    英语新闻丨宇树科技上市聚焦未来产业新赛道

    Chinese humanoid robot maker Unitree Robotics opened subscriptions for its initial public offering on the Shanghai Stock Exchange's sci-tech innovation board, or STAR Market, on Monday, as the market witnessed a broader economic shift with future industries expected to power the country's next wave of economic growth. 8月10日中国人形机器人制造商宇树科技在上海证券交易所科创板启动新股认购，此举正值中国经济迎来更广泛的转型，未来产业有望成为驱动国家新一轮经济增长的重要引擎。 President Xi Jinping, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said in an article published in June in the Qiushi Journal, a flagship magazine of the CPC Central Committee, that cultivating and developing future industries are of great significance for seizing the development initiative, developing new quality productive forces and improving people's quality of life.中共中央总书记、国家主席习近平在中共中央机关刊物《求是》杂志6月刊发的文章中指出，培育和发展未来产业，对于抢占发展主动权、发展新质生产力、提高人民生活品质具有重大意义。 Efforts should be made to vigorously foster first-class scientific, technological and high-tech enterprises that excel in core technologies and possess strong innovation capacities, Xi said.习近平指出，要大力培育掌握核心技术、创新能力强的一流科技型高新技术企业。 For decades, China's economic expansion was powered largely by traditional industries, infrastructure investment and manufacturing scale.数十年来，中国经济增长主要依靠传统产业、基础设施投资和制造业规模驱动。 But the next wave of growth is increasingly expected to come from future industries, including embodied intelligence, future energy, quantum technology, brain-computer interfaces and 6G, which have been highlighted as key areas in China's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30).但下一轮增长动能正日益转向未来产业，包括具身智能、未来能源、量子科技、脑机接口和6G等，这些领域已被列为"十五五"规划（2026年至2030年）的重点方向。 Since leading semiconductor firm ChangXin Memory Technologies debuted on the STAR Market in late July, a number of companies including artificial intelligence chip developer Enflame Technology, semiconductor manufacturer Can-Semi Technology, commercial rocket maker LandSpace and AI chip company Kunlunxin have been moving toward potential listings.自领先半导体企业长鑫存储7月下旬在科创板上市以来，人工智能芯片研发商燧原科技、半导体制造商积塔半导体、商业火箭企业蓝箭航天以及人工智能芯片企业昆仑芯等多家企业也在积极推进上市进程。 Behind the wave of listings is not just a reshuffle of capital market preferences, but a transformation in the sources of future economic growth.这波上市潮的背后，不仅是资本市场偏好的重新洗牌，更是未来经济增长动能来源的深刻转变。 Hu Yongjun, secretary-general of future industries and platform economy research center under the State Information Center, said: "Developing future industries is a key move in driving industrial transformation and upgrade. Technologies that appear to be in an exploratory stage today could become engines of economic growth over the next decade or more."国家信息中心未来产业与平台经济研究中心秘书长胡拥军表示："发展未来产业是推动产业转型升级的关键举措。今天看似仍处于探索阶段的技术，未来十年乃至更长时间里可能成为经济增长的引擎。" He said that future industries will fuel China's economic growth through new trillion-yuan-level industries that will come about as emerging technologies transform into commercial applications, and traditional industries are upgraded by integrating technologies such as AI, digitalization and low-carbon solutions.他表示，随着新兴技术加快向商业化应用转化，以及人工智能、数字化、低碳等技术与传统产业深度融合、推动其转型升级，未来产业将通过催生新的万亿级产业，为中国经济增长注入新动能。 "More importantly, future industries are not simply about developing several new products. They could accelerate upgrades across an entire industrial chain, from core components to end-user applications," he said.他说："更重要的是，未来产业并非仅仅是研发几款新产品，而是能够带动从核心零部件到终端应用的整条产业链加速升级。" A humanoid robot illustrates this ecosystem effect.一台人形机器人便是这种生态带动效应的生动例证 Behind a single robot are dozens of interconnected sectors, including AI models, chips, sensors, precision reducers, motors, batteries, new materials, industrial software and intelligent manufacturing equipment.一台机器人的背后，牵动着数十个相互关联的产业领域，涵盖人工智能大模型、芯片、传感器、精密减速器、电机、电池、新材料、工业软件以及智能制造装备等。 China's electric vehicle industry offers a similar example.中国电动汽车产业也提供了类似的例证。 Over the past decade, the rise of new energy vehicles has reshaped the global auto industry while driving rapid growth in power batteries, energy storage materials, intelligent driving technologies and automotive chips.过去十年间，新能源汽车的崛起重塑了全球汽车产业格局，同时带动动力电池、储能材料、智能驾驶技术和车规级芯片实现快速增长。 In addition, the Unitree IPO and other upcoming listings represent a broader reallocation of capital toward technologies that may require years of investment before generating large-scale commercial returns.此外，宇树科技上市及其他即将登陆资本市场的企业，也反映出资本正更广泛地流向那些可能需要多年投入才能实现规模化商业回报的技术领域。 Xi also stressed efforts to improve fiscal and taxation policies, vigorously develop technology finance, and optimize government procurement and talent cultivation, introduction and utilization to foster a robust environment that encourages innovation.习近平还强调，要完善财税政策，大力发展科技金融，优化政府采购，做好人才培养、引进和使用工作，营造鼓励创新的良好环境。 Tian Xuan, dean of Peking University's Guanghua School of Management, said: "China is transiting from factor-driven growth toward innovation-driven development. Capital is moving beyond its traditional role of financing capacity expansion in mature industries and increasingly taking on the earlier-stage, longer-term uncertainty involved in building future industries."北京大学光华管理学院院长田轩表示："中国正从要素驱动型增长向创新驱动型发展转变。资本正超越以往为成熟产业产能扩张融资的传统角色，日益承担起培育未来产业过程中早期、长周期不确定性的风险。" As of June 2026, the STAR Market had attracted 609 hard technology companies, with total funds raised through IPOs and refinancing exceeding 1.37 trillion yuan ($203 billion).截至2026年6月，科创板已吸引609家硬科技企业上市，通过首次公开募股及再融资累计筹资超过1.37万亿元人民币（约合2030亿美元）。 More than 40 listed companies on the market have also entered cutting-edge fields such as quantum technology, 6G and biomanufacturing.科创板上市公司中，已有40余家企业布局量子科技、6G和生物制造等前沿领域。 The China Securities Regulatory Commission has also introduced a regular "green channel" mechanism for IPO financing and mergers and acquisitions involving technology companies in strategically important core technology areas.中国证券监督管理委员会还针对掌握战略性核心技术的科技企业，建立了常态化的首次公开募股融资及并购重组"绿色通道"机制。 For instance, Unitree Robotics moved rapidly through the listing process, taking less than four months to go from the application acceptance stage to approval, marking the fastest review under the STAR Market's preliminary review mechanism since its implementation.以宇树科技为例，其上市进程推进迅速，从申报受理到审核通过历时不足四个月，创下科创板预先审阅机制实施以来的最快审核纪录。 "Amid the rapid development of AI, rising geopolitical tensions and a growing emphasis on strategic security, China needs to build a financial system better aligned with the development of new quality productive forces," Tian said.