华盛顿州英语版(双语阅读圣胡安群岛)(1)

the San Juan archipelago is made up of over 400 islands and rocks, some only visible during low tide, in the Salish Sea between Washington state and Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

圣胡安群岛位于华盛顿州和不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华岛之间的萨利希海,群岛由400多个岛屿和岩石组成,其中一些仅仅是在退潮的时候才露出海面。

No bridges connect the San Juans to the mainland, but four of the largest islands—San Juan, Orcas, Lopez, and Shaw—are accessible via the Washington State Ferries.

圣胡安群岛和大陆之间没有桥梁连接,但是4个比较大的岛屿圣胡安、逆戟鲸、洛佩兹和肖与华盛顿州之间可以通过渡轮抵达。

Tourists come to the islands to take in the stunning coastal views, catch a glimpse of resident orcas, and partake in many outdoor activities, such as sea kayaking, biking, and hiking.

游客来到岛上欣赏迷人的海岸景色,观赏这里的常住居民虎鲸,并参加许多户外活动,如海上皮划艇、骑自行车和徒步旅行。

One popular destination is the San Juan Island National Historical Park, which was established on September 9, 1966, to commemorate the Pig War.

群岛著名的一个旅游景点是圣胡安岛国家历史公园,该公园于 1966 年 9 月 9 日成立,以纪念英美之间那场“一头猪”的战争。

That strangely named confrontation between the US and the UK was sparked, in part, by the killing of a pig in 1859。

美国和英国之间那场名字怪异的对抗,部分原因是因为在 1859 年杀死一头猪而引发的。
