It can also be easily drawn out into wire, and for this reason we call it ductile.

通过拉伸，人们就可以获得铜线，因此我们说铜具有延展性。

When steel fails, it is usually a ductile event.

当钢材失效时，通常是延性事件。

Concrete is not ductile by nature.

- 混凝土本质上不是延展性的。

Ductile means that something is able to deform without losing its strength.

延展性味着某物能够形而不会失去其强度。

Meaning that they can be pounded in to various shapes, and ductile, meaning that they can be stretched out in to wires.

味着它们可以被压成各种形状，并且具有延展性，味着它们可以被拉伸成电线。

He had deserted those never-failing friends, so they seemed to say, for an unstable delight in a ductile woman, which had ended all in bitterness.

他抛弃了那些永远不会失败的朋友，所以他们似乎在说，为了对一个柔顺的女人的不稳定的喜悦，一切都以痛苦告终。

Their growing minds soon close above the wound;their elastic spirits soon rise beneath the pressure; their green and ductile affections soon twine round new objects.

他们成长的心智很快在伤口之上闭合； 他们富有弹性的精神很快在压力之下崛起； 他们青涩而柔韧的感情很快就会缠绕在新的物体上。

Metals are generally defined by the physical traits we associate with them they're hard but malleable, meaning they can be hammered into thin sheets, but they're also ductile or can be pulled into wires.

我们一般根据相关联的物理性质定义金属，它们都很硬，但具有可塑性，味着它们能被锤成薄片。但它们也有延展性，可以被拉成电线。
