Introduction
BERMUDA Triangle (百 慕 大 三 角 ) is the greatest modern mystery of our supposedly(恐怕,可能,按照推测) well understood world: a region of the Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda, Miami, Florida, and San Juan (圣 胡 安 , 波 多 黎 各 岛 首 府 ), Puerto Rico (波 多 黎 各 岛 ), in which many ships and airplanes are said to have disappeared. Though no scientific evidence has been found, reports of unexplained occurrences have continued from the 19th century to the present.
