非洲的英文介绍：
Africa is located in the western part of the Eastern Hemisphere, south of Europe, west of Asia, east of the Indian Ocean, west of the Atlantic Ocean, north and south of the equator.
It covers an area of about 30.2 million square kilometers, accounting for 20.4% of the total land area of the world. It is the second largest continent in the world and also the second largest continent in population.
非洲全称阿非利加洲，位于东半球西部，欧洲以南，亚洲之西，东濒印度洋，西临大西洋，纵跨赤道南北，面积大约为3020万平方公里，占全球总陆地面积的20.4%，是世界第二大洲，同时也是人口第二大洲。
Africa is famous for its wide variety and abundance of wildlife, with more large ungulated mammals and freshwater fish than any other continent.
There are about 3000 species of fish, 238 species of amphibians, 58 species of reptiles, 589 species of birds and 1100 species of mammals.
非洲以野生动物品种及数量繁多而闻名，大型有蹄类哺乳动物和淡水鱼比其他各洲都多。 鱼类约有3000个物种，两栖动物有约238种，爬行动物有58种，鸟类有589种，哺乳动物有1100种。
Africa is known as the "tropical continent". Its climate is characterized by high temperature, less rain and dryness.
The distribution of climate zones is symmetrical in North and south. The equator runs across the center, and the climate generally decreases from the equator with the increase of latitude.
非洲有“热带大陆”之称，其气候特点是高温、少雨、干燥，气候带分布呈南北对称状。赤道横贯中央，气候一般从赤道随纬度增加而降低。
About 95% of the total area of the continent is in the region with an average annual temperature above 20 C. More than half of the regions are hot all the year round, and nearly half of the regions have hot warm and cool seasons.
The average annual temperature in Dalol, northeastern Ethiopia, is 34.5 degrees Celsius, one of the highest in the world.
全洲年平均气温在20℃以上的地带约占全洲面积95%，其中一半以上的地区终年炎热，有将近一半的地区有着炎热的暖季和温暖的凉季。埃塞俄比亚东北部的达洛尔年平均气温为34.5℃，是世界年平均气温最高的地方之一。

1、非洲文明
非洲是人类进化史上从古猿到森林古猿、拉玛古猿、“完全形成的人”—能人、直立人、智人、直到现代人都存在过的大陆。人类学家在非洲发现了最早的“完全形成的人”的化石。这些发现使包括进化论奠基人达尔文在内的人类学家得出了非洲是人类诞生地的猜想。
2、非洲饮食
在非洲很多地方，吃饭不使刀叉，更不用筷子，而是用手抓饭。吃饭时，大家围着桌子坐一圈，一个饭盒和一个菜盒放在中间。每个人用左手按住饭盒或菜盒的边沿，用右手的手指抓自己面前的饭和菜，送入口中。客人吃饭时应注意的是，切勿将饭菜撒在地上，这是主人所忌讳的。
长者未离席时，晚辈要静坐等候；子女离席时，须向父母行礼致谢；客人则应等主人吃完后一道离开。总体说来，非洲饮食文化比较单一，主要是肉食和玉米、面粉之类。

Africa, particularly central eastern Africa, is widely regarded within the scientific community to be the origin of humans and the Hominidae tree, as evidenced by the discovery of the earliest hominids, as well as later ones that have been dated to around 7 million years ago – including Sahelanthropus tchadensis, Australopithecus africanus and Homo erectus – with the earliest humans being dated to ca. 200,000 years ago, according to this view.
Africa straddles the equator and encompasses numerous climate areas; it is the only continent to stretch from the northern temperate to southern temperate zones. Because of the lack of natural regular precipitation and irrigation as well as glaciers or mountain aquifer systems, there is no natural moderating effect on the climate except near the coasts.
