小惑星衝突

The original post was taken down with the explanation that NASA has now confirmed that the story is false. One can only hope that with a proclamation of the end of the world, CNN wouldn’t wait for NASA to “confirm” that it’s wrong. A spokeswoman for NASA-JPL said the story ran for hours after she informed CNN that the there was no 10-mile asteroid headed for Earth, at least as far as NASA knows. Before they pulled the post, Keith Cowing of NASA Watch captured a screenshot showing the CNN logo and a headline, “Giant Asteroid Possibly on Collision Course with Earth.” Here’s a bit from Cowing’s screen grab: The asteroid is calculated to have a potentially lethal encounter with the Earth on March 35, 2041. Astronomers have placed the odds of an impact at 1 in 2.04, which is by far the most unprecedented risk ever faced to humanity, let alone from asteroids. The grammar is wonky. The style suggests the writer might be lampooning overblown science writing. The message is clear enough. It’s not a nice thing to contemplate the first day back at work after a three-day holiday weekend, but the good news is that it looks like the only impact story here is the fact that the cable news network has slammed the Earth with an enormous bolide of B.S. The post is from iReports, which is apparently an experiment in citizen journalism. CNN lets random people with no qualifications post stories under the CNN banner. The asteroid scare illustrates the hazard of this approach. Apparently ireporters don’t need to reveal their names. The asteroid report’s author has called himself, or herself, Marcus575. The story says the giant asteroid was spotted by a project called the Near-Earth Object Wide Field Infrared Survey Explorer (NEOWISE), which really exists. The date for the lethal encounter is March 25, 35, 2041. According to Seth Borenstein, who tipped off the Tracker, the alarming post was up for 22 hours. By that time, he noted, it had had more than 200000 visits and 22000 shares. Helping boost the hits were tags: gaming, stocks, science, cyrus, beiber, Obama. If you Google CNN and asteroid you will find dozens of people have already reposted the “news” with comments and some concern. I emailed Keith Cowing to find if there was any NASA announcement that might have been misinterpreted or distorted. Apparently not. “As for what happened: (my guess) long weekend combined with lax review standards,” he said. That's lax standards at CNN, that is. It looks like a prank. Marcus575 put some thought into making it read like a real news story, if not a particularly well written one. And like most hoaxes, there’s a lesson in it. CNN has not responded to a request for comment. The Tracker would also welcome comments from Marcus575. 翻訳してください

Posting asli diturunkan dengan penjelasan bahwa NASA kini telah mengkonfirmasi bahwa cerita ini adalah palsu. Kita hanya bisa berharap bahwa dengan proklamasi akhir dunia, CNN tidak akan menunggu NASA untuk "mengkonfirmasi" bahwa itu salah. Seorang juru bicara untuk NASA JPL-kata cerita berlari selama berjam-jam setelah dia memberitahu CNN bahwa ada yang tidak ada asteroid 10 mil menuju Bumi, setidaknya sejauh NASA tahu. Sebelum mereka menarik pos, Keith cowing NASA Perhiasan menangkap screenshot yang menunjukkan logo CNN dan judul, "Raksasa Asteroid Mungkin pada Collision Course dengan Bumi." Berikut adalah sedikit dari cowing itu layar ambil: Asteroid dihitung untuk memiliki pertemuan yang berpotensi mematikan dengan Bumi pada tanggal 35, 2041. Para astronom telah menempatkan kemungkinan dampak pada 1 di 2.04, yang sejauh ini merupakan risiko yang paling belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya pernah dihadapi umat manusia, apalagi dari asteroid. Tata bahasa yang miring. Gaya menunjukkan penulis mungkin lampooning ilmu menulis berlebihan. Pesannya adalah cukup jelas. Ini bukan hal yang baik untuk merenungkan hari pertama kembali bekerja setelah tiga hari liburan akhir pekan, tetapi kabar baiknya adalah bahwa ia tampak seperti satu-satunya cerita dampak di sini adalah kenyataan bahwa jaringan berita kabel mengecam Bumi dengan besar bolide dari BS Posting adalah dari iReports, yang tampaknya percobaan dalam jurnalisme warga. CNN memungkinkan orang secara acak tanpa kualifikasi posting cerita di bawah bendera CNN. Asteroid menakut-nakuti menggambarkan bahaya dari pendekatan ini. Rupanya iReporters tidak perlu mengungkapkan nama mereka. Penulis asteroid laporan telah menyebut dirinya, atau dirinya sendiri, Marcus575. Cerita mengatakan asteroid raksasa ditemukan oleh proyek yang disebut Near-Earth Object Wide Field Infrared Survey Explorer (NEOWISE), yang benar-benar ada. Tanggal untuk pertemuan mematikan adalah 25 Maret 35, 2041. Menurut Seth Borenstein, yang memberi informasi Tracker, pos mengkhawatirkan naik selama 22 jam. Pada saat itu, katanya, telah memiliki lebih dari 200000 kunjungan dan 22000 saham. Membantu meningkatkan hits adalah tags: game, saham, ilmu pengetahuan, cyrus, beiber, Obama. Jika Anda Google CNN dan asteroid Anda akan menemukan puluhan orang telah mem-posting ulang "berita" dengan komentar dan beberapa kekhawatiran. Saya diemail Keith cowing untuk menemukan apakah ada pengumuman NASA yang mungkin telah disalahartikan atau terdistorsi. Sepertinya tidak. "Adapun apa yang terjadi: (saya duga) akhir pekan panjang yang dikombinasikan dengan ulasan standar longgar," katanya. Itu standar longgar di CNN, yaitu. Sepertinya sebuah lelucon. Marcus575 menaruh beberapa pemikiran ke membuatnya membaca seperti berita nyata, jika bukan yang sangat baik tertulis. Dan seperti kebanyakan hoax, ada pelajaran di dalamnya. CNN tidak menanggapi permintaan untuk komentar. Tracker ini juga akan menyambut komentar dari Marcus575.

