47In the Northeastern American state of Massachusetts, people are combining a form of exercise for the body and spirit with pigs.在东北的美国马萨诸塞州,人们正在将身体和精神的锻炼形式与猪结合.
48The yoga classes in Massachusetts are selling out within hours.马萨诸塞的瑜伽课几小时内就卖完了
49People come from far away to exercise with Wilbur, Charlotte, and Bluey, who are piglets or young pigs.人们从远处来与威尔伯,夏洛特,和布鲁伊一起锻炼,他们都是小猪或幼猪.
50The pigs come from a nearby farm to play among people in the yoga class at Ashley Bousquet's business, Beyond Yoga and Wellness, in the town of Spencer.这些猪来自附近的一个农场,在斯宾塞镇的阿什利·布斯凯(英语:Ashley Bousquet)的生意(英语:Beyond Yoga and Wellness)中,在瑜伽课的人群中玩耍.
51Bousquet tells people not to worry if piglets climb on top of them or went to cuddle.布斯凯告诉人们不要担心小猪会爬到上面或者去抱抱.
52Yoga classes with animals are not new.带动物的瑜伽课并不新鲜.
53Goats might have been the first.山羊可能是第一个
54Lainey Morse started yoga classes with goats in the state of Oregon in 2016.莱妮·摩斯于2016年在俄勒冈州与山羊一起开始瑜伽课.
55She found she felt happier and more at ease around goats.她发现自己在山羊周围更快乐更轻松
56She talked with a friend who was a yoga teacher.她和一个曾经是瑜伽老师的朋友谈过了.
57They decided to offer classes with the goats.他们决定和山羊一起上课

