One week after the typhoon, some bridges were finally opened and bus service resumed in the country's most severely damaged areas.
颱風過後一週，一些橋梁終於重新通車，全國受災最嚴重地區的公車服務也恢復了。（恢復通車）
- 考點：resume「恢復」，bus service resumed＝「公車服務恢復」，指中斷之後重新繼續。depart「出發」、transport「運送」、correspond「相符」都不能表示服務恢復
- service：這裡是「（交通）班次服務」
- severely damaged：「嚴重受損的」

- assume 是「假定」，把某件事當作是真的，常接 that 子句。例：I assume that you are right.（我想你是對的）
- resume 還有名詞「履歷」，唸法不同（重音在前面）。