田轩表示："在人工智能快速发展、地缘政治紧张局势加剧、战略安全日益受到重视的背景下，中国需要构建一个与新质生产力发展更加适配的金融体系。" "This requires expanding the supply of patient capital, improving market structures, enhancing policy predictability and reducing resource misallocation, thereby providing sustained and solid financial support for innovation," he added.他补充说："这需要扩大耐心资本供给，完善市场结构，增强政策可预期性，减少资源错配，从而为创新提供持续而坚实的金融支撑。" quantum technology /ˈkwɒntəm tekˈnɒlədʒi/ n.量子科技 brain-computer interface /breɪn kəmˈpjuːtər ˈɪntərfeɪs/ n.脑机接口 semiconductor /ˌsemikənˈdʌktər/ n.半导体 reshuffle /riːˈʃʌfəl/ n./v.重新洗牌，调整 secretary-general /ˈsekrətəri ˈdʒenərəl/ n.秘书长 trillion-yuan-level /ˈtrɪljən juˈɑːn ˈlevəl/ adj.万亿元级的 digitalization /ˌdɪdʒɪtəlaɪˈzeɪʃən/ n.数字化 low-carbon /loʊ ˈkɑːrbən/ adj.低碳的 industrial chain /

    英语新闻丨台风减弱 强降雨威胁持续

    Typhoon Dolphin has weakened to a tropical storm after making two landfalls in eastern China's Zhejiang province, but its moisture‑rich circulation is continuing to move northwestward, threatening to unleash potentially extreme rainfall across parts of northern China, meteorologists said on Monday.周一，气象部门表示，台风白海豚在中国东部浙江省两次登陆后已减弱为热带风暴，但其水汽充沛的环流仍在向西北方向移动，或将给中国北方部分地区带来极端强降雨天眼新闻。 Dolphin, the 13th typhoon of the year, made two landfalls in Zhejiang on Sunday evening and weakened as it moved inland. But unlike many tropical cyclones that rapidly dissipate after landfall, its extensive cloud system and abundant moisture have allowed its remnants to persist and move northward and westward, said Zhang Fanghua, chief forecaster at the National Meteorological Center.国家气象中心首席预报员张芳华表示，今年第 13 号台风白海豚于周日晚间在浙江两次登陆，深入内陆后强度减弱。但和许多登陆后迅速消散的热带气旋不同，该台风庞大的云系与充沛水汽使其残余环流得以维持，并向西北方向移动。 "The residual circulation could bring persistent and extreme rainfall to parts of eastern and northern China," Zhang said.张芳华称：“残余环流可能给我国东部、北方部分地区带来持续性极端强降雨。” Dolphin's movement is forecast to significantly slow after Tuesday, and around Wednesday its remnants could stall near the border area of Hubei, Henan and Anhui provinces.预报显示，白海豚周二之后移动速度将大幅放缓，其残余环流或将在周三前后停滞于湖北、河南、安徽三省交界一带。 The residual vortex is expected to interact with an upper‑level trough in the westerlies and a cold‑air system, potentially triggering a new round of widespread and heavy rainfall, Zhang added.张芳华补充道，残余涡旋将与西风带高空槽以及冷空气系统相互作用，有可能引发新一轮大范围强降雨。 The heavy rain will cover much of Shanghai as well as Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui, Hubei, Henan and Shandong provinces through Tuesday.截至周二，强降雨将波及上海大部以及浙江、江苏、安徽、湖北、河南、山东多地。 As the rain belt moves northward on Tuesday and Wednesday, some locations in Henan, Hebei, and Shanxi could receive 400 to 600 millimeters of rain, with the possibility of exceptionally heavy downpours.随着雨带于周二、周三北移，河南、河北、山西部分地区累计降雨量可达 400‑600 毫米，或将出现特大暴雨。 Meteorologists warned that the threat will also extend into the Beijing‑Tianjin‑Hebei region. 气象专家警示，降雨威胁还将波及京津冀地区。 Zhai Liang, chief forecaster at the Beijing Meteorological Service, said that warm and humid air from Dolphin's outer circulation, combined with cold air, is expected to bring heavy rain to the region from Tuesday through Thursday.北京市气象局首席预报员翟亮表示，台风白海豚外围环流输送的暖湿气流叠加冷空气，预计将于周二至周四给京津冀带来强降雨。 "Beijing is expected to receive the strongest rainfall from early Wednesday to Wednesday night," Zhai said, adding that red alerts for heavy rain have been issued in districts such as Fangshan, Daxing, Tongzhou and Mentougou.翟亮说：“北京最强降雨时段预计为周三凌晨至周三夜间。” 他介绍，房山、大兴、通州、门头沟等区已发布暴雨红色预警。 On Monday, the National Meteorological Center continued to issue an orange alert for heavy rain, the second‑highest warning level. Isolated areas in northern Hubei could receive 250 to 270 mm during the 24‑hour period between Monday afternoon and Tuesday afternoon.国家气象中心周一继续发布暴雨橙色预警，这是第二高级别的预警。周一下午至周二下午的 24 小时内，湖北北部局地降雨量可达 250‑270 毫米。 The Ministry of Emergency Management has activated a Level IV flood‑control emergency response in Hebei, Henan, Hubei and Shandong amid rising risks of flooding and geological disasters over the next three days. China has a four‑tier emergency response system for flood control, with Level I being the most severe.未来三天洪涝、地质灾害风险升高，应急管理部针对河北、河南、湖北、山东启动防汛四级应急响应。我国防汛应急响应分为四级，一级为最高级别。 Local governments are being urged to closely monitor updated weather forecasts and strengthen preparations for flooding, landslides, mudslides and urban waterlogging, particularly in mountainous areas and along rivers.相关方面督促地方政府密切跟踪气象预报更新，做好洪涝、山体滑坡、泥石流、城市内涝防范工作，山区、沿河区域需重点防范。 The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs on Monday renewed a warning over the risk of farmland waterlogging. From Monday night through Saturday, parts of Henan could see exceptionally heavy rain, with a very high risk of farmland waterlogging. The prolonged rainfall could leave farmland saturated and affect crop growth.农业农村部周一再次发布农田渍涝风险预警。周一夜间至周六，河南部分地区将遭遇特大暴雨，农田渍涝风险极高。持续降雨会造成农田土壤过湿饱和，影响作物生长。 Farmers are advised to clear drainage channels, as well as prepare pumps and other equipment and supplies in advance. After the rain, farmers should promptly drain excess water, improve soil aeration and moisture conditions, and use pesticides and fertilizers to help crops recover and resume their growth.建议农户疏通排水渠道，提前备好水泵等物资设备。降雨过后，农户应及时排涝，改善土壤通气与墒情，施用农药化肥助力作物恢复生长。 After Thursday, the rainfall pattern is expected to shift as the residual vortex gradually moves eastward and southward, forecasters said. If the residual vortex redevelops around Aug 16, it could bring another round of heavy rainfall to northeastern China, they added.预报人员表示，周四以后，随着残余涡旋逐步向东南移动，降雨格局将发生转变。预报补充，若该残余涡旋在 8 月 16 日前后再度发展，或将给我国东北地区带来新一轮强降雨。 typhoon /taɪˈfuːn/n. 台风remnant /ˈremnənt/n. 残余；剩余部分waterlogging /ˈwɔːtəlɒɡɪŋ/n. 涝灾；积水vortex /ˈvɔːteks/n. 涡旋；漩涡

    英语新闻丨自动驾驶汽车安全新规正式对外公布

    China has announced its first mandatory national safety standard for Level 3 and Level 4 autonomous vehicles, tightening safety requirements for selfdriving cars in the world's largest automotive market. 中国出台首部适用于3级、4级自动驾驶车辆的强制性国家安全标准，在全球规模最大的汽车市场收紧自动驾驶汽车的安全规定。 The safety requirements for automated driving systems of intelligent connected vehicles, which will take effect on July 1, 2027, have been approved by the State Administration for Market Regulation and the National Standardization Administration. The rules were introduced on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on Tuesday. 这份《智能网联汽车 自动驾驶系统安全要求》已于国家市场监督管理总局、国家标准化管理委员会获批，将于2027年7月1日正式施行；该规定于周二在工业和信息化部官网对外发布。 