81Before we hear today's education report, Dan Novak joins me to introduce the topic and to explain some of the words and phrases you will hear.在我们听取今天的教育报告之前,丹·诺瓦克与我一起介绍这个话题,并解释你们将要听到的一些言辞和短语.
82Hi, Dan. Welcome.嗨,丹,欢迎
83Hi, Ashley.嗨,艾许莉。
84Today's report is about the Brown v. Board of Education, a landmark case that was decided 70 years ago.今天的报告是关于布朗诉教育委员会案,这是70年前判决的划时代的案件.
85The case is famous for striking down school segregation and the separate but equal doctrine.该案例以打破学校隔离和单独但平等的学说而闻名.
86For listeners who don't know much about this, can you explain what separate but equal and segregation mean?对于对此不甚了解的听众,你能解释什么是分离但平等与隔离?
87Sure. So to segregate something means to set apart from a group or to isolate or divide.当然 因此,将某种东西分离,就意味着要从一个群体中分离,或者孤立或分裂.
88To 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.
89Before 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.
90In many parts of the U.S. at that time, and especially in the South, virtually every part of society was segregated.当时的美国很多地区,尤其是南方,几乎社会每个部分都被隔离.
91Blacks 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.
92So separate but equal was the legal justification for segregation.因此,隔离的法律依据是单独但平等的。
93It was established in the Plessy v. Ferguson case in the late 1800s, which ruled that segregation was constitutional.它在1800年代后期的普莱西诉弗格森案中被确立,该案裁定隔离是符合宪法的.
94The court ruled that segregation could be legal as long as the facilities for each race were equal.法院裁决,只要种族设施平等,隔离就是合法的。
95This, of course, could never be possible.当然,这是不可能的。
96And in the report we are about to hear, you say there is now school segregation in a de facto way.我们即将听到的这份报告中,你说现在存在着事实上的学校隔离。
97Can you explain what you mean by that?你能解释你的意思吗?
98Sure. So segregating students based on race is illegal and has been since the Brown ruling.当然 因此,以种族为由隔离学生是非法的,并且自布朗裁决以来就一直如此.
99But 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。
100Many 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.
101So many school districts, which are based on geography, are also segregated.如此众多以地理为主的校区也被隔离.
102De facto is Latin and means in fact.实际是拉丁语,实际上就是意思.
103So schools are now segregated in fact, but not in law as they were before 1954.因此,学校现在实际上被隔离,但不像1954年以前那样在法律上被隔离.
104Okay. Thanks for answering those questions, Dan.摆 谢谢你回答这些问题,丹
105Now let's listen to today's education report.现在听今日的教育报告.
106May 17th marked the 70th anniversary of one of the most notable cases in U.S. Supreme Court history, Brown v. Board of Education.5月17日是美国最高法院历史上最显著的案件之一布朗诉教育委员会案70周年.
107The 1954 decision declared segregated schools unconstitutional.1954年的决定宣布隔离学校违宪.
108It also struck down the principle of separate but equal,它还废除了单独但平等的原则,
109which was used as the basis for U.S. government policies related to racial segregation.这被用作美国政府有关种族隔离政策的基础。
110President Dwight Eisenhower famously sent federal troops to southern states to enforce the decision.德怀特·艾森豪威尔总统著名地派遣联邦军队到南部各州执行这一决定.
111Today, 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.
112But because of long-held economic divides and other issues, some schools have become segregated in a de facto way.但由于长期存在的经济鸿沟和其他问题,一些学校实际上已经变得隔离.
113Some researchers say that despite the continuing ban, school segregation has gotten worse over the years,有些研究者说,尽管持续禁止, 学校隔离状况在过去几年里变得更加严重,
114even as the U.S. overall has become more racially diverse.即使整个美国 种族越来越多样化。
115A team from the University of California, Los Angeles, or UCLA,加州大学洛杉矶分校或加州大学洛杉矶分校
116recently released a report examining the ways segregation has changed in U.S. schools.最近发表了一份报告,审查了美国学校中隔离现象的改变。
117The report is called The Unfinished Battle for Integration in a Multiracial America, From Brown to Now.报告名为"在多种族美洲融合的未完成战役,从布朗到现在".
118It was written by two UCLA professors, Gary Orfield and Ryan Flager.由加州大学洛杉矶分校的两位教授加里·奥菲尔德(英语:Gary Orfield)和瑞安·弗莱格(英语:Ryan Flager)撰写.
119The study found that schools have gotten less white and more Latino, Asian, and multiracial.研究发现,学校的白人越来越少,拉丁语,亚语和多种族也越来越少.
120But it also noted the number of schools considered intensely segregated tripled from 1988 to 2021.但是,它也注意到,1988年至2021年,被认为高度隔离的学校数量增加了三倍。
121The study defined intensely segregated as schools with white student populations of less than 10%.该研究将严重隔离定义为白人学生人数不到10%的学校。
122About 20% of American schools are intensely segregated, up from 7% in 1988, the report found.约20%的美国学校被严重隔离,而报告发现的1988年为7%。
123The study's writers state that schools of the South are dramatically less segregated该研究的作者指出,南方学校的隔离程度大大降低
124than 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
125However, Orfield and Flager add that the Supreme Court's decisions' historic aims have not been attained,然而,Orfield and Flager补充说,最高法院的裁决的历史目标尚未实现,
126and as this report shows, we have been moving backward.正如本报告所示,我们一直在倒退。
127The researchers found that black and Latino students were the most highly segregated populations.研究人员发现黑人和拉丁裔学生是隔离程度最高的人口.
128In 2021, schools overall were 45% mostly white.2021年,学校总体为45%,大部分为白人.
129But on average, black students attended schools that were about 76% non-white.但平均来说,黑人学生就读于非白人学校,约占76%.
130For 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.
131Education experts say segregation especially hurts black and Latino schools.教育专家说,隔离尤其伤害黑人和拉丁裔学校。
132This is because they are often underfunded and have higher rates of teacher shortages.这是因为他们往往资金不足,教师短缺率较高。
133Non-white school districts receive $23 billion less funding than mostly white school districts,非白人校区获得的资金比白人校区少230亿美元,
134a 2019 report by the nonprofit group EdBuild found.a 2019年非营利团体EdBuild的报告发现.
135The trends are toward increasing double segregation by both race or ethnicity and poverty, the UCLA study said.加州大学洛杉矶分校的研究指出,趋势是种族或族裔和贫困的双重隔离日益加剧。
136Researchers at another California university, Stanford, found that schools are getting more segregated加州另一所大学斯坦福的研究人员 发现学校越来越隔离
137even as neighborhoods have gotten more diverse and racial economic inequality has improved.甚至随着邻里变得更加多样化,种族经济不平等也有所改善。
138The findings indicate that policy choices, not demographic changes, are driving the increase, said Sean Reardon.Sean Reardon说,调查结果表明,政策选择而不是人口变化正在推动增长。
139He is a professor at Stanford who specializes in how poverty and inequality affects education.他是斯坦福的教授,专门研究贫穷和不平等如何影响教育。
140The UCLA study noted that desegregation policies following the Brown decision加州大学洛杉矶分校的研究报告指出,根据布朗案的决定,实行隔离政策。
141were generally aimed at improving access to schools for black students.通常是为了改善黑人学生上学的机会。
142But 70 years later, the issue of school segregation has gotten more complex.但70年后,学校隔离问题变得更加复杂.
143Latinos now make up the largest U.S. minority group and the Asian population has also grown.拉美裔目前是美国最大的少数民族,亚洲人口也有所增加.
144Most Americans of all racial groups think integrated schools are better,所有种族群体中的大多数美国人都认为综合学校更好,
145but are divided about what, if anything, to actually do, the UCLA study states.但对于加州大学洛杉矶分校的研究 究竟要做什么却有分歧
146The researchers offered several suggestions for improving integration.研究人员提出了若干改进一体化的建议。
147One is for districts to increase efforts to register students from poorer areas and offer more diverse school programs.一是各地区加大贫困地区学生注册工作力度,提供更加多样化的学校计划.
148A 2018 article by the nonprofit group EdUtopia described how some school districts have been successful in improving integration.非营利团体EdUtopia的一篇2018年的文章描述了一些校区是如何成功改善融合的.
149In Cambridge, Massachusetts, for example, every school must have a balance of wealthier and poorer families.例如,在马萨诸塞州剑桥,每所学校都必须有富裕和贫穷家庭的平衡.
150In San Antonio, Texas, bilingual schools and other specialized programs have brought in students from many different backgrounds.在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥,双语学校和其他专门方案吸引了来自许多不同背景的学生。
151And in New York City, schools have made progress by removing standardized testing requirements.而在纽约市,学校通过取消标准化测试要求而取得了进展.
152Others introduced admittance systems that take into account whether a student is poor, homeless, or a non-native English speaker.其他人则引入了入学制度,其中考虑到学生是贫困、无家可归还是非母语英语。
153American schools have been moving away from the goal of Brown and creating more inherently unequal schools for a third of a century, writers of the UCLA study wrote.加州大学洛杉矶分校研究的作者写道,美国学校已经偏离了布朗的目标,在三分之一的世纪里创建了更本质上不平等的学校.
154It will soon become understood once more that schools that serve all children together with equity are central to any good outcomes.人们很快将再次认识到,平等为所有儿童服务的学校是取得任何良好结果的核心。
155I'm Dan Novey.我是丹诺维。
156As the United States increases tariffs to reduce trade with China, it has greatly increased imports from Vietnam.随着美国增加关税以减少与中国的贸易,极大地增加了从越南的进口.
157The Southeast Asian country, however, depends on China for much of its exports to the U.S.然而,东南亚国家大部分出口到美国的商品依赖中国.
158The Reuters news agency recently studied information from the World Bank and economic experts.路透社最近研究了世界银行和经济专家提供的信息。
159It shows that the value of China's exports to Vietnam almost matches the value of exports from Vietnam to the U.S.这表明中国对越南出口的价值几乎与越南对美国出口的价值相符.
160in recent years.近些年来
161Last year, the U.S. imported over $114 billion of goods from Vietnam.去年,美国从越南进口了超过1 140亿美元的货物。
162That was more than two times more than 2018 when U.S.-China trade disputes began.这比2018年美中贸易纠纷开始时高出2倍多.
163That increase happened as U.S. imports from China dropped by $110 billion.这一增长是在美国从中国进口减少1 100亿美元时发生的。
164Hong Nguyen is an expert in supply chains or networks of product suppliers with the U.S.洪阮是美国供应链或产品供应商网络的专家.
165He said that in important industries such as clothing and electronic equipment, Vietnam captured more than 60% of China's loss.他说,在服装和电子设备等重要行业,越南收获了中国损失的60%以上.
166However, data show that much of Vietnam's exports to the U.S. are parts or components produced in China.然而,数据显示越南对美国的大部分出口都是中国生产的零部件.
167The Asian Development Bank estimates that imported parts account for 80% of the value of Vietnam's electronic exports in 2022.亚洲开发银行估计进口零件占2022年越南电子出口值的80%.
168The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development said in a report that 90% of goods imported by Vietnam's electronics and clothing industries in 2020 were then embodied in exports.经济合作与发展组织在一份报告中指出,2020年越南电子和服装工业进口的90%的货物随后都体现在出口中.
169That number, the Organization said, was higher than in earlier years and far above the average in industrialized countries.本组织说,这一数字高于前几年,远远高于工业化国家的平均水平。
170In the first three months of 2024, U.S. imports from Vietnam added up to $29 billion, while Vietnam's imports from China totaled $30.5 billion.在2024年的前三个月,美国从越南的进口累计达290亿美元,而越南从中国的进口总额达305亿美元.
171Darren Tay is the lead economist at the research company BMI.达伦 Tay是BMI研究公司的首席经济学家.
172He said the surge in Chinese imports in Vietnam coinciding with the increase in Vietnamese exports to the U.S. may be seen by the U.S. as Chinese firms using Vietnam to skirt the additional tariffs imposed on their goods.他说,随着越南对美国出口的增加,中国在越南进口的激增,可能被美国视为中国企业利用越南来逃避对其商品征收的额外关税。
173He noted that could lead to tariffs against Vietnam after the U.S. presidential elections.他指出,这可能导致美国总统选举后对越南征收关税.
174Vietnam now has the fourth largest trade surplus with the U.S.越南目前与美国的贸易顺差居第四位.
175That surplus is only smaller than the ones the U.S. has with China, Mexico, and the European Union.这种盈余只比美国对中国、墨西哥和欧洲联盟的盈余少。
176The growing trade imbalance comes as Vietnam seeks market economy treatment from the United States.随着越南寻求美国给予市场经济待遇,贸易日益失衡。
177U.S. President Joe Biden has pushed to increase diplomatic ties.美国总统乔·拜登推动加强外交关系.
178The U.S. Embassy in Hanoi did not comment on trade imbalances.美国驻河内大使馆没有评论贸易不平衡.
179Vietnam's foreign and trade ministries did not answer requests for comment.越南外交部和贸易部没有答复征求意见的请求。
180And China's commerce ministry did not immediately answer a request for comment from Reuters.而中国商务部并未立即回复路透社的征求意见请求.
181The increase in China-Vietnam-U.S. trade takes place as investments in Southeast Asian countries rise.中国-越南-美国贸易的增加是随着对东南亚国家的投资增加而发生的.
182Companies involved in the area are moving some of their activities from China.参与该地区的公司正在将其一些活动从中国转移。
183Many Chinese companies set up new factories in Vietnam.许多中国公司在越南建立了新的工厂.
184But they still heavily depend on supplies from their homeland.但他们仍然严重依赖家乡的补给.
185After a 2023 investigation, the U.S. Commerce Department found that some of the trade was just a way to place made in Vietnam on finished solar panels to avoid tariffs.经过2023年的调查,美国商务部发现,部分贸易只是将越南制造的成品太阳能板作为避免关税的一种方式.
186Another reason Vietnam is getting U.S. attention is its involvement in the Xinjiang area in China.越南受到美国关注的另一个原因是它参与了中国的新疆地区.
187The U.S. bans imports from the area over accusations of human rights violations against minority Uyghurs.美国禁止从该地区进口,因为指控维吾尔少数民族侵犯人权。
188Xinjiang is China's main producer of cotton and polysilicon, a material used to make solar panels.新疆是中国棉花和聚硅的主要生产国,是制造太阳能电池板的材料.
189Both are important to Vietnamese industries.两者对越南工业都很重要.
190Vietnam's clothing and solar panels accounted for about 9% of exports to the U.S. last year.越南的服装和太阳能电池板在去年对美国的出口中约占9%.
191Vietnam passed China as the main exporter of products covered by the Xinjiang ban last year, said Hung Nguyen of RMIT.越南通过中国,成为去年新疆禁产产品的主要出口国,RMIT的洪阮说.
192The Biden administration has remained quiet about Vietnam's large trade surplus.拜登政府对于越南巨大的贸易顺差一直保持沉默.
193Some experts say that may change after the November elections in the U.S.一些专家表示,在美国11月的选举之后,可能会有所改变.
194Nguyen Ba Hung is an economist at the Asian Development Bank.阮巴雄是亚洲开发银行的经济学家.
195He said it is possible that whoever wins may change the policy towards Vietnam, but that would also risk increasing U.S. import costs.他说,无论谁获胜,都有可能改变对越南的政策,但这也有可能增加美国进口成本。
196I'm Mario Ritter, Jr.我是小马里奥・里特
197Before the report, we asked you to pay careful attention to the word surge.在报告之前,我们请大家仔细注意“激增”一词。
198Can you remember when you heard it?你还记得你听到吗?
199You heard the term used in a quote from Darren Tay, an economist.你听到经济学家达伦·塔伊的引文里说的
200Let's listen again.师再听.
201He said,他说,
202The surge in Chinese imports in Vietnam coinciding with the increase in Vietnamese exports to the U.S.与越南对美国出口的增加同时发生的是中国在越南进口的激增。
203may be seen by the U.S. as Chinese firms using Vietnam to skirt the additional tariffs imposed on their goods.美国可能视之为中国企业利用越南来逃避对其商品征收的额外关税.
204In our example, surge is a noun.在我们的例子中,激增是一个名词。
205We spell it like this, S-U-R-G-E.我们这样拼,S -U -R
206A surge is a large, sudden increase.激增是突然增加的。
207You will often see the term used in news stories about business or the economy.你将经常看到有关商业或经济的新闻中所使用的术语。
208For example, you might hear about a surge in trade, a surge in unemployment, a surge in debt levels, and so on.例如,你可能会听到贸易激增,失业激增,债务水平激增等等。
209Please note that surge also has a verb form that is also commonly used.请注意,激增也有一个常用的动词形式。
210The verb form requires a slightly different sentence structure.动词形式需要略有不同的句子结构.
211For example, you might use the verb surge like this, Unemployment has surged in recent months.例如,你可能使用这样的动词涌现,失业问题在最近几个月里激增。
212Or you might use the noun form of surge like this, There has been a surge in unemployment in recent months.或者你可能会用这种名词形式涌现, 近几个月来失业人数激增。
213The two sentences have almost the exact same meaning.这两句含义几乎完全相同.
214And that's the lesson of the day.而今之训也.
215I'm John Russell.我是约翰·罗素
216And that's our program for today.这就是我们今天的节目
217Join us again tomorrow to keep learning English through stories from around the world.明天再次加入我们 继续学习英语 从世界各地的故事。

