PTE老托-参观国家公园

       Welcome to Everglades National Park.

　　欢迎来到Everglades国家公园

　　The Everglades is a watery plain covered with saw grass that's home to numerous species of plants and wildlife.

　　Everglades是一个被锯齿草覆盖着的湿润的平原，是许多种植物和野生动植物的故乡。

　　At one and a half million acres, it's too big to see it all today, but this tour will offer you a good sampling.

　　因为150万英亩(大小)，它太大了而不能今天都看完，但是这次旅行将会提供你一个好的样本。

　　Our tour bus will stop first at Taylor Slough.

　　我们的旅游巴士将首先停在Taylor Slough

　　This is a good place to start because it's home to many of the plants and animals typically associated with the Everglades.

　　这是一个开始的好地方，因为这里是许多同Everglades有关系的动植物的故乡。

　　You'll see many exotic birds， and, of course, our world famous alligators.

　　你将会见到许多奇异的鸟类，当然还有，我们世界闻名的短吻鳄

　　Don't worry, there's a boardwalk that goes across the marsh, so you can look down at the animals in the water from a safe distance.

　　不用担心，有一条木板路穿过沼泽，所以你可以从一个安全的距离向下看动物。

　　The boardwalk is high enough to give you a great view of the saw grass prairie.

　　木板路高到足以给你一个很棒的锯齿草大草原的景观。

　　From there we'll head to some other marshy and even jungle like areas that feature wonderful tropical plant life.

　　从那里我们将去向另一些湿地乃至丛林似的以美好的热带丛林植物为特色的区域

　　For those of you who'd like a closer view of the saw grass prairie, you might consider renting a canoe sometime during your visit here.

　　对于你们谁喜欢锯齿草大草原近距离景观的，你们应该考虑在你们参观的期间租一个独木舟

　　However, don't do this unless you have a very good sense of direction and can negotiate your way through tall grass.

　　然而，别这么做，除非你有非常好的方向感，并且能够穿过长草找到你的路

　　We'd hate to have to come looking for you.

　　我们痛恨不得不来寻找你

　　You have the good fortune of being here in the winter—the best time of year to visit.

　　你们冬季在这里是很幸运的—一年中最好的时间来游览

　　During the spring and summer, the mosquitoes will just about to eat you alive!

　　在春夏期间，蚊子将会活生生的吃了你。

　　Right now they're not so bothersome, but you'll still want to use an insect repellent.

　　现在它们还没那么令人讨厌，但是你将仍然会想要使用驱虫剂的
