English to Spanish: Cochlear implant recipient rides the race of his life. General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Instruments
Source text - English Title: Cochlear implant recipient rides the race of his life.
Twenty-year-old dirt bike rider and cochlear implant recipient, Nick Cooke recently
undertook the ride of his life: the gruelling Tatt’s Finke Desert Race in Alice Springs, the red
centre of Australia. Entering on a motorbike he built himself with the guidance of a family
friend, Nick had been preparing for the two-day off-road, multi-terrain race for months. It was
his ultimate challenge since first learning to ride a motor bike at age three.
Encouraged by his parents, Nick grew up with a love of sports. Despite being deaf in his left
ear since birth and losing most of the hearing in his right ear during a family holiday in third
grade, Nick has never allowed his hearing loss to hold him back.
Receiving his cochlear implant at 10 years of age, Nick says it’s made “a huge difference”
to his life. From early on, he felt more included and his school grades improved. “I didn't
really have to sit at the front of the class anymore, I could hear the teacher,” says Nick. “I
could play card games or do an activity with another classmate, and not have to look at
them. I could just hear them.”
Nick’s cochlear implant system also offered the security of being able to hear cars and trams,
as well as what was being said around him – something that allowed him to ride his
motorbike and enjoy a wide range of sports growing up.
“At school I played racquetball, basketball, downball, tennis ... I did everything,” says Nick.
“I didn't really say no to any sports. I grew up motorbike riding, I grew up wakeboarding and
snowboarding.” He has worked out how to accommodate his CochlearTM Nucleus® 7 Sound
Processor under protective sports helmets.
Rather than motor cross, which often involves clusters of riders racing together, Nick has
chosen the Enduro events where participants race against the clock and with a staggered
start according to their position in a preliminary time trial.
“That's a bit safer with your enhanced gearing. In my opinion, it’s a little friendlier too ...
there’s less accidents ... it’s more technical,” says Nick who, given the noise of the engines,
doesn’t need to rely on his hearing during the race itself.
As well as gym sessions and running, working full-time as an apprentice landscaper helped
Nick prepare physically for this latest challenge which involved racing at speed for the three- and-a-half hours continuously each day.
With COVID-19 restrictions in his home state forewarned, Nick was able to get to the race
location before borders closed and compete for the first 230km. Racing in the competition
for the first time, Nick says his aim was not to be among the fastest racers, but to finish the
race and to “learn how to do it properly and safely” in the often deep sandy, desert
conditions.

Translation - Spanish Título: Receptor de implante coclear monta la carrera de su vida.
Nick Cooke, un motociclista de montaña de veinte años y receptor de implantes cocleares,
emprendió recientemente el viaje de su vida: la agotadora carrera del desierto Tatts Finke
en Alice Springs, el centro rojo de Australia. Al entrar en una motocicleta que él mismo
construyó con la guía de un amigo de la familia, Nick se había estado preparando para la
carrera todoterreno y multiterreno de dos días durante meses. Fue su mayor desafío desde
que aprendió a andar en motocicleta a los tres años.
Animado por sus padres, Nick creció con un amor por los deportes. A pesar de ser sordo
en el oído izquierdo desde su nacimiento y perder la mayor parte de la audición en el oído
derecho durante unas vacaciones familiares en tercer grado, Nick nunca ha permitido que
su pérdida auditiva lo detenga.
Al recibir su implante coclear a los 10 años de edad, Nick dice que ha hecho "una gran
diferencia" en su vida. Desde el principio, se sintió más incluido y sus calificaciones
escolares mejoraron. "Realmente ya no tenía que sentarme al frente de la clase, podía
escuchar al maestro", dice Nick. "Podía jugar juegos de cartas o hacer una actividad con
otro compañero de clase sin tener que mirarlo. Solamente lo podía escuchar."
El sistema de implante coclear de Nick también ofrecía la seguridad de poder escuchar
coches y tranvías, así como lo que se decía a su alrededor, algo que le permitió montar en
moto y disfrutar de una amplia gama de deportes mientras crecía.
