Reporter:As the firefighters, the police officers, the rescue workers who have been laboring all night here in Lower Manhattan tell us now that they have daybreak,

that they confront three basic problems. Number one:there are still fires burning here in Lower Manhattan.
他們面臨三個基本問題：第一，在曼哈頓南區仍然有殘火。

當我們站在西百老匯上向南看時，如果你也在場，你就會發現，世貿中心的殘礫中仍有大量的濃煙冒出。
But you can also see the fire hoses twenty-two hours after the first explosion still spraying water on the buildings.
但你也能看到在第一次爆炸二十二小時后很多滅火水龍頭帶還在向建筑物噴水。
Problem number two is that there are buildings that they still fear will collapse.Of course what you have is three major structures have collapsed, but there is a great fear that many more buildings have been severely damaged.
第二個問題是他們仍然擔心會有建筑物已經倒塌，當然你們已知道三棟主要建筑物已經倒塌，但很大可能會有更多的建筑物嚴重損毀。

我們認為這是事實，我們非常希望在廢墟穴中除了我們認識的人活著外，還有其他人也活著。
But elsewhere the news is grim. The president last night puts the death toll from the attacks in the thousands after an estimated 12 to 20 terrorists wielding make-shift knives hijacked four domestic airliners.
但其他地方的傳來消息卻是殘酷的，估計12至20名恐怖主義分子利用伸縮刀劫持四架國內航機后，昨晚總統已經宣布由于襲擊而死亡的人數增至數千人。

Crashing instead in western Pennsylvania. One possible explanation:a passenger on the doomed flight reportedly called his wife telling her "We're all going to die, I love you."
