Qinghai: Our National Park
《青海:我们的国家公园》
Behind the beautiful documentary① images, the film not only truly reproduces② the authenticity of the natural ecosystem and the integrity of the ecological③ landscape maintained by the Sanjiangyuan and Qilian Mountain National Park, but also explores the relationship between the ecological environment and human development, and deeply ponders④ the current development.
影片在优美的纪实影像背后,不仅真实再现了三江源、祁连山国家公园所维护的自然生态系统的真实性和生态景观的完整性,也探讨了生态环境与人类发展的关系,并对当下的发展进行了深刻思考。
America's National Parks 《美国国家公园》
America's National Parks takes viewers on an extraordinary venture⑤ across worldfamous and lesserknown national parks to reveal the diversity and the wonders of the United States. The audience will experience North America's natural wonders with its iconic⑥wildlife as you have never seen them before. Strong storytelling lets the audience discover the fascinating interactions in wild habitats they thought they were familiar with.

Jungle Cruise 《丛林奇航》
Disney's Jungle Cruise is based on the theme park attraction of the same name, but the movie also takes from reallife historical figures and concepts. Jungle Cruise follows a British scientist, her brother, and a jungle cruise skipper⑦ as they embark on an adventure down the Amazon River in search of the mythologised Tears of the Moon.
迪士尼的《丛林奇航》是根据同名主题公园景点改编的,但这部电影也借鉴了现实生活中的历史人物和概念。《丛林奇航》讲述了一位英国科学家、她的兄弟和一位丛林游轮船长沿着亚马孙河展开冒险,寻找神话中的“月亮之泪”。

Ⅲ.佳句赏析关(先赏后译)
1.I wake up to the sound of the wind buffeting the cloth of my tent.
[赏析] buffeting the cloth of my tent是现在分词短语充当 the wind 的后置定语。the wind与动词 buffet是逻辑上的主谓关系,故使用现在分词。buffeting the cloth of my tent相当于定语从句 which/that buffets the cloth of my tent。
[翻译]__风噼里啪啦地拍打着我的帐篷的布,我在这声响中醒来。__
2.Even though the sun is brightly shining, telling whether it is morning or night is impossible.
[赏析] Even though引导让步状语从句, 主句主语为动名词短语telling whether it is morning or night,主语中包含whether引导的宾语从句。
[翻译]__即使阳光明媚,也无法分辨是早上还是晚上。__
3.If today is anything like yesterday, it will be full of sweat and hard work as I hike over this difficult land to my destination on the other side of the valley.
[赏析] 本句中If(如果)引导条件状语从句,as (因为)引导原因状语从句。
[翻译]__如果今天和昨天差不多,那将会充满汗水和艰辛,因为我要徒步跨越这片地形艰险的土地,到达山谷另一端的目的地。__
4.It is hoped that Sarek National Park will always remain as it is, natural and beautiful.
[赏析] “It is hoped that...”意为“人们希望……”, It 作形式主语,that从句为真正的主语; “as it is” 意为 “照原样”,as 为连词,意为“正如,依照”。
[翻译]__人们希望萨勒克国家公园永远保持原样,自然而美丽。__

