Nearly two billion years of the Earths geological history have been exposed as the Colorado River and its tributaries cut their channels through layer after layer of rock while the Colorado Plateau was uplifted. While the specific geologic processes and timing that formed the Grand Canyon are the subject of debate by geologists, recent evidence suggests the Colorado River established its course through the canyon at least 17 million years ago. Since that time, the Colorado River continued to erode and form the canyon to the point we see it as today. 大峡谷277英里（446公里）长，4到18 英里（6.4至29公里）宽，深度达到1比 1英里（1.83公里）（6000英尺）。科 罗拉多河揭露了近二十亿年地球的地 质历史，当科罗拉多高原隆升，其支流 从岩石层切割到渠道层。虽然地质学家 主体辩论的是具体的地质过程和时间形 成了大峡谷，最近的证据表明，科罗拉 多河在至少17万年前就开始形成。自那 时以来，科罗拉多河不断侵蚀，形成了 我们今天看到的看到峡谷上的一点。 Tributaries:之流 Uplifted：隆升 Specific：具体的 Erode：侵蚀 The Great Barrier Reef is the largest coral reef in the world, roughly parallel to the coast of Queensland, Australia, for almost 2,000km.
