17
年前因
在抗击
“
非典
”
中
“
敢讲真话
”
而家喻户晓的
83
岁钟南山院士，如今再次成为中
国抗击新一波冠状病毒的公众形象。
备注：几个横线词汇理解。
Despite his advanced age, Zhong was
appointed to lead the investigation into the new
virus,
which has rattled millions of
Chinese who are traveling for the week-long Lunar
New Year
holiday.
His
announcement
on
Monday
that
the
virus
could
spread
between
humans
1
ratcheted up worries about the
outbreak, after which Beijing has warned officials
of public
shame if they cover up any
infections.
正逢长达一周的春节假期，
新型病毒
的爆发让数百万春运中的中国民众惴惴不安。
尽管
年事已高，钟
南山仍临危受命，牵头调查此次疫情。钟南山于周一宣布该病毒存在
“
< br>人
传人
”
的现象，加剧了人们对
疫情的担忧。此后中央政府警告官员，如瞒报任何感染病
例，他们将被钉在耻辱柱上。<
/p>
备注：
de
spite
是介词，如果后面跟得内容很长，可以用在
desp
ite the fact
that
……（同
位语从句说明）
官员应该先解决问题，而不是
先担心乌纱帽的问题。
That marks a departure from 2003, when
in an atmosphere of fear and suspicion, Zhong, a
respiratory
diseases
specialist,
gave
media
his
candid,
pessimistic
assessment
of
the
severity
of the SARS crisis.
这与
2003
年的情况有所不同：当时，在充满恐惧和猜疑的气氛中，身为呼吸系统疾病
< br>专家的钟南山坦率地向媒体透露了他对于
SARS
危机严
重程度的悲观估计。
备注：
departure
离开，这里一个新的用法，
departure from= be different from
candidate
那时候候选人
要穿白色的袍子，所以
candid
理解为
坦诚的，坦率地。
03
年的非典，
就说明了
不要瞒报
不要漏报。
吃野生动物，防疫人员没
有引起重视，
当地的不积极作为。所以
钟南山一发声，大家都听得进呢
?
“
有信则猛，无私生智“。
一个人如果内心有信念，就会变得勇
敢，没有私心，就能产生解决问题的好办法。
Zhong was hailed for his integrity and
has remained a public figure ever since, weighing
in
on public health issues such as air
pollution and food safety.
钟南山因其直言不讳而广受
赞誉，并自此成为一个公众人物，不断为空气污染和食品安
全等公共卫生问题而发声。<

备注：
be hailed
for=be praised for sth.
