Venice, Italy 意大利威尼斯
The “Floating City” may not float for much longer as experts have warned that Venice could sink in less than a century. As it was built on a muddy lagoon with inadequate foundations, Venice is also known to suffer from subsidence.
“漂浮之城”威尼斯或许漂浮不了多久了,专家提醒说,威尼斯或将在100年内沉没。威尼斯建在泥泞的泻湖上,根基不牢,因此饱受下沉的困扰。
subsidence [səb'saɪd(ə)ns; 'sʌbsɪd(ə)ns]:n.下沉;沉淀;陷没
Since 1897, the sea level in Venice has risen by 30 centimeters, and the Mediterranean will rise by up to 1.4 meters before 2100, according to scientists from Italy and France.
自1897年以来,威尼斯的水平面上涨了30厘米。据意大利和法国的科学家所说,地中海海平面在2100年之前还将上涨1.4米。
Old City of Jerusalem, Israel 以色列耶路撒冷旧城
Regarded as a holy city in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, Jerusalem regularly receives record-breaking numbers of tourists who are on pilgrimages. That's a lot of pressure for a site already straining under a significant population and a lack of maintenance.
耶路撒冷是犹太教、基督教和伊斯兰教的圣城,每年有创纪录的游客前来朝圣。对一座已经饱受人口众多和缺乏维护之苦的旧城来说,显然压力山大。
