BBC News Item 2 政治:大选在即,布朗遭遇挑战Less than six months before a general election in Britain, the governing Labour Party isembroiled again in internal strife. Two former cabinet ministers have called for secret ballot ofmembers to decide whether the Prime Minister Gordon Brown should continue as party leader. Mr.Brown has called a general election by June this year. Our political correspondent Rob Watsonreports.The two former cabinet ministers Geoff Hoon and Patricia Hewitt had stunned everyone atWestminster with their last-minute efforts to challenge Gordon Brown’s leadership. But DowningStreet and Labour Party officials have moved quickly to quash any revolts. Most importantly,current cabinet ministers have come out and backed the prime minister, orbiting some cases withlittle apparent enthusiasm. So the latest challenge looks likely to be short lift. Although manywithin the Labour Party doubt Mr. Brown’s leadership qualities, they also seem to think it wouldonly make things worse to get rid of him before the general election.BBC News Item 3 军事:英国核缩减计划The British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is offering to scale back Britain’s nucleardeterrence if an international agreement is reached to cut the world’s nuclear arsenals. Mr. Brown isexpected to tell a special session of the United Nations Security Council on Thursday that he’ll bewilling to give up one of four royal navy submarines that carry Trident nuclear missiles. Officialsare insisting that cost isn’t a factor here. Here’s our defence correspondent Nick Childs.Gordon Brown is saying he’ll be ready to throw part of the trident force into the port in thecontext of a much bigger global disarmament deal. He said soin general terms before. This offerthough is more concrete. There is a growing sense that to avoid what some fear could be a suddencascade of new nuclear states, the established nuclear powers need to do more in terms ofdisarmament to keep the proliferation regime intact. The Prime Minister will hope his move will beseen as an important gesture. But the key to the process will be the actions of the big players, theUnited States and Russia.BBC News Item 4 军事:英国派军阿富汗The British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is expected to confirm that he is sending hundredsmore troops to Afghanistan, bringing the total number of British troops there to about 9,500. Britainhas the second largest NATO contingent in Afghanistan after the United States. Our defensecorrespondent Caroline Wyatt reports.In his statement on Afghanistan, it’s believed Mr. Brown will say he’s agreed in principle tosend around 500 extra British troops to Helmand. The military advice says that extra forces areneeded to help maintain progress and dominate the ground more effectively to keep the Taliban outof key areas. However, there will be caveats. The Prime Minister will wantassurances frommilitary chiefs that the extra troops will be properly equipped. But he’ll also expect Britain’s NATOpartners to follow suit by offering more forces themselves. NATO defense ministers are likely todiscuss troop levels on a meeting formally in Bratislava next week.英国首相戈登预计将确认他将向阿富汗派遣更多军队,使英国军队总数约9500。

