BBC Learning English Story of the Week 每周一报 6 March 2013 ：Walrus seen in Scotland 苏格兰罕见小海象
Transcript 英语文字稿带中文翻译:
Thousands of miles from home, a walrus dozes on a beach in Scotland's Orkney Islands.
一只海象正在远离家乡几千英里之外的苏格兰奥克尼群岛的一个海滩上打盹儿呢。
It's been called a "once in a lifetime event" for a walrus to be spotted so far south of the Arctic Circle.
在北极圈以南这么远的地方看到海象实在是一生罕见的景象。
Nonetheless, the young male appeared to be in good health, and happy to be the centre of attention.
不过这头小公海象看上去很健康而且很高兴成为众人关注的焦点。
In the past, the animals were hunted for their blubber, ivory and meat, but now numbers are recovering.
过去，人们曾捕猎海象，提取其脂肪、象牙和肉，不过现在海象的数量正在回升。
