安静的那一边

一条小溪把盐田分开。对岸是老的那一边。现在没有人在那里做盐了。老水池里长着矮矮的植物。水渠边有一排排老石头房子。

A small stream divides the salt pans. On the other side is the old part. No one makes salt there now. Low plants grow in the old pools. Rows of old stone houses stand by the canals.

现在鸟儿住在这里。波莉走进一个浅水池。白色的白鹭站在她周围，它们有长长的黑腿。波莉站着一动不动。将近三百种鸟会来到这片盐田。

Now the birds live here. Polly walked into a shallow pool. White egrets with long black legs stood around her. Polly stood very still. Nearly three hundred kinds of birds come to these pans.

一栋老房子里有一个小博物馆。波莉看到了旧的木耙、篮子和铲子。

In an old house there is a small museum. Polly saw old wooden rakes, baskets and scoops.

盐工们说，盐是在冬天做的。冬天，他们修土墙和水渠。这样，夏天就能带来盐。波莉觉得，这是一个很有耐心的农场。

The salt workers say, salt is made in winter. In winter they fix the walls and the channels. Then summer can bring the salt. Polly thought it was a very patient farm.
