They found Mary, as usual, deep in the study of thorough bass and human nature; and had some new extracts to admire, and some new observations of threadbare morality to listen to.

她们发觉曼丽还象以往一样，在埋头研究和声以及人性的问题，她拿出了一些新的札记给她们欣赏，又发表一些对旧道德的新见解给她们听。

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: By combining information from genetic and acoustic research, the scientists aim to understand a lot more about the whales and their behavior to find practical solutions to the challenges facing these New York Ocean giants.

通过结基因和声研究的信息，家们的目标是更多地了解鲸鱼及其行，以找到切实可行的解决方案，来应对这些纽约海洋巨兽所面临的挑战。

It's called the ecosystem and passive acoustic monitoring project.

该项目被称“生态系统和被动声监测项目”。

It requires a proactive approach to thinking about how buildings and people exist in harmony with each other, and how you make noise and acoustics, an integral part of that thinking.

这需要一种积极的思考方式，考虑建筑物和人如何和谐共存，以及如何将噪音和声这种思考的一个重要部分。

The researchers also found that participants' brain activity tracked the acoustic features of the music, like tempo and pitch, far more closely when it was played live.

研究人员还发现，受试者的大脑活动追踪音乐的节奏和音调等声特征，在现场播放时要紧密得多。

Be that as it may, its unique call offers a special opportunity to study the behavior of a single whale in an acoustic and non-invasive way.

尽管如此，它独特的叫声提供了一个特殊的机会，以声和非侵入性的方式研究一头鲸鱼的行。

The team analyzed each of the recordings using computer software built for bioacoustic research and conservation work.

使用用于生物声研究和环保的计算机软件，团队分析了各个录音。

Instead, the decision to approve a building or not  is based on other factors like fire resistance, structural safety and quality of acoustics, and meeting those requirements is not easy.

相反，是否批准建筑物的决定是基于其他因素，如耐火性、结构安全和声质量， 而满足这些要求并不容易。

The array was a hose, about 600 metres long, that contained hydrophones and non-acoustic sensors which was towed behind the submarine and could detect and identify ships and submarines at great distances.

这种阵列是一条约600米长的软管，内部装有水听器和非声传感器， 拖曳于潜艇后方， 能够远距离探测并识别舰船和潜艇。

And I say you, SIGHTED people, have not developed your brain to actually understand the world and beauty of acoustic images.

而我要说的是，你们这些有视力的人的大脑还没有发育到能够真正理解世界和声图像之美的程度。

We speak not very well to people who simply aren't listening in an environment that's all about noise and bad acoustics.

我们不太适那些在充满噪音和不良声环境中不倾听的人。
