【译文】

Six weeks after fires devastated parts of southern Australia, residents of one of the worst-affected towns have finally been allowed to go home.

在澳洲南部大火6周后，火情最为严重的村镇之一的居民们终被允许返乡。

Marysville was almost completely destroyed by bushfires on 7 February.

It has been sealed off ever since by the police, who have been searching for the remains of victims and investigating suspicions of arson.

马里斯维尔镇在2月7日的森林大火中几乎被全部焚毁。

该地此前已被警方封锁，为寻找死难者遗骸以及调查纵火嫌疑。




Marysville was one of the worst-hit towns in Australia's bush fires
马里斯维尔镇是此次澳大利亚森林火灾受灾最严重的地区之一


Bushfires ripped through south-eastern Australia early this year, killing more than 200 people.

Forty-five people died when fires tore through Marysville, north-east of the Victorian state capital, Melbourne.

The destruction of the picturesque town became a symbol of the bushfire disaster, the worst in Australia's recent history.

今年年初，森林大火在澳洲的东南部始燃，超过200人死于该火灾。

当火势蔓延到马里斯维尔镇（东北部的维多利亚州首府，墨尔本）时，有54人遇难。

这个风景如画的小镇的毁坏，标志着这次森林火灾是澳洲近年来最为严重的一次。


Search for clues
寻找线索

For six weeks Marysville has been sealed off as investigators searched for signs of arson and more victims among the charred wreckage of homes, businesses and cars.

马里斯维尔镇已被封锁6周，调查人员在那里搜寻故意纵火的迹象，同时在被烧焦的房屋残骸、商店和其中里寻找给多遇难者。

Victoria's Deputy Police Commissioner Kieran Walshe says the forensic work in Marysville is over.

"It's in excess of 4,000 buildings and structures that we've searched in the last couple of weeks, so it's been a massive exercise to get that done," he said.

"We're comfortable now that we've located and recovered all human remains," he added.

维多利亚州的副警察专员Kieran Walshe说，马里斯维尔镇的法医工作已经完成。

“过去的几周里，我们搜寻了超过4000座房屋和建筑物，完成这件事是个巨大的工程。”他说

“我们找到并且回收了所有遇难者的遗骸，这让我们感到满意。”他补充道。


The Reverend Norman Hart is the local parish priest in Marysville. He was made homeless in the fires, along with his wife and two children.

"It was a terrible shock to realise that everything we owned was in that small pile of rubble - a lifetime reduced to a pile of rubble," he told the BBC.

"People are pulling together. There's an amazing sense of 'we will go on and we will rebuild'. There's a sense of hope for the future."

He said it did not really matter whether the fires were arson or not - the devastation is real, he says, adding that the community is ready to move on.

Norman Hart是当地教区的牧师。他与他的妻子和两个儿子因这场火灾而变得无家可归。

他告诉BBC说：“这真是一个噩耗，当发现我们所拥有的一切都在这一小堆瓦砾中——一生（所有）减少成了一堆瓦砾。”

“人们都聚在一起。我们都有着一个不可思议的意识‘我们要继续（生活），我们要去重建（我们的家园）’。那是对未来的希望。”

他说无论此次火灾是否是有人故意纵火引起的，破坏也已经造成。另外他补充说他们社区已经准备好重建了。

Marysville resident Merrin Guest has been sifting through what remains of her home.

"It's just corrugated metal from the roof and a few chimneys and that's all that was left of our place when we went in. It was completely flattened," she said.

"I just had this huge sense of, 'Oh, thank goodness we can now start to move forward'," she said.

马里斯维尔镇居民Merrin Guest已经把家中还剩下的东西整理好了。

她说：“我们进去的时候，那里所剩下的都只是些屋顶上带波纹的金属片和几个烟囱。那里已完全被夷为平地了。”

“但是我只有一个想法‘喔，感谢上帝，我们可以现在就开始重建了。’”她说道。

A judicial inquiry is examining the causes of the deadly fire outbreaks and the responses of the emergency services.

一个司法调查（组）正在对这次极具毁灭性的火灾的起因和紧急情况服务（系统）的反应进行调查。
