    At least 65 people have died after a 6.3-magnitude earthquake struck Christchurch on New Zealand's South Island.

    新西蘭南島城市基督城發(fā)生里氏6.3級(jí)地震，目前至少65人在地震中喪生。

    The tremor， which hit at 1251 （2351 GMT on Monday） only 10km （6.2 miles） south-east of the city at a depth of 5km （3.1 miles）， caused widespread destruction.

    地震發(fā)生在當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間中午12點(diǎn)51分（北京時(shí)間早上7點(diǎn)51分），震中距離城市西南僅10公里，震源深度近5公里，因而造成了大規(guī)模毀壞。

    The fire service said numerous people were trapped in buildings， and a state of emergency has been declared.

    消防隊(duì)稱(chēng)無(wú)數(shù)居民目前被困房屋內(nèi)。國(guó)家也宣布進(jìn)入緊急狀態(tài)。

    The damage is said to be far worse than after September's 7.1-magnitude quake.

    這次地震造成的傷亡據(jù)稱(chēng)遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)高于去年九月的7.1級(jí)地震。

    Two people were seriously injured by the first tremor， whose epicentre was further away and deeper. It caused an estimated $3bn in damage， but there were no fatalities.

    上一次地震的震中比這次距離城市更遠(yuǎn)、震源深度也更深。上次有兩人嚴(yán)重受傷，造成了約合3億元損失，但沒(méi)有人員死亡。

    There have been several aftershocks since last September's quake， with a 4.9 magnitude tremor hitting just after Christmas.

    在去年九月的地震之后，有數(shù)次余震發(fā)生。有一次4.9級(jí)的剛好發(fā)生在圣誕節(jié)之后。
