Why the early dinosaurs survived while the crurotarsans perished is not known, said Whiteside.

为什么早期的恐龙幸存下来了，而鳄踝初龙却灭绝了？ 怀特塞德表示还没有找到原因。

Even though contemporary time is just a blink in geological terms, the findings still have modern relevance, said Whiteside.

怀特塞德表示即便当代在地质时间上只是短短一瞬，但是这些发现仍然具有其现代意义。

Dr Whiteside found the ratio yawed around like a drunken sailor as the continents split apart and the lava started pouring out.

Whiteside has already proven to me he has the talent to be worth a big contract. Now he has to prove he can be trusted mentally.

怀特塞德已经证明了他的天赋配得上大合同，现在他必须证明他心智上是值得信赖的才行。
