Wildfire near Yosemite threatens power in San Francisco
加州大火蔓延 舊金山電力受威脅
A vast California wildfire sweeps further into Yosemite National park, a major tourist destination in the U.S. The blaze exploded in size overnight and resisted efforts to control it, despite thousands of fire-fighters battling the flames. The park has the electrical infrastructure serving the city and powerlines in San Francisco have been forced to shut down. The California governor has declared a state of emergency. It's one of the fastest moving of 50 large wildfires raging across the parched west of the U.S., blackening around 11,000 acres..... forcing holiday-makers to flee the area during peak season and placing thousands of homes under threat.
加州大火進(jìn)一步蔓延至優(yōu)勝美地國(guó)家公園，美國(guó)主要的旅游勝地。大火一夜之間爆發(fā)，盡管數(shù)千名消防員努力滅火，然而撲救工作收效甚微。優(yōu)勝美地國(guó)家公園設(shè)有供應(yīng)城市的電力基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施，舊金山電路被迫關(guān)閉。加利福尼亞州州長(zhǎng)已經(jīng)宣布進(jìn)入緊急狀態(tài)。這是肆虐美國(guó)西部的50起火災(zāi)中蔓延最快的，焚燒了11,000英畝的土地，迫使度假者在旅游高峰期逃離該地區(qū)，數(shù)千座房屋受到威脅。
Japan's nuclear authority inspects Fukushima leak
核機(jī)構(gòu)審查福島核電站放射物質(zhì)泄漏
Officials from Japan's nuclear authority inspect the giant storage tanks at the Fukushima plant. They say 300 tonnes of radiactive water has leaked from one of these tanks into the ground. Around a million tonnes of water has been stored in 350 tanks to cool the melted reactor cores after the plant was crippled by the earthquake and tsunami in 2011. The water is extremely toxic. Inspectors here say Tokyo Electric Power company -- the operator of the plant -- was careless in monitoring the tanks. They criticised TEPCO for failing to keep records of inspections, missing the problems. Since one of the tanks started leaking, radioactive water has been pumped into storage pits above ground. So far enough water to fill more than 130 Olympic swimming pools has been moved and the plant is quickly running out of space. As the sheer scale of the problem becomes apparent, fears of fresh leaks are rising. Some experts say to contain the most toxic waste, less contaminated water will have to be dumped into the sea.
日本核機(jī)構(gòu)官員對(duì)福島核電站龐大的儲(chǔ)水罐進(jìn)行了檢查。他們表示，其中一座儲(chǔ)水罐已經(jīng)向地面滲透了300噸放射性污水。自2011年該核電站遭遇地震和海嘯損壞以來，350個(gè)儲(chǔ)水罐中存儲(chǔ)了大約100萬噸水，用來冷卻融化的反應(yīng)堆芯。這些污水毒性非常高。這里的巡視員表示，核電站運(yùn)營(yíng)商?hào)|京電力公司在監(jiān)測(cè)儲(chǔ)水罐方面存在疏忽。他們批評(píng)東京電力公司未記錄監(jiān)測(cè)情況，疏忽了如此嚴(yán)重的問題。自其中一個(gè)儲(chǔ)水罐開始泄漏，放射性污水已經(jīng)進(jìn)入地面上的儲(chǔ)水坑。目前，足以注滿130多個(gè)奧林匹克比賽游泳池的水已經(jīng)被轉(zhuǎn)移，核電站已經(jīng)沒有空間。由于事件的嚴(yán)重性越來越明顯，人們擔(dān)心會(huì)出現(xiàn)新的泄漏。一些專家表示，要控制毒性最高的污水，毒性相對(duì)較低的放射性污水必須注入大海。
Egypt reopens border with Gaza Strip
埃及重新開放與加沙地帶邊境
Waiting to cross into Egypt, hundreds of Palestinians queue at the Rafah border post. The crossing is the main window to the outside world for the Gaza Strip's 1.7 million residents. Egyptian authorities re-opened the border after a four day closure that left thousands of Palestinians, including students and patients seeking medical treatment, unable to travel. This Palestinian says that if he is not allowed into Egypt soon he will have to delay his studies at university, costing him extra in fees. Hamas, an off-shoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, has ruled Gaza since 2007 and has an uneasy relationship with Egypt's new army-backed leadership which deposed President Mohamed Mursi on July 3rd. Egyptian officials have accused Hamas of aiding militants in the Sinai and say poor security conditions are to blame for often long delays at the Rafah crossing.
等待進(jìn)入埃及，數(shù)百名巴勒斯坦人排隊(duì)等候在拉法邊境處。該過境處是加沙地帶170萬居民通向外界的主要窗口。四天前，埃及當(dāng)局關(guān)閉了邊境，導(dǎo)致數(shù)千名巴勒斯坦人，包括學(xué)生和尋求醫(yī)療的病人難以通過。現(xiàn)在終于重新開放。這名巴勒斯坦人說，如果他不能進(jìn)入埃及，很快就必須延遲在大學(xué)的學(xué)習(xí)，導(dǎo)致額外費(fèi)用。穆斯林兄弟會(huì)的分支哈馬斯自2007年以來開始統(tǒng)治加沙地帶，與7月3日推翻總統(tǒng)穆爾西新成立的埃及政府關(guān)系緊張。埃及官員指控哈馬斯援助西奈半島好戰(zhàn)分子，稱拉法過境處長(zhǎng)時(shí)間延誤是由于糟糕的安全形勢(shì)。
