坐着高鐵去美國 有望2天內就能到達
Chinese experts 'in discussions' over building high-speed Beijing-US railway.
中國的專家“正在商討”建設一條從北京到美國的高鐵。'China-Russia plus America line' would run for 13,000km across Siberia and pass under Bering Strait through 200km tunnel.
這條“中俄加美高鐵”全程1.3萬公里，途徑西伯利亞、並穿過白令海峽200公里的海底隧道。China is considering plans to build a high-speed railway line to the US, the country's official media reported on Thursday.
據中國官方媒體週四報道，中國正在計劃考慮建設一條到美國的高鐵路線。
The proposed line would begin in north-east China and run up through Siberia, pass through a tunnel underneath the Pacific Ocean then cut through Alaska and Canada to reach the continental US, according to a report in the state-run Beijing Times newspaper.
根據官方媒體《京華時報》報道，這條提議的路線將會從中國的東北開始，經過西伯利亞，再穿過太平洋的一條海底隧道，抵達阿拉斯加，再從阿拉斯加去往加拿大，最終抵達美國大陸。Crossing the Bering Strait in between Russia and Alaska would require about 200km (125 miles) of undersea tunnel, the paper said, citing Wang Mengshu, a railway expert at the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
《京華時報》援引中國工程院的鐵路專家王夢恕的話說，修建鐵路穿過俄羅斯和阿拉斯加之間的白令海峽需要建設大約200公里（125英里）的海底隧道。"Right now we're already in discussions. Russia has already been thinking about this for many years," Wang said.
王夢恕說：“現在已經在談，這也是俄羅斯好多年的想法。”The project – nicknamed the "China-Russia plus America line" – would run for 13,000km, about 3,000km further than the Trans-Siberian Railway. The entire trip would take two days, with the train travelling at an average of 350km/h (220mph).
這個工程項目“中俄加美高鐵”全程1.3萬公里，比西伯利亞大鐵路長約3000公里。整個行程爲兩天，火車平均將以350公里/小時（220英里/小時）的速度行駛。According to the state-run China Daily, the tunnel technology is "already in place" and will be used to build a high-speed railway between the south-east province of Fujian and Taiwan. "The project will be funded and constructed by China," it said. "The details of this project are yet to be finalised."
據官方媒體《中國日報》報道，隧道技術“已經到位”，而且將用於建設福建與臺灣之間的高速鐵路。 “該工程項目將由中國資助和建造。” 報道稱，“這個項目的細節尚未敲定。”
