Travel of Sound声音的传播
原文:Sound is produced when things vibrate, like beating a drum or beating a guitar.Sound has to travel through solid, liquid or air to ears. When the sound is blocked by other things, it become less loud and clear. Sound travels better through liquid that through air. It travels best through solid.
翻译:声音是通过震动产生的,例如敲鼓或弹吉他 。声音通过固体、液体或空气传入耳朵 。当声音被其他物质阻挡时,声音会变小、变得不清晰 。声音在液体中传播比在气体中传播快,在固体中传播最快 。
讲解:travel除了指旅行,也可以表示传播,例如travel of sound声音的传播, travel of light光的传播 。第一句sound is produced when things vibrate是一个被动句,由be produced构成被动结构;这句话中,vibrate的意思是震动 。这段中三个关键词为solid固体,liquid液体和air空气 。
