Another 117 were injured, including 29 in serious condition. In addition, 1,242 have been rescued from debris or brought to safety. People's Liberation Army soldiers used explosives to blast the blockage that created a barrier lake on the Bailong River. After two blasts, the level of the barrier lake decreased by a meter. The Gansu government has sent 3,900 tents, about 40,000 boxes of instant noodles and 31,300 boxes of bottled drinking water to the county. The Ministry of Finance has allocated 500 million yuan (US$73 million) in emergency aid. |

據(jù)新華社報(bào)道，中國(guó)工業(yè)與信息化部周日宣布將在9月底之前淘汰的落后產(chǎn)能企業(yè)，共涉及18個(gè)行業(yè)的2087家企業(yè)，包括水泥、造紙、冶金、染色和鋼鐵。工信部部長(zhǎng)李毅中表示，到期未按要求關(guān)閉的落后產(chǎn)能企業(yè)將被吊銷(xiāo)排污許可證，不得申請(qǐng)銀行貸款和新增用地。 |
| Spell check, please |
請(qǐng)檢查拼寫(xiě) |
| "Separate" is the most commonly misspelled word in the English language, according to a new study, the Telegraph reported. The word won due to the regular placing of an "E" where the first "A" sits. Second in the list was "definitely," which often falls victim to a string of mistakes, which include mixing up the second "I" with an "A." Another common error is dropping the final "E." "Manoeuvre," or "maneuver" in proper U.S. English, which finished third, is problematic due to the unusual combination of OE and U. The study shows that a common mistake is writing a word the way it sounds, which leaves confusion with one letter with another. Two out of three admitted using spell check on computers had made them lazy so they never learned the correct spelling. One in five blamed text messaging for their bad spelling. |
英國(guó)《每日電訊報(bào)》報(bào)道，一項(xiàng)最新研究顯示，“separate”是最常被拼錯(cuò)的英文單詞，原因在于該詞中的第一個(gè)A經(jīng)常被誤拼為E。“definitely”位居第二，拼錯(cuò)處在于第二個(gè)I被拼成A，或是漏掉最后一個(gè)E。位列第三的是“manoeuvre”（美式拼法為maneuver），其容易拼錯(cuò)的關(guān)鍵在于罕見(jiàn)的OE與U相連。研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，人們常犯的錯(cuò)誤是根據(jù)發(fā)音來(lái)拼寫(xiě)，以致把某些字母搞錯(cuò)而拼錯(cuò)字； 2/3的人坦承電腦的拼寫(xiě)檢查功能讓他們變得越來(lái)越懶，不愿學(xué)習(xí)正確的拼法；另有1/5的人將拼寫(xiě)能力的下降歸罪于手機(jī)的智能輸入法。 |
| North Korea seizes South's fishing boat |
朝鮮扣留韓國(guó)漁船 |
| North Korea has seized a South Korean fishing boat, Daeseung 55, off the peninsula's east coast, amid high tensions between the two sides over a major joint naval exercise by the South and the U.S., Seoul's coastguard said Sunday, AFP reported. The boat contained four South Korean and three Chinese crewmen and was detained while presumably operating near the North's exclusive economic zone, the coastguard said in a statement. It was being towed Sunday to the North's northeastern port of Songjin. The 41-ton vessel's home port is Pohang in the southeast of South Korea. It left port on August 1 and was scheduled to return on September 10. |
美韓聯(lián)合海上軍演令朝韓關(guān)系高度緊張。據(jù)法新社報(bào)道，韓國(guó)海洋警察廳周日發(fā)表聲明稱(chēng)，韓國(guó)一艘名為“55大勝”號(hào)的漁船疑因在朝鮮專(zhuān)屬經(jīng)濟(jì)區(qū)附近作業(yè)而在半島東部海域被朝鮮扣留，并被拉往朝鮮東北部的城津海港。船上共有4名韓國(guó)人，3名中國(guó)人。這艘41噸級(jí)的漁船8月1日離開(kāi)韓國(guó)浦項(xiàng)港口，原計(jì)劃9月10日歸航。 |
