sight简单

Perhaps most importantly, the images provided documentary evidence of the park’s sights that later made its way to government officials.

也许最重要的是，这些图像为公园的景观提供了文献证据，这些证据后来送到了政府官员手中。

Throughout the trip, Jackson juggled multiple cameras and plate sizes using the “collodion process” that required him to coat the plates with a chemical mixture, then expose them and develop the resulting images with a portable darkroom. The crude technique required educated guesses on exposure times, and involved heavy, awkward equipment — several men had to assist in its transportation. Despite these challenges, Jackson captured dozens of striking photos, ranging from majestic images like his now-famous snapshot of Old Faithful, to casual portraits of expedition members at the camp. While veterans of previous expeditions wrote at length about stunning trail sights, these vivid photographs were another thing entirely.

在整个旅途中，杰克逊使用“火棉胶工艺”同时摆弄多台相机和多种尺寸的底片，这种工艺要求他先给底片涂上一层化学混合物，然后曝光，再用便携式暗室冲洗出影像。这种简陋的技术需要凭经验推测曝光时间，而且所用设备笨重难使——需要好几个人协助搬运。尽管困难重重，杰克逊还是拍下了几十张引人注目的照片，从他那张如今已闻名于世的老忠实泉快照这样的壮丽画面，到营地里考察队员的随意肖像，不一而足。以往考察的老手们曾长篇累牍地描写沿途的壮丽景色，而这些生动的照片则完全是另一回事。

A flashing set of healthy and clean, regular “pearly whites” was a rare sight in Victorian society, the preserve of the super-rich (and even then, dental hygiene was not guaranteed).

一口闪亮、健康洁净、整齐的“珍珠白”牙齿在维多利亚时代的社会中十分罕见，是超级富豪的专利（即便如此，牙齿卫生也无法保证）。

If you’ve explored the area before, keep an eye out for familiar sights — you may be [surprised] how quickly identifying a distinctive rock or tree can restore your bearings.

如果你以前探索过这片区域，就留意熟悉的景物——你可能会惊讶地发现，认出一块特别的岩石或一棵特别的树能多么迅速地让你重新辨明方向。

The colonists’ first glimpse of the new land was a sight of dense woods.

殖民者第一眼看到的新大陆是一片茂密的森林。

To the anxious travelers the sight of the American shore brought almost inexpressible relief.

对于焦虑不安的旅行者来说，看到美洲海岸带来了几乎无法言喻的宽慰。

(46) They sometimes travel more than sixty miles to find food or water, and are very good at working out where other elephants are — even when they are out of sight.

（46）它们有时会跋涉六十多英里去寻找食物或水源，而且非常善于判断其他大象的位置——即使在看不见对方的时候也是如此。
