＂WeCouldHaveAllDied!＂英语短文带翻译

 　　"We Could Have All Died!""我们可能都会死!"

　　Two bombing attempts in London failed last night. A Mercedes was parked in  front of a popular nightclub before closing time. There were at least 500  patrons inside the club. The Mercedes contained 11 full gasoline cans and 7  containers of nails. Apparently, the car was to be exploded by a call from a  cell phone, but someone, or something, goofed. The cell phone call didn't  trigger the explosion. Instead, some smoke started spewing out of the car.

　　昨晚伦敦发生了2次爆炸未遂事件。一辆奔驰停在了一个受欢迎的正在营业的夜总会那里，俱乐部里至少有500名顾客。奔驰车里装了11个满满地汽油罐和7个钉状物的容器。显然，这辆车看能会被一个电话而引起爆炸，但是一些人或一些事总会出错。手机通话没有引发爆炸，相反，一些烟开始从汽车里喷涌而出。

　　An ambulance happened to drive by. The driver, seeing the smoke, called the  police. The police arrived quickly, and a bomb expert immediately entered the  car and started disarming the vehicle. A few minutes later, the police were  notified about another car, also full of explosive material, parked behind the  nightclub. That vehicle was also disarmed. Twice in one night, deadly explosions  had failed to occur. The bad guys had lost--this time.

　　一辆救护车碰巧经过。司机，看到了烟雾，就报了警。民警迅速赶到，和一个炸弹专家立即进入车内，开始解除车辆。几分钟后，警方接到了通知，另一辆车也装满了爆炸物，停在夜总会的后面。车辆也被解除武装。两次事件在一个晚上发生，致命的爆炸没有发生。坏人已经失去了时机。

　　A new prime minister had just taken over in England. He said that God was  watching over London. Scotland Yard believed that terrorists were behind the  bombing attempts. When one patron at the nightclub found out how close he had  been to death, he said, "I'm so happy to be alive! Last night I was dancing all  night near the windows next to the street, and I would have been one of the  first to die. It's scary to think about. I won't be coming to this club for  another week or so."

　　一个新总理刚刚接管了英国，他说上帝在保佑伦敦。我将是第一个死的人，想到那些都觉得后怕，我大约一周左右都不会再到这家俱乐部。”
