5A级景区 5A-level scenic areas

The Ministry of Culture and Tourism conducted a review and inspection of select 5A-level scenic areas to check their resource conservation, tourist facilities and sanitation and safety management, among other services, the ministry said Wednesday.文化和旅游部近期组织第三方专业检查员对部分5A级旅游景区的资源保护、游览设施、环境卫生、安全管理及其他服务方面情况进行了复核检查。

【知识点】

我国旅游景区质量等级(quality rating of scenic areas)划分为五级,从高到低依次为AAAAA、AAAA、AAA、AA、A级旅游景区。旅游景区质量等级的标牌、证书由全国旅游景区质量等级评定机构统一规定。

景区评定等级需要满足的条件包括三个细则,细则一为服务质量与环境质量(quality of service and environment),共分为旅游交通(transport)、游览(tour)、旅游安全(travel safety)、卫生(sanitation)、邮电服务(postal service)、旅游购物(shopping)、综合管理以及资源和环境的保护(resource and environment conservation)8个大项;细则二为景观质量,分为资源要素价值与景观市场价值两大评价项目;细则三为游客意见(tourists feedback),以游客对该旅游景区的综合满意度为依据。

According to the inspection results, Qiaojia Dayuan, a tourist site featuring an ancient and traditional folk house in the city of Jinzhong, North China's Shanxi province, was removed from the 5A-level list.根据检查结果,文化和旅游部决定,对山西省晋中市乔家大院景区予以取消5A质量等级处理。

The ministry also named and shamed another six 5A-level tourism spots, and urged them to rectify their problems within three months.文化和旅游部还对6家5A级旅游景区予以通报批评处理,限期3个月整改。

【词汇讲解】

Name and shame是英语里常用的一个固定搭配,这个短语的意思是:to reveal the identity of a person or organization guilty of illegal or unacceptable behavior in order to embarrass them into not repeating the offence,即“将实施了违法违规行为的个人或组织的身份公布出来,让他们难堪,以防止今后再犯”,用中文里的“通报批评”对应很合适。另外,曾经在电视剧里出现过的“游街示众”则可以用shame parade来表示。

这6家被通报批评的景区为:辽宁省沈阳市沈阳植物园景区、浙江省温州市雁荡山景区、河南省焦作市云台山景区、广东省梅州市雁南飞茶田景区、四川省乐山市峨眉山景区和云南省昆明市石林景区。

规模裁员和失业风险预警机制 early warning mechanism for large-scale layoffs and unemployment risks

China has unveiled measures to stabilize the job market, with steps to establish an early warning mechanism for large-scale layoffs and unemployment risks amid mounting downward pressure on the economy.

在经济面临下行压力的当下,中国政府推出了稳定就业市场的举措,逐步建立规模裁员和失业风险预警机制。

More than 7.37 million urban jobs were created in the first half of the year-two-thirds of the annual target-according to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.

来自人力资源社会保障部的相关数据显示,上半年全国城镇新增就业737万人,完成全年目标任务的三分之二(67%)。

此次国务院常务会议就下一步就业工作提出了工作要点,如采取更有力措施稳增长(stabilize growth)、助创业(promote entrepreneurship)。

It also called for stronger efforts to break barriers hindering the development of market entities and to create more jobs. Employment in labor-intensive sectors must be closely monitored, and an early warning mechanism for large-scale layoffs and unemployment risks will be established.

此次会议还提出,要破除束缚市场主体发展的桎梏,拓展就业岗位。同时,严密关注劳动密集型企业等就业情况,建立规模裁员和失业风险预警机制。

6月份,全国城镇调查失业率(surveyed unemployment rate)为5.1%。二季度末,全国城镇登记失业率(registered urban unemployment rate)为3.61%。

外籍教师 foreign teachers

8月5日,广东省教育厅发布《关于进一步加强外籍教师管理工作的通知》,要求各地市教育局进一步加强对教育部门审批的培训机构聘用外籍教师的监督管理。

The notice was issued after the department received a growing number of complaints from parents that some foreign teachers in some training agencies were not qualified, and a few of them were tourists.

