As a decisive blue wave sweeps the United States in the midterm elections, with the Democrats winning clear majorities in both the Senate and the House of Representatives, analysts expect stronger scrutiny of the administration led by US President Donald Trump, but noted that the shift in congressional power may not necessarily effect major changes in the US' foreign policy.随着一股声势浩大的蓝潮席卷美国中期选举，民主党在参众两院均拿下明确多数席位，分析人士预计特朗普政府将面临更严格的监督，但同时指出，国会权力更迭未必会令美国外交政策出现重大转向。 As of Wednesday, Democrats and independents who caucus with them had secured at least 54 seats in the 100-member Senate, including traditionally Republican strongholds such as Texas, South Carolina and Kansas, while counting continued in some states.截至周三，民主党及与民主党结成党团的无党派人士已在 100 席的参议院拿下至少 54 席，其中包括得克萨斯州、南卡罗来纳州、堪萨斯州等传统共和党票仓，部分州的选票统计仍在进行。 In the 435-member House, Democrats had already won 240 seats to cross the majority threshold, even though some races had not yet been called.在共 435 个席位的众议院，民主党已经拿下 240 席，跨过多数门槛，部分选区的选举结果尚未官宣。 The newly elected Congress will be sworn in on Jan 3.新一届国会将于 1 月 3 日宣誓就职。 In a discussion hosted by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs on Wednesday, Daniel Drezner, a professor at Tufts University in Massachusetts, linked the US' foreign policy and the economic concerns of voters.周三，在芝加哥全球事务委员会举办的研讨会上，马萨诸塞州塔夫茨大学教授丹尼尔・德雷兹纳将美国外交政策与选民关切的经济议题联系在一起。 "Americans fundamentally do not care about foreign policy, unless it affects their bottom line," Drezner said, as the discussion repeatedly veered between the impact of the Iran war and the increasing cost of living.“美国人本质上并不关心外交政策，除非它影响到自身实际收益。” 德雷兹纳说。整场讨论反复在伊朗战争的影响与生活成本上涨之间切换。 Justin Logan, director of d...

There is a selective myopia in the way some in the West discuss China, focusing too sharply on its export capabilities while overlooking what the world's second-largest economy imports and the opportunities its vast market offers foreign businesses. As protectionism and unilateralism disrupt the global trading system, the ninth China International Import Expo, opening in Shanghai on Thursday, offers a useful corrective lens for this shortsightedness.Since its inception in 2018 as the world's first national-level exhibition dedicated to imports, the CIIE has evolved into an international public good: a platform through which businesses, economies and developing countries can gain access to China's development opportunities. This year's event has attracted 4,142 overseas exhibitors from 148 countries and regions, including more than 2,000 first-time participants. That is hardly the profile of a market "taking advantage of" others.The persistence of the so-called "China Shock" narrative rests on an inversion. China's manufacturing competitiveness is falsely presented as a "threat", while the benefits of its enormous market, comprehensive industrial ecosystem and growing demand are routinely pushed into the background. The result is a political construct that turns economic interdependence into a zero-sum contest.The facts tell a different story. China's foreign trade in goods reached 39.94 trillion yuan ($5.94 trillion) in the first three quarters of 2026, up 18.8 percent year-on-year. More tellingly, imports grew by 22.3 percent to 16.74 trillion yuan, outpacing the 16.4 percent increase in exports to 23.2 trillion yuan.This is not the typical picture of an economy interested only in selling to the rest of the world.Nor is the story confined to merchandise. China's imports and exports of services rose 8.5 percent to 5.77 trillion yuan during the same period year-on-year. Services exports increased by 14.8 percent to 2.27 trillion yuan, while imports reached 3.5 trilli...

