1.liquid water 液态水
For example, scientists have found evidence that there could be liquid water—which is necessary for life on Earth—at many places on the Mars.
他说,比如,科学家曾经在火星上的很多地方发现曾有液态水存在的证据,而这是生物生存的必要条件。
Although the temperature estimate is not yet definitive, the hotter the surface temperature makes for a hotter interior, strengthening the chances of pools of liquid water inside the moon.
现在对温度的测量还不尽准确,越热的表面温度预示着越热的内部温度,这增加了土卫二内蕴含着大量液态水的可能性。
