2.And what's happened is that people living in the camps that were set up for the earthquake survivors, those camps are now flooded, and so for the second time in a year, people have been made homeless.

Not only did he come, but he saw her. 他不仅来了,而且还见到了她。

Not only does she speak Spanish, (but) she also knows how to type. 她不但会说西班牙语,还会打字呢。