China will adopt a "two launches, lunar orbit rendezvous" architecture for its manned lunar exploration program, a senior engineer said on Saturday, as development work for lunar landing advances steadily.一位资深工程师上周六表示，载人登月研制工作稳步推进，中国载人月球探测工程将采用 “两次发射、环月轨道交会” 方案。 Wang Xiang, deputy chief designer of China's manned space program and chief designer of the lunar exploration program, outlined the plan at the 7th Manned Space Symposium in Beijing.中国载人航天工程副总设计师、载人月球探测工程总设计师王翔，在北京举行的第七届载人航天学术大会上介绍了该方案。 Under the scheme, two rockets would separately send the Lanyue lunar lander and Mengzhou crewed spaceship into the Earth-moon transfer orbit, and the two spacecraft would perform a rendezvous and docking in the lunar orbit. Astronauts would then transfer from the Mengzhou spaceship into the Lanyue lander for the descent to the lunar surface and subsequent scientific work.按照这一方案，两枚火箭分别将揽月月面着陆器、梦舟载人飞船送入地月转移轨道，两个航天器在环月轨道实施交会对接。航天员随后从梦舟飞船进入揽月着陆器，降落到月面，开展后续科学探测工作。 Wang said the approach matches China's existing technical capabilities and infrastructure, and the separate development of the spaceship and lunar lander can help standardize production and support the formation of a long-term family of vehicles.王翔表示，该方案符合我国现有技术基础和配套条件；飞船与着陆器分研模式，有利于标准化批量研制，支撑构建可持续发展的飞行器谱系。 While the plan also presents considerable challenges, Wang said the new system for mobilizing resources nationwide is the fundamental advantage for addressing them.王翔说，这套方案依然存在不少技术挑战，而新型全国协同资源统筹体系，是我们攻坚克难的核心优势。 He said the program has established system plans, technical standards and quality requirements under a single development framework, and has adopted an integrated design approach with emphasis on interface verifi...

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier said on Tuesday that relations with China defy a simple "black-and-white" view as he began a five-day state visit from Anhui province, with an itinerary covering historical ties, sustainable urban development and electric mobility. Hefei, the provincial capital, was the initial stop on his first visit to China since 2018. There, he and his wife, Elke Buedenbender, visited the former residence of Li Hongzhang, a political heavyweight of the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Luogang Park and Volkswagen's research and development center. "Relations between Germany and China are so diverse that they do not fit into a simple black-and-white framework," Steinmeier said in a post on his official social media account following the day's tour. The visit would therefore go beyond economic hot spots and have a broader perspective, he said. Shi Shiwei, director of the Research Center for Sino-German Economic Relations at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing, said that Steinmeier's varied itinerary and accompanying delegation, which included representatives from politics, business, culture, science and civil society, reflected the breadth and diversity of bilateral ties. "Steinmeier is continuing a tradition of German leaders looking beyond the Chinese capital during their visits," Shi said. The stop at Li's former residence offered a historical perspective on bilateral contacts. Li travelled to Germany in 1896 and met former chancellor Otto von Bismarck. At Luogang Park, built on the site of a former airport, Steinmeier viewed a water management system designed to provide flood protection and improve urban climate. The visit to Volkswagen China Technology Company, the group's largest R&D center outside Germany, shifted the focus to the future of industrial cooperation, particularly electric mobility. Shi said that Volkswagen's substantial investment in Hefei in recent years illustrates how longstanding economic...

英语新闻丨上交所指数新版规则生效

Oct 27, 2026 5 min

The latest compilation adjustments to the major indices on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, which took effect on Monday, will help further cushion market volatility and lower risks, which is of great importance at a time of global downward pressure, said experts.专家表示，上交所主要指数最新编制调整于这周一正式生效，此举有助于进一步缓释市场波动、降低风险，在全球经济承压背景下意义重大。 Two major changes have been implemented, according to the latest revision details announced in late September.根据 9 月末公布的最新修订细则，本次调整包含两大改动。 First, a constituent's weight is now capped at 15 percent. Second, the timing for removing risk-warning counters from the indices has been moved earlier. Previously, a stock was taken from the index on the first trading day after the second Friday of the month following the date the risk warning took effect. Now it is dropped on the first trading day after the second Friday of the month following the date the risk warning was issued.第一，单只成分股权重上限设为 15%；第二，指数剔除风险警示股票的时间节点提前。此前，股票在风险警示生效日后次月第二个周五后的首个交易日调出指数；新规调整为，在风险警示公告发布日后次月第二个周五后的首个交易日调出指数。 Tian Lihui, a finance professor at Nankai University, compares the two practices to a "flow-control valve" and "filter" for the indices. The 15-percent cap can prevent one behemoth company from "kidnapping" the overall market performance due to its huge size. Bringing the removal date forward ushers disqualified counters out of the sample pool more efficiently.南开大学金融学教授田利辉将这两项调整比作指数的 “流量控制阀” 和 “过滤器”。15% 的权重上限能够避免体量巨大的巨头个股绑架整体指数表现；提前调出时间则可以让不合格标的更高效地退出样本池。 "Amid higher downward pressure, the market is more sensitive to any factors that might aggravate fluctuations. The latest adjustments can cleanse the index ecosystem at the algorithmic level, ensuring the indices objectively and fairly reflect overall qua...