Unlike previous driver assistance technologies, the L3 automated driving system enables vehicles to take over certain driving tasks under specific conditions, while still requiring human intervention. The L4 system can perform driving tasks without human input in designated environments. 和以往的驾驶员辅助技术不同，3级自动驾驶系统可在特定工况下接管部分驾驶操作，但依旧需要人类随时介入；4级自动驾驶系统能够在划定运行区域内，无需人为操控便可完成全部驾驶任务。 According to the new requirements, automated driving systems must achieve an equivalent safety level to that of a qualified and attentive human driver performing the same dynamic driving tasks while avoiding unnecessary risks to passengers and other road users. 新规提出，自动驾驶系统执行动态驾驶任务时，安全水准须等同于一名资质合格、注意力集中的驾驶人，同时需要规避给车内乘员以及其他道路参与者带来多余风险。 The standard introduces clearer requirements for humanmachine interaction, which has become an increasingly important issue as drivers shift between automated and manual control. 该标准针对人机交互制定了更为明晰的规范；当驾驶员在自动驾驶、人工操控之间来回切换时，人机交互现已成为愈发关键的难题。 For L3 vehicles, manufacturers must equip their systems with driver takeover monitoring to ensure that motorists are able to resume control when requested. Vehicles must also provide clear information regarding when automated driving is ready, activated or disengaged. If a human driver fails to respond to a takeover request, the vehicle must automatically execute a minimumrisk maneuver, which is a predefined sequence designed to bring the vehicle to the safest possible state. 针对3级自动驾驶车辆，车企必须搭载驾驶员接管监测系统，保证驾驶人收到接管提示之后可以顺利拿回车辆控制权。车辆还需要清晰提示自动驾驶待命、开启以及退出的状态。倘若驾驶员没有响应接管提醒，车辆需要自动执行最低风险处置操作；该预设操作流程可以令车辆进入风险最低的运行状态。 Rao Qing, chief architect for global solutions at the autonomous driving company Momenta, said, "The release of the mandatory national standard marks the beginning of a new phase for China's autonomous driving industry, where largescale commercialization is built on safety and clear regulatory benchmarks." 自动驾驶企业毫末智行全球方案总架构师饶晴表示：“这项强制性国标落地，标志着国内自动驾驶行业迈入全新阶段，行业规模化商业化，今后将建立在安全保障与清晰的监管准则之上。” Since the beginning of the year, regulators have introduced standards relating to simulation testing, vehicle communications and Level 2 driverassistance systems, as well as mandatory safety requirements for higher levels of automation, resulting in one of the most comprehensive regulatory frameworks for selfdriving vehicles in the country. 今年开年至今，监管部门陆续出台仿真测试、车载通信、2级驾驶辅助系统相关标准，同时推出高阶自动驾驶强制安全规范，搭建起国内一套完备度靠前的自动驾驶汽车监管体系。 Last year, China granted conditional approval to its first L3 autonomous passenger vehicles and positioned intelligent driving as a key area of development. 去年我国有条件准许首批3级自动驾驶乘用车投产上路，并将智能驾驶划定为重点发展赛道。 The latest data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology shows that in the first half of this year, 70.5 percent of new passenger vehicles sold in China were equipped with L2 combined driver assistance systems, which means that roughly seven out of every 10 new vehicles were equipped with such technology. 工信部最新数据显示：今年上半年，国内售出的全新乘用车当中，70.5%搭载有2级组合驾驶辅助系统，相当于每十台新车大约有七台配备该技术。 However, some industry experts said that fewer than 10 percent of L2equipped vehicle owners have actually activated or used the driver assistance functions. 但多名业内专家称，搭载2级辅助驾驶的车主里，实际开启、使用该辅助功能的人数占比不足一成。 