该《通知》发布之前,教育厅收到越来越多家长的投诉,称一些培训机构的外籍教师不合格,甚至有一些是游客身份。

退档考生 rejected students

Peking University is supposed to enroll eight impoverished students from Henan province this year. However, the university decided not to enroll the students in the seventh and eighth places because their grades, 542 and 536, respectively, were much lower than the other six students, with the student in sixth place scoring 667 in the college entrance exam. 北京大学2019年计划在河南省贫困地区专项招生8人。但是,第7名考生考分为542分,第8名考生考分为536分,远低于第6名考生的667分,因此,北京大学决定对第7名、第8名考生予以退档。

2019年8月新闻热词汇总

The university said it decided not to enroll the two students because "it would be hard for them to complete their studies as their grades were considerably lower than their peers".

北大表示,对这两名考生做退档处理是因为“他们的分数明显低于其他同学,入校后极有可能完不成学业”。

The university decided to replace the two students, who put Peking University as their first preference in the gaokao application, with other two students who put it as their second preference, but with much higher grades, both achieving 671.对这两名第一志愿考生退档后,北京大学录取了两名第二志愿考生,分数均为671分。

对于此次舆论关注的考生“退档”问题,北大招生委员会专门召开专题会议。

The university admitted malpractice in student enrollment in the national college entrance exam, or gaokao, on Sunday and decided to re-enroll two students it previously dropped because their grades were considerably lower than others, it said in a statement.

北大承认在高考录取过程中存在不合规之处,并在8月11日发布声明决定补录因分数过低而被退档的两位考生。

【知识点】

为了缩小城乡教育差距(narrow the gap between urban and rural schools),促进教育公平,我国教育部在高考录取中实施三个专项计划,分别为:国家专项计划、地方专项计划和高校专项计划。

国家专项计划(National Special Program)定向招收贫困地区学生(students in poverty-stricken areas)。招生学校为中央部门所属高校和各省(区、市)所属重点高校,实施区域为集中连片特殊困难县、国家级扶贫开发重点县以及新疆南疆四地州。

地方专项计划(Local Special Program)定向招收各省(区、市)实施区域的农村学生。招生学校为各省(区、市)所属重点高校,具体实施区域、报考条件由各省(区、市)根据本地实际情况确定,实施区域要对本省(区、市)民族自治县实现全覆盖。

高校专项计划(Special Program for Colleges and Universities)定向招收边远、贫困、民族等地区(remote, impoverished and ethnic regions)县(含县级市)以下高中勤奋好学、成绩优良的农村学生。招生学校为教育部直属高校和其他自主招生试点高校,具体实施区域由有关省(区、市)确定。

According to the Ministry of Education, a total of 370,000 students from impoverished regions were admitted by China's 140 top universities, and 103,800 students were admitted to these universities in 2018.教育部的信息显示,共有37万名来自贫困地区的考生通过专项计划被我国140所高校录取,其中2018年录取的考生为10.38万人。

禁带食品入园政策 no-outside-food-and-drink policy

近日,“上海迪士尼禁止自带饮食被告”的话题登上微博热搜。

The suit was brought by a junior, surnamed Wang, from East China University of Political Science and Law after she was told by park security to either throw away the snacks she had brought in her backpack or finish them. In order to get into the park, she finished some snacks and discarded the rest, following a series of failed attempts to resist, including oral disputes with security and phone calls to the police and to the municipal's official complaint hotlines, according to thePaper.cn.据澎湃新闻报道,这起诉讼由华东政法大学一名大三学生小王发起。她在进入园区之前被保安告知,需将背包中携带的零食丢弃或吃掉。她与工作人员据理力争,后来拨打电话报警,并现场拨投诉热线进行投诉均未果之后,她吃掉一部分零食并丢弃一部分后,得以进入园区。

2019年8月新闻热词汇总

小王认为迪士尼乐园制定的规则侵犯了自身合法权益,提起诉讼,向法院提出了两点诉讼请求: 一、确认上海迪士尼乐园禁止游客携带食品入园的格式条款无效(overturn the no-outside-food-and-drink policy);二、要求上海迪士尼乐园赔偿原告损失(compensate her loss),包括原告在迪士尼乐园外购买却因被告不合理规则而被迫丢弃的食品费用,共计46.3元。

