1·China has 61 million acres of wetlands, which include swamps, mangroves, lagoons, river deltas, lakes, and coastal areas that collectively cover about 2.5 percent of the country.
中国湿地面积大约61英亩,包括沼泽、红树林、环礁湖、河流三角洲、湖泊以及沿海一些地区,总计为国土面积的2.5%。
2·As the oceans swell with water from melting ice sheets, it is the crowded river deltas in southern Asia and Egypt, along with small island nations, that are most at risk.
由于冰片融化,海洋水位增加,位于南亚和埃及的人口密集的河流三角洲以及一些小岛国,面临的危险最大。
3·The valleys were the source of sediment that was carried downstream and dumped into the deltas.
河流峡谷将会是沉积物的重要来源,这些沉积物是被河水携带着,顺流而下汇集到三角洲的。
4·The result is a collection of 40 images of deserts, deltas, glaciers, cloud formations, mountains, valleys and coastlines where light is the medium and not paint.
这种最终的图片中包括了四十组沙漠、三角洲、冰川、云层、高山、峡谷及海岸线的图像,其中光是自然呈现的,并非特意的涂色。
5·Hoping to catch a glimpse of the Deltas, I went to the kitchen door, a glass door, and cupped my hands beside my eyes to take a look.
满怀希望可以看上一眼“三角洲”,我走向厨房的玻璃门,双手窝在两眼边,向外看了一看。
