模仿文本：First today it was once referred to as King Coal, the fuel which powered the Industrial Revolution, then came climate change, global warming, and apparently¹ burning desire on the part of world leaders to reduce the carbon footprint and phase out dirty, smelly, planet-warming coal. So has coal bitten the dust as a major energy source? Oh, no, not a bit of it. Today the International Energy Agency has released its latest forecast for the coal industry and the agency's Maria van der Hoeven says rumours² of the death of King Coal are premature³.

 

今天首先要讲讲煤炭，这个曾经推动了工业革命的燃料之王。但后来由于出现了气候变化、全球变暖，世界各国领导人明确表态急需减少碳足迹、逐步淘汰掉又脏又有怪味儿还制造全球变暖的煤炭。那么煤炭已经不再是主要能源了吗？不不，完全不是。国际能源机构今天发表了最新的煤炭行业预测，该机构的Maria van der Hoeven认为，燃料之王煤炭的彻底退出还为时尚早。
