自欺欺人？成都禁止学生戴口罩防雾霾.

　　An education bureau in Chengdu, Southwest China’s Sichuan Province on Wednesday denied online reports that it had banned students from wearing face masks and stopped parents from installing air purifiers in classrooms.

　　之前曾有报道称成都教育局禁止学生戴口罩、阻止学生家长在教室安装空气净化器，但是本周三该部门否认了这一报道。

　　"Schools will not encourage or ban the installation of air purifiers in classrooms," the education bureau of Jinjiang district said on its official Sina Weibo on Wednesday, in response to online reports that a school in the area took away air purifiers bought by parents.

　　为回应网上对成都锦江区一学校移除由家长购买的空气净化器的报道，该区教育局周三在其新浪官微上说道：“学校将既不鼓励、也不禁止在教室里安装空气净化器。”

　　"Parents of students from three classes in Qizhong Yucai School raised money to install air purifiers in the classrooms. But the air purifiers caused noise … and some students complained, so the school stored them in the teachers’ offices," read the bureau’s post.

　　该教育局发文称：“七中育才学校三个班的学生家长集资在教室里安装了空气净化器。但是净化器产生了噪音，一些学生也进行了投诉，因此学校把这些净化器拆了放在了教师办公室里。”

　　The Jinjiang educational bureau also denied an online rumor that a foreign language school in the area had banned all of its students from wearing face masks.

　　锦江区教育局也否认了网上称该区一所外国语学校禁止所有学生戴口罩的谣言。

　　Posts circulating online said that the Jiaxiang Foreign Languages School made an announcement Monday demanding students and faculty not to wear masks and trust the government’s forts to deal with the smog.

　　据网上流传的帖子称，本周一嘉祥外国语学校发表了一份声明，要求学生和教师不能带口罩、相信政府治理雾霾的努力。

　　Although these claims were later denied by the news office of the Chengdu government on Monday, they have widely circulated on social media, with many Net users expressing deep concern about the city’s smog problem.

　　虽然周一晚些时候成都政府新闻办公室否认了这些消息，但是这样的报道却在很多新闻媒体上流传，许多网民都对成都市的雾霾问题表示严重关切。

　　Chengdu has been engulfed by heavy smog since December 3 when the local environmental protection bureau issued a third emergency warning on heavy pollution to strengthen controls on dust pollution and vehicle emissions. The city was declared to be clear of smog on Tuesday.

　　从12月3日以来成都就一直被浓重的雾霾所笼罩，当地环保局发布了一份重污染III级警告、加强对粉尘污染和汽车排放的控制。本周二，成都宣布雾霾被清除干净。
