www.T BBC 新闻100 篇BBC News Item 1 政治:英国首相确定大选时间The BBC has learned that the British Prime Minister Gordon Brown has decided that the British general election will take place on May 6th. Mr. Brown will go to Buckingham Palace tomorrow Tuesday to ask Queen Elizabeth to dissolve parliament, and then make a formal announcement of the election date. That will start the official election campaign, which, a BBC correspondent says, will be dominated by issues of taxation and spending in the wake of the global recession.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 is embroiled again in internal strife. Two former cabinet ministers have called for secret ballot of members 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 Watson reports.The two former cabinet ministers Geoff Hoon and Patricia Hewitt had stunned everyone at Westminster with their last-minute efforts to challenge Gordon Brown‟s leadership. But Downing Street 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 with little apparent enthusiasm. So the latest challenge looks likely to be short lift. Although many within the Labour Party doubt Mr. Brown‟s leadership qualities, they also seem to think it would only 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 nuclear deterrence if an international agreement is reached to cut the world‟s nuclear arsenals. Mr. Brown is expected to tell a special session of the United Nations Security Council on Thursday that he‟l l be willing to give up one of four royal navy submarines that carry Trident nuclear missiles. Officials are insisting that cost isn‟t a factor here. Here‟s our defence correspondent Nick Childs.Gordon Brown is saying he‟l l be ready to throw part of the trident force into the port in the context of a much bigger global disarmament deal. He said so in general terms before. This offer though is more concrete. There is a growing sense that to avoid what some fear could be a sudden cascade of new nuclear states, the established nuclear powers need to do more in terms of disarmament to keep the proliferation regime intact. The Prime Minister will hope his move will be seen as an important gesture. But the key to the process will be the actions of the big players, the United 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 hundreds more troops to Afghanistan, bringing the total number of British troops there to about 9,500. Britain has the second largest NA TO contingent in Afghanistan after the United States. Our defense1www.T correspondent Caroline Wyatt reports.In his statement on Afghanistan, it‟s believed Mr. Brown will say he‟s agreed in principle to send around 500 extra British troops to Helmand. The military advice says that extra forces are needed to help maintain progress and dominate the ground more effectively to keep the Taliban out of key areas. However, there will be caveats. The Prime Minister will want assurances from military chiefs that the extra troops will be properly equipped. But he‟l l also expect Britain‟s NA TO partners to follow suit by offering more forces themselves. NA TO defense ministers are likely to discuss troop levels on a meeting formally in Bratislava next week.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 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. But on Monday, the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Israeli parliament the building project would continue. Paul Wood reports from Jerusalem.Mr. Netanyahu has been presented with a choice, a breach with the right-wing members of his coalition, or with the Americans. With his speech to the Knesset, he seems to have chosen to put the needs of domestic politics first. It seems the Americans are so angry because they believe Mr. Netanyahu went back on an understanding. This was apparently that Israel would not push forward of any big new settlement building projects in East Jerusalem. This was necessary of the Palestinians were to be persuaded to join the long delayed negotiations so painstakingly put together by US mediators.BBC News Item 19 军事:美国将继续驻军阿富汗Leading United States officials have said the American military will continue its presence in Afghanistan for a number of years despite beginning to withdraw in 2011. In a series of media5www.T reappearances, officials stressed that the date should be seen as the beginning of handing over responsibility to Afghan forces. Imtiaz Tyab report from Washington.Speaking on a Sunday morning political chat show, the Defense Secretary Robert Gates said that despite President Obama‟s plan to begin withdrawing the troops from the region in July, 2011, the US was likely to maintain a significant military presence in Afghanistan for a number of years. The Defense Secretary said the pullout date was said to underline the urgent need for the Afghans to speed up recruiting and training soldiers and getting them into the field. A comment‟s followed criticism from opposition Republicans who say announcing a withdraw date sent a dangerous signal to insurgents.BBC News