Bangkok under?the state of emergency

??????? 在好萊塢電影里，每逢山崩海嘯、毒氣泄漏或外星人入侵，政府首腦都會(huì)用沉重的語(yǔ)氣宣布國(guó)家進(jìn)入“緊急狀態(tài)”。那么，你知道怎么用英語(yǔ)表達(dá)這個(gè)意思嗎？

???????在英語(yǔ)中，“緊急狀態(tài)”對(duì)應(yīng)的說(shuō)法是“state of emergency”。維基百科是這樣定義的：

???????A state of emergency is a governmental declaration that may suspend certain normal functions of government, alert citizens to alter their normal behaviors, or order government agencies to implement emergency preparedness plans. Such declarations usually come during a time of natural disaster, during periods of civil disorder, or following a declaration of war...

?????? “宣布進(jìn)入緊急狀態(tài)”是“proclaim a state of emergency”或“declare a state of emergency”；“處于緊急狀態(tài)中”是“under a state of emergency”；“在某范圍內(nèi)實(shí)施緊急狀態(tài)”是“impose a state of emergency in...”；而“解除緊急狀態(tài)”是“l(fā)ift the state of emergency”。例如：

???????Guatemala declared a state of emergency on Saturday as heavy rain from Tropical Storm Agatha lashed the Central American nation.

???????The Thai government has imposed a state of emergency in 24 out of the country's total 76 provinces, including capital Bangkok, to ensure security amid political crisis.
