China’s bullet trains expedited to world top speed
厉害了我的国!中国高铁达到世界最高速
China on Thursday speeded up its new generation bullet train, the Fuxing,
on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, shortening travel time on the
1,250-kilometer route to just four hours and 30 minutes.
周四，中国对京沪高铁的新一代高速列车“复兴号”进行了提速，全程1250公里的路程，仅需4小时30分钟。
The Fuxing trains, which were entirely designed and manufactured in China,
are capable of reaching a top speed of 400 km/h. They made their debut in June,
and were tested for safety and reliability at max speed in July.
中国自主设计和制造的复兴号列车最高时速能够达到每小时400公里。他们在6月首次亮相，并在7月份以最高速度测试了安全性和可靠性。
According to Chinanews.com, the trains will make seven round-trips a day
starting from Sept. 21, and will serve as the world’s fastest commercially-used
bullet train.
据中新网报道，从9月21日起，列车将每天进行7次往返，并将成为世界上最快的商用子弹头列车。
China first ran trains at 350 km/h in August 2008, but reduced speeds to
250-300 km/h in 2011 following a train collision near the city of Wenzhou that
killed 40 people and injured 191, Xinhua reported.
据新华社报道，中国第一次以350公里/小时运行的列车出现在2008年8月，但2011年在温州附近发生一起造成40人死亡、191人受伤的火车相撞事故后，降至250
- 300公里/小时。
“The Fuxing trains are quite comfortable and neat. Most importantly,
passengers have Wi-Fi access and can charge their electronic devices via
traditional or USB sockets,” said Sun Chenghao, a scholar from the China
Institute of Contemporary International Relations.
“复兴号列车非常舒适和整洁。”更关键的是，乘客可以使用wi - fi，可以通过传统或USB接口给他们的电子设备充电。
China has the world’s longest high-speed rail network of over 22,000
kilometers, about 60 percent of the world’s total.
中国拥有世界上最长的高速铁路网，超过22000公里，占世界的60%。
Around one-third of China’s high-speed railways were designed to allow
trains to run at a speed of 350 km/h, according to He Huawu of the China Academy
of Engineering.
据中国工程院的何华武表示，中国大约三分之一的高速铁路被设计为允许列车以350公里/小时的速度运行。
