The Storm Brought People Closer Together
Ben could hear strong winds outside his home in Alabama. Black clouds were making the sky very dark. With no light outside, it felt like midnight. The news on TV reported that a heavy rainstorm was in the area.
Everyone in the neighborhood was busy. Ben's dad was putting pieces of wood over the windows while his mom was making sure the flashlights and radio were working. She also put some candles and matches on the table.
暴风雨把人们拉的更近了
在阿拉巴马州，本能够听到他家外面刮起的大风。乌云使天空变得很暗。外面没有光亮，感觉像是午夜。电视上的新闻报道这一地区有大暴雨。
街区里每个人都在忙。本的爸爸正在把几块木头搭在窗户上，而他妈妈则确认手电筒和收音机都能正常使用。她也把一些蜡烛和火柴放在桌上。
Ben was helping his mom make dinner when the rain began to beat heavily against the windows. After dinner, they tried to play a card game, but it was hard to have fun with a serious storm happening outside.
Ben could not sleep at first. He finally fell asleep when the wind was dying down at around 3:00 a.m. When he woke up, the sun was rising. He went outside with his family and found the neighborhood in a mess. Fallen trees, broken windows and rubbish were everywhere. They joined the neighbors to help clean up the neighborhood together. Although the storm broke many things apart, it brought families and neighbors closer together.
当雨开始对着窗户猛烈地敲打时，本在帮助妈妈做晚饭。晚饭后，他们设法玩纸牌游戏，但外面正下着暴风雨，很难玩得开心。
起初本睡不着。当大约凌晨3点，风在逐渐变弱时，他终于睡着了。当他醒来时，太阳升起来了。他和家人到户外，发现街区凌乱不堪。吹倒的树、打破的窗户和垃圾随处可见。他们加入到街坊邻居当中，一起帮忙清理社区。虽然这场暴风雨割裂了许多东西，但是它使许多家庭和邻居们关系更亲近了。
