      West Highlands worst in UK for broadband, MPs find
        英国宽带最糟糕的地方在哪里?
    The parliamentary constituency of Ross, Skye and Lochaber is the worst area
in the UK for broadband, new figures show.
    最新数据显示,Ross、Skye和Lochaber的议会选区是英国宽带最糟糕的地区。
    A total of 65.6% of connections in the rural constituency were below the UK
government’s proposed minimum standard of 10 megabits per second (Mb/s).
    在较偏远的选区,65.6%的网速低于英国政府的最低标准10mb / s(Mb / s)。
    Scotland had eight of the 20 worst performing areas, according to analysis
by the British Infrastructure Group of MPs.
    根据英国基础设施小组的分析,苏格兰有8个地区比较糟糕。
    It was closely followed by Wales with seven.
    紧随其后的是威尔士,有7个地区。
    MPs’ analysis of download speed data recorded by Ofcom in 2016 found
Scotland had the four worst performing parliamentary constituencies in the
UK.
    英国通信管理局在2016年记录的下载速度数据的分析发现,苏格兰在英国的议会选区中表现最差。
    More than 60% of connections in three other Scottish constituencies - Na
h-Eileanan an Iar, Argyll and Bute and Orkney and Shetland - failed to reach
download speeds of 10 Mb/s.
    在其他三个苏格兰选区,有超过60%的宽带没有达到10 Mb / s的下载速度。
    Kingston upon Hull East was the worst constituency in England for download
speeds, with 56.8% of connections failing to hit the government’s proposed
universal service obligation.
    金斯顿是Hull East 下载速度最差的地区,有56.8%的宽带未能达到政府提出的最低要求。
    A Scottish Government spokeswoman said: "We are committed to delivering
100% superfast broadband access across Scotland by 2021.
    苏格兰政府的一位女发言人说:“我们承诺到2021年在苏格兰地区提供100%超高速宽带接入。”
    "This is the most ambitious commitment in the UK - focusing on delivery of
speeds over 30mbps - whilst there is still no clarity from the UK government on
how they intend to implement the proposed Universal Service Obligation for
broadband - which will deliver just 10mbps.
    “他们甚至还承诺努力将传输提高到30mbp/s,这个承诺有些夸张了,况且,英国政府还不知道究竟如何实现最低要求,也就是提供10mbp/s的速度。”
    "Alongside our partners, we have invested over 410m pounds in the Digital
Scotland Superfast Broadband programme and are on track to deliver fibre
broadband access to at least 95% of premises across Scotland by end 2017, and
that thanks to the programme around 780,000 premises have been connected to
fibre."
    “联合我们的合作伙伴,我们投资了41千万英镑在苏格兰超高速宽带计划上,有望在2017年年底完成光纤宽带接入至少95%的计划,这也多亏了约780000人已经连接到宽带,这个计划才有可能实现。”
