China will advance the construction of 150 new major water conservancy projects.The projects are expected to increase the storage capacity for flood control by 9 billion cubic meters and the annual water supply capacity by 42 billion cubic meters, said Su Wei, an official with the NDRC at a briefing.
國家發(fā)展改革委副秘書長蘇偉表示，我國抓緊推進(jìn)建設(shè)150項(xiàng)重大水利工程建設(shè)。工程實(shí)施后，預(yù)計(jì)可新增防洪庫容約90億立方米，增加年供水能力約420億立方米。

這150項(xiàng)重大水利工程（major water conservancy projects）主要包括防洪減災(zāi)（flood control and disaster relief）、水資源優(yōu)化配置（optimized allocation of water resources）、灌溉節(jié)水和供水（irrigation and water supply）、水生態(tài)保護(hù)修復(fù)（water ecological protection and restoration）、智慧水利（smart water conservancy）等5大類。

今年的《政府工作報(bào)告》提出：重點(diǎn)支持既促消費(fèi)惠民生又調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)增后勁的“兩新一重（新型基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、新型城鎮(zhèn)化和重大工程，new infrastructure and new urbanization initiatives and major projects）”建設(shè)。

主要是：

加強(qiáng)新型基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)，發(fā)展新一代信息網(wǎng)絡(luò)，拓展5G應(yīng)用，建設(shè)數(shù)據(jù)中心，增加充電樁、換電站等設(shè)施，推廣新能源汽車，激發(fā)新消費(fèi)需求、助力產(chǎn)業(yè)升級(jí)。
First, we will step up the construction of new types of infrastructure. We will develop next-generation information networks, expand 5G applications, and develop data centers. We will build more battery charging and swapping facilities and promote wider use of new-energy automobiles. We will stimulate new consumer demand and promote industrial upgrading.

加強(qiáng)新型城鎮(zhèn)化建設(shè)，大力提升縣城公共設(shè)施和服務(wù)能力，以適應(yīng)農(nóng)民日益增加的到縣城就業(yè)安家需求。新開工改造城鎮(zhèn)老舊小區(qū)3.9萬個(gè)，支持管網(wǎng)改造、加裝電梯等，發(fā)展居家養(yǎng)老、用餐、保潔等多樣社區(qū)服務(wù)。
Second, we will strengthen the development of a new type of urbanization. We will do more to improve public facilities and services in county seats, so as to meet the growing demand to work and settle in them among rural residents. We will begin the renovation of 39,000 old urban residential communities and support the upgrading of plumbing and wiring and the installation of elevators in old residential buildings; we will encourage the development of community services such as elderly home care, the provision of meals, and cleaning services.

加強(qiáng)交通、水利等重大工程建設(shè)。增加國家鐵路建設(shè)資本金1000億元。健全市場化投融資機(jī)制，支持民營企業(yè)平等參與。要優(yōu)選項(xiàng)目，不留后遺癥，讓投資持續(xù)發(fā)揮效益。
Third, we will redouble efforts to develop major transportation and water conservancy projects, and increase national railway development capital by 100 billion yuan. We will improve market-based investment and financing mechanisms to support private enterprises in participating in projects on an equal footing. We will ensure that projects are up to standard, so they do not create any undesired consequences and the investments made deliver long-term returns.

重大水利工程是“兩新一重”建設(shè)的重要內(nèi)容。

The total investment in the projects is estimated to reach 1.29 trillion yuan ($184.38 billion), which is expected to drive investment of about 6.6 trillion yuan and offer about 800,000 job positions annually on average, Su said.
蘇偉表示，150項(xiàng)工程匡算總投資大致是1.29萬億元，能夠帶動(dòng)投資6.6萬億元，年均新增就業(yè)崗位80萬個(gè)。

跨省區(qū)市團(tuán)隊(duì)旅游 group tours that cross provincial borders

Travel agencies in China have been given permission to resume group tours that cross provincial borders, following a period of suspension due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism said in the circular. However, group tours in those areas with middle and high COVID-19 risk levels and overseas group tours are still not allowed, said the circular.
文化和旅游部發(fā)布的通知指出，各地可恢復(fù)旅行社經(jīng)營跨省（區(qū)、市）團(tuán)隊(duì)旅游，中、高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)地區(qū)不得開展團(tuán)隊(duì)旅游。出入境旅游業(yè)務(wù)暫不恢復(fù)。受新冠肺炎疫情影響，跨?。▍^(qū)、市）團(tuán)隊(duì)旅游一度暫停。

【單詞講解】

說到“暫?！保覀兛赡芰⒓磿?huì)想到pause這個(gè)詞，不過，在具體使用的時(shí)候，pause更偏重“短時(shí)間暫停（后繼續(xù)進(jìn)行某事）”的意思，比如：He talked for two hours without pausing for breath.（他說了兩個(gè)小時(shí)的話，都沒有停下來喘口氣。）On leaving, she paused for a moment at the door.（離開的時(shí)候，她在門口停頓了一下。）而上文中的suspension及其動(dòng)詞形式suspend多指“把事情停下來一陣子（直到有后續(xù)的決策）”，比如：Tour groups were suspended because of the epidemic.（由于疫情原因，團(tuán)隊(duì)游被暫時(shí)叫停了。）這里的“暫停”一般會(huì)持續(xù)一段時(shí)間，直到形勢變化允許這件事能繼續(xù)進(jìn)行。

The limit on the number of visitors allowed in tourist attractions will be set at 50 percent of the maximum capacity, according to the circular, an increase on the previous limit of 30 percent.
各地旅游景區(qū)接待游客量由不得超過最大承載量的30%調(diào)至50%。

With strict epidemic prevention and control measures in place, indoor areas at scenic spots can open to the public through appointments and with restrictions on visitor numbers.
在嚴(yán)格落實(shí)各項(xiàng)防控措施的前提下，采取預(yù)約、限流等方式，開放旅游景區(qū)室內(nèi)場所。

The circular also required travel agencies to provide sufficient protective materials, including masks, body-temperature testing equipment, and disposable gloves, for drivers, tour guides and tourists.
通知還要求旅行社為司機(jī)、導(dǎo)游和游客提供口罩、測溫設(shè)備以及一次性手套等防護(hù)裝備。

Tourists should show their health QR codes to travel agencies when signing up for group tours, and have the codes checked again before starting their travels, according to the circular, stressing that tourists with abnormal temperatures are not allowed to join tours.
游客報(bào)團(tuán)時(shí)需向旅行社出示健康碼，行程開始時(shí)需再次查驗(yàn)健康碼，通知強(qiáng)調(diào)，體溫異常的游客不允許參團(tuán)。
