  印尼火山百年最大喷发又造成至少70多人死亡 (At Least 70 More Killed in Biggest Indonesia Volcano Eruption Since 1870s)
  
  印尼的默拉皮火山喷发,这是默拉皮一个多世纪以来最大的一次,已造成至少70多人死亡。大批房屋被焚毁,整个地区笼罩在白色的火山灰烬下。
  
  当局星期五说,火山在过去11天里连续喷发,星期五的这次喷发是迄今为止最为猛烈的一次。
  
  高达750摄氏度的火山熔岩伴随雷鸣般的咆哮声从山顶倾流而下,山口火舌吐出的火山灰高达四公里。很多逃离火山喷发的人被烤焦了的衣服和毯子烫伤。
  
  自火山喷发以来,死亡人数已经上升到大约120人,但随着救援人员从火山灰和碎石中拖出死难者尸体,预计死亡人数还会增加。
  
  火山专家说,星期五的火山喷发是自1870年代以来最大的一次。鉴于这一火山的不可预测性,印尼官员将“危险区域”扩大到方圆20公里。
  
  Indonesia's Mount Merapi has erupted with its biggest explosion in more than a century, killing at least 70 more people, incinerating homes and blanketing the region in white ash.
  
  Authorities said Friday this latest in a series of eruptions over the last 11 days was the most ferocious yet.
  
  Searing 750-degree (Celsius) gas flowed down the mountainside in a thunderous roar, and deadly plumes spewed ash four kilometers above the crater. The heat was so intense that clothes and blankets were fused to the injured as they fled for safety.
  
  The death toll from the eruptions has now risen to about 120 and is expected to increase as rescuers pull bodies out of the ash and rubble.
  
  Volcano experts said the Friday blast was the biggest since the 1870s. With the unpredictability of the volcano, authorities widened the danger zone around the mountain to 20 kilometers.
