Around the world, households are being urged to prepare for disruption(中断；扰乱). But as threats of climate-related disasters, cyber-attacks and global instability ratchet up(逐步加剧), experts in building resilience say you’re better off(最好；处境更好) connecting with your community than stockpiling(囤积) toilet paper.
世界各地都在敦促家庭为各种 disruption 做好准备。但随着气候相关灾害、网络攻击和全球不稳定局势的威胁不断加剧，研究韧性建设的专家表示，与其囤积厕纸，不如与社区建立联系。
The UK government last month started a campaign urging people to put together(准备；组装) emergency stockpiles(储备物资). The British prime minister, Andy Burnham, says his includes beans, soup and Twiglets – claiming he couldn’t get by(勉强过活；应付) for too long without the Marmite-flavoured snack.
英国政府上月发起一项运动，敦促人们准备应急储备。英国首相安迪·伯纳姆表示，他的储备包括豆子、汤和 Twiglets 零食——他声称自己离不开这种马麦酱口味的零食。
The UK campaign has raised questions about whether Australians should do the same. A fake “emergency request” for Australians to stockpile essential goods purporting to be from the prime minister, Anthony Albanese, which circulated on social media, only raised the temperature on the debate.(一则假借总理之名的虚假“紧急请求”在社交媒体流传，加剧了争论。)
英国的这场运动引发了澳大利亚人是否应效仿的疑问。一则假借总理安东尼·阿尔巴尼斯之名、要求澳大利亚人囤积必需品的虚假“紧急请求”在社交媒体上流传，这进一步加剧了争论的热度。
