达沃斯英文简介

作者:stephen    文章来源:方向标英语网    点击数:    更新时间:2011-12-8 【我来说两句

达沃斯因为以其名字命名的世界经济论坛而闻名于世达沃斯风景如画,且拥有绝佳的滑雪道,一边享受下滑的快感,一边欣赏眼前掠过的美景,这样的享受有谁不向往?

达沃斯是最古老和最时尚的滑雪胜地之一,它是欧洲海拔最高的小镇,无愧于其滑雪绝佳之选的盛名。达沃斯山谷两侧分布着五个滑雪场,为那些来阿尔卑斯山的滑雪者提供了无尽变幻的地形。此外,这个多功能的冬季运动场还拥有数十英里的越野滑雪道,你可以用平底长雪橇滑雪、乘坐马拉雪橇或者在欧洲最大的室外溜冰场上溜冰。
One of the oldest and most fashionable ski resorts, Davos is the highest town in Europe and lives up to its reputation for excellent skiing. With five ski areas spread out on both sides of the valley, Davos offers the alpine skier an endless variety of terrain. In addition, this multifaceted winter sports complex offers miles of cross-country trails, tobogganing, sleigh rides and skating on Europe’s largest outdoor rink.
如今的达沃斯与阿瑟·柯南道尔爵士所知道的达沃斯没有多大差别。1894年,这位福尔摩斯之父与妻子路易丝·霍金斯坐在一起计划了一次滑雪探险之旅。那时,她刚刚从结核病中康复。他在她的床前陪了好几周,此时正准备开始探险,而这次探险即将使阿尔卑斯山滑降滑雪名扬天下。那时候,还没有区分滑降滑雪与越野滑雪,而柯南道尔则不得不应付被他称为“世界上最反复无常的”滑雪板。
It is a world little changed from the Davos that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle knew. In 1894, the creator of Holmes sat with his wife, Louise Hawkins, who was recovering from tuberculosis, and planned a skiing expedition. He had spent weeks by her bedside and was now about to set off on an adventure that would popularize downhill skiing in the Alps. In those days, there was no distinction between downhill and cross-country skiing, while Conan Doyle had to contend with skis he described as “the most capricious things upon earth”.
达沃斯是最早的几个大滑雪场之一,即便是今天,它的坡道就规模而言也鲜有滑雪场能够超越。其滑雪坡道提供的滑雪经历也近乎完美。滑雪场规模巨大,你在逗留期间每天都能去一个不同的地方。
Davos was one of the original mega resorts, with slopes on a scale that few resorts can better, even today. Its slopes provide a skiing experience that cannot be faulted. The resort’s huge size makes it possible to visit a different area every day during your stay.

越野滑雪
Cross-Country Skiing
对越野滑雪者们来说,在风景如画的环境中,75公里滑雪道绝对是物超所值的体验。更具挑战的是:Flüela山谷里的越野滑雪线路可是由国际滑雪联合会(FIS)鉴定评级的,并且还有2.5公里的线路是有照明的,以便夜间滑雪。如果你凑巧将狗狗带来了,就会发现在兰德瓦萨和兰德夸特地区的越野滑雪道上,滑雪时狗狗可以在身旁奔跑陪伴你。
There is a great deal on offer for cross-country skiers, with 75 km of trails around the picturesque surroundings. For the more competitive, there’s an International Ski Federation (FIS) graded cross country trail in the Flüela Valley, and there are also 2.5km of floodlit trails for evening ski trips. If you happen to have brought your dog with you, you’ll find cross country trails in the Landwasser and Landquart sector where you can ski with him or her running alongside you.
达沃斯是欧洲海拔最高的小镇。这里的滑雪坡每年的平均降雪量为5.4米,因此人工造雪只限于主要的滑雪道,仅占滑雪道的5%。
Davos is the highest town in Europe. The resort’s ski slopes receive an average of 5.4 metres of snow each year, so snowmaking is limited to the key pistes and covers only 5% of the runs.
