1·She scavenges along the rough mountain roads for water while the giant lake created by the dam lies untouched a few hundred meters below on the valley floor.
她为了取水沿途清扫着高低不平的山路,因为大坝建立了一个大湖位于未被触及的几百米以下的谷底。
2·Below, the cliffs fell straight to the valley floor, and as we jolted over the bridge I remembered nervously being told that it was high enough to fit Christchurch Cathedral beneath it.
下面,悬崖直线跌落至谷底。我们摇摇晃晃行进在桥上时,我神经紧张地想起有人告诉我,这桥可是比基督城大教堂还要高。
3·The beige dunes stretching to the north begin to take on a pink hue, and the shadows from the steep ridges to the southwest are spreading across the valley floor.
浅褐色的沙丘向北方延伸,披上了一层粉色;西南方峭壁的影子逐渐覆盖了谷底。
4·I compared those who hadn't noticed this peak to Wile E. Coyote of the "Road Runner" cartoons, who runs off the cliff and finds himself suspended in air before dropping to the valley floor.
我把那些没有注意到这些的人比作Wile e . Coyote笔下的卡通“公路奔跑者”,直到冲下悬崖才发现自己悬在空中,即将坠落谷底。
