Ⅳ.课文汉语译文
澳大利亚的神奇动物
我们今天(谈论)的主题是“澳大利亚独有的动物”,由野生动物专家吉姆·史密斯博士为我们解答问题。
澳大利亚有许多独特的动物,但哪一种是该国的象征呢?
那一定是袋鼠,因为它们广泛分布在澳大利亚各地。袋鼠是一种身体强壮,不得不在艰难的环境中生存的动物。此外,它无法后退,所以总是在向前移动,这表达了澳大利亚人作为个人和一个民族的力量与决心。小袋鼠出生时只有两克重,然后会自己爬到母亲的育儿袋(形似口袋)中,以保持安全和温暖。大约七八个月大之前,它们一直待在那个暂时受保护的环境里睡见和吃奶。过了这个阶段,它们就会出去试着用自己的双腿(行动)。学会跳跃以后,它们跟母亲共度的时间就逐渐变少了,(开始)学习独立。袋鼠可能看起来很可爱,不过遇到它们的结局并不总是那么美好。袋鼠踢打攻击的力度非常大,所以,各位如果看到袋鼠,请记住千万别去抚摸它们!
考拉很可爱,并且我们看到许多人们怀抱考拉的照片,但是在澳大利亚的很多地方,连碰一下考拉都是违法的。对此您能解释一下吗?
它们的确十分可爱,但事实是,考拉是极其敏感的生物,哪怕环境发生微小的变化,也容易引起它们的恐慌。它们花大量的时间吃饭、睡觉、抱着树干,因此与人类的互动会给它们带来很多压力。出于这点考虑,政府开始立法禁止触摸考拉,这是为了公共安全,也是为了保护考拉。因此,你如果在野外看到考拉,不应该靠近去抱它,甚至不应该触摸它。你如果想抱考拉的话,就必须去得到正式许可的动物园,那里的动物专家会确保每次挑选出来的考拉都处于良好状态,可以跟人类接触,同时确保它们(考拉)被人触摸的时间和次数只能在一定限度内。
好,我们说完一些可爱的动物,那些没这么可爱的动物又是什么样呢?
我最喜欢一种叫袋獾的小动物。你如果在塔斯马尼亚露营并遇到一只的话,那可能会吓到你!它们晚上捕食,所以你通常不会看到它们。但是它们打架或进食时,你可能会听到它们大声的叫喊。它们发出的声音可以吵醒死人。太吓人了!袋獾跟小狗体型相当,外表酷似巨大的黑老鼠。它们也会散发出难闻的气味!它们大多以动物尸体为食。幸运的是,尽管它们的名字(很吓人),但一般不会攻击人类。
澳大利亚还有一些很多人从未听说过的动物,比如鸭嘴兽,那是一种鸟吗?
完全不是。它尽管会跟鸟一样在巢里产卵,但实际上是一种原始的哺乳动物,具有独特的生理习性。它的卵大约十天孵化完成,然后小鸭嘴兽会跟所有其他的哺乳动物一样吃妈妈的奶。它的鼻子看起来像鸭嘴,脚像鸭掌,因此可以潜入水下(活动),但它浑身都是毛。你知道鸭嘴兽真正奇怪的地方是什么吗?它不靠视觉或嗅觉来觅食,而是拥有靠“鸭嘴”上的电传感器在水中觅食的能力,世界上只有很少的动物可以那样做!

课文原文
THE AMAZING ANIMALS OF AUSTRALIA
Our topic today is “Creatures Unique to Australia”, with questions answered by wildlife expert, Dr Jim Smith.
Australia has lots of unique animals, but which animal is a symbol of the country?
It has to be the kangaroo, as it has a wide distribution throughout the country. It’s a tough animal that has to survive in a difficult environment. Also, it cannot walk backwards, so it is always moving forwards. This expresses the strength and resolve of the Australians as individuals and as a nation. Baby kangaroos weigh only two grammes at birth. They then find their way into their mother’s pouch---a kind of pocket---to stay safe and warm. They sleep and drink milk in that temporary, protected environment until they are about seven or eight months old. After this phase, they go out to try their legs. After they learn to jump, they gradually spend less time with their mother and learn to be independent. Kangaroos may look cute, but encounters with them don’t always end so well. Kangaroos can hit and kick very hard, so please folks, if you see some kangaroos, remember they’re not for petting!
Koalas are cute, and we see so many pictures of people holding them. But in many places in Australia, it is against the law to even touch them. Can you clarify that?
