It may often be legitimate to spin it out into something like a marshallian "short period" . 把它伸长到如马歇尔派所称的“短时期”也还是合理的。
The policeman had been standing on the settee staring out, craning to see who was at the door . 警察站在长凳上，伸长了脖子以想看看是谁在门口。
In grasses the leaves elongate in the dark and break through the surrounding coleoptiles . 在草本植物中，叶子在黑暗中伸长，穿破包围它们的胚芽鞘而生长。
The growth of a pine shoot is often represented as the springtime elongation of a bud laid down the preceding summer . 松树枝梢的生长常常被说成是上年夏季形成的芽的春日伸长。
The elongation of a body in tension above its no-load length is directly proportional to the stretching force . 物体在拉伸状态下，其伸长量（相对于无负荷时的长度）与拉伸力成正比。
Growth retardants are chemicals that limit the elongation of stems without malformation of leaf, stem, or flower . 生长延缓剂这种化学药剂只是限制茎的伸长，而不会使叶子，茎或花变畸形。
If the force p is reduced or made zero, the elastic force will restore the spring to its original unstretched condition . 如果力P减小或变为零，那么弹性力就使弹簧恢复当初的未伸长状态。
As the rope lengthened, and still dick continued to pay it out, extreme fear began to conquer her resolution . 正当狄克把绳子不断地伸长，继续往外放出去的时候，她的决心却被极度的恐惧压倒了。
Normally small diameter sections produced by unredrawing have inferior properties with an apparently reduced extension at failure . 在正常情况下，拉丝做成的小直径断面具有破坏时伸长显著减少的不良性质。
For very large strains, where specimen enlongations of 100 percent may be encountered, liquid-metal strain gages can be used . 若应变非常大，例如，有的试件可能遇到100的伸长，这时，可用液态金属应变计。
