1. The prediction is wrong.
    预言是错误的.

    然而，即使可以预测，居住在地震频发区的人们还是应尽力预防灾难，办法是建造能够抵抗地表运动的房屋，同时做好个人准备。

3. For small pieces of weather----and to a global forecaster, small can mean thunderstorms and blizzards----any prediction deteriorates rapidly.
    对于小片的恶劣天气 -- 对一个全球性的气象预报员来说，"小"可以意味着雷暴雨和暴风雪 -- 任何预测的质量会很快下降。
