请教，下面的这句话怎么翻译呀? The researchers say that electronic devices are lying dormant, running their clocks,maintaining internal memories or displaying their settings,they consume around 40 terawatt hours of electricity in the US every year-enough to power a city such as Chicago or London.
they consume around 40 terawatt hours of electricity in the US every year-enough to power a city such as Chicago or London. ======================================================== 没有断好句子：
they consume around 40 terawatt hours of electricity in the US every year - enough to power a city such as Chicago or London.
非常感谢大家的指点！ 这句话来自2008年职称英语等级开始用书，题目为：The Price of Idleness 原文如下： The researchers say that while electronic devices are lying dormant, running their clocks,maintaining internal memories or displaying their settings,they consume around 40 terawatt hours of electricity in the US every year-enough to power a city such as Chicago or London. 借鉴上面的译文，整理如下： 研究者们说，当电子设备处于休眠状态时，其运行时钟，维持内部存储器、显示设置的工作，在美国每年消耗大约 4000M 度的电量 - 足够为芝加哥或者伦敦这样的城市供电。
