108Before we hear today's education report,在我们听到今天的教育报告之前
109Dan Novak joins me to introduce the topicDan Novak跟我来介绍这个话题
110and to explain some of the words and phrases you will hear.并解释你将听到的一些言语。
111Hi, Dan.嗨,丹,你好吗?
112Welcome.欢迎
113Hi, Ashley.嗨,艾许莉。
114Today's report is about the Brown v. Board of Education,今天的报告是关于布朗诉教育委员会,
115a landmark case that was decided 70 years ago.70年前判决的划时代案件
116The case is famous for striking down school segregation这个案子以打破学校隔离而闻名
117and the separate-but-equal doctrine.和分别但平等的理论。
118For listeners who don't know much about this,对于不太了解此事的听众来说
119can you explain what separate-but-equal and segregation mean?你能解释什么是分离但平等与隔离吗?
120Sure.当然
121So, to segregate something means to set apart from a group所以,分离一些东西 意味着将一个群体分开
122or to isolate or divide.或孤立或分裂。
123To segregate in this context means to divide based on race or class.在这种情况下进行隔离意味着基于种族或阶级的划分.
124Before 1954, it was legal to keep schools separate based on race.1954年以前,根据种族将学校分开是合法的.
125In many parts of the U.S. at that time, and especially in the South,在当时的美国许多地方,特别是在南方,
126virtually every part of society was segregated.几乎社会每个部分都被隔离。
127Blacks and whites even used separate water fountains and bathrooms.黑人和白人甚至使用单独的水喷泉和浴室.
128So, separate-but-equal was the legal justification for segregation.因此,分离但平等是隔离的法律依据。
129It was established in the Plessy v. Ferguson case in the late 1800s,它在1800年代后期的普莱西诉弗格森案中成立,
130which ruled that segregation was constitutional.它裁定隔离是符合宪法的。
131The court ruled that segregation could be legal法院裁决,隔离可以合法。
132as long as the facilities for each race were equal.只要每个种族的设施是平等的。
133This, of course, could never be possible.当然,这是不可能的。
134And in the report we are about to hear,我们即将听到的报告
135you say there is now school segregation in a de facto way.你说现在学校实际上存在隔离现象
136Can you explain what you mean by that?你能解释你的意思吗?
137Sure.当然
138So, segregating students based on race is illegal所以,根据种族隔离学生是非法的
139and has been since the Brown ruling.自从布朗裁决以来
140But segregation remains, even if it is not by law.但是,隔离仍然存在,即使它不是根据法律。
141Many American cities, for example, are highly divided on class and race lines.例如,许多美国城市在阶级和种族线上高度分裂.
142So, many school districts, which are based on geography, are also segregated.因此,许多基于地理的校区也被隔离.
143De facto is Latin and means in fact.实际是拉丁语,实际上就是意思.
144So, schools are now segregated in fact, but not in law as they were before 1954.因此,现在学校实际上被隔离,但不像1954年以前那样在法律上被隔离.
145Okay.摆
146Thanks for answering those questions, Dan.谢谢你回答这些问题,丹
147Now, let's listen to today's education report.现在,让我们听听今天的教育报告.

151It also struck down the principle of separates but equal,它还废除了分离但平等的原则,
152which was used as the basis for U.S. government's policies related to racial segregation.这被用作美国政府有关种族隔离政策的基础。
153President Dwight Eisenhower famously sent federal troops to southern states德怀特·艾森豪威尔总统出名地派联邦军队到南方各州
154to enforce the decision.执行决定。
155Today, American schools cannot legally restrict students based on race.今天,美国学校不能以种族为由在法律上限制学生.
156But because of long-held economic divides and other issues,但由于长期存在的经济鸿沟和其他问题,
157some schools have become segregated in a de facto way.有些学校实际上已实行隔离。
158Some researchers say that despite the continuing ban,一些研究人员说,尽管继续禁止,
159school segregation has gotten worse over the years,学校隔离状况逐年恶化

170The study defined intensely segregated as该研究将严格隔离定义为:

173up from 7% in 1988, the report found.与1988年的7%相比有所上升。

175schools of the South are dramatically less segregated南方学校的隔离程度明显降低
176than the apartheid conditions that had always existed before Brown.比布朗之前 一直存在的种族隔离状况
177然而,Orfield和Flager补充说:

184For Latino students, the school average was about 75% non-white.对于拉丁裔学生来说,学校的平均水平约为75%的非白人.
185Education experts say segregation especially hurts Black and Latino schools.教育专家说隔离特别伤害黑人和拉丁裔学校.
186This is because they are often underfunded这是因为他们往往资金不足
187and have higher rates of teacher shortages.教师短缺率较高。
188Non-white school districts receive $23 billion less funding非白种学校区获得的资金减少230亿美元
189than mostly white school districts,而不是大部分的白色学校区,

54The bacteria also survived well in soil and would not be very costly to produce.这些细菌也在土壤中幸存下来,生产成本不会很高。
55Lars Bakken is with the Norwegian University of Life Sciences.拉尔斯·巴克肯是挪威生命科学大学的成员.

76by about half.大约一半。

78This suggested to the researchers that their bacteria would not change or hurt the soil.这向研究人员表明,他们的细菌不会改变或伤害土壤。
79The bacteria that researchers used is found naturally in anaerobic digesters,研究人员使用的细菌自然存在于厌氧消化器中,
80machines that are already being used to turn organic waste products like cow manure into biofuels.已经用于将牛粪等有机废物产品转化为生物燃料的机器。
81The researchers said the bacteria are not genetically modified.研究者表示细菌没有转基因.

86Carini thinks using the bacteria is worth it.卡里尼认为利用细菌是值得的.

88that's pretty cost-effective, he said.他说这很符合成本效益
89However, Bakken pointed out that farmers are not paid for reducing nitrous oxide emissions.然而,Bakken指出,农民没有为减少一氧化二氮排放而付费。
90He thinks there must be additional incentives for emissions reductions.他认为,减排必须有额外的激励措施。
91The task for the authorities is to install policy instruments当局的任务是安装政策工具。
92that makes it profitable in one way or another, he said.他说这样或那样就能赚钱
93Hoagland, the Purdue professor, said more research in field conditions would likely be neededPurdue教授Hoagland说,可能需要对实地条件进行更多的研究。
94before the bacteria could be used worldwide.在细菌可以被全世界使用之前
95That is because soil is different in places around the world.这是因为世界各地的土壤不同。

170Hi, Dan.嗨,丹,你好吗?
171Welcome.欢迎
172Hi, Ashley.嗨,艾许莉。
173Today's story was about home visiting programs for parents of young children.今天的故事是关于幼儿父母的家访节目.
174How do these differ from more traditional child care services?这些与较传统的儿童保育服务有何不同?
175As many American parents know, child care can be very expensive.许多美国父母知道,儿童保育费用可能非常昂贵.
176The think tank Center for American Progress says child care for an infant美国进步智库中心说 照顾婴儿
177costs an average of $16,000 a year.每年平均花费16 000美元。
178That is 21% of the median income for a family of three.三口之家收入中位数的21%。
179That would include services like nannies or daycare.这将包括诸如保姆或日托等服务。
180So, yeah, really costly.所以,是的,非常昂贵。
181Home visiting is not around-the-clock child care,家访不是全天候照看孩子,
182but trained professionals go into homes and work with parents with babies但是训练有素的专业人员会回家 和有孩子的父母一起工作
183to give them advice on things like breastfeeding or how to get babies safely asleep.给他们一些建议 比如母乳喂养 或者如何让婴儿安全睡觉
184For older toddlers, they teach parents how to be supportive对于年长的幼儿,他们教父母如何支持
185in helping them read or play, for example.例如,帮助他们阅读或演奏。
186These programs are often free of charge这些方案经常是免费的
187and supported by the Federal Department of Health and Human Services.并得到了联邦卫生和公众服务部的支持。
188As I mentioned in the story,正如我在故事中提到的,
189many immigrant families have been able to take advantage of home visiting services.许多移民家庭能够利用家访服务。
190Between work and other responsibilities,在工作和其他责任之间,
191it can be hard for some parents to center all their attention on their children.有些家长很难把注意力集中在孩子身上。
192Recent immigrants might not be familiar with the American education system最近移民可能不熟悉美国的教育制度
193and might not know the best way to prepare their children for kindergarten.可能不知道如何让孩子做好幼儿园的准备
194So for now, home visiting services are mostly targeted towards recent immigrants or poorer families.因此,目前,家访服务主要针对最近移民或贫困家庭。
195You note in the story that about 17 million families nationwide could receive home visiting services.您在故事中注意到,全国大约有1 700万个家庭可以得到家访服务。
196But in 2022, only about 270,000 did.但到了2022年,只有约27万.
197Why is that?为什么?
198Yes, these programs have been proven to help prepare children for school是的,这些方案已证明有助于儿童为上学做准备
199and strengthen relationships between parents and children.并加强父母与子女之间的关系。
200But a relatively small number of families have used home visiting services.但使用家访服务的家庭相对较少.
201That is because of a lack of funding.这是因为缺乏资金。
202Smaller local organizations need to operate home visiting programs,较小的地方组织需要 运行家访方案,
203like the one mentioned in the story from Colorado.就像故事中提到的科罗拉多州的那个
204But without enough funding, those local organizations are not able to operate.但是,如果没有足够的资金,这些地方组织就无法运作。
205But yearly funding for the home visiting program is set to double to $800 million by 2027.但是,到2027年,家庭探访方案的年度资金将增加一倍,达到8亿美元。
206Experts say that large increase should get more parents to take advantage of the program.专家表示,大幅增加应该让更多的家长利用这个计划.
207All right.好吧,我们走。
208Thanks so much for joining me today, Dan.谢谢你今天能来 丹
209You're welcome, Ashley.不用谢,阿什利。