Share prices in New Y ork, London, Frankfurt and Paris fell by more than 2% after a major international credit rating agency Standard & Poor‟s downgraded Greek debt to a level known informally as junk. Nils Blythe has more.Standard & Poor‟s downgraded its assessment of Greek bonds to the so-called junk status because of the growing danger that the bond holders will not be paid back in full. Many big investment funds have rules that forbid them from holding junk bonds, says the move is likely to trigger a further round of selling. Share markets have taken fright, fearing that if Greece does default on its debts, it would hit many European banks which hold Greek bonds and could trigger a wider financial crisis. Already pressure is mounting on Portugal which has also seen its credit rating downgraded today, although it remains above junk status.BBC News Item 6 经济:IMF 要求各国进一步稳定全球金融体系The International Monetary Fund has told governments across the world that further action is needed to help return the global financial system to stability. In a fresh estimate of the scale of the problem, the IMF says global losses on toxic assets could total four trillion dollars. Andrew Walker reports.This report does identify what it calls some early signs of stabilization in financial systems, but there are not many of them. And the IMF says further action will be needed if they‟re to be sustained. In two key areas, it says that progress by governments has been piecemeal and reactive, dealing with the problem assets held by financial institutions and how to handle banks that need extra capital. For that problem the report says temporary government ownership may sometime be necessary.BBC News Item 7 经济:德国给予希腊财政援助Officials in Germany say the total financial aid package for Greece could be more than double, the 60 billion dollars that is previously expected. The head of the International Monetary Fund Dominique Strauss-Kahn is in Berlin trying to persuade Germany to agree to the financial rescue plan. He said the deal needed to be implemented quickly as the situation was getting worse every day and could affect other European countries. But the German Chancellor Angola Merkel saidBerlin needed to be searching that Greece was serious about spending cuts.2www.T BBC News Item 8 经济:IMF 正努力帮助希腊解决债务问题The head of the International Monetary Fund says Greece has nothing to fear from the organization. At a news conference in Washington, Dominique Strauss-Kahn said the IMF was trying to provide Greece with the advice and resources necessary to help with its debt problem. Andrew Walker reports from Washington.Mr. Strauss-Kahn was responding to a Greek journalist who said the Greek public are demonizing the IMF that they fear things will be worse with IMF involvement. The agency has a reputation for requiring borrowing countries to make deep cuts in popular government spending programs. Mr. Strauss-Kahn said the Greek people should think of the IMF as a cooperative organization where the countries of the world work together to help those in trouble by providing resources and advice on behalf of the international community.BBC News Item 9 经济:G20 财政部长达成协议Finance ministers of the world‟s leading industrialized and developing countries, the G20, have agreed to continue supporting the global economic recovery. In a statement released after their meeting in Scotland, the ministers said conditions had improved, but economic and financial recovery was uneven and unemployment a worry. Andrew Walker reports.The communiqué avoids complacency. Although economic and financial conditions have improved, they decided they still need to keep up the initiatives intended to restore growth. The meeting was, however, rather overshadowed by a statement from the British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, suggesting a tax on financial transactions as one of a number of options for making banks pay for the crisis. His calls have been received politely by the finance ministers but several made remarks which suggest that other ways of tackling the problem are rather more likely to be adopted.BBC News Item 10 经济:欧盟达成协议,终止了香蕉贸易争端The European Union has initialed an agreement to end one of the world‟s longest-running trade disputes over bananas. The EU, the world‟s biggest importer of bananas, is to cut the duty it imposes on Latin American producers of the fruit, while bananas grows in former European colonies will gradually lose the preferential terms they‟ve enjoyed. Andrew Walker reports.The deal signed in Geneva commits the European Union to gradually lowering the tariffs it imposes on bananas imported mainly from Latin America. The cut will be over a third by 2017. That will reduce the competitive advantage of a group of countries, mainly former colonies of EU states in Africa and Caribbean, which enjoyed tariff-free access. The EU plans to provide those countries with some compensation, in a shape of nearly 300,000 dollars in additional aid.BBC News Item 11 科技:太阳能飞机The long-awaited take-off of the Solar Impulse was greeted with delight by those who have spent the last seven years working on it.The solar-powered