The 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) started its fifth plenary session in Beijing on Monday morning.Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, delivered a work report on behalf of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and expounded on a draft decision of the CPC Central Committee on some major issues concerning strengthening full and rigorous Party self-governance with perseverance.The draft decision summarizes the achievements and experience of full and rigorous Party self-governance in the new era in a truth-seeking manner, and offers in-depth analysis of the situation and tasks concerning Party building at present and for some time to come. It also sets out strategic plans for strengthening full and rigorous Party self-governance with perseverance, according to a Political Bureau meeting in September that decided to submit the document to the plenum for review.Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, the full and rigorous Party self-governance has made significant progress, opened up a new frontier for the century-old Party in self-reform, and brought about historic achievements and transformations in the cause of the Party and the country, said an earlier Political Bureau meeting in July that set the plenum's agenda.The meeting said the Party and the people have won the historical initiative to build a strong Party and country, but noted that as profound changes unfold in the world, in China and within the Party, efforts to exercise full and rigorous Party self-governance also face many new circumstances and challenges.It called for adopting higher standards and taking more concrete measures to uphold and apply the valuable experience of full and rigorous Party self-governance in the new era, resolve the prominent issues facing Party building, and consolidate and develop the sound political environment created through Party self-supervision and self-governance.

Starbucks China will introduce a purchase-required seating policy nationwide from Oct 22 while investing more than 300 million yuan ($44.9 million) in fiscal year 2027 to upgrade its in-store experience.星巴克中国将于 10 月 22 日起在全国推行消费入座政策，并计划在 2027 财年投入超 3 亿元人民币（约合 4490 万美元）升级门店体验。 The new policy, which requires customers to make a purchase before using store seating, has attracted widespread public attention. Starbucks said the implementation will be guided by clear service standards while maintaining flexibility in daily operations.这项要求顾客先消费方可使用店内座位的新规引发广泛社会关注。星巴克表示，执行将遵循清晰的服务标准，同时在日常运营中保持弹性。 Store employees will receive training on communicating with customers in a friendly manner and accommodating reasonable special circumstances, the company said. Customers requiring assistance, including pregnant women and people with mobility issues, will continue to receive priority support.该公司称，门店员工将接受培训，学习友好地与顾客沟通，并酌情处理合理的特殊情况；孕妇、行动不便人士等需要帮助的顾客，仍可获得优先关照。 The move is part of Starbucks China's new initiative to redefine how customers use and experience its cafes.这一举措是星巴克中国一项新计划的组成部分，旨在重新定义顾客使用、体验门店空间的方式。 "While non-paying visitors may increase foot traffic, they could also weaken paying customers' sense of ownership and comfort in the space," said Jason Yu, general manager at CTR Market Research. "In the long term, Starbucks needs to ensure that its stores continue delivering the experience that customers expect from the brand."央视市场研究（CTR）总经理虞坚表示：“不消费的访客虽然可以提升人流量，但也可能削弱付费顾客对空间的专属感与舒适感。长期来看，星巴克需要保证门店持续提供符合品牌预期的体验。” The coffee market in China has undergone significant changes in recent years, with domestic players such as Luckin Coffee and Cotti Coffee expanding rapidly through lower pri...

