#Hi家教時事英語筆記
近期台灣的疫情升溫,這幾天有個名詞大家一定不陌生,就是「校正回歸」啦!今天跟著編編學習幾個簡單生字哦~
#校正回歸 backlog
#確診病例 confirmed case
#疫情爆發 outbreak
#潛伏期 incubation period
#死亡人數 death toll
#校正回歸 backlog
英文是backlog,log在英文中有紀錄之意,而船長的航海紀錄本寫的就叫log。登入網站的動作為log in,所以backlog就是代表後來才登錄的資料,我們就稱為「校正回歸」哦。
Did you hear the news, The CECC announced that new cases and the backlog of 400 cases added to previous days.
你有聽說那個新聞嗎?疫情指揮中心剛宣佈了新確診數以及有400個個案被加入前幾天的確診數據。
#確診病例 confirmed case
All of the household and healthcare worker contacts of the confirmed case have been traced.
目前已對曾接觸過確診病例的所有家人和醫護人員進行了追蹤
#疫情爆發 outbreak
這裡有一個單字要特別注意,那就是和outbreak很像的 breakout ,代表「突破、越獄」的意思。是完全不同的意思哦,千萬不要搞混這兩種用法。
The covid-19 outbreak in whole world is unprecedented.
此次新冠肺炎病毒在全世界爆發是前所未有的。
#潛伏期 incubation period
Have you ever traveled to or lived in a foreign country during the incubation period?
潛伏期內,你是否曾在國外旅遊或居住?
#死亡人數 death toll
Toll常用在當「過路費」的意思,但美式英文裡toll還有一個重要的意思,高強度的受苦折磨、傷害 a high degree of suffering or damage,這樣就能理解為什麼會翻成死亡人數囉。
The situation was growing increasingly complex and the death toll was rising daily.
情況越來越複雜,死亡人數每天都在上升。

🖐🏽 五分鐘來關心國際時事— 美國🇺🇸
Trump Administration Turns Up Pressure on China on Several Fronts
川普政府在幾個方面對中國施加更大的壓力。
WASHINGTON—The Trump administration is intensifying U.S. pressure on China, piling on visa bans, sanctions and other restrictions that are battering already unsettled ties between the world’s two largest economies.
📌 文章第一段就以這個主題為切入點,施壓的領域包括簽證禁令、制裁和其他限制。
🖋 intensify pressure on 的意思就是 turn up pressure on。pile on (堆積),在修辭學裡有「轉化」的作用(將虛擬實)。ban (禁令)、sanction (制裁) 和 restriction (限制)常於國際新聞出現的詞語。
Attorney General William Barr, in a speech Thursday, warned U.S. businesses that they are at risk of collaborating with a Chinese government that ultimately seeks to supplant them in its expanding state-run economy. Administration officials are also discussing banning travel by China’s Communist Party members and their families to the U.S., people familiar with the matter said.
📌 文章第二段引述美國司法部長在一篇演說中對企業家的警告:中國政府最終或許取締他們!這段也提到美國官員考慮禁止中國共產黨員和家屬去美國。
🖋 Attorney General (司法部長)是美國高級官員,他想美國企業發出嚴厲的警告,用at risk of + noun phrase 來表達。administration official 是常用的片語,指政府官員。
Discussions are in early stages, with no timeline for being put into effect, the people said. If put into policy, advisers and policy analysts said the ban would strike at the legitimacy of the increasingly powerful party.
📌文章第三段補充說,有關考慮處於初步階段,如果被實施回打擊共產黨的合法性。
🖋 timeline (時間表)是常用用語,其他常見的用語包括 policy、adviser、policy analyst。legitimacy (合法性)是個高階字,在有關政治的文章常常出現。
The administration has amped up a broader confrontation with Beijing in recent weeks by imposing sanctions on a member of the Communist Party leadership, signing legislation that targets other Chinese officials and holding full-scale military exercises in the South China Sea.
📌文章第四段講述美國在最近幾個星期跟中國的對抗:制裁一位共產黨高層人員、簽署針對其他中國官員的法例和在南中國海舉行軍事演習。
🖋amp up (放大) 是個轉化的修辭片語,impose(施加)跟sanction搭配的,legislation是law的同義詞,target在這裡是及物動詞,千萬別加at。
All this has come after President Trump for months has blamed China for covering up the initial corona virus outbreak that his administration has struggled to contain in the U.S.
📌文章第五段為這一切提供背景:川普幾個月來責怪中國隱瞞疫情。
🖋 blame 是基本的動詞,要記住它的用法,cover up (掩飾) 很常用,另外,contain在這裡的意思不是包括,而是遏制。