Jiang Han, a senior researcher at the think tank Pangoal, said: "The new mandatory national standard marks a fundamental shift in China's regulation for autonomous driving — from giving emerging technologies room to develop, to imposing hard requirements to ensure safety. It will also promote the healthy development of China's autonomous driving market, as it continues to develop at a rapid speed." 盘古智库高级研究员江瀚谈到：“全新强制性国标代表我国自动驾驶监管思路发生根本性转变：从给新兴技术留出发展空间，转向硬性规定保障行车安全。在国内自动驾驶市场高速扩张的背景之下，该标准同样能够助推行业良性发展。” mandatory /ˈmændətəri/强制的，法定的 autonomous /ɔːˈtɒnəməs/自主的；自动驾驶的 intervention /ˌɪntəˈvenʃn/干预，介入 maneuver /məˈnuːvə(r)/操作，机动处置 simulation /ˌsɪmjuˈleɪʃn/模拟 fundamental /ˌfʌndəˈmentl/根本的，基础的

    英语新闻丨中国出台措施反制美国限制

    China announced on Wednesday a raft of measures in response to restrictions imposed on Chinese companies by the United States, including placing six US entities on its countermeasure list, imposing tighter export controls on drones and related technologies, and launching a national security review into imported printers and copiers. 中国8月5日宣布了一系列措施，以回应美国对中国企业施加的限制，包括将六家美国实体列入反制清单、对无人机及相关技术实施更严格的出口管制，并对进口打印和复印设备启动国家安全审查。 A Ministry of Commerce spokesperson said in a statement that the countermeasures were a necessary response to Washington's continued expansion of restrictions under the pretext of national security. China urges the US to immediately withdraw relevant restrictions, stop its wrongful actions and return to the right track of resolving differences through friendly consultation and cooperation, the statement added.商务部发言人在一份声明中表示，这些反制措施是针对美方以国家安全为由不断扩大限制的必要回应。声明还称，中方敦促美方立即撤销相关限制措施，停止错误做法，回到通过友好协商与合作解决分歧的正确轨道上来。 The spokesperson warned that China would take more countermeasures if the US insists on introducing new restrictions targeting Chinese entities.发言人警告说，如果美方坚持针对中国企业出台新的限制措施，中方将采取更多反制举措。 Since the meeting between the two heads of state in Busan, South Korea, last year, the US Federal Communications Commission has repeatedly introduced restrictive measures targeting Chinese companies despite Beijing's firm opposition and calls from business communities in both countries for cooperation, the spokesperson said.发言人表示，自去年两国元首在韩国釜山会晤以来，美国联邦通信委员会不顾中方的坚决反对以及两国商界对合作的呼吁，多次出台针对中国企业的限制措施。 The US has continued to overstretch the concept of national security, with its measures covering areas including telecommunications operators, testing laboratories, drones, consumer routers and submarine cables, and it has recently imposed import curbs on advanced robotics equipment and power inverters.美方持续泛化国家安全概念，限制措施涵盖电信运营商、检测实验室、无人机、消费级路由器和海底光缆等领域，并于近期对先进机器人设备和电力逆变器实施了进口限制。 To safeguard China's national security and interests, the ministry said that export controls on drone-related dual-use items destined for the US will be tightened, requiring case-by-case reviews for exports of drones, key components and related technologies, which will not be eligible for license facilitation measures, effective immediately.为维护国家安全和利益，商务部表示，对美出口的无人机相关两用物项将实施更严格的出口管制，对无人机、关键部件及相关技术的出口实施逐案审查，不适用许可便利化措施，即日生效。 As six US entities have assisted and supported illegal US sanctions related to the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, they will be prohibited from engaging in relevant transactions, cooperation and other activities with organizations and individuals in China, effective immediately, the ministry said.