Brazilians reelected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Sunday, handing him 51.75 percent of the votes, compared to 48.25 percent for challenger Flavio Bolsonaro.巴西选民周日再次选举路易斯・伊纳西奥・卢拉・达席尔瓦总统，卢拉获得 51.75% 的选票，竞争对手弗拉维奥・博索纳罗得票率为 48.25%。 Lula's victory goes against a shift to the right in recent elections across South America, and will be his fourth term as president.卢拉的胜选与南美洲近期大选整体右转的趋势相悖，这将是他的第四个总统任期。 Lula was president from 2003 to 2010 and later spent 580 days in prison on corruption convictions, which were annulled by Brazil's Supreme Court in 2021. He went on to defeat then-president Jair Bolsonaro — Flavio Bolsonaro's father — who was convicted and jailed on charges of orchestrating a coup.卢拉 2003 年至 2010 年担任巴西总统，后来因贪腐定罪入狱 580 天，该判决于 2021 年被巴西联邦最高法院撤销。他随后击败时任总统雅伊尔・博索纳罗，也就是弗拉维奥・博索纳罗的父亲；雅伊尔・博索纳罗因策划政变的罪名成立而入狱。 Bolsonaro headed into the final ballot as the front-runner, having won 47.03 percent of the vote to 45.16 percent for Lula in the first round of voting this month. Since neither candidate secured a majority of votes, a runoff was held on Sunday.博索纳罗在首轮投票中以 47.03% 对卢拉 45.16% 的得票率领先，以领跑者身份进入最终投票。由于两名候选人均未拿到过半数选票，周日举行了第二轮决选。 Election issues included crime and economic stagnation.本次选举的议题包括治安犯罪与经济停滞。 In images similar to President Javier Milei of Argentina, who often posed with a chainsaw to symbolize cutting government waste, Bolsonaro branded a pair of giant scissors as he promised $40 billion in cuts to public spending.阿根廷总统哈维尔・米莱经常手持链锯出镜，象征削减政府冗余开支；和这一形象类似，博索纳罗亮出一把巨型剪刀，承诺削减 400 亿美元公共开支。 Under Lula, Brazil managed to withstand many of the effects of US President Donald Trump's tariffs, and unemployment remained low, but the populatio...

President Xi Jinping called for new achievements on the new Long March as China commemorates the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Red Army's Long March on Thursday."Only by remembering history can we create a brighter future," said Xi, when addressing a gathering held in Beijing to mark the anniversary.Under Xi's proposal, all participants stood up and observed a moment of silence for the revolutionary heroes who gave their lives during the Long March and in revolutionary struggles across China.From October 1934 to October 1936, the Red Army marched through more than 10 provinces during the Long March, opening up a new chapter in the Chinese revolution, Xi said."This earth-shattering revolutionary feat holds great significance in the history of our Party, country and military, and has a profound impact on our path toward the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation," he noted.Xi stressed that the Party's right leadership and the establishment of Mao Zedong's core position were decisive for the victory of the Red Army's Long March.The Party and the Red Army relied on firm conviction, Xi said, adding that troops with noble ideals and firm beliefs are invincible.Xi emphasized the importance of integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific realities in addressing the country's issues and problems.He further underscored that the people will always be the source of strength and a strong support for the Party and the people's armed forces.Xi said the great spirit of the Long March demonstrates the power of loyalty, truth, justice and unity.

Ninety years after the Red Army completed the Long March, people from all walks of life continue to draw on its enduring spiritual legacy to guide China's modernization drive, as President Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized.红军长征胜利九十年来，正如习近平总书记多次强调的那样，社会各界人士不断从这份恒久的精神遗产中汲取力量，指引中国现代化建设事业。 Thursday marks the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Long March, a strategic military maneuver led by the Communist Party of China from 1934 to 1936 that spanned more than 12,500 kilometers along its main route.本周四是长征胜利 90 周年纪念日。长征是中国共产党在 1934 年至 1936 年间领导的一次战略性军事行动，主线里程逾 1.25 万公里。 Historians describe the epic journey as a crucial turning point for the CPC. The victory pulled the Party and the Red Army back from the brink of destruction and laid the groundwork for the nation's eventual liberation.历史学家将这一伟大征程视作中国共产党发展历程的关键转折点。长征胜利使党和红军转危为安，为国家最终解放奠定了基础。 In 2016, at a ceremony marking the 80th anniversary of the Long March victory, Xi, who is also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, said that people's support was the foundation of the Red Army's victories, and the Long March victory consolidated the bond between the Party and the people, rooting the Party firmly among the people.2016 年，在纪念红军长征胜利 80 周年大会上，同时担任中共中央总书记、中央军委主席的习近平总书记指出，人民群众的支持是红军取胜的根基，长征胜利巩固了党同人民群众的血肉联系，让党深深扎根于人民之中。 He urged the nation to vigorously carry forward the great Long March spirit, and to inspire and encourage the entire Party, the military and people of all ethnic groups across the country — especially the younger generation — to strive with determination and continue to advance the great cause pioneered by revolutionary forebears.他号召全国大力弘扬伟大长征精神，激励和鼓舞全党全军全国各族人...
