阅读 :

  12月7日18时,北京首次发布空气重污染红色预警(red alert for heavy air pollution),启动了空气污染应急制度中等级最高的措施。

  This is the first time Beijing has issued a red alert for smog since 2013 when Beijing adopted an emergency response program for air pollution.

  这是北京自2013年开始实施空气污染应急制度以来首次发布雾霾红色预警。

  ▌主要应急措施包括:

  ►suspend classes in all elementary and middle schools, kindergartens and extracurricular training schools;

  所有的中小学、幼儿园、少年宫及校外教育机构停课;

  ►cars are allowed on the roads on alternating days depending on the odd or even numbers of their license plates;

  机动车将依据汽车尾号实施单双号限行;

  ►outdoor operations of construction sites are banned and some industrial plants are required to limit or stop production.

  工地停止室外施工作业,同时一些工业企业也要按要求采取限产或停产措施。

  ▌怎样才能启动红色预警?

  ►Four-tier alerts - blue, yellow, orange and red - will be issued on "heavy pollution" days. Red alert, the highest, will be issued for heavy pollution that is expected to last more than three days.

  在空气重污染情况下将会发出预警,霾的预警级别由低到高分别为蓝色、黄色、橙色和红色四个等级。其中红色是最高级别,当重度空气污染持续三天以上将会发布红色预警。

  ▌等风来

  北京市环境监测中心(Beijing Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center)表示,这次空气重污染将一直持续到周四(linger until Thursday)。在周四下午开始一股较强冷空气(cold front )的到来,将使雾霾消散( to disperse)。

  雾霾再严重,也阻挡不了我们顽强学习英语的决心!而且听说雾霾天学点跟雾霾环保有关的英语更配哦!

  如何描述雾霾

  ➤➤➤➤先来学一些关键动词

  ▌blanket(笼罩)

  Much of northern China has been blanketed in thick smog after Beijing issued its highest air pollution alert of the winter in the capital.

  北京发布了今冬最严重的空气污染预警后,华北大部分都笼罩在浓浓雾霾中。

  ▌engulf (吞噬、使陷入)

  Beijing was again engulfed in heavy smog on Tuesday, sending air pollution readings soaring.

  北京周二又深陷严重雾霾之中,空气污染指数飙升。

  Air pollution in Beijing reached hazardous levels on Saturday as smog engulfed large parts of China despite efforts to clean up the foul air.

  尽管中国在努力清洁污浊的空气,但在周六,雾霾仍吞噬了中国大部分地区,北京的空气污染在周六达到严重有害程度。

  ▌shroud (覆盖)

  Since Tuesday, the city had been shrouded in grey smog, reducing visibilities to a few hundred metres.

  史上最严重的雾霾包围了中国东北部,居民都戴上了防毒面具,或把自己关在家里。

  ➤➤➤➤怎样用英语吐槽雾霾

  “相比于冀霾的激烈、沪霾的湿热、粤霾的阴冷,我更喜欢京霾的醇厚、真实和具体”……中文含蓄又尖锐的嘲讽,换成英文,就变成直截了当的吐槽。

  ►The smog is severe!

  ►When the pollution gets really serious, I can't even see the buildings next to me.

  雾霾太严重了,附近的建筑都看不清了。

  ▌mist

  薄雾,多指晨间的白雾。
