4 Down with DeLay!

Chapter 4 Down with DeLay! The Wright brothers hunted all over the hangar for the propeller. No luck. Yasmin and Min-Jun felt awful. "We need that propeller," said Orville. "Without it, we'll never get the Flyer off the ground!" said Wilbur. Yasmin and Min-Jun looked at each

第4章拖延下去！莱特兄弟找遍了机库寻找螺旋桨。 没有运气。雅斯敏和敏君感觉很糟糕。 “我们需要那个螺旋桨，”奥维尔说。 “没有它，我们就永远不能让飞行者离开地面！”威尔伯说。 雅斯敏和敏君互相看了看

other. There was often a moment in the Timekeepers' missions when they had to explain about DeLay without mentioning time travel. Telling people about that could change history, and that was NOT what the Timekeepers were here to do. "This is going to sound kind of strange," Min-Jun began. "Stranger than a propeller disappearing into thin air?" said Wilbur. Taking turns, Min-Jun and Yasmin

其他。在计时员的任务中，经常会有一段时间，他们不得不在没有提到时间旅行的情况下解释DeLay。 告诉人们这件事可能会改变历史，而这并不是计时员在这里要做的。 “这听起来会有点奇怪，”敏俊开始说。 “比螺旋桨消失在空气中更奇怪吗？”威尔伯说。 轮流，Min-Jun和Yasmin

explained about DeLay. "He's a troublemaker," said Yasmin. "He messes around with people's lives," said Min-Jun. "And we think he's trying to stop you from flying!" Yasmin finished. "He's the one who stole your propeller. We're sure of it!" Orville and Wilbur both looked shocked. Orville sank on to a nearby bench with his head in his hands. "This is terrible," he muttered. "Just terrible." "Maybe it's not so bad," said Min-Jun hopefully. "Can't you just make another one?" "I wish it was that simple," said Wilbur. "Each propeller is hand-carved. We put so much work into matching the

解释了延迟的原因。“他是个麻烦制造者，”亚斯明说。 “他把人们的生活搞得一团糟，”敏俊说。 “我们认为他是想阻止你飞行！”娅斯敏结束。 “就是他偷了你的螺旋桨。 我们很确定！”奥维尔和威伯看起来都很震惊。 奥维尔双手抱头坐在附近的长凳上。 “这太可怕了。”他咕哝着。 “糟糕。”“也许没那么糟，”敏俊满怀希望地说。 “你不能再做一个吗？”“我希望事情能这么简单，”威伯说。 “每个螺旋桨都是手工雕刻的。 我们花了很多精力来匹配

propellers so that the power was evenly distributed. We've carved, and polished, and carved, and polished, and measured, and carved some more. Making sure that our two propellers matched was the hardest thing we've ever done."

螺旋桨使动力均匀分布。 我们雕刻，抛光，雕刻，抛光，测量，再雕刻。 确保我们的两个螺旋桨匹配是我们做过的最难的事情。”

"We aren't even sure we have the science right," said Orville sadly. "We're still testing. But we really hoped we'd nailed it this time. We'll never be able to replicate that propeller again." "And after the failure earlier today, this is the last straw," said Wilbur. He sank down on the bench beside his brother. "Our dream of flying is over. We might as well go back to Ohio and help Katherine sell our bicycles." Yasmin wanted to yell with frustration. DeLay had stopped the Wrights from conducting the most important experiment in the history of powered flight! Without the success of the Flyer, the world of aviation would never develop. There would be no air show in

“我们甚至不确定我们的科学是正确的，”奥维尔悲伤地说。 “我们还在测试中。但我们真的希望这次能成功。 我们再也无法复制那个螺旋桨了。” “在今天早些时候的失败之后，这是最后一根稻草，”威尔伯说。 他在他兄弟旁边的长凳上坐了下来。 “我们的飞行梦结束了。 我们还不如回到俄亥俄州，帮凯瑟琳卖掉我们的自行车。” 雅斯敏沮丧得想大喊大叫。 延误使莱特夫妇无法进行动力飞行史上最重要的实验！没有飞行者的成功，航空界就永远不会发展。 不会有飞行表演

Karachi. No flight simulator for Yasmin to explore her own dreams of flying. It was a disaster. They had to stop DeLay and find that propeller! "You search the rest of the hangar," Yasmin suggested to Orville and Wilbur. "We'll take a look on the beach." Yasmin and Min-Jun took the bicycles and pedaled back out into the bright December sunshine. The smell of the sea was rich and salty, and seagulls flew in white circles high in the sky. Tempo swooped around their heads in a worried kind of way.

卡拉奇。没有飞行模拟器让Yasmin探索自己的飞行梦想。 这是一场灾难。他们必须阻止迪莱，找到螺旋桨！“你们去搜索机库的其他地方。”亚斯明向奥维尔和威尔伯建议。 “我们去海滩上看看。” 雅斯敏和敏君骑上自行车，回到12月明媚的阳光下。 大海的味道浓郁而咸，海鸥在天空中盘旋着。 节奏在他们头顶盘旋，显得有些担心。
