美语听力材料:撒哈拉沙尘席卷美国南部

Source: 恒星英语学习网    2020-07-10   English BBS   Favorite  

Tonight a massive cloud of dust is on the move, and it is choking parts of the south this weekend. From florida beaches to texas skylines. Nicknamed godzilla for its size, the monster weather event hasn’t happened in half a century. This photograph from space shows it leaving the sahara desert a week ago, traveling 5,000 miles coating the Atlantic, Caribbean, and Gulf of Mexico with a layer of dry, dusty air. 

A normally sunny day in Puerto Rico turned hazy. the dust also darkened skies in Cuba. The tiny particles leading to poor air quality and threatening those with respiratory issues. In covid-19 hot spots like houston, the air pollution is mixing with the pandemic. But there is a bright spot with this phenomenon. Spectacular sunsets after a day filled with dust.
