Tourists visiting Beijing this week will have found themselves choking on a poisonous fog, filling their lungs with air so polluted children were told to stay indoors. To add insult to injury, it was also thick, blocking from view many of the ancient country's most famous landmarks.
本周去北京旅游的游客會發(fā)現(xiàn)自己正吸入有毒的霧霾，大人告誡小孩子們不要出門，否則肺里全都是毒氣。雪上加霜的是，濃濃大霧讓人都看不清一個個古老的標志性建筑！

However, a new online craze has emerged which could help those struggling to make out the roofs of the Forbidden City, or the mesh surrounding the Bird's Nest stadium. People are uploading pictures of the smog-filled city, and helpfully outlining the various buildings which, on a normal day, would be easy to spot.
不過，網(wǎng)絡上興起的一股熱潮能夠幫助人們“辨別”紫禁城屋頂或是鳥巢周圍的網(wǎng)狀構(gòu)架。網(wǎng)民紛紛上傳這個城市被霧霾籠罩的照片，并在照片上畫上各種建筑的輪廓。在平時的天氣，這些建筑都是顯而易見的。

Hidden city: Tiananmen. The world-famous entrance to the Forbidden City appears to disappear into the smog this week.
幽城：天安門。本周這一通往紫禁城的世界知名入口好像消失在這云霧中。
