情態副詞

More specifically, Japan's most active volcano.

更確切地說，是日本最活躍的火山。

It's tucked into the bay of Kagoshima, an area many once called the pirate capital of Japan.

它坐落在鹿兒島的海灣裡，這裡曾被許多人稱為日本的海盜之都。

It's over 1100 meters tall and is so active that as of recently, it's been erupting as much as a third thousand times per year.

它高達 1100 多公尺，非常活躍，最近一年甚至噴發了高達三千次。

Entire YouTube channels are dedicated to capturing the eruptions, both big and small.

有專門的 YouTube 頻道在記錄這些大小噴發的畫面。

These scenes are a fairly regular occurrence, and the winds often carry the ash clear to the mainland.

這些景象相當頻繁，風常常會把火山灰吹到本州島。

The island is filled with evacuation shelters in case of eruptions and falling debris.

島上設有許多避難所，以應對噴發和落下的碎屑。

The streets are are covered in volcanic ash, and

children have to wear helmets on a near daily basis.

小朋友們幾乎每天都得戴著頭盔。

And this is perhaps the most interesting thing about Sakurajima.

而這或許是 Sakurajima 最有趣的地方了。

The people who actually choose to live on it.

就是那些選擇住在上面的人們。

You see, Sakurajima has several villages, towns even filled with people.

你看，Sakurajima 有好幾個村莊，甚至城鎮都住滿了人。

People once divided by a history of discrimination.

People who live on Japan's most active volcan.

住在日本最活躍的火山上的人們。

I've even chosen to live there myself for an entire week.

我甚至自己選擇在那裡住了一整週。

And honestly, I still can't believe that people choose to call this their home.

說實話，我還是不敢相信人們選擇稱這裡為家。

And unsurprisingly, I'm not the only one who feels that way.

而且不出所料，我不是唯一有這種感覺的人。

What's more is that it's not just people who were born and raised on Sakurajima who choose to stay.

更何況，不只是在 Sakurajima 出生長大的人選擇留下。

Many of the residents have actually moved there from other areas.

許多居民其實是從其他地方搬來的。

但那裡的生活究竟是什麼樣的呢？

And why would someone choose to live with the ever looming threat of volcanic eruption?

為什麼有人會選擇住在隨時可能發生的火山噴發的威脅下呢？

So you know that is, The last major eruption in Sakurajima was actually in 1914.

所以你知道，Sakurajima 上一次大規模噴發其實是在 1914 年。

And you can see the evidence of it to this day all around the island, there's even a shrine gate that was half buried in volcanic ash.

你至今仍能看到島上到處都是噴發的證據，甚至還有一個神社牌坊被火山灰半埋。

In fact, the eruption was so large that the lava flow connected the island to the mainland.

事實上，那次噴發規模之大，巖漿流甚至將島嶼與大陸連接起來。

Many say that the lava flow of this particular volcano is so slow that in the 1914 eruption, many residents even had time to tear down their homes.

許多人說，這個特定火山的巖漿流速度非常慢，在 1914 年的噴發中，許多居民甚至有時間拆除他們的房屋。

Sakurajima does have monitoring stations and professionals watching it 24, 7.

Sakurajima 有設置監測站，專業人員 24 小時全天候監控。

But have the daily eruptions desensitized the residents to the potential danger?

但日常的噴發，是否讓居民對潛在危險變得麻木了呢？

Most people seem to feel safe, but not everyone shares the same feelings of optimism.

大多數人似乎覺得安全，但並非所有人都抱持相同的樂觀。

And it shows as you wander through the island.

當你在島上閒晃時，就能明顯感受到。

Abandoned homes and buildings are everywhere.

Over the years, thousands have made the choice to leave.

Children all across Japan are typically given hats to wear to school.

日本各地的學童上學時，通常會戴帽子。

But here on Sakurajima, kids are required to wear protect protective helmets to and from their classes.

但這裡的 Sakurajima，孩子們上下學則被要求戴上防護頭盔。

It's all just become part of the usual lifestyle, A lifestyle that some see as normal, while others see it as risky or inconvenient.

