DEEP DIVES

Minecraft’s jungles are generally pretty dense (just like my editor)! They’re packed with trees, bushes, vines, ocelots, and temples, to give you that intrepid feeling of exploring a verdant rainforest paradise.
如同我的编辑器，Minecraft 里的丛林通常来讲是密密麻麻的。里面被丛林木、灌木、藤蔓、豹猫和丛林神庙这些东西塞满了，给你一种探索梦幻般的翠绿雨林的奇妙感觉。
But what if you want a taste of that jungle feeling without quite so much stuff getting in the way? Allow me to introduce you to our biome of the month – the sparse jungle.
若你想要体验丛林的感觉，同时又不想被杂物挡住你的去路，那么请允许我向你介绍我们本月的群系——稀疏的丛林。

Sparse jungles became a part of Minecraft in The Update That Changed The World, back in October 2013, though jungles (as we’ve previously discussed) had been around a bit longer. Originally, sparse jungles were called “jungle edge”, but we renamed them in our latest update in favor of something much more creative to reflect the new way that terrain is generated.
在2013年10月25日发布的Java版1.7.2（改变世界的更新）中，稀疏的丛林加入了游戏，就在我们之前的群系漫游：丛林中已经说过了，丛林要比稀疏的丛林出现的时间更长，最开始稀疏的丛林曾被叫做”丛林之边“，但是我们在之后的更新中重新把它们命了名，这是为了更好的让你感受到地形的新生成方式是多么的新奇。

Sparse jungles spawn far fewer trees than regular jungles – and only small ones at that. But otherwise, it’s still a rich source of vines, cocoa, and melon. You won’t find any jungle temples here, because apparently, their ancient builders preferred to hide their secrets deeper into the rainforest. But generally, it’s a pretty great place to set up home – rich in flora, fauna, and those all-important building materials.
正常来说，稀疏的丛林里面的树比丛林相比要少得多，且只有小型的树，但它仍然是藤蔓、可可豆和西瓜的丰富来源，你在这里找不到任何丛林神庙，因为很明显，古建筑者更喜欢将这些的神庙秘密地藏在雨林深处，但总的来说，这个地方非常适合安家，因为这里有丰富的动植物，还有其他重要的建筑材料。

In the real world, the edges of rainforests are one of the most beautiful but threatened ecosystems on our planet. Over the last few decades, humans have been cutting down more and more of the world’s rainforests to turn into cattle-grazing, crop-growing and urban areas and this process is estimated to be driving about 50,000 species into extinction every single year.
在现实世界中，稀疏的丛林是地球上最美丽的生态系统之一，但它现在却遭受着严重的威胁，在过去的几十年里，人类砍伐了世界上越来越多的热带雨林，把它们变成了牧场、农作物种植区和城市区域，据估计，大约每年就有5万种物种因此而灭绝。

That’s a lot – if you said the name of one of those species every second, it would take you almost 14 hours to say them all. But it doesn't have to be this way. For millennia, indigenous peoples have successfully lived alongside the rainforest without destroying it – and there’s much we can learn from them.
每年灭绝的物种的数量是特别多的——就算你能不间断地每秒说其中一个物种的名字，你还得花大约14个小时才能把它们全部说完！！！但事情并不一定这么悲观，自古几千年，土著民族在没有破坏雨林的情况下完美的生活在雨林中，其实从他们身上我们可以学到很多东西。

If you’d like to know more, then check out our deforestation lesson in Minecraft: Education Edition. And for every rainforest tree you chop down in Minecraft, maybe try to plant a new one, yeah?
如果你有兴趣了解更多，那么你可以在《我的世界：教育版》里看一看 滥伐森林 这个课程。并且之后你在 Minecraft 里的丛林中每砍一棵从林树就会再补种一棵，对吗？
