23、e cylinder can be called as strokes.Stroke refers to piston movement;a stroke occurs when the piston moves from one limiting41 position to another.The upper limit42 of piston movement is called TDC43(top dead center).The lower limit of piston movement is called BDC44(bottom dead center).A stroke is
24、piston moves from TDC to BDC or from BDC to TDC.In other words,the piston changes its direction of motion every time it completes a stroke.The four strokes of four-stroke engine are intake stroke45,compression stroke46,power stroke47 and exhaust stroke48.Four-Stroke EngineTask 1畅 享 阅 读 进气冲程 活塞向下移动，进
25、气门打开。活塞下行时，可燃混合气进入气缸。当活塞到达下止点时，进气门关闭，将可燃混合气封闭于气缸中。压缩冲程 活塞到达下止点后开始向上运动。这时，进气门关闭，排气门保持关闭。由于活塞向上运动（由转动的曲轴和连杆推动），可燃混合气被压缩。当活塞到达上止点时，可燃混合气被压缩到只有原体积的1/10，甚至更少。Intake Stroke The piston moves down,and the intake valve opens.As the piston moves down,the air-fuel mixture is drawn into the cylinder.When the pi
26、ston reaches the BDC,the intake valve closes,trapping49 the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder.Compression Stroke After the piston reaches BDC,it begins to move upward.As this happens,the intake valve closes and the exhaust valve remains closed.Since the piston moves upward(pushed now by the revolving
27、50 crankshaft and connecting rod),the air-fuel mixture is compressed.When the piston reaches TDC,the mixture has been compressed to as little as one tenth of its original volume51,or even less.Task 1畅 享 阅 读 做功冲程 当活塞在压缩行程结束时接近上止点时，进气门和排气门都被关闭。电火花在火花塞间隙跳动，点燃混合气。当混合气燃烧时，燃烧室内会产生高温和高压。燃烧气体产生的膨胀力向下推动活塞顶部。
28、连杆将这种推力传递给曲轴，曲轴从上止点经180旋转到下止点。Power Stroke As the piston nears TDC at the end of the compression stroke,both the intake and exhaust valves are closed.An electric spark jumps at the spark plug52 gap53 and ignites the mixture.As the mixture burns,high temperatures and pressure are created in the combu
