But hidden deep inside

Rough and gray as rock,
查看中文翻译
Jack picked up the ocean book and flipped through it.
查看中文翻译
Annie climbed out of the tree house.
查看中文翻译
"Let's go find the answer," said Annie.
查看中文翻译
What am I?
查看中文翻译
"Oh, man, tiny skeletons," said Jack. He pulled out his notebook and wrote: Millions of coral skeletons
查看中文翻译
Annie picked up the riddle scroll. She unrolled it. Together she and Jack read the riddle:
查看中文翻译
She and Jack looked out the window. The tree house wasn't in a tree. It was on the ground.
查看中文翻译
"Why is the ground pink?" said Jack.
查看中文翻译
"I don't know," said Annie. "But I'm going out there."
查看中文翻译
I'm plain as plain can be.
查看中文翻译
"I'm going to do a little research first," said Jack.
查看中文翻译
He found a picture of a pink island surrounded by water. He read: This is a coral reef. Corals are tiny sea animals. After they die, their skeletons remain. Over time, the reef builds up from stacks of coral skeletons.
查看中文翻译
There's great beauty in me.
查看中文翻译
A breeze blew through the window. Sea gulls cried. Waves lapped the shore.

She was standing at the edge of the water. Beside her was a strange-looking machine.
查看中文翻译
Jack found a picture of the machine in the ocean book. He read: Scientists who study the ocean are called oceanographers. Sometimes they travel in small diving vessels called submersibles, or "mini-subs," to study the ocean floor.
查看中文翻译
"What is it?"
查看中文翻译
"Is it a special kind of boat?" asked Annie.
查看中文翻译
"Jack! Jack! Come look at this," cried Annie.
查看中文翻译
Jack threw his notebook and the ocean book into his pack. He climbed out the window.
查看中文翻译
"Is it the answer to the riddle?" he called.
查看中文翻译
Jack hurried over the bumpy coral to get a better look.
查看中文翻译
"No!" said Jack. Actually, he did want to see what the sub looked like inside. But he shook his head. "We can't. It's not ours."
查看中文翻译
"I don't think so. It doesn't look very plain," said Annie.
查看中文翻译
The machine was half on the reef and half in the clear blue water. It looked like a huge white bubble with a big window.
查看中文翻译
"I don't know. But you'll love it!" she said.
查看中文翻译
"It's a mini-sub," said Jack. He pulled out his notebook.
查看中文翻译
"Let's get inside it," said Annie.

"Don't worry," said Annie.
查看中文翻译
He and Annie slipped off their shoes and socks and threw them toward the tree house.
查看中文翻译
Jack sighed. "Okay. But we have to be careful. Don't touch anything," he said.
查看中文翻译
"Just a teeny peek," said Annie. "It might help us figure out the riddle."
查看中文翻译
"What's wrong?" Jack looked up.
查看中文翻译
The mini-sub was tiny. Two seats faced the big window. In front of the seats was a computer built into a control panel.
查看中文翻译
"Oops," said Annie.
查看中文翻译
Jack opened the ocean book and read more on the mini-sub page: Mini-subs have strong hulls to keep air in and protect those aboard from water pressure. Computers are used to guide the mini-sub through the ocean.
查看中文翻译
She and Jack climbed inside. The hatch slammed shut.
查看中文翻译
Then they stepped carefully over the sharp coral.
查看中文翻译
Annie turned the handle on the hatch of the mini-sub. It opened.
查看中文翻译
Annie sat down.
查看中文翻译
Annie was waving her hands in front of the computer. Now the screen showed a map.
查看中文翻译
"And take off your shoes so they won't get wet," said Jack.

"I just pressed a few keys --" said Annie.
查看中文翻译
"What's going on?" said Jack.
查看中文翻译
An air blower came on. The mini-sub jerked backward.
查看中文翻译
"Get out!" said Jack.
查看中文翻译
Then it dove silently down into the deep.
查看中文翻译
"What? I said not to touch anything!" said Jack.
查看中文翻译
The mini-sub slid off the reef.
查看中文翻译
He and Annie scrambled for the hatch. Jack grabbed the handle.
查看中文翻译
But they were too late.