plane has the wing-span of a jumbo jet, but weighs less than a family car.It doesn‟t use a single drop of aviation fuel, instead its giant wings are covered with solar cells.The project is the brainchild of Swiss adventurer Bertrand Piccard —he sees the Solar3www.T Impulse as a sign of things to come.BBC News Item 12 教育:英国学校开设学普通话课程It‟s the world‟s fastest growing economy and shows no sign of slowing down, so striking deals with Chinese businesses is now the top priority for every British company that wants to stay ahead in global trade. Now schools in the United Kingdom want to give their students a head start by teaching them Mandarin —and they are making it compulsory.Brighton College is a fee paying private school on the south coast of Britain and already teaches Latin, Spanish and French to its 1,200 pupils. Students can choose between these languages, but from the autumn, which is the beginning of the new academic year in British schools, every student must study Mandarin whether they like it or not.BBC News Item 13 娱乐:奥斯卡大赢家英国The cast and crew of British movies will no longer be hailed as the underdogs at awards ceremonies. At the recent 81st Oscars ceremony, British actors and movies won no less than 11 awards.The list of Oscar winners is usually dominated by American films and actors but 2009 has seen a more international flavour to the ceremony. British actors and actresses have long awaited such global recognition. Kate Winslet was nominated six times for an Oscar before she eventually won the Best Actress award at this year‟s ceremony.Slumdog Millionaire lived up to its status as a global success and movie phenomenon. The low-budget movie swept the board winning eight Oscars, including Best Director and Best Picture. The movie, which documents the life of a young Indian boy after he wins a TV game show, has definitely helped to raise the profile of the British film industry.Summarising the national feeling, British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, issued a statement sayi ng “Britain is showing it has the talent to lead the worl d”.BBC News Item 14 人物:英女王也是网民It might seem like an unlikely match —an ancient institution getting to grips with cutting edge technology —but the British royal family has been active online for more than a decade.They launched their own website in 1997. The Queen‟s Christmas message is available as a podcast, and a year ago the official Royal Channel was launched on Y ouTube, showing videos of the family at work.Royal watchers describe the 82 year old Queen as a silver surfer —someone who‟s enthusiastic about the internet and who keeps in touch with younger members of her family by email.BBC News Item 15 体育:伦敦马拉松This weekend, around 35,000 runners filled the streets of London, running the 26th annual London Marathon. The course is 26.2 miles long (42 km), and goes past many of London‟s landmarks, such as the Tower of London, the famous 19th century ship Cutty Sark, the Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace. The runners actually run over Tower Bridge.4www.T BBC News Item 16 体育:牛津剑桥划船赛Oxford and Cambridge are the oldest and most famous universities in Britain, and there has always been a great rivalry between the two institutions. But the most public competition between the two is the annual Boat Race. The 2006 Boat Race will take place on 2nd April, and will be the 152nd race of its kind.Both universities are located near rivers, and rowing is a popular and prestigious sport. The very first race took place in 1829, when a Cambridge student challenged a school-friend studying at Oxford. Ever since, the defeated team from the previous year challenges the opposition to a rematch. The only times when no Boat Races took place were during the First and Second World Wars.BBC News Item 17 政治:美国民主党得到参议院60 个席位President Obama‟s Democratic Party has secured the critical 60 seat majority in the US Senate that can help it override any Republican obstructions on Capitol Hill. This happened when the Democrats won the last undecided senate seat from November‟s election after the Supreme Court in the state of Minnesota declared the Democratic candidate Al Franken the winner. Richard Lister reports from Washington.For almost eight months the two candidates had been locked in a bitter fight in the Minnesota Courts over the result of November‟s Senate election. Just a few hundred votes separated them after the 2.8 million cast. The initial count favoured the Republican Norm Coleman but the recount gave the majority to his Democratic Party rival Al Franken. And the State Supreme Court is now upheld that verdict. His victory gives the Democrats 60 votes in the senate and the potential to overturn Republican efforts to block legislation.BBC News Item 18 政治:美国和以色列关系面临考验Reports in Israeli media say Israel‟s ambassador to the United States Michael Oren told Israeli diplomats that American-Israeli relations were facing a crisis of historic proportions. Washington is furious at last week‟s announcement by Israel during a visit by the US V ice President that more new Jewish homes were to be built in occupied East Jerusalem.

