ニュースで学ぶ「現代英語」
2024.11.28(11.7) 福島第一原発 初のデブリ試験的取り出し TEST RETRIEVAL OF NUCLEAR FUEL DEBRIS COMPLETED 核燃料デブリの試験的な回収が完了

The operator of Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant says it has completed the first test retrieval of fuel debris from one of the damaged reactors. Removal of all debris is considered the most challenging step in the decommissioning of the facility, which was devastated in the 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
Tokyo Electric Power Company began experimenting with the removal of molten fuel mixed with parts of the reactor structure at the No. 2 reactor in September. To do so, workers placed a pipe-like device inside the containment vessel to grab the material from its base.
Last week, the tool succeeded in retrieving several grams of debris. Radiation levels at a distance of 20 centimeters away from the debris were recorded at 0.2 millisieverts per hour. The debris was placed in a special container just before noon on Thursday, completing the process.
An estimated 880 tons of radioactive debris remains across Fukushima Daiichi's No. 1, 2, and 3 reactors.

🔶Today's Takeaways
◇【コイ】複数のカテゴリーの範囲や時間の範囲を跨いで⇒「あわせて、トータルで」
This “across” (in this news) might sound a little strange if you're used to hearing it in phrases like “across the street” or “across the world.” The key idea here is “stretching over” something – regardless of size.
何かの範囲を跨いで　Exactly. You can use “across” to talk about a range of categories, a range of time, and so much more. It's like saying “covering a range, in total.” So “across Fukushima Daiichi's No. 1, 2, and 3 reactors” means “in reactors 1, 2, 3 combined, in total.”
Here's another way you could use “across” in this way:
Students spend about 150 hours in English class across four grades.

◇放射能測定器　geiger counter, radiation meter
T: Well, how close did you get to the facility?
S: Well, I could only see things from a short distance away from the nuclear power plant building. The radiation level is pretty high for workers approaching the site and the amount of time they can work each day is limited to minimize their radiation exposure.
T: Hm..well, you know, for people like me, who work in low-risk environments, hearing about what the plant workers deal with on an everyday basis is a big reality check. We can't let ourselves forget the situation therein.
