1 China Helped with Denmark’s Oysters

丹麥“蠔”滿為患，中國出“口”相救

Around 500 tonnes[公噸]of oysters[牡蠣，生蠔]have invaded[侵入]Denmark’s shores, but China may eat its way to help them.

Jokingly[開玩笑地], Denmark’s embassy[大使館]in China turned to social media, inviting Chinese tourists to eat the oysters. They posted[發(fā)帖]in late April on Weibo about the oyster problem and received more than 15,000 responses[回應].

Some people said to “eat them to extinction[滅絕].” Some even asked for free trips or an “eaters visa[簽證]” to Denmark. Companies like Alibaba and Jingdong offered help.

500公噸左右的生蠔侵占了丹麥的海岸，不過中國食客們說不定能出“口”相救。

丹麥駐中國大使館開玩笑地向社交媒體“求救”，邀請中國游客到丹麥吃生蠔。四月底，他們在微博上發(fā)出關于生蠔泛濫的微博，并收到了一萬五千多條回復。

一些人戲稱“將它們（生蠔）吃到滅絕”。有些人甚至想要免費丹麥游或是去丹麥的“食客簽證”。阿里巴巴、京東等企業(yè)也紛紛伸出了援手。

4 China Will Launch Wikipedia Rival in 2018

中國將于2018年推出在線百科全書

China is to use an online national encyclopaedia[百科全書]next year, to compete with[與……競爭]Wikipedia[維基百科].

Officials said more than 20,000 people will work on the project. There will be 300,000 entries[詞條]. Each entry will have about 1,000 words.

Unlike Wikipedia, it will be created by selected[精選的]scholars[學者]from staterun[公辦的]universities, rather than being openly editable[可編輯的]by volunteers.

“The Encyclopaedia of China is not a book, but a Great Wall of culture,” said Yang Muzhi, the editor-in-chief[主編]of the project.

中國將在明年啟動一個全國性的在線百科全書，要與維基百科一爭高下。

官方人員稱，將有兩萬多人參與本次項目。百科全書將收錄三十萬個詞條，每個詞條約有一千字。

與維基百科不同的是，它將由選拔自公辦高校的優(yōu)秀學者們來撰寫詞條，而非由志愿者進行公開編輯。

“《中國百科全書》不是一本書，而是一座文化萬里長城，”此次項目的主編楊牧之說道。

5 Fidget Spinners Become a New Craze Across Many Countries

指尖陀螺風靡數(shù)國

At the beginning, fidget spinners were made as tools for children with autism[自閉癥]and ADHD[注意力缺陷多動癥]. But now, they become very popular among students and in the social media.

A fidget spinner is a three-pronged[有尖頭的], palm-sized[手掌大小的]piece of plastic[塑料]or metal[金屬]. It spins around a bearing[軸承]in the center. As the spinner spins, it can be balanced on top of fingers, toes, or even the nose or forehead. There are YouTube videos showing how to do tricks[把戲]with it. And they attract millions of views. Many kids just can’t put the spinners down.

But to teachers, fidget spinners become a classroom distraction[分心的事物]. So they are being banned[禁止]at many schools.

起初，指尖陀螺是一種用于治療患有自閉癥和注意力缺陷多動癥的兒童的工具。不過現(xiàn)在，指尖陀螺在學生群體中和社交媒體上非常流行。

指尖陀螺是一種三齒狀的、手掌大小的塑料或金屬件。它繞著一個中心軸承轉(zhuǎn)動。當指尖陀螺旋轉(zhuǎn)時，它可以平衡地放在指尖、腳尖，甚至是鼻子或額頭上。YouTube上有許多視頻教授其玩法技巧，吸引了數(shù)百萬的觀看量。許多孩子簡直已是指尖陀螺不離手。

然而對于教師而言，指尖陀螺卻成為了課堂的干擾。因此，許多學校已經(jīng)禁止學生玩指尖陀螺。
