Oct 19 双语新闻精选：秋天到日本去赏樱？！你真的(🤫)没听错……

Cherry blossoms in October

日本樱花(🙈)罕见反季绽放

The start of the cherry blossom season in Japan normally takes place in March/April. This year, however, something truly bizarrehas taken place: the cherry blossoms have made an appearance in October.

日本的樱花盛(😚)开季通常从3/4月份开始。但今年却出现了异乎寻常的景象：樱花在10月竞相开放。

According to WNI, a Japanese meteorologywebsite, there have been 354 reported cases of cherry blossoms across the nation so far, from the moresub-tropicalshores ofKyushuto the chillierrealmsofHokkaido. According to WNI, as spotted by NHK World meteorologist Sayaka Mori, it appears that typhoons areto blame.

日本气象网(📪)站WNI称，从偏向亚热带气候的九州(👡)海岸到更为寒冷的北海道地区，迄今日本全国有354地报告有樱(🎰)花盛开的情况。WNI称，在日本放送协会国际台气象专家森早矢香看来，台风似乎是秋季樱花(🙉)开放的"罪魁祸首"。

In the summer, when the bulk of plant growth protein, known as FT, release is happening, the leaves also release hormonesinto the buds that stop them accidentally flowering too soon. The typhoons that have recentlyslammed intoJapan, however, have thrown powerful winds their way, stripping many of these leaves from the trees.

夏季，促进(🧟)植物生长的蛋白FT大量(💕)释放，叶片也同时向花蕾释放(🐀)阻止其意外过早绽放的激素。不过最近袭击日本的台风携着狂风一路横扫，使(⏱)树上许多叶片脱落。

Salt, dragged upfrom the ocean, has also damaged many remaining leaves. This, it is thought, is why there's been a highly unusual October bloom. Without the leaves releasing thesuppressanthormones, the middling temperatures in autumn are similar to those of spring's, which has tricked the cherry trees into erupting into color.

此外，从海水中带来的盐损伤了许多残存的叶子。这被认为是出现(🏥)非常罕见的10月开花的原因。没了释放抑制开花激素的叶子，秋季(🚲)不温不火的气温与春季类似，樱花树"被骗"突然开花。

Cyclists face cellphone ban

荷(📋)兰禁止(🤢)骑行者看手机

Using a mobile phone while cycling is to be banned in the Netherlands amid mountingsafety fears in a country where bikesoutnumberpeople. A draft law scheduled to take effect next July will extend an existing 2002 ban on car and lorry drivers using their mobile phones at the wheel unless inhands-freemode to "the use of a mobile electronic device while driving any vehicle (including a bicycle)".

荷兰的自行车比人还多，令人们(🍲)对安全隐患的担忧渐增，因此荷兰将禁止骑车时用手机。荷兰2002年已出台禁令，禁止汽车和卡车司机开车时用手机(免提模式除外)，一项将于明年7月生效的法律草案将在此基础(😈)上把禁令修改为禁止"在驾驶任何(💙)车(🌺)辆(包括自行车)时使用移动电子设备"。

The Dutch transport minister, Cora van Nieuwenhuizen, said the law was needed because the advent of social media and unlimited mobile data had changed how people used smartphones and the time they spent on them.

"The fact is that whenever you're on the road you should be paying full attention and not doing anything at all on a phone."
