的所有东西几乎都能是松动的。

PARIS — The fashion is more Brooklyn than Paris, with young Muslims and blacks in low jeans, sunglasses and hoodies, often with a kaffiyeh knotted carefully around the neck, and sometimes, now, with guns.

巴黎，风尚流行次于纽约布鲁克林，可见到一些年轻的穆斯林教徒以及身着低等牛仔裤的黑人、太阳镜和有冠的乌鸦，也可见到阿拉伯人把头巾小心地在脖颈上打结，也有时，现在，可见到枪支。

THE ivory-billed woodpecker is not large, as birds go. It is about the size of a crow, but flashier. Its claim to fame is that, though it had been thought extinct since 1944, a lone kayaker spotted it about two years ago, flying around among the cypress trees in the Cache River National Wildlife Refuge.

象牙喙啄木鸟与普通的鸟一样，体形不是很大，跟乌鸦差不多，但羽色较亮。1944年以来人们一直以为它已经灭绝，但大约两年前，一个划着小船的独行客在凯奇河国家野生物保护区的柏树林中发现一只啄木鸟正在四处飞翔，因此，这种鸟就出了名。

The four clans of our people are: the eagle, the raven, the wolf and the killer whale. Everybody belongs to one. You are what your mother is. Everybody, you know, if your mom is a killer whale, then that's what you are.

我们族的四大宗族是鹰、乌鸦、狼、和杀人鲸，每个人都属于其中的一支，视乎母亲所属而定，如果你母亲是杀人鲸族的，那么你也是。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