最终,浦东法院以“服务合同纠纷(service contract dispute)”为案由立案。4月23日,该案第一次开庭审理。

小王及其同学小杨、小张、小魏向记者表示,“之前最高院表示过餐饮行业禁止自带酒水食物是霸王条款(imparity clause),实践中也有法院判决过电影院禁止自带食物的条款无效,我们认为迪士尼的规定与之相似,侵犯了消费者的权益(infringe consumer rights and interests)。很多人可能也感到自己的权益受到了侵犯,但是由于时间成本等问题而没有去起诉,而我们作为法学生,‘较劲’是我们的‘天职’。”上海迪士尼乐园的管理方上海迪士尼度假区11日回应称,上海迪士尼乐园关于外带食品与饮料入园的规定与中国的大部分主题乐园一致( the "no outside food and beverage" rule is consistent with many other theme parks across China)。若游客自己携带食品或饮料,欢迎游客在乐园外的休息区域享用(guests are welcome to enjoy their own food and beverages outside the park)。

2017年11月15日,上海迪士尼乐园在乐园须知一栏新增规定,“食品(food);酒精饮料(alcoholic beverages);超过 600 毫升的非酒精饮料(nonalcoholic beverages over 600 milliliters)。建议游客在入园前享用完携带的上述食品及非酒精饮料。”

Globally, three out of the six Disneyland parks are open to food and drinks from beyond its services, while the three in Asia - Tokyo, Hong Kong and Shanghai - carry a no-outside-food-and-drink policy.在全球六家迪士尼乐园中,有三家对外带食品饮料没有限制,而东京、香港和上海三家位于亚洲的迪士尼乐园均执行禁止携带食品饮料入园的规定。

在巴黎迪士尼、佛罗里达迪士尼以及加州迪士尼官网的乐园须知中,禁止游客带入园区的物品中与食物相关的只有酒精饮料。

至于为何“禁带食物”,上海迪士尼方面答辩称,消费者可能会携带气味特殊或有安全隐患的食品入园,并且随意丢弃垃圾,不让外带食物是“基于维护园内公共卫生安全而必须订立的规则”。

但网友们并不买帐,认为这一理由没有说服力,指责园区这么做的目的是强迫游客购买园内食物。

Although Shanghai Disney claims the food ban is due to hygiene reasons, that did not stop Chinese net users from speculating that Disney is applying double standards in Asia and forcing tourists to buy their food. 尽管上海迪士尼宣称订立此规则是出于卫生原因,此举还是引发了网友的热议,人们不禁怀疑迪士尼是否针对亚洲存在“双标”行为,且强迫游客购买园内食物。

Some argue that the food and beverages supplied within the park are overpriced, making the motivation behind the policy appear dubious.有网友认为园区内提供的食物饮料标价过高,其禁带饮食规则背后的动机值得怀疑。

中国人民大学法学院教授刘俊海接受环球时报采访时表示,迪士尼向亚洲国家采取“双标”行为十分不妥。

"Disney has infringed on tourists' right of choice. As a US company, it is improper to apply a double standard on Asian countries," Liu Junhai, a business law professor at Renmin University of China in Beijing told the Global Times on Sunday.

中国人民大学法学院商法教授刘俊海11日接受《环球时报》采访时表示,迪士尼方面侵犯了消费者的选择权,作为一家美国公司,迪士尼向亚洲国家采取“双标”行为十分不妥。

人造肉 lab-grown meat

Mooncakes filled with lab-grown meat will go on sale in China for the first time in September.今年9月,“人造肉”馅儿的月饼将在我国首次上市销售。

【名词解释】

人造肉,在英语里的叫法有lab-grown meat,cultured meat、slaughter-free meat以及clean meat等,从名字可以看出,这种肉并不是通过大规模饲养动物并宰杀来获取肉类产品,而是在实验室里利用植物蛋白(vegetable protein)或动物干细胞(animal stem cells)制造出的肉。

2019年8月新闻热词汇总

下月即将上市的“人造肉”月饼里的肉馅儿就是用植物蛋白制成的。

中国肉类研究中心副总工程师臧明伍介绍,用植物蛋白做“人造肉”是目前国际上相对普遍的方法之一:“它的来源就是植物蛋白,但是有一点不一样,就是从植物中提取了一些血红蛋白(hemoglobin),让口味和外观看起来比较接近真肉(to make it taste and look like real meat)。”

