Around The World In 80 Days by Jules Gabriel Verne单词提示1.acrobats 杂技演员2.Monsieur 先生3.bald 秃的4.pyramid 金字塔5.destination 目的地 原文Chapter 5: When Passepartout becomes an acrobatHong Kong was the last country they traveled to under British law.This was the inspector's final opportunity to get an arrest warrant for Phileas Fogg.It was not difficult to imagine his anger when he discovered that the British officials in Hong Kong knew nothing about the warrant and told him he had to wait for it.His only chance to arrest Phileas Fogg was to keep him in Hong Kong, but how?While he was thinking about this, Fix recognized Passepartout walking down the steps of the Carnatic, the ship which was taking them to Yokohama.An excited Inspector Fix ran towards him.Nice to meet you again, Mr ...?''Fix.We met in Egypt, in the Suez.''I'm sorry, Mr. Fix, but I really don't have time to talk,' said Passepartout, and he continued walking.'Of course, I won't stop you, but tell me, do you always go everywhere so quickly?''I need to go back to the hotel to tell my master that the Carnatic, isn't leaving tomorrow morning. The repairs are complete and the ship is going to leave tonight.''Oh,I understand, but let me walk with you on the way to your hotel,' said Inspector Fix.Suddenly Fix had an idea.'Maybe I can stop Passepartout from telling Phileas Fogg about the ship, and then the ship will leave without him!' he thought to himself.'It's still early,' Inspector Fix began. 'Why don't we have a drink, Monsieur Passepartout? I know a nice place near the hotel. I'm sure we can stop for a drink. It's difficult to find a good friend to talk to after such a long journey away from home. ''Well,just one drink... 'said Passepartout, who was enjoying his conversation with Inspector Fix.When they were inside the bar the detective's plan was complete.He ordered the drinks and asked the barman to make a very strong drink for Passepartout.Less than an hour later, Passepartout was drunk and fell asleep at the table.'Ah! Phileas Fogg will never know about the ship now,' he said to himself. 'And, now Mr. Fogg, I just need to wait until I have the warrant for your arrest, and it won't be long now, you can be certain of that!'The next day, when Phileas Fogg woke up, he was a little surprised to see that Passepartout was not there.He packed the suitcases himself and paid the hotel bill.Then he went straight to the port with Mrs. Aouda.But Passepartout was not there.'How strange!' thought Phileas Fogg, but he showed no surprise to find that the Carnatic was not at the port.In fact, he did not seem worried about the departure of the ship or his manservant.Instead he went to speak to the captains of the different boats in the port.Inspector Fix, who was waiting for Phileas Fogg, followed behind.What was Phileas Fogg's new plan?Fix saw him pay the captain of a small ship, who agreed to leave immediately.'Oh no!' thought Inspector Fix.' He always thinks of something. That thief! He can't escape! Not now.'Fix was very angry and upset.He walked up and down near the ship, until Phileas Fogg noticed the poor man.'Are you looking for a ship, too, my good man?' he asked. 'We're going to Japan. If that's the direction you're going in, you're welcome to come with us!'Thank you, sir. That's very kind of you. My ship left early and I am in a terrible situation, in fact, I was just thinking about how I could find another ship to take me to Yokohama,' replied Inspector Fix.He was amazed at his good luck but he was worried that things were not going exactly as he planned.He was determined to catch his thief.'I'll have to follow Fogg around the world if that's the only way I can catch him,'he thought.But where was our friend Passepartout?Passepartout woke up in the bar a few hours later.His head hurt and he could not remember anything, except that he came into a bar with someone he met and that he talked to a man about... the ship! The Carnatic was leaving that evening.He looked at his watch.'Oh no!' he thought. 'I'm late. Mr. Fogg will be at the port now.'He ran to the boat and got on.He looked everywhere for Mr. Fogg and Mrs. Aouda, but he could not see them.It was then that he started to remember his afternoon with the man he met at the port.'But of course,' he thought. 'Mr. Fogg doesn't know. How could he? I was still in that bar with Mr. Fix, and then l... 'It was too late. The ship was already sailing towards Yokohama.He felt very bad. This was terrible.His master was losing his bet because of him.And he did not have a penny in his pocket!When he arrived in Yokohama, he walked around the streets, trying to decide what to do.Soon he felt hungry and he decided to sell his elegant European jacket and buy an old Japanese one, but the money was not enough.He needed money to eat and to sleep, and, above all, to return home.Just when he thought the situation was hopeless, he saw an advertisement for a circus.Don't miss Batulcar's Circus. The last show before the circus moves to America.Acrobats, clowns, lions, tigers and much more!'What luck!' thought Passepartout. 'I'll go to the circus owner. If he lets me go with them, I can go to America, and from there to England.''So,you say you're from Paris?' said Mr. Batulcar, a big man with a bald head and a moustache.He looked at Passepartout carefully.'Yes,a true Parisian, from Paris,' replied Passepartout.'Well,you know how to make funny faces then,' said Mr. Batulcar smiling from the corners of his moustache.Passepartout did not understand what he meant. 'Err... yes,' he said uncertainly.'Good!Then you can start as a clown,' said Mr. Batulcar, 'and then you can do other jobs if we need an extra man. You can look after the tigers, for example.'Passepartout was not very happy about this offer, but he needed the job.That night an acrobat was ill, and Passepartout had to take his place as part of a human pyramid.Passepartout was at the bottom of the pyramid and he had to carry the weight of several men on his shoulders.The audience shouted out loudly, the drums sounded like a thunderstorm, and then...the people in the pyramid fell to the floor like a pack of cards.What happened?Passepartou twas running towards someone in the audience, someone he was very happy to see.It was his old employer, Phileas Fogg. But how did he get there?When Fogg and Mrs. Aouda arrived in Yokohama a week later, they spoke to the captain of the Carnatic and found Passepartout's name among the list of passengers, but his ticket only took him to Yokohama.Phileas Fogg and Mrs. Aouda wanted to find Passepartout before the ship left for its next destination - San Francisco.Inspector Fix, on the other hand, had no choice.He went with them and became their 'friend'.They looked all over the city but they could not find him anywhere.'We haven't much time left in the city. Let's go and see the circus. I believe it'svery good,' he told the others.Mr.Fix and Mrs. Aouda agreed.Phileas Fogg did not see his manservant among the acrobats, but his manservant certainly saw him, and he left everyone else in the human pyramid in a big group of arms and legs on the floor.They had no time to say sorry to a very angry Mr. Batulcar.The Carnatic was leaving for America.