213and experiencing fun situations.和经历有趣的情况。
214详情请访问我们的网站 learningenglish.voanews.com.
215In this next report, Dan Friedel tells us about how criminals are using technology to steal cars.在下一份报告中,丹·弗里德尔讲述了犯罪分子是如何利用技术偷车的.
216We learn about a few steps people can take to protect cars from being stolen.我们了解到人们可以采取一些步骤来保护汽车不被偷.
217Pay careful attention to the word thieves.细察贼语.
218We will talk more about the term after the report.我们将在报告之后更多地谈论这个词。
219Most recent cars have an electronic key that lets the owner get into and start the car.近代车厢有电子钥匙,让车主进入并启动车厢.
220The electronic key is called a fob to those who know about the technology.电子密钥对于那些了解该技术的人来说叫做fob.
221The fob sends a short-range signal to the car.fob向车发出短程信号.
222As the owner gets close, the fob unlocks the door.随着主人接近,fob解锁了门.
223But the new technology also makes it easier for criminals to open the car without the key.但新技术也使得罪犯在没有钥匙的情况下开车更加容易.
224When you lock your car and take the key with you inside your home, the fob does not stop sending its signal.当你把车锁上,把钥匙带进你家里时,fob不会停止发送它的信号.
225Thieves who have special equipment known as scanners will pass by streets with a lot of cars.拥有被称为扫描仪的特殊设备的盗贼会带着大量的汽车经过街道.
226If the scanner shows that a fob is sending a signal, the thieves use a device that clones the signal and opens the car doors.如果扫描仪显示一个fob正在发送信号,盗贼会使用一个复制信号并打开车门的设备.
227Government officials around the world have asked carmakers to warn car buyers of the risks of the new technology.世界各地的政府官员要求汽车制造商警告汽车购买者新技术的风险.
228They also have asked them to make the fobs more secure.他们也要求他们提高安全性。
229Until then, what can you do to prevent your car from being stolen?在那之前,你能做什么来防止你的车被偷?
230Steve Launchberry与美联社分享了一些建议.
231He is the head engineer of automotive security company Thatcham Research, based in Britain.他是位于英国的汽车保安公司Thatcham Research的总工程师.
232It's relatively easy for drivers to protect themselves, he said.他说,司机保护自己相对容易。
233The first tip is to put your key into a protective container or bag when you get home.第一个提示是回家后把钥匙放进保护容器或包里.
234One kind is called a Faraday bag.一种叫做法拉第包.
235They are not very costly.费用并不高。
236The bag is made from a special metal material called mesh that blocks the signal from the fob.包由一种叫做网状的特殊金属材料制成,它阻断了从fob发出的信号.
237Just do not forget to put any extra keys you have into that bag, too.别忘了把多余的钥匙放进袋子里
238Some advice that is easy to find online says people should put their keys into the microwave or freezer to prevent their signal from being stolen.一些容易在网上找到的建议说,人们应该把钥匙放进微波炉或冷冻箱,以防止他们的信号被盗.
239Launchberry said that does not work and it could harm your key.发射莓说这不行 可能会弄坏你的钥匙
240You may have seen large locks that go across the steering wheel in television advertisements many years ago.你可能看到很多年前在电视广告中 穿过方向盘的大锁
241It turns out they are still useful.事实证明它们仍然有用。
242They may be considered old school, but the presence of big locks that are easy to see makes car thieves turn away.他们可能被认为是古老的学派,但有容易看见的大锁的存在使得汽车盗贼转身.
243The only problem is that you must take extra time to unlock the device and put it away before you can drive away.唯一的问题是,你必须花更多的时间来解锁设备,并把它收起来,然后才能开车离开.
244Some car makers permit owners to deactivate the signal sent out by the fob.一些汽车制造商允许车主关闭fob发出的信号.
245For Ford, Honda, and Audi, owners can use their car's touchscreen system to find the correct way to turn off the signal.对于福特,本田和奥迪,车主可以使用他们的汽车触摸屏系统,找到正确的方式关闭信号.
246For Toyota, you can turn off the signal by pressing a combination of buttons on the fob.对于丰田,可以按下fob上的组合按钮来关闭信号.
247Read your car's owner's manual to be sure how to do this.读你车主的手册 确定如何做到这一点。
248Some car makers include motion sensors on their key fobs.一些汽车制造商将运动感应器包含在他们的钥匙软体上.
249If the fob has not been moved in a while, the fob turns off.如果fob在一段时间内没有移动,fob会关闭.
250If you buy a used car, some experts suggest that you get your keys reprogrammed in case the earlier owner still has a key.如果你买了一辆旧车,一些专家建议你重新编程你的钥匙,以防之前的车主还有钥匙.
251Launchberry said some cars have a new system called a Controller Area Network, or CAN.Launchberry说,有些汽车有一个新的系统,叫做控制区域网络,或者CAN.
252The network permits different parts or components of the car to communicate with each other.网络允许汽车的不同部件或部件相互通信.
253He said,他说,
254Some thieves are trying to join the CAN through some physical electronic connection to unlock the car.一些小偷试图通过一些物理电子连接加入CAN以解锁汽车.
255They can do this by removing a headlight and plugging in a device that lets them in the car's network.他们可以通过去掉一个车头灯并插入一个让他们进入汽车网络的设备来做到这一点.
256The device can send a signal, such as UNLOCK or START, to the central system.该设备可以向中央系统发送信号,如UNLOCK或START.
257Launchberry said,发射莓说,
258This is where the physical lock can cause thieves to change their mind and force them to move on.这就是物理锁能引起盗贼改变主意,迫使他们继续前进的地方.
259Owners can also consider electronic immobilizers.所有人还可考虑电子机动车。
260These devices prevent a car from moving even if a thief gets into the internal system.这些装置阻止汽车移动,即使小偷进入内部系统.
261However, immobilizers can be costly.然而,不动武器可能代价高昂。
262I'm Dan Friedell.我是丹・弗里德尔。
263Before the report, we asked you to pay careful attention to the word thieves.在报告前,我们要求你仔细注意盗贼这个词.
264Can you remember when you heard it?你还记得你听到吗?
265You heard the term used several times in the report.你听到报告中多次使用这个词。
266Let's listen to the first example.愿听第一义譬.
267Thieves who have special equipment known as scanners will pass by streets with a lot of cars.拥有被称为扫描仪的特殊设备的盗贼会带着大量的汽车经过街道.

274Both the singular thief and the plural thieves have the same vowel sound, ee.奇异的贼和复数的贼都有相同的元音,ee.
275thief, thieves贼,贼
276The big difference between the two words is the consonant or consonant sounds at the end of the word.两个词之间的巨大区别是词尾的相和或相和的声音.