South Korea’s Ministry of Health, Welfare and Family Affairs will be turn ing off all the lights at 7pm in a bid to force staff to go home to their families and, well, make bigger ones. It will repeat the experiment once a month.The country now has one of the world’s lowest birth rates, lower even than neighbouring Japan,and boosting the number of newborn children is a priority for this government, staring into theabyss of a rapidly ageing society, falling levels of manpower and spiralling health care costs.

Most non-Muslims are ethnically Indian or Chinese. The row over the use of the word “Allah” has expo sed deep resentments over the treatment of minorities and freedom of religion in Malaysia.

BBC News with Marion Marshalla BBC新闻稿
BBC News with Marion MarshallaAbout 1,000 people have been injured in Russia after a large meteor burned up in the skies above the southern Ural’s region causing a shockwave that damaged buildings across a wide area. Most of those hurt suffered minor cuts and bruises from flying glass, but several dozen had to be kept in hospital. The meteor released several kilotonnes of energy equivalent to that of a nuclear bomb. An official in Chelyabinsk, Polina Zolotarevskaya, described what she had seen.“It was quite extraordinary. We saw a very bright light and then there was a kind of a track, white and yellow in the sky. It was a very broad track. And then in several seconds, there was a strong explosion.”The Russian president, Vladimir Putin, said he thanked God that no big fragments from the meteor had fallen in populated areas.An asteroid about half the size of a football field has safely passed Earth in what scientists say as the closest known approach for an object of its size. At its nearest point, the rock, with a diameter of about 45 metres came within about 28,000 kilometres of Earth, closer than some TV and weather satellites. Scientists say the asteroid has nothing to do with the Russian meteor. It’s just a cosmic coincidence.The South African Paralympic champion Oscar Pistorius has denied murdering his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. In a statement issued after Mr Pistorius was charged in Pretoria, his family said that he disputed the charge. This report from Peter Biles.Oscar Pistorius remains in police custody after his dramatic court appearance at which he broke down and sobbed. He’ll spend the next three days at a police station in Pretoria before returning to court on Tuesday. State prosecutors will oppose a bail application. They say this is a case of premeditated murder. But Oscar Pistorius’s family issued a statement saying the alleged murder was disputed in the strongest terms. They refer to the killing of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp as a terrible, terrible tragedy.The Venezuelan government has released the first photo of President Hugo Chavez since his fourth round of cancer surgery which he underwent in Cuba last December. There’s been widespread speculation about when or whether the president will resume hisleadership. Sarah Grainger reports from Caracas.The photos show Mr Chavez wearing his customary tracksuit, reclining on a bed next to his two daughters. He’s smiling in one of the pictures reading a copy of a recent edition of the Cuban newspaper Granma. Addressing the public on state television, Venezuela’s Information Minister Ernesto Villegas said President Chavez was breathing through a tracheal tube and could not speak at present. But he also stressed the measure was reversible. Ministers have been under pressure to produce some good news about President Chavez. Just a week ago the government announced that it was devaluing Venezuela’s currency.World News from the BBCThe International Committee of the Red Cross says the humanitarian situation in Syria is catastrophic. The organisation’s director of operations said he’d seen unbearable suffering for civilians on a recent trip to the country. Imogen Foulkes reports from Geneva.The International Committee of the Red Cross has been working in Syria since the start of the conflict. It describes the situation now as nothing short of catastrophic. The number of different armed groups is increasing. Villages change hands on a daily basis. Attacks on hospitals and the killing of nurses and doctors are now so common. The Red Cross says that the health service in some parts of the country has become a wasteland.The authorities in the Netherlands have raided a meat processing plant they suspect of mixing horsemeat with beef and selling it as pure beef. It’s the latest in a series of similar actions across Europe. As Matthew Price reports from Brussels:This scandal has spread fast. Across Europe, some 13 countries so far have been affected. The Brussels bureaucracy has moved uncharacteristically rapidly. EU food safety officials decided to start new tests immediately to find out how much of the food chain has been affected. It’s clear this is not the result of one or two rogue suppliers. It’s beginning to look like an industry and continental-wide problem.A British academic has stumbled upon a 500-year-old proclamation calling for the arrest of the Renaissance political writer Niccolo Machiavelli in the Italian city of Florence. The Medici family, who ruledFlorence at the time, accused Machiavelli of plotting to overthrow them. He was detained, tortured and placed under house arrest, where he started writing his famous book The Prince, describing the art of political manipulation. The term Machiavellian is still synonymous with the cunning pursuit of power.BBC News。

BBC News Item 5 经济:欧美股市大跌
Stock markets in Europe and the United States have fallen sharply in response to further signs that the debt crisis in Greece is intensifying and could spread to other countries. Share prices in New York, London, Frankfurt and Paris fell by more than 2% after a major international credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s downgraded Greek debt to a level known informally as junk. Nils Blythe has more. Standard & Poor’s downgraded its assessment of Greek bonds to the so-called junk status because of the growing danger that the bond holders will not be paid back in full. Many big investment funds have rules that forbid them from holding junk bonds, says the move is likely to trigger a further round of selling. Share markets have taken fright, fearing that if Greece does default on its debts, it would hit many European banks which hold Greek bonds and could trigger a wider financial crisis. Already pressure is mounting on Portugal which has also seen its credit rating downgraded today, although it remains above junk status.

