上海浦東國際機場工作人員在檢查入境人員的健康證明(圖片來源:中新網(wǎng))
對此,外交部發(fā)言人汪文斌在例行發(fā)布會上回應(yīng)表示:
The notices issued by the Chinese embassies in the relevant countries have made it clear that this is a temporary response necessitated by the current situation of COVID-19.
中國駐有關(guān)國家使館發(fā)布的通知,已經(jīng)明確說明,這是中方為應(yīng)對當(dāng)前疫情,不得已采取的臨時性措施。
【單詞講解】
這里的necessitate是necessary的動詞形式,根據(jù)不同的語境可以表示make necessary(使...變得必要)或者force(迫使)等意思,比如:Business was growing, which necessitated the hiring of additional employees.(生意越來越好,需要多雇點人手了)。
Learning from other countries' practices and taking into consideration the evolving epidemic situation, we have adjusted measures concerning pertinent travelers to China.
中方借鑒了多國做法,根據(jù)疫情形勢變化,調(diào)整對有關(guān)人員來華的做法。
【知識點】
這里的taking into consideration the evolving epidemic situation正常的語序應(yīng)該是taking the evolving epidemic situation into consideration,即:考慮到疫情形勢變化,take something into consideration是我們常見的一個短語。之所以把the evolving epidemic situation放在短語的后面,是因為這部分有點長,放在短語中間會顯得前后不平衡。
This is a reasonable and legitimate move consistent with international customary practices, and I believe it will be understood by all.
這合情合理,也符合國際慣例,相信能夠得到大家的理解。
The Chinese embassies in relevant countries will publish timely notices in accordance with the evolving situation.
根據(jù)疫情形勢變化,中國駐有關(guān)國家使館將及時發(fā)布通知。
