• Colorado - geography.

  Although the rivers of Colorado are navigable only by small boats, they are important as a source of irrigation water for use in Colorado and adjoining states. However,the water level of the rivers fluctuates seasonally and from year to year. The level is generally low in winter and high in spring and summer, during the runoff of meltedsnow from the mountains. Colorado has no large lakes of natural origin, but there are numerous small lakes in the mountains. The largest bodies of water in Colora...

• Japan - country.

  island’s fertile soils support agriculture and provide the vast majority of Japan’s pasturelands. In addition, Hokkaidō contains coal deposits, and the cold currents off itsshores supply cold-water fish. Winters are long and harsh, so most of Hokkaid ō is lightly settled, housing about 5 percent of Japan’s population on approximately 20 percent of its land area. However,its snowy winters and unspoiled natural beauty attract many skiers and tourists. Hokkaid ō is thought of as Japan’s northern fr...

• Arctic - Geography.

  The Arctic is not a frozen desert devoid of life on land or sea, even during the cold, dark winter months. Spring brings a phenomenal resurgence of plant and animal life.Low temperatures are not always the critical element—moisture, the type of soil, and available solar energy are also extremely important. Some animals adapt well toArctic conditions; for instance, a number of species of mammals and birds carry additional insulation, such as fat, in cold months. Arctic summers with extended dayli...

• India - country.

  delta in the north, are intensely farmed. B Rivers and Lakes The rivers of India can be divided into three groups: the great Himalayan rivers of the north, the westward-flowing rivers of central India, and the eastward-flowingrivers of the Deccan Plateau and the rest of peninsular India. Only small portions of India’s rivers are navigable because of silting and the wide seasonal variation inwater flow (due to the monsoon climate). Water transport is thus of little importance in India. Barrages,...

• Orientación espacial 1 INTRODUCCIÓN Orientación espacial, posición de un punto, lugar, objeto o persona sobre la superficie terrestre respecto a un sistema de referencia.

  En los últimos años han aparecido instrumentos y técnicas muy precisos para determinar la posición de un punto de la Tierra: informan sobre su latitud, su longitud e,incluso, su altitud. Son las redes de localización por satélite, y muchas personas las utilizan en lugar de las brújulas. El más conocido es el Sistema de Posicionamiento Global (GPS), Global Positioning System en inglés, que surgió para que las naves militares estadounidenses realizaran trayectos más seguros. Aunque en origen era...

• Gemstones.

  In the late 1960s a method was developed for “growing” diamonds by heating a diamond particle to a high temperature and subjecting it to methane gas. The gasdecomposes into carbon atoms, which adhere to the diamond crystal. The crystal structure of the enlarged diamond is identical to that of a natural diamond. Diamondsof about 1 carat (200 mg or 0.007 oz) have been produced by this method, but their cost is still considerably higher than that of naturally occurring diamonds. Sapphires are made...

• La conscience est-elle naturelle ?

  • Le raisonnementIl est un fait que chacun entend en lui-même la voix de sa conscience qui lui dicte son devoir.Quelle est la nature de cette voix ?

• belge, littérature.

  2. 4 Période romantique C’est avec la création du royaume de Belgique, en 1830, qu’une véritable littérature nationale va se former et prendre conscience d’elle-même. La dimension européenne du mouvement romantique permet aux auteurs belges de puiser leur inspiration dans la prodigieuse abondance des œuvres romantiques allemandes, françaises et anglaises. Mais, ce cosmopolitisme ne les empêche pas de se forger un fort sentiment national, qu’ils veulent d’ailleurs très présent dans leurs œuvres....

• Compositionality

  sentence construction, an operation on meanings, such that the meaning of any sentence is mechanically determined by applying the operations on meanings (given by the rules used in constructing the sentence) to the meanings of the simple parts. (Often a host of extra restrictions are incorporated. For example: the operations may be limited to applying function to argument; the order in which operations are applied may be settled by the structure of the sentence.) Some see such principles as prov...
