课文讲解
Every spring in Taiwan, residents and visitors have the opportunity to behold the charming calla lilies on Yangmingshan. The cool, humid climate of the mountain is an ideal environment for these stunning white flowers to grow. The Bamboo Lake (竹子湖) area is so productive that it supplies 80 percent of Taiwan’s total calla lily crop.
每年的春天，台湾的居民及游客都有机会亲眼一睹阳明山上迷人的海芋风光。该地凉爽、潮湿的气候对于这些美得令人惊艳的白花来说，正是理想的生长环境。而竹子湖地区的海芋产量也十分丰饶，它总共供应了全台80%的海芋量。
Its large trumpet-shaped blossom and its thick green stem make the calla lily a gorgeous flower. As a symbol of love and beauty, it’s an obvious choice for wedding ceremonies and floral bouquets. Although it is originally from South Africa, the white variety on Yangmingshan was actually imported from Japan.
大喇叭形状的花朵及绿色厚实的花茎让它成为高雅美丽之花。身为爱与美的象征，海芋不论在婚礼或花束上，都是当仁不让的选择。虽其源自南非，但阳明山上的白色品种海芋实际上却是从日本引进。
To experience the beautiful blooming of the lily, nothing beats attending the month-long Yangmingshan Calla Lily Festival in March and April. More than forty flower farms welcome people to come and pick a handful of the flowers at a discount. The chance to breathe mountain air and take in the pretty views of the valley makes this an event you don’t want to miss.
想要体验海芋田开花的美丽盛况，没什么比3、4月份亲自造访阳明山为期一个月的海芋季更适合的了。有超过40个花田欢迎游客来访及以折扣价带走一把海芋。有机会能呼吸到山上的空气，并同时欣赏山谷美景，让人完全不想错过这一年一度的海芋季。
