我不仅长得帅，也很有钱。
她不仅长得美，而且性格乐观。
这道数学题不仅可以这样做，还有更多的计算方法呢。
玫瑰花不仅花儿美丽，它还有药用价值呢。

Hoc pulcherrimum carmen vobis lego hodie cum prosodia latina. 

Ecce textus:
Cum tu, Lydia, Telephi
cervicem roseam, cerea Telephi
laudas bracchia, vae meum
fervens difficili bile tumet iecur.
tum nec mens mihi nec color
certa sede manet, umor
et in genas furtim labitur, arguens,
quam lentis penitus macerer ignibus.
uror, seu tibi candidos
turparunt umeros inmodicae mero
rixae, sive puer furens
inpressit memorem dente labris notam.
non, si me satis audias,
speres perpetuum dulcia barbare
laedentem oscula, quae Venus
quinta parte sui nectaris imbuit.
felices ter et amplius
quos inrupta tenet copula nec malis
divolsus querimoniis
suprema citius solvet amor die.

Отрывок из романа Булгакова “Мастер и Маргарита” (диктант)

第二个行星上住着一个爱虚荣的人。
The second planet was inhabited by a conceited man.
喔唷！一个崇拜我的人来拜访了！
Ah! Ah! I am about to receive a visit from an admirer!
这个爱虚荣的人一见到小王子，老远就叫喊起来。
he exclaimed from afar, when he first saw the little prince coming.
在那些爱虚荣的人眼里，别人都成了他们的崇拜者。
For, to conceited men, all other men are admirers.
“你好！”小王子说道。“你的帽子很奇怪。”
"Good morning," said the little prince. "That is a queer hat you are wearing."
“这是为了向人致意用的。”爱虚荣的人回答道，“当人们向我欢呼的时候，我就用帽子向他们致意。”
"It is a hat for salutes," the conceited man replied. "It is to raise in salute when people acclaim me."
可惜，没有一个人经过这里。
Unfortunately, nobody at all ever passes this way.
小王子不解其意。说道：“啊？是吗？”
"Yes?" said the little prince, who did not understand what the conceited man was talking about.
爱虚荣的人向小王子建议道：“你用一只手去拍另一只手。”
"Clap your hands, one against the other," the conceited man now directed him.
小王子就拍起巴掌来。
The little prince clapped his hands.
这位爱虚荣者就谦逊地举起帽子向小王子致意。
The conceited man raised his hat in a modest salute.
小王子心想：“这比访问那位国王有趣。”
"This is more entertaining than the visit to the king," the little prince said to himself.
于是他又拍起巴掌来。
And he began again to clap his hands, one against the other.
爱虚荣者又举起帽子来向他致意。

The conceited man against raised his hat in salute.
小王子这样做了五分钟，之后对这种单调的把戏有点厌倦了，
After five minutes of this exercise the little prince grew tired of the game's monotony.
说道：“要想叫你的帽子掉下来，该怎么做呢？”
"And what should one do to make the hat come down?" he asked.
可这回爱虚荣者听不进他的话，
But the conceited man did not hear him.
因为凡是爱虚荣的人只听得进赞美的话。
Conceited people never hear anything but praise.
他问小王子道：“你真的钦佩我吗？”
"Do you really admire me very much?" he demanded of the little prince.
“钦佩”是什么意思？
What does that mean– 'admire'?
钦佩么，就是承认我是星球上最美的人，服饰最好的人，最富有的人，最聪明的人。
To admire mean that you regard me as the handsomest, the best-dressed, the richest, and the most intelligent man on this planet.
可您是您的星球上唯一的人呀！
让我高兴吧，请你还是来钦佩我吧！
小王子轻轻地耸了耸肩膀，说道：“我钦佩你，可是，这有什么能使你这样感兴趣的？”
于是小王子就走开了。
小王子在路上自言自语地说了一句：“这些大人，肯定是十分古怪的。”

小王子第27章：爱慕虚荣

At a Hollywood studio this October, Tesla unveiled its long-awaited robotaxi, though fans of the electric vehicle maker will have to wait until at least 2026 before it is available.

CEO Elon Musk pulled up to a stage in one of the company's "Cybercabs," telling the crowd that the AI-powered vehicles don't have steering wheels or pedals.

He also expressed confidence in the progress the company has made on autonomous driving technology that makes it possible for vehicles to drive without human intervention.

Tesla began selling the software, which is called "Full Self-Driving," nine years ago. But there are doubts about its reliability.

"We'll move from supervised Full Self-Driving to unsupervised Full Self-Driving, where you can fall asleep and wake up at your destination," he said.

Tesla expects the Cybercabs to cost under $30,000, Musk said. He estimated that the vehicles would become available "before 2027."

The company also expects to make the Full Self-Driving technology available on its popular Model 3 and Model Y vehicles in Texas and California next year.

However, shares of Tesla Inc fell not long after the unveiling — investors don't see a clear timeline for the rollout of the Cybercabs, while other companies are already using similar technology.

"Tesla yet again claimed it is a year or two away from actual automated driving — just as the company has been claiming for a decade," Bryant Walker Smith, a University of South Carolina law professor who studies automated vehicles, told The Associated Press.

Tesla's announcement comes as US safety regulators are investigating Full Self-Driving and Autopilot based on evidence that it has a weak system for making sure human drivers pay attention.

Last April near Seattle, a Tesla using Full Self-Driving hit and killed a motorcyclist, authorities said. The Tesla driver told authorities that he was using the system while looking at his phone when the car hit the motorcyclist from behind.
