2018-11 【英译中】【 Passage 1 】 Newdrone footage gives a glimpse of the damagethat Hawaii ’s Big Island sustained in the wake of volcanic explosions in recent days. Smoke can be seen billowing off the lava as it creeps down roads and through wooded areas toward homes. Fires are visible with terrifying streams of brightness breaking through the surrounding areas of black. After a day of relative calm, Kilauea roared back in full force on Sunday, spewing lava 300 feet in the air, encroaching on a half mile of new ground and bringing the total number of destroyed structures to 35. 从无人机拍摄到的最新视频中， 可以大概了解到近日火山喷发后， 夏威夷大岛所遭受的损失情况。火山岩浆在道路上、树林里蔓延，直逼住家，岩浆所到处浓烟滚滚。在一片漆黑中可见多处大火， 火光十分刺眼。 基拉韦厄火山经过相对平静的一天后，周日又火力全开，将岩浆喷到 300 英尺高空，又侵蚀了半英里土地，共有 35 处建筑遭摧毁。 There have been 1,800 residents evacuated from their neighborhoods where cracks have been opening and spilling lava.

I ’m not sure what the count is , but we thought it was just continuing to go. Fortunately, seismicity has laid down and the volcanoes have gone quiet now.” But officials had cautioned that while the lava flow was quiet, it wouldn’t be for long. “More volcano es could open up, the existing ones could get active again. ” There’s a lot of lava under the ground so eventually it ’s going to come up. ” “这些火山变的很活跃， ”一位官员在周六举行的新闻发布会上称，
