4.毒地
请看例句： A report claimed that as many as 500 students have been diagnosed with different illnesses, including cancer, caused by toxic groundwater and soil next to the school. 央视近日曝光的"毒地事件"使常州外国语学校陷入困境(put the Changzhou Foreign Languages School in hot water)。该报道称，自2015年9月常外搬迁至新校区现址(relocate to their current new campus)之后，许多学生先后被诊断出皮炎(be diagnosed with dematitis)、血液指标异常(abnormal blood parameters)等情况，个别学生查出患有淋巴癌(lymph cancer)。 该报道称学生们的身体异常情况疑与学校附近的"毒地"相关(is suspected to be related to the toxic soil next to the school)。该校附近的"棕色地块"曾有三家生产有毒化学物质的化工厂(a brownfield site that was home to three chemical factories that produced toxic chemicals)，该地块的污染物氯苯超过正常值的94799倍(pollutant chlorobenzene is 94,799 times over the normal limit)。 但校方驳斥(refute)了该报道，声称学校室内空气质量、土壤和地下水符合国家标准(claim indoor air quality, soil and groundwater meet national standards)，并援引了常州卫生局的报告，称常州8家医院共接诊常外学生597人，部分检查指标异常的为133人。 "毒地事件"引发了广泛关注(arouse widespread concerns)，教育部和环保部表示高度重视该事件(pay highly attention to the case)。19日，环保部与江苏省政府组成的联合调查组(a joint investigation group)抵达江苏常州，对前化工厂的土地进行取样调查(take samples of the land of former chemical plants)。 [相关词汇] 土壤污染 soil contamination 化工污染 chemical industrial pollution 环境治理 environmental governance 致癌物 cancerogen 城市规划 city planning 风险评估 risk assessment |
