STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. Flooding on a highway stopped about 30 trucks in Australia. Stuart Highway connects the southern part of the country to the Northern Territories. And right now, part of it is a temporary swamp caused by heavy rains. Nobody expects it to dry up soon. The truck drivers' employers told them to detour, go the long way. But the trouble is, it's Australia, the country that's a continent. And the detour adds 1,800 miles to the trip. It's MORNING EDITION.

史蒂夫·因斯基普，主持人：

早上好我是史蒂夫·因斯基普。澳大利亚一条高速公路上的洪水使大约30辆卡车停驶。斯图亚特公路连接该国南部和北部地区。现在，部分地区是暴雨造成的临时沼泽。没人能预料它能否很快干涸。卡车司机的雇主让他们绕道走，走很远的路。但问题是，澳大利亚是一个大陆。这条绕道为旅程增加了1800英里。这是早晨版。