Researchers have been working to reduce the unpleasant smell of vegetable protein and make the vegan product taste like real meat, said Li Jian, an associate professor at the School of Food and Chemical Engineering at Beijing Technology and Business University, who is leading the team making the meat substitute.带领“人造肉”实验团队的北京工商大学食品与健康学院副教授李健表示,研究人员一直在研究去除植物蛋白的异味问题,使植物人造肉味道更接近真肉。

植物肉初创品牌创始人吕中茗介绍,今年推出的第一款产品就是仿老上海鲜肉月饼的植物“人造肉”月饼(mooncakes stuffed with lab-grown meat),并表示,“让老上海人拿我们的产品跟真正的鲜肉月饼对比,很多人都分不清楚。”

李健在接受记者采访时表示,“人造肉”面临的最大挑战是怎样研发出适合中国人口味的人造肉食品(lab-grown meat that caters to Chinese taste),首先要实现的是饺子、肉丸等碎肉产品,继而研制出完全模拟牛排、排骨、红烧肉等人造肉产品。

《上海堡垒》 Shanghai Fortress

自称花了5年时间筹备、斥资3.6亿的《上海堡垒》(Shanghai Fortress)自8月9日上映以来票房口碑双双溃败。目前,该片在豆瓣的评分已经降至3.2分。

2019年8月新闻热词汇总

Shanghai Fortress, which has seen its score falling to 3.2 points out of ten on the reviewing site Douban, has been criticized fiercely online.《上海堡垒》被网友批得体无完肤。豆瓣评分一路下跌,目前仅3.2分。

8月10日,该片导演滕华涛道歉,称“谢谢所有观众的批评”。

It doesn’t just show dissatisfaction with the film,” Teng wrote. “It also shows a loss of hope in Chinese sci-fi. As the director, I’m inescapably responsible for this, and I’m truly sorry.”滕华涛写道:这不仅仅是对电影不满意,也是对中国科幻电影的期待落空了。作为导演,我有着不可推卸的责任,真的很抱歉。”

当天下午,《上海堡垒》的原著作者江南致歉称“辜负了你的等待”。

A similar statement on Sina Weibo came from novelist, and the film's scriptwriter, Yang Zhi, better known by his pseudonym Jiang Nan: "To those who don't like the film, I am sorry that it didn't live up to your expectations."江南在微博中写道:“致歉于那些不喜欢电影的朋友,辜负了你的等待。”

记得年初,《流浪地球》(The Wandering Earth)势如破竹的时候,中国电影人都很兴奋。“中国科幻元年”终于到来的呼声不绝于耳。

《流浪地球》在春节档以黑马姿态呼啸而出成为爆款,有着不少先天优势。而这些《上海堡垒》并不具备。

Here are the elements that paved a solid ground for the soaring success of The Wandering Earth: Director Guo Fan is a diehard sci-fi fan; the script was adapted from top sci-fi novelist Liu Cixin's eponymous work and its lead star, Wu Jing, is a box office draw who mostly plays tough guys on screen, matching the persona of the astronaut who sacrifices his life to save the Earth in the movie. 《流浪地球》的“原生”优势在于:导演郭帆是铁杆科幻迷;剧本有着“中国当代科幻第一人”刘慈欣的原著托底;主演吴京自《战狼2》后,堪称“票房吉祥物”,而且他的银幕硬汉形象,也和片中殉道式牺牲的宇航员契合。

But The Wandering Earth has become a game changer, making people highly anticipate Shanghai Fortress, which was produced almost in the same time period as The Wandering Earth. And, the creators behind Shanghai Fortress had worked hard.《上海堡垒》从选角到拍摄,其实和《流浪地球》差不多同时期。这部在网上口碑饱受争议的影片据说也是努力过的。

导演滕华涛是一位以都市爱情片成名的导演,《上海堡垒》是他走出自己舒适区的尝试,但显然他的功力还不够。

He spent six years on the production, with one-and-a-half years on special effects. Teng once said that he believed shooting big-budget films with a lot of visual effects will be the mainstream in the future, so he wanted to be on board. However, he is obviously incompetent.他用了六年制作,一年半花在特效上。他曾经表示,视觉特效丰富的大成本影片未来有可能成为全球电影市场的“主流”,他希望自己也能成为这股“洪流”的一部分。然而,他显然功力不够。

