Nevertheless,there have been some interesting developments in the field of controlling earthquakes.The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes.Here water was put into a layer(层)of rocks 4000 meters below surface of the ground.Shortly after this injection of water,there were a small number of earthquakes.Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other.When the water“oiled”the fault,the fault became slippery(滑的)and the energy of an earthquake was released.

然而，在控制地震方面已经有了一些有趣的进展。最有趣的进展与落基山兵工厂地震有关。在这里，水被注入地下4000米以下的一层岩石层。在这次注水后不久，发生了少量地震。科学家们认为注入岩石的水就像油一样作用于彼此。当水“润滑”断层时，断层变得滑滑，地震的能量就释放出来了。

Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes.They have realized that there is a connection between injection of the water and the earthquake activity.They have suggested that might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big destructive earthquakes,that is,scientists could inject some kind of fluid(液体)like water into faults and change one big earthquake into a number of small,harmless earthquakes.

科学家们仍在地震现场进行实验。他们已经意识到水的注入和地震活动之间有联系。他们提出，利用这一知识可能防止非常大的破坏性地震，也就是说，科学家可以向断层注入某种液体，比如水，把一次大地震变成许多小的、无害的地震。