278This is a voiceless sound.这是一个无声的声音。

13Engineers at the Chinese company X-Robots are developing human-like robots中国X机器人公司的工程师正在研发人型机器人
14at a factory in China's northeastern coastal city of Dalian.在中国东北沿海城市大连的一家工厂工作.
15Their goal is to increase the ability of the company's robots to show facial expressions and emotions.他们的目标是提高公司机器人展示面部表情和情感的能力.
16Robot body parts like arms, feet, and heads are spread out around the factory.机械人的身体部位如手臂,脚,和头部分布在工厂周围.
17The parts are made from a soft, movable material called silicone.部件由一种软的,可移动的材料制成,称为硅酮.
18And human-like robots in different stages of construction can be found nearby.而处于不同构造阶段的类似人类的机器人可以在附近找到.
19Drawings of robot designs are on a wall.机器人设计的图画在墙上
20Li Boyang is X-Robots' chief executive.李波扬是X-Robots的首席执行官.
21He said, we have our own software and algorithm teams.他说,我们有自己的软件和算法团队。
22Algorithms are commands or rules that a computer program follows.算法是计算机程序遵循的命令或规则.
23Robots need them to operate.机器人需要他们来操作。
24Li said, there are many basic models and algorithms that are commonly open source, which everyone uses.李 said说,有许多基本模型和算法是常用的开源,大家都使用.
25Open source programming is usually freely available to software developers to use in their systems.开源编程通常可以免费供软件开发者在其系统中使用.
26But Li said that his company is centering its efforts on how to get the artificial intelligence, or AI,但是李说,他的公司正在集中努力 如何获得人工智能,或AI,
27to recognize and express expressions and emotions.承认和表达表达和情感。
28In a demonstration, for example, an X-Robots worker moved her head, smiled, and stuck out her tongue.例如,在一次示威中,一个X-Robots工人移动了她的头,微笑,并卡住了她的舌头.
29A human-like robot then copied her movement using small motors placed in several spaces in its head.一个类似人类的机器人然后用放在头部几个空间的小马达复制她的动作.
30Li said, we are also working on the foundation model.李说,我们也在研究奠基模型.
31The model we're making is multimodal and capable of emotional expression.我们制作的模型是多模式的,能够表达情感.
32Multimodal AI can process different kinds of signals and can react to them.多式联运AI可以处理不同种类的信号,并能对信号作出反应.
33For example, a multimodal system could react to video, text, sound, or touch.例如,多式联运系统可以对视频、文本、声音或触摸作出反应。

43I'm Jill Robbins.我是吉尔・罗宾斯。
44Medical device companies Abbott and Dexcom make small devices that attach to the skin and monitor the amount of glucose or sugar in the blood.医疗设备公司Abbott和Dexcom制造小型设备,附着在皮肤上,并监测血液中的葡萄糖或糖量。
45These devices were first made to help people with diabetes.这些装置最初是为了帮助糖尿病患者.
46Diabetes is a medical condition that prevents the body from properly digesting sugar and turning it into energy.糖尿病是一种阻碍身体适当消化糖并转化为能量的病症.
47The devices permit people to make changes to their diet or take medication, such as insulin, to help control their glucose levels.这些装置允许人们改变饮食或服用胰岛素等药物,以帮助控制其葡萄糖水平.
48But the devices are also being used by some Olympic athletes.但一些奥运运动员也正在使用这些装置.
49The monitors help runners and swimmers learn how the food they eat affects their energy level.监视器帮助跑者与游泳者学习他们吃的食物如何影响他们的能量水平.
50Dutch long-distance runner Abdi Njaai is paid to wear a device made by Abbott.荷兰长途长跑运动员阿卜迪·恩贾伊(Abdi Njaai)因佩戴阿博特制造的装置而获得报酬.
51Njaai was the silver medal winner at the Tokyo Olympics.倪佳怡是东京奥运会银牌得主.
52He will try to get another medal during this summer's Olympics in Paris, France.他将在法国巴黎举行的本届夏季奥运期间尝试获得另一枚奖牌.
53The Games begin on July 26th.运动会于7月26日开始.
54Njaai pays attention to his sleeping and eating each day, so it makes sense that he would pay attention to the sugar in his blood.Njaai每天注意睡觉和吃东西,因此他很会注意血液中的糖.
55That's your energy, actually.这就是你的能量,实际上。
56That's your fuel.这是你的燃料。
57We have to monitor that, said Njaai.Njaai说,我们必须监视它。
58The information that comes from the monitor helps Njaai get closer to an effortless or stress-free run.从监视器获得的信息帮助Njaai更接近于无功或无压力的运行.
59The devices are called continuous glucose monitors, or CGMs.这些设备被称为连续葡萄糖显示器,或CGMs.
60In the past, they required a prescription from a medical doctor.过去,他们要求医生开处方。
61But now, although there is no official proof that the devices help with athletic performance,但是现在,虽然没有官方证明 这些装置有助于运动表演,
62the companies that make them are getting permission to sell them to regular people.制造它们的公司正得到许可,可以把它们卖给普通人。
63I do see a day where CGM is certainly going to be used outside of diabetes in a big way,我确实看到有一天 CGM 肯定会被用 在糖尿病之外的方式,
64Dexcom的首席操作官Jacob Leach说
65In March, the U.S. gave Leach's company permission to sell its Stilo device without a prescription.3月,美国准许利奇公司在没有处方的情况下出售其Stilo装置.
66It is expected to go on sale this summer.预计今年夏天会继续出售。
67Abbott pays Kenyan marathoner Eliud Kipchige to wear its device.阿博特支付肯尼亚马拉松选手埃利乌德·基普奇奇格佩戴其装置.
68He has won the last two Olympic marathons.他赢得了最后两次奥运会马拉松比赛.
69He uses the device to monitor his calories and the intensity of his workouts.他用这个装置来监视他的卡路里和他锻炼的强度.
70Abbott said its device, called Libre Rio, will also be available soon without a prescription.Abbott说,它的装置叫做Libre Rio,很快也会在没有处方的情况下得到.
71Both companies saw sales growth of over 20% for their wearable CGMs for diabetes patients in 2023.两家公司2023年糖尿病患者可穿戴的CGM的销售增长超过20%.
72A research company called Global Data sees the growth continuing at a rate of 15% per year through 2031,一家名为Global Data的研究公司认为,到2031年,增长率每年为15%,
73as more people become interested in using the devices to help with weight loss.更多的人有兴趣使用这些设备来帮助减轻体重。
74Sports researcher Philippe Larsson sees the CGMs as a way to better understand the exertion levels of serious athletes.体育研究者菲利普·拉尔森(英语:Philippe Larsson)认为CGM是更好地理解严肃运动员的锻炼水平的一种方式.
75Larsson is a professor at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences.拉森是瑞典体育与健康科学学院的教授.
76A big guesswork for endurance athletes has always been,对耐力运动员来说,一个很大的猜测是,
77am I training hard enough, or am I training too hard?我训练得够辛苦了 还是训练得太辛苦了?
78It seems with CGMs we have a better understanding, he said.他说,CGMs看来我们有更好的理解
79Larsson also works with a company called Svexa, which researches sports performance.Larsson还和一家名为Svexa的公司合作,该公司研究体育表演.
80He has already examined CGM data from some athletes and sports teams.他已经检查了一些运动员和体育队的CGM数据.
81Larsson notes there is little proven science about how to help athletes perform better using the data that comes from the monitors.Larsson指出,对于如何利用来自监视器的数据帮助运动员更好表现,几乎没有经过验证的科学.
82Most researchers cannot give you the exact answers.大多数研究者都无法给出准确的答案
83In five years we will know ten times as much as we do now, he said.他说,五年后,我们将知道10倍于现在。
84But the possibility of finding important data means many people are looking into monitoring blood glucose.但寻找重要数据的可能性意味着许多人正在研究血糖监测.
85Greg Cox is a sports dietitian and associate professor at Bond University in Australia.格雷格·考克斯(Greg Cox)是一名体育饮食学家,也是澳大利亚邦德大学的副教授.
86He works with swimmers, rowers, and track and field athletes.他与游泳运动员,划艇运动员以及田径运动员合作.
87Cox said a recent test of top athletes proved inconclusive.考克斯说,最近对顶尖运动员的测试证明没有结果.
88The test restricted an athlete's calories before an intense exercise session.测试在激烈的锻炼前限制了运动员的卡路里.
89He and Larsson said they were unsure how valuable a CGM would be for a regular person who used it without medical supervision.他和拉尔森说,他们不确定CGM对于一个没有医疗监督使用它的普通人会有多重要.
90But for the companies that make the devices, the non-medical market is large.但对于制造设备的公司来说,非医疗市场是巨大的.
91Abbott says it believes the CGMs will help people lead healthier lives with improved energy, mood, focus, sleep.Abbott说,它相信CGMs会用更好的能量,情绪,注意力,睡眠来帮助人们过上更健康的生活.

