#热词##东北限电#部分地区用电紧张 国家电网回应——近期，包括辽宁、吉林、广东等地出现电力供需形势紧张，一些地区采取了有序用电、拉闸限电等举措。近几个月经济强劲复苏、煤炭和天然气价格上涨以及南方高温致空调用电激增等因素是近期电力短缺的原因。Strong economic rebound in the recent months, price increases for coal and natural gas and soaring temperatures in the warm southern region that trigger spikes in air-conditioner use contributed to the power shortage.
东北地区的吉林、黑龙江和辽宁省从9月23日起实施拉闸限电措施，居民用电和城市交通控制系统用电也受到影响。Power rationing began in northeast China's Jilin, Heilongjiang and Liaoning last Thursday, and residential and urban traffic control use has also been affected.
【词汇讲解】这里的power rationing就是指“拉闸限电”，是指煤电资源供应紧张的情况下限量供电。Ration这个词可以用作动词或名词，表示“限量、定量（供应）”，比如：petrol was rationed to five gallons a week（汽油每周限量5加仑）；during the war, no one was allowed more than their ration of food, clothing and fuel（战争期间，所有人的食物、衣服及燃料都定额分配）。
国家电网表示，将全力以赴打好电力保供攻坚战。更多#双语#讲解：https://t.cn/A6MtRqKk
