More than any other place on China's coastline, Inner Deep Bay demonstrates that, with help, resilient nature can still thrive, even when boxed in and overshadowed by towering cities like Shenzhen.
比起中国海岸线上的其他地方,后海湾内湾更能证明在帮助之下,即使被包围在像深圳这样高楼环立的城市的阴影之中依然可自我调节的自然仍旧可以生存。
Another successful example of man's intervention on behalf of nature can be glimpsed in the waters around Lantau Island. While egrets make the most of an easy meal, other creatures have their eye on the fishermen's catch.
人类保护自然的另一个成功范例就是大屿山。在白鹭饱餐之时,其他的生物则盯上了渔民的成果。
