四倍

II On the way back home he saw a fire engine racing to the fire.

课文中这句话的意思是：&我们思维的速度比多数人说话的速度快四到十倍&。

Such birds pose no problem: cockpit windows neither crack nor glaze if hit by a standard four-pound bird, and the aircraft's tail—one of the most critical parts of the aircraft for maintaining control—is designed to withstand twice the normal impact.

这样的鸟不能引起麻烦：如果被一般的四磅重的鸟撞击，那么驾驶舱的窗子和玻璃都不会破裂，而且飞机的尾部被设计得禁得住两倍的正面撞击。

Our price target is based on 1.6x our forward four-quarter book value estimate.

我们给出的目标股价，基于我们对未来四个季度预估账面价值的1.6倍。

Just like their predecessors on the 90nm core, the new Pentium D processors feature a locked clock frequency multiplier.

就像他们的前辈的90nm核心的新奔腾四处理器专题锁定时钟倍频。

When we had fir'd our second Volley of our Fusees, we thought they stopp'd a little, and hop'd they would have gone off; but it was but a Moment; for others came forward again; so we fir'd two Volleys of our Pistols, and I believe in these four Firings, we had kill'd seventeen or eighteen of them, and lam'd twice as many; yet they came on again.

这样，我们一共放了四排枪。我相信，至少打死了十七、八只狼，打伤的大约多一倍。可是，它们还是蜂拥而来。我不愿匆匆放完最后一排枪，就叫来了自己的仆人。我没有叫星期五，而是叫了我新雇的那个水手。星期五有更重要的任务要完成。

On the top500.org list of the world's fastest computers, the bottom-ranked machine has a performance of 851 gigaflops.

这个星期讨论的原型细胞芯片的主频将高达256G，比现在最快的桌面台式机性能高出十倍左右，因此细胞芯片被广泛地称为&芯片上的超级计算机&，这么说有点夸张，但不算过分，在top500.org世界最快计算机名单上，最慢的计算机的性能是851G，由仅仅四个细胞芯片构成的计算机的性能将轻易超过这台机器。

The prototype Cell being discussed this week runs at 256 gigaflops (a flop—one "floating-point" operation per second—is a measure of how fast a processor can perform the individual operations of digital arithmetic that all computing ultimately boils down to). A speed of 256 gigaflops is around ten times the performance of the chips found in the fastest desktop PCs today; the Cell is thus widely referred to as a "supercomputer on a chip", which is an exaggeration, but not much of one. On the top500.org list of the world's fastest computers, the bottom-ranked machine has a performance of 851 gigaflops. A machine based on only four Cell chips would easily outrank this.

If we double it, we can provide mentors for 1.4 million of them. Applause.

如果我们把它增加一倍，我们能向他们中的一百四十万个提供监护人。

Many southern areas are important production area for tomato. From July to September, it's the season for San Marzano tomato. This tomato of four to five fingers' thickness is most suitable for passata.

南部是蕃茄的重要产区，之所以在夏天制作番茄糊，主要是因为七月到九月是圣马尔札诺番茄的盛产期，这种果实瘦长、如成人手指四至五倍粗的番茄品种，最适合拿来制作番茄糊。

Mitsubishi did not release figures related to either the car's acceleration, top speed, or quarter-mile times.

三菱没有公布有关的数字无论是汽车的加速，最高车速，或四分之一英里倍。

It seems likely that Kraft will return with a better offer.

看起来卡夫要重新考虑一个更好的出价了。

But he'd rather burn off my feelers and watch me squirm.

可他却放任那个家伙对我为所欲为！
