據外媒報道，印度今年夏天的氣溫可能會破紀錄，成為史上最熱的一年。

英國《獨立報》稱，最近印度多地受到極端高溫天氣影響，一些地區的最高氣溫逼近50攝氏度。

It has put Rajasthan and the central state of Madhya Pradesh on alert for "severe heat wave conditions". Both states often record some of the highest temperaturesat the peak of summer.

印度西部的拉賈斯坦邦和中部的中央邦正遭受「極端高溫天氣」的威脅。這兩個邦在盛夏常常會創下印度最高溫天氣的紀錄。

But this year has been particularlyscorchingin other places, too, from the northern plains tothe Deccan plateauin the west and the south.

但今年其他印度地區也被熱浪席捲。高溫天氣從北部的平原地區蔓延到西部和南部的德干高原。

更可怕的是，已經有「幾十名」印度人因超高溫天氣而死亡。

Scorching temperaturesand water shortages have caused 「heavy casualties, including dozens of deaths by sunstroke and other heat-related causes」, according to The Weather Channel.

據氣象頻道報道，印度炎熱的氣溫和缺水已經引起了「嚴重的死亡」，「幾十人因中暑和高溫相關的原因死亡」。

別說人類，連生活在印度的一些動物，最近也被熱死了...

A troupe of monkeys died from suspected heatstroke in India as scorching temperatures that have lasted more than a weektake a mounting toll on humans and animals, media reports said.

據媒體報道，印度的一群猴子最近死亡；他們很可能是因高溫天氣而中暑身亡。印度的高溫天氣已經持續一周多了，對在印度的居民和動物都造成了極大的傷害。

以小編有限的生活經驗，實在沒法想像在50攝氏度左右的環境，人類要如何生活，或是生存...

這讓我不禁好奇和擔心，印度人民最近到底是以什麼樣的生活狀態？

我們來看下BBC的報道：

Theunrelenting heathas been hardest on the homeless, as well as those who have no choice but to keep working despitethe soaring temperatures- such as street vendors, traffic police and rickshaw drivers.

印度無家可歸的人以及那些必須頂著飆升的氣溫出門賺錢養家糊口的人（比如街上的小攤販，交警和人力車夫），是當前難以忍受的酷熱天氣最大的受害者。

但在其他一些城市，比如北部旁遮普邦的阿姆利則，公共泳池讓居民能稍稍緩解一下。

光著腳出門被燙傷這種事真的會發生，不是危言聳聽...

Meanwhile, in Churu, normal life has stopped. Hanuman Verma, a local journalist, said that residents arehunkering downin their homes, avoiding work and refraining from shopping during the day.The roads are so hot they could burn bare feet, he said.

於此同時，在丘魯鎮，當地居民的正常生活停止了。當地一位記者Hanuman Verma說居民都靜靜地待在家中，白天不出去工作，也不出門買東西。這位記者補充道，丘魯鎮的馬路也變得炙熱，要是光著腳在地面上走，會被燙傷的。

"I have lived here all my life but have never felt this hot before," said Mr Verma. "It is horrid."

他說：「我一輩子都生活在丘魯鎮，但我從來沒經歷過這麼高溫的天氣。這種天氣太可怕了。」

政府部門都通知老百姓們，午後不宜出門；如果必須得出門，得包裹好頭部並隨身帶瓶水保命。

Devkaran Gurawa, Churu"s deputy chief medical and health officer, said the city had arranged extra cooling in hospitals and asked residentsnot to venture outside after 11am. If leaving home is unavoidable, he said, people were advised tocover their heads with a towel and carry a water bottle.

丘魯鎮當地的醫療健康官員Devkaran Gurawa說，該城市已經在醫院安裝了更多的製冷系統，並告知當地居民在上午11點以後不要待在戶外。這位官員強調，如果必須得出門的話，他們建議居民用毛巾包裹頭部，並隨身攜帶一瓶水。

這種超高溫天氣對於印度農民來說，也是一把辛酸淚...

哪怕如此高溫，有些農民還是堅持不懈地養著牲口和作物。畢竟渴死了牲口，養死了作物，很可能就沒有經濟來源了...

In the western-central state of Maharashtra, farmers struggled to find water for thirsty animals and crops.

在印度中西部的馬哈拉施特拉邦，農民們正發愁從哪兒給快渴死的動物和莊稼弄水。

「We have to sourcewater tankersfrom nearby villages as water reserves, lakes and rivers have dried up,」 said Rajesh Chandrakant, from one of the worst-hit districts.

一位生活在受高溫天氣影響最嚴重地區的百姓Rajesh Chandrakant說：「我們這裡的水庫，湖泊和河流都幹了。我們實在沒辦法了，只能去附近村莊的洒水車里接水。」

外國網友們也在推特上吐槽印度的酷熱天氣。我光是看看，都感覺到熱。
