    Lockerbie is a town in southwest Scotland. Most English speakers who know the name know it because of one night in 1988: a US passenger plane, Pan Am Flight 103, blew up in the air and fell on the town. Two hundred and seventy people died — everyone on the plane, and eleven people on the ground. The plane was carrying a bomb.

    Lockerbie is a town in southwest ScotlandLockerbie(洛克比)是蘇格蘭西南部的一個小鎮。 Most English speakers who know the name know it because of one night in 1988大多數聽過這個名字的英語使用者,是因為1988年的某一夜: a US passenger plane, Pan Am Flight 103, blew up in the air and fell on the town一架美國客機,Pan Am Flight 103(泛美103號班機),在空中爆炸,墜落在這個小鎮上。 Two hundred and seventy people died兩百七十人死亡—— everyone on the plane, and eleven people on the ground飛機上所有人,加上地面十一人。 The plane was carrying a bomb這架飛機上載有炸彈。

    Courts and governments later treated this as a terrorist attack linked to Libya: a Libyan man was given a life sentence in a Scottish prison, and the Libyan government later said it was responsible. People still say “the Lockerbie bombing” when they mean that crash.

    The town itself is a real place with ordinary life; the name in the news is almost always the disaster, not a travel guide.