11New research suggests that the Sun's magnetic field forms much closer to the surface than scientists had thought.新的研究表明,太阳的磁场形成远比科学家们想象的更接近地表.
12The finding could help predict periods of extreme solar storms like the ones that hit Earth earlier this month.这一发现可以帮助预测极端太阳暴的时期 就像本月早些时候撞击地球的时期
13The magnetic field appears to form 32,000 kilometers under the Sun's surface.磁场似乎在太阳表面下形成32,000公里.
14Earlier estimates suggested the formation began more than 209,000 kilometers below the Sun's surface,早期的估算表明 太阳表面下方209000公里处开始形成
15an international team reported last week.一个国际小组上周汇报。
16The Sun's strong magnetic energy is the source of solar flares and bursts of plasma known as coronal mass ejections.太阳的强磁能是太阳耀斑和被称作日冕物质喷射的等离子体暴发的来源.
17Plasma is a gas that creates an electromagnetic field.等离子体是一种产生电磁场的气体.
18When directed toward Earth, the bursts create colorful displays in the sky.冲向地球时,暴雨在天空中产生多彩的展示.

24The Italian scientist Galileo was among the first astronomers to study sunspots.意大利科学家伽利略是最早研究太阳球的天文学家之一.
25He did so in the early 1600s.他在1600年代初就这样做了。
26Solar flares and coronal mass ejections often occur near sunspots.太阳耀斑和日冕物质弹射经常发生在太阳点附近.
27The dark spots as big as Earth are located near the most intense parts of the Sun's changing magnetic field.与地球一样大的暗点位于太阳变化中磁场最密集的部分附近.
28Vosel and his team created new models of the interaction between the Sun's magnetic field and the flow of plasma.沃塞尔和他的团队创造了太阳磁场与等离子体流相互作用的新模型.
29The interaction varies at different latitudes during an 11-year cycle.在11年周期内,不同纬度的相互作用各不相同。
30The team then entered their calculations into a NASA supercomputer in California.团队随后将他们的计算输入加州的一架NASA超级计算机.
31The results suggested a shallow magnetic field.结果表明磁场很浅。
32More research is needed to confirm the finding, however.然而,还需要进行更多的研究来确认调查结果。
33The new knowledge should improve long-term solar forecasts,新知识应改善长期太阳预报,
34permitting scientists to better predict the strength of the Sun's future cycles.允许科学家更好地预测太阳未来周期的强度.
35The Sun is nearing its peak level of activity in the current 11-year cycle.在目前的11年周期中,太阳活动水平接近高峰。
36This is a reason for the recent solar storms.这是最近太阳风暴的原因.
37Strong solar flares and outbursts of billions of tons of plasma earlier this month强烈的太阳耀斑 和爆发 亿吨等离子体 本月早些时候
38created severe solar storms that produced auroras in unexpected places.形成严重的太阳风暴,在意想不到的地方产生Auroras.

85European aerospace company Airbus has fitted a special truck with airplane controls in an effort to test self-taxing abilities.欧洲航空航天公司空中客车安装了一台具有飞机控制的特种货车,以测试自税能力.
86Airbus officials recently introduced the truck in Paris at Europe's largest technology event, Vivatec.空中客车官员最近在欧洲最大的技术活动Vivatec在巴黎引进了这辆卡车.
87The electric vehicle can drive like a truck, or it can activate the aircraft system controls.电动车可以像卡车一样行驶,也可以激活飞机系统控制器.
88A demonstration showed how the truck works.一次演示演示了卡车是如何工作的.
89It uses numerous cameras and sensors to help follow airport direction signals and avoid obstacles as computers guide the vehicle along its path.它利用众多的摄像头和传感器帮助跟踪机场方向信号,避免在计算机引导车辆沿途时设置障碍.
90In a statement, Airbus described the effort as a three-year research project called Optimate.在一份声明中,空中客车将这一努力描述为一个名为"优化"的三年研究项目.
91The goal is to deploy and test the best technologies to help aircraft better recognize their surroundings and current operating conditions.目标是部署和测试最佳技术,以帮助飞机更好地了解其周围情况和目前的运行条件.
92In addition, the company said detailed data from the experiments will be examined to help develop pilot assistance systems for airport taxiing.此外,该公司说,将审查实验的详细数据,以帮助开发机场出租车的试点援助系统。
93The technology demonstration came after several incidents of airplanes crashing on the ground at airports.这次技术示威是在飞机在机场地面坠毁几起事件之后进行的。
94One of those happened in January when a Japanese Airlines Airbus 350 was landing and hit a Coast Guard plane already on the runway.其中一起发生在1月份,当时一架日本航空公司的空中客车350号正在降落,撞上了已经在跑道上的海岸警卫队飞机。
95An investigation was launched last month after a British Airways jet struck a stationary Virgin Atlantic plane at London's Heathrow Airport.上个月在伦敦希思罗机场 一架英国航空公司的飞机 袭击了一架固定的维京大西洋飞机
96That crash caused only minor damage to both aircraft.这起坠机事件只给两架飞机造成轻微损坏。
97And in February, U.S. investigators said they were looking into a crash involving two jet-blue planes at Logan International Airport in Boston.而在2月,美国调查人员表示,他们正在调查波士顿洛根国际机场涉及两架飞机的坠机事件.
98Airbus officials have said they hope the specially designed truck can show how self-taxing or automation technology can help safely guide costly jets through increasingly crowded airports.空中客车官员表示,他们希望专门设计的卡车能够显示自我征税或自动化技术如何能够帮助安全引导昂贵的喷气机通过日益拥挤的机场.
99The vehicle uses multiple technologies related to automation, navigation, and artificial intelligence.该飞行器使用与自动化,导航,以及人工智能有关的多种技术.
100Mathieu Gallas is the head of Automation Research at Upnext, a special technology research laboratory for Airbus.Mathieu Gallas是空中客车特别技术研究实验室Upnext的自动化研究负责人.
101He told Reuters News Agency these use cases are much more critical and complicated compared to those of the car industry.他告诉路透社,与汽车业相比,这些使用案例要严谨和复杂得多.
102Slow-speed airport crash incidents rarely result in serious injuries or deaths.缓慢的机场失事事件很少导致严重伤亡.
103But they represent a costly and growing problem for airlines, airports, insurers, and passengers.但是,这对航空公司、机场、保险公司和乘客来说是一个代价高昂和日益严重的问题。
104Such incidents can cause major passenger delays.此类事件可造成乘客重大延误。
105They also can lead to costly plane repairs.它们还可能导致昂贵的飞机修理。
106The chief executive of Upnext is Michael Augello.Upnext的首席执行官是迈克尔·奥杰洛.
107He said in a statement that a big aim of the Optimate project is to demonstrate a new system to support safer and more efficient air travel.他在一份声明中说,优化项目的一大目的是展示一个支持更安全和更高效的空中旅行的新系统.
108The Upnext team says the refitted truck is to be tested live at airports in preparation for testing A350-1000 aircraft in the future.Upnext小组说,经过翻新的卡车将在机场进行现场测试,以备将来测试A350-1000飞机.
109Company officials say if the airport tests are successful, the project could also result in airplane design changes.公司官员表示,如果机场测试成功,该项目还可能导致飞机设计改变.
110But getting such systems approved can be a long and difficult process.但批准这种系统可能是一个漫长和困难的过程。
111Gallas said Airbus jets already use some automation technologies to limit pilot error.加拉斯说,空中客车喷气机已经使用一些自动化技术来限制飞行员错误.
112But those systems are not considered fully autonomous.但这些系统不被认为是完全自主的。
113In other words, they can only predict and behave in certain situations.换句话说,它们只能在某种情况下预测和行为。
114The testing truck is equipped with light-based LiDAR technology.测试车装有轻便的LiDAR技术.
115LiDAR uses a series of sensors and light lasers that can measure distances and produce three-dimensional 3D maps of the surrounding environment.LiDAR使用一系列传感器和光激光,可以测量距离,生成周围环境的三维三维地图.
116Airbus said the research vehicle is expected to explore progressively higher levels of automation as the experiments continue.空中客车表示,随着实验的继续进行,研究车预计将逐步探索更高的自动化水平.
117The company noted it has no immediate plans to introduce autonomous jetliners to the skies.该公司指出,它没有立即向天空引进自主喷气式飞机的计划。
118Karim Mokadam is a former automobile executive.卡里姆·莫卡丹是前汽车执行官.
119He now leads research and technology for Airbus.他现在领导空中客车的研究和技术.
120He told Reuters he thinks LiDAR will be the most effective technology for the testing vehicle.他告诉路透社,他认为LiDAR将是测试车最有效的技术.
121The possible use of LiDAR to improve aircraft safety recently received attention after severe turbulence hit a Singapore Airlines jet.在新加坡航空公司一架喷气式飞机遭遇严重动荡之后,最近人们注意到可能使用LiDAR来改进飞机安全。
122That incident left one passenger dead and several others injured.这一事件造成一名乘客死亡,若干人受伤。
123Researchers have looked at LiDAR technology as a possible way to identify and track possibly dangerous air currents that may not be picked up by radar equipment.研究人员将LiDAR技术视为一种可能的方法,用以识别和跟踪雷达设备可能无法探测到的可能危险的气流.
124Reuters reported that Boeing began testing such a system in 2018.路透社报道,波音于2018年开始测试这样的系统.
125Technology experts are looking to possibly expand LiDAR as a tool to help predict turbulence.技术专家希望能够扩大LiDAR,作为预测动荡的工具。
126I'm Brian Lynn.我是布莱恩林恩。
127Brian Lynn joins me now to talk more about his technology report.布莱恩·林恩现在和我一起 更多地谈论他的科技报告
128Hi, Brian. Thanks for joining me.嗨,布莱恩。 谢谢你陪我
129Of course, Ashley. Thank you for having me.当然,阿什利。 谢谢你邀请我
130This week, you reported on a proposed new system to equip airplanes with self-taxing technology.这个星期,你汇报了一个 给飞机配备自税技术的新系统
131We learned that testing of such a system has already started in Europe.我们了解到,这种系统的试验已经开始在欧洲进行。
132But when can we expect to see experiments happening in other parts of the world?但是,我们何时能够期待在世界其他地方进行实验?
133So the research team at Airbus is saying these experiments are currently still in the beginning stages in France.所以空中客车的研究小组说,这些实验目前仍在法国的初始阶段.
134The system did recently receive a lot of attention when the technology was demonstrated at a large technology event in Paris.系统最近在巴黎的大型技术活动上演示技术时确实受到很多关注.
135And at that show, media representatives and members of the public were able to get a close-up look at how the self-taxing tool operates.而在那场演出中,媒体代表和公众都能够对自我课税工具的运作进行特写.
136But the researchers say they will have to carry out numerous experiments in airport settings to get the system ready for an eventual final test.但研究者说,他们必须在机场环境里进行许多实验,以使系统做好最终测试的准备.
137And that one is expected to demonstrate a fully automated gate-to-gate trip involving an A350 test aircraft.预计这架飞机将显示全自动的门对门飞行,涉及一架A350试验飞机。
138Some experts noted in the report the new Airbus experiments were announced after several accidents happened at airports that involved taxiing planes.一些专家在报告中指出,新的空中客车试验是在机场发生几起涉及出租车的事故之后宣布的。
139Did Airbus mention anything about those?空中客车有没有提到这些?
140No, Airbus has not directly linked its new experiments with those incidents.不,空中客车没有直接将其新的实验与这些事件联系起来。
141But company officials have said one of the main reasons this technology is being tested now is because of newer advancements with these systems and also the testing methods.但公司官员说,现在测试这种技术的主要原因之一 是因为这些系统有了新的进步 以及测试方法。
142And the company has also said one of the main goals of the project is to create a better system to assist pilots on the ground during taxiing operations, which can be quite dangerous.而该公司也表示,该项目的主要目标之一是创建一个更好的系统,在出租车作业中协助地面的飞行员,这可能是相当危险的.
143And while these taxi incidents usually do not result in injuries or deaths, they can cost airlines a lot of money and create major passenger delays.而虽然这些出租车事件通常不会造成人员伤亡,但它们会让航空公司花费很多钱,并造成乘客的重大延误.
144Okay. Thanks again for being here, Brian. And thank you for your report.摆 再次感谢你能来 布莱恩 谢谢你的报告

