2、（双语科普）学英语，看世界：“乌尤尼盐沼”

Salar De Uyuni (Bolivia)

乌尤尼盐沼（玻利维亚）

The Salar De Uyuni is the world's largest salt flat.

乌尤尼盐沼是世界上最大的盐沼。

Located in Southwest Bolivia, it covers an area of 4,086 square miles and was formed when several prehistoric（史前的） lakes dried up.

它位于玻利维亚西南地区，占地4086平方英里，形成于几处干涸的史前湖泊。

This has resulted in a salt crust（外壳） that is several feet thick, and that is incredibly flat（平坦）.

它产生了几英尺厚的盐结壳，平坦光滑得难以置信。

The large expanse of（大面积） glistening（闪亮的） white salt provides views that you won't see anywhere else in the world, and is a truly unique experience.

大面积亮晶晶的洁白盐粒，形成了你在世界其它地方都看不到的景观，真的是一种很独特的体验。

While during the dry season these flats are a wonder to witness, the Salar De Uyuni really comes into its own during the rainy season in February.

旱季的盐滩就已是奇观，而让乌尤尼盐沼真正得名的却是二月雨季的时候。

With a thin cover of water, the flats perfectly reflect the sky above, and it becomes impossible to determine where the sky ends and where the land begins.

这些盐滩表面被一层浅水覆盖着，完美地反射了上方的天空，你就无从辨识哪里是天空的尽头，哪里是大地的开始。

It's really a once in a lifetime opportunity to get some incredible images, and is absolutely worth the long trip to get there.

去那儿欣赏美丽的景象真的是一个千载难逢的机会，绝对值得你的长途跋涉。
