成都大熊猫繁育研究基地 Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in Sichuan province said visitors will have to book tickets online during the upcoming National Day holiday that runs from Oct 1 to 7. Tickets will not be sold at the base's ticket office or ticket-selling machines during the period, according to a circular released by the base.
成都大熊猫繁育研究基地发布公告，国庆7天假期期间，参观该基地的游客需提前通过网络订票，现场售票处和售票机均停止售票。

As many as 60,000 tickets will be sold online for a single day over the period, 36,000 tickets for the morning and 24,000 for the afternoon.
单日网络售票限6万张，其中，上午时段限量3.6万张，下午时段限量2.4万张。

The maximum number of visitors allowed in the base at one time will be 22,000.
园区内实时最大游客量限量2.2万人。

【词汇讲解】

日常使用中at和time搭配的短语有好几个，比如，at times, at a time, at one time。这几个短语在用法上有一些区别：at times表示“有时”，跟sometimes用法类似，比如，I like Bob but he's very annoying at times.（我喜欢鲍勃，但是他有时也很烦人。）At a time一般表示“一次，每次”，比如，please come in, one at a time.（请进吧，一次进一个。）At one time一般表示“过去某一时期，曾经一度”（与once接近）或“同时”的意思，比如，I used to live here at one time.（我曾经住在这儿。）用作“同时”讲的时候，at one time和at a time可以相互替换使用，所以，上文中的句子也可以写为：The maximum number of visitors allowed in the base at a time will be 22,000.

公告表示，实时游客量达到2.2万人上限时，将暂停检票入园（suspend admission）；待游客量减少后重启检票。

9月24日10：00开始网上提前售卖电子门票。

阅兵不是“秀肌肉”

China has no intention nor need to flex its muscles in the military parade, said Wu Qian, a spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defense, at the group interview.
国防部发言人吴谦在集体采访中表示，我们既没有意图，更没有必要通过阅兵来“秀肌肉”。

Over the last 70 years, with the enhancing military strength, China has made great contributions to the world, Wu said, adding that the stronger the country is, the greater constructive role it will play in keeping world peace.
70年来，中国军队的世界贡献有目共睹。我们自身越强，为世界和平提供的正能量就会越多。

There is a flawed logic blaming the Chinese military for "flexing its muscles" if it showcases its weapons and "having no transparency" if it does not, Wu said.
他们头脑中有一些非常奇怪的逻辑：如果中国军队展示武器装备就是“秀肌肉”，如果不展示就是“不透明”。

"The best way to deal with such logic is to focus on one's own missions," Wu said.
我觉得对付这种逻辑最好的办法就是坚定不移地做好自己的事情。

China's armed forces will resolutely safeguard China's sovereignty, security and development interests, actively contribute to building a community with a shared future for humanity and stride forward along its own path to build a stronger military under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, Wu said.
中国军队将在中国共产党的坚强领导下，坚决捍卫国家主权、安全、发展利益，积极服务构建人类命运共同体，沿着中国特色强军之路阔步向前。

平潭海峡公铁大桥 Pingtan Strait Road-rail Bridge

随着一段长17米、重473吨的钢桁梁被精确固定到位，总长16.34公里的平潭海峡公铁大桥9月25日上午合龙贯通。

The Pingtan Strait Road-rail Bridge, the world's longest cross-sea road-rail bridge, connects Pingtan Island and four nearby islets to the mainland of Fujian province.
平潭海峡公铁大桥连接平潭岛及四个周边小岛与福建省陆地区域，是世界最长的跨海公铁大桥。

【单词讲解】

英语中表示“岛”的词常见的有island，islet以及isle，注意哦，这三个单词里面的字母s都不发音，分别读作['a?l?nd]，['a?l?t]以及[a?l]。其中，isle跟island意思相同，均表示四周都被水包围的一片陆地，只不过isle多用于诗歌以及岛屿的名称，比如，the British Isles（不列颠群岛）；islet指比较小的岛（a small island）。

平潭海峡公铁大桥是福州至平潭铁路控制性工程，也是“十三五”规划中北京至台湾高铁的先期工程（preliminary project of the Beijing-Taiwan highspeed railway）。

大桥起于福州市长乐区，“踏”过四座小岛后抵达中国第五大岛平潭，上层设计为时速100公里的六车道高速公路（six-lane expressway），下层为设计时速200公里的高铁（high-speed railway）。据福建福平铁路公司介绍，大桥计划2020年正式通车（open to traffic in 2020）。

The bridge can help shorten travel time from two hours to half an hour between Fuzhou, capital city of Fujian province and Pingtan, a pilot zone set up to facilitate trade and cultural exchanges across the Taiwan Strait.
大桥通车后，福州到平潭之间的出行时间将由2小时缩短至30分钟。平潭是为促进两岸经贸合作和文化交流而设立的试验区。

2013年，平潭海峡公铁大桥正式动工。建设者们创造性地研发运用了一系列新结构、新材料、新工艺、新装备，成功突破了“建桥禁区（ a "no-go zone" for bridge-building）”。

全国重点文物保护单位 major historical and cultural sites protected at the national level

9月26日召开的国务院常务会议核定了第八批762处新的全国重点文物保护单位，包括古遗址、古建筑、近现代重要史迹及代表性建筑等。

With 762 new sites added to the list, the number of major historical and cultural sites protected at the national level will reach 5,058, many of them located in Shanxi, Henan, Hebei, Zhejiang and Shaanxi provinces.
762处新的保护单位核定以后，我国目前共有5058处全国重点文物保护单位，其中很多位于山西、河南、河北、浙江以及陕西省。

【名词解释】

全国重点文物保护单位（major historical and cultural sites protected at the national level）是中华文明的优秀代表和重要标识。1961年，国务院核定公布了第一批180处国保单位。根据2002年10月28日第九届全国人民代表大会常务委员会第三十次会议通过的《中华人民共和国文物保护法》第十三条的规定，国务院文物行政部门在省级、市、县级文物保护单位中，选择具有重大历史、艺术、科学价值的（those with significant historical, artistic and scientific value）确定为全国重点文物保护单位，或者直接确定为全国重点文物保护单位，报国务院核定公布。

会议强调，要坚持价值优先、质量第一（the value and quality of the cultural relics should be prioritized），保证真实性、完整性（their originality and completeness preserved），健全法规制度（improve relevant laws and regulations），吸引社会力量参与，有效保护、管理和合理利用中华民族的宝贵历史遗存（ensure effective protection, management and proper utilization of the valuable heritage sites of the Chinese nation），促进中华文明薪火相传，增强民族自信心凝聚力。
