以马航失联事件为话题的英语范文【一】Malaysia Airlines’ primary focus at this point in time is to care for the families of the passengers and crew of MH370. This means providing them with timely information, travel facilities, accommodation, meals, medical and emotional support. All these costs are borne by Malaysia Airlines.We have deployed teams of caregivers consisting of trained MAS staff and volunteers from Mercy Malaysia and Tzu Chi Foundation. These caregivers are stationed at five different locations at Beijing and four different locations in Kuala Lumpur.As of now, we have 115 family members in Kuala Lumpur and they are taken care of by 72 different caregivers. At least one caregiver is assigned to each family together with a Mandarin translator for the families from China.The caregivers have been keeping the familiesupdated on the search and rescue efforts as well as provide emotional support.Equal amount of initial financial assistance are being given out to all families of passengers and crew over and above their basic needs. This amount is extended to families of all crew and passengers in Malaysia as well those from other nations.We regret and empathise with the families and we will do whatever we can to ease their burden. We are as anxious as the families to know the status of their loved ones.以马航失联事件为话题的英语范文【二】Several days ago， a shocking news broke out. A Malaysian airplane (MH370) with 239 passengers just disappeared after its departure from the airport. Almost two hours later， the plane just vanished into air， as if it never existed before.Rumors about it's disappear have spread fast around the world. Some people said that the plane was kidnapped by the space aliens， the so called UFO. It has never been proved or confirmed true. Some people claim that the aircraft exploded in the midair before landing.This might be true to some extent， but we still need more confirmative proof.The people who care most about the passengers are the family members of the passengers. They have been anxiously waiting and even getting desperate after waiting hopelessly for almost four days. What tortures them most is not the sad news of their beloved ones' death， but the newsless. They could get no news from anywhere or anybody about the life or death of their son， daughter， grandson or sister. This has been driving them into craziness day by day.We hope these people on the plane will soon be found well and safe， and with their family members they could get together and reunited.。

马航飞机失联原因难于调查Traditionally regarded as one of the safest planes in the skies, the Boeing 777's reputation will have been damaged by the second fatal crash in less than a year.波音777飞机一直被认为是最安全机型之一，但不到一年时间里发生第二起致命坠毁必然会使其名声受损。
There are around 1,000 Boeing 777s in service, and the plane is a long haul workhorse, plying some of the longest routes.It entered service in 1995 and the National Transportation Safety Board, which is responsible for monitoring US-made aircraft, has logged fewer than 60 incidents.But the recent record has been more patchy（不调和的） with two major incidents - a crash at San Francisco airport last July, which claimed three lives, and the crash-landing of a British Airways 777 at Heathrow in January 2008.But the Malaysian disaster is very different from both the BA incident and the crash involving a Asiana Ai rlines flight at San Francisco International Airport in July.Bo th the BA and Asiana accidents occurred shortly b efore landing, while the Malaysia airlines plane disappeared off the radar during the early stages of the trip.The accident at San Francisco in July was attributed to pilot error which led to the engines being set to idle because he believed the compu ter would maintain sufficient speed to keep the plane up in the air.But initial reports suggest that Zaharie Ahmad Shah, the 53-year-old Malaysian airlines pilot, was huge ly experienced - having joined the carrier in 1981 and with 18,365 hours in the cockpit under his belt.The BA crash landing, which did not result in any fatalities, was finally found to have been caused by a blockage in the fuel line feeding the engine.Simply put the aircraft had the aviation equivalent of a cardiac arrest because some of the fuel failed to melt and blocked the supply line at the end of a long flight from Beijing to London, during which the pla ne travelled through unusually cold airspace over Siberia.This crash has echoes of the disaster in which 288 people on board an Air France Airbus 330. That plane, another long-haul workhorse, crashed into the Atlantic en-route from Rio de Janeiro in June 2009 killing 228 people.A variety of explanations have been given for the Air France crash, withinvesti gators finding that the plane's speed sensors were giving an incorrect reading.But with this crash involving a different aircraft, it will take several months before investigators can ascertain the cause.。
