The captain knew that another attempt would be made later, for the sunken ship he was trying to find had been carrying a precious cargo of gold bullion.

船长知道日后还会再作尝试，因为他试图寻找的沉船上载有一批珍贵的金条。

This method should not be used if alternations in the fit of the garment must be made later.

You can still make late -bound calls to such a generic type as long as the COM object implements the IDispatch interface.

For a long time, software professionals tried to do all they could to make late changes impossible or very expensive.

很长时期以来，软件专业人员竭尽全力地避免或减少做出后期更改。

The more properties you expose, the greater the chance for reuse and the fewer changes you need to make later.

公开的属性越多，重用的机会就越大，并且以后需要做出的更改就越少。

Consumers made late payments on 4. 75% of all bank-card accounts.

对于布什总统,以色列总理奥尔默特以及巴勒斯坦总统阿马斯来说，星期二在美国马里兰州安纳波利斯举行的巴勒斯坦建国会谈无异于一场集体赌博。

在缺乏可以公之于众的、以其为一个巴勒斯坦国建国之基的目标的前提下，各位领导人所欲达成的目标分别如下：

布什：针对阿拉伯联盟的施压，也即敦促其在卸任前14个月内，将解决巴以冲突的决心坚持到底，布什至少算是部分地有所主动回应。如此一来，布什就可以巩固阿拉伯世界对他奉行于此地区的政策的支持态度，特别是对其针对本地区的非阿拉伯国家伊朗及它的利益集团和联盟采取的孤立政策的支持态度，这些势力包括在6月份攫取了加沙地带控制权的哈马斯。

即使是斡旋成一部分的巴勒斯坦建国协议，也可能会给布什在有关占领伊拉克一事的经年累月的论战后所获的遗产添砖加瓦，如果日后达不成协议，布什至少可以把内阁促成的这一议案当作一次努力尝试，自然，这是后话。

By the late 1970s, cities were beginning to have difficulties with their modern treatment systems. Sludge incinerators began to be recognized as major polluters, and many were shut down. Ocan dumping of sewage sludge, used by major cities such as New York, began to backfire. The sludge, unbroken by the sea, had deadened large areas of the bays and harbors and fouled the fishing banks. Under pressure from the environmental movement and fishing interests, Congress passed the Ocean Dumping Act, whi...

从20世纪70年代末起，城市现代污水处理系统开始出现难题。淤泥焚化炉开始被当作主要污染源而致使很多家都被关闭。主要城市如纽约向大海倾倒污水污泥，开始产生适得其反的效果。大海不能降解的淤泥使得大面积的海湾和港口失去生命力，并污染了浅水渔场。在环保运动和保护渔业利益的压力下，国会通过了海洋倾废法，规定到1992年将禁止该行为。

到1981年，里根环保局认识到，必须采取其他可行方式替代海洋倾倒和废物焚烧，并联合联邦的污水处理工程协会，制定了计划向社会推出利用土地处理污水污泥。该联合会换了一个完全无伤大雅的名称：水环境联合会。他们举办了一次竞赛，为污水污泥更换一个更雅的称号，获奖的名称是“生物固体”成了污水污泥新的商品名称，并用于公关活动从而改变人们对污物的理解。

海洋倾废法生效后，就有公司等待着将城市“生物固体”转换成为“有效的土壤改良剂和天然肥料”。计划五花八门：有堆肥、热干燥和造粒等，还有直接使用原污泥改良土壤等计划。

1992年，美国环境保护局通过了清洁水法修正案的503条款（或第530部分），来规范淤泥改良土壤的应用。并成立了由一名科学家负责领导的委员会，他还是

Geography and climateJiangsu is very flat and low-lying, with plains covering 68 percent of its total area (water covers another 18 percent), and most of the province not more than fifty meters above sea level. Jiangsu is also laced with a well-developed irrigation system, which earned it (especially the southern half) the moniker of land of water(水乡); the southern city of Suzhou is so crisscrossed with canals that it has been dubbed “Venice of the East”.

