Local officials said two miners have managed to dig themselves out when their mine shaft collapsed after heavy rain.

当地官员表示，升降机井在大雨后坍塌，两名矿工成功地挖掘逃生。

But dropped down the same mine shaft" … A rat is killed, a man is broken, a horse splashes" .

但如果真的落在了同一个矿井“… … 老鼠被摔死了，人被摔残了，马被摔 ”。

Teenage boys clamber down mine shafts 30 to 50 meters deep. Younger teens then yank the rocks up with a pulley.

In Arizona, crews rescued a man trapped in an old abandoned mine shaft after he fell down 100 feet on Monday.

You ever try to fit into a mine shaft?

你有试过钻进一个矿井里头吗？

And unlike pumped hydro or a mine shaft,   these can be constructed pretty much anywhere.

与抽水蓄能或矿井不同，它们几乎可以在任何地方建造。

So versus, you know, versus a single mine shaft with a  single weight, it's very difficult to get economies of scale.

因此，您知道，与具有单一重量的单个矿井相比，很难获得规模经济。

The official cautioned that the death toll was provisional as several other civilians have been reported missing and other bodies are believed to have been thrown down into (the) mine shafts.

这名官员警告说，这一死亡人数是暂时的，因为据报道还有几名平民失踪，还有其他尸体据信被扔进了矿井。

Unlike  pumped-hydro or mine shaft batteries there's a big materials cost to creating these vaults,   which some say could outweigh any carbon savings.

与抽水蓄能或矿井电池不同，建造这些拱顶的材料成本很高，有人说这可能超过任何碳节省。

But if you don't happen to have  a spare mine shaft lying around then don't you worry because there's  a more high-tech option: Energy Vault.

但是，如果您碰巧没有闲置的矿井，那么您也不必担心，因为有一个更高科技的选择：Energy Vault。

The main difference between the two, though, is that where a mine shaft uses one single weight, a typical Energy Vault would use thousands,   all housed in a structure above ground.

不过，两者之间的主要区别在于，矿井使用一个重量，而典型的 Energy Vault 将使用数千个重量，所有这些都位于地面上的结构中。

J.B. SHaldane, in a 1926 essay" On Being the Right Size" wrote that" You can drop a mouse down a thousand-yard mine shaft; and, on arriving at the bottom, it gets a slight shock and walks away" .

J.B.沙尔丹在1926年的一篇题为“大小合适”的文章中写道：“你可以把一只老鼠放在一千码深的矿井里；当老鼠到达井底时，它会受到轻微的震动，然后走开。”

A canal that drained the lake into the Gulf of Mexico began flowing backwards as the water level fell, briefly creating the tallest waterfall in Louisiana, while muddy geysers erupted from mine shafts.

随着水位下降， 一条将湖水排入墨西哥湾的运河开始倒流，短暂地形成了路易斯安那州最高的瀑布，同时泥浆间歇泉从矿井中喷发。

In the event of a blockade of its trade routes, for instance, South Africa has filled disused mine shafts with enough crude oil to provide the nation with at least two years' worth of petroleum.

例如，在其贸易路线遭到封锁的情况下，南非已经用足够的原油填充了废弃的矿井， 足以为该国提供至少两年的石油。

And then when the energy's needed, of course, they're lowered, it turns the motors  that generate and discharge the electricity Just like a mine shaft battery,   Energy Vault generates power by driving a turbine with a gravity fed weight.

然后当需要能量时，当然，它们会降低，它会转动产生和释放电力的电机就像矿井电池一样，Energy Vault 通过驱动重力重力涡轮机来发电。
