美国有线新闻 CNN 美国多州重新开放海滩

And one question on the minds of many Americans as that three day weekend approaches is what's going to be open.

在为期三天的周末即将到来之际，许多美国人心中都有一个问题：哪里会开放？

This is how some U.S. beaches looked last year. The mayor¹ of New York City says its beaches will look more like this on Memorial Day 2020. Swimming won't be allowed. Lifeguards won't be around. But people will be able to walk along the beach. Elsewhere² in the state some beaches will be open with rules in place. One of the big ones being that they can only allow 50 percent of their usual crowds. New York has been the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in America.

去年美国一些海滩人满为患。而纽约市市长表示，今年阵亡将士纪念日当天，纽约市的海滩更可能人烟稀少。海滩禁止游泳。附近也不会有救生员。但人们可以沿着海滩漫步。纽约州其他地区的海滩将重新开放，不过将设置一些新规。其中一项重要规定是，海滩只开放50%载客量。纽约是美国冠状病毒疫情的震中。

One state south, New Jersey³ says all of its beaches will be open to visitors. During a test run this past weekend in Ocean City, a loud speaker reminded people every 15 minutes to keep their distance from each other when walking along the beach or the boardwalk.

纽约州南部邻州新泽西州表示，该州所有海滩都将向游客开放。上周末海洋城进行了试运营，扩音器每隔15分钟广播一次，提醒人们在海滩或木板路上漫步时彼此保持距离。

Beaches are open again in Georgia and some parts of Texas though local areas may still have rules in place. In Florida, it really depends on where you go. Some beaches are shut down. Some are open to locals only. And on the other side of the country, beaches have reopened in Los Angeles County⁴, California, but people have to stay at least six feet away from one another, wear masks whenever they're not in the water and they're not allowed to sunbathe⁵, picnic, ride bikes or play organized sports. And in Washington State beaches are still closed.

佐治亚州和得克萨斯州的部分海滩将重新开放，但当地仍然会实施一些规定。而在佛罗里达州，这要取决于你去哪个海滩。一些海滩已经关闭。有些海滩只对本地人开放。在美国另一边，加州洛杉矶县的海滩已经重新开放，但人们彼此之间必须保持至少6英尺的距离，不下水时必须佩戴口罩，不允许进行日光浴、野餐、骑自行车或参加有组织的运动。华盛顿州的所有海滩仍处于关闭状态。

States are trying to balance the desire of residents⁶ and businesses for things to get back to normal with the warnings of health officials who say reopening too soon could increase the spread of coronavirus. The different rules at American beaches are paralleled into different rules for international travel.

各州正试图在居民和企业希望恢复正常的愿望与卫生官员的警告之间取得平衡，卫生官员称，过快重新开放可能会增加冠状病毒的扩散。正如美国海滩的规定各不相同，国际旅行也有不同的规定。