94Stars about the size of our sun are not the most common ones in the Milky Way galaxy.关于太阳大小的恒星并不是银河系中最常见的恒星.
95Much smaller stars are far more common.较小的恒星更常见。
96Of all the stars in our galaxy, these small stars host the most planets.在我们银河系的所有恒星中, 这些小恒星宿主最多。
97Scientists are studying the planets of these small stars in the search for worlds that may support life.科学家们正在研究这些小恒星的行星 寻找可能支撑生命的世界
98New research is providing understanding about how planets form around these small stars, called Very Low Mass Stars, or VLMS.新的研究正在提供对行星如何围绕这些小恒星形成的理解,称为甚低质量星,或VLMS.
99The chemistry of the planet-forming disks of gas and dust surrounding them is different from similar disks observed around stars like the Sun.围绕它们的行星形成气体和尘埃的磁盘的化学性质与太阳等恒星周围观测到的类似磁盘不同.
100The James Webb Space Telescope has gathered data on a planet-forming, or protoplanetary, disk around a newborn star called ISO Chau 147.詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜收集了行星形成数据,即行星前行星磁盘,环绕新生恒星称为ISO Chau 147.
101It is only about 11% of the Sun's mass.它只有太阳质量的11%左右.
102Its diameter is about 43% of the Sun's, and its luminosity is about 2% of the Sun's.其直径约为太阳的43%,其光度约为太阳的2%.
103Luminosity is a measure of electromagnetic radiation.光度是电磁辐射的一种度量.
104ISO Chau 147距离地球约625光年.
105A light-year, the distance light travels in a year, is 9.5 trillion kilometers.光年,距离光在一年中旅行,是9.5万亿公里.
106Webb's observations showed that the gas in this star's protoplanetary disk is rich in carbon with no evidence of water.Webb的观测显示,这颗恒星的原行星盘中的气体富含碳,没有水的证据.
107This differs from new Sun-like stars, which have oxygen-rich gas and a lot of water vapor in their disks.这与新的类似太阳的恒星不同,这些恒星的磁盘中含有含氧气体和大量的水蒸气.
108Scientists wonder if this difference could influence the future habitability of rocky planets that form around these small stars.科学家怀疑这种差异是否会影响围绕这些小恒星形成的岩质行星的未来可居住性.
109A planet mainly requires, among other things, water to be in liquid state and have a suitable atmosphere for it to be habitable, said astrophysicist Aditya Arabavi of the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, who was the lead writer of the study pub荷兰格罗宁根大学的天体物理学家Aditya Arabavi说,除其他外,一个星球需要水处于液态,并拥有适合它居住的环境,他是最近发表于科学的研究的主要作者。
110Although we can expect that the different environment of VLMS disks would have a strong influence on the planetary composition and thus the habitability, it is difficult to predict whether this makes it less likely to be habitable, Arabavi said.虽然我们可以预期,VLMS磁盘的不同环境会对行星组成产生强烈的影响,从而影响其可居住性,但阿拉巴维说,这很难预测这是否会降低其可居住性。
111Stars form when dense areas of gas and dust collapse under their own gravitational pull.恒星在气体和灰尘密集区域在自身引力下坍塌时形成.
112Once a star appears at the center of such a cloud, the remaining material forms into a turning disk around it.一旦一颗恒星出现在这种云的中心,剩下的物质就会形成围绕它的转盘.
113This activity feeds star growth and often leads to the formation of planets.这种活动滋长恒星,并经常导致行星的形成.
114The disks around very young Sun-sized stars contain much more material than those around smaller stars.围绕非常年轻的太阳大小的恒星的圆盘中含有比围绕较小的恒星的更多的材料.
115This means the larger stars are more likely to have gas giant planets form around them.这意味着较大的恒星更有可能在它们周围形成气体巨行星.
116This is the case with the Sun and its planets Jupiter and Saturn.太阳及其行星木星和土星就是这种情况。
117VLMS are the most common stars in our Milky Way, said astrophysicist and study co-writer Thomas Henning of the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Germany.VLMS是我们银河系中最常见的恒星,是天体物理学家和德国马克斯·普朗克天文学研究所的研究联合撰稿人托马斯·亨宁(Thomas Henning)所说.
118These objects are presently the targets in the search for rocky planets because they are easier to find around such stars.这些天体目前是寻找岩石行星的目标,因为它们更容易在这类恒星周围找到.
119In addition, the masses of their planet-forming disks are in general too small to form giant planets, but large enough to form rocky planets, Henning said.此外,它们的行星形成磁盘的质量一般太小,无法形成巨行星,但体积足够形成岩石状的行星,海宁说.
120Scientists have already identified rocky planets orbiting VLMS stars, including some that orbit at the right distance to support life.科学家已经确定了围绕VLMS恒星运行的岩石行星,包括一些轨道在正确的距离支撑生命.
121I would expect that the planets would remain habitable if they are located in the zone where liquid water can exist, Henning said.Henning说,如果行星位于液态水可以存在的区域,我期望它们仍然可以居住。
122Still very young, ISO Chal 147 may become a kind of very low-mass star called a red dwarf.仍然非常年轻,ISO Chal 147可能会成为一类被称为红矮星的极低质量恒星.
123The star's diameter is only about 4 times greater than Jupiter's.该星的直径仅比木星大约4倍.
124Our Sun's diameter is about 10 times larger than Jupiter's.我们的太阳直径比木星大十倍左右.
125Webb, which began operating in 2022, also identified ethane in ISO Chal 147's protoplanetary disk.2022年开始运行的Webb也在ISO Chal 147的Protop行星盘中识别出乙烷.
126The discovery marks the first time the gas has been found outside our star system.该发现标志着首次发现气体 在我们的恒星系统之外。
127The research also found other carbon gases never before observed in such a disk.研究还发现在这种磁盘中从未观察到的其他碳气体。
128Webb is certainly helping us by providing invaluable data that was never possible before, Arabavi said.Rababavi说, Webb确实正在帮助我们提供前所未有的宝贵数据。
129I'm Katie Weaver.我是凯蒂·韦弗
130And now we have Katie here with us.现在凯蒂也来了
131Welcome, Katie.欢迎 凯蒂

145Space scientists are looking for places in the universe, including planets, that might have the right conditions for human settlement.空间科学家正在寻找包括行星在内的宇宙中可能具备人类居住条件的地方。
146And a habitat is the usual place an animal or plant lives.而栖息地是动物或植物通常生活的地方.
147It is the environment that supports the animal or plant's continued existence.正是环境支撑着动物或植物的继续存在.
148Well, thanks for the report, Katie.谢谢你的报告 凯蒂

159And their plan is ambitious.他们的计划是雄心勃勃的。
160Ambitious, that's spelled A-M-B-I-T-I-O-U-S, means that a plan or goal is on a large scale or perhaps difficult to do.野心勃勃,即拼写为A-M-B-I-T-I-O-U-S,表示一个计划或目标是大规模或可能难以完成的.
161Anna and Marsha hope to see famous places all over the U.S.安娜和玛莎希望看到全美国著名的地方.
162So their plan is ambitious because the U.S. is very large.因此他们的计划是雄心勃勃的,因为美国非常庞大.
163To see all the things they want to see, they will be traveling for weeks.为了看到他们想看到的一切,他们会旅行几个星期。

231We use the present perfect tense我们用现在的完美时态
232to talk about an action in the past that is important in the present.讨论过去一项在目前很重要的行动。
233For example, we heard Anna say...例如,我们听到安娜说...
234I have lived in Washington, D.C. for a long time now.我已在华盛顿特区居住了很长时间。
235The present perfect may be confusing for learners现在的完美可能令学习者困惑
236because we use it to talk about a past action.因为我们用它来谈论过去的行动。
237It is called present perfect because speakers use it它被称为现在的完美 因为发言者使用它
238to stress the importance of a past event in the present.强调以往活动在当前的重要性。
239You know, we hear another example a little later when Jean says...你知道,我们听到另一个例子 稍后,当让说...
240I've just flown in from Boston.我刚从波士顿飞过来
241The sentence, I've just flown in from Boston,我刚刚从波士顿飞过来
242stresses the present effect of a past event,强调过去事件的现有影响,
243the travel from Boston.波士顿的旅行。
244The exact time of the travel is not important.旅行的确切时间并不重要.
245To form the present perfect, we use two verbs,组成现在的完美, 我们使用两个动词,
246a main verb and an auxiliary verb.主动词和辅助动词.
247The auxiliary verb is have or has,辅助动词有或有,
248and the main verb is in something we call the past participle form.而主动词在某种我们称之为过去participle的形式中.
249For regular verbs, that just means you add D or ED对于普通动词,那只是表示你加入了D或ED
250to the base form of the verb.改为动词的基础形式。
251Yeah, like live and lived.是啊,像活着和活着。
252Let's give another example.再举个例子
253Have you ever lived in another country?你住过别的国家吗?
254I have lived in another country.我住在另一个国家。
255I've lived in France for a little while,我在法国住了一段时间
256and I've also been lucky我也很幸运
257because I've visited many different countries.因为我去过很多不同的国家
258So those verbs, visited, lived,所以那些动词,访问,生活,
259they follow the rule and just add D or ED to the base form.它们遵循规则,只要在基表上加入D或ED.
260But for irregular verbs,但对于不规则的动词,
261you might find different forms for the past participle.你可能会为过去的派对找到不同的形式
262For example, the past participle of fly is flown,例如,过去的苍蝇组团飞行,
263just like the past participle of see is seen.就像过去的目光一样
264For example, we can say, I've seen that movie.比如,我们可以说,我看过那部电影。
265Another way you can hear the present perfect in this conversation另一种方式,你可以听到现在的完美 在这个谈话中
266is with the adverbs ever and never.永远和副词在一起
267Listen again to this part.复听此部分.