《上海堡垒》的问题,还在于根上。

原著的故事设定于2009年,外星人要大举进攻地球,上海是人类唯一的希望,而这只是营造一个乱世的背景。

In the original story, the protagonist, Jiang Yang, who is played by Lu, and Lin Lan, played by Shu, are respectively 22 and 23 years old. This age gap makes it easier to shape a convincing romance. But Lu is 14 years younger than Shu, and both fail to create appealing chemistry on the big screen.原著中,男女主人公江洋和林澜的年龄设定,分别是22岁和23岁。这样的年龄差,是可以让人信服他们之间的朦胧爱意。但差了14岁的鹿晗和舒淇,却无论如何撑不起这样的银幕CP感。

至于特效,滕导或许是尽力了,但效果还是有些平淡无奇。

Considering there have already been so many excellent Hollywood films depicting alien creatures, it's easy to understand why Chinese audiences are not satisfied with the look of the hunters from the Delta civilization in Shanghai Fortress.在内地观众被好莱坞科幻大片熏陶了这么多年之后,什么样的外星怪物没见过。《上海堡垒》中“德尔达文明”捕食者们的造型和作战方式,还真是有点平平无奇。

科幻片可以这样拍么?不是不可以。但《上海堡垒》却没能用科幻的概念,撑起一个乱世中难以保全的爱情。

Actually, there are two main subgenres of sci-fi productions, respectively dubbed soft sci-fi and hard sci-fi. A love story can shape a wonderful sci-fi story, such as The Time Traveler's Wife, but the storyline in Shanghai Fortress — which was supposed to be a heartbreaking romance amid turbulence — is told in a poorly made narrative, failing to touch the audience.本来,科幻就分“软科幻”和“硬科幻”两种。《时间旅行者的妻子》就是一个软科幻爱情故事,令人唏嘘不已。但《上海堡垒》却没能用科幻的概念,撑起一个乱世中难以保全的爱情。

上海方言早教 nursery schools using Shanghai dialect

A number of nursery schools using Shanghai dialect as their standard instructional language have emerged, becoming a new option for many Shanghai parents.最近出现了一些以上海方言为教学语言的早教机构,成为很多上海父母的新选择。

2019年8月新闻热词汇总

“Many parents are beginning to realize their children are not the only ones that cannot speak Shanghai dialect,” said principal of a dialect-oriented nursery.一家沪语早教中心的园长表示,很多家长开始意识到,不会讲上海方言的并不只有自家孩子。

对于给孩子选择纯沪语早教,上海本地的家长表示不希望看到会讲家乡话的人越来越少。

Qian Jing is one parent who sends her child to one such nursery. Born and raised in Shanghai, she insisted children should speak their own dialect.钱静(音译)是土生土长的上海人,她选择把孩子送去沪语早教机构,她认为孩子们应该会说自己家乡的方言。

According to Qian, her son feels very comfortable at the center because teachers all speak the dialect. “As a local Shanghai resident, the last thing I want is to see people in Shanghai no longer speaking the dialect,” she added.她表示,自己的儿子在早教中心很适应,因为那里的老师都说方言。她说:“作为一个土生土长的上海人,我最不想看到的就是上海人不说上海话了。”

而外来的“新上海人”则认为,会讲上海话会增加归属感。

Zhang Yi, who was not a native but later moved to Shanghai, said the exact reason she sent her daughter here is because it uses Shanghai dialect as the language of instruction.张逸(音译)是移居上海的外地人,她说她选择让女儿去这个早教机构的原因恰恰就是因为他们提供纯沪语教学。

For Zhang, learning the dialect can also heighten a sense of belonging. “When you get familiar with the dialect, you will feel more involved as part of the city,” she said.对她来说,学习上海话同时还能增加归属感。“你熟悉了这个语言后就会觉得跟这个城市更加亲近了。”

