在大海中建造长达数公里、由钢铁和混凝土构成的庞然大物——悬索桥和斜拉桥简直是一件不可思议的事,是对重力和自然界其他力的有力挑战。诞生在世界各地的最新一代桥梁无论是在长度还是在复杂程度上都打破了纪录。更令人叫绝的是,新的跨海大桥还刷新了稳定性的纪录。 Building miles of giant, steel and concrete monoliths in the sea - suspension bridges and cable-stayed bridges - is simply incredible, a challenge to gravity and other forces in nature. The latest generation of bridges, born in all parts of the world, broke records both in length and in complexity. Even more stunning is the new bridge across the sea has also set a record of stability.
