“因为我们是做纺织品的，纺织品它有个特点，不光是看衣服，你要摸它的手感，你要看它具体的颜色。所以我们也是迫不急待地把我们的衣服带到客户面前给他们看。”

“We are in the textile business. When buying our products, a buyer needs to touch them and see the colors in person. So we can’t wait to show our products to our clients.”

2.SHANGHAI CIRCUIT IS READY TO HOST F1 GRAND PRIX

F1中国站2024年将回归上海赛车场

Shanghai InternationalCircuit【赛车道】 said it is ready to accommodate motor race-fans from around the world, as the track has obtained the Grand One Circuit License from theFederation【联盟】 of International Automobiles. That means the venue is prepared for the Formula one Chinese Grand Prix next year.

上海国际赛车场表示，已准备好迎接来自世界各地的赛车迷。上赛道已获得国际汽联一级赛道认证，具备举办2024年F1比赛资格。。

The previousthree-year licenseexpired at the end of 2019. The circuit said curves and corners can be reconfigured into nine tracks to host different races. Juss Sports, the F1 Grand Prix organizer and the circuit manager said in addition to the refreshing of the grand-stand seats, maintenance and repair work has been completed, including the track surface, the partial repair of tire walls and the repainting of the underground connecting tunnel. A round of final checks will be conducted by FIA in March2024.

上一轮赛道认证有效期为三年，并于2019年底到期。赛车场表示赛道的弯道和转角可以进行调整，形成九种不同组合的赛道，以便举行不同的比赛。F1大奖赛承办方久事赛事表示，除了看台座更新外，维修工作也已完成，其中包括赛道表面、部分轮胎墙的修复以及地下连接通道的重新粉刷。国际汽联将于2024年3月进行终审。

3.SOLAR-POWERED WATER MONITORING STATION OPENS ON LOW-CARBON DAY

全国低碳日上海市首座“零碳水质监测站”启用

The city’s first zero-carbon water monitoring facility opened today tocoincide【同时发生】 with National Low Carbon Day, which also happens to be the third day of the National Energy Efficiency Promotion Week. The facility is along the Huangpu River in Yangpu District. Sun Siqi has the story.

7月12日，恰逢全国低碳日，同时也是全国节能宣传周的第三天，申城首座“零碳水质监测站”在杨浦区黄浦江畔正式启用。记者孙思奇带来详细报道。

This water quality monitoring facility near Yangpu Bridge runs entirely on solar power.

这座位于杨浦大桥旁的水质监测站完全由太阳能供电，可实现“自给自足”。

It was once the site of a sewer pump station. Now on a sunny day, the solar cells generate power for the monitoring system that tracks more than 30 water quality parameters【参数】. Any unused power is stored in lithium-ion batteries and hydrogenfuel cells -- an advanced system that is still rare nationwide.

监测站由原上海电站辅机厂污水泵房改造而成。晴天时，太阳能电池为监测系统供电，该水质监测系统可监测30多项水质参数。剩余电能将被储存到锂电池和氢燃料电池中。这样先进的水质监测系统在全国范围内仍属罕见。

“我们可以看到磷酸铁锂（锂电池）充电这块，现在电流是10.7安，就说明储能系统在接受光伏发电的储能（充满可以维持多少天），我们自动监测站设定的目标是10天。”

As you can see the electric current reading is 10.7 amperes, meaning the power storage system is absorbing energy from the solar cells. Our target is for the cells to provide up to 10 days of power when fully charged.

The underground display area has a vent similar to a chimney. The capillary air-conditioning system works like an AC unit embedded in the walls.

地下展示区有一个类似于烟囱的通气孔。这里的毛细管空调系统就相当于一个内置于墙体的空调系统。

“这里是留了一些毛细展示墙面，毛细系统是比普通的空调系统节能在40%到60%。”

“This is what capillary tubes look like in the wall. They use 40 to 60 percent less energy than a normal air-conditioning system.”

The facility began operations today and will host various exhibitions on carbon-reducing practices.

该监测站从今天（07/12）开始运行，并将举办各种关于减碳实践的展览会。

Also, a new wastewater treatment system has opened at a Baosteelsubsidiary. It is expected to cut pollutant discharges by 60 tons a year.

此外，宝钢子公司新建的废水处理系统也已投入使用。预计该系统将使每年的污染物排放减少60吨。

“通过膜处理的技术，把所有的废水经过膜提纯后做成再生水，提纯后的再生水可以在机组里再循环利用。”

“With membrane technology, all wastewater is purified and reused in the machines.”

Authorities say more than 90 percent of wastewater discharged in the districts of Pudong, Baoshan and Chongming are now monitored 24 hours a day.

有关部门表示，浦东、宝山、崇明三区90%的废水排放已实现每天24小时实时监测。
