kings and queens of film

影帝影后

(yǐnɡdì yǐnɡhòu)

A: I saw a really interesting video two days ago: A US explorer came across a rare type of caterpillar. When it gets into danger, it uses its tail to imitate a snake's head and scare off enemies.

我前两天看了一个很好玩的视频:一个美国探险家碰到了一种罕见的毛毛虫。它在遇到危险时, 尾巴会伪装成蛇头的形象, 以此来吓走敌人。

(wǒ qián liǎnɡtiān kànle yīɡè hěn hǎowán de shìpín, yīɡè měiɡuó tànxiǎnjiā pènɡdào le yīzhǒnɡ hǎnjiàn de máomáochónɡ. tā zài yùdào wēixiǎn shí, wěibā huì wěizhuānɡ chénɡ shétóu de xínɡxiànɡ, yǐcǐ lái xiàzǒu dírén.)

B: Really? That's really interesting! It's true that a lot of animals in nature will use camouflage to protect themselves.

真的吗?那实在是太有趣了!的确, 大自然中有很多动物都会利用伪装来保护自己。

(zhēnde ma?nà shízài shì tài yǒuqù le!díquè, dàzìrán zhōnɡ yǒu hěnduō dònɡwù dōuhuì lìyònɡ wěizhuānɡ lái bǎohù zìjǐ.)

A: Compared to human actors, they are the true kings and queens of film!

相比于我们人类的演员, 它们才是真正的影帝影后呢!
