East China's Zhejiang Province was a "Jurassic Park"with a wide variety of dinosaurs during theCretaceous period, according to findings of a six-year survey.根据一项长达6年的调查的结果显示，中国东部的浙江省曾经是一座“侏罗纪公园”，在白垩纪时期，该地区生存着各种各样的恐龙。

A total 82 dinosaur fossil sites, with at least sixdinosaur species and 25 types of fossil dinosaureggs, were confirmed during the survey by a jointteam of experts from the Zhejiang Institute ofHydrogeology and Engineering Geology and Zhejiang Museum of Natural History, between 2006and 2019.在2006年至2019年的这段调查期间，浙江水文地质工程地质研究所与浙江自然自然博物馆所组成的联合专家小组发现了82个恐龙化石遗址，其中至少包括6种恐龙和25种恐龙蛋化石。The research recently won a second-class award from the Ministry of Land and Resources.Scientists identified eight new species among the fossils. The survey covered an area of11,000 square kilometers in Zhejiang.该项研究最近获得了国土资源部二等奖。科学家们从这些化石中鉴定出了8个新物种。该调查覆盖了浙江省内1.1万平方公里的区域。Scientists have used various research techniques ranging from geology, paleobiology tochronostratigraphy, combined with site inspections and excavations in their study, making it themost comprehensive research on dinosaur fossils in the province to date.科学家们使用了地质学、古生物学和年代地层学等多种研究方法，结合研究中的现场调查和发掘，完成了浙江省目前最为全面的一份恐龙化石研究。"It has been proved that a large quantity of dinosaurs lived in Zhejiang during the Cretaceousperiod, about 65 million to 145 million years ago," said Jin Xingsheng, deputy curator ofZhejiang Museum of Natural History. "Compare with other southeastern provinces, Zhejiang hasthe largest amount of dinosaur fossils."浙江自然博物馆副馆长金幸生表示：“目前已经证明，在白垩纪时期，也就是距今约6500万到1亿4500万年前，有大量恐龙生活在浙江。和其他东南部省份相比，浙江省的恐龙化石数量最多。”Their discoveries also give evidence to the general thought that a comet or asteroid impactcaused the mass extinction of dinosaurs.他们的发现也给认为是彗星或小行星撞击地球造成恐龙大灭绝的观点提供了证据。Scientists found that sedimentary rocks, where most dinosaur fossils were unearthed, weresanwiched between two layers of volcanic rocks, indicating vegetation was lush and suitablefor dinosaurs in the early and middle Cretaceous period.科学家们发现，沉积岩(恐龙化石大多从这一岩石层中出土)被夹在两层火山岩石之间，这表明白垩纪早中期植被很茂盛，适合恐龙生存。The evidence showed a catastrophe in the late Cretaceous period might have ended the ageof prehistoric creatures.证据显示，白垩纪晚期的一场灾难结束了这些史前生物的时代。Scientists believed the hit of an asteroid was the most likely reason as it can result in a series ofsudden climate changes such as volcanic eruptions, crustal faults and generate radioactivesubstances that cause the dinosaurs to die out.科学家们认为小行星撞击地球是造成恐龙灭绝最有可能的原因，因为那可以造成一系列的气候突变，例如火山喷发、地壳断层和产生放射性物质等等，从而导致恐龙灭绝。
