青藏鐵路是中國(guó)西部大開(kāi)發(fā)戰(zhàn)略中的一個(gè)標(biāo)志性項(xiàng)目，將對(duì)加快青海省和西藏自治區(qū)的社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展發(fā)揮重要作用。

青藏鐵路是世界上海拔最高、線路最長(zhǎng)的高原鐵路，全長(zhǎng)1956公里，其中海拔4000米以上的路段960公里。它是第一條連接西藏和中國(guó)其他地區(qū)的鐵路。這條全長(zhǎng)1956公里的鐵路從青海省省會(huì)西寧市開(kāi)始，一直到西藏自治區(qū)首府拉薩市。從西寧到格爾木的814公里長(zhǎng)的路段建于1979年，于1984年開(kāi)始運(yùn)營(yíng)。格爾木至拉薩的1142公里路段沿青藏公路向南延伸，是通過(guò)重建原格爾木至南山口的32公里長(zhǎng)的線路和鋪設(shè)1110公里的新軌道而修建的。由于鐵路穿越世界上最脆弱的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)，在建設(shè)期間和建成后都采取了生態(tài)保護(hù)措施，以確保其成為一條“綠色鐵路”。譯文：軌道交通行業(yè)英語(yǔ)(EnglishforRailTransitIndustry)TheQinghai-TibetPlateauusedtobeanisolatedregionbecauseoftransportationdifficulties,highaltitude,steepterrainandcomplexgeographicalconditions.AmericantravelerPaulTherouxgaveanassessmentaboutrailwaysontheplateauregioninoneofhisdiariesinthe20thcentury,notingthataslongastheKunlunMountainsexist,arailwaywouldneverreachLhasa.ThebiggestchallengeinbuildingtheQinghai-XizangRailwaywastheharshgeographicalconditionsontheplateau.Thefragileecosystem,thelackof

由于交通不便、海拔高、地形陡峭、地理?xiàng)l件復(fù)雜，青藏高原曾經(jīng)是一個(gè)與世隔絕的地區(qū)。美國(guó)旅行家保羅-特魯在20世紀(jì)的一篇日記中對(duì)高原地區(qū)的鐵路作出了評(píng)價(jià)，他指出，只要昆侖山還存在，鐵路就不可能到達(dá)拉薩。

在修建青藏鐵路的過(guò)程中，最大的挑戰(zhàn)在于高原上惡劣的地理?xiàng)l件。青藏高原上脆弱的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)，以及高原缺氧和永久凍土是青藏鐵路歷史上的重大問(wèn)題。

為了確保建筑工人的健康，建立了醫(yī)療保險(xiǎn)制度。鐵路沿線共設(shè)立了115個(gè)醫(yī)療設(shè)施，配備了600多名醫(yī)療專(zhuān)業(yè)人員。建設(shè)了17個(gè)制氧站。沿線每10公里就有一家診所，讓患病的工人獲得快速有效的醫(yī)療，以及定期的健康檢查。譯文：軌道交通行業(yè)英語(yǔ)(EnglishforRailTransitIndustry)ProtectionoftheecologicalenvironmentwasanessentialconcerninthedesignoftheQinghai-XizangRailway.Around550kmoftherailwayhadtopassthroughtheplaceswithpermafrost,whichtroubledengineersovertheworld,buttheChinesesuccessfullyfiguredoutwaystosolvetheproblem,andensureroadbedstabilityinpermafrostregionsbygraveling

生態(tài)環(huán)境保護(hù)是青藏鐵路設(shè)計(jì)中的一個(gè)重要問(wèn)題。大約550公里的鐵路必須經(jīng)過(guò)永久凍土區(qū)，永久凍土區(qū)夏季土壤松軟潮濕，冬季土壤堅(jiān)硬且伸展。它困擾著全世界的工程師，但中國(guó)人成功地找到了解決問(wèn)題的方法，并通過(guò)礫石路堤和通風(fēng)管路基技術(shù)確保了永久凍土地區(qū)的路基穩(wěn)定性。為了防止對(duì)永久凍土、濕地和草原的破壞，在格爾木和拉薩之間修建了675座橋梁，總長(zhǎng)約160公里。

更重要的是，它極大地促進(jìn)了西藏的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展，改善了當(dāng)?shù)鼐用竦纳睢?008年，“青藏鐵路工程”獲得國(guó)家科技進(jìn)步特等獎(jiǎng)。譯文：軌道交通行業(yè)英語(yǔ)(EnglishforRailTransitIndustry)

如今，中國(guó)最先進(jìn)的子彈頭列車(chē)“復(fù)興號(hào)”已在青藏鐵路西寧-格爾木段開(kāi)始運(yùn)營(yíng)。該列車(chē)是為高海拔低溫環(huán)境設(shè)計(jì)的。具有抗紫外線、抗風(fēng)沙等性能，可滿(mǎn)足海拔3500米以上的作業(yè)需要。數(shù)據(jù)顯示，客運(yùn)列車(chē)的速度已從每小時(shí)120至140公里提高到每小時(shí)160公里。西寧和德令哈之間的最快旅行時(shí)間將不到三個(gè)半小時(shí)，為沿線居民提供便利。據(jù)中鐵青藏集團(tuán)宣傳部介紹，未來(lái)，青藏鐵路格爾木-拉薩段將進(jìn)一步電氣化，以提高該線路的綜合運(yùn)輸能力和效率。譯文：軌道交通行業(yè)英語(yǔ)(EnglishforRailTransitIndustry)軌道交通行業(yè)英語(yǔ)(EnglishforRailTransitIndustry)軌道交通行業(yè)英語(yǔ)
