日本在2020年奥运会前用狗进行“反恐演习”

Japanese officials undertook ‘anti-terrorism’ drills involving dogs trained to detect suspicious items, including explosives, at Tokyo Station on Wednesday as they ramp up security preparations for next year’s Olympic Games.

日本官员周三在东京车站进行了“反恐怖主义”演习，训练警犬探测包括爆炸物在内的可疑物品。与此同时，他们正在为明年的奥运会加强安保准备。

During the drill, specially trained Labrador and Beagle dogs sniffed commuters near ticket barriers as officials attempt to balance the need for security whilst not causing too much disruption to the capital’s busy transport system.

在演习期间，经过特殊训练的拉布拉多和比格犬嗅探了检票口附近的乘客，工作人员试图平衡安全需求，同时又不会对首都繁忙的交通系统造成太大干扰。

Nearly 20 million people use public transport daily in the greater Tokyo area, home to more than 35 million people.

在东京地区，每天有近2000万人使用公共交通，该地区人口超过3500万。

An estimated 600,000 additional people are expected to come to the city during Games’ time, meaning both security and efficient transport are concerns for local officials.

在奥运会期间，预计将有60万人来到北京，这意味着安全和高效的交通都是当地官员关注的问题。

Wednesday’s drills follow similar test conducted at another Tokyo subway station in March.

在周三的演习之前，今年3月在东京的另一个地铁站也进行了类似的测试。

At separate tests, body scanners have also been introduced to detect hazardous objects hidden in clothing, according to the Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Ministry (MLIT).

根据国土、基础设施、交通和旅游部(MLIT)的说法，在不同的测试中，人体扫描仪也被用于检测隐藏在衣服里的危险物品。

“This is a new project conducted for Tokyo 2020,” the ministry’s railway chief Hidenoby Nomoto told reporters on Wednesday.

“这是为2020年东京奥运会设计的一个新项目，”铁道部部长野本秀男(Hidenoby Nomoto)周三告诉记者。

“Considering the result of this experiment test, we would like to analyze the fluidity of travelers, or how the customers felt.”

“考虑到这次实验测试的结果，我们想要分析旅客的流动性，或者顾客的感受。”

Most of the commuters observing the drills on Wednesday were pleased with the extra security measures.

周三看到演习的大多数通勤者都对额外的安全措施感到满意。

“They do these kinds of security in airports (so) I think it’s a nice thing to do for safety,” said Tokyo resident Sayaka Ito.

东京居民伊藤早矢香说:“他们在机场采取这种安保措施，所以我认为这对安全来说是件好事。”
