（单词翻译）

They may not look like much, but these are the largest dinosaur1 （恐龙）foot prints known to man. As six feet wide they are believed to have been left by the sauropod，left for us to see a hundred and fifty million years after they walked the earth.

Scientists who enter the village of Plagne in France say the discovery can not be underestimated（低估）.

(Patrice Landry:) It's exciting because not just fossils, it's also traces of life. And as you can see this pathway, you can see dinosaurs2 walking on this beach, feet sinking in this sludge, making these ripples4.

Plagne on the France-Swiss border is a region known for its Jurassic discoveries, for residents herd5 has put where they live on the map.

This woman says it's liven things up a bit.

It's great, says this man, I am really impressed.

A particularly beautiful foot print, a palm, and then a finger, another finger, here a scratch（从头开始）, and then in front of the foot, the ripple3.

This isn't a find that's captured just the French press. Scientists around the world said they'll now help us learn more about a bygone era.
