目前地表上什麼火車跑得最快,小編看到CNN News介紹全球最快是日本磁浮火車,時速最高可飆603公里,這真的是太驚人了,以下是CNN News的新聞內容,大家可以學一下唷!

It’s a bird — It’s a plane — It’s an insanely fast Japanese bullet train

你可以說它是鳥,也可以說它是飛機,它就是日本的超快子彈列車。
A Japan Railway maglev train hit 603 kilometers per hour (374 miles per hour) on an experimental track in Yamanashi Tuesday, setting a decisive new world record.

週二,日本磁浮列車在山梨縣的試驗軌道上創下時速603公里(每小時374英里)的新的世界紀錄。
A spokesperson said the train spent 10.8 seconds traveling above 600 kilometers per hour, during which it covered 1.8 kilometers (1.1 miles).

一位發言人稱,火車以每小時600公里的速度在10.8秒內跑了1.8公里(1.1英里)。
That’s nearly 20 football fields in the time it took you to read the last two sentences.

你閱讀上兩句話的時間,火車將近跑了20個足球場。
Takeo Ookanda, who runs an exhibition center next to the test track, said witnesses erupted with excitement and applause when the new record was set.

岡田武夫在測試軌道旁經營一間展覽中心,表示火車創紀錄時,目擊者十分興奮,拼命鼓掌。
“I was moved just like many other visitors here today,” he told CNN. “This maglev project… (increases) the hope that Japan can have a good growth again in the future.”

他跟CNN記者說:我當時跟今天在場的客人一樣感動,磁浮列車計畫增加了我們對於國家再次成長的希望。
Fastest in the world

世界最快
The train broke its own record from last Thursday, when it ran at 590 kilometers per hour (366 miles per hour) on a test track.

子彈列車打破了自己在上周四創下的紀錄,當時列車在測試軌道上的速度是每小時590公里(366英里)。

Japan’s trains as safe as they are fast

日本的火車有多快就有多安全。

That beat the old record of 581 kilometers per hour (361 miles per hour), which was set in 2003 during another Japanese maglev test.

擊敗每小時581公里(每小時361英里)的紀錄,這是2003年的舊紀錄。
Right now, China operates the world’s fastest commercial maglev, which has hit 431 kilometers per hour (268 miles per hour) on a route through Shanghai.

目前,中國擁有世界上最快的商業磁浮,行經上海時,速度曾達到每小時431公里(每小時268英里)。
By contrast, the fastest train in the United States, Amtrak’s Acela Express, is only capable of 241 kilometers per hour (150 miles per hour), though it usually plods along at half that speed.

相較之下,美國最快的火車Acela特快,每小時只能行駛241公里(每小時150英里),但它速度通常都只有一半。
