  • 研究:气候变化或将影响全球计时
    原标题:Climate change could affect timekeeping, study says


    Climate change is affecting the speed of the Earth's rotation and could impact how we keep time, a study says.
    一项研究称,气候变化正在影响地球的自转速度,并可能影响人类的计时方式。

     
    "Global warming is already affecting global timekeeping," says the study, published in the journal Nature.
    这项发表在《自然》(Nature)杂志上的研究指出:"全球变暖已经在影响全球计时。"

     
    Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) - which is used by most of the world to regulate clocks and time - is calculated by the Earth's rotation.
    "协调世界时"(UTC)是根据地球自转计算出来的,世界上大多数国家都用它来管理时钟和时间。


    But the Earth's rotation rate is not constant and can therefore have an effect on how long our days and nights are.
    但地球的自转速度并不是恒定的,因此会对我们的昼夜长短产生影响。


    Changes to the planet's liquid core have meant the Earth has been spinning slightly quicker.
    地球液态内核的变化意味着地球自转速度略快。

     
    Since the 1970s, to correct for this, about 27 leap seconds have been added to the global clock, with timekeepers planning on subtracting a second for the first time in 2026. This is known as a "negative leap second."
    自 20 世纪 70 年代以来,为了纠正这一现象,全球时钟已经增加了约 27 个闰秒,计时员计划将在 2026 年首次减少一秒。这被称为 "负闰秒"。


    However, the study finds that ice melting caused by climate change has partly offset that acceleration.
    然而,研究发现,气候变化导致的冰雪融化部分抵消了这一加速。

     
    Ice sheets are now losing mass five times faster than they were 30 years ago, meaning that the negative leap second change will not be needed until 2029, the study suggests.
    研究表明,冰盖现在的质量损失速度是30年前的5倍,这意味着可能直到2029年才需要负闰秒的变化。

     
    "It's kind of impressive, even to me, we've done something that measurably changes how fast the Earth rotates," Duncan Agnew, the author of the study, told NBC News.
    这项研究的作者邓肯•阿格纽告诉美国全国广播公司新闻(NBC News):"即使对我来说,我们已经做了一些可以适度地改变地球旋转速度的事情,这也是令人印象深刻的。"


    "Things are happening that are unprecedented."
    "正在发生的事情是前所未有的。"

     
    The negative leap second has never been used before and, according to the study, its use "will pose an unprecedented problem" for computer systems across the world.
    负闰秒以前从未使用过,根据这项研究,负闰秒的使用将给全球计算机系统 "带来前所未有的问题"。



    "This has never happened before, and poses a major challenge to making sure that all parts of the global timing infrastructure show the same time," Mr Agnew, who is a researcher at the University of California, San Diego told AFP news agency.
    加利福尼亚大学圣迭戈分校的研究员阿格纽先生告诉法新社记者:"这种情况以前从未发生过,这对确保全球计时基础设施的所有部分都显示相同的时间构成了重大挑战。"

     
    "Many computer programs for leap seconds assume they are all positive, so these would have to be rewritten," he added.
    他补充说:"许多计算闰秒的计算机程序都假定它们都是正数,因此这些程序必须重写。"

     
    There has been some skepticism of the study, however.
    然而,也有一些人对这项研究持怀疑态度。

     
    Demetrios Matsakis, former chief scientist for time services at the US Naval Observatory, told AFP that "Earth is too unpredictable to be sure" if a negative leap second would be needed any time soon.
    美国海军天文台负责时间服务的前首席科学家德米特里奥斯•马萨基斯告诉法新社说,"地球太不可预测了,无法确定是否在不久的将来就需要负闰秒。"


    Human activities like burning fossil fuels are causing world temperatures to rise.
    燃烧化石燃料等人类活动正在导致全球气温上升。

     
    That temperature rise is having a huge effect on the environment, including the rapid melting of glaciers and ice sheets.
    气温上升对环境产生了巨大影响,包括冰川和冰盖的迅速融化。

  • 开封明星媒人“王婆”休假一个月
    原标题:Kaifeng's star matchmaker taking leave of one month


    The actress of the viral live show Wang Po Matchmaking, which has turned Kaifeng, Henan province, into a hot destination for the Tomb Sweeping Day holiday, has been granted a monthlong leave that started on Wednesday, a day before the three-day holiday began.
    走红的直播节目《王婆说媒》让河南开封成为了清明节假期的热门目的地,该节目的女主角从周三开始,也就是三天假期开始的前一天,获得了为期一个月的假期。


