English to Spanish: Major Categories of Federal Income and Outlays for Fiscal year 2000 General field: Bus/Financial Detailed field: Finance (general)
Source text - English On or before the first Monday in February of each year, the President is required by law to submit to the Congress a budget proposal for the fiscal year that begins the following October. The budget plan sets forth the President's proposed receipts, spending, and the surplus or deficit for the Federal Government. The plan includes recommendations for new legislation as well as recommendations to change, eliminate, and add programs. After receiving the President's proposal, the Congress reviews it and makes changes. It first passes a budget resolution setting its own targets for receipts, outlays, and surplus or deficit. Next, individual spending and revenue bills that are consistent with the goals of the budget resolution are enacted.
In Fiscal year 200 (which began on October 1, 1999, and ended on September 30, 200), Federal income was $2,025 billion and outlays were $1,789 billion, leaving a surplus of $236 billion.
Translation - Spanish En febrero de cada año (el primer lunes o antes), el Presidente está obligado por ley a presentar ante el Congreso una propuesta presupuestaria para el año fiscal que comienza el próximo mes de Octubre. El plan presupuestario propuesto por el Presidente, establece el gasto y los excedentes o déficit del Gobierno Federal. El plan incluye recomendaciones para nuevas leyes así como recomendaciones para cambiar, eliminar y agregar programas. Después de recibir la propuesta del Presidente, el Congreso lo revisa y modifica según considere necesario. En primer lugar, pasa una resolución presupuestaria para fijar sus propias metas en cuanto a ingresos, desembolsos y excedentes o déficit. Luego, son aprobados todos los gastos individuales y proyectos de leyes fiscales que sean consistentes con los objetivos de la resolución sobre el presupuesto.
En el año fiscal 2000 (que inició el primero de octubre de 1999 y finalizó el 30 de septiembre del 2000), el ingreso federal fue de $2.025 mil millones de dólares y los desembolsos fueron de $1.789 mil millones, dejando un excedente de $236 mil millones.
English to Spanish: The northern zone General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Geography
Source text - English The northern zone presents rolling hills and plains bare of trees. The area is nearly always wind-swept. Snow and rainfall are limited to some 16 inches per year. In winter, the temperature has plummeted to as low as - 4º F, forming ice over the fields and causing sickness and sometimes death among the sheep, the area’s principal wealth. The record high in summer is 80 º F.
No one can count on the weather in this area. Rain showers may be interspersed with bright sun bursts throughout the day.
Lichens grow in all parts of the Island. Probably the most common are the Usnea, which hang like torn curtains from the trees. Lichens of all colors, especially orange, live on the rocks of the beach. They also grown in the mountains; near the summits a stiff black lichen calls attention.
A large variety of fungi inhabit the Island, especially in the damper forested zones. The best known and most usual are the tree fungi, one of the main foods of the Yahgan Indians, who ate any growing on trees, but none that grew on the ground.
Translation - Spanish La zona norte presenta colinas y planicies libre de árboles. El área es casi siempre barrida por el viento donde la nieve y las lluvias no pasan de 400 mm anuales. En invierno, las temperaturas han bajado hasta -20º C, formando hielo sobre los campos, causando enfermedades y a veces matando a las ovejas, principal riqueza de la zona. En verano se han registrado temperaturas de hasta 26 º C.
Nadie puede confiar en el clima de esta área. Las lluvias pueden estar intercaladas con ráfagas de sol brillante durante todo el día.
Los líquenes crecen por toda la isla. Probablemente los más comunes son los Usnea, que cuelgan de los árboles como cortinas desgarradas. Sobre las rocas de la playa, viven líquenes de todos los colores, especialmente anaranjados. También crecen en las montañas, cerca de las cumbres un rígido liquen negro llama la atención.
Una gran variedad de hongos habita la isla, especialmente en las zonas forestales más húmedas. El más conocido y común es el hongo de árbol, uno de los principales alimentos de los indígenas Yahgan, quienes comen todos los que crecen en los árboles, pero ninguno de los que crecen en la tierra.
