《荒野求生》之跟着贝尔去冒险第478期:强大的沙暴

 A powerful sandstorm can move millions of tons of sand at a time, 一次强大的沙暴 可以卷走几百万吨沙子

carrying it for hundreds of miles. 席卷而过数百英里

They occur when convection currents created by the intense heat 当炽烈的热浪与沙漠表面 猛烈摩擦产生热对流

whip across the desert surface,causing sand and dust to become airborne. 这时就会发生沙尘暴 沙子和灰尘就会漫天飞舞

They can last for days,covering everything in their path in a fine layer of suffocating¹ dust. 这往往可以持续好几天 所经之处 皆被令人窒息的灰尘所覆盖

There's only a light breeze here, but not for long. 现在这儿只是二级风  但一会就不是了

We're about to create our own perfect storm. 我们要自制最完美的沙暴

I mean, these are seriously industrial wind machines. 这些都是货真价实工业用的风力机

You got 40 horsepower Drive up winds up to 100 miles an hour  足足40马力 风速可达100英里/时

and basically create a massive hurricane-force sandstorm heading straight for me. 基本上可以创造一个直直冲向我的 大飓风级沙尘暴

You know, there are things I'm nervous about,you know, for sure. 有些事我也很担心 毫无疑问

You know, I'm gonna get sand-blasted by a hurricane-force sandstorm, 我会在飓风级沙尘暴中 接受喷沙

and, you know, I guess I'm concerned about just getting completely shredded². 我实在很担心 我会不会被撕成碎片

Also, it's super easy to suffocate³ in those things, 而且  在那种情况下人很容易窒息

you know, when you're just getting that amount of sand blasted over you. 如此大量的沙子 在你身边呼啸而过

But also my eyes,you know,I had quite a lot of sun and wind damage. 还有我的眼睛 我的眼睛受过多次晒伤和风损

Last time I saw the eye surgeon, he basically said,"Change your job" 上一次我见眼科医生时  他说 换工作吧

And keep out of the wind and keep out of the sun. 注意避风背

So I'm kind of hoping, you know,maybe he's not gonna watch this one. 所以我还是希望 他别看到这个

But it will be good.We'll get in there, do it, and we'll get out. 但一切都会好的 我们会成功  做完这事  就解脱了

You know, but there's no doubt,sandstorms are an intimidating⁴ thing, 但无疑 沙暴是很可怕的

and that's something you need to take super seriously. 你必须严肃对待
