Deep in the Ocean

Deep in the Ocean, written by Natalie Rumpela. Focus question. How would you describe the deep ocean and what lives there?

《深海探秘》，娜塔莉·朗佩拉 著 思考问题 你会如何描述深海，以及那里生活着什么呢？

deep underwater. Imagine taking a trip to the deepest part of the ocean. What kinds of things would you expect to see? Would it be dark or light? Would the water be clear or cloudy? Would it be warm or cold? Would you find strange new animals and plants?

在深深的海底 想象一场去往海洋最深处的旅行 你预想会看到什么东西呢？ 那里是黑暗还是明亮？ 海水是清澈还是浑浊？ 海水是温暖还是冰冷？ 你能发现新奇的陌生动植物吗？

Sunlight warms the surface, or shallow parts, of the ocean down to about 200 meters 656 feet. Plants and animals that need sunlight and warm water live there, such as dolphins and sharks. Deep in the ocean, other animals, including squid and viper fish, Live in water that is cold and dark.

阳光可以温暖海面，也就是深度大约200米（656英尺）以内的浅海区域 需要阳光和温水的动植物生活在这里，比如海豚和鲨鱼 乌贼、毒蛇鱼等其他动物生活在深海冰冷黑暗的海水中

Diving Deep in the Ocean The deep ocean, below 1 ,000 meters 3 ,281 feet, is freezing cold. The weight of water or water pressure below 39 .6 meters, 130 feet, can harm you. Sport divers wear air tanks filled with a mixture of gases for safety. Deep divers wear a special hard diving suit to protect them from the water pressure. For really deep dives, groups of two or three scientists ride in a small submarine called a submersible.

潜入深海 1000米（3281英尺）以下的深海，冰冷刺骨 39.6米（130英尺）以下的水压会对人体造成伤害 休闲潜水员为了安全，会携带填充混合气体的氧气瓶 深水潜水员会穿特制的硬质潜水服，抵御水压伤害 进行超深潜水时，两到三名科学家会乘坐名叫潜水器的小型潜水艇下潜

Oceanographers. Scientists who study the ocean are called oceanographers. They often live for months on a ship and work seven days a week. Some study what a sea animal eats and where it lives. Others study the ocean water itself. All of them have to understand biology

海洋学家 研究海洋的科学家被称为海洋学家 他们常常一连几个月住在船上，每周七天都在工作 一部分人研究海洋动物的食性和栖息地 另一部分人研究海水本身 他们都需要掌握生物学知识

Using Satellites for Tracking Satellites can help to track sea animals' travels. Scientists tag some animals with electronic sensors. A satellite can track the signal from the tag on the animal's fin or back. Tracking the signal shows where the animal goes.

利用卫星追踪 卫星可以帮助追踪海洋动物的活动轨迹 科学家会给一些动物装上电子传感器标记 卫星可以追踪动物鱼鳍或背部标记发出的信号 追踪信号就能得知动物的活动去向
