The Wright brothers; the first successful airplane; 1903.

萊特兄弟、首架成功飛行的飛機、1903 年。

基礎被動語態

Wilbur Wright was born on April 16th, 1867, in Millville, Indiana, and Orville Wright was born on August 19th, 1871, in Dayton, Ohio.

威爾伯·萊特 1867 年 4 月 16 日出生於印第安納州的米爾維爾，而奧維爾·萊特於則是 1871 年 8 月 19 日在俄亥俄州代頓市出生。

Both brothers were pioneers credited with inventing the first airplane.

這對兄弟被譽為發明首架飛機的先驅者。

In late 1901, the Wright brothers had gathered the aerodynamic data they needed to build a successful flying machine.

1901 年末，萊特兄弟收集了成功製造飛行器所需的空氣動力學數據。

And in 1902, the Wright brothers had built their latest glider based on this data.

而在 1902 年，萊特兄弟已經根據這些數據建造了他們最新的滑翔機。

They had identified a wing shape that was efficient, producing the expected lift and engineered controls that were responsive.

他們已經確定一個能有效產生預期升力的機翼形狀，並設計了反應靈敏的控制裝置。

The glider would also use a trailing rudder for yaw, therefore enabling the Wright brothers to navigate in the air in all three dimensions.

滑翔機也將使用尾舵進行偏航，因此讓萊特兄弟能夠在空中進行三維導航。

Following this success, the next stage for the brothers was powered flight.

在這次成功之後，這對兄弟的下一階段是動力飛行。

No manufacturers could provide an engine light enough and powerful enough for their needs, so the brothers had to design and build their own.

沒有製造商能提供夠輕、夠強的發動機來滿足他們的需要，所以兄弟倆不得不自己設計和建造。

The flyer was designed in a biplane configuration, with a wooden airframe and a wingspan of 12.3 meters or 40 feet 4 inches.

飛行者被設計成雙翼結構、木質機身，翼展為 12.3 米或 40 英尺 4 英寸。

The pilot flew on his stomach on the lower wing, steering by moving a cradle attached to his hips.

飛行員必須趴在下層機翼上，透過移動連接在他臀部的吊籃進行轉向。

This cradle pulled wires which warped the wings and turned the rudder.

這個吊籃會拉動導線，使機翼變形並轉動方向舵。

The Wright Flyer 1, based on the previous glider, was set up near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, in the United States of America on December 17th, 1903, where there was a hill and a good breeze.

1903 年 12 月 17 日，在先前滑翔機的基礎上，萊特飛行者一號在美國北卡羅來納州的基蒂霍克附近架設，那裡有一座小山、微風徐徐。

The first flight lasted 12 seconds, traveling 36 meters, or 120 feet, with Orville piloting.

第一次飛行持續了 12 秒，在奧維爾的駕駛下飛行了 36 米或 120 英尺遠。

Three more flights were made on that day, with Wilbur achieving the best flight, covering 255.6 meters, or 852 feet, in 59 seconds.

當天又進行了三次飛行，威爾伯在 59 秒內取得了覆蓋 255.6 米或 852 英尺的最佳飛行距離。

The Wright brothers had made history with the first successful flight of a controllable, self-propelled, heavier-than-air machine.

萊特兄弟創造了歷史，首次成功地飛行了可控制、自推進、重於空氣的機器。

Over the next few years, the Wright brothers developed new flyers while remaining secretive in an attempt to secure patents and contracts.

在接下來的幾年裡，萊特兄弟在保密狀態開發了新的飛行器，企圖取得專利和合約。