原文
SAREK NATIONAL PARK
—EUROPE'S HIDDEN NATURAL TREASURE
1 A_Summer_Where_the_Sun_Never_Sleeps
I wake up to the sound of the wind buffeting① the cloth② of my tent. Even though the sun is brightly shining, telling whether it is morning or night is impossible. I'm above the Arctic Circle, where in summer the sun never sets. Checking my watch, I see that it is 7:30 a.m. I leave my tent and walk over to the mountain edge③. Spreading out before me, branches of the Rapa River flow through the valley④ below. I'm in the remote far north of Sweden in Sarek National Park, a place with no roads or towns.
2 A_Land_of_Mountains_and_Ice
Sarek's mountains used to⑤ be covered by vast⑥ sheets of ice. Around 9,000 years ago, this ice melted, leaving behind about 100 glaciers⑦. Soon after, reindeer⑧ began to arrive. Following the reindeer were the Sami people, who made this territory⑨ their home. Getting here is quite difficult, so apart from⑩ the Sami very few people have ever seen Sarek. In 1909, Sarek was made a national park in order to keep the land in its natural state. Though the Sami are allowed to continue their traditional way of life in the park, no one else can live here, and all new development is banned⑪ within park boundaries⑫. At the far side of the valley, an ancient Sami cottage⑬ is visible⑭. Close by, there are a few reindeer feeding on⑮grass.
3 Man_at_Peace_with_Nature
For hundreds of years, looking after reindeer was a way of life for the Sami. They used the reindeer's meat for food, their bones for tools, and their skin for making clothes and tents. Since reindeer were always on the move⑯, the Sami would pick up⑰their tents and accompany⑱them.
Today, most Sami have houses in villages near Sarek and live a modern life just like their neighbours. But every spring, a small number of Sami still follow their reindeer into the valleys of Sarek, living in tents or old cottages and enjoying their traditions. I am not a Sami, but in Sarek I've adopted⑲ some of their habits. For example, this morning my breakfast is flat bread warmed over a fire, dried reindeer meat, and some sweet and sour⑳ berries that I found growing near my tent.
4 A_Land_of_Adventure
After breakfast, I pack my bag and set out㉑ again. Since I must carry all of my food and supplies with me, my bag weighs about 30 kilograms. If today is anything like yesterday, it will be full of sweat and hard work as I hike over this difficult land to my destination on the other side of the valley. However, I cannot complain. Being in such a beautiful and wild place makes me feel blessed㉒ to be alive. Here I am, alone under this broad sky, breathing the fresh air, and enjoying this great adventure. What could be better?
译文
萨勒克国家公园
——欧洲隐藏的自然宝藏
1 一个太阳永不落的夏天
风噼里啪啦地拍打着我的帐篷的布,我在这声响中醒来。即使阳光明媚,也无法分辨是早上还是晚上。我在北极圈上方,在那里夏天太阳永不落山。我看了看手表,发现已经是早上7:30。我离开帐篷,走到山边。拉帕河的支流在我面前展开,流经下面的山谷。我身处瑞典北端偏远的萨勒克国家公园,一个既没有公路也没有城镇的地方。
2 一片冰天雪地
萨勒克的山脉曾经被巨大的冰层覆盖。大约在9 000年前,这些冰融化了,留下了大约100个冰川。不久之后,驯鹿开始来到这里。在驯鹿之后来的是萨米人,他们在这片土地上安家落户。到达这里相当困难,因此除了萨米人,很少有人见过萨勒克。1909年,萨勒克被列为国家公园,以保持该土地的自然状态。虽然萨米人被允许在公园里继续他们传统的生活方式,但其他人不可以在这里生活,公园范围内的一切新开发项目都被禁止了。在山谷的另一边,可以看到一座古老的萨米人小屋。附近,有几只驯鹿在吃草。
3 人类与自然和谐相处
数百年来,照顾驯鹿一直是萨米人的生活方式。他们用驯鹿肉做食物,用鹿骨做工具,用鹿皮做衣服和帐篷。由于驯鹿总在移动,萨米人会收拾他们的帐篷并一路陪伴它们。
如今,大多数萨米人在萨勒克附近的村庄有房子,并且与他们的邻居一样过着现代化的生活。但每年春天,仍有少数萨米人跟随他们的驯鹿进入萨勒克山谷,住在帐篷或旧村舍里,享受他们的传统。我不是萨米人,但在萨勒克,我已经采纳了他们的一些习惯。例如:今天早上,我的早餐是在火上烤的扁面包,驯鹿肉干,还有一些我找到的长在我帐篷附近的酸甜浆果。
4 冒险之地
早餐过后,我收拾行李,再次出发。由于我必须随身携带所有的食物和用品,我的包大概有30千克重。如果今天和昨天差不多,那将会充满汗水和艰辛,因为我要徒步跨越这片地形艰险的土地,到达山谷另一端的目的地。但是,我不能抱怨。身处这样一个美丽而荒凉的地方,我感到活着是幸运的。我独自一人在这广阔的天空下,呼吸着新鲜的空气,享受着这伟大的冒险。还有什么比这更好的呢?
