It is the heaviest in as many as five decades.
这是五十年来最严重的一次。
----------------------------------------------------------------------
两个地方需要注意。第一,“五十年”,这里用的词是decade(十年);第二,“在五十年中”,不要丢了介词in。
原句是:
In many areas, where snow has continued falling for several days, the accumulation has been described as the heaviest in as many as five decades.
在许多地区,大雪已连续下了很多天,积雪被称为五十年来最严重的一次。
