本周,英格兰一处海滩被大量薯条覆盖,这些薯条因恶劣天气从船上掉落。志愿者正在清理海滩,当地官员警告这些薯条可能对环境造成危害,特别是对附近的海豹构成威胁。
Beach-goers saw a strange sight this week. A beach was covered in French fries. They fell off of ships because of bad weather. Bags of chips reached a beach in England.
A local man said: "From a distance, it looked like the golden sand of a Caribbean beach." He said the chips were 75 cm deep in some places. Volunteers are now cleaning the beach.
The chips are a danger to the environment. Seals live near the beach. If the seals see the chips, they might try to eat them.
A local official warned people to be careful. She said any food on the beach might be harmful. She asked people to report any food they see on the beach.
