《钱江涌潮》
TheTidalBoreoftheQiantangRiver

浙江钱塘江河口的涌潮，自古蔚为天下奇观。它是大自然赋予的神奇景象。由于天体引力和地球离心作用，每逢农历初一至初五，十五至三十，
天体引潮力特别强，易形成大潮；农历八月十八日的大潮尤为壮观。而杭州湾喇叭口的地形特殊，海湾水域广阔，但河口狭窄，加之河床泥沙
阻挡，易使潮流能量集中，江潮迅速猛涨，流速加快，涌潮现象频频发生。钱江涌潮，一年四季，周而复始。全年共有120天的“观潮日”。The

每天有日、夜两潮，尤以秋潮为最佳。每当大潮来时，开始远处呈现一条白线，声如闷雷。数分钟之后，白线向前推移；继而巨浪汹涌澎湃，
如万马奔腾，潮声震天动地，真有翻江倒海之势，最高潮差8.93米。钱塘江涌潮举世无双，其奇、其高可与亚马逊河媲美，被誉为“世界八大奇

明末以来，随着江河变化，钱塘江涌潮向下推移，海宁的盐官镇成了观潮的最佳胜地。涌潮每到占鳌塔时，便成一字形，故名“一线潮”。Because

涌潮到达眼前时，有万马奔腾之势、雷霆万钧之力，势不可挡，时而形成“V字潮”，时而成“S形潮”，时而形成“W形潮”。Thetidalwavesseemto

涌潮经过长途奔袭，中途受到各种障碍物的阻挡，到达距钱塘江口50多公里的六和塔时，已支离破碎，形成多头、多层、多叠的潮水，给人以
“后浪推前浪”之感。Havingtraveledalongdistance,alborefinallyreachestheSixHarmoniesPagoda
