I'm Carl Azus, it's great to see you.

我是 Carl Azus，很高興見到你 。

We've talked about how there hasn't been a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to dealing with coronavirus cases.

我們已經談過，在處理冠狀病毒病案例時，並沒有一個放之四海而皆準的方法。

Different countries have had different levels of restrictions, and this has played out the same way in different American states.

不同的國家有不同程度的限制，這在美國全國各地不同的州內也有發生同樣的情況。

Nationwide, the US has seen a decrease in new daily infections since mid-January.

美國自 1 月中旬以來，每日的感染新病例有所下降。

At that time, experts said there were more than 270,000 positive tests recorded each day.

專家表示，當時每天有超過 27 萬個確診。

The latest estimate is that roughly 64,000 positive tests are now recorded daily.

最新的估計是，現在每天大約有 64000 個確診。

But some health officials are concerned that number has plateaued, meaning the improvement might have stalled.

但一些衛生官員擔心這個數字已經趨近平緩，這意味著可能已經停滯不前，不再進步。

According to Johns Hopkins University, some states are holding steady in their numbers of new cases, some are seeing decreases continue, others are seeing new cases increase.

根據約翰霍普金斯大學的說法，一些州的新增病例數量保持穩定，有些是持續減少，有些是新的病例增加，

And what their state governments are requiring varies as well.

而各州政府的要求也不一樣。

In Mississippi, for instance, Governor Tate Reeves is allowing businesses to operate at full capacity this week, and he's eliminating Mississippi's requirement that people wear masks in public.

以密西西比州為例，州長 Tate Reeves 本週允許企業盡力營運，他還取消了密西西比州在公共場合戴口罩的規定。

But in California, where a mask mandate remains, Governor Gavin Newsom is encouraging people to wear two face coverings at the same time.

但在加州，仍須戴口罩，州長 Gavin Newsom 甚至鼓勵人們戴兩層口罩。

The numbers in Mississippi simply no longer justify government overreach.

密西西比州的病例數根本無法證明政府的過度限制是合理的。

Mississippians can make their own decisions.

密西西比人可以自己做決定。

Please continue to wear a mask.

請繼續戴上口罩。

What some other states are doing is reckless.

其他一些州的做法是魯莽的。

It is now time to open Texas 100 percent.

現在是德州 100% 開放的時候了。

You can't safely reopen your economy until we get this disease behind us.

在我們擺脫這種疾病之前，無法安全地重新開放經濟。

Despite that divide, several states, regardless of whether they're led by Republicans or Democrats, are taking some steps to ease their restrictions.

儘管存在分歧，但無論是由共和黨還是民主黨領導的幾個州，都在採取一些措施來放寬其限制。

Health officials say variants—new mutations of coronavirus—may increasingly threaten the US as they have other countries.

衛生官員說，新突變的冠狀病毒可能會像其他國家一樣不斷威脅美國。

The Infectious Diseases Society of America says people should continue to wear masks, keep their distance from one another, avoid large gatherings, and frequently wash their hands.

美國傳染病協會表示，人們應繼續戴口罩、保持距離、避免大型聚會、經常洗手。

We are 17 days away from the start of the Olympic torch relay, a tradition of the modern Olympics that dates back 85 years.

距離開始奧運聖火傳遞剩下 17 天，這是可以追溯到 85 年前的現代奧運傳統。

In 1936, a group of runners carried a burning torch from Olympia, Greece to Berlin, where the Summer Games were hosted that year by Nazi Germany—the nation used the relay and the Olympics themselves as a propaganda tool.

1936 年，一群選手將燃燒的聖火從希臘奧林匹亞運到柏林，當年的夏季運動會由納粹德國主辦，該國將傳遞聖火和奧運本身作為宣傳工具。

讓人著迷的是，你即將見到的這位女士，將為今年的日本奧運傳遞火炬，在 1936 年的奧運，她才三十多歲。

Hey, at 118 years old, you gotta take your naps where you can get them.

嘿，都 118 歲了，能睡就得盡量睡。

Sure, she might have been a bit tired while talking with me, but that's probably because she's conserving energy.

當然，她在跟我講話的時候可能有點累，但有可能是因為她在儲存體力。

After all, in just a couple of months, this supercentenarian will become the oldest person ever to carry the Olympic flame as a torchbearer.

畢竟，再過幾個月，這位超級人瑞就會成為史上最年長的奧運聖火傳遞者。

[Japanese] We thought it was a great thing.

[日文] 我們認為這是一件很棒的事情。

It's great that people of all generations can take part in the torch relay.

各個世代都能參加聖火傳遞是很棒的事。

Tanaka is almost as old as the modern Olympics itself, first held in Athens, Greece, 1896, just seven years before she was born.

田中的年齡幾乎和現代奧運本身一樣大，第一次奧運在 1896 年的希臘雅典舉行，就在她出生前 7 年。

[Japanese] If she can walk for the last few meters—because she can still walk—it would be great.

She could walk over and hand the torch to the next relay runner, and we could be by her side as she does that.

A historic opportunity in an already extraordinary life, one which proves monumental memories can be made at any age.

As it stands now, Tanaka will carry the torch on May 11th in Fukuoka, and she's currently listed by Guinness as the third oldest person to ever live.

目前來看，田中將於 5 月 11 日在福岡傳遞聖火，她目前被金氏世界紀錄列為有史以來第三位最長壽的人。

Fleets of six-wheeled robots are appearing in some communities and carrying food with them.

六輪機器人的車隊攜帶著食物出現在一些社區。

They could cost an estimated $5,500 each and somebody has to run them, so they require some upfront investment.

每臺設備的成本估計為 5500 美元，而且必須有人來操作，所以需要一些前期投資。

They could take delivery drivers' jobs, and there have been instances when they've been kicked over by passers-by.

But when everything goes right...

A Friday afternoon at Bridgewater State University, and it's not just students roaming through campus.

From Starbucks to a slew of lunch options.

像是教科書、超商裡的東西。

At four miles per hour, it's not exactly fast food, but it would be fun to order to go and then watch it go as long as no one takes out your takeout.

雖然時速只有四英里，不算是快餐，但只要沒有人拿走你的餐點，下單外送之後看著它走路也是一種樂趣。

If it can keep rolling while you get your steps in, you'll be eating on the run, and it serves up a perfect example of meals on wheel—all right!

如果你站上去的時候它還會繼續走動，那你就會變成邊吃邊跑，而它就成了「輪上餐點」(meals on wheel 指的是為老人及病人送飯上門的服務) 的一個完美例子，好耶！
