1、Unit 6How to prepare for earthquakes第1頁 Ideally, people would like to know when an earthquake is going to happen and how bad it will be. In both Japan and China, people have long believed that earthquakes can be forecast. In Japan, scientists have wired the Earth and sea to detect movements. The Chi

For example, the Chinese have noted that before an earthquake, hens behavior changesthey refuse to enter their cages at night. They have also noticed that snakes come out of the ground to freeze to death and that do

Certain birds, like pigeons, also seemed to be especially noisy and were reported to be flying in unusual patterns before

4、the earthquake. Perhaps most interesting, and most easily measured, is a chemical change in ground water before a quake. Experimental data seem to indicate that the amount of radon (Rn) in the water under the surface of the Earth waxes before an earthquake.譯文句型第3頁Paragraph 2 People would also like t

5、o be able to prevent the great destruction of property caused by earthquakes. After all, most of the people who die in earthquakes are killed by falling buildings. Therefore, building structures that can withstand the power of earthquakes is a major concern. Steel seems to be the best material, but

6、not if it is welded to form a rigid structure. Many new structures are built with a new type of steel joint, an I-joint, which appears to be the most durable type of joint. 譯文句型第4頁 These joints of steel can move without breaking. Also, to prevent property damage, architects now design buildings so t

In addition, many new houses have relatively light roofs and strong walls. Concrete pillars for highway bridges that previously only had steel rods inside are now enc

They should regularly check and reinforce their homes, place heavy objects in low positions, attach cupboards and ca

9、binets to walls, and fasten doors so that they will not open accidentally during an earthquake .譯文句型第6頁 In addition to preparing their houses, people in these regions need to prepare themselves. They should have supplies of water and food at home and at work. It is best to store several gallons of w

Earth-quake survival supplies include a radio receiver, a torch, extra batteries, first aid supplies, a spade,

11、a tent, some rope, and warm clothing. Experts also suggest the following:譯文Paragraph 4第7頁 Keep a fire extinguisher handy. You should have one at home, at work, and in your car (if you have one). The fire extinguisher should be able to put out any type of fire. Have the proper tools to turn off gas a

Keep a pair of heavy, comfortable shoes or boots in your home, at work, and in your vehicle. If there is an earthquake, there will b

How will family members leave the area during the chaos following an earthquake? Everyone should agree on a meeting point ou

14、tside of the areaperhaps in a town several miles away. Also important is an arrangement for family members to communicate if there is an earthquake. If an earthquake happens in a large city, many of the telephone lines within the city are likely to be down. 譯文Paragraph 6第9頁 The few remaining working

15、 lines will be busy with the calls that naturally occur after a disaster and it will be difficult to call from one part of the city to another. It might, however, be possible to call outside the city. A sensible arrangement is to have all of the members of the family call to check in with a friend o

17、have an earthquake. Someday soon it may actually become possible to predict earthquakes with accuracy. However, even if prediction becomes possible, people who live in areas where earthquakes are a common occurrence will still have to do their best to prevent disasters by building structures that ar

Education concerning how to survive an earthquake should be a major emphasis for all government programs and earthqua

19、ke-related research projects.譯文第12頁第一段 從理想上說，人們希望知道地震什么時候發(fā)生，破壞程度會怎樣。在日本和中國，人們長久以來一直相信地震是能夠預測。在日本，科學家在陸地上和海洋中鋪設電線，以監(jiān)測它們運動。而中國人傳統(tǒng)做法是觀察動植物以獲取地震警示信號。比如，中國人注意到，地震之前母雞行為會有所異常：它們夜晚不愿進籠。他們還注意到，蛇會爬出地穴而凍死，狗會狂吠不已，甚至那些日常很平靜狗也會叫個不停。日本阪神地震發(fā)生之前，有匯報說大批魚群游到了水面。有些鳥，如鴿子，也顯得尤其聒噪，聽說地震前它們飛行方式也與往常不一樣?？赡茏钣腥?、也最輕易測量，是地震前地下水發(fā)

20、生化學改變。試驗數據似乎表明，地震前地下水中氡含量會增高。返回第13頁第二段 人們還希望能夠預防地震會造成重大財產損失。要知道，多數在地震中喪生人都是被坍毀建筑物砸死。所以，含有抗震能力房屋結構是關注重點。鋼似乎是最正確建材，但一旦被焊接成僵硬結構就不行了。許多新式結構都采取了一個新型鋼接合方法，即I形接合，它看來是最耐用一個接合。這種鋼接合在移動時不會斷裂。一樣，為了預防財產損失，建筑師如今設計樓房時會使房屋支柱和橫梁力度相等，而垂直支柱則深深插入堅實地基中。另外，許多新型房屋都采取了較輕屋頂和堅實墻壁。高架橋水泥柱先前只是在內部有鋼筋，如今外面也包上了鋼板。返回第14頁第三段 除了設法改進

21、建筑結構外，地震頻發(fā)區(qū)人們也需要為可能發(fā)生大地震做好防范工作。他們應該定時檢驗和加固房屋，將重物放在低處，將櫥柜和柜子貼墻放置，加固房門以防地震時意外脫開。返回第15頁第四段 除做好房屋防震外，這些地域人們還需要為本身做些防范。他們應該在家里和工作地貯備些水和食物。最好每人貯備幾加侖水。貯備一些能夠凈化水和毀滅病菌東西也很主要，這么就能夠安全地飲用其它起源水了。每人準備一周食物。地震救生貯備還包含無線電接收器、手電、備用電池、搶救用具、鐵鍬、帳篷、繩子和保暖衣物。另外，教授們還提出了以下提議：返回第16頁第五段 手邊備有滅火器。應該在住處、工作場所和汽車里(假如你有車話)都存放一個。滅火器應該

22、是能夠撲滅任何火災那種。有必要話，準備一些能關閉煤氣和自來水管道特制工具。準備一個備用戶外烹調和取暖用具，能夠準備一個便攜式露營灶和幾小罐煤氣。在住處、工作場所和汽車里放一雙厚重、舒適鞋或靴子。發(fā)生地震時會有大量玻璃碎片。輕便鞋子不能像厚重鞋子那樣保護好你雙腳。返回第17頁第六段 每個家庭都需要制訂地震應急計劃。怎樣讓一家人在地震混亂中安全離開？ 大家應該約定一個地震區(qū)外會合點可能是在幾英里外某個市鎮(zhèn)。一樣，協(xié)商好地震時家人聯絡方式也很主要。地震若發(fā)生在大城市，市里許多電話線路很可能中止，剩下為數不多可用線路會很忙，因為災難之后自然會有許多電話，要從市里一個地方打到另一個地方會很困難。但可能通

23、向市外電話是通。明智安排是，讓全部家人都給一個住在一百多英里之外朋友或親戚打個電話，以報平安。返回第18頁第七段 盡管科學家們仍無法預測地震，但對地殼中大板塊怎樣移動，板塊間壓力怎樣，地震怎樣發(fā)生，某地域發(fā)生地震普通概率為多少，他們了解得越來越多。在很快未來，準確預測地震將成為可能。然而，即使能夠預測，居住在地震頻發(fā)區(qū)人們還是應盡力預防災難，方法是建造能夠抵抗地表運動房屋，同時做好個人準備。在挽救生命和預防家庭損失方面，這些預防方法會發(fā)揮很大作用。教育人們怎樣在地震中求生，應該是全部政府規(guī)劃和地震研究項目標重點所在。返回第19頁watch for 尋找，等候Well be watching f
