【汉译英欣赏】
他大舅,他二舅,都是他舅！
Be he the elder uncle or the younger uncle, they’re both his uncles!
高桌子，低板凳，都是木头！
Be it a high table or a low stool, they are both made of wood!
走一步，退一步，等于没走!
One step ahead or one step aback,
one only turns his neck.
一头驴，两头牛，都是牲口!
Be it a donkey or be they two cows, they are no fowls!

Nepal: Return of the tigers brings both joy and fear - BBC News
Nepal has pulled off the extraordinary feat of more than doubling its tiger population in the past 10 years, bringing them back from the brink of extinction. But it has come at a cost to local communities - an increase in tiger attacks.
"There are two feelings when you come head to head with a tiger," says Captain Ayush Jung Bahadur Rana, part of a unit tasked with protecting the big cats.
"Oh my God, what a majestic creature. And the other is, oh my God, am I dead?"
He now often sees Bengal tigers on the armed patrols he carries out across the open plains and dense bush of Bardiya, the largest and most undisturbed national park in Nepal's Terai region.
"Being assigned to tiger protection duties is an honour. It's a privilege to be part of something that is really big," Capt Ayush says as he glances around through the thick forest.
Nepal's zero-poaching approach has worked to protect the tigers. The military units support the national park teams. And in buffer zones next to the park, community anti-poaching units monitor nature corridors that allow tigers to roam safely.
One such strip of land, the Khata corridor, links Bardiya National Park with the Katarniaghat Wildlife Sanctuary across the border in India.

飞机上看了Emanuel Derman写的《my life as a quant》，看了前面几篇，准备找出来英文版的读一读。抵达多伦多的第一餐去吃了red lobster, 满足。这两天天气非常棒，正好周末要去暗夜星空保护区拍星星，有些期待…今天中午去square one逛了一下，Mississauga这边的楼比之前多了不少，而且疯狂建设中[偷笑]
