At some point, said Ross s. Stein, a geophysicist with the geological survey, "the stress overwhelms that friction," and a rupture occurs.
到了某个点，“压力压倒了摩擦力，”进行这次地质勘察的地球物理学者Ross s . Stein说，然后断裂就产生了。

Most of the time, friction between the plates causes them to stick together, and stress increases over time.
大多数时候，板块之间的摩擦力使两者紧紧挤在一起，并随着时间增加，挤压力逐渐增加。

Know what you're going to try and end up with in any given situation, and you'll be able to achieve it far more easily, with far less stress and friction.