11Some people seem to be born with skill for making art.有些人似乎天生就拥有制作艺术的技能.
12加纳的Aisliam Angkra是一个很好的例子。
13He recently set a world record for his painting, and he is not even two years old.他最近为他的画创下了世界纪录,他甚至还没有两岁.
14Last week, the Guinness Book of World Records named little Aisliam the world's youngest male artist.上周,"世界唱片吉尼斯书"将小艾斯利安命名为世界最年轻的男艺人.
15他的母亲Chantel Kukua Egan 说婴儿的艺术是偶然开始的
16when her son discovered her acrylic paints.当她的儿子发现了她的丙烯颜料。
17He was six months old at the time.当时他6个月大.

22I spread out a canvas on the floor and added paint to it,我在地板上铺了张帆布,加了颜料,
23and then in the process of crawling, he ended up spreading all the colors on the canvas.然后在爬行的过程中,他最终在画布上传播了所有的颜色.
24And that is how his first artwork, The Crawl, was born, Egan told the Associated Press.Egan告诉美联社 他的第一部作品《爬行》就是这么诞生的
25After that, and with his mother's support, Aisliam continued making paintings.此后,在母亲的支持下,艾斯利安继续作画.
26Egan decided to apply for the record from Guinness a year ago.伊根一年前决定向吉尼斯申请记录.

28her son needed to publicly show and sell his paintings.她的儿子需要公开展示和出售他的画作。
29She set up Aisliam's first show at the Museum of Science and Technology in Accra in January.她于1月在阿克拉的科技博物馆建立了艾斯利安的第一个展出.

38On a recent day, he ran around the workspace with energy usual for children his age.最近一天,他带着他这个年龄的孩子通常的精力在工作空间四处跑动。

45Very small organisms that live in the world's farm fields release nitrous oxide gas.生活在世界农田中的极小生物释放出一氧化二氮气体.
46Some scientists link the gas to climate change.一些科学家将气体与气候变化联系起来.
47They are looking for a way to deal with the issue.他们正在寻找处理这一问题的办法。
48Now, some researchers think they have found bacteria that can help reduce the amount of nitrous oxide released.现在,一些研究者认为他们发现了能够帮助减少一氧化二氮释放量的细菌.
49In a recent publication of Nature, scientists said tests in the laboratory and in the field showed that one kind of bacteria在最近出版的《自然》中,科学家们说,在实验室和实地的测试表明,一种细菌
50reduced nitrous oxide without hurting other microbes in the soil.减少一氧化二氮而不伤害土壤中的其他微生物。
51The 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。
52Lars 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.
53He was one of the writers of the study.他是该研究的作家之一.
54Bakken said it opens up a number of new possibilities in bioengineering of the farmed soil.Bakken说,它为养殖土壤的生物工程开辟了许多新的可能性.
55The Associated Press reports that nitrous oxide can warm the atmosphere 265 times more than an equal amount of carbon dioxide.美联社报道,一氧化二氮能温暖大气层265倍于相等量的二氧化碳.
56Nitrous oxide can remain in the atmosphere for more than a hundred years.氧化氮可以在大气中停留100多年.
57Farmers' use of nitrogen fertilizer drives up the amount of nitrous oxide produced in soil.农民使用氮肥使土壤中产生的一氧化二氮量增加。
58The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said that, in 2022, nitrous oxide made up 6 percent of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions from human activities.美国环境保护局表示,2022年,一氧化二氮占美国人类活动温室气体排放总量的6%.
59That is a big problem in agriculture, said Lori Hoagland of Purdue University in the state of Indiana.印第安纳州普杜大学的Lori Hoagland说,这是一个农业方面的大问题。
60Hoagland was not involved in the recent study.Hoagland没有参与最近的研究。
61She described the plan to reduce nitrous oxide as really interesting.她形容减少一氧化二氮的计划非常有趣.
62Bakken and other researchers used organic waste to grow their bacteria.Bakken和其他研究者利用有机废物来培育他们的细菌.
63Building on past work, the researchers looked for a microorganism that would last long enough to reduce nitrous oxide emissions在以往工作的基础上,研究人员寻找一种能够持续足够长的时间来减少一氧化二氮排放的微生物。
64without staying in the soil so long that it hurt other life forms that are important for crop health.在土壤中停留的时间太长,以至于伤害了其他对作物健康很重要的生命形式。
65In field tests, the researchers used robots to measure nitrous oxide emissions during the day and during the night.在现场测试中,研究人员使用机器人测量白天和夜间的一氧化二氮排放.
66They compared conditions in soil with and without the bacteria.它们将土壤中的条件与细菌和无细菌相比。
67Researchers found the bacteria reduced the nitrous oxide emissions of the first fertilizer treatment by 94 percent.研究人员发现细菌将第一次化肥处理的一氧化二氮排放量减少了94%.
68Two weeks later, the bacteria reduced the emissions of a second fertilizer treatment by about half.两周后,细菌将第二次化肥处理的排放量减少了约一半.
69After about three months, there was no difference in the makeup of microbial life forms.大约三个月后,微生物生命形态的构成没有区别.
70This 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。
71The 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,
72machines 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。
73The researchers said the bacteria are not genetically modified.研究者表示细菌没有转基因.
74That might ease acceptance of their use, said Paul Carini of the University of Arizona.亚利桑那大学的保罗·卡里尼说,这可能会减少接受使用这些物质的可能性。
75Carini was also not involved in the research.卡里尼也没有参与研究.
76Bakken said the bacteria could be included in some fertilizers on farms in three to four years if people think it is worth the cost.Bakken说,如果人们认为这些细菌值得付出代价,那么这些细菌可以在三到四年内纳入农场的一些肥料中.
77Carini thinks using the bacteria is worth it.卡里尼认为利用细菌是值得的.
78Any time you're using a waste product from one industry to benefit another industry, that's pretty cost-effective, he said.他说,每当你使用一个行业的废品 来为另一个行业带来好处的时候, 成本效益相当高。
79However, 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。
80He thinks there must be additional incentives for emissions reductions.他认为,减排必须有额外的激励措施。
81The task for the authorities is to install policy instruments that makes it profitable in one way or another, he said.他说,当局的任务是安装政策工具,使其以某种方式盈利。
82Hoagland, the Purdue professor, said more research in field conditions would likely be needed before the bacteria could be used worldwide.Purdue教授Hoagland说,在全世界使用细菌之前,可能需要对现场条件进行更多的研究。
83That is because soil is different in places around the world.这是因为世界各地的土壤不同。
84If they can get this to work across soils, it would just have a tremendous impact, for sure, she said.如果它们能在土壤中发挥作用, 肯定会产生巨大的影响, 她说。

