➽TRADUÇÃO DO TEXTO:
Turtle’s walk delays planes at Tokyo airport
Caminhada da tartaruga atrasa aviões no aeroporto de Tóquio
➽1º PARÁGRAFO:
►There are many reasons for delays at airports. Sometimes it’s
bad weather, sometimes it’s a technical problem, and other times it’s
a passenger who is late to the boarding gate. Narita Airport in
Tokyo, Japan has added a new cause of flight delays – a turtle going
for a walk. The runway at Narita had to close for 12 minutes because
a 2.1-kilogram turtle was spotted on the tarmac.
Existem muitas razões para atrasos nos aeroportos. Às vezes é mau tempo, às vezes é um problema técnico e outras vezes é um passageiro que está atrasado para o portão de embarque. O Aeroporto de Narita, em Tóquio, no Japão, adicionou uma nova causa de atrasos nos voos – uma tartaruga saindo para passear. A pista de Narita teve que fechar por 12 minutos porque uma tartaruga de 2,1 quilos foi avistada na pista.
►The pilot of an airplane waiting to take off told air traffic controllers about the small reptile at around 11:35am. There was an immediate search for it. This caused the delay of five flights. Airport staff managed to locate the creature. They safely removed it with a net. They reported that it was unharmed.
O piloto de um avião que esperava para decolar contou aos controladores de tráfego aéreo sobre o pequeno réptil por volta das 11h35. Houve uma busca imediata por ele. Isso causou o atraso de cinco voos. A equipe do aeroporto conseguiu localizar a criatura. Eles o removeram com segurança com uma rede. Eles relataram que ele estava ileso.
➽2º PARÁGRAFO:
►A Narita Airport spokesperson said she believed the turtle lived
in a nearby pond. It managed to get under a fence alongside the airport and crawl onto the runway. The turtle might have decided to
sunbathe because of the warm weather. It was a lot warmer than
usual at the airport for the time of the year. Shortly after the turtle
was caught, an A380 airplane took off from the runway. By
coincidence, the A380 was painted in a turtle design.
Um porta-voz do aeroporto de Narita disse acreditar que a tartaruga vivia em um lago próximo. Ele conseguiu passar por baixo de uma cerca ao lado do aeroporto e rastejar até a pista. A tartaruga pode ter decidido tomar sol por causa do clima quente. Estava muito mais quente do que o normal no aeroporto para aquela época do ano. Pouco depois da captura da tartaruga, um avião A380 decolou da pista. Por coincidência, o A380 foi pintado com desenho de tartaruga.
►The plane was from the Japanese airline ANA. It was going to the island of Okinawa in the south of Japan. An ANA spokesperson said: “Turtles are seen as bringing good luck. We hope this turtle, who came to see the flight off, signals a bright future.”
O avião era da companhia aérea japonesa ANA. Ia para a ilha de Okinawa, no sul do Japão. Um porta-voz da ANA disse: “As tartarugas são vistas como trazendo boa sorte. Esperamos que esta tartaruga, que veio ver o voo partir, sinalize um futuro brilhante.”

I sold my first car at 11 and earned a million by 14
Vendi meu primeiro carro aos 11 anos e ganhei um milhão aos 14
Tom Hartley Jr
➽1º PARÁGRAFO:
►All my life, I’ve been around cars.
Toda a minha vida estive perto de carros.
►Some of my earliest
memories are of being in the showroom and wacth my father close
deals for cars such as Ferraris and Lamborghinis.
Algumas das minhas primeiras lembranças são de estar no showroom e ver meu pai fechar negócios para carros como Ferraris e Lamborghinis.
►Everyone’s
good at something: I discovered my forte at an early age, and was
fortunate enough to have a father who was already in the car
business.
Todo mundo é bom em alguma coisa: descobri meu forte desde cedo e tive a sorte de ter um pai que já trabalhava no ramo automobilístico.
►I sold my first car - a Porsche convertible - at the age of 11
and by the time I was 14, I was buying and selling around three cars
a week. That was the age I became Britain’s youngest self-made
millionaire.
Vendi meu primeiro carro - um Porsche conversível - aos 11 anos e aos 14 já comprava e vendia cerca de três carros por semana. Foi nessa idade que me tornei o mais jovem milionário da Grã-Bretanha.
➽2º PARÁGRAFO:
►Sometimes people make the mistake of thinking that success
has been handed to me on a plate.
Às vezes as pessoas cometem o erro de pensar que o sucesso me foi entregue de bandeja.
►But everything I have I’ve earned
myself - and all my share of profits went into a trust fund so that at
18 I was able to buy half of the business.
Mas tudo o que tenho, eu próprio ganhei - e toda a minha parte nos lucros foi para um fundo fiduciário, de modo que, aos 18 anos, consegui comprar metade do negócio.
►I love the fact that I get
to meet different kinds of people through my work.
Adoro o fato de poder conhecer diferentes tipos de pessoas através do meu trabalho.
