其實,日落的景象和日出同樣壯觀、綺麗,而且神秘、迷人。如果有機會觀日落,它會使你神往:太陽靜靜地躺在西方地平線上,變得如此之大,顏色是那樣深黃、殷紅;它緩緩墜落,接近地平線時竟縮身變扁。若天空有云,你會看見燦爛的晚霞:全天無云,不要忘記回頭,你會發現背后的天空中現出神秘的藍灰色暗弧,暗弧外面還鑲有明顯的亮弧,而在暗弧和亮弧上升的同時,西方天空還會出現迷人的紫光,隨著太陽的墜落,紫光下移,接近地平線時才消失,可惜這種美麗的紫光并不多見。
The sun is lying silently on the horizon in the west, and it becomes so big with a blend of deep yellow and crimson. It falls slowly and turns flat while approaching the skyline. If there were clouds floating in the sky, you could see the sunset glow which is brilliant. If it’s a cloudless day, do not forget to turn around and look at the sky. You will find mysterious bluish grey arcs with distinctively bright bands. With the rise of the dim arcs and the bright bands, fascinating purple light appears in the western sky. It moves down as the sun goes down, and finally disappears near the horizon. It is a pity that the purple light is not always observed.
