介绍大自然神秘现象,属于说明文的范畴。写未解之谜类的文章,不能凭空杜撰,对未解之谜的现象描述要有确切来源。有些现象是真实存在的,比如纳斯卡线条,描述时要符合事实情况;有些则是来自传说和报道,描述时要介绍传说和报道的内容。对未解之谜的推测和解释也必须要有科学依据。写作时可按如下步骤进行:
1.简单介绍奇异现象或事物及其发生的地点;
2.详细叙述该奇异现象或事物的特征和神秘之处;
3.描述对此所做的科学探索,介绍科学推测。(根据情况,也可以换成自己的感受、心得、评价等。)
写作时,时态多用一般现在时,但在介绍相关的探索时应注意时态的变换。灵活运用情态动词来准确地描述和推测,如could be、may be、might have been等。

The Bermuda Triangle was one of the greatest unexplained phenomena of the 20th century, which was responsible for the disappearance of countless airplanes and boats in the ocean among Florida, San Juan and Bermuda.

However, scientists say many incidents remain unexplained to this day, despite considerable investigation.
