 　　Monster Storm Hits U.S.

　　超強(qiáng)風(fēng)暴“桑迪”橫掃美國(guó)東部

　　Monster storm Sandy, which had claimed nearly 70 lives in the Caribbean when it was ahurricane, hit the densely populated U.S. East Coast with 80 mph (129 kph) winds early last week.

　　超強(qiáng)風(fēng)暴“桑迪”，據(jù)稱(chēng)在它還只是颶風(fēng)時(shí)已在加勒比海奪去近70條性命。在上個(gè)星期初，它以每小時(shí)80英里(即每小時(shí)129公里)的風(fēng)速襲擊了美國(guó)人口密集的東海岸。

　　Just before the storm center made landfall in New Jersey (新澤西州), forecasters stripped (剝奪) it of hurricane status based on its shape and internal temperature. But the storm still packed hurricane-force winds, and forecasters said it remained every bit as dangerous.

　　在風(fēng)暴中心登陸新澤西州前，預(yù)報(bào)員據(jù)其形狀和內(nèi)部溫度免除了它形成颶風(fēng)的可能。但是暴風(fēng)仍有著颶風(fēng)威力般的風(fēng)速，因此預(yù)報(bào)員說(shuō)它仍然是十分危險(xiǎn)的。

　　Sandy knocked out power to at least 3.1 million people across the East. At least 95 deaths were blamed on the storm, which threatened 50 million people in the eastern third of the country.

　　“桑迪”的肆虐使美國(guó)東部將近310萬(wàn)戶(hù)斷電。至少有95人因此喪生，并且威脅到該國(guó)東部5000萬(wàn)人的三分之一。

　　The storm hurled (猛投) an unprecedented 13-foot (4-meter) surge of seawater at New York City, threatening its subways and the electrical system that powers Wall Street. The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE, 紐約證券交易所) was closed on the first two days of last week. The last time it was closed for weather was in 1985, and this was the first two-day closing of the NYSE because of weather since a blizzard (暴風(fēng)雪) in 1888.

　　“桑迪”給紐約帶來(lái)前所未有的13英尺(4米)的海水，沖擊著紐約市的地鐵系統(tǒng)并且導(dǎo)致華爾街電力系統(tǒng)癱瘓。紐約證券交易所在上周前兩天暫時(shí)關(guān)閉。上一次因?yàn)樘鞖庠蜿P(guān)閉交易所是在1985年，而這次是自1888年的暴風(fēng)雪以來(lái)，第一次因?yàn)樘鞖庠蛟陬^兩天就關(guān)閉了紐約證券交易所。

　　As the storm closed in, it hit the big cities of the Northeast corridor—Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and Boston—with stinging (刺人的) rain and strong winds of more than 85 mph. It also met with a cold-weather system that turned it into a superstorm, amonstrous hybrid consisting not only of rain and high wind but snow.

　　隨著風(fēng)暴的逐漸靠近，它同時(shí)襲擊了東北部的一些大城市——華盛頓，巴爾的摩，費(fèi)城，紐約以及波士頓——伴隨著暴雨和每小時(shí)超過(guò)85英里的強(qiáng)風(fēng)。并且它又與冷氣團(tuán)相遇形成超級(jí)風(fēng)暴，這個(gè)駭人聽(tīng)聞的組合不但會(huì)帶來(lái)暴雨強(qiáng)風(fēng)還有暴雪。

　　Sandy, which grounded more than 15,000 flights in the U.S., also brought the presidential campaign to a halt at the very height of the race, with just over a week to go before Election Day. President Barack Obama and his rival Mitt Romney canceled their campaign appearances. The president instead focused on monitoring Sandy from Washington, D.C. Hepledged the government’s help and made a direct plea from the White House to those in the storm’s path.

　　“桑迪”，使美國(guó)被迫停飛了將近15000個(gè)航班，也使美國(guó)總統(tǒng)競(jìng)選在達(dá)到最高潮的時(shí)候暫停了，在選舉日前的一個(gè)星期�？偨y(tǒng)巴拉克•奧巴馬和他的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手米特•羅姆尼取消了他們的競(jìng)選活動(dòng)�？偨y(tǒng)的注意力轉(zhuǎn)移到從華盛頓開(kāi)始視察“桑迪”肆虐過(guò)的災(zāi)區(qū)。他向?yàn)?zāi)民承諾，聯(lián)邦一定會(huì)伸手援助并在白宮發(fā)表直接的呼吁。

　　“When they tell you to evacuate, you need to evacuate,” he said. “Don’t delay; don’t pause; don’t question the instructions that are being given, because this is a powerful storm.”

　　“當(dāng)他們告訴你需要撤離的時(shí)候，你就必須撤離, ”他說(shuō):“不要拖延，不要猶豫，不要質(zhì)疑給出的指令，因?yàn)檫@是一場(chǎng)強(qiáng)大的風(fēng)暴。”

　　Storm damage was projected at $10 billion to $20 billion, meaning it could prove to be one of the costliest natural disasters in U.S. history.

　　風(fēng)暴預(yù)計(jì)將造成100億到200億美元之間的損失，這意味著它可能成為美國(guó)歷史上造成最大損失的一場(chǎng)自然災(zāi)害。
