消防员扑灭加利福尼亚大火
California wildfires rage overnight, consuming more than 22,000 acres since Monday. The blaze began 100 miles east of Los Angeles in the San Jacinto Mountains and has forced thousands of local residents to evacuate. No injuries have been reported. On Thursday firefighters made progress in reinforcing a defensive line between the flames and the resort community of Idyllwild. The fire has reached four miles from Palm Springs, though no evacuation order has been given for the city of 46,000. Nearly 3,000 firefighters, 17 helicopters and 10 air tankers have been assigned to battle the blaze. The wildfire is one of the most severe of about 16 that crews are trying to contain in several western states.
一夜之间，加利福尼亚山火肆虐，自周一以来已经烧毁22,000多英亩的范围。山火从洛杉矶东部100英里处圣哈辛托山开始燃烧，数万当地居民被迫疏散。目前还没有伤亡报告。周四，消防员取得了进展，在火苗和爱迪尔维尔德的度假村之间建造了隔离带。火灾已经到达距离棕榈泉4英里的位置，然而，这座拥有46,000人口的城市还未接到撤离命令。接近3,000名消防员，17架直升机和10架灭火飞机受命扑灭大火。目前，消防员们正在西部几个州努力扑灭16起大火，而加利福尼亚这起大火是其中最严重的。