    The performance, staged each day at Wansuishan Kungfu Theme Park, is based on the classic Chinese novel Shuihu Zhuan, or Water Margin, from the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127).
    这场表演每天在万岁山武侠主题公园上演,取材于中国北宋(960-1127)的经典小说《水浒传》。


    The protagonist of the performance is Wang Po, an elderly woman who has her own tea house, runs a matchmaking business and also delivers babies.
    这场演出的主角是王婆,一个有自己茶馆、经营婚介生意、还接生的老妇人。


    Zhao Mei, who plays Wang Po, asked for a monthlong leave after the show was mired in controversy due to some travelers' dishonest marriage-seeking behavior.
    王婆的扮演者赵梅在该节目因一些游客不诚实的征婚行为而陷入争议,她请了一个月的假。


    Zhao has become a showstopper, thanks to her amusing style of talking, improvisational matchmaking approach and amazing dancing skills.
    赵梅已经成为一个引人注目的人物,这要归功于她有趣的谈话风格,即兴的相亲方式和惊人的舞蹈技巧。


    According to a statement from the theme park on Wednesday, other actresses will continue the performance during Zhao's leave. The park also reminded travelers to have a rational view of the show as a performance, rather than taking it as a pure matchmaking event.
    根据主题公园周三的一份声明,其他女演员将在赵梅休假期间继续演出。该公园还提醒游客要理性看待这场演出,而不是把它当作纯粹的相亲活动。


    During the show, Zhao has encouraged members of the audience to come onstage and tell her about their ideal partner, and she has then attempted to find them their perfect match. Her stellar performance has not only made her an online celebrity, but has also made the theme park and the city popular among young travelers.
    在节目中,赵梅鼓励观众上台告诉她自己的理想伴侣,然后她试图为他们找到完美的另一半。她的出色表演不仅使她成为网红,也使主题公园和这座城市在年轻游客中受到欢迎。


    Travel and tour agencies said there was a scramble for tickets to the theme park as well as for train tickets to and hotel bookings in Kaifeng during the holiday from Thursday to Saturday.
    旅游和旅行社表示,在周四至周六的假期期间,开封主题公园的门票以及前往开封的火车票和酒店预订都很抢手。


    Wansuishan Kungfu Theme Park suspended online ticket booking services on Thursday, due to the surging number of travelers.
    由于游客数量激增,万岁山功夫主题公园周四暂停了网上订票服务。


    The Kaifeng travel boom has had a positive impact on the province's other holiday destinations. According to Tuniu, an online travel agency, the sales of tour products to Henan increased 99 percent between March 22 and 28 compared with the previous week, with the number skyrocketing 207 percent compared with the same period in 2023.
    开封的旅游热潮对该省其他度假胜地产生了积极影响。据在线旅行社途牛称,3月22日至28日期间,河南旅游产品的销售额与前一周相比增长了99%,与2023年同期相比飙升了207%。


    "The show was incredibly interesting. I saw several young girls and boys rushing to the stage to seek their ideal mates. Wang Po was listening to them carefully and tried her best to find them a good match," said Li Yi, a 28-year-old from Zhengzhou, who drove to Kaifeng for a day trip on March 30.
    来自郑州的28岁的李毅(音译)3月30日驱车前往开封进行一日游,他说:“这场演出非常有趣。我看到几个年轻的女孩和男孩冲上舞台寻找他们的理想伴侣。王婆认真地听他们说话,并尽最大努力为他们找到合适的伴侣。”


    "I'm not sure if the on-site matchmaking will have good results, so there is no need to take it too seriously," he added. "It is entertaining and evokes laughter from the audience."
    他补充道:“我不确定现场相亲是否会有好的结果,所以没有必要太认真。”“它很有趣,能引起观众的笑声。”


    Wei Changren, founder of btiii.com, a tourism-related financial news portal, said the show has resonated with young people, who are always attracted to interactive and immersive travel experiences.
    旅游相关财经新闻门户网站btiii.com的创始人魏昌仁表示,该节目在年轻人中引起了共鸣,他们总是被互动和沉浸式的旅行体验所吸引。


    "The interactive show of Wang Po has made the purposeful and boring matchmaking process an interesting one," Wei said.
    魏说:“王婆的互动节目让有目的、无聊的相亲过程变得有趣起来。”


