美国香烟盒大变样 将用恐怖警示标识

　　Rotting teeth and gums. Diseased lungs. A sewn-up corpse of a smoker. Cigarette smoke coming out of the tracheotomyhole in a man's neck.

　　腐烂的牙齿和牙龈。病变的肺。吸烟者被缝合上的尸体。从男人脖子上的气管套管洞中飘出的烟。

　　Cigarette packs in the US will have to carry these macabreimages in nine new warning labels that are part of a campaign by the Food and Drug Administration to use fear and disgust to discourage Americans from lighting up.

　　这些恐怖的图像将出现在美国香烟盒的九种新警示标识上。美国食品和药品监督管理局想利用这种新警示标识让美国民众感到恐惧、恶心，从而让其放弃吸烟。这些新警示标识是美国药管局戒烟运动的一部分。

　　The labels, announced on Tuesday, represent the biggest change in cigarette packs in the US in 25 years.

　　这些警示标识是在周二发布的，是美国25年来在香烟盒上做的最大变动。

　　At a time when the drop in the nation's smoking rate has come to a standstill, the government is hoping the in-your-facelabels will go further than the current surgeon generalwarnings toward curbing tobacco use, which is responsible for about 443,000 deaths a year in the US.

　　在全国吸烟率停止下降的情况下，美国政府希望这种刺激眼球的警示标识能够比当前卫生局局长发出的控制烟草使用的警告更有效。吸烟每年造成美国44.3万人死亡。

　　"These labels are frank, honest and powerful depictions of the health risks of smoking," Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in a statement.

　　美国卫生与公共服务部部长凯瑟琳 西贝利厄斯在一项声明中说：“这些警示标识直白、有力地描述了吸烟对于健康的危险。”
