Time for the shoutout.
“大喊”時間到了。
Which of these landmarks would you find in Salisbury Plain?
在索爾茲伯里平原你會發現哪個地標建筑？
If you think you know it, shout it out. Is it: (a), Ayers Rock, (b), Half Dome, (c), Giant`s Causeway, or (d), Stonehenge?
如果你以為你知道，就大聲喊出來。是：（a）艾爾斯巨石（b）半圓頂（c）巨人堤道（d）巨石陣？
You`ve got three seconds. Go!
你有三秒鐘。開始吧！
Salisbury Plain is outside of Salisbury, England, and that`s the home of Stonehenge. That`s your answer and that`s your shoutout.
索爾茲伯里平原位于英格蘭外的索爾茲伯里，巨車陣坐落于此。這就是你的答案，你的大喊。
It`s one of those most famous monuments in the world. Archaeologists believe Stonehenge was built between the years 3000 and 1520 B.C. It appears to have been a cemetery at one point, though no one knows for sure who built Stonehenge and why.
巨石陣世界上最著名的紀遺跡之一。考古學家認為，巨車陣始建于公元前3000年到1520年。人們似乎一度認為巨石陣是一個墓地，盡管沒人確切知道誰建造了它以及為什么建造它。
Theories have described it as a temple, a meeting place, a monument for predicting eclipses. Those theories are being tested and new ones born thanks to a remarkable find not far away.
理論上人們將它描述成一個寺廟，一個會議場所，一個預測日食的遺跡。這些理論正在被驗證，新的理論隨著不遠處的驚人發現而產生。
It takes your breath away. People from all over travel to see Stonehenge. Its construction and its purpose remaining mystery, thousands of years old.
巨石陣美的讓你無法呼吸。人們從各地趕來游覽巨石陣。幾千年來其建造和目的一直是個迷。
And now, we`re learning that just two miles away from here, a discovery so extraordinary experts are calling it archaeology on steroids.
現在，在距巨石陣2英里的地方，有一個令人驚奇的發現，專家稱之為“開掛的”古跡。
Scientists used ground-penetrating radar technology to make the discovery. They found at least 40 stone slabs in spaces for at least 160 more.
科學家們采用探地雷達技術進行探測。他們至少發現40塊石板，其空間足以容納160塊。
It`s incredible to be here, knowing that beneath my feet, the remnants of an ancient monument 15 times the size of Stonehenge.
在我腳下有一座比巨石陣還大15倍的古跡，真是太不可思議了。
The National Trust`s Nick Snashall says the new find rewrites the history of the area.
國民托管組織的尼克斯納歇爾表示，新的發現將改寫該區域的歷史。
