________________________.While power was restored to Manhattan Saturday, the lower area, residents of other parts of the city, especially Staten Island and Queens, are becoming increasingly frustrated because their electricity has not been restored in the face of near freezing temperatures. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is urging people without power, especially the elderly, to head to a shelter to keep warm and get a hot meal. Meanwhile, New York officials caused confusion when they said free gas would be available at sites throughout the city, but later said emergency personnel and first responders would have priority over the general public.周六曼哈顿恢复了供电,然而在地势低洼地区及城里其它地区特别是斯塔顿岛和皇后区,居民们感到越发沮丧,因为在接近0度的条件下供电仍未恢复.纽约市长迈克贝鲁姆伯格呼吁,未得到供电的人们,尤其是老年人,前往避难所取暖及吃上一顿热饭.同时,纽约市官员也引发了一些混乱,他们先说全城各受理点均可得到免费汽油,后来又说应急和首批参与救援人员比普通民众具有优先使用权.
