China has mobilized动员 130,000 army and paramilitary[ ,pærə'militəri ] 准军事性的,起军事辅助作用的 troops 准军事部队to the disaster area, but the quake buckled roads and triggered mountain landslides, meaning that relief supplies and rescuers have struggled to reach the worst-hit areas.Mobilize是一个平时不太常用的单词
地震灾难发生之后,全世界对于中国政府mobilize抗震救灾力量的效率给予了好评,我们也可以对mobilize有一个全新的认识与了解。
中国政府此次动员的抗震救灾力量主要来自军警,上述文字中的paramilitary troops就是“准军事部队”的意思,也就是警察,包括武警。Paramilitary是西方国家通常用来表达警察和武警部队的英语词汇,在我国的汉英词典中,“武警”的译文通常是armed police,但这个表达远不如
paramilitary在英语国家中用的普遍。中国政府此次出动的抗震救灾力量中除了军人之外还有大量武警、森林警察、消防警察和普通公安干警,这些警力在英语中可以统称为paramilitary troops。
Buckled roads就是“阻挡道路”的意思,其中buckle这个单词在这里使用得十分生动形象,因为“阻挡道路”我们一般是表达为block road的,而buckle的意思是“使扭曲”,“使弯曲”,“使变形”,对于在汶川地震中毁坏的公路来说,buckle这个词显然是再形象不过的了。
triggered mountain landslides就是“引发山体滑坡”的意思,其中的mountain landslide就是“山体滑坡”的意思。slide属于美国英语用法,指的是(土、石、雪等的)崩落,崩塌。常见派生用法有landslide(山崩,滑坡,塌方),mud slide就是“泥石流”。Trigger这个词用在这里也十分形象,因为它通常表示由于外来力量的作用而造成的某种后果。
在美联社的另外一篇报道中,“引发”的英语对应词汇用的spark,其释义与trigger相似,如A strong aftershock sparked landslides near the epicenter of this week's powerful earthquake Friday, burying vehicles and again cutting off ravaged areas of central China.我们抗震救灾中所急需的各类“救灾物资”就是relief supplies。说到与“救”相关的词汇,我们往往会条件反射想到save,其实不然。在各种灾难救援行动中,rescue是一个更常用的词汇,下文的rescuers就是“救援人员”的意思,而“救援行动”本身在英语中就是relief。“救援人员”还可以表达为
relief workers,如美联社的这篇报道中就提到了以下一句话:Relief workers said food, water and tents were urgently needed.上文中的worst-hit areas指的就是此次地震灾害中受灾最严重的地区,比如说汶川,北川和青川等地。此次汶川地震造成的严重后果之一就是大量人员、尤其是正在学校上学的孩子们被掩埋在建筑物坍塌之后的废墟之中,在表示“废墟”的时候,英语中通常使用debris和rubble这两个单词。
如美联社的这篇报道提到:Rescuers saved a child from the debris of a school in the town of Beichuan 80 hours after the quake struck.They said they could hear weak calls for help from amid the rubble, Xinhua said.其中,debris所涵盖的范围比rubble更广泛,它可以泛指一切物体解体之后形成的碎片或者残骸,比如说飞机发生空难之后的残骸the debris of a plane,又如,The beach was littered with debris(海滩上到处都是残骸)。必须指出的是,debris是不可数名词。相对而言,rubble用在此次
Below is a special report on the earthquake and the rescue operations taking place.Rescue efforts are underway in China's Sichuan province following
Monday's devastating earthquake 灾难性的地震, which measured 7.8 on the Richter Scale 里氏震级.According to Xinhua news agency, nearly 15,000 people have died in the disaster, with as many as 24,000 more trapped under rubble 碎石,碎砖 from collapsing buildings and another 14,000 declared missing 申报失踪.Prime Minister Wen Jiabao has visited the area to personally oversee relief work(抗震)救灾工作, and is flying to the epicentre 震中 of the earthquake today.Chinese troops have been mobilised 调动 to carry out rescue operations and emergency aid 紧急救护 has been air-dropped 空降 into areas that have been cut off by the disaster.Bad weather has hampered 阻碍 relief efforts and in some cases rescuers have had to trek into the disaster area 受灾地区 by foot and search for trapped survivors 生还者 by hand as roads have been blocked by debris 瓦砾碎片.Some residents of the provincial capital 首府 Chengdu have chosen to sleep in tents and government shelters for fear of aftershocks 余震 causing more damage.One witness in Chengdu told the BBC the city's population is helping the relief work by donating 捐献 food and water for those affected in the surrounding countryside.Financial aid 经济救助 has been pouring in 大量涌进 from all over China, with the Chinese government pledging hundreds of millions of dollars.Substantial donations from other countries and humanitarian
organizations have also been pledged 承诺,给予(援助).