274just a few blocks away from our office.离我们办公室只有几条街
275I noticed there that Jean used the negative adverb never,我注意到让从未使用过负面副词
276which of course means she hasn't had the experience of visiting that place.这当然意味着她没有去过那个地方
277I sometimes hear English learners saying I have ever有时我听到英语学习者说我曾经

279but that's not correct, is it Jill?但这样不对,是不是吉尔?
280No, I've heard that too.不 我也听说了
281I think the way to understand this is to remember我想理解这一点的方法 就是记住
282we usually only use ever in a question formed with the present perfect,我们通常只用在 一个问题 与现在的完美,
283not in a statement or an answer to a question.不是在陈述或回答一个问题。
284You know, Andrew, something else stands out for me in what Jean said here.你知道,安德鲁,在让在这里说的话中,有别的东西是突出的。

12Often called a happy city, it was meant to be a Christian utopia or perfect place.常被称为幸福之城,意为基督教乌托邦或完美之地.

15Pieces of wood stick out from the waves.木块从波浪而出.

18For years, low-lying nations have warned the world about the threat of rising seas.多年来,地势低洼的国家一直警告世界,海洋上升的威胁.
19And Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, struggles to find an answer.而尼日利亚,非洲人口最多的国家, 努力寻找答案。
20Thompson Akingboye is a church leader in Ayatoro.汤普森·阿京博耶(Thompson Akingboye)是阿亚托罗的一位教会领袖.

22But they know the solution will require far more.但他们知道,解决办法需要的要多得多。

32Olusegun Dada is a marine geologist at the Federal University of Technology in Akure.奥卢塞贡·达达(Olusegun Dada)是阿库雷联邦理工大学的海洋地质学家.
33He said one of the reasons for the losses is underwater oil operations.他说损失的原因之一是水下石油作业。

35But he and his colleagues note other reasons, including the deforestation of mangroves that help protect the earth.但他和他的同事注意到其他原因,包括砍伐有助于保护地球的红树林.
36Erosion from ocean waves is another problem.海浪侵蚀是另一个问题。
37When we started coming to this community, then we used to have fresh water, Dada said.当我们开始来到这个社区, 然后我们曾经有淡水, Dada说。
38Today, the freshwater ecosystem is becoming a salty marine one.今天,淡水生态系统正成为一个咸咸的海洋生态系统。
39The change is costly in Nigeria.在尼日利亚,这一变化代价高昂。
40The World Bank in a 2020 report estimated the cost of coastal degradation in three nearby Nigerian states, Lagos, Delta, and Cross River,世界银行在2020年的一份报告中估计了附近三个尼日利亚州,即拉各斯、三角洲和Cross River的沿海退化成本。
41at $9.7 billion, or more than 2% of the country's gross domestic product.97亿美元,占全国国内生产总值的2%以上。

46She estimated that two-thirds of the area had been slowly swept under the waves.她估计,该地区三分之二的地区在大浪下被缓慢扫荡.
47This is the third house we are living in, and there are some living in the fourth house now, and we do not have enough space for ourselves again.这是我们住的第三所房子,现在还有一些住在第四所房子里,我们没有足够自己的空间。
48Four or five people living in a small room, you can just imagine how painful it is, Mofeluwa said.莫费卢瓦说,四五个人住在一个小房间里,你可以想象它有多痛苦。
49If you look where the sea is now, that is the end of the former Ayatoro.若观海现处即前阿yat多罗三藐三菩提.

53It might be too late for efforts to be effective, Dada, the marine geologist, said.海洋地质学家Dada说,努力有效可能为时已晚。
54For years, he has hoped for an environmental study to be carried out to better understand what is causing the community's disappearance.多年来,他一直希望开展一项环境研究,以更好地了解是什么导致社区消失.
55But nothing has been done.但是没有做任何事情。
56The Niger Delta Development Commission, a government body meant in part to deal with environmental and other issues caused by oil exploration, did not answer questions from the Associated Press about efforts to protect the community's coastline.尼日尔三角洲开发委员会是一个政府机构,其部分目的是处理石油勘探造成的环境和其他问题,它没有回答美联社关于努力保护社区海岸线的问题。
57The commission's website lists a coastline protection project in Ayatoro.委员会的网站列出了阿亚托罗的一个海岸线保护项目.
58The project was awarded some 20 years ago, and the website describes it as ongoing.该项目是大约20年前授予的,网站将其描述为正在进行中.
59But local people say the project never started.但当地人说这个项目从未开始.
60I'm Katie Weaver.我是凯蒂·韦弗
61Researchers are seeking to learn why bird flu kills some animals quickly, but causes only moderate illness in others.研究人员正在寻求了解为什么鸟流感会很快杀死一些动物,但在其他动物中只会引起中度疾病.
62In recent years, bird flu is believed to have killed millions of wild and domestic birds worldwide.近年来,据信全世界有数百万野生和家禽因禽流感而死亡。
63Other animals, such as seals, cats, dogs, and cows, have also been infected.其他动物,如海豹,猫,狗,牛等,也被感染.
64The virus is officially known as H5N1.该病毒正式命名为H5N1.
65It has largely stayed out of the human population.它基本上与人口无关。
66However, the World Health Organization, WHO, reported that as of April 1, 2024, H5N1 had caused nearly 900 human infections and 463 deaths since 2003.然而,世界卫生组织,世卫组织报告说,截至2024年4月1日,H5N1自2003年以来已造成近900人感染,463人死亡.
67Most of the human cases involved direct contact between people and infected birds.大多数人类病例都涉及人与被感染的鸟类之间的直接接触.
68In cases of the virus spreading between humans, individuals involved were found to have had close and extended contact within households.在病毒在人与人之间传播的情况下,有关个人被发现在家庭内有密切和广泛的接触。
69The currently spreading version of bird flu was first identified in 1959.目前传播的禽流感版本最早于1959年确定.
70But the illness did not start to cause concern among health officials until a bird flu outbreak hit Hong Kong in 1997.但直到1997年香港发生禽流感疫情,该病才开始引起卫生官员的关注.
71That outbreak caused severe sickness and deaths in some humans.这场爆发造成了一些人类的严重疾病和死亡。
72Scientists are still studying possible reasons the H5N1 virus has not heavily affected human populations.科学家仍在研究H5N1病毒没有严重影响人口的原因。
73But some researchers fear the situation may change.但有些研究者担心情况可能会改变.
74Like other viruses, H5N1 has mutated over time.与其他病毒一样,H5N1也随时间变异.
75During the last few years, one particular bird flu version has been spreading quickly and widely.在过去几年中,一种特定的禽流感版本迅速而广泛地传播.
76Dr. Tom Frieden is a former director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC.汤姆·弗里登博士(英語:Dr. Tom Frieden)是美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)的前主任.
77He told the Associated Press about the ongoing outbreaks,他告诉美联社 有关持续爆发,
78There's a lot we don't understand.有很多我们不明白。
79Frieden also heads the non-profit group Resolve to Save Lives.弗里登还领导非营利团体"决心拯救生命".
80He added,他补充说,
81I think we have to get over the hope for the best and bury our head in the sand approach.我认为我们必须克服对最佳的希望,把头埋在沙滩上。
82Some researchers have theorized flu viruses that started in birds caused severe human pandemics.一些研究者有起源于鸟类的理论性流感病毒引起严重的人类流行病.
83For example, pandemics that took place in 1918 and 1957 quickly spread among animals and people.例如,1918年和1957年发生的流行病迅速在动物和人民中蔓延。
84Many experts think it would be unlikely the currently spreading virus will become a deadly worldwide pandemic.许多专家认为,目前传播的病毒不可能成为全世界致命的流行病。
85But to prepare for that possibility, U.S. health officials are developing vaccines that might be needed.但为了准备这种可能性,美国卫生官员正在研制可能需要的疫苗.
86At this time, they are not planning other measures.目前,它们没有计划其他措施。
87This is because the virus is not causing severe disease in humans,这是因为病毒不会给人类造成严重疾病
88and there is no strong evidence it is spreading from person to person.并且没有确凿的证据表明它正在从人向人扩散。
89The U.S. Department of Agriculture has said U.S. animal outbreaks have been reported at numerous dairy cow farms美国农业部说,美国动物疫情 在很多奶牛农场。
90and among more than 1,000 groups of poultry.以及1000多组家禽。
91At least four human infections have been reported among hundreds of thousands of people working at U.S. poultry and dairy farms.据报道,在美国家禽和乳品养殖场工作的数十万人中至少有4人感染.
92Worldwide, doctors have so far identified 15 human infections caused by the current version.在世界范围内,迄今为止医生已经确定了15个由目前版本引起的人类感染.
93That count includes one death, a 38-year-old woman in southern China in 2022.包括2022年中国南部一名38岁妇女死亡。
94But officials said most of the identified people had either no signs of disease or only mild ones.但官员们说,大多数被识别的人要么没有疾病迹象,要么只有温和的迹象.
95Some experts have wondered whether humans have built up some level of immunity after being infected by other virus forms or because of vaccination.一些专家想知道,人类是否在受到其他病毒形式感染或接种疫苗后建立了某种程度的免疫力.
96But a study involving human blood samples suggested there was little to no existing immunity to this version of the bird flu virus.但一项涉及人类血液样本的研究表明,对于这种版本的禽流感病毒,几乎没有或根本没有现有的免疫力.

