原文及翻譯
Besides being beautiful, Niagara Falls is also very useful. Their falling water is the power behind several of the largest hydroelectric stations in the world. Much of the electric power used in this part of North America comes from Niagara Falls. In order to harness this power, half of the flow of water is channeled away from the falls during the night and during the non-tourist season.
尼亞加拉瀑布不僅美麗,而且用途廣泛。瀑布的水流是世界上幾座最大水電站的動力。北美這部分地區(qū)使用的大部分電力都來自尼亞加拉瀑布。為了利用這種電力,在夜間和非旅游季節(jié),一半的水流被引離瀑布。
Probably most visitors don't notice the difference. Niagara has attracted many kinds of people over the years. Businessmen have come to profit from the tourists. Daredevils have come to make a name for themselves; some have gone over the falls in a barrel, while others have walked above the falls on a tight rope.
可能大多數(shù)游客都沒有注意到其中的差別。多年來,尼亞加拉吸引了各種各樣的人。商人來這里是為了從游客身上獲利。冒險者來這里是為了出名;有些人乘著桶越過瀑布,而另一些人則走在瀑布上方的鋼絲繩上。
Poets and artists have visited here to capture its beauty. Lovers have come to gaze on its romantic scenery. All of these and many others have helped to make Niagara Falls world famous.
詩人和藝術(shù)家來到這里捕捉它的美麗。戀人們來這里凝視它的浪漫風(fēng)景。所有這些以及其他許多人都幫助尼亞加拉瀑布聞名于世。
