深圳滑坡事故再度引發安全標準質疑
More than 90 people are missing after a landslide inundated an industrial zone in the prosperous southern city of Shenzhen on Sunday, the latest incident to raise questions about safety standards in China.
週日，在繁榮的華南城市深圳，一起山體滑坡引發的泥石流淹沒了一個工業園區，導致逾90人失蹤。這是引發人們對中國安全標準質疑的最新一起事故。
Factories, offices, dormitories and other low-rise buildings were buried or damaged by the mudflow, according to Xinhua, China’s state news agency. Hundreds of rescuers were scouring the site on Monday to clear the debris and look for survivors, although no deaths have yet been reported.
根據中國官方新聞機構新華社（Xinhua）的報道，泥石流埋葬或毀壞了多家工廠、辦公室、宿舍及其他低矮建築。週一，數以百計的營救人員正在仔細搜尋現場，以清理廢墟並尋找倖存者——儘管目前還未報出有人死亡。
Although formal investigations have only just begun, the ministry for land and resources said that the debris originated from “a steep, man-made mountain of dirt, cement chunks and other construction waste”.
雖然正式調查纔剛剛開始，中國國土資源部已在其官方微博(Weibo)賬戶上表示，“人工堆土垮塌的地點屬於餘泥渣土受納場，主要堆放渣土和建築垃圾，由於堆積量大、堆積坡度過陡，導致失穩垮塌，造成多棟樓房倒塌”。
Just a fishing village until China started to open up in the late 1970s, Shenzhen has grown to become one of the country’s wealthiest cities, with a population of more than 10m and thriving manufacturing and technology industries.
在上世紀70年代末中國啓動改革開放以前，深圳還只是一個小漁村。如今，深圳市已成爲中國最富有的城市之一，不僅擁有逾1000萬人口，還擁有繁榮的製造業和高科技產業。
But, just as elsewhere in China, there are concerns that breakneck expansion has come at the cost of lax regulation and low-quality development.
然而，和中國其他地方一樣，有人擔心過快的擴張是以管理上的鬆懈和低質量的發展爲代價。
Human error and lack of oversight have been blamed for contributing to other deadly disasters in China this year including a chemical explosion that devastated the port city of Tianjin in August, a ferry that sank on the Yangtze river in June and a stampede at New Year’s celebrations in Shanghai.
人爲失誤和缺乏監管，一直被歸結爲導致今年其他幾起致死災難的原因。這些災難包括今年8月摧毀港口城市天津的化學爆炸事故、今年6月的長江沉船事故以及上海新年慶典時的踩踏事故。
On Monday, Chinese state media published photographs of the Shenzhen incident site that showed multi-story buildings knocked over by an expansive sea of mud, as well as vehicles that had been swept away.
週一，中國官方媒體公佈了深圳事故現場的照片，照片中顯示大面積的泥石流之海沖垮了多個多層建築，還有多個車輛也被泥石流沖走。
