The National Coal Board(NCB) says that if consumption continues to fall, several big mines will have to go in to short time of stop production altogether. 国家煤矿委员会说如果消费继续减少,几家大煤矿不得不减少工时或完全停止生产。
A curious example of this attitude was to be seen in an illustrated advertisement issued to the press some years ago by the National Coal Board(NCB). 数年前,全国煤业理事会在报刊上登载的一幅附插图的广告就是这种态度的突出体现。
