碳税carbon tax联合国气候变化会议于当地时间12月7日在哥本哈根召开。

中国是否有必要实施碳税？又该如何减少碳税实施后对公众福利的影响？对此，专家指出，只有进一步节能减排，才能逾越西方发达国家今后可能设立的贸易壁垒。

温室气体排放税(费)或者碳税(费)政策可以起到宏观调控的作用。

请看《中国日报》的报道：Carbon tax, one of the market mechanisms that China is considering adopting, will raise the current energy price from fossil fuel sources, including gasoline, electricity, coal and natural gas.“碳税”是中国正在考虑要实行的市场机制之一，该机制的实行将提高现有包括汽油、电力、煤炭和天然气等在内的化石能源的价格。

文中的carbon tax就是指“碳税”，是基于市场的主要减排方案之一，根据fossil fuel （化石燃料）燃烧后排放碳量的多少，针对化石燃料的生产、分配或使用来征收税费。

而相比之下，使用wind（风力），sunlight（日光），hydropower（水电）等non-combustion energy sources（非燃烧能源）则更加环保。

Carbon tax是一种针对greenhouse gas（温室气体）中的emissions of carbon dioxide （二氧化碳排放）征收的environmental tax（环境税）。

征收carbon tax的目的在于控制climate change（气候变化）和global warming（全球变暖）。

此外，人们还常采用carbon capture and storage（碳捕获和存储）等方法来处理emissions of carbon dioxide。

英语新闻热词Hot_Words_(1)

• 文中的donate his entire fortune to charity after his death字面上是“死后将全部财产捐出”，其实就是我们常说的“裸捐”，英文中也可以用all-out donation来表示。盖茨和巴菲特在美国劝说富豪们 give the majority of their wealth（捐出大部分财产），这些富豪都属于super-rich级别。 • 不少富豪由于害怕being lobbied to make charity promises（劝捐），因而婉拒了philanthropic gathering/banquet（慈善晚宴）的邀请。因为在中国，富豪们都想要leave their entire fortunes to their descendants（把财产留给后代），这是一个deeprooted concept（根深蒂固的观念），不是那么容易改变的。
“前卫”英文如何表达
• 自世博会开幕以来，瑞典馆入口处的广场区域，每天下午都会举行三场演出，吸引了众多观众的目光。近日上演的前卫戏剧表演更是让参观者们领略到了一种与传统不同的瑞典印象。那么这里的“前卫”英文中该怎么表达呢？ • 请看中国日报的报道： • This new works by China's leading avant-garde painter and calligrapher exemplify the artist's continuing exploration of calligraphic markmaking and the reinvention of tradition. • 中国著名先锋派画家和书法家的最新作品是艺术家不断探索书法创作和传统重建的最好例证。

Hot热words词

Hot热words词作者：来源：《高中时代》2014年第04期在别处症候群在别处症候群，是一个心理学名词，指一种现代人特有的心态。

人们总觉得自己所处的环境不好，认为也许换个工作、换个城市，生活就能得到改观。

在一成不变的生活夹缝中求生存，人们难免会幻想“在别处”的美好，以为在别处，有清新空气、有高薪待遇、有闲暇时光，更有簇新的梦想和志同道合的人群。

但事实上，真到了别处才知道还是原来的那一处好。

生活中，有许多人在同一个环境待得越久，越会产生抵触的情绪和对别处生活的向往。

网络羞涩族网络羞涩指的是不愿在网上透露个人的想法、感受或身份，知道这样做会让世界各地形形色色的人洞悉自己一切的人。

很多现代人都喜欢在网上晒自己的个人生活，但是也有例外——就是那些只看不评论、不分享个人图片和信息，总是默默飘过的“潜水一族”，这种现象被称为网络羞涩。

具有网络羞涩的人群被称作“网络羞涩族”。

学癌学癌，是学习外号的一种，又称高度学渣综合症。

多发病于期末，通常被认为是由懒细胞扩散导致的。

学癌是一个网络词汇，流行于贴吧、QQ空间、微博等社交平台。

它只是网友娱乐时的一种称呼，而并非医疗机构认证的医学名词。

其表现为狂躁、焦虑、多眠、赖床症、手机依赖症加剧。

严重者只要见到书本便会头痛、困倦、恶心，甚至干呕，并会伴随一定程度的“裸考也会过”的妄想。

数学滚出高考？多地改革高考英语，有人也高呼“数学滚出高考”。

对许多人来说，数学是门苦学，无休止地公式背诵和考试令人沮丧。

可惜有问题的是应试教育而非数学本身。

数学是大脑的体操，是非常宝贵的思维训练。

对数学，你是种什么感情？@徐梦娴应试教育过分拔高了数学学习的难度，让数学成为许多考生熬夜刷题的痛苦源泉，不过，或许我们应该呼吁的是“奥数滚出高考”。

@杜思思应试教育将数学异化成为“算术”，我们就应该抛弃数学吗？公式记忆、题海战术看似浪费时间，其实在无形间磨练了我们的耐心和毅力，以及面对复杂问题有条不紊地处理的勇气和方法。

