67 Volcanoes火山 Haroun Tazieff, the Polish scientist, has spent his lifetime studying active volcanoes and deep caves in all parts of the world. In 1948, he went to Lake Kivu in the Congo to observe a new volcano which he later named Kituro. Tazieff was able to set up his camp very close to the volcano while it was erupting violently. Though he managed to take a number of brilliant photographs, he could not stay near the volcano for very long. He noticed that a river of liquid rock was coming towards him. It threatened to surround him completely, but Tazieff managed to escape just in time. He waited until the volcano became quiet and he was able to return two days later. This time, he managed to climb into the mouth of Kituro so that he could take photographs and measure temperatures. Tazieff has often risked his life in this way. He has been able to tell us more about active volcanoes than any man alive. 哈龙Tazieff，波兰科学家，花了他一生研究活火山和深洞在世界各地。在1948，他去了刚果的基伍湖去观察一个新火山，后来他命名为基图罗。Tazieff得以建立了营地非常接近，而这是火山猛烈爆发。尽管他设法拍了一些精彩的照片，但是他不能在火山附近停留很长时间。他发现有一股岩浆正向他。眼看就要将他团团围住，但他还是设法及时逃离。他等到火山平静下来，两天后他才得以返回。这次，他设法爬进火山口里，以便拍照和测量温度。他经常冒这样的生命危险。他能告诉我们的有关活火山的情况比任何在世的人都更多。
