<< review queue entry 68500 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> /to lie down on a bed/ LA GF ----------------------------- /implantation/ M LA 「從胚胎著床之日起，委託人（精卵的主人）即是父母」 "From the day of implantation of the embryo, the mandators (the owners of the sperm and ovum) are the parents." 然而高齡孕產的困難度及危險性，卻遠超乎淑惠想像，雖然她很快就自然受孕，但欣喜的心情維持不到兩個月，才剛成形的胚胎，就在無預警的大量出血下流產。「醫生說是因為我的卵子品質不佳，所以即使成功受孕、著床，也無法留住寶寶。」 Yet the difficulties and dangers of giving birth at that late age were far beyond what Shuhui had imagined. Although she quickly and naturally became pregnant, her joy didn't last more than two months, as she had a miscarriage. "The doctor said that the egg that had become impregnated wasn't of high quality, so that there was no chance it could grow into a child." 夏季是蝙蝠的求偶季節，台灣東亞家蝠在九月交配，但雌蝠往往不受孕，而將精子儲存在子宮，度過寒冬。尤其在溫帶地區的雌蝠，有如「精子銀行」，以延遲受精、延遲著床、或延遲胚胎發育等方法，度過冬眠期。研究人員認為，它們延長孕期到大地回春的理由，是此時食物較豐盛，更利於哺育幼兒。 Summer is the mating season for bats, and the Taiwanese Pipistrelle family of bats mates in September. This often does not result in pregnancy, however, because the female can store sperm in her ovaries until winter has passed. This is especially the case with bats in temperate zones, where methods such as delayed sperm reception, ovulation or slow fetal growth enable the females to hibernate. Researchers say that such prolonged pregnancies ensure that the young are born in spring, when there is plenty of food about. With every country striving to establish animal gene banks, this ability of the bat to control the source of life has become the object of research second only to its sonar system. ------------------------------- /(of an oyster larva) to attach to a substrate/ 此外，為台灣賺進不少外匯的鰻魚苗與,仔魚減產、牡蠣延後著床、近海最主要的漁獲鯖、]魚群的消失，漁民皆認為與暖冬有關。 Apart from this, in recent years production of elvers and anchovies, previously important foreign exchange earners for Taiwan, has fallen, seed oysters have set late, and the shoals of mackerel and jack that formerly provided the largest catches in inshore waters have disappeared. Fishermen have connected all these phenomena with warm winters. "When oysters reproduce, they spawn tiny larvae that freely navigate the water column until they find an appropriate habitat with a structure to settle on. Once the larvae permanently attach to a surface, they are known as spat." "If the larva is unhappy with the location, it starts swimming again until it finds a suitable place to settle. The second stage in the process involves the larva attaching itself definitively to its chosen substrate, where it will grow into a spat and, ultimately, an oyster." ---------------------------- /(fig.) to take root/to become established/ TP ~ 很可惜，現在的孩子由於生長環境不斷搬遷，加上和老一輩的語言隔閡，使得對土地的愛在童年時期無法著床。 Unfortunately, today's children are constantly moving while they are growing up and speak a different language than their elders. As a result, they don't have a chance to develop a love of their birthplace during their childhood. 然而，在首都台北，另有一股藝文勢力正在都市空間變革過程中滋長，它們趁著更新基地拆除重建前的空檔著床，大膽揮灑創意之餘，也扣問著藝術實踐與都市發展的關連。 But urban Taipei is seeing a different kind of cultural movement take shape in urban spaces undergoing transformation. Participants are using derelict buildings in areas slated for renewal to express their immense creativity and to link the making of art to urban development. |