102Coming up in the next few months, there will be a nova of two stars.接下来的几个月里,将会有两颗恒星组成的新星.
103This week, we will learn about some of the special words you can use to talk about objects and events in the sky.本周,我们将学习一些你可以用来谈论天空中的物体和事件的特殊词汇.
104A nova is a star explosion.新星是一颗恒星爆炸
105A pair of stars called T Corona Borealis, called the blaze star, will become very bright,一对叫做T Corona Borealis的恒星 叫做火焰之星 将会变得非常亮
106so people almost everywhere on Earth, even in cities, can see it.所以地球上几乎任何地方的人,即使是城市里的人,都能看见它.
107Scientists say the event will be visible to the naked eye,科学家们说 肉眼可以看到这个事件
108which means you do not need any special tools like binoculars or a telescope to see it.也就是说你不需要任何特殊的工具 比如望远镜或望远镜
109Visible is an adjective form related to the word view.可见是和单词视图相关的形容词形式.
110The two stars that form the blaze star produce an outburst or increased period of energy around every 80 years.形成火焰恒星的两颗恒星每80年产生一次爆发或增加的能量期.
111Rebecca Hounsell是一名研究诺瓦事件 的助理科学家
112at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.在美国航天局位于马里兰州格林贝尔特的戈达德太空飞行中心.
113We don't often see a repeated outburst in a human lifetime,我们并不经常看到 人类一生中反复爆发
114and rarely one so relatively close to our own system, Hounsell said.Hounsell说,很少有人如此接近我们自己的系统。
115Material from one star moves toward another and causes the explosion or outburst of energy.一颗恒星的物质向另一颗恒星移动,引起爆炸或能量爆发.

129Since then, SpaceX has made regular trips to carry astronauts and supplies to the ISS.此后,SpaceX定期前往国际空间站运送宇航员和用品.
130NASA announced last year it had decided on a plan to deorbit the ISS after service ends in 2030.美国航天局去年宣布,它决定了一项在2030年服务结束后使国际空间站脱轨的计划。
131The agency and its international partners agreed that the orbiting laboratory该机构及其国际伙伴同意轨道实验室

139and transporting its pieces back to Earth.将它的碎片运回地球。
140Still another option was to move the ISS to a higher orbit where it would remain out of service.还有一种选择是将国际空间站移到它仍然无法使用的更高轨道。

153Bowersox noted that although the current ISS cannot continue forever,Bowersox指出,尽管目前的国际空间站不能永远继续下去,
154it will remain a blueprint for science, exploration, and partnerships until its service ends in 2030.它仍将是科学、勘探和伙伴关系的蓝图,直至2030年服务结束。
155Once the ISS is retired, NASA plans to use privately developed space laboratories for its space research needs.一旦国际空间站退役,美国航天局计划利用私人开发的空间实验室满足其空间研究需要。
156The agency has already chosen several American companies to develop future space stations.该机构已经选择了几家美国公司来开发未来的空间站.
157NASA has said a deorbiting operation would begin by slowly lowering the ISS altitude level.美国航天局表示,将缓慢降低国际空间站高度水平,从而开始脱轨作业。

159But the final part of the operation is re-entry.但行动的最后一部分是重返.
160This will require guiding the ISS into Earth's atmosphere to a target in an unpopulated area of the ocean.这将需要引导国际空间站进入地球大气层,进入海洋无人居住的区域。
161The targeted landing spot has been identified as a place called Point Nemo in the South Pacific Ocean.目标着陆点被确定为南太平洋的一个叫"尼莫角"的地方.
162This is a stretch of open water between New Zealand and the southernmost part of South America.这是新西兰和南美洲最南端之间的一段开阔水域.
163The U.S. National Ocean Service identifies Point Nemo as the point in the ocean that is farthest from land.美国国家海洋局将尼莫点确定为远离陆地的海洋点.
164NASA predicts that most ISS equipment will burn up or vaporize during the intense heat of atmospheric re-entry.美国航天局预测,大多数国际空间站设备在大气重返的强烈热量中会燃烧或蒸发。
165But it says some dense or heat-resistant elements are expected to survive and land in the ocean.但是,它说一些密集或耐热的元素预计会生存下来并在海洋中降落.

41One took place in Indonesia and the other in Ethiopia.一个发生在印度尼西亚,另一个发生在埃塞俄比亚。
42Investigators said the pilots in the Lion Air crash did not know about flight control software that would affect control of the airplane.调查人员表示,狮子空难中的飞行员不知道会影响飞机控制的飞行控制软件.
43The pilots of the Ethiopian Airlines crash knew about the software but were still unable to control the plane.埃塞俄比亚航空公司坠机飞行员知道该软件,但仍无法控制飞机。
44该软件被称为Maneuvering Certifics Upmentation系统.
45Boeing designed it to cause the airplane's nose to point down under a certain set of flight conditions.波音设计它是为了让飞机的鼻子在一定的飞行条件下指向下方.
46The software aimed to save money by reducing the amount of training time pilots needed to use the system.该软件旨在通过减少使用该系统所需的培训时间,节省资金。
47The software is used in 737 MAX airplanes and did not exist on earlier aircraft.该软件用于737 MAX飞机,在较早的飞机上并不存在.
48The Justice Department charged Boeing in 2021 with lying to Federal Aviation Administration officials about the software.司法部于2021年指控波音对该软件向联邦航空管理局官员撒谎.
49Under a deal at the time, the government did not bring charges if the company paid a $2.5 billion settlement which included a fine of $243.6 million.根据当时的一笔交易,如果公司支付了25亿美元的和解款,包括2.436亿美元的罚款,政府没有提出指控。
50Boeing was also required to meet the requirements of anti-fraud laws for three years.波音公司还被要求在三年内达到反欺诈法的要求.
51Boeing blamed two low-level employees for misleading government officials.波音指责两名低级别员工误导政府官员.
52The government charged a former company official.政府指控一名前公司官员。
53In 2022, a jury found a former Boeing chief technical pilot not guilty in connection with the company's wrongdoing.2022年,陪审团认定一名前波音首席技术飞行员与公司的不当行为无关.
54After the crashes, the government grounded or halted all flights of the 737 MAX airplanes involved for about 20 months.坠机后,政府将737架MAX飞机的所有航班停飞或停飞约20个月.
55Boeing is based in Arlington, Virginia, although the 737 MAX aircraft are built in the state of Washington.波音总部位于弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿,尽管737 MAX飞机是在华盛顿州建造的.

