- Sinatra with a cold is Picasso without paint, Ferrari without fuel—only worse. For the common cold robs Sinatra of that uninsurable jewel, his voice, cutting into the core of his confidence, and it affects not only his own psyche but also seems to cause a kind of psychosomatic nasal drip within dozens of people who work for him, drink with him, love him, depend on him for their own welfare and stability. A Sinatra with a cold can, in a small way, send vibrations through the entertainment industry and beyond as surely as a President of the United States, suddenly sick, can shake the national economy.[1]

IT IS hard to explain the enduring appeal of Bruce Forsyth—especially, perhaps, to anyone who isn't British. Mr Forsyth, who turns 80 next month, sports a silly toupee and an elongated chin. The jokes he makes in his high-camp nasal voice are too naff for reproduction in an upmarket newspaper.

I try to find ideas from something seemingly unrelated and extrapolate its essence to arrive at new and fresh ideas. That’s a good way to avoid sophomoric statements.
Becoming a Product Designer 可悲的翻譯
A nostril (or naris /ˈneɪrɪs/, plural nares /ˈneɪriːz/) is one of the two channels of the nose, from the point where they bifurcate to the external opening. In birds and mammals, they contain branched bones or cartilages called turbinates, whose function is to warm air on inhalation and remove moisture on exhalation. Fish do not breathe through their noses, but they do have two small holes used for smelling, which may, indeed, be called nostrils.
The Procellariiformes are distinguished from other birds by having tubular extensions of their nostrils.
In humans, the nasal cycle is the normal ultradian cycle of each nostril's blood vessels becoming engorged in swelling, then shrinking.
The nostrils are separated by the septum. The septum can sometimes be deviated, causing one nostril to appear larger than the other. With extreme damage to the septum and columella, the two nostrils are no longer separated and form a single larger external opening.
Like other tetrapods, humans have two external nostrils (anterior nares) and two additional nostrils at the back of the nasal cavity, inside the head (posterior nares, posterior nasal apertures or choanae). Each choana contains approximately 1000 strands of nasal hair. They also connect the nose to the throat (the nasopharynx), aiding in respiration. Though all four nostrils were on the outside the head of our fish ancestors, the nostrils for outgoing water (excurrent nostrils) migrated to the inside of the mouth, as evidenced by the discovery of Kenichthys campbelli, a 395-million-year-old fossilized fish which shows this migration in progress. It has two nostrils between its front teeth, similar to human embryos at an early stage. If these fail to join up, the result is a cleft palate.[1]
It is possible for humans to smell different olfactory inputs in the two nostrils and experience a perceptual rivalry akin to that of binocular rivalry when there are two different inputs to the two eyes.[2]
甲鼻孔(或鼻孔 / Ñ eɪ ř ɪ 小號 /時,多個鼻孔 / Ñ eɪ ř 我Ž /)是的兩個通道中的一個鼻子,從那裡它們分叉到外部開口的點。在鳥類和哺乳動物中,它們含有稱為鼻甲的分支骨或軟骨,其功能是在吸入時加熱空氣,並在呼氣時除去水分。魚不能通過鼻子呼吸,但他們確實有兩個小孔用於嗅覺,其實可以稱為鼻孔。
像其他四足動物一樣,人類在鼻腔後面有兩個外鼻孔(前鼻孔)和另外兩個鼻孔,鼻後部鼻孔或鼻孔。每隻蟒蛇包含大約1000股鼻毛。他們還將鼻子連接到咽喉(鼻咽),幫助呼吸。雖然所有四個鼻孔都在我們的魚祖先的外面,但出水的鼻孔(排出的鼻孔)遷移到口腔內部,正如發現了Kenichthys campbelli所證明的,這是一種3.99億歲的化石顯示正在進行的遷移的魚。它的前牙之間有兩個鼻孔,類似於人類的胚胎在早期階段。如果這些不能加入,結果就是腭裂。[1]
