Every public in the American state of West Virginia has been closed for the past three days while teachers and other school employees are on strike. They’re calling for higher wages and better health care benefits.


在过去的三天里,美国西弗吉尼亚州的公众机构都关闭了,而教师和其他学校的员工也在罢工。他们要求更高的工资和更好的医疗保健福利。


In 2017, West Virginia ranked 48 out of the 50 states in average teacher salary. Governor 1 Jim Justice signed legislation 2 last week that gives educators a 2 percent pay raise starting this summer and increases 1 percent next year and the year after.


在2017年,西弗吉尼亚州的教师平均工资在50个州中排名48。州长Jim Justice上周签署了一项法案,让教育工作者的工资从今年夏天开始提高2%,并于明年和后年增加1%。


But teachers there have other concerns about health insurance and taxes that the law doesn’t address. Governor Justice says he hasn’t forgotten teachers, but that they should be back in the classroom. And some state lawmakers agree. While the strike goes on, churches and community centers have programs for students so working parents don’t have to stay home. And teachers and food pantries are sending extra meals to students who normally 3 get them at school.


但是,老师们对医疗保险和税收另有忧虑,而法律并没有解决这些问题。州长Justice说他没有忘记老师,但是他们应该回到教室。一些州议员也表示同意。当罢工继续进行时,教堂和社区中心为学生提供了一些项目,这样,有工作的父母就不必呆在家里了。教师和食品分发处向在学校就读的学生提供额外的膳食。


There are almost 20,000 teachers and more than 277,000 students enrolled 4 in West Virginia’s public schools.


在西弗吉尼亚的公立学校里,大约有2万名教师和超过277000名学生。
