萨城周五热浪，追平百年记录！空气质量有哪些影响？
Sacramento heat may tie more than 100-year record this week. Will it worsen air quality?
萨克拉门托高温天气本周可能刷新100多年来的记录。它会使空气质量恶化吗?
Hot temperatures are back to scorching the Sacramento area with Thursday forecast at 99 degrees, Friday at 105 and Saturday at 100.
高温又回到了萨克拉门托地区，周四预报的是99华氏度，周五105华氏度，周六100华氏度。
The National Weather Service in Sacramento issued an excessive heat watch, warning of dangerous heat 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday.
位于萨克拉门托的国家气象局发布了高温预警，警告称周五上午11点至晚上10点将出现致命高温。
Eric Kurth with the weather service said that Friday’s 105-degree forecast would tie the record set in 1918. And while temperatures might be searing, it will get less hot through the weekend. Kurth said Saturday evening will be cooler with the Delta breeze coming in.
气象局的埃里克·库尔斯(Eric Kurth)说，周五的105华氏度预报将追平1918年创下的纪录。虽然气温可能会很高，但整个周末都不会那么热。库尔斯说，周六晚上将会更凉爽。
With summer-like temperatures easing into Sacramento, here’s what to know:
随着夏季般的气温逐渐进入萨克拉门托，以下是你需要知道的:

Temperatures and air quality are tied together.
温度和空气质量是紧密相连的。
According to the Center for Science Education, the temperature of the air affects how air and air pollutants move .
根据科学教育中心的说法，空气的温度会影响空气和空气污染物的移动方式。
“Some pollution, such as ground-level ozone, is made more efficiently in sunny, hot weather,” the center wrote on its website. “The reactions that create harmful ozone in our atmosphere require sunlight. In the summers and especially during extreme heat waves, ozone often reaches dangerous levels in cities or nearby rural areas.”
该中心在其网站上写道:“一些污染，比如地面臭氧，在阳光充足、炎热的天气里产生的效率更高。”“在我们的大气中产生有害臭氧的反应需要阳光。在夏季，尤其是在极端热浪期间，城市或附近农村地区的臭氧水平经常达到危险水平。”
The organization added that heat waves can worsen air quality because hot temperatures and stagnant air increase ozone and particulate pollution.
该组织补充说，热浪会使空气质量恶化，因为高温和停滞的空气会增加臭氧和颗粒物污染。
Protect yourself from air pollution
保护自己远离空气污染
You can mitigate the effects that heat waves have on air quality by avoiding exercise in high traffic areas and the outdoors when pollution levels are high , according to the American Lung Association.
根据美国肺脏协会(American Lung Association)的说法，你可以通过避免在交通繁忙的地区和污染水平高的户外运动来缓解热浪对空气质量的影响。

The association said you should also avoid burning firewood or trash, smoking indoors and gas-powered lawn equipment because it can increase pollution.
该协会表示，你还应该避免燃烧柴火或垃圾，避免在室内吸烟和使用燃气草坪设备，因为这会增加污染。

Avoid the heat
远离高温
To avoid the dangers of heat in Sacramento, the weather service advises people to drink a lot of water, avoid heavy activities outside from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and stay in air conditioned areas. If you need to stay in a cooling center in Sacramento County, there are a few to choose from Friday, including: Department of Human Assistance annex at 1725 28th Street, Sacramento; the DHA service center at 2450 Florin Road, Sacramento; and the DHA service center at 5747 Watt Ave., North Highlands.
为了避免萨克拉门托炎热的危害，气象局建议人们多喝水，避免上午10点到晚上8点在户外进行剧烈活动，并呆在有空调的地方。如果你需要呆在萨克拉门托县的冷却中心，从周五开始有几个选择，包括 epartment of Human Assistance annex at 1725 28th Street, Sacramento; the DHA service center at 2450 Florin Road, Sacramento; and the DHA service center at 5747 Watt Ave., North Highlands.
