86.2001年9月11日美國發生了什么重大事件？
Answer: Terrorists attacked the United States.
答案：恐怖分子襲擊了美國
Explanation: Terrorism (or violence that is used against people to try to scare them) used to be something that Americans only read about in the newspaper.
解釋：恐怖主義（或用來對付人們的暴力，企圖恐嚇他們）曾是美國人只會在報紙上看到的東西。
They knew that terrorists were dangerous (or could hurt them), but it didn't really happen in the United States so it didn't affect their daily life.
他們知道恐怖分子很危險（或會傷害到他們），但它沒有真的在美國出現，因此它沒有影響到他們的日常生活。
But on September 11, 2001, all of that changed and terrorism hit home, starting to affect Americans in their own country.
但在2001年9月11日，這一現狀發生了改變，恐怖主義在美國出現了，開始影響到了美國人。
On that day, men affiliated with (or connected to) a terrorist group called al-Qaeda hijacked four planes, taking control of them and changing their route (or the place that they were going to fly to).
在那天，隸屬于（或與之有關系）名為基地組織的恐怖分子組織成員劫持了四架飛機，控制并改變了它們的航線（或它們要飛往的地方）。
Two of the planes crashed into (or hit) the World Trade Center Towers, two very tall buildings, in New York City.
其中兩架飛機撞上了世界貿易中心大廈，紐約的兩座摩天大樓。
The planes exploded (or blew into many pieces) and caused a lot of damage (or broken and ruined things) in the buildings.
飛機發生爆炸（或炸成許多碎片）并使大廈嚴重受創（或損毀了的東西）。
Many people died on impact (or at the moment when the planes hit the buildings), but many more people died when the buildings collapsed (or fell down) a little while later.
許多人被撞死了（或飛機撞上建筑物的時候），但更多的人是在大樓倒塌（或坍塌）后不久死去的。
