First up this Thursday on CNN STUDENT NEWS: a tragic incident on the busiest railroad in North America, Amtrak Northeast Corridor connects Washington, D.C. to Boston, Massachusetts.
首先今天周四的CNN学生新闻说的是美国北部的一条繁忙的铁路上的事故。这条铁路链接着华盛顿特区到马萨诸塞州的波士顿地区。
On Tuesday, train number 188 was carrying 238 commuters and five crew members from the capital to New York. When it got near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the train derailed. One witness said there`s a place where the track curves around a warehouse, and then it looked like the engine kept going straight, off the track, followed by the cars it was pulling, seven of them came off the track. At least seven people were killed.
周二时候,188号列车搭载着238名乘客和5名机组成员从首都纽约出发,在经过宾夕法尼亚州费城附近的时候出轨。一名目击者称列车途经阶段是一条弯路铁轨然而列车却直着冲了过去随后脱轨,其中七名乘客被甩出车厢。至少七人死亡。
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash. It says it preliminary data shows the train was traveling at a 100 miles per hour at the time it derailed. That`s twice the speed limit on that section of the track. Passengers were thrown from their seats against walls, doors, each other. More than 200 people were injured, several of them thanked first responders who arrived within minutes to rescue victims.
美国国家运输安全委员会正在对事故进行调查。其表示根据最初数据显示列车脱轨当时行驶速度高达100公里每小时。这个速度是该段限速的两倍。车厢内乘客被甩到车厢墙壁上,门上,互相乱撞。大约有200多人受伤,其中几名乘客对事发后几分钟之内赶到的救援人员表示了感谢。
