>Global tourism faces 80% slump
全球游客數(shù)或銳減八成

The number of international tourist arrivals will drop by 60-80% in 2020 due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, the World Tourism Organization said.
世界旅游組織表示，受新冠肺炎疫情影響，今年國際游客人數(shù)將減少六至八成。

Widespread travel restrictions and the closure of airports and national borders to curb the spread of the virus had plunged international tourism into its worst crisis since records began in 1950, the UN tourism body said in a statement.
該聯(lián)合國旅游機構(gòu)在一份聲明中稱，為遏制病毒傳播，多國實施旅行限制、關(guān)閉機場和邊境等措施，使全球旅游業(yè)陷入自上世紀(jì)五十年代有記錄以來的最大危機。

Tourist arrivals dropped by 22% in the first quarter of the year, and by 57% in March alone, with Asia and Europe suffering the biggest declines.
今年一季度全球旅游人數(shù)下降22%，僅3月一個月就下降了57%，其中亞洲和歐洲的游客規(guī)模減少幅度最大。

"The world is facing an unprecedented health and economic crisis. Tourism has been hit hard, with millions of jobs at risk in one of the most labor-intensive sectors of the economy," said Zurab Pololikashvili, secretary-general of the tourism body.
世界旅游組織秘書長祖拉布·波洛利卡什維利表示，全球正面臨一場史無前例的健康和經(jīng)濟危機，作為勞動密集程度最高的產(chǎn)業(yè)之一的旅游業(yè)已遭受重創(chuàng)，數(shù)以百萬計的工作崗位岌岌可危。

>West Wing staff to wear masks
白宮人員被要求戴口罩

The White House has directed staff working in the West Wing, where the daily operations of US President Donald Trump's administration are carried out, to wear masks at all times in the building, except when they are at their own desks, a senior administration official confirmed on Monday.
美國政府一名高級行政官員11日證實，白宮已指示所有在西翼工作的員工全程佩戴口罩，坐在自己辦公桌前的時候除外。白宮西翼是美國總統(tǒng)特朗普及其政府團隊日常辦公的區(qū)域。

With Trump's valet and Vice President Mike Pence's press secretary both testing positive for the novel coronavirus last week, pressure is growing for the White House to take further steps in protecting the health of country's 73-year-old president.
上周，特朗普身邊的一名貼身員工和副總統(tǒng)彭斯的新聞秘書都被檢測出感染了新冠病毒，白宮面臨的防控壓力增大，必須為保護73歲的特朗普的健康而采取進一步舉措。

Trump has been resistant to wearing a mask himself and has not put one on in public, though he said he tried some on backstage during a visit to a mask factory in Arizona last week.
特朗普本人對于佩戴口罩很抵觸，盡管他說自己上周在參觀亞利桑那州一個口罩工廠時在后臺試戴了一些口罩，但從未在公開場合佩戴過口罩。