►One day I’ll be
dealing with the guy from the corner shop who’s buying a Mercedes
for his wife, and the next I’ll be meeting somebody famous.
Um dia estarei lidando com o cara da loja da esquina que está comprando uma Mercedes para a esposa, e no outro estarei conhecendo alguém famoso.
➽3º PARÁGRAFO:
►I have a comfortable life, but it’s not overly ostentatious.
Tenho uma vida confortável, mas não é excessivamente ostensiva.
►I
don’t have a car of my own.
Eu não tenho um carro próprio.
►When I get to work, I’ll drive whatever
car happens to be on the forecourt, and most days I’ll roll up my
sleeves and wash it too.
Quando chego ao trabalho, dirijo qualquer carro que esteja no pátio e, na maioria dos dias, arregaço as mangas e lavo-o também.
►I haven’t had a proper holiday for years and
I still live in the family home. I’m having my own house built at the
moment.
Faz anos que não tiro férias de verdade e ainda moro na casa da família. Estou construindo minha própria casa no momento.
➽4º PARÁGRAFO:
►In my opinion, natural business acumen is not something that
can be taught - it comes from the inside. There has to be an inherent
competitive streak. Good salesmen are in competition with
themselves - they’re always trying to do better and sell more.
Na minha opinião, a perspicácia natural para os negócios não é algo que possa ser ensinado - ela vem de dentro. Tem que haver uma tendência competitiva inerente. Bons vendedores competem consigo mesmos – estão sempre tentando fazer melhor e vender mais.

➽TRADUÇÃO DO TEXTO:
Giant floating robots and millennia-old odors make up a new installation at Tate Modern Museum
Robôs flutuantes gigantes e odores milenares compõem uma nova instalação no Tate Modern Museum
Aimee Dawson
➽1º PARÁGRAFO:
►Two species of intelligent robots have moved into some prime,
Thames-side real estate: Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall. Collectively
named “aerobes,” the floating orbs that the New York-based artist
Anicka Yi has created to inhabit the cavernous space are called
“planulae” and “xenojellies”.
Duas espécies de robôs inteligentes mudaram-se para um imóvel nobre do lado do Tâmisa: o Turbine Hall da Tate Modern. Chamados coletivamente de “aeróbios”, os orbes flutuantes que a artista radicada em Nova York Anicka Yi criou para habitar o espaço cavernoso são chamados de “planulae” e “xenojellies”.
➽2º PARÁGRAFO:
►Inspired by ocean life forms and mushrooms, ___ helium-filled
shapes move around using rotors and ___ small battery pack.
Together, they create ___ “ecosystem” within ___ museum, Yi said
in a press statement, interacting with their environment and visitors,
and displaying individual and group behaviors.
Inspiradas nas formas de vida oceânicas e nos cogumelos, ___ formas cheias de hélio se movem usando rotores e ___ pequenas baterias. Juntos, eles criam ___ “ecossistema” dentro do museu ___, disse Yi em um comunicado à imprensa, interagindo com o ambiente e os visitantes e exibindo comportamentos individuais e de grupo.
➽3º PARÁGRAFO:
►Behind the scenes, an incredible amount of AI technology and
research is powering this floating family. A team of specialists has
developed the aerial vehicles using software that gives each a unique
flight path. The software, called an artificial life program, generates
a huge range of journey options for the orbs to take and therefore
simulates the somewhat unpredictable processes of natural life.
Nos bastidores, uma quantidade incrível de tecnologia e pesquisa de IA está alimentando esta família flutuante. Uma equipe de especialistas desenvolveu os veículos aéreos usando um software que dá a cada um deles uma trajetória de voo única. O software, chamado de programa de vida artificial, gera uma enorme variedade de opções de viagem para os orbes e, portanto, simula os processos um tanto imprevisíveis da vida natural.
➽4º PARÁGRAFO:
►The robots will respond to the space and people around them
by receiving information from electronic sensors positioned around
the venue. The signals affect them individually and as a group so
that they will behave differently upon each encounter.
Os robôs responderão ao espaço e às pessoas ao seu redor, recebendo informações de sensores eletrônicos posicionados ao redor do local. Os sinais os afetam individualmente e como grupo, de modo que se comportarão de maneira diferente em cada encontro.
➽5º PARÁGRAFO:
►“Like a bee’s dance or an ant’s scent trail, the aerobes
communicate with each other in ways we cannot understand,” a Tate
Modern statement described.
“Como a dança de uma abelha ou o rastro do cheiro de uma formiga, os aeróbios se comunicam entre si de maneiras que não conseguimos entender”, descreveu uma declaração da Tate Modern.
➽6º PARÁGRAFO:
►Yi is also using her aerobes to question ideas around
intelligence and our focus on the brain as its main transmitter.
Yi também está usando seus aeróbios para questionar ideias sobre inteligência e nosso foco no cérebro como seu principal transmissor.
