Paper Boats

纸船

泰戈尔

我每天把纸船放在急流的溪中。

Day by day I float my paper boats one by one down the running stream.

我在纸船上用大黑字写上我的名字和我住的村名。

In big black letters I write my name on them and the name of the village where I live.

我希望住在异地的人会得到纸船，知道我是谁。

I hope that someone in some strange land will find them and know who I am.

我把园中长的秀丽花栽在我的小船上，希望这些黎明开的花能在夜里平平安安地带到岸上。

I load my little boats with flowers from our garden, and hope that these blooms of the dawn will be carried safely to land in the night.

我投我的纸船到水里，仰望天空，看见小朵的云正张着满鼓着风的白帆。

I launch my paper boats and look up into the sky and see the little clouds setting their white bulging sails.

我不知道天上有我的什么游伴把这些船放下来同我的船比赛!

I know not what playmate of mine in the sky sends them down the air to race with my boats!

夜来了，我的脸埋在手臂里，梦见我的纸船在子夜的星光下缓缓地浮泛前去。

When night comes I bury my face in my arms and dream that my paper boats float on and on under the midnight stars.

睡仙坐在船里，带着满载梦的篮子。

The fairies of sleep are sailing in them, and the lading is their baskets full of dreams.

Carriers restart flights

国内航司逐步恢复航班

Chinese carriers have started resuming some of their domestic and international services that were suspended due to the novel coronavirus outbreak. "Our services have been growing steadily since Feb 21. We expect more than half of the suspended flights to be operational by the middle of this month," said Zhang Wu'an, spokesperson of budget carrier Spring Airlines.

国内各家航空公司开始恢复运行部分因新冠肺炎疫情而暂停的国内和国际航班。廉价航空春秋航空发言人张武安表示，春秋航空自2月21日起各条航线稳步恢复，到3月中旬，预计超过一半的暂停航线将恢复运行。

China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines and Air China are also restoring their domestic and international flights.

东航、南航、国航也都在逐步恢复其国内和国际航班的运行。业内专家称，虽然新冠肺炎疫情给航空业带来巨大的打击，但随着我国疫情得到控制，市场将迎来强劲反弹。
