在一些历史古迹,常有一些曾经见证过重要历史事件和著名人物的参天古树。它们历经沧桑,触摸着它们就仿佛感受着历史的厚重。
Witness tree refers to an extremely old tree, particularly one that was present at one or more important historical events. Many tourists come to the Laurel Hill Cemetery, and they loved the tree because it was one of those that touched history; it was alive when famous figures from the past were alive. Many battlefields, such as Gettysburg, have ‘witness trees,’ which survived the fighting and are honored. (中国日报网英语点津 yaning)