They are really quite cute, but the truth is, koalas are very sensitive creatures who can easily panic because of even small changes in their environment. They spend quite a lot of time eating, sleeping, and hanging onto tree trunks, so interaction with humans can cause them a lot of stress. Because of this, the government began to make laws against touching koalas, in the interest of animal protection, as well as public safety. So, if you see one in the wild, you shouldn’t approach it to pick it up or even touch it. If you want to hold a koala, you have to go to certain licensed zoos where animal experts make sure that the koalas selected for each session are in a good state for human contact and that they are handled for only a limited time and on a limited frequency of occasions.
So, we’ve talked about some cute animals. What about animals which aren’t so cute?
My favourite is a little creature called the Tasmanian devil. If you are out camping in Tasmania and come across one, the experience might scare you! Tasmanian devils hunt at night, so you won’t usually see them, but you may hear their loud cries when they are fighting or eating. The noise they make could wake the dead. Frightening! They are about the size of small dogs and look like rather large black rats. They also have a terrible smell! Their diet is mostly dead animals. Fortunately, despite their name, they are generally not violent towards people.
Australia also has some animals that many people have never heard of, for example, the duck-billed platypus. Is that some kind of bird?
Not at all. While it may lay eggs in a nest like a bird, it’s really a primitive mammal, with a unique biology. Its eggs hatch after about ten days, and then the baby platypus nurses from its mother like all other mammals. Its nose looks like a duck’s bill, and it has feet like a duck’s so it can dive under the water, but it’s covered in hair. Do you know what’s really strange about a platypus? The platypus doesn’t use its senses of sight or smell to find food. It has a capacity to find food in the water by using electrical sensors in its bill. There are only a small handful of animals in the world that can do that!

澳大利亚的神奇动物
我们今天(谈论)的主题是“澳大利亚独有的动物”,由野生动物专家吉姆·史密斯博士为我们解答问题。
澳大利亚有许多独特的动物,但哪一种是该国的象征呢?
那一定是袋鼠,因为它们广泛分布在澳大利亚各地。袋鼠是一种身体强壮,不得不在艰难的环境中生存的动物。此外,它无法后退,所以总是在向前移动,这表达了澳大利亚人作为个人和一个民族的力量与决心。小袋鼠出生时只有两克重,然后会自己爬到母亲的育儿袋(形似口袋)中,以保持安全和温暖。大约七八个月大之前,它们一直待在那个暂时受保护的环境里睡见和吃奶。过了这个阶段,它们就会出去试着用自己的双腿(行动)。学会跳跃以后,它们跟母亲共度的时间就逐渐变少了,(开始)学习独立。袋鼠可能看起来很可爱,不过遇到它们的结局并不总是那么美好。袋鼠踢打攻击的力度非常大,所以,各位如果看到袋鼠,请记住千万别去抚摸它们!
考拉很可爱,并且我们看到许多人们怀抱考拉的照片,但是在澳大利亚的很多地方,连碰一下考拉都是违法的。对此您能解释一下吗?
它们的确十分可爱,但事实是,考拉是极其敏感的生物,哪怕环境发生微小的变化,也容易引起它们的恐慌。它们花大量的时间吃饭、睡觉、抱着树干,因此与人类的互动会给它们带来很多压力。出于这点考虑,政府开始立法禁止触摸考拉,这是为了公共安全,也是为了保护考拉。因此,你如果在野外看到考拉,不应该靠近去抱它,甚至不应该触摸它。你如果想抱考拉的话,就必须去得到正式许可的动物园,那里的动物专家会确保每次挑选出来的考拉都处于良好状态,可以跟人类接触,同时确保它们(考拉)被人触摸的时间和次数只能在一定限度内。
好,我们说完一些可爱的动物,那些没这么可爱的动物又是什么样呢?
我最喜欢一种叫袋獾的小动物。你如果在塔斯马尼亚露营并遇到一只的话,那可能会吓到你!它们晚上捕食,所以你通常不会看到它们。但是它们打架或进食时,你可能会听到它们大声的叫喊。它们发出的声音可以吵醒死人。太吓人了!袋獾跟小狗体型相当,外表酷似巨大的黑老鼠。它们也会散发出难闻的气味!它们大多以动物尸体为食。幸运的是,尽管它们的名字(很吓人),但一般不会攻击人类。
澳大利亚还有一些很多人从未听说过的动物,比如鸭嘴兽,那是一种鸟吗?
完全不是。它尽管会跟鸟一样在巢里产卵,但实际上是一种原始的哺乳动物,具有独特的生理习性。它的卵大约十天孵化完成,然后小鸭嘴兽会跟所有其他的哺乳动物一样吃妈妈的奶。它的鼻子看起来像鸭嘴,脚像鸭掌,因此可以潜入水下(活动),但它浑身都是毛。你知道鸭嘴兽真正奇怪的地方是什么吗?它不靠视觉或嗅觉来觅食,而是拥有靠“鸭嘴”上的电传感器在水中觅食的能力,世界上只有很少的动物可以那样做!