商务部表示，由于六家美国实体协助和支持了美国非法涉疆制裁，将禁止其与中国境内组织和个人进行相关交易、合作及其他活动，即日生效。 Also on Wednesday, the National Certification and Accreditation Administration said it would suspend, with immediate effect, follow-up factory inspections conducted by US certification agencies on behalf of designated China Compulsory Certification bodies.同一天，国家认证认可监督管理委员会表示，将暂停美国认证机构受指定中国强制性产品认证机构委托开展的后续工厂检查，即日生效。 The ministry spokesperson said China's countermeasures were "overall restrained" and reflected its desire to preserve the hard-won stability of China-US economic and trade relations.商务部发言人表示，中方的反制措施“总体上是克制的”，反映了中方维护来之不易的中美经贸关系稳定局面的意愿。 Experts noted that the countermeasures are aimed at protecting China's legitimate interests while avoiding further escalation of trade tensions. They emphasized that dialogue and rules-based cooperation remain essential for maintaining stability in global supply chains.专家指出，这些反制措施旨在保护中国的合法权益，同时避免贸易紧张局势进一步升级。他们强调，对话和基于规则的合作对于维护全球供应链稳定仍然至关重要。 John Quelch, executive vice-chancellor and a distinguished professor of social science at Duke Kunshan University in Jiangsu province, said a stable international trading system benefits not only exporters and investors, but also consumers and workers worldwide.昆山杜克大学执行副校长、杰出社会科学教授约翰·奎尔奇表示，稳定的国际贸易体系不仅惠及出口商和投资者，也惠及全球消费者和劳动者。 The ministry also announced on Wednesday the launch of a national security investigation into imported office equipment with printing and copying functions that are equipped with foreign system software, marking China's first such probe under its foreign trade law.商务部8月5日还宣布，对进口的配备外国系统软件的具有打印、复印功能的办公设备启动国家安全调查，这是中国首次依据对外贸易法开展此类调查。 Shi Xiaoli, a professor of international economic law at China University of Political Science and Law in Beijing, said the move shows China's efforts to build a systematic and institutional framework to address trade-related risks.中国政法大学国际经济法教授史晓丽表示，此举显示了中国在构建系统性、制度性框架以应对贸易相关风险方面的努力。 overstretch /ˌəʊvəˈstretʃ/过度延伸，泛化 telecommunications /ˌtelɪkəˌmjuːnɪˈkeɪʃənz/电信 submarine cables /ˌsʌbməˈriːn ˈkeɪbəlz/海底光缆 power inverters /ˈpaʊər ɪnˈvɜːtəz/电力逆变器 dual-use items /ˈdjuːəl juːz ˈaɪtəmz/两用物项 case-by-case review /keɪs baɪ keɪs rɪˈvjuː/逐案审查 eligible /ˈelɪdʒəbəl/有资格的

    英语新闻丨中方对日本防卫白皮书表示强烈谴责

    Japan's accelerating remilitarization has become a serious factor threatening regional peace and stability, the Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday, urging the international community to stay on high alert and push back against the trend. 外交部于周三表态，日本不断加快再军事化进程已然成为威胁地区和平稳定的重大隐患，呼吁国际社会保持高度警惕，抵制这一不良动向。 Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian made the remarks in response to the Defense of Japan 2026 white paper, which continues to trumpet the development of longrange offensive capabilities and new ways of warfare while even packaging Japan's rearmament as a growth driver. 外交部发言人林健针对日本2026年版《防卫白皮书》作出以上回应。该白皮书依旧大肆鼓吹发展远程进攻战力与新型作战模式，甚至将日本重整军备包装成经济增长动力。 All these moves once again expose the truth behind Japan's claim of being a "peaceful nation", Lin said in a statement released on the ministry's official website. 外交部官网刊发的声明当中，林健讲到，以上种种举动再次揭开日本所谓“和平国家”说辞之下的真面目。 