Why does Tazieff risk his life like this?
Haroun Tazieff, the Polish scientist, has spent his lifetime studying active volcanoes and deep caves in all parts of the world.
波兰科学家哈罗恩.塔捷耶夫花了毕生的精力来研究世界各地的活火山和深洞。
In 1948, he went to Lake Kivu in the Congo to observe a new volcano which he later named Kituro.
1948年他去了刚果的基伍湖,对一座后来被他命名为基图罗的新火山进行观察。
Tazieff was able to set up his camp very close to the volcano while it was erupting violently.
当火山正在猛烈地喷发时,塔捷耶夫有办法把帐篷搭在离它非常近的地方。
Though he managed to take a number of brilliant photographs, he could not stay near the volcano for very long.

He noticed that a river of liquid rock was coming towards him.
他发现有一股岩浆正向他流过来,
It threatened to surround him completely, but Tazieff managed to escape just in time.
眼看就要将他团团围住,但塔捷耶夫还是设法及时逃离了。
He waited until the volcano became quiet and he was able to return two days later.
他等到火山平静下来,两天以后又返回去。
This time, he managed to climb into the mouth of Kituro so that he could take photographs and measure temperatures.
这次他设法爬进了基图罗火山口,以便能拍摄照片和测试温度。