While dance is often underfunded and under-recognized, leaders in the field acknowledge the incredible talent that lives within every dancer, reminding them that they are, in fact, ‘Acrobats of God'. Today's guest embodies the purpose of the Movers and Shapers: A Dance Podcast; to share insights from those who shape the dance field, and create an archive that preserves rich, personal experiences across generations. During this episode, Jeanne Ruddy shares what it was like to be a member of the Martha Graham Dance Company, and to work with Martha herself. You'll also hear how she forged her own unique role in dance, how she encourages other artists to flourish, and her passion for nurturing future generations of dancers in Philadelphia.

Join us to hear all about the highs and lows of our guest's incredible career today.  Key Points From This Episode: ·       Her first experiences of dance and her lifelong love of music. ·       The changing dance scene of the 1960s. ·       The pivotal period of time for a dancer between 16 and 21. ·       Her experience at North Carolina School of the Arts and Utah Repertory Dance Theatre.  ·       Traveling to New York and starting a company with no capital.  ·       Getting a huge break with Yuriko Kikuchi after auditioning with Getting to Know You.  ·       Being chosen to be in the Martha Graham Dance Company and enjoying a ten-year career.  ·       Why Martha would sit in the second wing, stage right, in a director's chair, during performances. ·       The eventual decision to leave the company due to pain.  ·       The birth of the Performance Garage in Philadelphia.   ·       The program Jeanne currently facilitates for dancers.  ·       What Martha Graham taught: dancers are acrobats of God.  “I walked out of Deaths and Entrances, I was definitely a child of the 60s, and I didn't like it. Seven years later, I was playing one of the sisters in that very piece in Lincoln Centre. I loved it.” — Jeanne Ruddy  Jeanne Ruddy is a former Principal Dancer with the Martha Graham Company where she performed throughout the World, on Broadway, served on the faculties of The Juilliard School, Alvin Ailey School, colleges and universities in the US and abroad, founded Jeanne Ruddy Dance, and a center for dance – the Performance Garage, in Philadelphia.

Living the Gospel–Pete Gilmore–Circus Tents & Flat Acrobats (A question that Pete often gets about being a Christian is why? Why do we have to pray? Why do we need to go to church together? Why do we have to read the Bible? Why do we have to serve each other? Why do we have to do all these things? Pete's answer is that our lives are like the circus big top, and these things we do, prayer, church, Bible service, community, they're like the tent poles that make space inside of us. And once we have that space, the ring master, Jesus, says step right up. Step right up for the greatest show on Earth. When you feel like God is not close as yourself how are your tent poles? Where's the space? This week let's venture into the Scriptures. Let's dive into church. Let's love one another. Let's make space for us to live with God and God with us.)

