它（巨人之路）很神奇，但我认为非洲的维多利亚瀑布更壮观。
维多利亚瀑布（Victoria Falls）位于非洲赞比西河中游、赞比亚与津巴布韦接壤处,是世界上最壮观的瀑布之一。瀑布上的水雾形成的彩虹景色十分迷人，瀑布的声响可在数公里外听到。因此，当地人称之为“莫西奥图尼亚”，意为“霹雳之雾”。Though conj. 虽然，尽管
Though he has the least experience, he’s the best
teacher.他虽然经验少，却是最出色的老师。辨析：though 与although

意为“虽然”，两者大致相同，可换用，只是although比though更为正式

Though (Although) it was barely four o’clock，the lights were already on.
尽管才四点钟，灯已经亮了。2).用作副词

have opposed him.
尽管我反对过他，我还得说他是一个诚实的人。4).用于倒装
Though引导的部分让步状语从句可用部分倒桩的形式(注意:倒装后位于句首的名词之前不用冠词)，但although一般不这样用。
Poor though I am, I can afford it.我虽然穷，但这东西还是买得起的。5. But in my opinion, man-made wonders are more exciting than natural ones.

相对应 ones 代替前面提到的wonders。
