CNN News: 塞拉利昂首都弗里敦附近爆發(fā)泥石流

Another type of disaster, but this one natural, took place earlier this week in the West African nation of Sierra Leone. It was a mudslide that struck near Freetown, the nation`s capital. The area has gotten more than twice the amount of rain it normally gets this time of year.

It really is an intense time for this country and people are just mostly standing around in this area, shell-shocked. They can`t quite get over that this is happening again in a country that has suffered so much tragedy in such a short time, with the war, with Ebola, and now, this. They`re really just asking, why Sierra Leone and why now?
對該國來說，這真的是一個緊張時期，大多數(shù)民眾都震驚的站在受災(zāi)地區(qū)。他們似乎不太能接受悲劇再次發(fā)生在這個在如此短的時間里飽受如此多苦難的國家——戰(zhàn)爭、埃博拉疫情，現(xiàn)在又來了泥石流！他們也許真的很想質(zhì)問，為什么是塞拉利昂，為什么是現(xiàn)在?
Everywhere you go, there are tales of death and devastation, and hardly, anyone in this country will have -- will not be affected by this very, very tragic event.
無論你走到哪里，都上演著死亡和毀滅的故事。在這個國家，幾乎所有人都受到了這個非常、非常悲慘事件的影響。
