Promise of the Rainbow
彩虹的承诺
As Evan had predicted, the storm is over in less than half an hour.
正如艾凡所预测的，这场暴风雨不到半小时就结束了。
K:Oh, look, Evan! The sun is coming out again.
凯西:哦，艾凡，看！太阳又出来了。
E:Yeah. The more violent the storm, the shorter it lasts.
艾凡:嗯。暴风雨愈猛烈，持续的时间也愈短。
It can rain for days without much wind or driving rain, but this kind of violent storm doesn't usually last more than an hour.
老天可以没有狂风暴雨而连续下雨好几天，但是像这种猛烈的暴风雨通常不会超过一小时。
K:You were right on this one. Thank God that's over!
凯西:这次你说对了。感谢上帝，暴风雨结束了。
I was really scared for a minute there.
有那么一下子我真吓坏了。
E:More like 20 minutes.
艾凡:好象有二十分钟之久吧。
K:All right!
凯西:就算是吧！
E:Just kidding. I was scared, too, for a while. But I knew we'd be all right.
艾凡:只是开个玩笑。有一阵子，我也很害怕。但是我知道我们会没事的。
K:Oh, look, Evan! There's a rainbow!
凯西:哦，艾凡，看！有一道彩虹！
E:Remember the story from the Bible about the rainbow?
艾凡:记得圣经里那则关于彩虹的故事吗？
After the great flood that destroyed the world, God made the rainbow as a promise to Noah that He would never flood the world again.
在那场毁灭全世界的大洪水后，上帝创造出一道彩虹当作对诺亚的承诺说衪将不会再淹没全世界。
K:Yes, I remember. It's a beautiful story.
凯西:是的，我记得。那是一则美丽的故事。
E:And a beautiful rainbow. Come on, Kathy. Let's get back to the car and change our soaked clothes.
艾凡:还有美丽的彩虹。凯西，快点。咱们回车上去换掉这身湿衣服吧。
K:I'm right behind you.
凯西:我随后就来。
