外媒如何报道这次踩踏事件,用到了哪些词汇?我选了《纽约时报》一篇报道,带同学们读一读。
外刊原文
Zen Ogren, 32, found herself stuck in a packed and sweltering club alongside the narrow alleyway, a thoroughfare connecting a strip of bars to a busy subway station and a popular spot for taking photographs. Outside the club’s door, people were yelling, “Please don’t come out, people are dying,” she said. Security guards urged the crowds to not jostle, but many pushed forward, stepping on top of those who had fallen.
“They just wanted to go out,” Ms. Ogren said.
In the end, more than 150 people, most of them in their 20s and 30s, died, crushed under the surge of the crowd.
