Dreamliner test flight success
夢幻飛機試飛成功
A Boeing Dreamliner takes to the skies for a test flight that brings it a crucial stage closer to getting back in the air. The aircraft took off near Seattle on Friday to prove a new system to stop the plane's lithium-ion batteries overheating or catching fire is working. When it touched down nearly two hours later Boeing said the flight had been uneventful and straightforward. The words appear non-committal but the flight concludes testing after little more than three weeks on the battery fix. Now regulators in the U.S., Japan and Europe have to decide if they're satisfied Boeing's solution is safe. Industry officials and airlines which operate the Dreamliner have said they expect it back in the air by May at the latest.
波音公司的夢幻客機進(jìn)行試飛測試，這是它是否能夠重返天空的一個至關(guān)重要的階段。周五，夢幻客機在西雅圖附近起飛以驗證新的系統(tǒng)能防止鋰電池過熱和著火的情況。飛機降落約2小時后，波音公司稱測試過程飛行平穩(wěn)順利。但該講話似乎不置可否，因為電池修復(fù)僅用了三周多點時間就進(jìn)行測試推斷。目前，美國、日本和歐洲監(jiān)管機構(gòu)必須決定波音公司的解決方案是否安全。行業(yè)官員和航空公司表示他們希望最遲在五月夢幻客機能重返天空。
Shanghai authorities announce halt to poultry sales
上海當(dāng)局宣布停止家禽銷售
A full stop to poultry sales. Authorities in Shanghai will halt all local sales of poultry beginning Saturday. It's in response to six deaths in eastern China from a deadly new strain of the bird flu virus. In Shanghai, where four of the six deaths occurred, poultry markets were already being shut down, the live birds culled and incinerated.
家禽市場完全關(guān)閉。從周六開始，上海當(dāng)局將停止所有本地家禽的銷售，以應(yīng)對中國東部地區(qū)出現(xiàn)的已造成六人死亡的新致命流感病毒。六名死亡病例中有四人來自上海，目前家禽市場已關(guān)閉，活禽被挑選出來宰殺。
The city's Center for Disease Control reminded residents the new strain of the virus, called H7N9, doesn't transmit from person to person. But Hong Kong authorities are taking extra precautions, after the first suspected case of the H7N9 virus was discovered in that city. The patient is a seven-year-old girl who fed wild pigeons during a recent trip to mainland China. She's quarantined at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in stable condition. But if her test comes back positive for H7N9, Hong Kong will activate a gradual contingency plan for an influenza pandemic.
上海疾病控制中心提醒居民，新的流感病毒（H7N9）不會在人與人之間傳播。但香港當(dāng)局在發(fā)現(xiàn)第一例H7N9病毒疑似病例后正在采取額外的預(yù)防措施。患者是一名七歲的小女孩，最近前往過大陸并喂養(yǎng)了鴿子。目前她被隔離在伊麗莎白女王醫(yī)院，情況穩(wěn)定。如果一旦測出H7N9呈陽性，香港將啟動更高級別的流感應(yīng)急計劃。
China culls birds as flu deaths mount
新禽流感致死亡人數(shù)增加 活禽被挑宰殺
China faces a new type of bird flu. Mainland China has six confirmed deaths from a deadly new strain of the virus known as H7N9. And on Friday authorities slaughtered over 20,000 birds at this poultry market in Shanghai which has now been closed down. There are 14 confirmed cases of the H7N9 virus, all of them in eastern China. At least four of the dead are in Shanghai. At this hospital in the Chinese financial hub doctors say one bird flu patient is fighting for his life in intensive care. The World Health Organization said there was no sign of "sustained human-to-human transmission.'' WHO scientists are analysing samples of the virus in case a vaccine is needed. Meanwhile Hong Kong's government confirmed the city's first suspected case of H7N9 bird flu, found in a seven-year-old girl who had recently travelled to mainland China.
中國出現(xiàn)新品種禽流感病毒。截至目前，該病毒（H7N9）已造成中國大陸六人死亡。周五上海當(dāng)局在這個現(xiàn)已關(guān)閉的活禽市場宰殺了2萬只家禽。已發(fā)現(xiàn)的14個H7N9流感病例都來自中國東部地區(qū)。死亡病例中至少有4人來自上海。作為中國的金融中心，上海這家醫(yī)院的醫(yī)生表示，一名禽流感病人正處于重癥監(jiān)護(hù)下，生命岌岌可危。世界衛(wèi)生組織表示，并沒有跡象表明病毒會在人際間傳播，世界衛(wèi)生組織的科學(xué)家正在分析病毒樣品，希望獲得病毒的疫苗。與此同時，香港已經(jīng)證實了首位H7N9疑似病例，是一名剛剛前往大陸的七歲小女孩。
