英语翻译
Crocodiles are among the largest reptiles (爬行动物) in the world.They have long,low bodies,short legs and long powerful tails.Their skins are tough and they have very sharp teeth.They live in tropical countries throughout the world and prefer a large area of shallow water,being especially happy in open swamps (沼泽).Their feet are designed to allow them to walk on soft ground.
One unusual feature of the crocodile is that its eyes and nostrils are higher than the rest of its head,which is extremely useful,as they like nothing better than to float dangerously in the water,with only their eyes and nose above the surface.It is often extremely difficult to see if a particular area of water contains any crocodiles.
Crocodiles are much more powerful than American and Chinese Alligators (鳄鱼).Thanks to their powerful jaws,they can eat a variety of small fishes and other animals,such as birds and turtles.Occasionally they attack larger animals and sometimes people,even large water buffalo (水牛).They have no chance of surviving when meeting with a crocodile.
The crocodile’s method of catching water buffalos is terrifying and very successful.Lying just below the surface of the water,it moves slowly towards its prey ,leaving the surface of the water almost undisturbed.
Suddenly the crocodile explodes out of the water and closes its jaws upon the nearest part of the water buffalo,usually one of its legs.The water buffalo falls.With the help of is powerful tail the crocodile then rolls over and over,causing the water buffalo to lose sense of direction.The victim is then dragged into deeper water,where it drowns and stops struggling.
Despite their great power,there are some species of crocodile which are endangered species,because they are hunted for their skins,which man makes into leather for shoes and handbags.There are laws forbidding crocodile hunting in many parts of the world,and scientists have begun programs to collect crocodile eggs and hatch them in machines.The baby crocodiles are then sent back into the wild.

鳄鱼是最大的爬行动物在世界上.它们的身体长而扁、四肢短小、尾巴长而有力,而且皮肤粗糙,牙齿锋利.全世界的热带国家都有它们的身影.它们尤其喜欢在大面积的浅水区和广阔的沼泽地,那里使他们格外愉快.它们脚的生长特点决定它们适合在松软的平面上行动.
鳄鱼的一个不寻常的特点是,它的眼睛和鼻孔都高于头部的其余部分,这对于它们喜欢以只把眼睛和鼻子露出水面的方式潜伏在水中这一特点是非常有利的.要想准确判断在某一个区域内到底有没有鳄鱼活动是极其困难的
这种鳄鱼要远强于美洲鳄和扬子鳄.由于其强大的上下颚,他们可以吃掉各种各样的如鸟类和海龟这样的小型鱼类和其他动物.有时他们也攻击大型动物,有时甚至是人,即使大型水牛也不能例外.而且水牛几乎没有幸存的可能.
鳄鱼捕捉水牛的方法是惊人而且高效的.潜伏在略低于水面的位置,慢慢地移向猎物,在离开水面时几乎不受干扰.
鳄鱼突然从水中冲出来,在水牛最接近水的部位收紧双颚,通常是某一条腿.水牛被扑倒.借助尾巴强大的力量,鳄鱼回不断翻滚,使水牛失去方向感.接着水牛会被拖入更深的水域,直至淹死并停止挣扎.
尽管它们有着强大的力量,也有一些品种的鳄鱼成为了濒危物种,因为人类为了它们的皮而猎取它们,皮革都被用来制成皮革 用于鞋和皮包的制造.世界上的许多国家和地区都已经制订了相关法律禁止鳄鱼捕杀,科学家们也已经开始收集鳄鱼卵并人工孵化,小鳄鱼还会被送回到大自然的怀抱中去.
放心吧 没错了