     最初の発表は、NASA が現在その内容が虚偽であると確信するに至ったという説明で削除された。世界の終焉が来ると宣言した以上、CNN には、 NASA が「確信」する前に、間違いました、と言ってもらいたかった。NASA-JPLの女性報道官は、NASA の知る限り地球に向かっている10マイル(の大きさの)小惑星は無い、と CNN に通告した後も数時間にわたってこの情報は流された、と言う。    この情報を削除する前に、 NASA Watch のキース•カウイング(Keith Cowing)は、 CNN のロゴと「巨大小惑星が地球と衝突の怖れのある軌道にある」という見出しを目撃している。     カウイングの見たのは、     この小惑星は、2041年3月35日、地球と重大な結果をもたらす可能性のある衝突の軌道にあると計算され、天文学者たちは小惑星は言うに及ばず、人類が直面する過去最大の危険に瀕する確率が2.04対1である、と考えてる。     この文法はおかしい。この文体は、著者が、誇張された科学論文をあざ笑っているようだ。      この意図するところは明確である。三日続いた連休のあと、仕事に戻った第一日は楽しくはない、いい知らせは、ここで衝突の後が見えるのは、ケーブル通信網が、物凄いほら話に地球を衝突させたと言う事実のようだ。      話の元は、民間新聞学の実験の  iReports である。CNN は、自社のものとして、全然無資格の誰にでも情報を出させる。小惑星危惧騒ぎは、このやり方の危なさを露呈している。     どうやら  iReports に寄稿する者は実名を公表する必要が無いらしい。小惑星記事の作者はMarcus575 と名乗っている。巨大な小惑星を発見者したのはthe Near-Earth Object Wide Field Infrared Survey Explorer (NEOWISE)というプロジェクトだと言う、これは実在する。衝突の日は2041年3月35日である。     トラッカーに通報したセス•ボレンシュタインは、この警告記事は22時間にわたって掲載されていたと言う。この間、このサイトを訪れたのは20万件、シェアは2万2千件であった。このヒット数は、ゲーム、株、科学、キュロス(メーる網)、ビーバー(ファンたち)、オバマ、等によって拡大した。小惑星とググれば、既に何十人かが、コメントや心配だと書き加えてこの「ニュース」を再拡散しているのに気づくだろう。     私はキース•カウイングにメールして NASA の発表に、解釈を誤ったり歪曲したりする可能性があるか聞いてみた。そういう可能性は無いらしい。「何が起こったか(ここは私の想像だが)長い連休と、大雑把な調査基準のためだ」と彼は言う。大雑把な基準とは CNN での話である。     これは、いたずらのようだ、特別によく書けているとは言えないにしても、Marcus575 は、本物のニュースのように見せる努力はしている。    そして殆どの偽物がそうであるように、(学ぶべき)教訓がある。 CNN は、コメントしてほしいと言う要請に応えなかった、トラッカーは、 Marcus575 からのコメントも歓迎する。.

  • 小惑星が2041年3月に衝突

    If astronomers are right, all life on this planet could be extinguished in less than 30 years. Scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have detected a large object the size of Manhattan possibl y on a collision course with Earth. Using their Near-Earth Object Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (NEOWISE), the 10-mile wide object was found approximately 51 million miles from Earth. Scientists believe that during a close encounter with Mars, the asteroid was nudged slightly off its usual orbit and may currently be on a high speed collision course with our fragile planet. The asteroid is calculated to have a potentially lethal encounter with the Earth on March 35, 2041. Astronomers have placed the odds of an impact at 1 in 2.04, which is by far the most unprecedented risk ever faced to humanity, let alone from asteroids. Such an impact could potentially end civilization as we know it. More information will be posted here as the story develops... 翻訳してください