地理和气候
江苏省地势低平，绝大部分地区在海拔50米以下，平原占全省总面积的68％（水域占全省总面积的18％）。江苏省（特别是南部地区）江河湖泊众多，灌溉系统极其发达，素有“水乡”之称。南部城市苏州，城内河流交错，拥有“东方威尼斯”的美誉。京杭大运河自北向南贯穿全省，横贯东西流向所有水系。长江（中国第一大河）从该省南部穿过，流入中国东海。江苏省还濒临黄海。连云港市附近的云台山是江苏省最高峰，海拔625米。江苏省的大型湖泊有太湖（全省最大）、洪泽湖，高邮湖、骆马湖和阳澄湖。
淮河是中国内陆的主要河流，也是中国南方和北方的天然分界线。历史上，黄河和淮河没有交汇点。淮河穿越江苏省北部注入黄海，而黄河则向北直接注入渤海湾。可是自1194年起经过多次北流改道后，黄河在江苏北部与淮河交汇，通过淮河注入大海。由于黄河水带来的淤泥沉积，公元1885年黄河与淮河最后一次交汇之后，淮河也被迫改道，向南经大...

对于中国政府拒绝三艘美国军舰进入香港，两名美国高级海军官员周四表示了忧虑。这三艘军舰中还包括两艘为躲避即将到来的暴风雨而寻求燃料补给和避难的军舰。
美国海军最高将领、海军军令部长罗夫海德(Gary Roughead)和美国太平洋军区总司令基亭(Timothy J. Keating)都说，中国政府和军方对此事件均没有说明。
本月，“爱国者”和“守卫者”两艘相对小的扫雷艇在太平洋航行时遭遇强风暴袭击，要求进入香港补给燃料并寻求避港。这一要求被中国政府拒绝。

海军官员说，中国拒绝给这两艘扫雷艇提供帮助，不符合“当船只在海上航行遇到危险时，所有的国家都应该提供援助”的历史原则。
“作为一个经常在海上航行的人，你迟早会发现这样一个原则：你有责任和义务向确实需要帮助的人提供帮助。罗夫海德将军在上午的五角大楼圆桌记者采访会上说。

Or your car?If you are over 60, it may just be a normal part of aging, U.S. researchers said on Wednesday in a study that suggests brain structures deteriorate with age in otherwise healthy people.The study, published in the journal Neuron, is part of an effort by researchers at Harvard University to understand the difference between normal, age-related declines and clinical impairment.“We’re trying to understand the edge of that boundary betwe...

是不是经常找不到钥匙或者汽车？
如果你已年过60，上述情况只是年老的正常反映。周三，美国研究人员声称，既使是健康人的大脑，其功能也会随着年纪增加而逐渐退化。
哈佛大学的研究人员正在努力研究人类正常衰老退化和疾病损害之间的区别，这一发布在《神经学杂志》上的研究成果只是这项研究的一部分。
“我们正在研究人类自然衰老和老年痴呆症之间的区别”，参与这项研究的哈佛大学教授兼霍华德•休（Howard Hughes）医疗机构的研究人员瑞迪•巴克纳（Randy Buckner）说。
Buckner及其同事对55位60岁（含）以上的老人和38位35岁（含）以下的年轻人进行脑部扫描，并运用 “PET”成像技术来检测与老年痴呆症密切相关的淀粉质的存在，其目的是为了区分出由疾病引起的记忆力衰退。
他们发现随着年龄的增加，人脑的协调性也随之降低。“这一研究表明正常的人类衰老和老年痴...

天津市历史变迁
现在的天津市是由历史上多条河流在渤海湾流入大海时沉积而成的.其中的黄河便是在这里入海的.
隋朝开凿大运河之后，天津便快速发展起来。到了13世纪的元朝，天津已经是全国的交通和商业中心。
以前天津被称为直沽,直到1404年才由永乐皇帝改名为“天津”, 意为“天子渡河的地方”。这是因为从侄子手中夺取皇帝宝座的时候，永乐皇帝确实从天津渡河。后来，永乐皇帝在天津建城驻垒,设立“天津卫”，意为“保卫天津”。

由于位于拱卫满清王朝的军事重地，天津的作用从18世纪末期显得更加突出，它频繁成为西方列强军事攻击的目标。第二次鸦片战争期间（1856—1860），英法联军曾占领天津。1858年满清政府与西方列强签订《天津条约》，被迫开放11个通商口岸；1860年的《北京条约》增开天津为商埠。此后，天津迅速发展起来。
八国联军入侵中国期间,天津遭受了巨大的战争创伤，并沦为国际租界。英国...