校闹 acts that disrupt school order

为贯彻落实全国教育大会精神,依法治理“校闹”,教育部、最高人民法院、最高人民检察院、公安部、司法部联合印发《关于完善安全事故处理机制 维护学校教育教学秩序的意见》(以下简称《意见》),构建了治理“校闹”的制度体系,保障学校安心办学。

Acts that disrupt school order have put undue pressure on schools which might thereafter refrain from normal physical education, extra-curricular activities, and scolding students. This has affected quality education and the education environment, and must be resolved with greater efforts.因为“校闹”的存在,学校承担了不应当承担的责任和压力,导致一些学校不敢正常开展体育教学、课外活动,不敢正常批评教育学生,干扰了素质教育的实施,影响了良好教育生态的形成,必须下大力气予以解决。

《意见》明确了8类“校闹”行为:

(1)殴打他人(assaulting people)、故意伤害他人或者故意损毁公私财物的(intentionally hurting someone or damaging public or private properties);

(2)侵占、毁损学校房屋、设施设备的(damaging or occupying school facilities);

(3)在学校设置障碍(setting up barricades on campus)、贴报喷字(putting up defamatory posters)、拉挂横幅(putting up banners)、燃放鞭炮(setting off firecrackers)、播放哀乐(playing funeral music)、摆放花圈(laying wreath)、泼洒污物(pouring sewage)、断水断电(cutting electricity and water supplies)、堵塞大门、围堵办公场所和道路的(blocking school gates and buildings);

(4)在学校等公共场所停放尸体的(placing corpse on campus or at public places);

(5)以不准离开工作场所等方式非法限制学校教职工、学生人身自由的(illegally restricting personal freedom of teachers and students);

(6)跟踪、纠缠学校相关负责人(stalking school officials),侮辱、恐吓教职工、学生的(intimidating and insulting students and teachers);

(7)携带易燃易爆危险物品和管制器具进入学校的(bringing hazardous materials or tools to school);

(8)其他扰乱学校教育教学秩序或侵害他人人身财产权益的行为(other acts that disrupt school order or infringe personal and property rights and interests)。

《意见》同时提出,突出“预防为先”,实现“不闹也赔”,强调“闹也不赔”。

Government officials, organizations or individuals should not interfere in dispute settlement procedures to quiet down the situation by forcing the school to shoulder more responsibility and provide quick compensation, the guideline said.为避免政府领导出于息事宁人的考虑,片面加重学校责任,明确规定任何组织和个人不得非法干涉纠纷处理。责任明确前,学校不得赔钱息事。

People should resort to legal means - such as consultation, meditation and lawsuits - to resolve disputes, it said. The school should make compensation in accordance with law if it is held accountable after investigation.

各方应该积极通过协商、调解、诉讼等合法方式化解纠纷。学校确有责任的,要依法、及时进行伤害赔偿。

贷款市场报价利率 loan prime rate(LPR)

The People's Bank of China (PBOC) announced Sunday that it will replace the loan benchmark interest rate with the loan prime rate (LPR) as a benchmark for setting the interest rate of newly issued commercial individual housing loans.8月25日,中国人民银行宣布新发放商业性个人住房贷款利率的定价基准将由贷款基准利率变换为贷款市场报价利率。

【名词解释】

贷款市场报价利率(loan prime rate,简称LPR)是指由各报价行根据其对最优质客户执行的贷款利率(lending rates for their best customers),按照公开市场操作利率加点形成的方式报价(submit their LPR quotations based on what they have bid for PBOC liquidity in open market operations),由中国人民银行授权全国银行间同业拆借中心(National Interbank Loans Center)计算得出并发布的利率。

目前,商业银行实行的存贷款利率是根据央行公布的存贷款基准利率(benchmark deposit and lending rate)制定的。

Starting from Oct. 8, the interest rate of newly issued commercial individual housing loans will be based on lastest month's LPR of the corresponding term, while certain basis points will be added, the PBOC said in a statement. Housing loan contracts already inked or in implementation will not be affected by the new rules.央行发布的公告表示,自10月8日起,新发放商业性个人住房贷款利率以最近一个月相应期限的贷款市场报价利率(LPR)为定价基准加点形成。存量个人住房贷款利率不受新政影响。

