今年冬天,英国近150万户家庭收到寒冷天气付款,这是长期寒冷天气为帮助支付取暖费用而引发的政府福利。 Nearly 1.5 million households in the UK have received cold weather payments this winter, a government benefit triggered by prolonged periods of cold weather to help with heating costs. 当温度连续七天下降到0摄氏度以下时,将自动向领取某些福利的人发放付款。 The payments are automatically issued to those receiving certain benefits when temperatures drop below 0°C for seven consecutive days. 这一总数反映了相当大比例的合格领取者,但每个家庭支付的确切数额和整个冬季的总数仍然不详。 The total number reflects a significant portion of eligible recipients, though the exact amount paid per household and the full winter total remain unspecified.
