“看海”英语怎么说

名词解释: 近年来,我国很多城市,包括北京、上海这样的大城市,在夏季降雨期间频繁出现内涝,部分原因是城市排水系统落后。你知道怎么用英语表达吗?

In recent years, many Chinese cities, including metropolises such as Beijing and Shanghai, have frequently been flooded during the summer rains partly because of their poor drainage systems.

Heavy rain means streets and communities are awash, with people joking the residents get to enjoy "sea views".

Premier Li Keqiang pointed out that the construction of underground storm drains in urban areas severely lags behind the rapid development of cities as the country rapidly urbanizes. It's necessary to speed up the construction of comprehensive drainage systems.

近年来,我国很多城市,包括北京、上海这样的大城市,在夏季降雨期间频繁出现内涝,部分原因是城市排水系统落后。

强降雨导致街道和居民区被淹,人们戏称可以“看海”。

指出,目前中国正处在城镇化快速发展时期,但地下管廊建设严重滞后。加快这方面的建设,很有必要!

【讲解】

文中的sea view就是“看海”的意思,其中view作名词表示“景色”时,多指从远处或高处所见的景色,如:the view of the bay in the starlight(星光下的海湾风景);而scenery则指某一国家或某一地区的整体的自然风景,如:the grassland scenery of Tibet(西藏的草原风景)

最后一段中的lag behind是动词短语,表示“落后,滞后”,如:The lame child lagged behind.(那个跛脚的小孩落在后面了。)