失联马航最新调查报告：坠机前机上人员已窒息【高考英语阅读素材】
失联马航最新调查报告：坠机前机上人员已窒息【高考英语阅读素材】Passengers and crew of the missing Malaysia Airlines MH370 flight most likely died from suffocation as the plane coasted into the ocean on autopilot, Australian officials have said.澳大利亚官员称，马航失踪航班MH370上的乘客和机组人员很有可能在飞机坠落前就已死于窒息，而飞机随后在自动驾驶模式下坠入印度洋。
In a new 55-page report, the Australian Transport Safety Board said investigators arrived at the conclusion after comparing conditions on the flight with previous disasters.在这份长达55页的报告中，澳大利亚运输安全局表示，调查人员将MH370的状况与此前失事的飞机相比较，虽然在飞机本身方面没有新发现，但得出了上述结论。
The report narrowed down the possible final resting place from thousands of possible routes, while noting the absence of communications, the steady flight path and a number of other key abnormalities in the course of the ill-fated flight.该报告从上千条预估路线中锁定了MH370可能坠落的位置。
另外，该报告还列出了航班失联、航线确定等一系列失常状况。

China has sent nine ships to waters south-east of the Bay of Bengal and west of Indonesia.Teams from 26 countries are trying to find flight MH370, which went missing on 8 March with 239 people on board.The entire search area is now roughly the size of Australia.Malaysia says the plane, which was flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, was intentionally diverted and could have flown on either a northern or southern arc from its last known position in the Malacca Straits.Investigators are looking into the possibility that the aircraft's crew - or other individuals on the plane - were involved in its disappearance.The Chinese vessels set off from Singapore early on Wednesday, to search an area of around 300,000 sq km, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.The ships would focus on waters near Sumatra, away from regions being searched by other countries, it added.'Grave fears'On Tuesday, China began searching its territory along the northern arc for the aircraft, following a request from the Malaysian authorities.However, Foreign Minister spokesman Hong Lei said on Wednesday that China had not yet found any sign that the plane entered its territory, Reuters reported.Australia is leading efforts along the southern arc in the Indian Ocean.However, the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (Amsa) said on Wednesday that neither military aircraft deployed on the search, nor merchant ships trans iting through the area, had seen anything in connection to the aircraft.Rupert Wingfield-Hayes: Red tape grounds search planes"It is a challenging search operation and Amsa continues to hold grave fears for the passengers and crew on board the missing flight," Amsa said.Meanwhile, Thailand's air force said on Tuesday a re-examination of its radar data found what may have been the plane travelling west towards the Malacca Straits at 01:28 Malaysia time, shortly after it lost contact with air traffic controllers.This would be consistent with Malaysia's military radar, which spotted the plane over the Malacca Straits - the opposite direction from its planned flight path - early on 8 March.Thai air force spokesman Montol Suchookorn said that the plane did not enter Thai air space and he could not confirm whether it was flight MH370.Thai radar later spotted the plane heading north and disappearing over the Andaman Sea, AFP reported, citing the spokesman.The Thai military had previously said it had not detected any sign of the aircraft.。

3月高考英语考前突破 阅读理解能力 国际时事要闻 马航失联客机可能被手机劫持
马航失联客机可能被手机劫持As the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 continues, investigat ors have come across some startling evidence that the plane could have been hijacked using a mobile phone or even a USB stick.马航失联客机MH370的搜救工作仍在继续，与此同时，调查人员惊讶地发现，飞机可能是被手机甚至USB设备劫持。
