  会飞的企鹅
  It's a BBC prank, this one was a trailer for a nature documentary explaining the discovery of flying penguins in Antarctica. The related informational releases explained the birds had evolved the ability to fly so they could enjoy winter retreats to the Amazon. The birds were said to be very isolated and unreachable by most explorers, but the intrepid BBC crew had risked life and limb to document the spectacle of the migration.
  这是英国广播公司的恶作剧,它是一部自然纪录片的预告片。讲的是在南极洲发现了会飞的企鹅。相关的信息发布解释说,这些鸟已经进化出了飞行的能力,这样它们就可以去亚马逊过冬了。据说这些企鹅住在让人难以接近的偏僻之地,这让大多数探险家都望尘莫及。但勇敢的英国广播公司机组人员冒着生命危险记录了这迁徙的奇观。
