What's so great about diving then?For John 8cullion it's the thrill of exploring a whole new world beyond the reach of non-divers.In fact,once you try it you will never see things in quite the same way again.How deep did you go?Were there any sharks?Did you find any treasure?These are the questions normally asked of divers returning from a foray under water.
潜水究竟有什么好处?对于约翰·斯库林而言，潜水是一项能够使人感到兴奋与剌激的运动，那是一个全新的世界，是一个不懂得潜水的人永远也无法探究的世界。事实上，能够潜到多深的水下?会不会遭遇鳖鱼?会不会找到金银财宝?尝试过潜水的人往往都会被问到这些问题。
潜水的好处
The answers:divers don't go really deep;sharks are not the dangerous and indiscriminate predators portrayed by the media;and it is not necessary to bring back treasure in order for a dive to be successful.So why go diving?Transport yourself for a moment into outer space and look back at where you came from.You were on a tiny speck of land sticking up out of the vast oceans of a blue planet.The earth may have mountains and valleys,vast deserts and pockets of high-density habitation,but to the fresh eyes of an intergalactic traveler these are mainly located under water.
答案是:潜水者其实潜得并不深，鳖鱼也并非是像媒体所宣传的那么可怕的、争夺易攻击的食肉动物;而潜水也并不见得能够使人找到什么金银财宝。既然如此，我们为什么还要去潜水呢?如果你能够到太空上停留片刻，那么当你遥望自己的家就会发觉，那不过是在一颗蓝色星球的大海上突起的一块小陆地而已。地球上拥有山脉、峡谷、沙漠和小片的高密度居住区，不过，置身于银河的人却会感觉这些区域大部分都位于水下。
Next time you are in an airplane,look down at the clouds.You know there is plenty going on below them.Next time you look at the sea,put yourself beyond what happens on and above its surface.There is as much going on under it as there is below the clouds.
下次在你乘坐飞机时，请看看窗外的云，你会知道云彩下面还藏有许多"内容下次，当你站在海边，不要仅仅去观望海面上所发生的事情，事实上，正如云彩下面拥有一个多彩的世界一样，海面下也存在着一个神奇的世界。
Divers don't really go very deep,but the apparatus(and the skill to use it)gives us a foothold in this secret world,and most of its occupants will come up to visit us in the shallows.
