英语听力：自然百科 冰冻星球 前往地球尽头—24

 End of the run. No! I’ve got him coming out, I just didn’t get him going back in. All right! Below the sea ice, the dive team is setting up an underwater studio. Using a rang of waterproof¹ lights and time-lapse cameras, they hope to capture the growth of bizarre underwater ice formations.

 

   Over the coming weeks, the dive team would go below the ice over 100 times to film the extraordinary secret world on the lower flanks of Mount Erebus. On top of the ice, the orca team has repositioned. Their new goal is to get underwater shots of the whales. They don’t dare to get in the water with orcas. Attaching a camera to a pole is a safer option, provided the whales aren’t put off by it. No-one is prepared for what happens next. Tell her what you just saw. The entire pod arrives. 

 

Eyeball to eyeball, this is about as close to killer² whales as it’s possible to get. By using multiple crews and cameras, the Frozen Planet team have been able to capture the full Erebus story, from the fire at its crater³ down to the whales that patrol its frozen shores.
