1
Scott Hurst is joining us now with more.
2
So Scott, so many fires, so many evacuations.
3
Marcia, a lot of devastation in the province right now
4
and it's not just limited to one area and we've been seeing the video, some of it looking apocalyptic with many properties reduced to rubble,
5
ultimately lives upended, hundreds of homes destroyed.
6
You talked about the Okanagan Indian Band Reserve.
7
According to the chief, more than 200 homes have been destroyed by the Bradley Creek wildfire burning near Okanagan Lake.
8
And according to the chief, taking a helicopter tour of the damage of the aftermath, saying ultimately it looked like a war zone.
9
That fire specifically started on Friday and quickly forced the community to leave their homes behind.
10
All told, dozens of emergency orders and alerts remain in effect across multiple regions in the province,
11
meaning thousands of people have been forced to flee.
12
Thousands have had their lives upended and many know that they're going back to homes being lost, but also many others, Marcia,
13
right now don't know what it's going to be like
14
when they're able to go home and what it will look like when they go home.
15
So really a lot of unease in the province.
16
You heard from some residents there talking about what it was like to escape the flames.
17
Some of them had minutes just to get away from the flames
18
and we saw some of the videos of how close the encounter was of those people fleeing their homes, fleeing their communities to get away from the fire.
19
And if we can put up a map of the fire picture right across the country, it shows how many fires are still burning in Canada.
20
All told, the red is out of control and you see the large swath across many provinces.
21
Also, we have a map of the fire weather index, which really shows the intensity with the values that we see in this.
22
The red, that indicates higher intensity and larger flames.
23
In British Columbia right now, there are more than 116 active wildfires.
24
Roughly 50 are burning out of control.
25
And so far in that province alone, the flames have chewed through more than 300,000 hectares of land this year, Marcia.
26
Scott, what about the firefighters?
27
What are they up against?
28
Have they been able to get a handle on any of these fires?
29
As I mentioned, there are still about 50 that are out of control.
30
The Bradley Creek fire specifically is just shy of 3,000 hectares, also still listed as out of control.
31
So still a lot of work to get the upper hand on dozens of fires, with major fires still burning in the Fraser Canyon, Thompson-Nicola, and East Kootenai regions.
32
Even with all the devastation we've already seen, B.C has a difficult week ahead.
33
We're just getting in August, which is typically July and August, the hottest, driest months, which can fuel the most wildfire activity.
34
And the B.C.
35
Wildfire Service says temperatures are expected to increase into the mid-30s
36
in many parts of the province this week with dry lightning also in the forecast.
37
And that has the potential to be a perfect recipe for quite a significant growth in the fire.
38
So there is still a significant fight ahead to get a handle on a lot of these flames
39
and ensure that lives and livelihoods are protected, Marcia.
40
Scott Hurst for us.
41
Scott, thank you so much for that update.

このレッスンについて
「‘It looked like a war zone’: Over 200 homes destroyed in Bradley Creek, B.C. wildfire」を使って、シャドーイングで英語を練習しましょう。

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
