论文部分内容阅读
No. no. I’m not on a fairvtale movie set. The oddly shaped trees you see behind me aretotallv real！ And there are 400 0f these mvsterious pine trees. here in Poland. All of them havethe same northward 90-degree bend at the base of their limb l. and have grown to be tall andseemingly unhampered2 by their C shape curves 3.
不，不，我并不是在童话电影的场景里。你看到的我身后奇怪形状的树全部是真的！在波兰，有400棵这种神奇的松树。它们都有相同的在树干底部向北90度的弯曲，并且长得很高，似乎没有受它们C形曲线的影响。
Some experts believe that the trees grew like this because of some sort of damage to the tipand along some side branches. Well some people think there’s something more than nature atplay here because they are in nearly the same shape！ There are a lot of theories4 about this， likesnow storms. or even intentiona15 damage to make furniture. Even the locals here haven’t an ideaof how they came about. That’s probably because the local town was damaged during World WarI. And some people think that a witch or wizard had something to do with these trees. How elsedo you explain 22 rows of crooked trees surrounded by completely normal trees’？
有些專家认为，这些树长成这样，因为它们顶端和一些侧枝遭受过某种伤害。而有些人认为这里有非自然的因素起了作用，因为它们几乎有着相同的形状！关于这方面有很多推测，比如暴风雪，甚至是做家具造成的蓄意损伤。即使是当地人也不知道它们是怎么形成的。这可能是因为当地城镇在第一次世界大战期间遭到破坏。而有些人认为这些树与女巫或巫师有关。不然你怎样解释22排弯曲的树是被完全正常的树包围着的呢？
