But Everest is actually still growing taller every year, as the Indian plate keeps slowly slamming into the Eurasian plate.

但是珠穆朗玛峰实际上每年都在增高，因为印度板块一直在慢慢撞击欧亚板块。

Everest and the rest of the Himalayas, for example, started growing when the Indian plate slammed into the Eurasian plate about 40 to 50 million years ago.

例如，大约 4000 到 5000 万年前，当印度板块撞击欧亚板块时，珠穆朗玛峰和喜马拉雅山脉的其他地方开始形成。

China is caught between the Indian and Pacific plates, making it a  highly active location for earthquakes.

中国夹在印度板块和太平洋板块之间，使其成为地震高度活跃的地区。

50 million years ago, the Earth's Indian Plate drifted north, bumped into the bigger Eurasian Plate, and the crust crumpled, creating huge uplift.

五千万年前，地球印度板块向北漂移，撞击较大的欧亚大陆板块，地壳因此皱缩，产生巨大的隆升。

Like maybe it was uplifted as the Indian plate pushed further north and as the Himalayas rose.

就像随着印度板块 向北推进和喜马拉雅山上升，它可能被抬升了。

A chunk of the Earth's crust known as the Indian plate rammed into Eurasia, starting the process that would eventually form the Himalayas.

一块被称为印度板块的地壳撞击欧亚大陆，开始了最终形成喜马拉雅山的过程。

Earlier in the Eocene, the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate created the Himalayas, and the slow weathering of these new mountains gradually removed Carbon Dioxide from the air.

在始新世早期， 印度板块与欧亚板块的碰撞形成了喜马拉雅山脉，这些新山脉的缓慢风化逐渐消除了空气中的二氧化碳。
