Disney World Re-Opens, Welcoming Guests and the NBA
迪士尼重新开放迎接游客和NBA复赛
By Caty Weaver
10 July 2020
Two of Walt Disney World's four theme parks in Florida are reopening Saturday. The other two are preparing to reopen four days from now.
佛罗里达州4家沃特迪士尼主题公园中的两家将于周六重新开放。另两家也在筹备四天之后重新开放。
Return visitors will find new rules in place and probably notice some major changes at the parks, near the city of Orlando. Missing will be the usual nightly fireworks show above what Disney officials call "The Most Magical Place on Earth." Officials also have suspended Disney World's beloved parades. In fact, officials have taken steps to avoid all events that lead people to crowd together closely.
重新回归的游客将会发现出台了一些新规定，并且可能会注意到奥兰多市附近的主题公园中发生的一些重大变化。迪士尼官方所谓的“地球上最神奇的地方”之上的常规夜间焰火表演没了。有关官员还暂停了全球最受欢迎的迪士尼游行。实际上，有关官员已经采取措施避免了所有会导致人们密集聚集的活动。
The company hopes the changes are enough to prevent the spread of COVID-19 among Disney World visitors and employees. The new rules require that people get temperature checks before entering the park and use face covers while on site.
该公司希望所做的变动足以阻止新冠肺炎在迪士尼世界的游客和员工中传播。新规定要求人们在入园前必须测温，并且在园内佩戴口罩。
Visitors also will not be seeing any live performances for a while. Disney World's performers are in a dispute with the company about their demands for a virus testing program. Unlike other park workers, singers and dancers cannot wear face masks or socially distance while on the job.
游客们还将暂时看不到任何现场表演。迪士尼世界的演员要求进行病毒检测，他们就此与该公司存在争议。与园区其他工作人员不同，歌手和舞者在工作中不能佩戴口罩或保持社交距离。
Florida is currently experiencing one of the worst outbreaks of COVID-19 in the United States. Experts have described the state as the latest epicenter of the coronavirus spread.
佛罗里达州目前正遭受美国最严重的新冠疫情之一。专家称该州是新冠病毒传播的最新“震中”。
Also this week, Walt Disney World welcomed the arrival of 22 National Basketball Association teams. The professional sports organization suspended the basketball season in March because of COVID-19. Now it is preparing to return to play, holding the remainder of the season's games at Disney World's huge sports complex. The first game is set for July 30. NBA officials say the championship will be decided by October 13.
同样是在本周，华特迪士尼世界迎来了22支NBA球队。由于新冠病毒，这家专业体育组织于3月份暂停了这个赛季的比赛。现在它们准备复赛，并在迪士尼世界的大型体育馆举办本赛季的剩余比赛。首场比赛定于7月30日举行。NBA官员表示，冠军将在10月13日决出。
"It's great to be back after four months," said Orlando Magic player Nikola Vucevic.
奥兰多魔术队球员尼古拉·武切维奇表示：“在4个月之后重新回归比赛真是太棒了。”
Not all players were quite as happy, however. Lebron James of the Los Angeles Lakers expressed displeasure about being separated from his family. He wrote on Twitter about missing his wife and three children in California.
但是并非所有球员都这么开心。洛杉矶湖人队的勒布朗·詹姆斯对与家人分开感到不满。他在推特上写道，他想念留在加州的妻子和3个孩子。
"Just left the crib to head to the bubble... Hated to leave the #JamesGang," he posted.
他写道：“刚刚离开家走向前途未卜的明天。我讨厌离开詹姆斯一家。”
And one NBA player expressed his opinion on the restart without even having to say a word. Joel Embiid of the Philadelphia 76ers joined his team on the flight to Orlando wearing a full hazmat suit.
有位NBA球员甚至一言不发就表达了他对复赛的态度。费城76人队的乔尔·恩比德身穿全套防护衣，跟球队一起飞往了奥兰多。
Embiid is known for being a joker and got some laughs for his effort.
大家都知道恩比德是个逗比，经常逗人乐。