定价基准转换后,全国范围内新发放首套个人住房贷款利率不得低于相应期限LPR(the housing loan interest rate for first-time buyers should not be lower than the LPR of the corresponding term),按8月20日5年期以上LPR计算为4.85%;二套个人住房贷款利率不得低于相应期限LPR加60个基点(按8月20日5年期以上LPR计算为5.45%),与当前我国个人住房贷款实际最低利率水平基本相当(at the same level of the current lowest personal mortgage loan rate)。

公告表示,人民银行省一级分支机构应按照“因城施策”原则,在国家统一的信贷政策基础上,根据当地房地产市场形势变化,确定辖区内首套和二套商业性个人住房贷款利率加点下限(a basis point addition floor will be decided based on the development of local property markets)。银行业金融机构应根据加点下限合理确定每笔贷款的具体加点数值。

Interest rate policies for individual housing loans via one's housing provident fund will stay unchanged.公积金个人住房贷款利率政策暂不调整。

央行有关负责人表示,这一调整是为了落实好“房子是用来住的,不是用来炒的(housing is for living in, not for speculation)”定位和房地产市场长效管理机制(a long-term management mechanism for the real estate market),确保定价基准平稳有序转换,维护借贷双方合法权益。

江苏自贸试验区围绕打造开放型经济发展先行区(pioneer in open economy development)、实体经济创新发展(innovative development of real economy)和产业转型升级示范区(demonstration zone for industrial tranformation and upgrade),提出了提高境外投资合作水平、强化金融对实体经济的支撑和支持制造业创新发展(support innovation and development of the manufacturing industry)等方面的具体举措。

新版语文教材 new Chinese textbooks

教育部日前召开新闻发布会介绍高中三科统编教材情况。今年9月起,高中思想政治、语文、历史三科统编教材将在北京、上海、天津、山东、海南、辽宁6个省(市)率先使用。其他省市也将在2022年前全部使用新教材。

"The new Chinese textbooks boast a selection of 67 classic works of ancient poetry and prose that account for 49.3 percent of all articles," said Wen Rumei, editor-in-chief of the new Chinese textbooks, at a press conference held by the Ministry of Education (MOE) on Tuesday.普通高中语文教材总主编温儒敏介绍,新的统编语文教材中,共选入古代诗文67篇(首),占全部课文数的49.3%。

【词汇讲解】

这些名词均含“文章”或“论文”之意。Composition多指学校里老师给学生的作文练习;article多指在报刊、杂志上发表的非文艺性的文章,包括新闻报道、学术论文等;prose专指散文。Paper是美式英语,对应的英式英语是essay,在大学里一般都指文章,作为考试成绩的一部分,不是专著性的论文。而thesis和dissertation在中文里都可以翻译为论文、毕业论文,有时也可以互换使用,表示博士论文或者硕士论文。不过严格地说,英国大学和美国大学对这两个词的使用和定义很不一样,可以说正好相反:英国的博士论文一般都是thesis,指有创见性的专著性论文,硕士论文是dissertation;而在美国dissertation表示最高一层的、深入的、有独创性的毕业论文,即博士论文,thesis则多指硕士论文。

据悉,语文新教材精选了反映中华优秀传统文化的经典名篇(classic articles featuring traditional Chinese culture),从古风、民歌(folk music)、绝句(quatrains)、律诗(metrical verse)到词曲,从诸子散文到历史散文(proses),从两汉论文、魏晋辞赋到唐宋明清古文,从文言小说(classical novels)到白话小说(vernacular novels),均有呈现。

The textbook puts special emphasis on China's revolutionary history, including five articles written by late Chinese leader Mao Zedong and five articles by prominent modern Chinese writer Lu Xun, who was a leading figure in the New Culture Movement in the 1910s, Wen said.温儒敏表示,语文教材选取反映革命历史的作品,其中包括毛泽东的5篇(首)文章,以及上世纪初“新文化运动”先锋鲁迅的5篇文章。

It also includes more than 10 foreign classic articles as well as those reflecting China's achievements, he added.教材也选入了十多篇外国文学文化经典作品,以及反映我国发展成就的作品。

针对背诵问题,温儒敏说,古诗文的背诵数不是很多,“高中要求背诵的古诗文才20篇,如果以三年来算,平均每个学年背诵六七篇,并不是很多。”