58In recent months, the disease has spread to 129 groups of cows across 12 states.近几个月来,该疾病已蔓延到12个州的129个奶牛群.
59Experts have identified the disease in other mammals as well, from alpacas to house cats.专家还查明了其他哺乳动物的疾病,从羊驼到养猫。
60The scientists are concerned about rising cases among cows.科学家们对牛群中病例的增加感到关切。
61They say the increase probably means the virus has been changing.他们说,增加可能意味着病毒一直在改变。
62They say such changes could make it easier for the virus to spread from animals to humans.他们说这种变化可以让病毒更容易从动物传播到人类.
63Three people in the U.S. have tested positive for H5N1 bird flu since late March after being in close contact with cows.美国有3人与奶牛密切接触后,自3月下旬开始检测H5N1禽流感呈阳性.
64Scott Hensley is a professor of microbiology at the University of Pennsylvania.斯科特·亨斯利是宾夕法尼亚大学微生物学教授.
65He said the threat of a pandemic is currently low, but could rise quickly.他说,大流行病的威胁目前很低,但可能迅速上升。
66Health officials say the earlier they know about cases of human infection, the sooner they can take steps to reduce its spread.卫生官员说,他们了解人类感染病例的时间越早,他们就越能采取措施减少感染的传播。
67The U.S. government tests cows for the virus.美国政府检测奶牛感染病毒.
68However, those tests are currently limited to cows crossing state borders.然而,这些测试目前仅限于跨越国界的奶牛。
69Government health officials and pandemic flu experts told Reuters news agency政府卫生官员和流感专家告诉路透社
70there is very little testing of people who come into contact with sick cattle.对与病牛接触的人的检测很少。
71Human and animal health agencies sometimes differ in the ways they deal with the flu.人类和动物保健机构处理流感的方式有时不同。
72Experts say these differences could make it harder to respond quickly to an outbreak.专家表示,这些差异可能使对疫情作出迅速反应变得更加困难.
73Still, a U.S. Department of Agriculture spokesperson said the agency is working around the clock美国农业部的一位发言人说 该机构正在昼夜工作
74with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, CDC, in a whole-of-government response.与美国疾病控制中心,疾控中心,全政府响应.
75The spokesperson added that research shows America's food supply remains safe,发言人补充说,研究表明,美国的粮食供应仍然安全,
76sick cows generally recover after a few weeks, and the risk to human health remains low.生病的牛一般在几周后恢复,对人类健康的风险仍然很低.
77Some pandemics, including COVID-19, arrive with little warning.一些流行病,包括COVID-19,到达时几乎未发出警告。
78In the last flu pandemic, caused by H1N1 in 2009,在2009年由H1N1引起的最后一次流感大流行中,
79the virus had first spread among animals for several years, Hensley said.Hensley说,病毒在动物中传播已有好几年了
80But he added that more tracking of the virus would have helped health officials prepare.但他补充说,更多追踪病毒会帮助卫生官员做好准备.
81The CDC estimates that between about 150,000 and half a million people died worldwide during the 2009 pandemic.疾控中心估计,2009年全球范围内约有15万至50万人死于大流行病。
82The World Health Organization, or WHO, says there is no evidence of H5N1 spreading from human to human.世界卫生组织(WHO)或世界卫生组织(WHO)表示,没有证据表明H5N1从人类扩散到人类.
83For that reason, the WHO says the risk to humans is currently low.因此,世卫组织称目前对人类的风险较低.
84Wenqing Zhang is the head of the WHO's Global Influenza Preparedness Agency.张文庆任世卫组织全球流感防范机构负责人.
85She said health organizations have ways to launch large production of tests, treatments, and vaccines if needed.她说,如果需要,保健组织有办法大规模生产测试、治疗和疫苗。
86The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, or CEPI, is a nonprofit based in Oslo, Norway.防疫创新联盟(CEPI)是一个非营利组织,总部设在挪威奥斯陆.
87The organization works to develop vaccines and other ways to fight against pandemics.本组织致力于研制疫苗和其他防治流行病的方法。
88CEPI aims to create a collection of vaccines for viruses that could cause pandemics.CEPI旨在为可能造成大流行病的病毒建立疫苗库。
89This would help drug makers start large production and deliver the medicine where necessary within 100 days of an outbreak.这将有助于毒品制造者在爆发后100天内开始大规模生产并在必要时提供药品。
90Some countries are taking steps to protect people against H5N1.一些国家正在采取措施保护人民免受H5N1的伤害。
91The U.S. and Europe are gathering pre-pandemic flu vaccine that could be used for high-risk groups, including farm or lab workers.美国和欧洲正在收集可用于高风险群体,包括农场或实验室工人的流行前流感疫苗。
92Zhang, of the WHO, said expanding vaccines to more people is complex.世卫组织的张说,向更多人推广疫苗是复杂的.
93Makers of pandemic flu vaccines make seasonal flu shots and cannot produce both at once, she said.她说,大流行性流感疫苗的制造者进行季节性流感的注射,不能同时产生这两种疫苗。
94Most flu vaccines are made using virus grown in eggs.大多数流感疫苗是使用卵子中生长的病毒制成的.
95That means it could take up to six months to produce pandemic shots.这意味着产生大流行的镜头可能需要长达六个月的时间.
96However, mRNA vaccines can be produced more quickly.然而,mRNA疫苗可以更快地生产.
97On July 2, the U.S. government gave $176 million to drug maker Moderna to finish development and testing of their mRNA vaccine against H5N1.7月2日,美国政府向制药师Moderna提供了1.76亿美元,以完成他们的mRNA疫苗针对H5N1的研发和测试.
98Experts also say there is a need to balance quick action against reacting too strongly to virus threats.专家们还说,必须在迅速行动与对病毒威胁的反应过于强烈之间取得平衡。
99Wendy Barkla is a virologist at Imperial College London.温蒂·巴克拉是伦敦帝国学院的病毒学家.
100She also advises the UK Health Security Agency on bird flu.她还就禽流感向英国卫生安全局提供咨询.
101She said health officials want to give warnings without saying the world is about to end.她说,卫生官员想要发出警告,而不要说世界即将结束。

103And I'm Jill Robbins.我是吉尔・罗宾斯。
104Experienced gardeners have likely learned to look out for poison ivy, a common plant found across North America, Europe and East Asia.经验丰富的园丁可能已经学会了注意有毒的常春藤,这是整个北美,欧洲和东亚发现的常见植物.
105While this green leafy plant is not life-threatening, it can cause severe skin reactions in many people.虽然这种绿叶植物并不危及生命,但它会在许多人中引起严重的皮肤反应.
106Associated Press gardening writer Jessica Damiano recently wrote that while she personally has not had any bad experiences with poison ivy, many gardeners she knows have.美联社园艺作家杰西卡·达米亚诺(Jessica Damiano)最近写道,虽然她个人对有毒常春藤没有过任何糟糕的经历,但她认识的许多园艺家都有过.
107So in an effort to help gardeners, or people who simply enjoy spending time outdoors, deal with this plant, Damiano has come up with some suggestions for how to find and safely get rid of it.所以为了帮助园丁,或者那些只喜欢在户外度过时间的人, 处理这个植物,达米亚诺想出了一些关于如何找到和安全地摆脱它的建议。
108The official name for poison ivy is Toxicodendron radicans.毒常春藤的正式名称是毒多德龙radi.
109The plant contains oily chemical compounds called urotiols in its leaves, stems and roots.该植物的叶,茎和根中含有油性化学化合物,称为urotiols.
110The American Skin Association estimates about 85% of the U.S. population is allergic to urotiols.美国皮肤协会估计约85%的美国人口对urotiols过敏.
111Of those, between 10 to 15% are considered highly allergic.其中10%至15%被认为高度过敏。
112The group says this makes the plant concerning and possibly dangerous for about 50 million Americans affected each year.剧组说这让工厂 每年对大约5 000万美国人造成危害
113Damiano writes that this means poison ivy should be removed from gardens in most cases.Damiano写道,这意味着在多数情况下,应该从花园中清除有毒的常春藤。
114But that can be tricky.但是这可能很棘手。
115Touching the plant to remove it can harm those involved.触摸植物去除它会伤害那些涉及的人.
116Identifying poison ivy plants can be difficult.识别有毒常春藤植物可能很困难.
117This is partly because the plant takes on different appearances at different times of the year.其部分原因是植物在一年的不同时期会出现不同的外观.
118Most often, however, its leaves are made up of three leaflets each.然而,其叶片通常由三张传单组成。
119The middle stem is longer than the stems of the side leaflets.中间的茎比侧面传单的茎长.
120Young leaves usually appear shiny, while older leaves do not.幼叶通常看起来光亮,而老叶则不会.
121Larger, older vines, especially those climbing up trees, are hairy.更大,更年长的藤本植物,尤其是爬树的藤本,多毛.
122Leaf color can be green, red, pink-tinged, yellow or orange.叶色可以是绿色,红色,粉红色丁丁,黄色或橙色.
123Some leaf ends are smooth, while others have toothed edges.有些叶片末端光滑,而另一些则有齿缘.
124Damiano admitted that even she has trouble spotting poison ivy.达米亚诺也承认,即使是她也很难发现有毒常春藤.
125She has misidentified the plant in the past.她过去对植物的识别有误
126She said some people might want to seek advice from a poison ivy expert or do research online.她说有些人可能想向有毒的常春藤专家寻求建议,或者在网上做研究.
127Local agriculture organizations can also be helpful in confirming a poison ivy identification.当地农业组织也可以帮助确认一种毒害的常春藤鉴定.
128When dealing with poison ivy, people should wear protective clothing for their hands, arms, legs and eyes.处理毒常春藤时,人们应当穿着防护服,用于手,手臂,腿和眼睛.
129Avoid touching anything in the process, especially the face.避免在过程中触摸任何东西,尤其是脸部.
130Remember, the plant can pass on its poison through clothing or tools.记住,植物可以通过衣物或工具传递其毒药.
131The best way to completely remove poison ivy is to pull it up by its roots.完全去除毒常春藤的最好方法是用它的根来拉上去.
132For gardeners living in a four-season area, the job will be easiest in early spring, when the ground is softer.对于生活在四季片区的园丁来说,工作在早春,当地面变软时会比较容易.
133The main roots of the plant can grow down about 30 centimeters,植物的主根可生长在下方约30厘米处,
134and runner roots can spread outward in lengths up to 6 meters.茎茎可向外延伸,长度可达6米。
135Both of these root systems must be removed to avoid future growth.必须消除这两个根系,以避免未来的增长。
136All parts of the poison ivy plant must be effectively removed.毒常春藤植物的所有部分必须有效清除.
137This material should be placed in a tightly sealed, heavy black plastic bag and set out for waste removal.这些材料应置于一个密封的、重的黑色塑料袋中,并准备去除废物。
138Poison ivy should never be burned.有毒的常春藤不应该被烧掉
139That is because the smoke is known to contain harmful substances that could be deadly if breathed in.这是因为人们知道烟中含有有害物质,如果吸入会致命。
140After completing removal operations, do not touch anything.完成清除操作后,不要碰任何东西.
141The plant's poisons can remain.植物的毒药可以留下.
142First, wash your hands with one of several specialty products made to completely remove all poisons from the plant.首先,用几种特产之一洗手,以完全去除植物上所有的毒药.
143Avoid using your normal soap because these can spread the plant's oils to other parts of the body.避免使用你正常的肥皂,因为这些可以把植物的油撒到身体的其他部位.
144After removing all clothes, take a shower with the same specialty cleanser.脱下所有衣服后,用同样的特长清洗器淋浴.
145I'm Brian Lynn.我是布莱恩林恩。
146Brian Lynn joins me now to talk more about his health and lifestyle report.布莱恩·林恩现在和我一起 更多地谈论他的健康和生活方式报告。

