04/02/2014
Ten years ago today，23 Chinese migrant workers lost their lives while out collecting shellfish on the beach in northwest England. They were working at night when they were cut off by the rising tide. They all drowned. It became known as the'Morecambe Bay cockle pickers'disaster'. The incident high-lighted the dangers for those working in Britain's black economy. And it led to a tightening-up of some regulations. Buta decade on， what has happened to those left behind in China？Our correspondent John Sudworth has been finding out.
There is a small one-room church in the village in China's eastern Fujian Province. The music broadcast from a loudspeaker on the roof drifts into the surrounding lanes and ramshackle homes. Ten years after the death of their son Siao Qiaokun， they are still grief stricken. In China， the loss of an only son can mean the loss of vital financial support.
In 2004，Siao Qiaokun， then 35 years old， paid a gang of people smug-glers to take him to Europe. A little more than a month later， he was working without papers in the northwest of England as part of a gang of Chinese migrants collecting cockles in More-cambe Bay. The vast sand banks exposed to low tide could appear dangerously deceptively serene. On the night of the 5th of February 2004，the Chinese workers became cut off and trapped. The recordings of the desperate phone calls made to the emergency services that night make chilling listening. It's the sound of 23 unregistered， undocumented lives slipping away beyond the reach of a society they had never been part of.
In 2004，as a BBC reporter based in London， I went to Morecambe to cover the aftermath of the tragedy. I interviewed the live boatman who put the dead bodies from the water that night. I spoke to people still busy ricking up shellfish. And I wondered， of course， about those lost lives. Who were they？What kind of homes that they left behind？When Siao Qiaokun drowned at Morecambe， his son was just 6 years old. Now a teenager， he still lives in the village and shares a humble one-room home with his mother and sister.
译文：
十年前的今天，23名中国侨工在英国西北部海滩拾贝时丧生。他们在晚上涨潮时被卷入大海，溺水而亡，这就是着名的“莫克姆湾拾贝惨案”。它显示出为英国黑色经济卖命的危险，也使相关政策法规得到加强。然而，10年过去了，遇难者家属在中国处境又是如何呢？我们的记者约翰·萨德沃斯对此展开了追踪报道。
我现在所在的位置是中国东部福建省的一个村庄，一间房的教堂内。房顶的喇叭放着音乐，传遍周围的村落和摇摇欲坠的房屋。在儿子肖乔坤去世10年后的今天，他们仍处在悲恸之中。在中国，丧失了独子意味着家里没了顶梁柱。
2004年，35岁的肖乔坤花钱让人贩子带他去欧洲。一个多月后，他就作为众多无证华工中的一员，开始在英国西北部的莫克姆海滩拾贝。广阔的沙滩周围潮水很低，谁曾想，这宁静中竟暗藏杀机。2004年2月5日晚，这些华工被大潮吞没。当晚紧急服务站接到的求救电话现在听来还是令人不寒而栗。这是23名无证非法华工丧命时的声音，他们从一个从来都不属于他们的社会消失了。
2004年，作为驻伦敦的BBC记者，我前往莫克姆对这场悲剧进行了后续报道。我采访了幸存的船员，他在当晚对尸体进行了打捞。我还采访了仍然忙于拾贝的工人。当然，我对遇难者身份也充满了疑问。他们是谁？他们去世后家庭状况如何？肖乔坤在莫克姆遇难时，他的儿子才6岁，现在已经长成了大小伙子，还住在那个村庄，与母亲、妹妹挤在只有一间房的家里生活。

36：新仿生手使得截肢者拥有触觉New bionic hand'allows amputee to feel'
05/02/2014
Amputees who have lost their arms have long been able with prosthetic hands to pick up objects. But to feel those objects has been impossible until now. A team of European scientists has come up with a way to create a bionic hand that allows the amputee to feel life like sensations from their fingers. Our medical correspondent Fergus Walsh met the scientists and the man who learned once again what it was like to experience the shape， hardness and softness of objects in his grip.
