Rescuers in the United States searched through the tornado-splintered ruins of homes and businesses on Sunday, including a candle factory staffed with dozens of night-shift employees when it was flattened Friday night as the state of Kentucky's governor warned the death toll from the outbreak could top 100.
周日,美国救援人员在被龙卷风摧毁的房屋和企业废墟中进行了搜救,其中包括一家在周五晚上被夷为平地的蜡烛厂,当时工厂内有数十名上夜班的员工。肯塔基州州长警告称,此次灾害造成的死亡人数可能超过100人。
Factory workers sheltered in what was supposed to be the safest part of the building but it may not have mattered because twister Friday night was so big, according to Governor Andy Beshear.
据州长安迪·贝希尔说,工厂工人躲避在本该是大楼里最安全的地方,但这并不管用,因为周五晚上的龙卷风太大了。