    Li Lixin, director of the Literature Research Institute of the Henan Academy of Social Sciences, told chinanews.com that the success of Wang Po and the popularity of Kaifeng were not achieved overnight.
    河南省社会科学院文学研究所所长李立新对中新网记者表示,王婆的成功和开封的走红并非一蹴而就。


    He said that Henan has channeled great resources and efforts in the past 20 years into shaping the province into a cultural and tourism destination, highlighting the history of the Song Dynasty (960-1279), as several cities such as Luoyang and Kaifeng were ancient capitals.
    他说,河南在过去20年中投入了大量资源和努力,将该省打造成一个文化和旅游目的地,突出了宋代(960年-1279年)的历史,因为洛阳和开封等几个城市都是古都。


    "Wang Po is a villain in the novel, but the modern performance has turned the character into a warmhearted, humorous and positive person," Li added.
    李补充道:“王婆在小说中是一个反派,但现代的表演把这个角色变成了一个热情、幽默、积极的人。”


    Wei, from btiii.com, said that well-developed social media platforms such as Douyin have helped boost the popularity of Wang Po and the city.
    来自btiii.com的魏表示,抖音等发达的社交媒体平台帮助提高了王婆和这座城市的知名度。


    "Their success is also the result of their persistent innovation, as neither the theme park nor Wang Po's show is new. This success can be used as a reference for other destinations to shape their own attractive tour products," Wei added.
    “他们的成功也是他们不断创新的结果,因为无论是主题公园还是王婆的表演都不是新的。这一成功可以作为其他目的地塑造自己有吸引力的旅游产品的参考,”魏补充道。

  • 中国台湾花莲县海域发生7.3级地震
    原标题:7.3-magnitude quake hits China's Taiwan

    A 7.3-magnitude earthquake jolted the sea area near Hualien in China's Taiwan on Wednesday, leading to the suspension of work and school classes in Hualien.

    The quake struck at 7:58 am Wednesday (Beijing Time) and the epicenter was monitored at 23.81 degrees north latitude and 121.74 degrees east longitude, at a depth of 12 km, according to the China Earthquake Networks Center.

    The Ministry of Natural Resources warning center issued a red alert for a tsunami soon after the earthquake. It later issued an orange alert for tsunami.

    Taiwan's meteorological agency measured the quake as 7.2 magnitude, saying it was the strongest earthquake to hit the island in 25 years since a deadly earthquake struck on Sept 21, 1999.

    According to the agency, the earthquake was monitored at a depth of 15.5 km. The epicenter was located 25 km south-southeast of Hualien. The maximum intensity recorded was 6 magnitude in Hualien county.

    Local authorities have announced the suspension of work and school classes in Hualien.

    Strong tremors were felt across Taiwan. Xinhua reporters in Taipei experienced intense tremors as buildings shook continuously for over a minute. Elevators in the reporters' apartment building were suspended from operation.

    Multiple residential buildings partially collapsed in Hualien, forcing the evacuation of hundreds of residents. Falling rocks were also reported in hilly areas.

    A rubber factory building in New Taipei City collapsed due to the quake.

    Subways in multiple counties and cities on the island have been temporarily suspended. Taipei's metro system resumed operation after being suspended for around one hour.

    Multiple aftershocks measuring above 5.0 magnitude hit Hualien and nearby areas.

    Taiwan's meteorological agency also predicted earthquakes measuring magnitude 7 might happen in the next three days.

    Across the Taiwan Strait, tremors were also felt in Fujian, Guangdong, Shanghai, Zhejiang and Jiangsu on the Chinese mainland.

  • 小米SU7为电动汽车领域注入新活力
    原标题:Xiaomi SU7 heats up EV segment


    The official launch of Xiaomi Corp's much-anticipated first electric vehicle will intensify competition in the crowded Chinese EV market and inject new vitality into the EV sedan segment, experts said on Friday.
    专家周五表示,小米公司备受期待的首款电动汽车的正式发布将加剧拥挤的中国电动汽车市场的竞争,并为电动汽车轿车领域注入新的活力。


    Their remarks came after Lei Jun, founder and CEO of Xiaomi, on Thursday night reaffirmed its ambition to build cars comparable to those of global automakers Porsche and Tesla and to become one of the top five auto manufacturers in the world.
    在他们发表上述言论之前,小米创始人兼首席执行官雷军在周四晚上重申了其制造与全球汽车制造商保时捷和特斯拉相媲美的汽车,并成为世界前五大汽车制造商之一的雄心。