The theory comes from a British anti-terrorism expert who says cyber terrorists could have used a series of "codes" to hack the plane's in-flight entertainment system and infiltrate（渗入） the security software.According to Sally Leivesley, a former scientific adviser to the UK's Home Office, the Boeing 777's speed, direction and altitude could have been changed using radio signals sent from a small device. The theory comes after investigators determined that someone with knowledge of the plane's system intentionally flew the jet off course."It might well be the world's first cyber hijack," Leivesley told the U.K.'s Sunday Express. "This is a very early version of what I would call a smart plane, afly-by-wire aircraft controlled by electronic signals."Leivesley said that the evide nce increasingly indicates that someone took over th e plane's controls "in a deceptive（迷惑的） manner" and overwhelmed the plane's system either remotely or from a seat on the plane."There appears to be an element of planning from someone with a very sophisticated systems engineering understanding," she said. "When the plane is air-side, you can inset a set of commands and codes that may initiate, on signal, a set of processes."Investigators have also proposed that the pilots themselves could have switched the plane's communication equipment off and redirected the plane west, but officials say it would have been very difficult for them to make the plane disappear from radar. Commercial aviation pilots who spoke with NPR said shutting down the system, which is design ed to automatically communicate with ground control stations, is far more complicated than throwing a single switch."They said you'd have to go through big checklists, you'd have to possibly pull circuit breakers if you wanted to deactivate [all the communications equipment]," NPR's Geoff Brumfiel told "All Things Considered" host Robert Siegel. "So, to do this, you'd have to have some degree of premeditation（预谋） and a lot of knowledge of the aircraft."Further evidence supporting the cyber hijack theory comes from the fact that Boeing had previously expressed concern over the security of the plane's systems, and had even contacted the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration for permission to change some of the onboard equipment. In August 2012, Boeing appl ied to have additional security installed aboard several of its 777 series aircraft.Boeing was concerned that the aircrafts' inflight entertainment system, which includes USB connections, could allow hackers to access a plane's computer. The Federal Aviation Administration granted Boeing permission to change its inflight systems five months ago."The integrated network configurations in the Boeing Model 777-200, -300, and -300ER series airplanes may enable increased connectivity with external network sources and will have more interconnected networks and systems, such as passenger entertainment and information services than previous airplane models," the U.S. Feder al Register stated in a Nov. 2013 report. "This may enable the exploitation of network security vulnerabilities and increased risks potentially resulting in unsafe conditions for the airplanes and occupants."Last year, a Sp anish researcher showed it was possible to hack a plane using a mobile phone. According to WTOP, during a presentation in April 2013 at the Hack-In-The-Box securit y summit in Amsterdam, Hugo Teso allegedly proved that with an Android smartphone, a specific "attack code" and an Android app called PlaneSploit, he could hijack both a plane's system as well as the pilot's display.The FAA quickly denied Teso's assertion that he could remotely commandeer a plane."The described technique cannot engage or control the aircraft's autopilot system using the FMS or prevent a pilot from overriding the autopilot," the FAA said in a statement following Teso's demonstration. "Therefore, a hacker cannot obtain 'full control of an aircraft' as the technology consultant has claimed."。
马航失联幕后有黑手？ 马方或隐瞒不敢说话
马航失联幕后有黑手？马方或隐瞒不敢说话大家应该注意到马航客机失联事件是在乌克兰局势发生变化，“对方”舰队意图进入黑海这样的一个时刻发生的。
欧洲在马方未主动发布的情况下，第一时间向中方确认和证实了意大利人和奥地利人不在飞机上，这其实是一个向中方暗示的信号，告诉我们：“他们和此事无关，也只能说这么多……”这一信号等于是告诉了我们调查的方向，如果欧洲提供信息的正确性，从护照丢失时间和机票路线看，这个行动是有预案和充分准备的。
巧的是有问题的机票多数是南方航空出票，人员国籍更是涵盖了热点地区各方。
我方损失人员还有一点宗教背景，又是马方的飞机，最近昆明又出事，这是想挑起大战吗，而这些正是败笔，是想掩盖误导事件什么?对于这一地区的空勤信息应该是比较详细的，虽然各国不大，可这几个国家的雷达并不落后，欧洲货到俄罗斯货都有。
对于777这种目标信号如此大的飞机，居然都不掌握不确定，一定有知情者的。
即便如此“对方”还是不忘展示其伟大形象，又是爆料直播报道又是第一时间派出反潜机和军舰，充分反映了其存在的及时性，从赶到的时间看，他们是够迅速的。
马来西亚航空客机失联最新消息：据中国南方航空公司官方微博昨天(3月8日)证实，马来西亚航空公司失联的飞往北京的MH370航班乘客名单中，有7名乘客是通过南方航空公司完成订票，而此前媒体报道的两名护照被盗的西方乘客的订票信息则全部来自南方航空公司。
美国全国广播公司零时22分报道，美国官员称，在马航乘客名单中的一名意大利公民和一名奥地利公民已被证实并未登机，两人护照均曾被盗，因此引发了涉及恐怖主义的担忧，美国方面正在进行相关调查。
中国南方航空公司官方微博于3月8日下午16:08分发布微博称：“今天失联的马来西亚航空MH370是与南航代码共享由马航执飞的航班。
据初步统计有7名南航市场方旅客，其中1名中国籍，2名乌克兰籍、1名奥地利籍、1名意大利籍、1名荷兰籍以及1名马来西亚籍。
具体情况还在核实中。