冷热英语单词Hot and Cold English Words。

English is a language that is rich in vocabulary, and one interesting aspect of it is the use of hot and cold words. These words are not only used to describe temperature but also to express emotions, sensations, and experiences. In this article, we will explore some of the most commonly used hot and cold words in the English language.Let's start with hot words. When we think of hot, we often associate it with warmth, intensity, and passion. One example of a hot word is "passionate." This word is used to describe someone who has strong emotions or is deeply committed to something. For instance, a passionate musician pours their heart and soul into their music, creating a powerful and moving experience for the listeners.Another hot word is "fiery." This word is often used to describe someone who has a strong and intense personality. A fiery individual is often quick to anger or express their opinions fervently. Their passionate nature can bring excitement and energy to any situation.Moving on to cold words, these are often associated with coolness, calmness, and detachment. One example of a cold word is "serene." This word is used to describe a peaceful and tranquil environment or state of mind. Imagine sitting by a serene lake, listening to the gentle lapping of the water and feeling a sense of calm wash over you.Another cold word is "chill." This word is often used to describe a relaxed and laid-back atmosphere. When we say something is "chill," we mean that it is easygoing and free from stress or tension. For example, spending a lazy Sunday afternoon with friends, enjoying good food and conversation, creates a chill and enjoyable experience.Hot and cold words can also be used to describe physical sensations. For instance, "scorching" is a hot word that describes intense heat. On the other hand, "icy" is a cold word that describes extreme coldness. These words help us convey the intensity of the temperature and the effect it has on our bodies.In addition to temperature and physical sensations, hot and cold words can also be used metaphorically to describe emotions and experiences. For example, a "burning desire" represents a strong and intense longing for something. On the other hand, a "cold-hearted" person is someone who lacks empathy or compassion.In conclusion, hot and cold words are an interesting aspect of the English language. They go beyond describing temperature and can be used to convey emotions, sensations, and experiences. Whether it's describing a passionate individual or a serene environment, these words add depth and nuance to our communication. So, the next time you want to express yourself vividly, consider using hot and cold words to paint a more vibrant picture with your words.。

【翻译】流行热词翻译，你知道几个？Hot Words Translation2011-11-29（1）微骚客：twidiot点评：这里的“微”指的是“微博”（microblog或 miniblog）;“骚客”传统上指诗人，但如今网友所称的“骚客”则是从show man（表演杂耍的人）音译而来。

译文 twidiot是twitter和 idiot的拼合词，twitter可谓是即时信息的一个变种，它允许用户将自己的最新动态和想法以短信息的形式发送给手机和个性化网站群，是微博的典型应用。

如果觉得 twidiot带有贬义，也可以考虑用 twitterlet（由 twitter和后缀 -let构成）。

背景：“微骚客”特指那些习惯在微博上展示生活细节，但又不完全揭开自己的“老底”的人。

这些人多属于社会中间阶层，具有一定的社会身份和物质基础。

在现实生活中，他们很努力，以期得到他人的注视或认同，但多数人未能如愿。

（2）白客：tracker/ online security guard点评：既然“黑客”一词是 hacker的音译，“白客”就不宜译成white clan，因为“黑客”并不是 black clan。

从文字对应的角度出发，可以把“白客”译成tracker，整个词的读音和hacker 大体相仿，而且还与 hacker 押尾韵。

而 online security guard 则是更加规范的解释性译法。

背景：在英语中，与“黑客”相对，“白客”指在网络世界中打击黑客以保护他人信息安全的网络专业人员。

（3）窥探文化：peep culture点评：peep culture一说由多伦多作家兼社会评论家哈尔涅兹维奇首创，是仿效pop culture（流行文化）这一表达创造出来的短语，其中peep一词指“秘密的、诡秘的窥视”。

背景：如今，基于网络的便捷，人们能够随时通过更新即时通讯软件的签名、社交网站的状态栏、个人博客、微博来展示自己的状态。
