wǒ men kě yǐ bǎ dì qiú xiǎng xiàng chéng yī kuài shuò dà wú péng de cí tiě

我们可以把地球想象成一块硕大无朋的磁铁。

We can imagine the earth as a gigantic magnet.

jǐn guǎn dà běn zhōng shuò dà wú péng zǒu shí què hěn zhǔn què wù chā jī hū cóng wèi chāo chū yī miǎo

尽管大本钟硕大无朋，走时却很准确，误差几乎从未超出一秒。

In spite of its huge size, Big Ben is a very good timekeeper and almost never gets more than a second off time.
