3. Confederation Bridge
Engineers faces several environmental challenges when building this bridge.. freezing temperatures, heavy ice, snow.. you name it.
- 기술자들은 다리를 지을 때 몇몇 환경적 난제에 맞딱드렸습니다. 영하의 기온, 많은 양의 얼음, 눈.. 그밖의 모든 것 들을요.
It took quite a while to build this bridge.
- 이 다리를 짓는데 시간이 꽤 걸렸다.
It is frigid temperature.
- 그것은 혹한의 추위다.
The sheer scope of this project sets it apart from other cold-weather bridges.
- 프로젝트의 순수한 크기로만 봐도 다른 추운 기후를 가진 다리들과는 차별된다.
This causes problems because, you know, a bridge must be anchored to the seabed.
- 이것은 문제가 되는데, 알다시피 다리는 해저에 고정되어야 한다.
How can the construction workers plant the support columns of a bridge into the bottom of the strait if it's completely frozen through?
- 해협이 완전하게 얼어있다면, 어떻게 기술자들이 다리의 기둥을 바닥에 설치할 수 있었을까요?
This is dangerous enough as it is, even when there's not a bridge traversing the water.
- 물을 가로지르는 다리가 없다고 하더라도, 그 자체만으로도 위험하다.
They designed conical ice shields to sit at water level on all of the piers.
- 그들은 콘모양의 방패를 모든 교각의 수면높이에 설치하였다.
The forces imparted by the ice to be partially deflected away from the bridge itself.
- 얼음에 의해 다리 자체에 가해진 충격은 부분적으로 분산된다.
This can cause lots of stress for the piers supporting the bridge because of the forces exerted by the water expanding as it freezes.
- 물이 얼음에 따라서 그 힘이 중폭되었으므로, 이는 다리를 지탱하고있는 교각에 많은 부하를 준다.
They make it so that the piers don't feel the entire brunt of the ice impact.
- 그들은 그것을 만들어서 교각들이 얼음에 의한 충격을 정면으로 받지 않도록 한다.
Over one hundred thaw-freeze cycles
- 백번이 넘는 녹고 어는 사이클
Their hand will glance off.
- 그들의 손은 빗나갈 것이다.
you name it: Everything you can think of
quite a while: 꽤 오랬동안
frigid: Frigid means extremely cold.
sheer: You can use sheer to emphasize that a state or situation is complete and does not involve or is not mixed with anything else.
anchor: An anchor is a heavy hooked object that is dropped from a boat into the water at the end of a chain in order to make the boat stay in one place.
strait: You can refer to a narrow strip of sea which joins two large areas of sea as a strait or the straits.
traverse: If someone or something traverses an area of land or water, they go across it.
conical: A conical object is shaped like a cone.
piers: A pier is a platform sticking out into water, usually the sea, which people walk along or use when getting onto or off boats.
impart: If you impart information to people, you tell it to them.
deflect: If you deflect something such as criticism or attention, you act in a way that prevents it from being directed towards you or affecting you.
brunt: To bear the brunt or take the brunt of something unpleasant means to suffer the main part or force of it.
thaw: When ice, snow, or something else that is frozen thaws, it melts.
exert: If someone or something exerts influence, authority, or pressure, they use it in a strong or determinedway, especially in order to produce a particular effect.
glance off: if a ball, etc. glances off something, it touches it lightly and moves away from it in a different direction
4. Work in France
I don't think teaching is really my cup of tea.
- 가르치는건 저에게 맞는일이 아닌거 같아요.
They both resided in France.
- 그들은 둘다 프랑스에 살았었다.
not be somebody's cup of tea: not be the kind of person, thing or activity that you like
reside: If someone resides somewhere, they live there or are staying there.
