种子库已运营数十年，但很多都建在农业区，而且很少有种子库具有像全球种子地库这样的高科技设施和安全保障。

Seed banks have operated for decades, but many are based in agricultural areas and few are as high-tech or secure as the Global Seed Vault.

本周，数以百计的装有种子的灰色盒子从叙利亚、墨西哥等地运至全球种子地库，藏于这个冷冻库之中。

Here at the Global Vault, hundreds of gray boxes containing seeds from places ranging from Syria to Mexico were moved this week into a freezing vault to be placed in suspended animation.
