The comparison made me start thinking like Leeuwenhoek.
这个比较使我像列文虎克一样开始思考。
Leeuwenhoek and others began microscopic observations at the same time.
列文虎克等人同时期也开始了显微镜观察。
Pressing the glass to his eyelike a jeweler, Leeuwenhoek watched his own animalcules swim about, lashingtheir long tails.
列文虎克像珠宝商似地把放大镜按在眼睛上，观察自己的微生物甩动着长尾巴四处游动。
Its lens, no bigger than a small raindrop, magnified objects hundreds of times. Leeuwenhoek had made it himself; nobody else had one so powerful.
显微镜那个没有小雨点大的镜头能把物体放大几百倍。列文虎克亲自把他制作出来。没有其他人如此超强能力。
It is interesting to note that magnifying lenses were used by Bacon in the late 1200s, but had never been focused on a drop of water until the 1600s by Leeuwenhoek.
有趣的是我们注意到，虽然培根在13世纪末期就使用放大镜了，但直到17世纪才由列文虎克将放大镜对准一滴水。
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, pioneering microscopist, observed in 1702 that dry sediments of "animalcules", expected to be dead, were brought back to life when exposed to rain water.
安东尼·范·列文虎克——使用显微镜的先驱，在1702年观测发现，把被认为死亡了的干枯的“微生物”沉积物放在雨水中时它们又复活了。
