天問一號 Tianwen-1

4月24日，國家航天局在2020年中國航天日線上啟動儀式上公布：中國行星探測任務（planetary exploration missions）被命名為“天問（Tianwen）系列”，首次火星探測任務（first Mars exploration mission）被命名為“天問一號”，后續(xù)行星任務依次編號。

國家航天局總工程師葛小春介紹，

The name comes from the long poem "Tianwen," meaning Heavenly Questions or Questions to Heaven, written by Qu Yuan (about 340-278 BC), one of the greatest poets of ancient China.
“天問”來自中國偉大詩人屈原的長詩《天問》。

In "Tianwen," Qu Yuan raised a series of questions in verse involving the sky, stars, natural phenomena, myths and the real world, showing his doubts about some traditional concepts and the spirit of seeking the truth.
《天問》是屈原對于天空、星辰、自然現(xiàn)象、神話和人世等一切事物現(xiàn)象的發(fā)問，體現(xiàn)了他對傳統(tǒng)理念的疑惑以及追求真理的精神。

“天問”這個名字表達了中華民族對于真理追求的堅韌與執(zhí)著（the Chinese nation's perseverance in pursuing truth），體現(xiàn)了對自然和宇宙空間探索的文化傳承（culture of exploring nature and the universe）。

國家航天局同時公布了首次火星探測任務標識“攬星九天”。

CNSA also unveiled the logo of China's planetary exploration missions, featuring the letter C, signifying China, international cooperation and capacity of entering space.
國家航天局公布的我國行星探測任務標識展示了字母“C”的形象，匯集了中國（China）、國際合作精神（Cooperation）、進入太空的能力等多重含義。

China plans to launch the Mars probe in 2020, aiming to complete orbiting, landing and roving in one mission.
我國計劃在2020年發(fā)射火星探測器，并在一次任務內完成軌道運行、著陸、巡視的任務。

移動互聯(lián)網接入流量 mobile data traffic

在國務院聯(lián)防聯(lián)控機制4月25日舉辦的新聞發(fā)布會上，工業(yè)與信息化部信息技術發(fā)展司一級巡視員李穎透露，今年3月戶均移動互聯(lián)網接入流量達到近12月以來的最高點。

In the first quarter of 2020, China's mobile data traffic consumption soared 39.3 percent from the same period of last year, Li told the press conference. In March alone, the average household usage of mobile traffic reached 9.5 GB, the highest level in almost a year, reflecting the rapid growth of information consumption, Li added.
李穎在發(fā)布會上表示，今年一季度，我國移動互聯(lián)網接入流量同比增長39.3%。今年3月戶均移動互聯(lián)網接入流量達到9.5GB，為近12月以來的最高點，反映了信息消費的高增長態(tài)勢。

【單詞講解】

Traffic這個詞可做名詞或動詞使用，用法很多，不過大多數都跟人員、物品、信息、交通工具等的運送、流動有關，比如：上班路上遭遇“堵車”可以直接說I am stuck in traffic，飯店的客流量可以說restaurant traffic，法律打擊的“毒品交易”則是drug traffic。在信息技術領域，traffic指的是：the information or signals transmitted over a communications system（通過一個通信系統(tǒng)傳輸的信息或信號），我們一般稱為“流量”。

During the epidemic period, consumer demand for online medical and education services, as well as food delivery and new retail services, posted explosive growth.
疫情期間，消費者對于在線就醫(yī)和教育服務，以及食品快遞和新零售服務的需求呈爆發(fā)性增長。

The internet traffic in Wuhan, in central China's Hubei province, during the epidemic period has seen an increase of around 60 to 70 percent compared with that at the end of last year, said statistics from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT).
工信部的數據顯示，疫情期間湖北省武漢市的互聯(lián)網流量比去年年底增長了60-70%。

During the epidemic period, the broadband network plays key supporting roles in social economic operations, and people's production and life. Meanwhile, the internet also faces great challenges from users' growing operating frequency and demands.
疫情期間，寬帶網絡在社會經濟運行及人民生產生活中發(fā)揮了重要的支持作用。與此同時，互聯(lián)網也面臨用戶不斷增長的使用頻率和需求的巨大挑戰(zhàn)。

互聯(lián)網領域跨越式發(fā)展使居家辦公、學習、消費成為可能

工信部數據顯示，我國固定寬帶用戶超過4.5億，固定網絡家庭普及率超過91%。