    So, why is this story so important to Americans? First of all, the story is about the challenge and excitement of a child disobeying a parent`s command, and destroying something treasured by that parent. Moreover, this act of youthful rebellion is committed by George Washington, the "Father of His Country." In this sense, the act is a symbolic one. The child disobeying and defying his father can be seen to represent the young America breaking with the older authority of Europe and, in particular, the English King. The second reason that this story is important to Americans reflects another symbolic meaning of cutting down a tree: the act of civilizing the wilderness. On their arrival in the New York, the trees had to be cut, the great forests leveled, in order to make civilized land out of the wilderness: to clear the land for planting crops; to build cabins; to get fuel for warmth and cooking; and to make fences for protection. Thus the tree-cutting hatchet is the essential tool for ( 1 ). Lastly, while the story of George Washington describes the act of a young revolutionary, it is significant to Americans that this act is done innocently and honestly. "Run to my arms, you dearest boy," cries his father, and with this sign of love the Revolution is given the approval of the parent. In this way, the story fulfills the wish of every rebellious child: that the gesture of independence will be respected, and that the child will be able to enjoy its act of rebellion without losing ( 2 ). ・(1)に入る3語の語句を同じ段階から抜き出してください。 ・(2)に入る適切なものを選んでください。 (1)its father`s love (2)its social relationships (3)its independence (4)its pride

    以下の文の日本語訳をお願いしたいです。英語力に乏しく困っています……。 The year 2014 ranks as Earth’s warmest since 1880, according to two separate analyses by NASA and National O ceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientists. The 10 warmest years in the instrumental record, with the exception of 1998, have now occurred since 2000. This trend continues a long-term warming of the planet, according to an analysis of surface temperature measurements by scientists at NASA’s Goddard Institute of Space Studies (GISS) in New York. In an independent analysis of the raw data, also released Friday, NOAA scientists also found 2014 to be the warmest on record. “NASA is at the forefront of the scientific investigation of the dynamics of the Earth’s climate on a global scale,” said John Grunsfeld, associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington. “The observed long-term warming trend and the ranking of 2014 as the warmest year on record reinforces the importance for NASA to study Earth as a complete system, and particularly to understand the role and impacts of human activity.”Since 1880, Earth’s average surface temperature has warmed by about 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius), a trend that is largely driven by the increase in carbon dioxide and other human emissions into the planet’s atmosphere. The majority of that warming has occurred in the past three decades.“This is the latest in a series of warm years, in a series of warm decades. While the ranking of individual years can be affected by chaotic weather patterns, the long-term trends are attributable to drivers of climate change that right now are dominated by human emissions of greenhouse gases,” said GISS Director Gavin Schmidt.While 2014 temperatures continue the planet’s long-term warming trend, scientists still expect to see year-to-year fluctuations in average global temperature caused by phenomena such as El Niño or La Niña.These phenomena warm or cool the tropical Pacific and are thought to have played a role in the flattening of the long-term warming trend over the past 15 years. However, 2014’s record warmth occurred during an El Niño-neutral year. “NOAA provides decision makers with timely and trusted science-based information about our changing world,” said Richard Spinrad, NOAA chief scientist. “As we monitor changes in our climate, demand for the environmental intelligence NOAA provides is only growing. It's critical that we continue to work with our partners, like NASA, to observe these changes and to provide the information communities need to build resiliency.” Regional differences in temperature are more strongly affected by weather dynamics than the global mean. For example, in the U.S. in 2014, parts of the Midwest and East Coast were unusually cool, while Alaska and three western states – California, Arizona and Nevada – experienced their warmest year on record, according to NOAA. The GISS analysis incorporates surface temperature measurements from 6,300 weather stations, ship- and buoy-based observations of sea surface temperatures, and temperature measurements from Antarctic research stations. This raw data is analyzed using an algorithm that takes into account the varied spacing of temperature stations around the globe and urban heating effects that could skew the calculation. The result is an estimate of the global average temperature difference from a baseline period of 1951 to 1980. NOAA scientists used much of the same raw temperature data, but a different baseline period. They also employ their own methods to estimate global temperatures. GISS is a NASA laboratory managed by the Earth Sciences Division of the agency’s Goddard Space Flight Center, in Greenbelt, Maryland. The laboratory is affiliated with Columbia University’s Earth Institute and School of Engineering and Applied Science in New York.

    The second story “Girl” was more interesting to me. The story is like family motto from her mother to girl. This story imply that girl’s mother really love her children with extravagance. I can find her mother’s love, worry and many more feeling to her daughter. I like this story because this story has more adorable feelings. I believe that “white elephant” is more difficult than “Girl”, because that story is mostly consisted of conversation between them, however, that conversation makes me confused. It is not clear for me. The girl was mad first time, but she easily come back to good mood the end of the story. I wanted to see the process how she came back to good mood. I believe that “Girl” is not a real story. I guess that this story is talking about future’s children. In my opinion, the girls’ mother wants to have a girl baby in her future, so she is talking about how her children want to grow up when she have a girl baby,

    For a long time many people thought that learning to read was like learning to understand a spoken language- that it was a netural process. For example, it was thought that most children would learn to read naturally if they were in an environment with lots of books and were allowed to develop reading skills in their own way. The idea that reading is a natural process is quite common among educators, but actually learning to read is as difficult as learning to juggle while riding a unicycle backwards. The truth is that learning to read is one of the most unnatural things anyone can do. 長くなって申し訳ありませんが、上の英文の和訳を教えてください(>_<)