The white paper identifies China as Japan's "greatest strategic challenge" and presents defense investment as beneficial to the country's economy and society. 这份白皮书将中国定性为日本“最大战略挑战”，还宣称防卫投入能够为本国经济与社会带来益处。 Citing what it describes as intensifying activities by the Chinese military in the region surrounding Japan, the document calls for a response drawing on Japan's comprehensive national power and cooperation with its ally, likeminded countries and others. 白皮书捏造中国军方在日本周边活动愈发频繁的说辞，声称要调动日本综合国力，并联合盟友、理念相近国家以及其余各方作出应对。 China deplores and firmly rejects the white paper and has lodged serious representations with Japan, Lin said. 林健表示，中方强烈谴责并且坚决反对该白皮书，已经向日方提出严正交涉。 Taiwan's status reaffirmed 重申台湾的地位 The spokesman said that the document once again targets China with groundless accusations, rehashes the socalled "China threat" and grossly interferes in China's internal affairs with brazen comments on China's Taiwan region. 该发言人表明，白皮书再度无端指责中国、翻炒“中国威胁论”，还针对中国台湾地区发表放肆言论，粗暴干涉我国内政。 China is committed to peaceful development and a national defense policy that is defensive in nature, and its military activities are just and valid, Lin said. 林健称，中国坚持走和平发展道路，奉行防御性国防政策，我方一切军事行动正当合法。 "Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory. The Taiwan question is entirely China's internal affair. How to resolve it is a matter for the Chinese ourselves, and Japan is in no place to interfere," he said. 他指出：“台湾是中国领土不可分割的一部分，台湾问题纯属中国内政。该问题如何解决由中国人自己决定，日方无权插手。” The Diaoyu Islands and its affiliated islands have been China's territory since ancient times, and this fact will never change no matter what the Japanese side says or does, he added. 他补充说明，钓鱼岛及其附属岛屿自古以来便是中国领土，无论日方如何言行，这一事实永远不会动摇。 Noting that Japanese militarists once inflicted immense suffering on Asia and the world and committed untold crimes, Lin emphasized that Japan has not only failed to reflect on that history, but has also kept speeding up remilitarization, breaching its own Constitution and international and domestic laws and challenging the postwar international order. 林健谈及昔日日本军国主义带给亚洲乃至全世界深重苦难、犯下罄竹难书的罪行；他着重强调，日本非但没有反省历史，反而持续加速再军事化，违背本国宪法、国内外法规，挑衅战后国际秩序。 "We urge Japan to deeply repent for its historical crimes, learn the lessons of history, stop cooking up justifications for its military buildup and step back from the wrong path," Lin said. 林健说道：“我方敦促日本深刻忏悔历史罪责、吸取历史教训，不要再为扩充军力编造借口，及时从错误道路上抽身。” In recent years, Japan has accelerated its military buildup by increasing defense spending, acquiring longrange missiles and strengthening joint operations. In April, it revised its arms export rules to allow, in principle, the export of lethal weapons, while senior Japanese officials have also left open the possibility of reviewing the country's Three NonNuclear Principles. 近些年来，日本通过抬高防卫预算、购置远程导弹、强化联合作战加快军备扩张。今年四月日本修改武器出口规章，原则上准许出口杀伤性武器；日本高层官员也放出风声，有可能重新研讨无核三原则。 The Foreign Ministry has repeatedly said that these moves go beyond Japan's postwar exclusively defenseoriented policy and jeopardize regional peace and stability. 外交部多次表态，这类举动已经逾越日本战后专守防卫政策的边界，会危及地区和平与安定。 deplore /dɪˈplɔː(r)/强烈谴责；悲叹 remilitarization /ˌriːmɪlɪtəraɪˈzeɪʃn/再军事化 trumpet /ˈtrʌmpɪt/大肆宣扬，鼓吹 inalienable /ɪnˈeɪliənəbl/不可分割的、不可剥夺的 inflict /ɪnˈflɪkt/造成（伤害、苦难） jeopardize /ˈdʒepədaɪz/危及，损害