    He announced that the price of its SU7 sedan models would range between 215,900 yuan ($29,874) and 299,900 yuan.
    他宣布,其SU7轿车车型的价格将在21.59万元(29874美元)至29.99万元之间。


    Roy Lu, a Shanghai-based automotive analyst, said Xiaomi's entry is expected to intensify competition in China's new energy vehicle market where established automakers, startups and tech companies are all vying to expand their presence.
    上海汽车分析师罗伊·卢(Roy Lu)表示,小米的进入预计将加剧中国新能源汽车市场的竞争,在这个市场上,老牌汽车制造商、初创公司和科技公司都在竞相扩大自己的影响力。


    A price war is already on in China's EV market, which is the world's largest.
    在中国这个全球最大的电动汽车市场,一场价格战已经打响。


    Xiaomi's edge lies in its AI-enabled internet of things, or IoT ecosystem, which might give it an upper hand amid competition, Lu said.
    罗伊·卢说,小米的优势在于其支持人工智能的物联网或物联网生态系统,这可能会让它在竞争中占据上风。


    That was fully on display at Xiaomi's launch event on Thursday night in Beijing where Lei not only explained the details of car design and automated driving functions, but also unveiled more than 100 IoT items that are useful to Xiaomi's car, such as tablets and refrigerators.
    周四晚在北京举行的小米发布会上,雷军不仅解释了汽车设计和自动驾驶功能的细节,还公布了100多个对小米汽车有用的物联网产品,如平板电脑和冰箱。


    The Beijing-based company is hoping that the SU7's shared operating system with its phones, laptops and other devices will appeal to existing customers.
    这家总部位于北京的公司希望SU7与手机、笔记本电脑和其他设备的共享操作系统能吸引现有客户。


    Lei said Xiaomi plans to invest 24 billion yuan in research and development this year, demonstrating a serious commitment to manufacturing cars.
    雷军表示,小米今年计划在研发上投入240亿元人民币,这表明小米对制造汽车的认真承诺。


    The Xiaomi SU7 underwent comprehensive testing in 300 cities, covering a total road distance of 5.4 million kilometers, with 576 test vehicles deployed.
    小米SU7在300个城市进行了全面测试,覆盖了540万公里的总道路距离,部署了576辆测试车。


    Lei said that over the past three years of manufacturing cars, his biggest realization was just how difficult it is, noting that even large companies like Apple Inc have given up on it.
    雷军说,在过去三年制造汽车的过程中,他最大的体会是制造汽车有多么困难,他指出,即使是像苹果公司这样的大公司也放弃了制造汽车。


    According to him, consumers have already widely accepted electrification, and the key to winning the next stage of competition in EVs is to make cars as intelligent as possible, and that is Xiaomi's edge, as it has been devoting resources to AI R&D since 2016.
    据他介绍,消费者已经广泛接受了电气化,赢得电动汽车下一阶段竞争的关键是让汽车尽可能智能,这是小米的优势,因为它自2016年以来一直在投入资源进行人工智能研发。


    Shortly after the launch event, Xiaomi said it had received over 50,000 orders within the first 27 minutes.
    发布会后不久,小米表示,在最初的27分钟内就收到了超过5万份订单。


    Zhang Yongwei, vice-president and secretary-general of China EV 100, a major auto industry think tank, said the competition in the EV industry will heat up this year, with a more differentiated market landscape.
    中国电动汽车百强协会副主席兼秘书长张永伟表示,今年电动汽车行业的竞争将更加激烈,市场格局将更加分化。


    The next one or two years will be very crucial, Zhang said, as companies that may not have the necessary competence will likely exit the market after a shakeout.
    张永伟说,未来一两年将是非常关键的,因为那些不具备必要能力的公司可能会在洗牌后退出市场。


    "The production volume and sales of new energy vehicles in China are expected to reach 13 million units in 2024, with a year-on-year growth rate of about 40 percent," Zhang said.
    张永伟说:“到2024年,中国新能源汽车的产量和销量预计将达到1300万辆,同比增长率约为40%。”


    Earlier this week, Chinese carmaker BYD announced its highest ever yearly profits but noted a deceleration in growth compared to the end of last year.
    本周早些时候,中国汽车制造商比亚迪(BYD)公布了有史以来最高的年度利润,但与去年年底相比,增长有所放缓。


