本日口譯文章：天下上最高最長玻璃橋將設環球最高蹦極台
這個月初，中國湖南省官偏向外界展現了大概成為天下上又一創舉——天下最長、最高的玻璃橋。建成以後，這座全長430米(1214英尺)，6米寬的大橋將銜接高出張家界大峽谷兩個峰頂。
對付愛好尋求刺激的人來講，蹦極台也值得等待——這並非通俗的蹦極台，而是環球最高的!蹦極台將設在橋中心，著落的間隔有60米(197英尺)，比AJ Hackett從中國澳門塔上跳下的誰人還要高。
計劃此橋的以色列渡堂海修建公司表現，大橋將於十月份對外開放，可同時容納800人!渡堂海還預言，除成為新的旅行天堂以外，大橋還能用作時尚宣布會的T台。
此橋並不是中國首例令民氣跳的玻璃修建。歲首年月，重慶龍港國度地質公園還開放了天下最長的玻璃廊橋。這個玻璃廊橋代價560萬美元，懸扣在海拔1010米(3314英尺)的峭壁之巔，絕妙景觀，一覽無余。
張家界天門山玻璃棧道會加倍刺激。這條3英尺寬，2.5英尺厚的棧道圍繞在海拔4700英尺的山間，玩的便是心跳!
除玻璃修建外，張家界碩大的武陵源景致區另有一個占地56平方公裏的公園值得一提，那就卡梅隆導演風行環球的片子《阿凡達》中竹苞松茂的潘多拉星的取景地。

World's Longest And Highest Glass-Bottom Bridge Promises Planet's Highest Bungee Jump!
Earlier this month, the officials of China's Hunan Province revealed what they believe will be a new "Wonder of the World" - the planet's longest and highest glass-bottom bridge. When complete, the 430m (1,214 ft) long and 6m wide structure will connect the two summits across the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon.
For those seeking an extra adrenaline rush there will also be a bungee jump - and not just any ordinary one, but the world's highest! Situated in the middle of the bridge it promises a leap that is a whopping 60m (197 ft) higher than the current record holder, the AJ Hackett bungee jump from China's Macau Tower.
The Israeli architectural firm of Haim Dotan that designed the impressive structure asserts that the bridge which will open to the public in October, will be able to accommodate up to 800 people at a time! In addition to being a popular tourist destination, Dotan also envisions it being used as a catwalk for fashion shows.
This is not the first heart-stopping glass structure constructed in China. Earlier this year, the Longgang National Geological Park in Chongqing,unveiled the world's longest glass-bottomed cantilever skywalk. The $5.6 million USD structure that dangles precariously on the edge of a cliff stretches out an astounding 1,010 m (3,314 ft), offering stunning views to those that dare to walk on thin air!
Even more terrifying is the Tianmenshan crystal glass skywalk in Zhangjiajie. The 3ft wide 2.5-inch thick walkway that has runs alongside the edge of the mountain sits 4,700 ft above sea level and is defintely not for the faint hearted!
Besides the glass structures, Zhangjiajie, a 56 square-kilometer designated tourist park inside the bigger Wulingyuan Scenic Area has one more claim to fame. It was the inspiration for the breathtaking planet of Pandora in James Cameron's 2009 blockbuster film, Avatar!
