洪灾主人泪别6000头猪 暴雨相关表达你都会吗

自6月30日以来,我国长江中下游沿江地区等地出现了入汛以来最强降雨过程,给许多地区造成严重洪涝灾害。这几天,我们频频看到有关多地被淹的新闻,连武汉的地铁也因为进水而被停运了……而下面的这个小哥就更悲惨了……连外媒都报道了他的悲伤遭遇:

This is the heart-rending moment an emotional farmer breaks down as he is forced to leave his 6000 pigs after floodwaters engulfed their pens.

The farm manager, Li Xiaobo, can be seen hugging the animals and bidding them a teary farewell as they await their fate in neck-deep waters. Torrential rains battered central China’s Shucheng county over the weekend, blocking rescue efforts at the farm in Bailin city.

The stricken animals had been trapped for more than 20 hours before rescue teams leaped to their rescue. It is unclear how many of the animals have been saved.

救援人员抵达现场时,这些被洪水围困的生猪已经在渍水中呆了超过20个小时。有多少只生猪获救尚不清楚。

Mr Li previously made a desperate plea to the public to help winch the pigs to safety after some of the animals drowned.

6000只生猪中有一些已经溺亡,李晓波焦急万分,向社会求援,希望有好心人能帮他把生猪们搬运到安全的地方。

Severe floods killed 93 people in central and southern China over the weekend and left at least 19 others missing.

中国多地暴雨成灾,不会关于暴雨的表达怎么行!快来跟着英语君一起细数关于暴雨的英文表达吧!

downpour 倾盆大雨

downpour这个词用来形容雨下的很大真的是太贴切了,就像是倒下来的一样。另外,downpour也是后街男孩在2007年发布的一首歌曲。

We were having a picnic, when suddenly there came a downpour.

我们在野餐的时候,突然下起了倾盆大雨。

新华社对于此次中国南部的暴雨也用了downpour这个词。

The average precipitation in the county was 261 mm from 8 a.m. on Tuesday to 8 a.m. on Wednesday. More than 3,300 hectares of crops and 318 houses in the county has been damaged by the downpours.

从周二早上8点到周三早上8点,石阡县的平均降雨量为261毫米。县中超过3300公顷的农作物和318幢房屋被洪水毁坏。

rain cats and dogs 下倾盆大雨

rain cats and dogs是下大雨的俚语表达,与“rain heavily”等同。

When I was on my way to school yesterday, it rained cats and dogs.

昨天,我走在去学校的路上时,下起了倾盆大雨。

red/orange/yellow/blue rainstorm alert 红色/ 橙色/ 黄色/ 蓝色暴雨预警

这几天,是不是天气预报总是用暴雨预警来提醒我们。其中红色级别最高。这里就奉上暴雨预警的相关表达啦~

当地气象台发布了今年第一个红色暴雨预警。

伴随着暴雨而来的很有可能就是洪水决堤。Bank除了“银行”的意思之外,还有“堤岸”的意思。
