Now it barely breaks the surface. Yet still it attracts a spectacular array of wildlife. There are thousands of islands just like this scattered across the Pacific, and all are teeming with life. So what has reduced the mountains of the Pacific to this? Almost seven miles deep, the Pacific is the deepest body of water on the planet. But sometimes, the seabed shoots to the surface. Behold one of nature's rarest sights - the creation of a new island. This is Kavachi in the Solomon Islands, one of the most active undersea volcanoes in the world. In the last 100 years, Kavachi's emerged above the waves just a handful of times, but so far to no avail. Powerful waves keep sweeping its efforts away.这个南太平洋的小岛貌似并不起眼。然而，它曾经是一座“一览众浪小”的高山。如今它几乎不再破海而出了。但它仍然吸引了大量的野生动物群。在太平洋分布着数千个类似的岛屿，上面都栖息着众多生物。是什么力量使太平洋的群山退化到这种程度呢？太平洋是地球上最深的水体，深度大约7英里。注意，这是自然界最罕见的景观之一--一个新岛屿的诞生过程。这就是卡瓦奇岛，隶属所罗门群岛，是世界上最活跃的海底火山之一。在过去的一百年里，卡瓦奇岛有几次探出海面，但都无功而返。它的努力总是被强大的海浪一扫而空。
