地质学家

It is a truly grotesque vegetation, whose forms and color we see imitated in bronze, a sort of architectural foliage more ancient and typical than acanthus, chiccory, ivy, vine, or any vegetable leaves;destined perhaps, under some circumstances, to become a puzzle to future geologists.

这真是一种奇异的滋育，它们的形态和颜色，或者我们从青铜器上看到过模仿，这种建筑学的枝叶花簇的装饰比古代的茛苕叶，菊苣，常春藤，或其他的植物叶更古，更典型；也许，在某种情形之下，会使得将来的地质学家百思不得其解了。

Calcite and aragonite are the two crystal forms of calcium carbonate, a property of minerals geologists call dimorphism.

方解石和文石是两个晶体形式的碳酸钙，财产的矿物地质学家呼吁二重性。

Just as the expert in photomicrography amuses himself with diatoms, or the zoologist with insects, shells, and birds of gorgeous plumage, the bibliophile takes pleasure in reading the newest book or monograph that is "highly important and thought-provoking" but that no one else can seem to find a copy of.

如果他是地质学家的话，他会完完全全沉醉在岩石的切片里，把这些岩石的切片放到偏极光显微镜下面，就可以看到各式各样的颜色，变化万千。如果他是细菌学家，那他就会很高兴地收集产生各种颜色的细菌，甚至产生磷光的菌。

Geologists may specialize in the following fields: coal geology, environmental geology, geochronology, geomorphology or surficial geology, geotechnics, hydrogeology, marine geology, mineral deposits or mining, mineralogy, paleontology, petroleum geology, petrology, sedimentology, stratigraphy or biostratigraphy, structural geology or tectonics, volcanology or in other fields.

地质学家可能会专注于以下领域：煤炭地质，环境地质，地质年代学，地貌或地表地质，岩土工程，水文，海洋地质，矿藏或采矿，矿物学，古生物学，石油地质学，岩石学，沉积学，地层学或生物地层，结构地质或构造，火山或其他领域。

He welcomed the distinguished elderly naturalist and geologist Heinrich Georg Bronn, but the German translation published in 1860 imposed Bronn's own ideas, adding controversial themes that Darwin had deliberately omitted.

他愉快地接纳了著名的老博物学家和地质学家海因里希·格奥·布伦；但是，于1860出版的德文译本强加了布伦自己的想法，增加了达尔文曾故意忽略的、有争议的主题。

Geologists adapted catastrophism to show repeated worldwide annihilation and creation of new fixed species adapted to a changed environment, initially identifying the most recent catastrophe as the biblical flood.

地质学家改编了灾变说，以说明重复的全球毁灭是如何发生，创造的新的固定物种是如何适应变化了的环境，并初步确定最近的灾难是圣经中描写的洪水。

Geologists can tell a chalcedony from the arrangement and structure of its crystals

地质学家可以告诉关于玉髓从布局和结构它的晶体。

He drew up a geological map containing all information he could gain during his field investigations, such as outcrops of limestone and of cherty material ("chert formation"), overburden, dip and strike of strata, etc.

该地质学家绘制了一份地质图，图中包含其在实地考察期间收集的所有信息，例如石灰石和石英质的突岩层、覆岩层、地层倾向和走向等。

In fact ,polls taken of geologists in the late 1960's showed that eighty percent of them agreed with the basic idea of "continental drift".

事实上，六十年代后期，在地质学家中间曾进行这一次民意测验，结果表明，有百分之八十的地质学家同意"大陆漂移"这一基本概念。

Often a sample is obtained with a coring bit. It cuts a clean cylinder of rock, from

地质学家需要知道钻头已以到达什么样的岩层，因此时常要用芯钻头取样。

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。

The relationship between communicative competence and grammar teaching should be that of the ends and the means.

交际能力和语法的关系应该是目标与途径的关系。
