中英對(duì)照

178 The projecting engineer

178 突出的工程師

There was a promising young engineer who was proficient in the use of the projector.

有一位很有前途的年輕工程師能夠非常熟練地使用放映機(jī)。

The primary use of his projector was to proliferate, promote, and promulgate his engineering projects.

他使用放映機(jī)的主要目的是擴(kuò)散、促進(jìn)以及傳播他的工程計(jì)劃。

As a projectionist, his proficiency was profound.

作為一個(gè)幻燈放映員，在業(yè)務(wù)方面他有很深的造詣。

He could use profiles, prolonged figures, projecting figures, and make them all very pronounced.

他可以熟練使用側(cè)面形象、加長(zhǎng)輪廓以及突出輪廓，還可以同時(shí)使這些輪廓非常顯著。

There was a progression to his projections.

他的放映是有先后次序的。

He would begin with a profuse use of slides and progress to a progressive use of colors and shapes.

首先他會(huì)使用很多幻燈片，然后再逐步發(fā)展到進(jìn)一步使用各種顏色和形狀。

He would also use multiple projectors with which he would project images on several walls simultaneously.

他也使用多臺(tái)放映機(jī)在多面墻上同時(shí)放映。

He could also create a very dramatic effect by sequencing the projections around the room.

另外，他還在房間內(nèi)輪次使用放映機(jī)以取得非常戲劇化的效果。

He would never include anything prohibitive, such as pornography, as it would result in his boss prohibiting him from using the projector again.

他放映的東西中從來(lái)不包括諸如色情之類的任何明令禁止的內(nèi)容，因?yàn)橐坏┻@樣做，老板肯定將會(huì)禁止他再使用放映機(jī)。

The engineering staff at his company enjoyed these performances and looked forward to every staff meeting.

工程師所在的公司員工們都非常喜歡他所放映的東西，因此也都熱切企盼著每次員工聚會(huì)。

They would cancel appointments, break luncheon dates, forego racquet ball games anything just to attend a performance.

如果有放映，他們將會(huì)取消約會(huì)，變更午餐時(shí)間，放棄參加壁球賽…，做好一切準(zhǔn)備來(lái)觀看。

The only problem was that he was prone to prolonging the meetings.

惟一的問(wèn)題是那位工程師總是傾向于拖長(zhǎng)放映時(shí)間。

Once he gave a performance that lasted for nearly two hours.

一次他放了幾乎整整兩個(gè)小時(shí)。

His workmates were completely enthralled, and none of them complained.

但他的同事們都被深深迷住了，沒(méi)有一個(gè)人抱怨。

However, since this projector performance interfered with his workmates'work, his superiors agreed to limit his shows to one hour.

然而，放映時(shí)間太長(zhǎng)終究會(huì)干擾工作，所以上級(jí)同意他把放映時(shí)間限于一個(gè)小時(shí)。

Therefore, he was often urged by his boss to be prompt with its use.

這樣一來(lái)，老板總是催促他準(zhǔn)時(shí)完成放映。

The engineer was prominent in his field, and it was largely due to his prolific use of the projector.

這位工程師在他的領(lǐng)域出類拔萃，很大原因是由于他使用放映機(jī)的手法非常豐富。
