XIV. TRANSLATION.

English into Chinese.

(SMITH PRIZE.)

Time: See preceding paper. (100 marks.)

"At night, after the sun has set, the surface of the earth sends back into the air a great deal of the heat it had received during the day, and consequently then becomes much colder than the air. It thus cools the air resting on it, and causes it to part with some of its moisture and deposit it on the ground; because when air is cold it can hold less moisture than when warm. The watery drops thus gathered on the ground in clear nights are called by the name of dew. Dew serves to moisten the soil in seasons of dryness; when neither clouds nor rain can be formed. It is deposited more abundantly on clear nights than on cloudy ones, because the earth then sends off its heat more freely towards the sky. It has been calculated that enough dew settles on the ground in England during the course of one year to cover its entire surface five inches deep with water, if none of it was again removed from the place on which it fell.”
