【雙語】開往美國的高鐵 2天內到達

坐火車去香港，坐火車去俄羅斯，以前這些都是很遙遠的事情，現(xiàn)在都能實現(xiàn)了，而坐火車去美國，你能想象嗎？請看如下雙語閱讀：

Chinese experts 'in discussions' over building high-speed Beijing-US railway.

中國的專家“正在商討”建設一條從北京到美國的高鐵。

'China-Russia plus America line' would run for 13,000km across Siberia and pass under Bering Strait through 200km tunnel.

這條“中俄加美高鐵”全程1.3萬公里，途徑西伯利亞、并穿過白令海峽200公里的海底隧道。

China is considering plans to build a high-speed railway line to the US, the country's official media reported on Thursday.

據(jù)中國官方媒體周四報道，中國正在計劃考慮建設一條到美國的高鐵路線。

The proposed line would begin in north-east China and run up through Siberia, pass through a tunnel underneath the Pacific Ocean then cut through Alaska and Canada to reach the continental US, according to a report in the state-run Beijing Times newspaper.

根據(jù)官方媒體《京華時報》報道，這條提議的路線將會從中國的東北開始，經(jīng)過西伯利亞，再穿過太平洋的一條海底隧道，抵達阿拉斯加，再從阿拉斯加去往加拿大，最終抵達美國大陸。

Crossing the Bering Strait in between Russia and Alaska would require about 200km (125 miles) of undersea tunnel, the paper said, citing Wang Mengshu, a railway expert at the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

《京華時報》援引中國工程院的鐵路專家王夢恕的話說，修建鐵路穿過俄羅斯和阿拉斯加之間的白令海峽需要建設大約200公里(125英里)的海底隧道。

"Right now we're already in discussions. Russia has already been thinking about this for many years," Wang said.

王夢恕說：“現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)在談，這也是俄羅斯好多年的想法。”

The project – nicknamed the "China-Russia plus America line" – would run for 13,000km, about 3,000km further than the Trans-Siberian Railway. The entire trip would take two days, with the train travelling at an average of 350km/h (220mph).

這個工程項目“中俄加美高鐵”全程1.3萬公里，比西伯利亞大鐵路長約3000公里。整個行程為兩天，火車平均將以350公里/小時(220英里/小時)的速度行駛。

According to the state-run China Daily, the tunnel technology is "already in place" and will be used to build a high-speed railway between the south-east province of Fujian and Taiwan. "The project will be funded and constructed by China," it said. "The details of this project are yet to be finalised."

據(jù)官方媒體《中國日報》報道，隧道技術“已經(jīng)到位”，而且將用于建設福建與臺灣之間的高速鐵路。 “該工程項目將由中國資助和建造。” 報道稱，“這個項目的細節(jié)尚未敲定。”
