Lesson 62 After the fire

Firemen had been fighting the forest for nearly three weeks before they could get it under control. A short time before, great trees had covered the countryside for miles around. Now, smoke still rose up from the warm ground over the desolate hills. Winter was coming on and the hills threatened the surrounding villages with destruction, for heavy rain would not only wash away the soil but would cause serious floods as well. When the fire had at last been put out, the forest authorities ordered several tons of a special type of grass-seed which would grow quickly. The seed was sprayed over the ground in huge quantities by aeroplanes. The planes had been planting seed for nearly a month when it began to rain. By then, however, in many places the grass had already taken root. In place of the great trees which had been growing there for centuries patches of green had begun to appear in the blackened soil.

參考譯文

消防隊(duì)員們同那場(chǎng)森林大火搏斗了將近3個(gè)星期才最后把火勢(shì)控制住。就在不久之前，參天大樹(shù)還覆蓋著方圓數(shù)英里的土地。而現(xiàn)在，發(fā)熱的地面上仍然升騰著煙霧，彌漫在荒涼的山丘上。冬季即將來(lái)臨，這些山丘對(duì)周圍的村莊具有毀滅性的威脅，因?yàn)榇笥瓴粌H會(huì)沖走土壤，而且還會(huì)引起嚴(yán)重的水災(zāi)。在大火最后被撲滅后，森林管理當(dāng)局訂購(gòu)了好幾噸一種生長(zhǎng)迅速的特殊類型的草籽。飛機(jī)把這種草籽大量地撒播在地上。飛機(jī)撒播近一個(gè)月后，開(kāi)始下起雨來(lái)。然而到那時(shí)，很多地方的草已經(jīng)生了根。一片片的綠草開(kāi)始出現(xiàn)在這片燒焦的土地上，代替了多少世紀(jì)以來(lái)一直生長(zhǎng)在那里的參天大樹(shù)。
