Into the Sea

Into the sea.

潜入大海里。

My name is Emma Hickerson. I am a scientist. I study plants and animals of the sea. I use this little sub. It is a special sub that can dive deep into the water.

我叫艾玛·希克森，我是一名科学家，研究海洋里的动植物。 我用这艘小小的潜水艇，它很特别，可以潜到很深的水里。

The sub has tanks of air for me to breathe. The sub has bright lights too. They help me see the plants and animals.

潜水艇里有储气罐，供我呼吸使用。 潜水艇还有明亮的探照灯。 它们能帮我看清海里的动植物。

I want to see what kinds of sharks live here. This sub has a camera, so I take pictures of the sharks that swim by.

我想看看这里生活着哪些种类的鲨鱼。 潜水艇上装了相机，所以我会给游过的鲨鱼拍照。

Sometimes I dive off a boat into the sea. I put on a special suit for diving. I wear an air tank. I wear a mask and flippers too.

有时候我会从船上跳进海里潜水。 我会穿上特制的潜水服。 我背上氧气瓶，还会戴上面镜、穿上脚蹼。

I carry a special camera that works underwater. I take pictures of the seaweed. I want to see how big it can grow.
