Supervision of e-cigarettes
我国将立法监管电子烟

China is planning to establish legislation to supervise electronic cigarettes as part of overall tobacco control efforts as use of the products increases among the youth, the National Health Commission said on Monday. Like conventional cigarettes, e-cigarettes can also be harmful. The flavored vapor they produce contains many toxic substances, and smokers could get addicted to the nicotine, said Mao Qun'an, chief of the commission's planning department. 
国家卫健委22日表示，随着电子烟在青少年中的使用增加，我国计划立法对电子烟进行监管，作为控烟行动的一项举措。电子烟和传统香烟一样有害。国家卫健委规划司司长毛群安表示，电子烟产生的气溶胶含有许多有毒物质，使用者可能对尼古丁上瘾。

About 0.9% of people in China were e-cigarette users last year, up from 0.5% that of in 2015, according to a survey released by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention in May, which was based on nearly 20,000 people across China. The number of e-cigarette users in China who are 15 years or older is estimated at 10 million, the center said.
中国疾控中心今年5月对全国近2万人进行的一项调查显示，去年我国电子烟使用者人数约占人口的0.9%，较2015年的0.5%有所上升。据估计，我国15岁及以上电子烟使用者的数量约为1000万人。

India launches moon probe
印度发射'月船2号'探测器

India on Monday successfully launched its Moon Mission-2, or Chandrayaan-2, which was aborted on July 15 due to a technical snag. The rocket GSLV-Mk-III carrying the orbiter, lander Vikram and rover Pragyaan took off at 14:43 (Indian Time) from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in India's southern state of Andhra Pradesh. 
印度22日成功发射其"月船2号"探测器，本月15日这一发射任务曾因技术故障取消。当地时间14时43分，搭载"月船2号"的火箭GSLV-Mk-III在印度南部安得拉邦的萨迪什•达万航天中心升空。"月船2号"由3个模块组成：轨道飞行器、"维克拉姆"着陆器和"普拉吉安"月球车。

The lander and the rover are expected to touch down near the Lunar South Pole in early September, becoming the first ever spacecraft to land in that region. If successfully carried out, India would become the fourth country, following the US, Russia and China, to achieve this feat. India plans to send its first manned spaceflight by 2022.

FINA warns swimmer Horton
孙杨夺冠霍顿拒登奖台
国际泳联对其提出警告

FINA decided on Monday to send a warning to Australia's swimming body and Mack Horton for a controversial move on the part of the Australian swimmer in the men's 400m freestyle awarding ceremony. China's Olympic champion Sun Yang won his fourth straight world title in the men's 400m freestyle at the 18th FINA World Championships in the South Korean city of Gwangju on Sunday. 
22日，国际泳联决定就男子400米自由泳颁奖仪式上澳大利亚游泳选手马克•霍顿做出的颇具争议的举动，向澳大利亚游泳管理机构及霍顿提出警告。21日，在韩国城市光州举行的第十八届世界游泳锦标赛上，中国奥运冠军孙杨连续第四次赢得男子400米自由泳冠军。

During the awarding ceremony, Horton did not step onto the podium after claiming a silver medal in the event. "While FINA respects the principle of freedom of speech, it has to be conducted in the right context," FINA said in a statement. "As in all major sports organizations, our athletes and their entourages are aware of their responsibilities to respect FINA regulations and not to use FINA events to make personal statements or gestures," it noted. 
在颁奖仪式上，获得该项目亚军的霍顿没有站上领奖台。国际泳联在声明中表示："尽管国际泳联尊重言论自由的原则，但它必须在适当的背景下进行。与所有主要体育机构一样，我们的运动员及其随行人员要明白他们有责任尊重国际泳联规定，不利用国际泳联的赛事发表个人声明或作出姿态。"
