First up today, a 50-year prison sentence for Charles Taylor, the former leader of Liberia. Taylor was found guilty by an international criminal court last month. He's the first former world leader since World War II to be convicted of war crimes.
今天首先我們來關(guān)注被判刑50年的利比里亞前領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人查爾斯•泰勒。泰勒上個(gè)月被國際刑事法院指控其罪行。他是二戰(zhàn)以來被被判犯有戰(zhàn)爭罪的第一位前世界領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人。

Taylor was president of the African nation of Liberia from 1997 through 2003. during that time, he was accused of being involved with the civil war in a neighboring country, Sierra Leone. The charges included murder, slavery and forcing people younger than 15 to fight in the conflict.
泰勒自1997年到2003年間擔(dān)任非洲國家利比里亞的總統(tǒng)。在那段時(shí)間里,他被指控參與鄰國塞拉利昂的內(nèi)戰(zhàn)。這些罪行指控包括謀殺、奴役及強(qiáng)迫小于15歲的年輕人參于戰(zhàn)斗沖突。

A special court in The Netherlands handed down Taylor's sentence yesterday. The judge says Taylor was responsible for, quote, "aiding and abetting some of the most brutal crimes in human history." The former Liberian leader is appealing his conviction.
昨天在荷蘭的一個(gè)特別法庭宣告了泰勒的判決。法官稱泰勒負(fù)責(zé)“協(xié)助并教唆人類歷史上一些最殘酷的罪行。”前利比里亞領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人懇求自己的判決。

International anger about what's going on Syria is growing. The United Nations Security Council is looking for ways to pressure Syria's government to stop the fighting that's gone on for more than a year now. Thousands of people, most of them civilians, have been killed in this violence.
國際社會(huì)對(duì)于敘利亞的憤怒正在增長。聯(lián)合國安理會(huì)正在尋找方法來對(duì)敘利亞政府施加以停止已持續(xù)一年多戰(zhàn)斗。成千上萬的人,其中大部分的平民已經(jīng)死于這種暴力流血事件。

There's anger inside Syria as well. This protest was in the city of Houla. That's where more than 100 Syrians were killed last Friday in what some people describe as a massacre . One big question is what the international community can do about this.
在敘利亞境內(nèi)也存在憤怒。這次抗議活動(dòng)是在城市霍拉。上周五那里超過100名敘利亞人被殺，而一些人稱其為大屠殺。一個(gè)大問題是國際社會(huì)在這方面能做些什么。

No country is openly pushing for military action. Some have spoken out against the idea. Others say it should be an option. Some officials say right now the situation in Syria is at a tipping point.
沒有國家公開強(qiáng)烈要求采取軍事行動(dòng)。一些已公開表示反對(duì)這個(gè)想法。其他表示這應(yīng)該只是一種方法。一些官員稱目前敘利亞局勢(shì)正處于一個(gè)臨界點(diǎn)。

During that convention the Republican Party will officially name its presidential nominee. That is now almost certain to be Mitt Romney. This week the former Massachusetts governor unofficially won his party's nomination,thanks to the Texas primary. Governor Romney has been winning delegates and primaries and caucuses since January.
在此次大會(huì)中共和黨將正式提名總統(tǒng)候選人?，F(xiàn)在幾乎已經(jīng)確定非米特•羅姆尼莫屬。本周由于得州初選，前麻薩諸塞州州長非正式地獲得了該黨的提名。州長羅姆尼自今年1月以來一直贏得初選和預(yù)選會(huì)議的代表。

One of the people who offered congratulations to Mitt Romney, his opponent. President Obama called Governor Romney about the milestone yesterday. The president will officially be named the Democratic nominee at that party's national convention. That's taking place in Charlotte in September.

The states hosting those conventions and others along the U.S. East Coast are dealing with rain and wind from Beryl. This is the same severe weather system that we reported on earlier in the week.
主持這些會(huì)議的州和其他美國東海岸的各州正在處理來自Beryl的狂風(fēng)暴雨。這是我們?cè)诒局茉缧r(shí)候報(bào)道的過的同樣的惡劣天氣系統(tǒng)。

Wednesday evening, Beryl was no longer a tropical depression, even though it was losing strength, it was still raising concerns, though, because in addition to the wind and the rain, Beryl was also causing dangerous rip currents.
周三晚上, Beryl不再是一個(gè)熱帶低氣壓,即使失去力量,它仍令人擔(dān)憂,因?yàn)槌孙L(fēng)和雨, Beryl同樣也會(huì)導(dǎo)致危險(xiǎn)的巨浪。
