Taylor Swift is donating $1 million to help those in need in Louisiana after floods caused widespread disaster（大范围的灾难） in the state, killing at least 11 people. 

霉霉壕捐100万美金，给到前段时间因洪水受灾的路易斯安那州，在那场大洪水中，至少有11人死亡。

In a statement to the Associated Press（美联社） on Tuesday, Swift commented that the people of Louisiana had given her a warm welcome when she began her "1989 World Tour" in the state last year. 

据美联社报道，霉霉说到，路易斯安州的人民在她去年刚开始1989世界巡演时，给她热烈的欢迎，热情十足。

"We began The 1989 World Tour in Louisiana, and the wonderful fans there made us feel completely at home. The fact that so many people in Louisiana have been forced out of their own homes（被迫离乡） this week is heartbreaking," Swift, 26, said in the statement. 

我们去年1989巡演第一站在路易斯安那，那里的人们给了我家的感觉。得知因为灾难而被迫离乡的人们，我很是不舒服。

"I encourage those who can to help out and send your love and prayers their way during this devastating time," the singer added. 
我鼓励大家去帮助那些面对灾难的人们。

As well as those who lost their lives, thousands of people have been affected by the flooding that ravaged Louisiana over the weekend, prompting（促使） the governor to declare a state of emergency（宣布进入应激状态）. 
除了那些失去生命的人，成千上万的人们都因为洪水而受到影响，让政府不得不拉响警戒！

More than 20,000 people have been rescued（营救） across south Louisiana since the flooding started

从洪水发起到目前，已经超过2万人获救。

Widespread disaster：大范围的灾难

比如前段时间，武汉连续不断的大暴雨，也造成了 widespread disaster，很多人就were forced out of their hometown （被迫离乡了。）在整个widespread diaster 的过程中，武警官兵尽力的去rescue（营救）受灾群众。并且武汉政府也declare a state of emergency （宣布进入应急状态）。

霉霉虽然前段时间和卡戴珊夫妇进行了一次宇宙无敌大撕逼，但是霉霉做出的慈善贡献，也是数不胜数，希望大家继续支持前男友无数的霉霉，祝愿她和Loki叔叔有一个完美的Love Story。
