After the disaster trifecta in Japan--quake, tsunami, nuclear crisis--Californians are asking if they might be next. The state's two reactors sit near seismic faults, tsunamis are a risk, and evacuation plans are iffy. Did someone say 'prepared'?
disaster trifecta: or a trifecta of disasters 三大災難
ex: I am horrified and flabbergasted by the trifecta of disasters in Japan.
reactor:反應爐
seismic: before noun] relating to or caused by an earthquake seismic activity/waves
seismic faults: 地震斷層
sit near somewhere
iffy: not certain or decided
ex: Simon's still kind of iffy about going to Columbia.
眼看著日本發生三大災難- 海嘯、核災、地震，加州居民不禁問道：下一個會是我們嗎？加州的兩座反應爐都位在地震斷層附近，且有發生海嘯的風險，此外，加州的撤離計畫尚未定調。誰說加州「已經準備妥當」？
