There is so much to cover.
有太多的内容需要涵盖。
Let us kick things off with our headline story.
让我们从我们的头条新闻开始吧。
The automotive market in China is witnessing a true revolution.
中国的汽车市场正在见证一场真正的革命。
According to the latest retail data, sales of conventional fossil fuel passenger cars plunged by 40 %
根据最新的零售数据，传统化石燃料乘用车的销量暴跌了 40%
in August.
在八月。
Meanwhile, new energy vehicles, or NEVs, recorded a historic milestone, with retail sales reaching
与此同时，新能源汽车（简称 NEV）创下了历史性的里程碑，零售销量达到
over 1 million units, pushing their market penetration rate to a record 65 .2%.
超过 100 万辆，将其市场渗透率推高至创纪录的 65.2%。
Whoa, Chloe, slow down for a second.
哇，克洛伊，稍微等片刻。
65 .2 % penetration rate?
65.2% 的渗透率？
That is a huge number.
那可是一个巨大的数字。
For our English learners, could you explain what penetration rate actually means in this context?
为了我们的英语学习者，你能解释一下在这个语境下渗透率究竟是什么意思吗？
Of course.
当然可以。
Think of a market penetration rate as a slice of a pie.
把市场渗透率想象成一块蛋糕上的切片。
If you have 100 newly registered passenger cars sold in a month, and 65 of them are electric or
如果一个月内售出 100 辆新注册的乘用车，其中 65 辆是电动汽车或
hybrid, then the penetration rate for electric vehicles is 65%.
混合动力汽车，那么电动汽车的渗透率就是 65%。
It simply means electric cars are no longer a niche choice.
这简单来说意味着电动汽车不再是一个小众的选择。
They are now the absolute majority.
它们现在已经占据了绝对的大多数。
Ah, that makes perfect sense.
啊，这完全说得通了。
It is like when smart TVs first came out.
这就像智能电视刚问世的时候一样。
At first, only a few tech fans bought them, but eventually, almost every TV sold became a smart TV.
起初，只有少数科技迷购买它们，但最终，几乎售出的每一台电视都变成了智能电视。
A top executive from BYD even boldly remarked recently that traditional fossil fuel cars simply have
比亚迪的一位高层管理人员最近甚至大胆表示，传统的化石燃料汽车根本
no future in China, especially with the rapid spread of super -fast charging technologies.
在中国没有未来，特别是随着超快充电技术的快速普及。
Indeed, infrastructure is the key.
确实，基础设施是关键。
When charging a car becomes as fast and convenient as filling up a gas tank, the traditional engine
当给汽车充电变得像加满油箱一样快捷和方便时，传统发动机
loses its primary advantage.
就会失去其主要的优势。
This transition is happening much faster than many global experts predicted.
这种转变发生的速度比许多全球专家预测的要快得多。
It really is.
确实是这样。
From the roads to our hospitals, let us transition to our next major story, which focuses on public
从道路到医院，让我们转到下一个重大报道，该报道聚焦于公共
health care.
卫生医疗。
There is some incredibly good news for anyone who has ever had to visit a hospital.
对于任何去过医院的人来说，都有一个极其好的消息。
Yes, this is a highly welcome reform.
是的，这是一项非常受欢迎的改革。
The National Health Commission announced that they have made massive progress in solving a long
国家卫生健康委员会宣布，他们在解决长期
-standing headache, the lack of data sharing between different hospitals.
存在的头疼问题——不同医院之间缺乏数据共享方面取得了重大进展。
Previously, if you got an x -ray or a blood test at Hospital A, and then went to Hospital B for a
以往，如果你在 A 医院做了 X 光检查或抽血化验，然后再去 B 医院求诊
second opinion, Hospital B would often make you do those expensive tests all over again.
寻求二次诊疗意见，B 医院往往会让你重新做一次那些昂贵的检查。
Oh, tell me about it.
唉，别提了。
It is so frustrating.
这真是太令人沮丧了。
You end up being treated like a human pincushion, getting your blood drawn multiple times, not to
你最终会被当成一个人肉针垫，被抽好几次血，更别
mention the extra costs and the long waiting lines.
提额外的费用和漫长的排队等待了。
Why did they do that?
他们为什么要这么做呢？
Mainly because different hospitals used incompatible digital systems, and there was a lack of mutual
主要是因为不同医院使用的是不兼容的数字系统，而且缺乏相互的
trust regarding test standards.
针对检查标准的信任。
But now, 98 % of cities in China have established systems for mutual recognition of medical examinations.
但现在，中国98%的城市已经建立了检查检验结果互认制度。
This means your digital test results can now be shared and trusted across different hospitals seamlessly.
这意味着你的数字检查结果现在可以在不同医院之间无缝共享和互信。
That is a game -changer.
这真是个颠覆性的改变。
It is like having a universal passport for your medical data.