"En la escuela jugaba ráquetbol, baloncesto, bola abajo, tenis ... Lo hacía todo", dice Nick.
Realmente nunca dije que no a ningún deporte. Crecí montando en moto, crecí haciendo
esquí acuático y patinaje sobre nieve." Él ha resuelto cómo acomodar su Procesador
Coclear de Sonido TM Nucleus® 7 bajo cascos deportivos protectores.
En lugar del motocrós, que a menudo involucra a grupos de corredores que compiten juntos,
Nick ha elegido los eventos de Enduro donde los participantes compiten contra el reloj y
con un inicio escalonado de acuerdo con su posición en una contrarreloj preliminar.
"Eso es un poco más seguro con su engranaje mejorado. En mi opinión, también es un
poco más amigable ... Hay menos accidentes ... Es más técnico," dice Nick, quien, dado el
ruido de los motores, no necesita depender de su audición durante la carrera en sí.
Además de las sesiones de gimnasio y correr, trabajar a tiempo completo como aprendiz
de paisajista ayudó a Nick a prepararse físicamente para este último desafío, que implicaba
correr a gran velocidad durante las tres horas y media continuas de cada día.
Con las restricciones de COVID-19 en su estado natal advertidas, Nick pudo llegar al lugar
de la carrera antes de que se cerraran las fronteras y competir por los primeros 230 km.
Compitiendo en la competencia por primera vez, Nick dice que su propósito era no estar
entre los corredores más rápidos, sino terminar la carrera y "aprender a hacerlo de manera
adecuada y segura" en las condiciones a menudo arenosas y desérticas.

English to Spanish: Inspirational Stories: Rick Riordan life. General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English Inspirational Stories: Rick Riordan life.
Many people do not know Rick Riordan, who is a normal teacher, from
Texas, US. Inside his teacher's mask, he hides a mysterious talent that
is making up unique fantasy worlds. On the other hand, his interest in
history motivated him to study both northern myth and Greek myth.
His particular passion was abandoned by the daily scholarly routines that
allowed him to follow a safely organized rhythm as many professionals
nowadays.
With his charming wife, whom Rick met younger, both of them decided
to bet on teaching, becoming secondary school teachers in a small
village in San Francisco. Their lives were focused on that school. Their
undivided attention was led to give captivating entertaining lessons that,
unfortunately, had not had when they were teens.
But there was something Rick did not know that life takes many turns,
even more than he could want.
On a typical night, he decided to tell a bedtime story, at the request of
his sleepy son, to not sleep. After last night, he was clear that his son
wanted to continue listening to his father's short stories. Surprisingly, it
became a habit between them.
The following month, Rick found that he had no more stories to tell, so
he decided to talk about what he knew best; Greek mythology, such as
the Gods of Olympus and the Vikings.
Over time, these stories became endless, which seemed like long novels
like Don Quijote de La Mancha. The interesting thing for Rick is that his
stories were huge novels... Their stories were interspersed with youth,
interesting, mythological novels, such as The Lord of the Rings.
It is said that what you believe, you make real. Apparently, Rick's desire
was manifested by becoming a writer of novels for all generations.
The major motivation was his youngest son and being able to teach him
a huge life lesson that books transport you to incomparable worlds.
Moreover, Rick wished that his son's interest would be so much that he
Spanish learning.
Written by Oscar Felipe Núñez Alfaro.
For Majmoud Bentellis
would get lost in the magical world that he had built and that he would
see endless possibilities.
Surprisingly, professionals had diagnosed Rick's youngest son with
dyslexia, the same difficulty he presented when he was the same age.
For many, dyslexia is a disease, for others it is just a difficulty presented
by some young people in literacy, which fortunately does not affect
general intelligence. They are only diminished in some school areas, but
with a good guide they are even able to become writers, as is the case
of their father Rick.
Of course, every conflict requires a hero to solve it. But in this case, one
of flesh and blood was the one indicated for the task, since it required
patience and effort, virtues of a compassionate human being. As
expected, Rick could not miss the opportunity, knowing his vast interest
in the Greek heroes and their great exploits.
