一件新的研究结果显示,长江巧妙地隐瞒了自己的年龄,它的实际年龄比人们先前认为的多了大约4000万年。长江是世界第三大河流,长度约为6300公里。该研究结果显示,长江的起源可追溯到4500万年之前。这项研究结果刊登在今天出版的《地质学》月刊上。 A new study shows that the Yangtze has ingeniously concealed its own age, which is actually about 40 million years older than previously thought. The Yangtze River is the third largest river in the world with a length of about 6,300 km. The findings show that the origins of the Yangtze can be traced back to 45 million years ago. The results of this study are published in the monthly “Geology” magazine published today.