这就像为你的医疗数据拥有一本通用护照。
It saves money, reduces radiation exposure from repeated scans, and speeds of the entire treatment process.
它不仅省钱，还减少了重复检查带来的辐射暴露，并加快了整个治疗进程。
Kudos to the health authorities for making this happen. Absolutely.
向卫生主管部门致敬，是他们让这一切成为现实。确实如此。
And speaking of health care reform, the National Health Commission also announced a five -year plan
说到医疗卫生改革，国家卫生健康委还公布了一项五年计划，
to expand enrollment for medical undergraduate and master's degree programs, alongside increasing
旨在扩大医学本科生和硕士生项目的招生规模，同时增加
the training of targeted medical students for rural areas.
对农村地区定向医学生的培养。
They also plan to reform the salary and incentive systems to make medical careers more attractive.
他们还计划改革薪酬和激励机制，使医疗职业更具吸引力。
That is very forward -thinking.
这非常有前瞻性。
Training more qualified doctors and treating them well is the ultimate way to ensure a healthier society.
培养更多合格的医生并给他们良好的待遇，是确保社会更加健康的根本途径。
Now, Chloe, let us look at the broader economy.
现在，克洛伊，让我们来看看更广泛的经济领域。
I saw a report about the service industry that caught my eye.
我看到一份关于服务业的报告，吸引了我的注意。
Ah, yes.
啊，是的。
According to a newly released government guideline, China's service industry is projected to reach a
根据最新发布的政府指导意见，中国的服务业预计将达到
massive scale of 100 trillion yuan by 2030.
到2030年达到100万亿元的庞大规模。
The goal is to upgrade the quality of services and foster globally recognized service brands.
目标是提升服务质量，并培育具有全球知名度的服务品牌。
100 trillion yuan is a mind -boggling number.
100万亿元是个令人难以置信的数字。
Let us break down the term service industry for our listeners.
让我们为听众拆解一下服务业这个词。
We often hear about agriculture and manufacturing, so where does service fit in?
我们经常听到农业和制造业，那么服务业处于什么位置呢？
The service industry, also known as the tertiary sector, represents businesses that do not produce
服务业，也被称为第三产业，代表着那些不生产
physical goods, but instead provide value through actions, expertise, or experiences.
实物商品，而是通过行动、专业知识或体验来提供价值的企业。
Think of restaurants, express delivery, software design, tourism, health care, and education.
想想餐厅、快递、软件设计、旅游、医疗保健和教育。
It is essentially the invisible hand that makes our modern lives run smoothly and comfortably.
它本质上是一只隐形的手，让我们的现代生活平稳舒适地运转。
Got it.
明白了。
So instead of making a smartphone, it is about designing the app that runs on it, or delivering the
所以，与其说是制造智能手机，不如说是设计运行在手机上的应用程序，或者是配送
food we order through it.
我们通过手机订购的外卖。
It is all about enhancing our quality of life. Exactly.
这一切都是为了提升我们的生活质量。完全正确。
But as the service and job markets expand, job seekers must remain cautious.
但随着服务和就业市场的扩大，求职者必须保持谨慎。
Police and government ministries have recently issued a joint warning regarding a rise in employment
公安机关和政府部门最近针对就业联合发布了预警，
scams targeting new graduates.
涉及针对应届毕业生的诈骗增加。
They specifically highlighted the recruit -to -train scam, or training loans.
他们特别强调了招转培骗局，也就是培训贷。
Wait, what is a training loan scam?
等等，什么是培训贷款骗局？
How does that work?
那是怎么运作的？
It is a trap, where a dishonest company offers you a job, but claims you lack certain skills.
这是一个陷阱，一家不诚实的公司给你提供了一份工作，但声称你缺乏某些技能。
They promise to hire you if you complete their training program, but you have to pay a high fee for
他们承诺只要你完成他们的培训课程就会录用你，但你必须为此支付高额费用，
it, often by taking out a loan that they set up.
通常是通过申请他们设立的贷款。
Once you sign the loan and complete the training, they either disappear or find an excuse not to
一旦你签署了贷款并完成了培训，他们要么消失，要么找借口不
hire you, leaving you with massive debt and no job.
录用你，让你背负巨额债务，又找不到工作。
That is incredibly wicked.
这真是太恶劣了。
They are taking advantage of young people who are eager to work.
他们正在利用那些急于工作的年轻人。
Our listeners should remember the golden rule.
我们的听众应该记住这条黄金法则。
If a job requires you to pay money or take out a loan up front to get hired, turn around and walk
如果一份工作需要你先付钱或申请贷款才能被雇用，那就转身离去
away immediately.
立即走开。
An excellent piece of advice, Liam.
这是一个绝佳的建议，利亚姆。
Now, let us turn to a highly inspiring story from the creative world.
现在，让我们转向来自创意界的一个非常鼓舞人心的故事。
