Question

一个英文句子翻译

People have been mobilized to build defenses and drain flooded land as heavy rains continue to fall.求解释呀英语达人们！！！谢了 句型结构不太懂 drain flooded land 是什么意思哦~~

Answer 1

drain flooded land：排干被洪水淹没的土地，其实就是疏水。
这个句型应该还是很简单的：
people have been mobilized to... 人们都被调动起来……（做两件事）
1、to build defenses，筑防洪堤/或构筑防水工事
2、to drain flooded land，泄洪/或疏水
最后是个状语：as heavy rains continue to fall，随着雨不停地下。
