CA: What, to power -- for lighting and stuff?
威廉:對
WK: Yeah.
克里斯:所以,為什麼呢?為了發電照明等等嗎?
CA: So what did you do? How did you realize that?
威廉:對
WK: After I dropped out of school, I went to library,
克里斯:所以你做了什麼?你怎麼體現這件事的?
and I read a book that would -- "Using Energy,"
威廉:我從學校輟學後,我就去圖書館。
and I get information about doing the mill.
我讀了一本書,是「利用能源」
And I tried, and I made it.
我獲得了建造風車的資訊
(Applause)
然後我嘗試建了
CA: So you copied -- you exactly copied the design in the book.
(掌聲)
WK: Ah, no. I just --
克里斯:所以你完全沿用書中的設計嗎?
CA: What happened?
威廉:阿,不,我只是...
WK: In fact, a design of the windmill that was in the book,
克里斯:怎麼了?
it has got four -- ah -- three blades,
威廉:事實上,在書中的風車磨坊設計中
and mine has got four blades.
有四個,呃...三個葉片
CA: The book had three, yours had four.
我的有四片
WK: Yeah.
克里斯:書中的有三片,你的有四片
CA: And you made it out of what?
威廉:對
WK: I made four blades, just because I want to increase power.
克里斯:那你是用什麼建造而成的呢?
CA: OK.
威廉:我作四個葉片,因為我想要增加力量
WK: Yeah.
克里斯:OK
CA: You tested three, and found that four worked better?
威廉:嗯
WK: Yeah. I test.
克里斯:你測了三片後,發現四片比較好嗎?
CA: And what did you make the windmill out of?
威廉:對,我測試了。
What materials did you use?
克里斯:那你是用什麼建成風車的呢?
WK: I use a bicycle frame, and a pulley, and plastic pipe, what then pulls --
是用,你用的是什麼樣的建材。
CA: Do we have a picture of that? Can we have the next slide?
威廉:我用了一台腳踏車的車架,一台滑車、還有塑膠管,用來拉...
WK: Yeah. The windmill.
克里斯:你有風車的照片嗎?我們可以換下一張嗎?
CA: And so, and that windmill, what -- it worked?
威廉:對,風車。
WK: When the wind blows, it rotates and generates.
克里斯:所以,風車有奏效嗎?
CA: How much electricity?
威廉:當風吹時,會旋轉並產生
WK: 12 watts.
克里斯:多少電力
CA: And so, that lit a light for the house? How many lights?
威廉:十二瓦
WK: Four bulbs and two radios.
克里斯:所以,用來點亮家中的燈嗎?點亮了幾盞?
CA: Wow.

to pump water and irrigation for crops.
威廉:對,我想要再建另一座
CA: So this one would have to be bigger?
用來汲水與灌溉,灌溉穀物
WK: Yeah.
克里斯:所以這台會大得多嗎?
CA: How big?
威廉:對
WK: I think it will produce more than 20 the watts.
克里斯:多大?
CA: So that would produce irrigation for the entire village?
威廉:我想會產生超過二十瓦的電力
WK: Yeah.
