A truck(卡车) was washed(冲) into a 120-meter wide(宽的) river(河) as it crossed(穿过) a dam's bridge(桥) last week in Hainan Province. Four men in the truck had no way but to climb(攀爬) out onto the top(顶) of the vehicle(机动车), waiting for rescue. Five hours after being stranded(困住), the four were saved(被救) by local firemen.