98The HIPPE program uses regular home visits and monthly group meetings to help parents learn how to improve early literacy and social and emotional skills.HIPPE方案利用定期家访和每月的小组会议帮助父母学习如何提高早期识字能力以及社会和情感技能。
99The workers went through the program themselves and often share the same language and background as the families they serve.工人自己通过这个方案,常常与他们所服务的家庭使用相同的语言和背景。
100The program operates mostly in poor neighborhoods and through school districts and organizations for immigrant and refugee families, said Miriam Westheimer.Miriam Westheimer说,该方案主要在贫穷的街区和通过校区及移民和难民家庭组织开展。
101She is chief program officer for HIPPE International, which operates in 15 countries and 20 U.S. states.她是在15个国家和20个美国州运作的HIPPE国际的首席方案干事。
102HHS has a program to provide money for maternal, infant, and early childhood home visiting, or MICVI, models.家庭保健系统有一个方案,为母亲、婴儿和幼儿家庭参观或MICVI模式提供资金。

107But in 2022, only about 270,000 did.但到了2022年,只有约27万.
108That is because the programs do not get enough money, said Dr. Michael Warren of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau.母婴健康局的Michael Warren博士说,这是因为这些方案没有足够的资金。
109That office oversees the MICVI programs.该办公室负责监督MICVI方案。
110If more resources exist, more families can be served, he said.他说,如果有更多的资源,就可以为更多的家庭提供服务。
111Federal spending on the MICVI program is set to double from $400 million to $800 million yearly by 2027.到2027年,联邦用于MICVI方案的开支将每年翻一番,从4亿美元增加到8亿美元。
112Beginning this year, the federal government will match $3 for every $1 in non-federal money spent on home visiting programs, up to a limit.从今年开始,联邦政府将支付3美元每1美元的非联邦资金用于家访计划,但不得超过限额。

121Parents also become better advocates for themselves and their children.父母也成为自己和子女更好的代言人。
122Research suggests that children who went through home visiting programs are better prepared for school.研究表明,通过家访方案的儿童对上学有更好的准备。
123Home visiting is not meant to be a replacement for other early learning experiences.家访并不意味着取代其他早期学习经验.
124But supporters say it can help create a strong foundation, especially for the many families which find early education programs too costly.但支持者说,这可以帮助建立一个坚实的基础,特别是对于许多认为早期教育方案费用太高的家庭来说。

136Hi, Ashley.嗨,艾许莉。
137Today'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.
138How 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?
139As 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.
140The Think Tank Center for American Progress says child care for an infant costs an average of $16,000 a year.美国进步智囊团中心说,每年平均需要花费16 000美元来照顾婴儿。
141That is 21% of the median income for a family of three.三口之家收入中位数的21%。
142That would include services like nannies or daycare, so yeah, really costly.包括保姆或日托服务,所以是的,非常昂贵。
143Home visiting is not around-the-clock child care, but trained professionals go into homes and work with parents with babies家访不是全天候的儿童保育,而是训练有素的专业人员回家,与有婴儿的父母一起工作。
144to 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
145For older toddlers, they teach parents how to be supportive in helping them read or play, for example.对于年长的幼儿,他们教父母如何支持他们读书或玩耍。
146These programs are often free of charge and supported by the Federal Department of Health and Human Services.这些方案往往是免费的,并得到联邦卫生和公众服务部的支持。
147As I mentioned in the story, many immigrant families have been able to take advantage of home visiting services.正如我在故事中提到的,许多移民家庭能够利用家访服务。
148Between work and other responsibilities, it can be hard for some parents to center all their attention on their children.在工作和其他责任之间,有些父母很难把注意力集中在子女身上。
149Recent immigrants might not be familiar with the American education system and might not know the best way to prepare their children for kindergarten.最近的移民可能不熟悉美国的教育制度,可能不知道让其子女为幼儿园做准备的最佳方法。
150So 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。
151You 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。
152But in 2022, only about 270,000 did. Why is that?但到了2022年,只有约27万. 为什么?
153Yes, these programs have been proven to help prepare children for school and strengthen relationships between parents and children.是的,这些方案已证明有助于儿童为上学做好准备,并加强父母与儿童之间的关系。
154But 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.
155That is because of a lack of funding.这是因为缺乏资金。
156Smaller local organizations need to operate home visiting programs like the one mentioned in the story from Colorado.更小的地方组织需要像故事中提到的科罗拉多州那样运行家访节目.
157But 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。
158But 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。
159Experts 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.
160All right. Thanks so much for joining me today, Dan.好吧,我们走。 谢谢你今天能来 丹
161You're welcome, Ashley.不用谢,阿什利。

166In 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.
167We 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.
168Pay careful attention to the word thieves.细察贼语.
169We 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。
170Most 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.
171The 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.
172The fob sends a short-range signal to the car.fob向车发出短程信号.
173As the owner gets close, the fob unlocks the door.随着主人接近,fob解锁了门.
174But 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.
175When 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.
176Thieves 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.
177If 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.
178Government 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.
179They also have asked them to make the fobs more secure.他们也要求他们提高安全性。
180Until 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?
181Steve Launchberry与美联社分享了一些建议.
182He 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.
183It's relatively easy for drivers to protect themselves, he said.他说,司机保护自己相对容易。
184The 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.
185One kind is called a Faraday bag. They are not very costly.一种叫做法拉第包. 费用并不高。
186The 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.
187Just 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
188Some 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.
189Launchberry 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
190You 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
191It turns out they are still useful. They may be considered old school,事实证明它们仍然有用。 他们可能被认为是旧的学校,
192but the presence of big locks that are easy to see makes car thieves turn away.但大锁的存在 很容易看到 汽车盗贼转身。
193The 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.
194Some car makers permit owners to deactivate the signals sent out by the fob.一些汽车制造商允许车主关闭fob发出的信号.
195For 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.
196For 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.
197Read 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。
198Some 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.
199If 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.
200If 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.
201Launchberry 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.
202The 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.
203He said some thieves are trying to join the CAN through some physical electronic connection to unlock the car.他说有些小偷试图通过一些物理电子连接加入CAN,以解锁汽车.
204They 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.
205The 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,如解锁或启动.
206Launchberry said this is where the physical lock can cause thieves to change their mind and force them to move on.Launchberry说,这是物理锁可以导致盗贼改变主意,迫使他们继续前进的地方.
207Owners can also consider electronic immobilizers.所有人还可考虑电子机动车。
208These 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.
209However, immobilizers can be costly.然而,不动武器可能代价高昂。
210Before 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.
211Can you remember when you heard it?你还记得你听到吗?
212You heard the term used several times in the report.你听到报告中多次使用这个词。
213Let's listen to the first example.愿听第一义譬.
214Thieves 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.
215The word thieves is a plural noun.盗贼一词是一个复数名词.
216We spell thieves like this.我们这样拼写小偷
217T -H -I
218The singular form of thieves is thief.窃贼的独有形式是盗贼.
219We spell thief like this.我们这样拼写贼
220T -H -I
221A thief is a person who steals something.贼是盗物之人.
222When one thief works with another thief, we get two thieves.当一个贼和另一个贼合作时,我们得到两个贼.
223Both the singular thief and the plural thieves have the same vowel sound, E.单数的贼和复数的贼都有相同的元音,E.
224Thief, thieves.贼,贼也.
225The 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.
226Thief ends in the consonant sound, F.F. 盗贼以一致的声音结束
227This is a voiceless sound.这是一个无声的声音。
228In other words, you should not feel your vocal cords moving when you pronounce it.换句话说,你不应该感觉到你的声带在发音时会移动.
229Thieves ends with two consonant sounds, VZ.贼以两个谐音结尾,VZ.
230These are both voiced consonant sounds.这两种声音都是一致的。
231You should feel your vocal cords move when you pronounce these sounds.你应该感觉到你的声带移动 当你发出这些声音。
232Let's work together to improve our pronunciation of thief and thieves.同心协力,提高盗贼的读音.
233We will start with the last sound in thief.我们先从小偷最后的声音开始
234Repeat after me.跟着我重复一遍

50The agency is also helping train them in raising livestock and chickens.该机构还帮助培训他们饲养牲畜和鸡。
51Several women recently gathered in a Kaltongo village to learn how to prepare those foods.一些妇女最近聚集在一个Kaltongo村,学习如何准备这些食物。
52Even without rain, they can be grown in sand-filled containers that require little water.即使没有降雨,它们也可以生长在需要很少水的填沙容器中.

