AZUZ: Around the world, without a drop of gasoline. That's the goal of the experimental plane, Solar Impulse 2. It runs on solar power. It landed in California on Saturday night after taking off from Hawaii on Thursday. Though it's got the wing span of a 747, it only weighs as much as an SUV. But it also travels at about the same speed as a car, which is why it took so long to make California from Oahu.

阿祖兹：环游世界，但是不用一滴油。这是实验型飞机阳光动力2号的目标。这架飞机由太阳能提供动力。它周四从夏威夷起飞，周六晚上降落在加利福尼亚。虽然它的翼展达到了波音747的水平，但是它的重量只有一辆SUV车那么重。当然，这架飞机的速度也和汽车的速度一样，所以它用了这么长时间才从瓦胡岛飞到加州。

The project whose cost is estimated at more than $100 million has had its setbacks. It took off last spring and was supposed to have circumnavigated the globe last summer, but a damaging storm, battery problems and the need for near perfect flying conditions have repeated delayed the journey.

这个耗资超过1亿美元的项目遭遇了挫折。这架飞机去年春天起飞，计划在去年夏天完成全球航行，但是由于遭遇严重风暴、电池出现问题以及对近乎完美飞行条件的需求，导致其行程不断拖延。

Engineers are happy to have the project back up and running.

工程师对这个项目能恢复运作感到很高兴。

AZUZ: A little over 20 years ago, in the grocery store parking lot of North Carolina, an insurance worker named Harry 1 Swimmer met a girl with a condition Cerebral 2 Palsy. She was also deaf and unable to speak. And Swimmer had the idea that she might enjoy a pony 3 ride at his farm.

阿祖兹：20多年前，保险公司员工哈里·斯维默在北卡罗来纳州一家食杂店的停车场遇到了一个患有脑瘫的小女孩。而且她耳聋，也不能说话。斯维默突然有了个想法，这个小女孩可能会喜欢在他的农场里骑马。

Her positive reaction to the experience inspired Swimmer to become a certified 4 instructor 5 in therapeutic 6 riding and he's today's "Character Study".

她骑马时呈现出来的积极反应促使斯维默成为了一名治疗性骑马注册教练，他就是今天“人物研究”版块的主人公。
