Sherri HarrahHOST
They don't necessarily want to be planted in the full blaring sun, although you could have success with the right expectations.
Sherri HarrahHOST
But in your area, John, a Japanese maple would be ideal.
Sherri HarrahHOST
Now, when you plant a Japanese maple here in the Gulf Coast, you've got to make sure and add good compost.
Sherri HarrahHOST
They like a good fungal component to their soil.
Sherri HarrahHOST
So like the Nature's Way leaf mold compost is a must when you're planting your Japanese maples here on the Gulf Coast.
Sherri HarrahHOST
And you would want to do an acidifying fertilizer like the Microlife Acidified and a nice layer of mulch.
Sherri HarrahHOST

[音效]科技动动脑，出口成行家。欢迎收听今天的Tech Talk Now科技关键字节目，我是Eddie。[音效]不要怀疑哦，刚刚飞过你耳畔的不是蜜蜂，而是一个小小的飞行机器人。它像蚊子一般小，却能够飞进田野，飞进森林，飞进灾区。这个设计的灵感来自昆虫，它是人类能够派出的小小的飞行小尖兵。Small wings, big missions.今天让我们一起来认识可以承担重大任务的这个小小的翅膀。Insect-like drones昆虫型无人机。让我们一起来收听今天的科技新闻精华。

[音效]News in Tech Terms.[音效]Tiny insect-like drones are taking flight, monitoring crops, watching the environments, and even helping in disaster rescue.小小的昆虫型无人机正在起飞，能监测农作物、环境变化，甚至支援灾难救援任务。Inspired by bees and mosquitoes, scientists have built micro flying robots that flap their wings like real bugs, perfect for fields, forests, and hard-to-reach places.灵感来自蜜蜂与蚊子，科学家打造出能拍动翅膀的微型飞行机器人，特别适合飞行于田间、林地或人难以抵达的地方。[音效]
EddieHOST
Tech keyword我们今天的关键字是insect-like drones, insect-like drones这个字呢，我们也分成两个部分来认识。首先是insect-like, insect I-N-S-E-C-T, tiny animals with six legs,有六只脚的小型的动物，我们翻译成昆虫，像蜜蜂、蚊子这一类有六只脚的小型生物。那蜘蛛就不算哦，因为蜘蛛不只有六只脚，而是节肢动物。而insect-like，这个like L-I-K-E在这里是类似、像的意思，insect-like就是像昆虫的，类似昆虫的。第二个字drone，D-R-O-N-E，就是飞鹰robot with camera eye，没有驾驶员，配有影像功能的飞行装置，我们翻译为无人机。因此两个部分合起来，insect-like drones就是像昆虫一样的无人机，昆虫型无人机。我们一起来练习这个字。What was that flying over the field? A bug or a bot?哇哦，那个飞过田里的是什么呀？是昆虫还是机器呢？
speaker_3NARRATOR

speaker_3NARRATOR
Flies like a bug, spies like a robot.