Therefore, his writing career began to make sense and after many
attempts he was able to publish his first novel for adults; The Three
Navarre. later, he published with great success his first book in the
series; Percy Jackson and the Heroes of Olympus, and thus he
continued to reap literary successes.
Finally, as Rick expected, his son found motivation in stories, the power
of imagination within reading and comprehension in the novels that his
father told from that typical night.
The moral: ordinary people are, after all, the most extraordinary.
Do you have any moral to this story? Tell me about it.
Translation - Spanish Historias Inspiradoras: La vida de Rick Riordan.
Para los que no saben Rick Riordan, es un profesor común y corriente,
de Texas, Estados Unidos. Pero dentro de su mascara de profesor
esconde un talento oculto; poder imaginar mundos fantásticos y
distintos. Por otra parte, su interés por la historia lo lleva a estudiar la
mitología nórdica y griega.
Su pasión bastante peculiar se ve desplazada por las rutinas escolares
diurnas que lo hacen seguir un ritmo seguro y estructurado como
muchos profesionales actualmente.
Con su amada esposa, que conoció desde joven, decidieron apostar por
la enseñanza, siendo profesores de una escuela secundaria en una
comunidad de San Francisco. Sus vidas giraban en torno a esa escuela.
El interés de ambos iba dirigido hacia poder dar clases entretenidas e
interesantes, que desafortunadamente no tuvieron desde muy jóvenes.
Lo que no sabía Rick es que la vida da muchas vueltas, más de las que
él quisiera.
Una noche típica, él decide contar un cuento a petición de su hijo
soñoliento, para no dormir. Después de esa noche, estaba claro que el
hijo quería continuar con los relatos de su padre, que a modo de
sorpresa se convirtió en una rutina entre ellos.
Al mes siguiente, Rick se topa que no tiene más historias que contar,
por lo que decide hablar de lo que él más conoce; la mitología griega,
como son los Dioses del Olimpo y los Vikingos.
A lo largo del tiempo, estas historias se volvieron interminables, que
parecían novelas largas como Don quijote de la mancha. Lo interesante,
para Rick es que si lo eran... Sus historias se entremezclaban con
novelas mitológicas y modernas, juveniles e interesantísimas, como El
señor de los anillos. Dicen que lo que crees, lo creas en la realidad. Al parecer si se
manifestó el deseo de Rick, al convertirse en escritor de novelas para
todas las generaciones.
Aprendizaje del español.
Escrito por Oscar Felipe Núñez Alfaro.
Para Majmoud Bentellis.
El gran motor era su hijo menor y poderle enseñar una gran lección de
vida, que los libros te transportan a mundos inigualables. Además,
deseaba que el interés de su hijo fuera tanto que se perdiera en el
mundo mágico que él había construido y que viera posibilidades
infinitas.
Sorprendentemente, profesionales habían diagnosticado con dislexia al
hijo menor de Rick, la misma dificultad que él presentó cuando tenía la
misma edad. Para muchos, la dislexia es una enfermedad, para otros
es solo una dificultad que presentan algunos jóvenes en la
lectoescritura, que afortunadamente no afecta la inteligencia general.
Solo se ven mermados en algunas áreas escolares, pero con una buena
guía son capaces, incluso de volverse escritores, como es el caso de su
padre Rick.
Claro está, todo conflicto requiere de un héroe que lo resuelva. Pero en
este caso, uno de carne y hueso era el indicado para la tarea, ya que
requería de paciencia y esfuerzo, virtudes propias de un ser humano
compasivo. Como era de esperarse, Rick no podía perder la
oportunidad, conociendo su gran interés por los héroes griegos y sus
grandes hazañas.
Por lo tanto, su carrera de escritor empezó a tener sentido y tras muchos
intentos pudo lograr publicar su primera novela para adultos; Los tres
Navarra, para luego publicar con gran éxito su primer libro de la serie;
Percy Jackson y los héroes del olimpo, y así continuó cosechando éxitos
literarios.
Finalmente, como Rick esperaba, su hijo encontró motivación en las
historias, el poder de la imaginación dentro de la lectura y la solución en
las novelas que su padre contaba desde aquella noche tan típica.
