位于智利北部阿塔卡马沙漠的圣何塞铜矿8月5日发生塌方,33名井下作业人员被困在地面以下近700米(2300英尺)处,救援难度极大。救援人员必须用特殊的钻机穿透深达688米的坚硬岩层,开凿一个新井直达矿工们被困的空间,才能救出他们。目前这种钻机已运抵出事的矿井,而打出能够救人的新井则可能要4个月,矿工们大约能在圣诞节前获救。智利卫生部长表示,政府已将这一信息告知受困矿工。同时,考虑到救援工具所占空间和救援通道的直径大小,智利政府要求受困矿工在井下“多活动”,避免长胖,以免因肥胖无法穿过救援通道。在等待救援期间,智利政府还向美国宇航局求助,为矿工们提供太空口粮,以便让他们能健康地活下去。另外,由于矿坑狭窄、封闭的空间跟太空站差不多,所以他们还邀请太空心理专家为矿工提供心理辅导,帮助他们调整心态。[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 xWUH#pWte P^FroG]
