Coronavirus, contagion and concerns
冠状病毒，接触传染和关注焦点
从非典到埃博拉，从来没有异常疫情造成市场趋势长期逆转。一旦流行病大爆发风险消退，投资者应该面对一个进场机遇。From SARS to Ebola, there has never been a long-term reversal of market trends caused by abnormal outbreaks. Once the risk of a pandemic fades, investors should face an entry opportunity.
Long queues to buy surgical masks have become a common sight across Asia. Masks do little to prevent the inhalation of airborne coronavirus particles, which are mostly too small to filter out, say experts. That has not stopped the stockpiling.
排长队购买外科口罩，在亚洲各地已经变成常见的一幕。专家们表示，口罩基本上不能防止空气中的冠状病毒微粒，这些微粒大多太小，无法被过滤掉。但这未能阻止人们抢购。
句子结构
第一句中 to buy 为不定式作后置定语，become 为谓语，采用现在完成时，整句主干为：Long queues have become a sight. 剩下的 to buy surgical masks 修饰 queues，across Asia 修饰 sight，表明地点。
第二句中 do 为谓语，采用一般现在时，which 为关系代词，引导非限制性定语从句【语法点1，非限制性定语从句，见文章最后板块】，which 引导的从句中 are 为系动词，采用一般现在时，small 为形容词作表语，to filter out 为不定式作状语，从句中还包含 too...to(do sth) 结构，意思为“太……而不能/会……”。
第三句 stopped 为谓语，采用现在完成时，stockpiling 为动名词作宾语，开头的 that 为指示代词。【语法点2：指示代词和指示形容词】
词句分析
段中大概有三个词比较陌生：inhalation、airborne、stockpiling。
inhalation 动词形式为 inhale，英文释义为：to breathe air, smoke, or gas into your lungs，吸收烟尘等气体进入肺部。例如，“她吸入浓烟后不久就生病了”可以这样说：She became ill shortly after inhaling the fumes.
airborne：in the air, or carried by air or wind or by an aircraft，空运的，靠空气传播的。“依靠空气传播的冠状病毒微粒覆盖了武汉一大片地区”，The airborne coronavirus particles have covered a huge area of Wuhan. 除此之外，还可以指“飞行器”，比如，我们说“这架老掉牙的飞机起飞非常困难”可以这样说：The old plane had great difficulty getting airborne (= rising into the air).
stockpiling 是 stockpile 的动名词形式（但 stockpile 本身也有名词词性），表示“囤积物，储备物”，英文释义：a large amount of food, goods, or weapons that are kept ready for future use. 市民们抢购口罩是为了以后的不时之需，“一些市民的口罩储备足够支撑好几个月”，The reason why citizens rush to buy surgical masks is to meet their needs in the future, "some citizens even have a stockpile of those that will last several months."
语法点1：非限制性定语从句
非限制性定语从句与先行词的关系松散，只起补充说明的作用。
去除非限制性定语从句对主句的意义影响不大。非限制性定语从句由逗号隔开，在翻译成中文时，常可译成一个并列句。引导非限制性定语从句的关系代词有 which, who, whom, whose, as; 关系副词有 when 和 where。 注意非限制性定语从句不能由关系代词that引导。
