Voice 2: For example, Mount Kilimanjaro rises over six thousand metres above the valleys of Tanzania, Africa.It is the tallest mountain in Africa.And, it is one of the only places where people in Africa can see snow!Writer Ernest Hemingway made this snow famous in his book "The Snows of Kilimanjaro".But the snow and ice of Mount Kilimanjaro are quickly disappearing.
聲音2：例如，乞力馬扎羅山高出非洲坦桑尼亞的山谷6000多米。它是非洲最高的山。而且，它是非洲僅有的能看到雪的地方之一！作家歐內斯特·海明威在他的書《乞力馬扎羅的雪》中使這里的雪聞名于世。但是乞力馬扎羅山的冰雪正在迅速消失。
Voice 1: Glaciers exist on every continent.They are like rivers of flowing ice.They cut their way through mountain valleys.Usually, during warmer seasons, glaciers will melt just a small amount.People living below the mountains use this water.It fills their rivers.It helps their crops grow. They drink it.But, in colder seasons the glaciers will build up again.Snow and rain on the mountains help glacier growth stay constant.But, mountain glaciers are shrinking at too fast a rate.People all over the world are watching it happen.
聲音1：各大洲都有冰川。它們就像流冰的河流。它們在山谷中開辟道路。通常，在溫暖的季節，冰川只會融化一小部分。住在山下的人們使用這些水。它填滿了他們的河流。它有助于他們的莊稼生長。他們喝它。但是，在寒冷的季節，冰川會再次堆積。山上的雪和雨有助于冰川持續生長。但是，高山冰川正在以很快的速度縮小。全世界的人都在看著它發生。
Voice 2: Professor Lonnie Thompson lives and works in Tanzania.He says that eighty-two percent of the glacial ice on Mount Kilimanjaro is gone.At the current rate, the glacier will be gone before the year 2020.
聲音2：朗尼·湯普森教授在坦桑尼亞生活和工作。他說，乞力馬扎羅山上82%的冰川已經消失。按照目前的速度，冰川將在2020年之前消失。
Voice 4: "Ice is very much a threshold system.If the temperature is minus one degree Celsius, it is perfectly happy.But, once you reach zero and it starts to melt, the ice will disappear much more rapidly.And there is evidence since 2000 that there have been lakes that have burst out the sides of the glaciers.So melting has taken place."
聲音4：“冰在很大程度上是一個閾值系統。如果溫度是零下一攝氏度，它就非常快樂。但是，一旦達到零度，冰開始融化，冰消失的速度就會快得多。有證據表明，自2000年以來，有湖泊從冰川的側面噴發出來。所以融化已經發生了。”