72South Korea has created a new national space agency to increase its capabilities and is aiming for a future Mars landing.韩国已设立了一个新的国家空间局,以提高其能力,并正致力于今后的火星着陆。
73President Jung Suk-yul recently announced the establishment of the Korea Aerospace Administration, CASA.郑书尧总统最近宣布成立韩国航空航天管理局(CASA).
74He said the country plans to spend about $70 billion on future space exploration.他说该国计划在未来的空间探索上花费约700亿美元.
75I have always believed that there is an infinite dream and future in outer space, Yoon said.Yoon说,我始终认为,外层空间有无限的梦想和未来。
76The South Korean leader added that the agency would seek to land a homegrown probe on the moon by 2032 and plant the South Korean flag on Mars by 2045.韩国领导人补充说,该机构将寻求在2032年前在月球上登陆本土探测器,并在2045年前在火星上种植韩国国旗.
77South Korean space officials say the newly formed agency will aim to establish better cooperation than in the past, when different government ministries were involved in space activities.南朝鲜空间官员说,新成立的机构的目标是建立比过去更好的合作,因为过去政府各部都参与了空间活动。
78All space efforts are now to be developed under the CASA.所有空间工作现在都将在小武器问题协调行动下进行。
79South Korea became the seventh country to own an indigenous space launch rocket.韩国成为第七个拥有本土空间发射火箭的国家.
80Last May, that vehicle, called Nury, successfully launched a large satellite into orbit.去年5月,那辆叫做Nury的汽车成功地将一颗大型卫星送入轨道。
81Additional Nury rocket launches are planned. One is set for the second half of 2025.计划再发射努里火箭。 一个定于2025年下半年举行。
82In the next three years, South Korea plans at least three more space launches.在接下来的三年里,韩国计划至少再进行三次太空发射.
83It also aims to launch several military satellites.它还旨在发射数颗军用卫星。
84A CASA statement said the agency is modeled after the American space agency, NASA.CASA的一份声明说,该机构是仿照美国航天局,NASA的.
85It said CASA would act as an aerospace control tower to oversee space policy, satellite development, and exploration missions.它说,CASA将作为航空航天控制塔,监督空间政策、卫星开发和探索任务。
86Planned cooperative projects include expanding South Korea's involvement in Artemis III, NASA's planned effort to put astronauts back on the moon by 2026.计划的合作项目包括扩大韩国对阿耳忒弥斯三世的参与,美国宇航局计划在2026年让宇航员重返月球.
87Research and development at CASA will be led by John Lee, who spent 30 years with NASA.CASA的研发工作将由与NASA共事30年的约翰·李(John Lee)领导.
88Yoon said the country's space development budget would increase by $1.1 billion by 2027.尹说到2027年,国家空间开发预算将增加11亿美元.
89That is double the current space budget.这是目前空间预算的两倍。
90CASA will be headquartered in the city of Seochon, in South Korea's far south.CASA将总部设在韩国远南的徐川市.
91Yoon noted the government's plan to create the Toulouse of Asia in Seochon.尹注意到政府计划在徐川创建亚洲图卢兹.
92He was speaking about the southwestern French city of Toulouse, which developed into a European space capital because Airbus is headquartered there.他讲的是法国西南部城市图卢兹,由于空中客车的总部设在该地,图卢兹发展成为欧洲的航天首都.
93CASA's planned moon landing in 2032 will be a joint project with Hanwha Aerospace, South Korea's largest defense and aerospace company.CASA计划在2032年登陆的月球将是与韩国最大的国防和航空航天公司Hanwha Aerospace的一个联合项目.

133As for cows, University of Pennsylvania researcher Scott Hensley worked with Nobel Prize winner至于牛,宾夕法尼亚大学研究员斯科特·亨斯利与诺贝尔奖得主合作
134Drew Weissman on an experimental vaccine similar to the Moderna one for people.德鲁·魏斯曼(Drew Weissman)在实验性疫苗上与现代疫苗相似,为人们所用.

139All the vaccinated animals survived, and the unvaccinated did not, Hensley said.所有接种疫苗的动物都幸存下来,而未接种疫苗的动物没有幸存下来,亨斯利说.
140The vaccine was really successful, said Webby of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis.疫苗很成功,孟菲斯的圣裘德儿童研究医院的韦比说.
141His lab did that work last year in partnership with Hensley.他的实验室去年和亨斯利合作完成了这项工作.
142The cow study will be similar to the early testing done in smaller animals.牛的研究将类似于在较小的动物身上所做的早期测试.
143The plan is for about 10 small cows to be vaccinated, half with one shot and half with another.计划约10头小牛接种疫苗,一半用一针,一半用另一针.
144Then their blood will be examined to look for how much bird flu-fighting antibodies were produced.然后将检查他们的血液,以寻找出多少禽流感抗体.
145Hensley said that if a vaccine reduces the amount of virus in the cow, then ultimately亨斯利说如果疫苗能减少牛体内病毒的数量 那么最终
146we reduce the chance that a mutant virus that spreads in humans is going to emerge.我们减少在人类中传播的变种病毒出现的机会。