You often hear people giving business or career advice along the lines of, "Do something you love and you'll never have a bad day at work." Intuitively you just know that's not true: there's no such thing as having a great day every day, but as we've discovered over the years here on Out to Lunch, you can get pretty close. We've met people who have turned their passions for bee keeping, scuba diving, art, and may more occupations into profitable businesses. Stephanie's guests on this edition of Out to Lunch are further examples - they're rock climbers and acrobats. Rock climbers Lee Guilbeau is owner of Uptown Climbing, a rock-climbing studio in Baton Rouge that offers climbing in many forms for climbers with various levels of experience. Lee and Rob Antrobus, his business partner, opened the studio in 2017, two years after meeting by chance at a climbing wall industry conference in Colorado. At the time, they were both trying to open gyms. They decided to team up and combine their skillset. Six years later, Uptown Climbing is the largest climbing studio in Baton Rouge. Lee and Rob are both Baton Rouge natives. Lee has a kinesiology degree from LSU and worked a bit in the mountains of Colorado and then Wyoming before coming back to Baton Rouge, where he worked as a trainer for more than a decade before opening Uptown Climbing.  Acrobats Erik Otts is a professional acrobat and aerialist who owns a Baton Rouge acrobatic studio called Acreaux. Eric teaches students how to do circus tricks, including balancing poses with partners, twisting, hanging from silks, and more. If you're the type of person who is looking to have a body that looks like you've spent hours in the gym but you don't actually enjoy spending hours in the gym, working out with Erik and his staff at Acreaux might be the kind of challenging but fun and rewarding workout you're looking for. If you're a regular listener to Out to Lunch Baton Rouge you might recognize Erik's name: he's also our photographer! Photography is something he enjoys doing in his free time but it's more than just a hobby.  Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at Mansurs on the Boulevard.

It's all happening in Episode 8: a cosmic princess on a bendy stilt, men wearing grandpa knickers, and incredibly well-rehearsed barstool choreography. What more could you want? Kate Miller-Heidke starts things off in style with a perfect mix of pop, opera and madness, before Armenia's Sirusho delivers a dance-floor filler. We are also enchanted by the folky vibes of groundbreaking Åsa Kleveland performing in Eurovision's first ever trouser-suit and fondly discuss the legendary Carrie Grant, judge on the brilliant Fame Academy, who represented the UK back in 1986 as part of pop trio Sweet Dreams. The iconic Go_A's Shum is a worthy entrant in the bridesmaid slot and we particularly celebrate the song's ding moment, while we consider Cyndi to be a better choice than Scooch to go to Eurovision in 2007 even if she does strike us as a serial plagiarist! Thanks to JonWatt867 for this recommendation. Finally, the Randomiser is chaotically on brand taking us back to 2005 for an obscure Croatian entry about wolves dying alone. All life is here, including lots of mullets and acrobats. You have been warned!

In Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost, he writes about a tumbler wearing colours in their hoop. This reference is to a specific act of theater performance called tumbling. If you've already studied the all-male stage we know Shakespeare had at his theater, you may be tempted to think that tumblers were men. However, as the research of the project Engendering the Stage aims to bring to light, historical records for Shakespeare's lifetime show that in terms of the theatre industry as a whole for the late 16th and early 17th century, theater performance was far from all male. In fact, women were not only prominent players in public performance, but they weren't entirely excluded on the basis of religion and morality, either, because we have records of distinguished women from one of the strictest religious sects in England, the Puritans, acting on stage in full costume. To help us unpack this conundrum and explore this world of the travelling street performers where elaborate and complicated feats of acrobatics, tight-rope walking, tumbling and even trapeze acts would have taken place using women at center stage, we welcome author of Women on the Renaissance Stage and contributor to the Engendering the Stage project, Professor Clare McManus.

A talk by Thanissaro Bhikkhu entitled "Acrobats"

Ever wonder what it's like to take off to L.A. and chase the road to stardom? We only hear of people far-off in the distance that make the trek out to the big city to chase their childhood dreams. Now, what if we told you that we could get down to the nitty gritty with someone who actually took the plunge and drove to the west coast to shoot his shot (with just 1500 dollars to his name). Insert James Heugh... a former mixed martial artist turned professional acrobat from the small town of Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Now James may not have become the Oscar winning actor or the lead vocalist that we tend to think of when people head to "The City of Angels", however, he found his own niche in acrobatics which absolutely took off for him. He became an "America's Got Talent" Finalist and was featured on "Ellen" for his talents. But don't let his huge smile fool you as it wasn't always rainbows and butterflies on this guest's journey and he goes deep on the adversity that he faced on his way to becoming one of Santa Monica's finest Acrobats.

Have you ever wondered if there is a benefit to wearing socks that are specifically made for dancing? Today we are sharing a very informative talk from Dr. Jeff Russell.

Dr. Jeff Russell is Associate Professor of Athletic Training and Director of Science and Health in Artistic Performance (SHAPe) at Ohio University.

How do we view fitness in our lives? Today, there is a small, but significant population who have shirked its hobby-like status and have transformed fitness into veritable outlook on life itself. They seek to embody what writer and journalist Kunitz calls, the practicing life. But is this just another cultish byproduct of late modernity, or does being physically have deeper roots than we might expect? I recently spoke to Daniel, whose book, Lift: Fitness Culture from Naked Greeks and Acrobats to jazzercise and Ninja Warriors, explores the social dynamics of what it means for humans to be physically fit.
