救援
昨天下午,日本东北部近海发生里氏8.8级强烈地震并引发海啸,造成重大人员伤亡,目前灾后救援行动正紧急展开。我们来看一些英文中有关“救援”的说法。
英语中说到“救援”,用得最多的就是 rescue 这个词。它既可以做动词,也可做名词,有个常用词组叫 come / go to one’s rescue 或者 come / go to the rescue of...,就是表示“援救……”。接下来我们来看几个例句:
He made a valiant attempt to rescue the child.
他勇敢地试着去救那孩子。
The rescue is at hand.
救援近在咫尺。(at hand 在手边;即将到来)
The police car went in full career to the rescue.
警车开足马力前去救援。(in full career 全速地)
另外,“援救人员”就是 rescuer,“援救队”叫 rescue team,“援救行动”叫 rescue operation 或者 rescue mission。例:
We were on the brink of disaster when the rescue team arrived.
当救援队到达时,我们已经处于灾难的边缘。(on the brink of 濒于,在……的边缘)
The rescue operation lasted three days.
救援活动持续了三天。
与 rescue 用法非常相似的还有 aid,它也可以同时做名词和动词,同样可以说 come / go to one’s aid。例如:
Soldiers went to the earthquake-stricken area at top speed to aid the injured person.
军人火速赶往地震灾区展开救援。(at top speed 火速)
The rescuers came to his aid in time.
救援者及时赶来给予他救助。
最后说一下,first aid 是“急救”的意思,我们每个人都应该掌握一些基本的急救措施,那样也许能在关键时刻拯救一条生命。
