句子翻译

1. The team contends that these bear more than a passing resemblance to the networks of bacteria that live in hydrothermal vents-- towering, crenellated structures that form in the deep ocean above the boundaries between tectonic plates, where superheated mineral-laden water spurts up from beneath the seabed.

整个团队认为这些微生物和生存在深海热液喷口的细菌网有着惊人的相似-- 深海里各版块交界处形成了居高临下，层层叠叠的生物结构，在那里富含矿物质的高温水从海底喷涌而出。

2. Such a find is doubly intriguing because hydrothermal vents are seen as a plausible candidate for the cradle of life.

这一发现愈发有趣，因为深海热液喷口被看做是生命起源的最合理之地。

3. Although the sorts of bacteria apparently found by Dr Papineau and his colleagues are too complicated reveal much about the very earliest organism, the suggestion that hydrothermal vents have played host to life for so long is a strike in the theory's favour.

尽管Dr Papineau和他的同事们发现的各种各样的细菌显得太过复杂，因为没办法揭示太多有关于早起微生物，但是有关深海热液喷口很早以前就孕育生命这一观点的提出堪称是理论领域的重大突破。