196You're listening to The Lesson of the Day on the Learning English Podcast.你在听学习英语节目的课
197Welcome to the part of the show where we help you do more with our video series, Let's Learn English.欢迎来到节目中 我们帮助你做更多的 视频系列,让我们学习英语。
198This series shows Anna Matteo in her work and life in Washington, D.C.这个系列展示了安娜·马特奥在华盛顿特区的工作和生活.
199Today, we're going to look at the language in Lesson 48 of the series.今天,我们将研究系列第48课的语言.
200In this lesson, Anna meets a tourist visiting Washington and helps her find some places to visit.在这个课中,安娜遇到一位来访的游客,帮助她找到一些可以访问的地方.
201Hello. I have lived in Washington, D.C. for a long time now.哈罗 我已在华盛顿特区居住了很长时间。
202And I have done a lot.我做过很多事
203I feel that I know this city pretty well.我觉得我很了解这座城市
204Wait, that's the wrong way. Where is it again?等等,这是错误的方式。 又在甚么处.
205Excuse me. Can I help you?对不起。 有什么事吗?
206Have we met before?我们以前见过面吗?
207I don't think so. I've just flown in from Boston. My name is Jean.亦不见. 我刚从波士顿飞过来 我叫让
208Hi, Jean. I'm Anna.嗨,让。 我叫安娜,你好吗?
209I really feel like we've met before. Anyway, how can I help?我觉得我们以前见过面 总之,我能帮上什么忙?
210I want to see an interesting museum, but I don't know which one.我想看一个有趣的博物馆 但我不知道是哪个
211I can help with that. I've lived in Washington, D.C. a long time.我可以帮你 常住华严.
212I think I've seen all the museums.我想我看过所有的博物馆
213Wow, thanks. So tell me, which museums are good?谢谢 告诉我,哪个博物馆是好的?
214Well, they are all good, but they're all different.嗯,他们都很好,但他们都不同。
215There are science museums and history museums and art and culture museums.有科学博物馆和历史博物馆以及艺术和文化博物馆。
216I want to see an unusual museum.我想看看一个不寻常的博物馆。
217I like the sculpture garden. Have you ever seen sculptures in a garden?我喜欢雕塑花园 你见过花园里的雕塑吗?
218It is really artistic.这是真正的艺术。
219I have never seen a garden of sculptures. I'll write that on my list.我从没见过雕塑的花园 我会写在我的名单上。
220I noticed in this part that both Anna and Jean are using the present perfect tense to talk about their experiences.我注意到安娜和让都利用了现在的完美时态 来讲述他们的经历
221It's common to hear that in this kind of situation.常闻此境界.
222That's right. We use the present perfect tense to talk about an action in the past that is important in the present.没错 我们利用目前的完美时态来谈论过去一项在当前非常重要的行动。
223For example, we heard Anna say,例如,我们听到安娜说,
224I 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。
225The present perfect may be confusing for learners because we use it to talk about a past action.目前的完美可能令学习者感到困惑,因为我们用它来谈论过去的行为.
226It is called present perfect because speakers use it to stress the importance of a past event in the present.它被称为“目前完美”,因为发言者利用它强调过去活动在当前的重要性。
227You 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,
228I've just flown in from Boston.我刚从波士顿飞过来
229The sentence, I've just flown in from Boston stresses the present effect of a past event, the travel from Boston.这句话,我刚从波士顿飞过来 强调了过去事件目前的影响, 从波士顿出发的旅行。
230The exact time of the travel is not important.旅行的确切时间并不重要.
231To form the present perfect, we use two verbs, a main verb and an auxiliary verb.为了形成现在的完美,我们使用两个动词,一个主动词和一个辅助动词.
232The auxiliary verb is have or has, and the main verb is in something we call the past participle form.辅助动词有或有,而主动词是在我们称之为过去participle形式的东西中.
233For regular verbs, that just means you add D or ED to the base form of the verb.对于普通动词,仅指在动词的基质形式中加入D或ED.
234Yeah, like live and lived. Let's give another example.是啊,像活着和活着。 再举个例子
235Have you ever lived in another country?你住过别的国家吗?
236I have lived in another country. I've lived in France for a little while.我住在另一个国家。 我在法国住了一段时间
237And I've also been lucky because I've visited many different countries.我也很幸运 因为我访问了很多不同的国家
238So those verbs, visited, lived, they follow the rule and just add D or ED to the base form.因此,这些动词,访问,生活,他们遵循规则,只是将D或ED加入到基数表.
239But for irregular verbs, you might find different forms for the past participle.但对于不规则的动词,你可能会为过去的participle找到不同的形式.
240For example, the past participle of fly is flown, just like the past participle of sea is seen.例如,过去飞行的飞行,就像过去飞行的海洋一样。
241For example, we can say, I've seen that movie.比如,我们可以说,我看过那部电影。
242Another way you can hear the present perfect in this conversation is with the adverbs ever and never.另一种方式,你可以听到现在的完美 在这个谈话中,是和副词 永远和永远。
243Listen again to this part.复听此部分.
244I like the sculpture garden. Have you ever seen sculptures in a garden?我喜欢雕塑花园 你见过花园里的雕塑吗?
245It is really artistic.这是真正的艺术。
246I have never seen a garden of sculptures. I'll write that on my list.我从没见过雕塑的花园 我会写在我的名单上。
247The sculpture garden is a beautiful place just a few blocks away from our office.雕塑园是一个美丽的地方 就在几条街外 我们的办公室。
248I noticed there that Jean used the negative adverb never,我注意到让从未使用过负面副词
249which 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
250I sometimes hear English learners saying I have ever when they want to say they have had an experience.有时,我听到英语学习者说,我曾经想说,他们有过经历。
251But that's not correct. Is it, Jill?但这样不对 是吗,吉尔?
252No, I've heard that too.不 我也听说了
253I think the way to understand this is to remember we usually only use ever in a question formed with the present perfect,我认为理解这一点的方法 是记住我们通常只用在 与现在的完美,
254not in a statement or an answer to a question.不是在陈述或回答一个问题。
255You 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。
256What's that, Jill?那是什么,吉尔?
257She says she'll add the sculpture garden to her list.她说她会把雕塑花园列入她的名单.
258In each of these lessons, we have included a different learning strategy to guide people to be more effective language learners.在每一个课程中,我们都包含一个不同的学习战略,指导人们成为更有效的语言学习者。
259In this particular lesson, the strategy is focus attention.在这一特殊教训中,该战略是重点关注的重点。
260By making a list, Jean is helping herself remember the places she wants to go.通过列表,让帮助自己 记住她想去的地方。
261And she can prioritize her time too.她也可以把时间排在首位
262By seeing that she has five places to visit in one day, she can decide how much time to spend at each one.通过看到她一天内有五个地方可以访问,她可以决定每个地方花费多少时间.
263Prioritize means to decide which things are more important than others.优先决定是指决定哪些事物比其他事物更重要.
264But, Jill, our listeners might want to know why Anna said Jean looks familiar to her.但是吉尔 我们的听众可能想知道 安娜为什么说让看起来很眼熟
265Oh, that's easy.哦,这很简单。
266The same member of our staff played a genie in another episode of Let's Learn English.我们的工作人员在另一集"让我们学英语"中扮演了一个精灵.
267She magically changed Anna's costume for Halloween.她神奇地改变了安娜的万圣节服装.

10But first, Katie Weaver reports on a Nigerian town losing ground to the sea.但首先,凯蒂·韦弗(英语:Katie Weaver)报道了尼日利亚一个城镇失地入海的情况.
11The coastal Nigerian community of Ayotoro was founded in 1947.阿约托罗沿海尼日利亚社区成立于1947年.
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.
13But now its remaining people can do little against the rising sea.但是现在它剩下的人 对不断上升的海洋却无能为力
14Sunken buildings are an increasingly common image along West Africa's at-risk coast on the Atlantic Ocean.沉没的建筑物是沿西非大西洋濒危海岸越来越常见的形象.
15Pieces of wood stick out from the waves.木块从波浪而出.
16Broken structures line the shore.断裂的结构 线岸。
17Waves break against old electrical poles.波折对旧电极.
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 Akinboye is a church leader in Ayotoro.汤普森·阿金博耶(Thompson Akinboye)是阿约托罗的一位教会领袖.
21He said prayers against the rising sea are on the lips of everybody at Sunday services.他说,在周日礼拜的每个人的嘴上,都有针对上升的海洋的祈祷。
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。
23Even the church has been moved away from the sea two times.连教堂也两次迁离海面.
24The present location is now also threatened, with the sea just 30 meters away, Akinboye said.阿金博伊说,目前的位置现在也受到威胁,只有30米以外的海域。
25Thousands of people have left.成千上万的人离开了。
26Among those who remain, Stephen Toonleys can only look at what is left of his clothing shop from a distance.在留下来的人中,Stephen Toonleys只能从远处看他服装店剩下的东西.
27Toonleys said he lost $5,500 to the sea.通利说,他损失了5500美元到海边.
28Now, with water everywhere, he repairs canoes.现在,到处都是水,他修理了独木舟。
29I will stay in Ayotoro because this is my father's land, he said.我将留在阿约托罗 因为这是我父亲的土地,他说。
30In the past 30 years, Ayotoro has lost more than 10 square kilometers to the sea.在过去的30年中,阿约托罗失去了超过10平方公里的海域.
31Researchers studying satellite imagery of Nigeria's coast say several things are responsible for Ayotoro's disappearance.研究尼日利亚海岸卫星图像的研究人员说,阿约托罗失踪的原因有几件事.
32Akinboye is a marine geologist at the Federal University of Technology in Akure.阿金博伊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。
34As oil is removed, the ground can sink, he said.他说,随着石油被清除,地面会下沉。
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、三角洲和克罗斯河的沿海退化成本。
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。
42It looked at erosion, flooding, mangrove loss and pollution, and noted the high rate of urbanization in the country.它研究了侵蚀、洪水、红树林损失和污染,并注意到该国城市化率很高。
43Nigeria only pays attention to coastal communities from time to time when the yearly flooding happens, but the people of Ayotoro cannot turn away.尼日利亚只在每年发生洪水时不时地关注沿海社区,但阿约托罗人民不能拒绝。
44Ayotoro was like a paradise, a city where everyone lived joyfully, happily, said Arawolo Mofelua, a retired civil servant.阿约托罗就像一个天堂,一个人人都快乐地生活的城市,快乐地说,退休的公务员阿拉沃洛·莫费卢亚.
45She 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.
46This 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。
47Four or five people living in a small room, you can just imagine how painful it is, Mofelua said.住在一间小房间里的四五个人,你可以想象它有多痛苦,莫费卢亚说.
48If you look where the sea is now, that is the end of the former Ayotoro.若观海现处即前阿 Ay多罗三藐三菩提.
49For Oluwambe Ojagbohunmi, the community's traditional leader and head of the local church, the pain is not only in the loss of land.对于奥卢瓦姆贝·奥贾格博洪米(Oluwambe Ojagbohunmi)来说,该社区的传统领袖和地方教会的负责人,痛苦不仅在于失去土地.
50He says the community is losing in our sociocultural and religious identity.他说社区正在失去我们的社会文化和宗教特性。
51Early this year, the Ondo state government said it would find lasting solutions to the threat to Ayotoro, a promise people say has been made before.今年初,翁多州政府说,它将找到解决对阿约托罗的威胁的持久办法,人们曾说,这是一个承诺。
52It 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。
53For 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,以更好地了解造成社区消失的原因。
54But nothing has been done.但是没有做任何事情。
55The Niger Delta Development Commission, a government body meant in part to deal with environmental and other issues caused by oil exploration,尼日尔三角洲发展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,
56did not answer questions from the Associated Press about efforts to protect the community's coastline.没有回答美联社提出的保护社区海岸线努力的问题。
57The commission's website lists a coastline protection project in Ayotoro.委员会的网站列出了阿约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.研究人员试图了解为什么鸟流感会很快杀死一些动物,但在另一些动物中却只导致中度疾病.
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 nonprofit group Resolve to Save Lives.弗里登还领导非营利团体"决心拯救生命".
80He added, I think we have to get over the hope for the best and bury our head in the sand approach.他补充说,我认为我们必须克服对最好的希望,将我们的头埋在沙滩上。
81Some 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.
82For 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。
83Many 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。
84But 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.
85At this time, they are not planning other measures.目前,它们没有计划其他措施。
86This 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
87and 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。
88The U.S. Department of Agriculture has said,美国农业部表示,
89U.S. animal outbreaks have been reported at numerous dairy cow farms and among more than 1,000 groups of poultry.据报道,美国在众多奶牛养殖场和1000多组家禽中爆发了动物疫情.
90At 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.
91Worldwide, 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.
92That 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。
93But 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.
94Some 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.
95But 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.
96Sky Watchers have had a busy year so far in 2024.天空观察者在2024年至今已经度过了繁忙的一年.

