三、阅读理解
The longest river in the world is the Nile. It is 4,132 miles long. But the Nile is not the mightiest (最强大的) river. The Amazon is. The Amazon is also the second longest river in the world. It is 3,976 miles long. How long is that It is longer than a road going from New York City to San Francisco.
The Amazon is the mightiest for this reason. It has the greatest amount of water. More water runs out to sea than from the Nile, Mississippi, and Yangtze rivers combined. There’s a lot of fresh water! The force of its current (水流) is great too. The current can be seen 200 miles out of the sea.
Here are a few more facts. At its mouth, the Amazon is 90 miles wide. Even up the river, you can’t see the opposite bank. The river is also very deep (from 22 to 76 meters). During the rainy season, the river rises about 16 meters more.
What’s the most bloodthirsty (嗜杀的) fish in the world It’s not the shark. It’s the Amazon’s piranha. It is only about 10 cm to 20 cm long. It has sharp teeth. Thousands travel in a group. No animal can swim across the river. A 1,000-pound horse would become just bones (骨头) in three minutes if it meets piranha. Are you planning a trip to the Amazon Here’s a piece of advice. Leave your swimsuit at home!
