species of river dolphin.一种新发现的淡水豚So little is known about it我们对它知之甚少that just finding it will be a challenge.光是找到它的踪迹都是一项挑战Their base for five weeks他们未来五周的驻地is a hut on the only bit of dry land

Sonar.在泛洪森林间探路穿梭Waterproof microphones防水麦克风allow the crew to eavesdrop on the dolphins,让摄制组得以窃听它们发出的声音and so follow them.并对进行追踪But that's easier said than done.但说来容易做起来却并非易事So, this is the clear path.这是一条畅通的路径Can you see it? There.你能看到吗那里It takes them a week他们花了一周时间to get their first glimpse of this new species,才得以初次窥见这个新物种and even then, it lasts less than a second.即便如此也仅仅持续了不到一秒钟There appears to be only one dolphin.这里似乎只有一只江豚And, frustratingly,而且令人沮丧的是it can pop up anywhere without warning.它会毫无征兆的出现在任何地方Been looking through the water and seeing bodies透过水面看去可以看到它的身影kind of appear out of the murk, and then disappear again.从浑浊的阴影中出现然后就又消失了Eventually, the dolphin leads the crew最终江豚把摄制组带到了to an open gap in the forest.森林中一片开阔区域We made it!

massage of the land解析-回复Massage of the land是什么意思？Massage of the land可以理解为“大地的按摩”或“大地的抚摸”。

在这个表达中，“massage”代表着一种对土地的照顾和对自然环境的关怀，强调需要对土地进行细致的研究和保护。

这个表达也暗示着人类与大地的紧密联系，需要用正确的方式去照顾和保护大地。

为什么需要对土地进行"massage"？由于人口的增长和经济的发展，人类对土地的需求不断增加，对土地的过度开发和不恰当的使用导致了大量的环境问题。

例如：土壤侵蚀、水资源短缺、生物多样性丧失等。

通过对土地进行“massage”，我们可以恢复土地的生态平衡，并减少环境问题的发生。

如何进行土地的“massage”？1. 研究土地：了解土地的特性和当前面临的问题非常重要。

通过科学的研究方法，我们可以深入了解土地的土壤质量、水资源分布、植被状况等因素，并找出土地所面临的问题。

2. 土地规划：基于对土地的研究结果，制定合适的土地规划措施，包括合理的土壤管理、水资源管理和植被保护等。

这些规划应该是可持续的，能够保证土地的长期利用和保护。

3. 土地保护：在实施土地规划的同时，需要采取积极的措施来保护土地。

这可以包括农业的可持续发展，尽量减少化学农药的使用，采用有机种植方式等；也可以包括森林保护，限制非法砍伐和森林火灾等。

4. 教育和宣传：加强对土地保护的宣传和教育，提高人们对土地保护的意识。

通过普及相关知识、组织环境保护活动等，加强公众对土地保护的重视。

土地“massage”的影响和意义是什么？进行土地的“massage”可以达到以下几方面的影响和意义：1. 环境保护：通过对土地进行“massage”，可以减少土地的退化和环境问题的发生。

保护土地意味着保护生态系统的健康，保护自然资源的可持续利用。

2. 可持续发展：土地的“massage”能够为社会和经济的可持续发展提供支持。

The Salt of the Earth
The Salt of the Earth社会中坚；民族精华；优秀份子
The Salt of the Earth这个成语，字面意思“世上的盐
盐是饮食中不可缺少的调味品，人体若缺盐，健康就会受到影响，出现种种疾病。

盐还有杀菌、解毒、消炎、除污等多种功用，它既是“百药之王”，又是工业之母，确是值得珍视的东西。

在许多民族的习俗汇总，盐被当作敬客的高贵礼品
The Salt of the Earth一词出自《圣经》，据《新约。

马太福音》（Matthew）第５长记载：耶稣对他的门徒说:"Ye are the salt of the earth:but if the salt have lost his savor,wherewith shall it be salted? " 在这里，salt用于转义，表示flavor；of the earth即of the world。

这是耶稣登山垂训论"福"，所讲福音结尾的话，他把门徒比做“世上的盐”，这是极高的称赞。

这句话在后世不断引用变成了一个典故性成语，转义为the most valuable members of sociey;the finest type of humanity;a person or a group of people having the best character 之意
eg: He does a lot of good jobs and is considered to be the salt of the world.。

微小如尘埃的地球英语The Earth, a Speck of DustAmidst the vast expanse of the universe, our planet Earth stands as a solitary oasis, a fragile haven teeming with life. Compared to the grandeur of the cosmos, our world may seem insignificant, a mere speck of dust adrift in the endless sea of celestial bodies. Yet, this small blue and green sphere harbors a remarkable diversity and complexity that defies its diminutive size.From the towering peaks of the Himalayas to the depths of the Mariana Trench, the Earth's surface is a tapestry of breathtaking landscapes, each a testament to the dynamic forces that have shaped our home over billions of years. The planet's intricate systems, driven by the delicate balance of land, water, and atmosphere, sustain a vast array of ecosystems, each one a delicate web of interdependent organisms, from the microscopic plankton to the majestic whales that roam the oceans.Despite its small stature, the Earth is a world of wonders, a place where the most complex and awe-inspiring phenomena can be witnessed. The shimmering auroras that dance across the night sky,the thunderous eruptions of volcanoes, and the mesmerizing patterns of cloud formations all serve as reminders of the extraordinary power and beauty that lies within our planet.Yet, this remarkable world is also fragile, vulnerable to the actions of the dominant species that call it home – us, the human beings. Our relentless pursuit of progress, our insatiable appetite for resources, and our disregard for the delicate balance of nature have all taken a toll on the Earth's delicate ecosystems. From the melting of glaciers to the deforestation of the Amazon, the signs of our impact are increasingly evident, and the consequences of our actions are becoming increasingly dire.As we gaze upon the Earth from the vast expanse of space, we are confronted with the sobering reality that our planet is but a tiny speck in the grand scheme of the universe. It is a humbling realization that serves as a reminder of our own insignificance in the cosmic scale, and yet, it also highlights the immense responsibility we bear as the stewards of this remarkable world.It is our duty, as the dominant species on this planet, to protect and preserve the delicate balance that sustains all life on Earth. We must learn to live in harmony with the natural world, to embrace the principles of sustainability, and to recognize that the well-being of our planet is inextricably linked to our own. Only by doing so can weensure that this fragile oasis, this speck of dust in the vastness of the universe, continues to thrive and support the incredible diversity of life that calls it home.In the grand tapestry of the cosmos, the Earth may seem insignificant, but it is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of life. It is a reminder that even the smallest of things can have a profound impact, and that the fate of our world rests in our hands. As we grapple with the challenges of our time, let us be guided by a deep respect and reverence for the Earth, and a steadfast commitment to safeguarding its future for generations to come.。
