已于2月14日停业的明斯克航母周六起锚，在拖船的牵引下离开停留了16年的沙头角海滨，前往舟山进行整

    修。此后，航母将开赴江苏南通，依托于它的江苏首家航母主题公园今年动工。请看本报昨日的报道：

    The decommissioned Minsk aircraft carrier at Minsk World, the military theme park in Shatoujiao, Yantian District, left the city Saturday to its new location in Nantong Science and Technology Park in Nantong in East China’s Jiangsu Province.

    After 16 years in Shenzhen, poor management and land rights reverting back to the government are the major reasons for the relocation of the Minsk aircraft carrier, insiders said.

    报道中的decommissioned就是“退役的”，commission作为动词是“委任、委托”，de-是表示否定的前缀，例如decrease (减少)，deflate (缩小)，demobilize (遣散)等。请看例句：

    The airline will decommission 17 of its 102 passenger aircraft.

    航空公司准备让102架客机中的17架退役。