bbc新闻文本(BBC News Text)BBC UN special envoy for Syria says he can not set date for peace talksOne of the major sticking points in any peace talks is President Assad. Some opposition leaders say he must step down at some point in the political transition. Others insist he must go before talks can even start. But the president's advisor Doctor Bouthaina Shaaban was clear this issue was not on the table. In a rare interview, she emphasized the president's role would be decided by the Syrian people at the ballot box, in elections or in a referendum. Doctor Shaaban was also scathing about the opposition describing rebel groups as creations of powerful backers like Saudi Arabia.Ballot: vote!Scathe: severe criticismThe main crux of all peace talks from President Assad, the opposition said that he must step down at a time of political transition, and other opposition even insists that he should leave in peace talks before the start. But the president's adviser, Dr. Busina Shaaban, made it clear that the departure of the president was not in negotiations. In a rare interview, Dr. Shaaban stressed that the president's fate should be decided by the people of Syria in either an election vote or a referendum.

何听懂BBC新闻
何听懂BBC新闻?(一)尽量先以自己熟悉的语言了解新闻内容刚到 ICRT 国内新闻中心上班的外籍记者,虽然多半中文程度并不差,但是有时候「新闻中文」并不强,在翻译或阅读一些中文的新闻稿时,虽然可以查单字,但要完全了解整体的意思,往往有些困难。
发生这样的状况,我会建议他们先去看英文报纸的同样一则新闻,透过自己的母语,了解其中的来龙去脉,再回来看中文稿时,本来以为很复杂的内容,就变得简单多了。
同样的,在进行当天的英文新闻学习前,先从中文的媒体了解当天主要的国际或国内新闻内容,在听英文新闻时,就容易多了。
当然,这是在学习期间,过了入门的阶段,就不需要了。
(二)掌握各类新闻英语的有限单字世界之广,事件之多,大部分的人一定认为,要掌握新闻英语的相关单字,恐怕好几千个,要背完一整本的新闻字库,才有办法听懂。
这个想法似乎很合逻辑,但是其实有个极大的错误,从政治新闻到娱乐新闻,当然很可能有几千个单字,但是相关的单字每几个月,甚至每几年才出现一次,就是所谓的 rarely used vocabulary(罕见单字),例如:「multilateral currency realignment」(跨国货币调整)或「planned obsolescence」(计画的陈废),如果连这些也要背,那可真是不得了。
幸好,每天新闻会遇到的单字,八成五以上,都是我们称为的 commonly used vocabulary (常用单字)。
换言之,只要你能掌握这五、六百个重复出现的单字(也就是本书所介绍的字汇),就可以听懂八成五以上的新闻。
其它一些较专门的财经或科学等新闻字汇,等主要的单字会了之后,再慢慢的增加难度。
(三)遇到听不懂的地方不要去想它,继续听下去你一定有个经验,在听英语新闻或英语节目时,遇到一个你不会的字或没听清楚的段落,就开始想它的意思,往往造成接下来的内容全都没听清楚。
所谓「一心不能二用」,绝不可以在听的同时,边想前一句的意思,要养成一个习惯,那就是遇到不太懂的地方不要停下来思考,专心听下去。

Nigeria has declared its economy to be the biggest on the continent, overtaking South Africa for the 1st time. Will Ross reports from Lagos.
After the statisticians had been hard at work, it only took a press conference for Nigeria's economy to almost double in size and become by some distance the biggest in Africa. Much has changed since 1990 when the economy was last properly assessed, but no one had realized how much the economy had been under-valued. Now worth around 510 billion dollars, it's the 26th largest in the world. Nigeria may now have claimed the No. 1 spot, but South Africa has a far smaller population and average incomes are still considerably higher there.

On the basis of the real votes counted, Fidesz appears to be coasting to victory in this election and probably to another 2/3 majority in parliament. Four years after winning a landslide victory, this result is a tribute to the leadership powers of Prime Minister Viktor Orban, according to Fidesz's supporters. While opposition parties have accused him throughout the campaign of undermining Hungarian democracy in order to stay in charge. These partial figures also suggest a strong showing for the far right Jobbik Party. It now seems likely that they will be the 2nd largest party in the new parliament.
The US navy has rescued a family with a seriously ill baby from their disabled sailing boat hundreds of kilometers off the coast of Mexico. The family had just begun on an attempt to sail around the world. Peter Bowes in Los Angeles has the story.