101Coming 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.
102This 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.
103A nova is a star explosion.新星是一颗恒星爆炸
104A pair of stars called T. corona borealis, called the blaze star, will become very bright so people almost everywhere on Earth, even in cities, can see it.一对叫做T. corona birenalis的恒星,叫做火焰之星, 将会变得非常明亮, 这样地球上几乎任何地方的人,即使在城市里,都能看见它。
105Scientists say the event will be visible to the naked eye, which means you do not need any special tools like binoculars or a telescope to see it.科学家们说,这个事件会在肉眼可见,这意味着你不需要任何特殊的工具,如望远镜或望远镜来看到它.
106Visible 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.
107The 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.
108Rebecca Hounsell is an assistant research scientist specializing in nova events at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.Rebecca Hounsell是美国国家航空航天局位于马里兰州格林贝尔特的戈达德航天飞行中心(英语:Goddard Space Flight Center)的一名助理研究科学家,专门研究诺瓦事件.
109We don't often see a repeated outburst in a human lifetime and rarely one so relatively close to our own system, Hounsell said.Hounsell说,我们并不经常看到人类一生中反复爆发,很少看到如此接近我们自己的系统。
110Material 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.
111This makes the bright light we can see from Earth.这使得我们从地球上可以看到明亮的光芒.
112Scientists say they are not sure exactly when we will be able to see the nova, but you will surely hear about it on the news.科学家们说,他们不确定我们何时能看到新星,但你们肯定会在新闻上听到。
113Your next question might be, how can I find it in the sky?下一个问题可能是,我怎么能在天空中找到它?
114This is when you will need to know the word constellation and how to find one in the sky.这时你需要知道 星座这个词 以及如何在天空中找到一个。
115A constellation is a group of stars.一个星座是一组恒星.
116Some constellations look like particular shapes to people on Earth.一些星座看起来像地球上人的特殊形状.
117The nova coming this year is in the constellation Corona Borealis or Northern Crown.今年的诺瓦星座是科罗纳波雷利斯星座或北王室星座。
118There are many uses for the preposition between for talking about the upcoming nova and its constellation.在谈论即将到来的诺瓦星座和它的星座之间,预先位置有许多用途.
119If you make an imaginary line between the stars in it, you get a curved line that looks like a headpiece worn by kings and queens.如果你在其中的恒星之间做一条假想的线条,你得到一条弯曲的线条,看起来像是国王和皇后们戴的头巾.
120To find it, you can look for the two brightest stars in the northern hemisphere, Arcturus and Vega.为了找到它,你可以寻找北半球最亮的两颗恒星,阿克图鲁斯和维加.
121In the space between them, you will find two constellations, Hercules and Bootes.在它们之间的空间里 你会发现两个星座 海格力斯和布特斯
122Northern Crown is between them.北冠在他们之间
123People enjoyed another event in the sky in April, a total eclipse of the sun.人们在4月在天空中享受了另一场活动,即日全食.
124The moon moved between Earth and the sun, causing a shadow or an area of darkness on Earth.月球在地球和太阳之间移动,造成地球上的阴影或一片黑暗.
125The path of the moon's shadow on Earth is called the path of totality.月球在地球上的影子的路径被称为整体的路径.
126We can change an adjective, such as total, to a noun with the noun suffix ity.我们可以将一个形容词,如总词,改为名词后缀的词.
127The resulting noun means the state or condition of what the adjective describes.由此产生的名词是指形容词所描述的状态或条件.
128For example, it is used with active to form activity.例如,它与活动一起用于形成活动.
129The next total eclipse on Earth will be August 12, 2026, and it will be visible in Spain.地球上下一次总日食是2026年8月12日,将在西班牙可见.
130And that's everyday grammar.这是日常的语法。

173Cheerful means happy and sharing good feelings with others.欢乐意味着快乐并与他人分享美好的感情.
174So, if Ana teams up with someone different, that person probably doesn't usually want to be around a lot of people.所以,如果安娜和不同的人组队, 那个人可能通常不想在很多人身边。
175Team up with is another phrasal verb.团队配合是另一种词性动词.
176Dr. Jill and I team up with each other to do the lesson of the day on the Learning English podcast.吉尔博士和我联手合作 在学习英语播客上上课

192Tear up is a phrasal verb, and Professor Bott tells us about another one.撕裂是一个词性动词,博特教授告诉我们另一个词.

195Thanks, Professor Bott.谢谢,博特教授
196But, since our listeners are not watching the video, we should explain that throw away means to place something in a waste container.但是,由于我们的听众不看视频,我们应该解释,丢弃意味着把东西放进垃圾箱.
197Now, let's see how Pete does in his interview with Ms. Weaver.看看皮特在采访韦弗女士时表现如何
198Thanks for coming in, Pete.谢谢你能来 皮特
199Thanks for the opportunity, Ms. Weaver.谢谢你给我这个机会 Weaver女士
200I need to find out if you have the skills for this job, and I want you to be completely honest.我要查清楚你是否有能力做这份工作 我要你完全诚实

203Well, okay. Sometimes I think people talk too much.嗯,没关系。 有时候我觉得人们说得太多了
204Pete, what work of yours are you most proud of?皮特,你做什么工作最骄傲?
205Last year, I locked myself in a cabin and wrote a book. I didn't speak to anybody the entire time. It was the best two months of my life.去年,我把自己锁在一间小屋里,写了本书. 我一直都没有跟任何人说话 这是我生命中最好的两个月。
206Okay. I think I've heard enough.摆 我想我听够了。
207It sounds like Pete is not a people person.听起来皮特不是一个人
208你觉得Weaver女士会和Anna合作吗?

210That's because she wanted Anna to team up with someone different from herself.那是因为她想让安娜和自己不同的人合作
211Grumpy is an adjective to describe a person's mood or personality. It describes someone who is a bit unhappy or does not share positive feelings with others.暴躁是形容一个人的情绪或人格的形容词. 它描述了一个有点不高兴或者不与他人分享积极感情的人.
212I remember some years ago on YouTube there was a grumpy cat that became very popular. The cat's face made it look grumpy.我记得几年前在YouTube上 有只脾气暴躁的猫 变得非常流行 这只猫的脸看起来很暴躁
213Yes. All you need to do is enter the word grumpy in YouTube or Google and you will find many pictures and videos of that cat.对 你只需要在YouTube或Google中输入暴躁这个词, 你会发现很多关于那只猫的照片和视频。
214So we find that Pete got hired for an unusual reason, because he was grumpy and not a people person. So that makes him different from Anna.所以,我们发现皮特被雇佣的原因不同寻常, 因为他脾气暴躁,不是一个人。 这使得他与安娜不同。
215Well, they say that good teams need to have different kinds of people on them.他们说好球队需要不同的人
216What does that say about us, Andrew? I think we have different ways of teaching, but together they work pretty well.安德鲁,这对我们有什么影响? 我认为我们有不同的教学方式,但是它们一起运作得很好。
217In future episodes of Let's Learn English Level 2, we'll see the kinds of assignments Anna and Pete take on.在"让我们学英语2级"的未来剧集中,我们会看到安娜和皮特承担的各种任务.

226To take on something is to accept a duty, job or responsibility.承担某种责任就是接受一项义务、工作或责任。
227We say we take on a new job, we take on work, we take on a new role, take on responsibilities and so on.我们说,我们承担新的工作,我们承担工作,我们承担新的角色,承担责任等等.
228And this phrasal verb is separable. For example, if we use the pronoun it, we can say take it on.而此语法动词可分. 例如,如果我们使用代词它,我们可以说接受它.
229But if we use a longer noun like assignment, we place that noun after the phrasal verb. So we say take on the assignment.但是,如果我们使用更长的名词像任务, 我们把名词放在词组动词之后。 所以我们说接受任务
230We hope you will watch all the lessons in Let's Learn English to see what roles Anna takes on.我们希望你们能用英语来学习 安娜扮演的角色
231And have you taken on a new role at work or in life recently?你最近有没有在工作或生活中扮演新角色?

222The 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。
223When we are speaking quickly, the first vowel of the noun effect is reduced to the quick当我们说话快的时候,名词效应的第一个元音会降低到快速

308We 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。
309When 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。
