　　青海省位于青藏高原的东北部，由欧亚板块与印度板块碰撞形成……。

　　The earthquake occurred on the Yunshu fault,about 300 kilometres (186 mi) south of the Kunlun fault. The Yunshu fault forms part of the Yushu-Garzê-Xianshuihe fault zone (玉树-甘孜-鲜水河断裂带), one of the most active fault zones in eastern Tibet.In history, many earthquakes with magnitude greater than 7 have occurred in the Xianshuihe fault zone,[此为地域名] for example, the magnitude 7.25 earthquake in the Luhuo area on March 24, 1923, and the Ms 7.6 earthquake on Febuary 6, 1973 in Luhuo.

　　这次地震发生在距昆仑断裂带以南约300公里（186英里）的玉树地区。(Joozone Note:在这里yushu也可以拼做：Yunshu)。玉树地区是“玉树-甘孜-鲜水河断裂带”的一部分，它是西藏东部最活跃的断裂带之一。历史上，大量的超过七级的地震都发生在鲜水河断裂带，比如，1923年3月24日，在炉霍地区发生的7.25级地震，和1973年2月6日在炉霍地区发生的MS 7.6级地震。翻译由作文地带提供。

Hence, the Shimian section of the Xianshuihe fault zone is speculated to be currently locked and have the possibility of producing strong earthquake in the future.

　　据史料记载，除玉树和石棉之外，几乎所有的发生在鲜水河断裂带的地震都非常的强烈。然而，在石棉县发生的一次强烈地震被发现，此次地震发生在约16万或17万年前。因此，鲜水河断裂带的石棉县地带已经被锁定为在未来可能会产生强震。
