Grain output to increase significantly
今年粮食产量将再创新高

The nation's grain output is expected to increase "by a large margin" this year, as overall damage caused by persistent rainfall in recent months was minimal, an official said on Wednesday. This year's summer grain output was 145.8 million metric tons, up 2.96 million tons year-on-year, said Zeng Yande, who oversees development planning at the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. 
农业农村部发展规划司司长曾衍德10月20日在北京举行的一场新闻发布会上表示，近月来的连续阴雨对我国粮食产量的影响总体有限，预计今年我国粮食产量将"大幅增加"。他还表示，今年夏粮产量2916亿斤，比上年增加59.2亿斤。

The yield of early season rice, whose harvest spans July and August, reached 28 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 725,000 tons, he said at a news conference in Beijing. Zeng said 80% of the harvest has been completed for autumn grains, which account for the bulk of China's annual grain output, and an overall yield increase now seems certain. The year's grain output will set a record by remaining above 650 million tons for the seventh consecutive year, he added.
7月和8月收获的早稻产量达到560亿斤、增加14.5亿斤。曾衍德补充说，目前，秋粮收获已近八成，由于秋粮占全年粮食产量的大头，今年粮食增产已成定局。全年粮食产量将再创历史新高，连续7年保持在1.3万亿斤以上。

China-Laos train undergoes dynamic testing
中老铁路进入开通运营倒计时

The first dynamic test train departed from Vientiane Station of the China-Laos Railway on Wednesday morning and headed north to the Laos-China border town of Boten, to kick off the dynamic testing along the railway. Dynamic testing is an important step before the railway is put into operation. It conducts integrated tests on all systems of the whole railway by running a testing train at the specified test speed and with relevant testing equipment, in order to provide a scientific basis for the railway's opening-to-traffic. 
10月20日，随着首趟动态检测列车从中老铁路万象站出发驶向老中边境口岸磨丁方向，中老铁路磨(磨丁)万(万象)段进入动态检测阶段。动态检测阶段是铁路开通运营前的重要环节，是采用检测列车和相关检测设备，在规定测试速度下对全线各系统进行的综合测试，从而为铁路通车提供科学依据。

The testing items mainly include track geometry, electric traction power supply, communication and signaling system, passenger and freight service system, noise, vibration, and electromagnetic environment. The dynamic testing, undertaken by the China Academy of Railway Sciences Corp, will take an estimated 18 days. The China-Laos Railway is a docking project between the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative and Laos' strategy to go from a landlocked country to a land-linked hub.
检测项目主要包括轨道几何状态、电力牵引供电、通信信号系统、客货动力学、噪声振动与电磁环境等。此次动态检测由中国铁道科学研究院集团有限公司负责实施，预计检测时间为18天。中老铁路是中国"一带一路"倡议与老挝"变陆锁国为陆联国"战略对接项目。

US approves 'mix and match' booster dose
美将批准混合接种疫苗加强针

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Wednesday authorized COVID-19 booster doses of Moderna and Johnson & Johnson, and approved "mix and match" booster doses for currently available approved COVID-19 vaccines. Preliminary results from a government study of different booster combinations found an extra dose of any type revs up levels of virus-fighting antibodies regardless of the brand people first received. But recipients of the single-dose J&J vaccination had the most dramatic response - a 76-fold and 35-fold jump in antibody levels, respectively, shortly after either a Moderna or Pfizer booster. 
当地时间10月20日，美国食品和药物管理局宣布，批准莫德纳和强生两种新冠疫苗的加强针，并批准混合接种目前已获批的新冠疫苗加强针。此前美国政府对不同加强针组合的初步研究结果发现，无论人们最初接种的是哪种新冠疫苗，任何类型的加强针注射都能提高抗体的水平。其中，此前接种了强生单剂疫苗的接种者反应最为显著——在接受莫德纳或辉瑞的加强针后，他们的抗体水平分别上升到原来的76倍和35倍。

The latest moves would expand by tens of millions the number of Americans eligible for boosters and formally allow "mix and match" booster shots - making it simpler to get another dose, especially for people who had a side effect from one brand but still want the proven protection of vaccination. 
这一最新举措将使有资格接种加强针的美国人数量增加数千万，正式批准混合接种也将使获得另一剂疫苗更加简单方便，特别是对于那些接种某种品牌的疫苗发生了副作用，但仍然希望得到疫苗有效保护的人来说。