    Nio, a Shanghai-based EV manufacturer, reduced its first-quarter delivery projections citing lackluster demand.
    总部位于上海的电动汽车制造商蔚来汽车(Nio)下调了第一季度的交付预期,理由是需求低迷。


    Experts said whether or not Xiaomi can really afford the capital and time needed for the cash-intensive smart car business remains to be seen, given that several Chinese companies that had entered the segment faced severe financial difficulties. Some of them have even gone bankrupt.
    专家表示,考虑到几家进入智能汽车领域的中国公司面临严重的财务困难,小米是否真的能负担得起现金密集型智能汽车业务所需的资金和时间,还有待观察。其中一些甚至已经破产。

  • 中国足协原主席被判处无期徒刑
    原标题:Former head of Chinese Football Association sentenced to life

    Chen Xuyuan, former head of the Chinese Football Association, was sentenced to life for bribery, the Intermediate People's Court in Huangshi, Hubei province, announced on Tuesday.

    The court also stripped Chen of his political rights and ordered that all his personal assets be confiscated.

    In addition, illicit gains and relevant interests Chen obtained should be turned over to the national treasury, the court said.

    From 2010 to 2023, Chen misused his positions, including that of president of the Shanghai International Port Group and president of the association, to seek benefits for relevant departments and individuals in project contracting, investment and event arrangements, according to the court.

    In return, he accepted bribes worth more than 81.03 million yuan ($11.2 million), of which, 4 million yuan were not successfully obtained at the end, the court added.

    "Chen's behavior has constituted the crime of bribery, and the amount of the bribes was extremely large," the court said.

    "Chen should be harshly punished, as he provided illegal help to others in job promotion and adjustment, and also sought undue benefits for multiple soccer clubs and associations in matters such as match arrangements, league promotions and referee decisions during his tenure at the association, seriously disrupting the fair competition order and industrial environment in the soccer sector, causing severe harm to the national soccer development," the court said.

    "Considering he pleaded guilty, voluntarily confessed to bribery instances not yet known to the investigators, exposed others' offenses that were later found to be true and returned all illicit gains, we've leniently penalized him," it added.

    Chen, 67, a Shanghai native, started his career in 1973 and joined the Communist Party of China in 1979.

    He worked as president of the Shanghai International Port Group from February 2011 to June 2019. Two months later, he became the association's president.

    In February 2023, he was placed under disciplinary and supervisory investigation.

  • “零添加”食品可能并没有想的那么健康
    原标题:Health products sold on livestreams not that healthy


    In recent years, sugar-free products in China have surged in popularity, driven by increased health consciousness and concerns over obesity.
    近年来,由于大众健康意识的提高和对肥胖问题的担忧,“无糖”食品很受市场欢迎。
     

    Raising safety concerns about zero-sugar foods and beverages, the Shanghai Consumer Council has warned that some food products marketed through livestreams have been misleading consumers about their sugar content.
    随着零糖食品和饮料在中国越来越受欢迎,上海市消保委对这些食品的安全问题表示了担忧,并警告称,一些在直播间销售的食品在含糖量方面存在误导消费者的情况。
     

    Shanghai Consumer Council surveyed the quality of healthy foods — those claiming to be low in fat, sugar, sodium, or high in protein — sold by 100 livestreamers on 14 major e-commerce platforms, including Taobao, Douyin, and Xiaohongshu.
    上海市消保委通过对淘宝、抖音、小红书等14个主要网购平台上的100个直播间销售的健康食品(声称低脂、低糖、低钠或高蛋白的食品)的质量进行了调查。


    Released ahead of Consumer Rights Protection Day on March 15, the survey tested products sold by livestreamers and compared their nutritional content with claims made in their promotional material.
    这项调查在“3.15”前发布,他们对直播平台销售的产品进行了检测,并将其营养成分与宣传材料中的说法进行了比较。
     

    Of the 100 livestreamers surveyed, 83 marketed their products as sugar-free or sucrose-free, targeting specific groups such as babies with diabetes, expectant mothers, or the elderly.
    在接受调查的100家直播商中,有83家以无糖或不含蔗糖的名义销售产品,针对的是“小糖人”、“孕妈妈”或“老人”等特定群体。
     

    The council criticized the widespread “zero-additive” marketing claim, suggesting some sellers use it to falsely imply their products lack unnecessary additives like pigments and preservatives.
    消保委还批评了普遍存在的以“0添加”为主要营销话术的情况,指出一些卖家利用它来虚假地暗示他们的产品没有必要的添加剂,如色素和防腐剂。
