【探索世界】冰雪童話(1/18)
告別一大堆細胞構(gòu)成的生命體,待探索的,是那片潔白的童話世界。 Hints: Antarctica the South Pole the United States Europe year-round minus centigrade
I am at the very center of the great white continent, Antarctica. The South Pole is about half a mile away. For a thousand miles, in all directions, there is nothing but ice. And, in the whole of this continent, which is one and a half times the size of the United States and larger than Europe, there is a year-round population of no more than 800 people. This is the loneliest and the coldest place on earth, the place that is most hostile to life. And yet, in one or two places, it is astonishingly rich.
Penguins come here by the million and endure temperatures of minus 70 degrees centigrade and winds of 120 miles an hour.
我在偉大的白色大陸,南極洲的中心。南極距我們約半英里遠。漫漫千里,空空如也...除了冰。而且,在整個這片大陸,這是一個半倍大小的美國和歐洲比更大,這里全年的人口不超過800人。這是最孤獨的,地球上最冷的地方,這個地方是最惡劣的生活。然而,在那么一塊兩塊地里蘊藏著驚人的寶藏。
企鵝不遠百萬里來到這兒,(他們還要)忍受零下70°的低溫和時速120英里的風