The local dialect is mutually unintelligible with Mandarin, and is an inseparable part of the Shanghainese identity.

语言
上海的官方语言是普通话，可是大多数上海人讲属于吴语分支的上海话。上海话和普通话区别很大，上海话已经成为区分上海人必不可少的特征之一。如今的上海话是个大杂烩，它混合了苏州地区的标准吴语，宁波方言以及20世纪以来移民到上海的附近地区居民的方言。

几乎40岁以下的上海人都能说一口流利的普通话。而外语水平参差不齐，大多数文革前上过大学的老一代居民以及曾经在外企工作过的人都会说英语。而那些26岁以下的上海人从小学就开始接触英语，因为从小学一年级开始，英语就是一门必修课。

艺术

凇江派和华亭派
松江派是明代的小画派，通常被认为是由苏州（当时的文化中心）的吴派或吴门派进一步发展而来。华亭派是明朝中晚期的另一个重要艺术流派，它的主要成就是中国传统画，书法和诗歌，尤其以人文画著称。

在清朝乃至整个20世纪，海派一直是一个非常重要的中国传统艺术派别。 ...

However, dialects in the southwest, near the border with Henan and Shaanxi, are classified as part of the Zhongyuan Mandarin subdivision of the Mandarin group rather than Jin. In terms of characteristics, Jin dialects are generally distinguished by their retention of the entering tone from Middle Chinese. In this respect they are unique in all of northern China, as most of the surrounding Mandarin dia...

山西人多讲晋语,但是靠近河南和陕西交界处的西南地区的山西人则讲中原官话。虽然晋语和中原官话都是汉语方言的分支，但晋语的最重要特征是有入声，这和中原官话很不相同。而且，在所有的北方方言中，除了晋语保留入声之外，其他北方方言已经没了入声。（华中和华南的一些汉语方言还保留着入声）。晋语还以纷繁复杂的连续变调著称。
山西菜肴的典型特色是“酸”，其面食也闻名天下。太原头脑是起源于太原的一种汤食，也是一种特制的药膳，系由羊肉、山药、莲藕、黄芪、葱及其他提味的汤水等配制而成。食客在喝头脑的时候，可以佐食一种未经发酵的面饼。
山西的地方戏晋剧，是一种梆子剧，又称中路梆子。梆子剧是几种戏剧形式的总称，其典型特征是使用梆子伴奏演唱，唱腔慷慨激昂、高亢健壮。晚清时期，晋商广泛活跃在历史舞台上，在他们的大力帮助下，晋剧达到兴盛。在长期的历史发展中，晋剧也吸收了曲子（南方戏剧形式的统称，以旋律优美多变著...

Literature as a new category was then a specialization of the area formerly categorized as rhetoric and grammar: a specialization to reading and, in the material context of the development of printing, to the printed word and especially the book. It was eventually to become a more general category than poetry or the earlier poesy, which had been general terms for imaginative composition, but which in relation to the development of literature became predominantly specialized, from the seventeenth...

作为一个新种类，文学曾归于修辞和语法的专门领域：是针对印刷术发展背景下的阅读，针对印刷字体特别是印刷书籍的专门领域。它最终成为比诗歌或早期诗体更普遍的种类，后两者曾是虚构作品的基本成分，但自十七世纪始，在与文学共同发展过程中，它们高度专业化，成为韵律作品特别是书写和印刷的韵律作品。可是文学根本不是主动性作品---即“符号”---这个诗歌所形容的词。因阅读多于写作，它属于不同类型。其典型作用正如培根所写---“精通文学，博学多才，品格高尚，仁慈善良”---晚至后来的约翰逊写到---“他的儿子在其最优美的拉丁诗之一中评价说，他大概不仅仅精通普通的文学。”如此说来，文学是属于应用和条件之类，而非创作。迄今为止它被看作一种行为和实践的专门领域，在其社会环境中，不可避免的打上社会阶级的烙印。其首要意思的扩展，已不仅仅表示文字能力，而是“优雅或仁慈，博学”，进而代表一种优越的社会地位。在用“古典”语言...
