the Dead Sea

Despite its name, the Dead Sea does harbour life.(尽管名字有个“死”字，死海中却的确有生命。)

The Dead Sea scrolls were found by a shepherd pursuing a stray goat into a cave.(《死海古卷》是一个牧羊人在一个山洞里追赶一只迷路的山羊时发现的。)

Now the Dead Sea is actually dying.(现在死海确实正在消亡。)

It's nearly the opposite of the Dead Sea experience above.(在这里看落日的经历会在和死海的感受完全相反。)

Surrounded by desert ridges interspersed with lush oases, the Dead Sea presents a visually stunning tableau.(周围是沙漠的山脊，点缀着郁郁葱葱的绿洲，从视觉来说，死海景象极为壮观。)

Then the naval kid spoke: "And do you know the Dead Sea?"(年轻的海军说：“那你知道死海么？”)

Bacterial MATS or biofilms have never been found in the Dead Sea before.(这些细菌和生物膜以前从未在死海被发现过。)

In contrast, nothing lives in the Dead Sea because, with no outflow, the lake has stagnated.(相反，死海里没有生命，因为没有水流出去，这个湖是停滞不动的。)

Floating like a cork in the salty water of the Dead Sea is a memorable experience.(像木塞一样地漂浮在死海的盐水里，这绝对是一个令人难忘的经历。)

At 430 meters below sea level, the Dead Sea is Earth's lowest point on land.(死海位于海平面以下430米，是地球陆地上的最低点。)
