神秘的石油泄漏污染海灘，巴西正在清理

Brazil's tourism minister said Friday (October 25) that beaches that were affected by the mysterious oily sludge that has plagued the northeastern coast of the country have been cleaned and are once again fit for tourists.

巴西旅游部長(zhǎng)星期五(10月25日)說(shuō)，受困擾巴西東北部海岸的神秘油泥影響的海灘已經(jīng)被清理干凈，再次適合游客前往。

Brazil's government said Monday (October 21) that it had collected more than 600 tonnes of oil from its northeastern beaches since September 12.

巴西政府周一(10月21日)表示，自9月12日以來(lái)，已從巴西東北部海灘收集了600多噸石油。

"We know that there are beaches that were impacted and which were cleaned and are now fit [for public use]. Less than 10 percent of the beaches of Pernambuco were impacted by the oil. Today, some of those beaches are now clean and in full condition to receive tourists.

“我們知道有些海灘受到了影響，已經(jīng)被清理干凈，現(xiàn)在適合(公共使用)。伯南布哥不到10%的海灘受到石油的影響。如今，這些海灘中的一些已經(jīng)清潔干凈，完全可以接待游客。

“我們知道有些海灘受到了影響，經(jīng)過(guò)清理，現(xiàn)在適合(公眾使用)。伯南布哥不到10%的海灘受到了石油的影響。如今，這些海灘中的一些已經(jīng)清潔干凈，完全可以接待游客。”

"And, that's what we want to responsibly show: that the very beaches that were impacted and cleaned are available for tourism."

“而且，這正是我們要負(fù)責(zé)任地表明的：那些受到影響和清潔的海灘也可以用于旅游。”

Oil has been washing up on the shores of northeastern Brazil for two months. More than 200 locations along the coast have been affected, threatening marine life, authorities said.

兩個(gè)月來(lái)，巴西東北部海岸一直被石油沖刷。當(dāng)局表示，沿岸200多個(gè)地點(diǎn)受到影響，威脅到海洋生物。

Brazil's government has said the oil spill is Venezuelan in origin, but has mostly stopped short of blaming their socialist government for the incident. Venezuela has denied it is to blame.

巴西政府曾表示，石油泄漏的源頭是委內(nèi)瑞拉，但基本上沒(méi)有將事故歸咎于其社會(huì)主義政府。委內(nèi)瑞拉否認(rèn)對(duì)此負(fù)責(zé)。
