聽力原文及翻譯

The blaze is one of three major wildfires that have ravaged the mountains east of Los Angeles, destroying dozens of homes and forcing the evacuations of thousands of people. While California is only now confronting the height of wildfire season, the state already has seen nearly three times as much acreage burn than during all of 2023.

這場大火是肆虐洛杉磯以東山區(qū)的三場大火之一，摧毀了數(shù)十所房屋，迫使數(shù)千人撤離。雖然加州現(xiàn)在才面臨野火季節(jié)的高峰，但該州的燒毀面積已經(jīng)是 2023 年全年的近三倍。

Much of this, Rynard said, "comes with the territory" and is part of living in a beautiful area. He said long-time residents have told him the massive wildfires are cyclical, much like the snow.

Rynard 說，這其中很大一部分“是自然而然的”，是生活在美麗地區(qū)的一部分。他說，長期居民告訴他，大規(guī)模的野火是周期性的，就像雪一樣。

To add to people's rattled nerves, Southern California was rocked by a 4.7-magnitude earthquake Thursday morning.

更讓人不安的是，周四早上南加州發(fā)生了 4.7 級地震。

Running Springs is dubbed the "gateway to the San Bernardino Mountains" and perched more than a mile high. The town was among the communities snowed in when a blizzard walloped the area in 2023. Now, the community has been doused with bright fire-red retardant to protect it.

Running Springs 被稱為“通往圣貝納迪諾山脈的門戶”，海拔超過一英里。 2023 年，一場暴風(fēng)雪席卷該地區(qū)，該鎮(zhèn)是被大雪封住的社區(qū)之一。現(xiàn)在，該社區(qū)已被澆上鮮紅色的阻燃劑以保護(hù)它。

"It can be tough to live in these environments," said Dawn Rowe, a San Bernardino County supervisor whose district covers mountain communities. "It's beautiful — a lot of people come to visit, and they find they might want to relocate for one reason or another. I would encourage everybody to spend an amount of time doing their due diligence."

“在這種環(huán)境中生活可能很艱難，”圣貝納迪諾縣主管 Dawn Rowe 說道，她的轄區(qū)覆蓋山區(qū)社區(qū)?！斑@里很美——很多人來參觀，他們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己可能因?yàn)檫@樣或那樣的原因想要搬遷。我鼓勵每個(gè)人都花一些時(shí)間做好應(yīng)盡的義務(wù)?！?/p>
