Hurricane-force winds batter UK, threaten Europe
颶風(fēng)肆虐英國 威脅歐洲
Hurricane-force winds cut power and wreaked havoc in England and Scotland, as Storm Xaver blasted towards mainland Europe. Strong winds battered Scotland, and killed a truck driver whose vehicle was swept on top of two cars in West Lothian. Four people were injured. Crews rescued stranded neighbors from their flooded homes in Rhyl, north of Wales. Margaret Smith took it all in stride:
颶風(fēng)Xaver導(dǎo)致電力中斷，在英格蘭和蘇格蘭造成重大破壞，正在向歐洲大陸移動。狂風(fēng)肆虐蘇格蘭，在西洛錫安將一輛卡車拋到兩輛小汽車頂部，卡車司機死亡，4人受傷。北威爾士拉爾社區(qū)房屋被洪水淹沒，救援人員正在努力營救被困居民。Margaret Smith坦然自若地面對這種境況：
(SOUNDBITE) (English) RHYL RESIDENT, MARGARET SMITH, SAYING: "I was a Girl Guide so I was well prepared. The water just came in, full stop. I was here in 1990 when the same thing happened. No problem."
拉爾社區(qū)居民MARGARET SMITH：“我是一名女童子軍，所以我做好了充分的準備。大水剛剛進來淹沒房屋。1990年同樣的事情發(fā)生時我也在這里。沒問題。”
Though some residents remained prepared, British authorities said the Thames Barrier would shut on Thursday night and warned people of - quote -"the most serious coastal tidal surge for over 60 years in England". In Germany, Northern regions braced themselves, as the storm approached the coastline, threatening winds of up to 140 kilometers per hour.
盡管一些居民做好準備，英國當(dāng)局表示，泰晤士河防潮閘將于周四晚上關(guān)閉，警告人們“英格蘭遭遇60多年來最嚴重的潮汐。”在德國，北方地區(qū)開始自救。颶風(fēng)已經(jīng)到達海岸線，風(fēng)速高達每小時140千米。
