- Once underground,
一旦进入地下 - the water takes on a new, more erosive power.
水便有了一股新的、更强的侵蚀力 - During its journey from the surface
在地面上流淌时 - the water absorbed carbon dioxide from the soil
水从土壤中吸收了二氧化碳 - making it mildly acidic.
成为弱酸性 - And over millions of years this acid eats away the limestone
石灰岩经过几百万年的酸蚀作用 - creating a maze of caverns and passages
形成了迷宫般的溶洞和通道
