2018年商务英语初级口语测试：造雨师

Filming in East Africa

would take the team on both a physical and emotional journey

through the extremes of this landscape.

These are the legendary Mountains of the Moon,

towering over 5,000 metres into the African sky.

Just miles from the equator,

they’re the highest mountain range on the continent and home to the largest glacier in Africa.

To reach the summits, the team had to travel on foot,

the same way as climbers did when they first reached the top just over 100 years ago.

It would take more than two weeks, climbing over 3,000 metres from the valleys below.

Six days into their trek, still well below the summits,

the team come to realise why Rwenzori,the mountains’ other name,

means "The rain makers".

在东非进行拍摄

对摄制组的身体和精神都是极大的考验

去体验这片大地上的极致环境

眼前便是具有传奇色彩的月亮山

高达5000米的山峰巍峨耸立直入云霄

月亮山距赤道只有几英里

是非洲大陆最高的山脉

拥有全非洲面积最广大的冰川

要登上山顶摄制组必须徒步攀登

就像一百年前第一批登上山顶的

攀登者们一样

从下面的山谷出发需要2周时间

历经超过3000米的攀爬距离

6天的努力攀爬之后山顶依旧远在天边

摄制组终于明白为什么"鲁文佐里"

也就是月亮山的另一个名字

是"造雨师"的意思
