>Voluntary vaccinations encouraged
疫苗接種不應(yīng)該'一刀切'

China has accelerated COVID-19 vaccine rollouts among priority populations, as well as in key regions and cities, said the National Health Commission spokesman Mi Feng at a press conference, demanding resolute rectification of compulsory COVID-19 vaccination in some places.
國(guó)家衛(wèi)健委發(fā)言人米鋒近日在發(fā)布會(huì)上表示，我們目前正在對(duì)重點(diǎn)地區(qū)、重點(diǎn)人群、重點(diǎn)城市加快推進(jìn)新冠疫苗接種，但個(gè)別地方在接種工作中出現(xiàn)強(qiáng)制要求接種的情況，必須堅(jiān)決予以糾正。

China encourages voluntary COVID-19 vaccinations, and works to ensure all people eligible for vaccination have access to it, said Wu Liangyou, an official with the National Health Commission (NHC).
國(guó)家衛(wèi)健委疾控局副局長(zhǎng)吳良有表示，我們鼓勵(lì)群眾主動(dòng)接種，力爭(zhēng)實(shí)現(xiàn)"應(yīng)接盡接"。

Some provinces and regions have taken effective measures on the basis of their own situations and have accumulated experiences during the process, but there are also some places making vaccinations rigidly uniform and allowing for no flexibility.
有關(guān)省份根據(jù)當(dāng)?shù)貙?shí)際采取了各種行之有效的措施，積累了一些經(jīng)驗(yàn)。但是個(gè)別地區(qū)在新冠病毒疫苗接種工作的推動(dòng)過程中，存在"一刀切"的問題。

In response to such behavior, he said the commission will provide regions with stronger guidance on vaccine distribution.
下一步，我們將繼續(xù)加強(qiáng)對(duì)各地疫苗接種工作的指導(dǎo)。

They’ll also guide people to reasonably consider adverse reactions from vaccinations and improve their confidence in domestically manufactured vaccines.

>'Iron Man' body armor
'鋼鐵俠'戰(zhàn)甲或成為主流

Imagine wearing high-tech body armor that makes you super strong and tireless.
想象自己穿上高科技人體鎧甲，變得超級(jí)強(qiáng)大、不知疲倦。

Such technology, more specifically called an exoskeleton, sounds like the preserve of the “Iron Man” series of superhero movies.
這種技術(shù)的學(xué)名為外骨骼，聽起來就像超級(jí)英雄電影《鋼鐵俠》系列的保留項(xiàng)目。

Yet the equipment is increasingly being worn in real life around the world.
在現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中，全球各地使用這種鎧甲的人越來越多。

And one manufacturer - California's SuitX - expects it to go mainstream.
美國(guó)加州的外骨骼制造商SuitX公司期待這種產(chǎn)品會(huì)成為主流。

In simple terms, an exoskeleton is an external device that supports, covers and protects its user, giving greater levels of strength and endurance.
簡(jiǎn)而言之，外骨骼就是支撐、遮蓋和保護(hù)使用者的外部設(shè)備，為其提供更高水平的力量和耐力。

Sometimes also referred to as "wearable robots", they can be battery-powered and computer-operated, incorporating motors and hydraulics. Or they can be more simple, passive designs that use springs and dampeners.
外骨骼有時(shí)也被稱為"可穿戴機(jī)器人"，有的靠電池供電、電腦操作，包含發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)和液壓裝置，也有比較簡(jiǎn)單的運(yùn)用彈簧和減震器的被動(dòng)式設(shè)計(jì)。

Many of the early applications have been focused on military and medical applications, but in the last several years there's been an explosion of use in a range of cases.
許多早期外骨骼應(yīng)用主要集中在軍事和醫(yī)療領(lǐng)域，但是過去幾年，多個(gè)領(lǐng)域的使用量劇增。

This expansion, which has come with rapid advances in the technology, has seen exoskeletons increasingly used by manufacturing workers.
與此同時(shí)，伴隨著技術(shù)的快速發(fā)展，制造工人越來越多地使用外骨骼。

Versions for consumers are also now being developed to help people more easily do everything from DIY, to walking, climbing stairs, and other daily activities.
廠商現(xiàn)在也研發(fā)出了消費(fèi)者版外骨骼，來幫助人們更容易地從事DIY(自己動(dòng)手做)、走路、爬樓梯和其他日常活動(dòng)。

And it’s not just the beach setting. Members of a nearby residents association have brought the Roman era to life by dressing up as soldiers, and local fishermen have shown children their nets and explained where their dinner comes from.
孩子們不僅能在海灘上學(xué)到書本上的知識(shí)，老師還請(qǐng)來附近的居民裝扮成士兵，給孩子們重現(xiàn)古羅馬時(shí)代的場(chǎng)景。當(dāng)?shù)貪O民也會(huì)被請(qǐng)來向孩子們展示漁具，并演示如何捕魚。
