cataclysmic
cataclysmic 英 [ˌkætə'klɪzmɪk] 美 [ˌkætə'klɪzmɪk]
adj. 大变动的；洪水的
But the gradual build-up of underground pressure can lead to occasional bursts of cataclysmic activity. 但是随之逐渐增长的地面下的压力可以引起偶然性的大变动的爆发。
We know that these events are among the most cataclysmic that the sky holds; but we understand only—and approximately—the how, not the why. 我们知道这些偶发事件是在天空拥有的最大的灾难；但我们仅仅——大概了解——只知其然，却不知其所以然。
- Something that’s cataclysmic is violently destructive. The word often refers to natural disasters, like a cataclysmic earthquake, but cataclysmic can describe other events as well as long as they’re bad enough, like the cataclysmic failure you had making meatloaf.
