死海里为什么淹不死人？

The Dead Sea is not a normal sea. 死海，可不是一片普通的海。 It has way too much salt. 它里面的盐，多到离谱。 Lots of salt makes the water heavy. 盐一多，水就变得沉甸甸。 Heavy water pushes you up. 沉沉的水，会把你往上托。 So people float right on top. 人一进去，就浮在水面上。 You can read a book while lying there. 你躺着看书，都不会沉下去。 That is why nobody drowns there. 所以在那儿，根本淹不死人。
