At first before you’ve gone very far down, the colors will seem normal. But as you dive deeper, you begin to wonder where all the warm colors have gone. You try to catch sight of reds or yellows or oranges.

Then as you sink still farther, you will see only blues and purples(紫色).Soon these, too, begin to lose colors as you go down.

Now, far below the surface of the water, you will find yourself in a gray(灰色)，colorless place. The water above you is filtering out all of the sunlight’s rainbow(彩虹) of light.

If you continue to go down, you will soon be so far below the surface that no light can reach you. The blackness will become so complete that your eyes will ache to see something, then anything. Now you are ready to return to the surface, with its changing colors.

We watched some people ________into the river from the bridge again and again．

[　　]

The film The Tides of Kirawira, which won two prizes at a recent television festival, was made by Mark Deeble and Victoria Stone. The couple are in England to visit friends and family before heading back to Tanzania for their next film. Their work takes them to some of the world’s least-known areas but they still find themselves drawn back to England, particularly to Cornwall, where their work and personal relationship developed.

“We met in London when Mark was studying biology and I was at the Royal College of Art studying photography,” says Victoria. “We both learned to dive at the same pool in London and went on diving weekends in the country. It was a terrible place, freezing cold, where we dived in wet suits full of holes. But that is where our relationship developed.”

After completing their studies they took part in the management of a conservation area in the mouth of the River Fal in Cornwall. “We were shocked. Nobody seemed to understand the river’s ecological importance. So we thought, why don’t we make a film to show people what a special place it is? Neither of us had any experience of filming but we took part-time jobs until we had enough cash to buy an underwater camera and some film.” A television company agreed to provide money for the work and the film they produced about the underwater life of the River Fal was shown on television and won a number of prizes.

By then, they both knew they wanted to work with wildlife in distant places around the world. Alkan Root, a famous East African wildlife film-maker, asked them to work for him. That was seven years ago and the job took them to the Serengeti to film crocodiles. Their films, Here Be Dragons and Devil Fish, were very successful.

“We love Africa but we have to come back to England every year,” says Victoria. “We need to return to see our friends and family. For us, Africa is temporary and England means permanence. It’s the difference between living in a tent in Tanzania and a house in Cornwall. We are lucky… we have the best of both worlds.”
