中國首架國產(chǎn)客機(jī)首航

China’s first homegrown passenger jet has taken to the skies for a politically charged maiden flight that authorities claimed would propel the country into a new era of aviation.

中國首架國產(chǎn)客機(jī)進(jìn)行了含有政治意味的首航，當(dāng)局稱這將使得中國進(jìn)入新的航空時(shí)代。

The C919, a twin-engine airliner designed to compete with the Airbus 320 and Boeing 737, took off from Shanghai’s Pudong international airport at just after 2pm on Friday.

C919雙引擎客機(jī)是為了和空客320和波音737競爭，周五下午2點(diǎn)從上海浦東國際機(jī)場起飛。

The highly symbolic lift-off, which the government has celebrated as further evidence of China’s own rise, was broadcast live on state-controlled television.

這次富有象征性的起飛在中央臺進(jìn)行了直播。政府稱這更加表明了中國自身的崛起。

The reporter would have written the main part of the story in advance, then adjusted shortly after take-off to put in details from the minute e.g. comments from the media. If it hadn't happened liked that, they'd have adjusted as required. It's how you get stories of Prince Phillip dying published by accident - all part of the race to be the first to print.

記者可能提前寫好了主要內(nèi)容，然后起飛后再對文章細(xì)節(jié)進(jìn)行調(diào)整，比如媒體的評論吖等等。所以才會有菲利普親王去世的消息意外出現(xiàn)——都是為了成為首發(fā)新聞。
