水坑；小池塘

An oryx cruised doggedly toward a water hole at a nearby tourist camp.───一头羚羊顽固的游弋向一个小水塘，水塘的附近扎着一顶游客的帐篷。

an unusual ambush, a Nile crocodile grabbed onto an elephant's trunk at an African water hole this summer.───这个夏天，在非洲某个小池塘，一个不寻常的埋伏，一只尼罗鳄一口咬住了大象的鼻子！

Runoff from the pool created this water hole, where warthogs come to wallow.───水塘是由冲刷后的洼地建起来的, 犹猪争相来这里打滚嬉戏.

Nevertheless, he regarded the digging of the water hole as necessary.───尽管如此，他认为挖掘水坑也还是必要的。
