functions

go way back !! ???

This difference in newline handling between the two functions goes way back in the evolution of the UNIX System.

这两个函数的对于行理新行符的差慬在于，这两个函数 goes way back 在Unix系统的进行历程中。
我不知道这个go way back是什么意思啊～

5.7. Line-at-a-Time I/O

Line-at-a-time input is provided by the following two functions.

[View full width]

#include

char *fgets(char *restrict buf, int n, FILE
*restrict fp);

char *gets(char *buf);


Both return: buf if OK, NULL on end of file or error

Both specify the address of the buffer to read the line into. The gets function reads from standard input, whereas fgets reads from the specified stream.

With fgets, we have to specify the size of the buffer, n. This function reads up through and including the next newline, but no more than n1 characters, into the buffer. The buffer is terminated with a null byte. If the line, including the terminating newline, is longer than n1, only a partial line is returned, but the buffer is always null terminated. Another call to fgets will read what follows on the line.

The gets function should never be used. The problem is that it doesn't allow the caller to specify the buffer size. This allows the buffer to overflow, if the line is longer than the buffer, writing over whatever happens to follow the buffer in memory. For a description of how this flaw was used as part of the Internet worm of 1988, see the June 1989 issue (vol. 32, no. 6) of Communications of the ACM . An additional difference with gets is that it doesn't store the newline in the buffer, as does fgets.

This difference in newline handling between the two functions goes way back in the evolution of the UNIX System. Even the Version 7 manual (1979) states "gets deletes a newline, fgets keeps it, all in the name of backward compatibility."

Even though ISO C requires an implementation to provide gets, use fgets instead.

Line-at-a-time output is provided by fputs and puts.

[View full width]

#include

int fputs(const char *restrict str, FILE *restrict
fp);

int puts(const char *str);


Both return: non-negative value if OK, EOF on error

The function fputs writes the null-terminated string to the specified stream. The null byte at the end is not written. Note that this need not be line-at-a-time output, since the string need not contain a newline as the last non-null character. Usually, this is the casethe last non-null character is a newlinebut it's not required.

The puts function writes the null-terminated string to the standard output, without writing the null byte. But puts then writes a newline character to the standard output.

The puts function is not unsafe, like its counterpart gets. Nevertheless, we'll avoid using it, to prevent having to remember whether it appends a newline. If we always use fgets and fputs, we know that we always have to deal with the newline character at the end of each line.

一个明孝陵咋有三种英文名

王银泉告诉记者，把“风景区”译成“美人痣”属于根据中文望字翻译的中式英语，翻译者没有尊重英语的用词和语法习惯，这类错误不止一处。比如火车站出口处 就有一块路牌把“公厕向前150米”译成了“150 meters in front of wc”。“且不说‘WC’这个词现在已不提倡当作公厕的译名使用，就这句翻译本身来说，会让人误解成‘公厕前150米处’。”王银泉解释，“in front of”指的是“在……的前面”，而在这里，用“before”更适合些。

英文单词“丢三落四”让人看不明白

“international”是“国际”的意思，那么“intemational”指的是什么？在地铁新街口站“1、13、14、15”出口处一块标有“天都国际商城”的路牌上，学生们发现了这个奇怪的单词，记者翻遍字典，也没找到这个词。

According to a report released by China Internet Network Information (CNNIC) yesterday, China's Internet users totaled 162 million in the first six months of this year. The country reported 137 million users last year.

The rapid growth could be translated into almost 100 new users per minute in the past six months.

At this rate of increase, China is expected to overtake the United States, the world's leader, by the end of next year. The US had 211 million Internet users at the end of last month.

中国互联网络信息中心昨天发布的一份报告显示，今年上半年，中国的网民总数达到1.62亿人。去年这一数字为1.37亿。

在过去六个月中，中国网民的数量以每分钟近一百人的速度激增。

按照这一增速，中国有望于明年年底超过美国，成为全世界网民规模最大的国家。截至上月底，美国的网民数量达到2.11亿人。

双语新闻：我国工资涨幅达12%？！

Salary increases not in step with rising cost of living: Survey
[ 2007-07-11 17:02 ] (Source: China Daily)
http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/language_tips/2007-07/11/content_5433074.htm

A recent survey conducted by the China Youth Daily showed that 85 percent of those interviewed said their salary increases were less than the country's average annual growth rate: 12 percent, according to National Statistics Bureau.
《中国青年报》最近开展的一项全国性调查显示，85%的受访者认为我国工资的增幅低于国家统计局统计的工资年平均增长率12%。

Figures show the country is going through its fastest-ever period of growth since it began opening up 30 years ago.
统计数据显示，目前我国正处于改革开放30年以来发展最快的阶段。

The annual wages of an average worker rose from 12,422 yuan in 2002 to 21,001 yuan in 2006, the survey said.
调查显示，一名普通工人的年薪从2002年的12422元涨至2006年的21001元。

Going against the trend, 7 percent of those polled said their salaries had fallen over the four-year period.
另有7%的受访者称他们的工资水平在这四年内不涨反跌。

Of the 1,604 people interviewed, 64 percent said their salary rises could not match the economic development.
在1604名受访者中，64%的人认为他们的工资涨幅与经济发展不相称。

"My colleagues and I all questioned the 12 percent increase. It's just not real," Zhang, a software engineer with a leading IT company in Beijing, said.
北京一家著名IT公司的软件工程师张先生说：“我和同事对这12%的工资增幅感到很疑惑，觉得这个数据并不真实。”

"Most of us get a pay rise of about 400 yuan a year. Some haven't had a rise for two years."
“我们大多数人的工资都是一年涨400元。有些人的工资甚至两年都不涨。”

Zhang said his pay rises were nothing compared to the rising prices of consumer goods.
他说，他涨的工资与不断上涨的物价相比几乎算不得什么。

In terms of who or what contributes most to the average growth of annual salaries, the survey showed that 50 percent people pointed to monopoly industries, 41 percent to companies' management teams, and 8.1 percent to ordinary employees. According to the China Economic Times, in 2005, some 8 percent of the country's workforce, most employed by major State-owned companies, earned 55 percent of the total salaries.
调查显示，50%的受访者认为垄断行业对年平均工资涨幅的拉动最大，41%的人认为是公司的管理层，8.1%的人认为是普通员工。据《中国经济时报》，2005年，我国大约8%的劳动者挣的工资占全国工资总额的55%，其中大多数人是国企员工。

The remaining 92 percent must be those who said their salaries didn't rise.
剩下的92%应该是那些称工资未涨的人。

没有看到中文版，但可以推断是先有中文然后翻译过来的，所以也属于“译文纠错”范围。

These organizations have become increasingly aggressive in their sales and monitoring efforts in recent years. Their goal is to obtain either expensive company-wide “blanket” licenses for their copyrighted materials or, failing that, information related to possible copyright infringement activities. They are not above using scare tactics, including threats of office raids and litigation, to obtain these results.

这些机构，近年以来在销售及跟踪监控上变得越来越具备侵略性.他们的目的，是针对他们的版权材料获得昂贵的全公司范围内的“概括授权”，如果不这样，信息就有可能涉及到版权侵犯行为。他们不会使用恐吓策略，包括对办公室的威胁以及提起法律诉讼，来获得上述“概括授权”。
