Deep Below

Deep Below Do you like to swim?Have you ever been in a swimming pool?How deep was it?One metre?Two metres?Or maybe even five metres? Well, let me tell you about a very special place where you could go swimming. But I wouldn't recommend it because the water is 11 kilometres deep! Located in the Pacific Ocean, right beside Japan, is something called the Mariana Trench. It is like a deep valley in the ocean. Deep down, it is very dark and cold. Scary, right?

马里亚纳海沟 你喜欢游泳吗?你去过游泳池么?有多深?1米?两米?或者甚至5米? 让我告诉你一个非常特别的地方,你可以去游泳。但我不推荐它,因为水有11公里深! 位于太平洋,紧邻日本,它就是马里亚纳海沟。它就像海洋中的一个深谷。在内心深处,它非常黑暗和寒冷, 很可怕,对吧?

When you are swimming, do you ever feel the pressure in your ears?This is caused by the weight of the water. Imagine how your ears would feel with 11 kilometres of water on top of you! Underneath all of that water, there are still creatures living there. They must be really strange. Maybe, to some people, the Mariana Trench sounds like a fun place to go swimming. But not to me. I'd choose a nice, warm beach any day!

当你游泳时,你有没有感觉到耳朵有压力?这是由水的重量造成的。想象一下你的耳朵有11公里的水在你上面! 在这些水的下面,仍然有生物生活在那里。他们一定很奇怪吧。 也许,对一些人来说,马里亚纳海沟听起来是个游泳的好地方。但对我来说不是。我会选择一个舒适温暖的海滩!