這一切都成了日常生活的一部分，一種有些人覺得正常，有些人覺得有風險或不方便的生活方式。

There's one main restaurant on the island, which is quite popular for lunch, and one main cafe.

島上有一間主要的餐廳，午餐時段很受歡迎，還有一間主要的咖啡廳。

But in a week of living there, I didn't see it open even once.

但在島上住了一週，我一次都沒見過它開門。

And there are only three places on the island to really do your grocery shopping.

島上只有三個地方可以真正買到日常用品。

One supermarket and two convenience stores.

Fishing is so big here that the convenience stores even have an entire section for fishing goods and supplies, including a freezer for bait.

這裡的漁業非常盛行，連便利商店都有一個專門的區域販售漁具和用品，還設有冷凍櫃存放魚餌。

But not every day is filled with with relaxation and fishing.

但並非每天都充滿了悠閒和釣魚。

Every resident is given about 100 bags for collection and disposal of ash each year.

這裡的居民每年都會收到大約 100 個收集和處理火山灰的袋子。

The ash is such a big part of life here that everything, including graves, are given shelter.

火山灰是這裡生活的一大部分，就連墳墓都設有遮蔽物。

As dryers aren't common in Japan, most people hang their laundry indoors to dry, and

由於日本不常見烘乾機，大多數人會將衣物晾在室內，

dump trucks hauling loads of volcanic ash can be seen everywhere.

到處都可以看到載滿火山灰的傾卸卡車。

Sakurajima doesn't have a high school, and

the number of jobs on the island is quite limited, so the residents find themselves making their way to the mainland quite often.

島上的工作機會相當有限，所以居民們經常得前往本島。

There's a ferry that runs directly between the island and Kagoshima City every 15 minutes.

有一班渡輪每15分鐘直接往返櫻島和鹿兒島市之間。

And as it's used for so many to commute to and from work, this ferry runs 24 hours a day.

由於許多人需要通勤，這班渡輪全天候營運。

Even in the middle of the night, it still comes as often as every Thursday.

即使在半夜，也像每週四一樣頻繁。

So I actually committed to staying on the volcano for an entire week.

所以我其實承諾要在火山上待一整週。

And we're pretty much at the end of the week now.

我們現在差不多到一週的尾聲了。

Unfortunately, I only got nice weather for the first day, and

可惜的是，我只有第一天有好天氣，

Sakurajima has been clouded over every single day since.

But it is still visually spectacular and the people are so warm and welcoming.

但它仍然視覺上很壯觀，而且這裡的人們非常熱情好客。

When I first got here, I was really taken, backed by the fact that everyone said no.

我剛到的時候，我真的很震驚，因為每個人都說不行。

There's nothing really that special or dangerous about it.

And I was like, well, you live on an active volcano and not technically active like Mount Fuji, which shows next to no seismic activity or eruptions and has hikers going up on it.

我當時想，好吧，你住在一座活火山上，而且不像富士山那樣「技術上」活著，富士山幾乎沒有地震活動或噴發，還有登山客上去。

This is active, as in like hundreds of eruptions per year, smoke constantly billowing out of it.

這個是活的，意思是每年有數百次噴發，煙霧不斷地冒出來。

And having the top half of the volcano just locked off, you can't even access that area whatsoever.

而且火山的上半部被鎖住了，你根本無法進入那個區域。

It feels like this would be a dangerous place to live.

But having the chance to be here and spend an entire week here day and night, it doesn't feel dangerous.

但有機會在這裡待一整週，日日夜夜，感覺並不危險。

And the last major eruption was over 100 years ago.

上一次大規模噴發是超過一百年前了。

And if the rumors are to believe, the only deaths from that were actually people who tried to swim across over to Kagoshima and the surrounding areas and they drowned.

如果傳言是真的，那次噴發唯一的死亡事件，其實是那些試圖游到鹿兒島及周邊地區的人，他們溺斃了。

Apparently nobody was taken over by lava.

Dangerous or not, I will say that the people here are amazing and I have loved every minute of the week that I've gotten to spend here.

危險與否，我只能說這裡的居民真的很棒，我非常享受在這裡度過的每一分鐘。
