Now observe well these strange filaments on its abdomen.

现在好好看看它腹部奇怪。

That clear, perpetual outline of face and limb is but an image of ours, under which we group them a design in a web, the actual threads of which pass out beyond it.

人类那轮廓分明、长久不变容颜和肢体，不过是一种表象，在那框架之下，我们把种种元素凝聚在一张网里，那织网网中穿出，又引向其他地方。

Right, next up is very finely dicing, a chilli and deseeding it.

好，接下来是切辣椒，辣椒要去籽。

You don't wanna put blood to your chiffonade here.

你不想在这儿让你沾上血。

Superclusters themselves aren't just randomly distributed through the Universe either: they appear to fall along tremendously long interconnected and intersecting filaments, making the Universe appear almost foamy on the biggest scales, like a sponge.

它们似乎是沿着非常长、相互联系、相互交叉落下，使宇宙最大尺度上看几乎像泡沫状，就像海绵一样。

His exaggerated mustache, long and straight and tapering to a point at either end in a single blond hair that could hardly be seen, seemed to weigh down the corners of his mouth and give a droop to his lips.

他那夸张八字胡又长又直，稀到尖上只剩下一根金黄色，得几乎叫人无法看到它末梢，这小胡子似乎压住了他嘴角，使他嘴唇耷拉下来。

Once that cloud hits the air, it expands, breaking up into snotty strings, then a series of different-sized droplets all trapped in a turbulent gas cloud.

云状物进入空气之后，它就开始扩大，分裂状，接着变不同尺寸小液滴，全都包含在一个骚动气团中。

So what is it about the fine, stretchy stuff that comes out of a spider's backside that makes it such a manufacturing challenge?

所以，为什么这种蜘蛛屁股里出来精巧而有弹性，制造起来这么困难？

Lastly, it starts from the centre of the web and fastens a slender line across the others, going round and round in a spiral.

最后, 蜘蛛蛛网中心绕上一圈又一圈, 它们构彼此交叉横。

Because these whispy little filaments can float freely in the breeze, they're great at sensing the air currents that comprise sound waves.

因为这些稀疏小能在风中自由飘动，非常善于察觉出包含声波气流。

They also extend hair-like filaments called hyphae into the soil which pump water even more efficiently than the tree's own roots.

它们还将像头发一样叫做称为菌延伸到土壤中，它比树木自身根部吸水效率更高。

The fungi's filaments, or thread-like structures, are the perfect conduit for trading food with plants— and hot goss, probably.

真菌或线状结构，是与植物交换食物完美渠道——也可能还有热苔。

Now the fungus forms these complex networks underground of fine filaments thinner than even threads of cotton.

现在真菌在地下形这些复杂网络，它们这些比棉线还。

Your cardiac muscle is also striated, and uses sliding filaments to contract, but the similarities end there.

你心肌也是条纹状，通过滑动来收缩，但是相似之处就到此为止了。

This silk is formed inside the spider's body as a gummy fluid.

这些来自其体内粘稠液体。

And this filament has at its base a couple of ion channels, which are proteins that span the membrane.

这条根部有若干个离子通道，就是一种跨越胞膜蛋白。

Out comes the spider, runs to the fly, and rolls a band of its gummy silk around it.

这时, 蜘蛛就会爬出来, 扑向苍蝇, 用粘稠将其团团围住。

So they tried different materials, different shaped filaments, and thinner connections.

因此他们尝试了不同材料、不同形状和更连接。

" Whiskers" -- I should say the hairs, strands, or something like that.

" 胡须" -- 我应该说那是毛发、或者类似东西。

The tiny strands formed of nano fibers can be five times stronger than steel.

由纳米纤维形微可以比钢强五倍。