154Actually, I have to say yes, and I have been affected quite a bit by poison ivy in my own life.事实上,我不得不说,是的, 我已经受到了很多 有毒的常春藤影响 在我自己的生活。
155As a child, we lived near wooded areas with large amounts of this plant,小时候,我们住在林地附近 有大量这种植物
156and before I knew any better, I would have terrible allergic reactions after just playing in areas where poison ivy was among other vegetation.之前,我会有 可怕的过敏反应 之后只是玩 在那些地区 毒常春藤是其他植被。
157Then, as an adult, I was exposed to the plant while doing gardening work.然后,作为一个成年人,我在做园艺工作时接触到了植物.
158In these situations, my big mistake was working without gloves,在这种情况下,我的大错误是 没有手套工作,
159and I would be pulling out roots from multiple plants in the dirt, some of which belonged to poison ivy.我将会从泥土中的多种植物中拔出根来, 有些植物属于毒藤。
160How about you?你怎么样?
161Have you had personal experiences with this plant?你对这工厂有过亲身经历吗?

163What would you say is the main takeaway of your report this week?这星期你的报告的主要内容是什么?
164I do think perhaps the best advice given in this report is when trying to get rid of poison ivy,我认为,本报告给出的最好建议是,在试图消除毒害常春藤时,

90The organization demonstrated the new EV model last weekend in the state of Illinois at NASCAR's Chicago street race.该组织上周在伊利诺伊州NASCAR的芝加哥街赛上展示了新的EV模型.
91So far, only one NASCAR driver, David Reagan, has driven the vehicle, worth $1.5 million.到目前为止,只有一名NASCAR司机大卫·里根驾驶了这辆车,价值150万美元.
92He has tested it on racetracks and also was behind the wheel in Chicago on Sunday.他在赛马场上试车,星期天也在芝加哥的车轮后面.
93Reagan told reporters at the event that driving the EV provides a completely different experience for the driver.里根在事件中告诉记者,驾驶EV为司机提供了完全不同的经历.

110A large wing on the back of the vehicle is designed to help it compete with other race cars.车身背面的大型机翼旨在帮助其与其他赛车竞争.
111NASCAR officials have said the vehicle was built to produce 1,000 kilowatts at top power.NASCAR官员表示,该车的制造是为了生产1000千瓦的顶级功率.
112This is equal to 1,340 horsepower, about twice the amount produced by NASCAR's latest engine technologies.这相当于1,340马力,大约是NASCAR最新发动机技术生产的两倍.
113NASCAR is not the first motorsports organization to expand into electric car racing.NASCAR并不是第一个扩展为电动赛车的发动机运动组织.
114Formula E is an international EV racing series that officially began 10 years ago, but that organization's fan base is much smaller than NASCAR's.公式 E是十年前正式开始的国际EV赛车系列,但该组织的球迷基础远小于NASCAR.
115NASCAR officials said demonstrating the EV vehicle at its events could increase interest in expanding the technology, especially among younger fans.NASCAR官员说,在EV车辆的活动中展示该车辆可以增加扩大技术的兴趣,特别是在年轻粉丝中。

125Glad to be here.很高兴能来
126This week, you reported on a new electric car introduced by the motorsports organization NASCAR.这周,你报告了一款由发动机运动组织NASCAR引进的新电动车.
127We learned in the story that the production of this EV model was a cooperative effort involving several partners.我们在故事中了解到,这种EV模型的制作是一个涉及多个伙伴的合作努力.
128What can you tell us about that?你能告诉我们什么?
129Yes, so NASCAR says this development effort involved its own engineers, as well as teams from American carmakers Chevrolet, Ford, and Toyota, and, of course, experts from ABB, the electrical equipment provider.是的,NASCAR说这项开发工作 涉及到自己的工程师, 以及来自美国汽车制造商Chevrolet、福特和丰田的团队, 当然还有来自ABB,电气设备供应商的专家。
130This kind of collaboration involving different manufacturers might seem unusual, but it is actually quite common across racing.这种涉及不同厂商的合作可能看起来很不寻常,但实际上在整个赛车中相当常见.
131And in the case of the new EV model, NASCAR officials said it used the same teams to build that vehicle as the group's latest racers, which NASCAR calls its next-gen cars.而对于新的EV型号,NASCAR官员表示,它使用与该组最新赛车手相同的队伍来建造该车,NASCAR称其为下一代车.
132Your report also noted the Formula E organization, which has already been holding racing competitions for EVs for several years.你的报告也提到了Flue E组织,该组织已经为EV举办了数年的赛车比赛.
133Can we expect to see a similar competition launched by NASCAR?我们能否期望看到NASCAR推出类似的比赛?
134This is certainly possible, but most industry experts think that if this happens, it will take a very long time.这当然是可能的,但大多数行业专家认为,如果发生这种情况,需要很长的时间.
135NASCAR itself is saying this is not one of its near-term goals for its competitions, but it has left the door open for it.NASCAR本身正说这并非其比赛的近期目标之一,但却为它留了空门.
136And the group made it very clear that the introduction of this new EV is really designed to test how much interest there is in a high-performance electric car,团队非常明确地指出,采用这款新的EV其实是为了测试对高性能电动车有多少兴趣,
137and whether it might be worth starting some kind of race, likely on a very small scale, to bring in even more fans who might have a real interest in paying to see these EV racers in action.以及是否值得开始某种比赛, 可能规模很小, 带来更多的球迷 谁可能真正有兴趣支付 看到这些EV赛车手在行动。
138All right.好吧,我们走。
139Thanks again for being here, Brian.再次感谢你能来 布莱恩
140You're welcome, Ashley.不用谢,阿什利。

189That word is spelled E-F-F-E-C-T.这个词是拼写为E -F -F
190The confusion happens because we often pronounce the two words the same way.之所以出现混乱,是因为我们经常以同样的方式发音这两个字。

192Effect, which is the same sound as the verb.效果,与动词相同的声音.

265So that's one way the blizzard affected them.这就是暴风雪影响他们的方法之一。
266And did you hear the other effects of the storm?你有没有听到风暴的其他影响?
267The storm broke all kinds of records.暴风雨打破了各种记录.
268To break a record means to surpass, and that's spelled S-U-R-P-A-S-S,打破记录意味着超越, 这就是拼写S-U-R-P-A-S,
269or go beyond what had ever been done before.或者超越以前做过的
270For example, in 2009, Usain Bolt ran the 100-meter race in 9.58 seconds.例如,2009年,乌赛恩·博尔特以9.58秒的成绩主持了100米赛跑.
271That broke the world record and is the fastest any person has ever run that distance.这打破了世界纪录,是任何人运行这一距离最快的。
272And the blizzard in D.C. broke records for the most snow that has ever fallen in D.C.,而华盛顿特区的暴风雪打破了在华盛顿特区降下过的最雪的记录,
27329 inches, which is almost 74 centimeters.29英寸,近74厘米.
274And it broke the record for the longest amount of time snow has ever fallen in D.C., about 30 hours.并且打破了在华盛顿降雪时间最长的纪录,约30小时.
275I remember I had a stick in my backyard to measure the snow that time.我记得我后院里有根棍子 用来测量那次的雪
276Those are still records for D.C.,这些仍然是华盛顿的记录,
277So we say the storm broke the record for the most snow that has ever fallen.因此,我们说暴风雨打破了有史以来降雪最多的纪录.
278We use the present perfect tense because we are connecting that past event to a record that still stands.我们使用目前的完美时态,因为我们正在将过去的事件与现在仍然保持的记录联系起来。
279When we say a record still stands, we mean the record has never been broken.当我们说记录仍然有效时,我们意味着记录从未被打破。
280Blizzards do affect a lot of things, especially in a city like Washington, D.C., which rarely gets them.布莱扎德人确实影响了很多事物,特别是在像华盛顿这样的城市,后者很少得到它们.
281And even a little bit of snow can affect Washington, D.C., a lot.即使是一点点的雪也会影响华盛顿特区,很多.