Item 20 政治:奥巴马推迟访问印尼和澳大利亚President Obama is postponing a trip to Indonesia and Australia, so he can stay in Washington to try to get his health care reforms pass by congress. Mr. Obama had already delayed the long arranged trip once and was due to set off on Sunday. But with the crucial vote on the reform is expected within days, the trip has been put off entirely until June. From Washington Mark Martell reports.The president‟s make changes to American health care insurance system, his flagship domestic legislation is dragged on for over a year and divided the country. He will be damaged if he can‟t get it through. The climax is near, so far there is no sign of any republicans voting for it, its fate lies in the hands of handful in the president‟s own party, who either feel it allows for easier abortion or who simply fear a back lash in November‟s elections, if they vote for a measures their constitution dislike.BBC News Item 21 政治:英国新首相After days of political horse-trading the UK finally has a new government and a new Prime Minister, following the resignation of Labour‟s Gordon Brown on Tuesday evening.Since last Thursday‟s general election resulted in a hung parliament, a situation in which none of the political parties has an overall majority, British politicians have been attempting to form a coalition government.Such a government is comparatively rare in the UK. Indeed this is the first coalition since the Second World War.BBC News Item 22 军事:奥巴马对核安全峰会的评价President Barack Obama says the summit conference on nuclear security which has just ended in Washington was a testament to what is possible when nations come together. He said the 49 countries who attended had come to a four-point plan for future success in securing the security of all nuclear materials produced or stockpiled around the globe. Mr. Obama said the summit had made a real contribution to a safer world.BBC News Item 23 政治:希拉里出访莫斯科The American Secretary of States Hillary Clinton is in Moscow to try to persuade Russia to support American policy on Iran. The US wants Russia to agree to the option of imposing6www.T additional sanctions on Iran if it does not suspend its uranium enrichment program by the end of the year. Richard Galpin reports from Moscow.As a permanent member of United Nations Security Council, Russia has the power to veto resolutions. And Moscow has always said it does not believe sanctions are an effective way of promoting change. But recently, President Medvedev has indicated his government made ultimately accept that sanctions are inevitable. There are other big issues to be discussed while Mrs. Clinton is in Russia, including the plan for Moscow and Washington to sign a new treaty in early December for a further cut in their large arsenals of nuclear weapons.BBC News Item 24 军事:美国和联合国敦促巴以恢复和平谈判The United States and the United Nations are urging Israel and Palestinians to resume peace talks after a day of unrest in Jerusalem. The American Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Washington wanted to insure both sides were fully committed to peace efforts. The UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon condemned as illegal recent Israeli plans to build new settlements in East Jerusalem. Barbara Plett reports from New Y ork.Ban Ki-moon urged restraint in Jerusalem, reminding Israelis and Palestinians of the final statues of the city were supposed to be decided in negotiations. He repeated condemnation of Israeli plans to build 1,600 new homes for Jewish settlers in the occupied eastern part of the city, stating again that such settlements are illegal under international law. On Friday, the Secretary General is set to attend a ministerial meeting of the quartet which groups the UN, the European Union, Russia and America. He said members will discuss additional measures to trying rescue tentative steps to resume Israeli-Palestinian peace talks although he didn‟t say what they were.BBC News Item 25 经济:美国8 月份汽车销售成绩大好Car manufacturers in the United States reported their best results so far this year in August, in large part due to a government scheme aimed at encouraging people to trade in their old cars for more fuel-efficient new ones. The top results among American carmakers were posted by Ford which saw its sales rise by 17% from August of last year. The results held increase U S manufacturing output as a whole for the first time since January of last year. President Obama said the latest figures indicate that the American economy is on the path to recovery.BBC News Item 26 经济:高盛投资被控涉嫌诈骗Financial regulators in the United States have accused the investment bank Goldman Sachs of fraud related to the collapse of the American housing market in 2007. The Securities and Exchange Commission is taking civil action against the bank. Michelle Fleury sent this report from the floor of the New Y ork Stock Exchange.The Securities and Exchange Commission alleges the bank sold investors a financial product based on subprime mortgages that was designed to lose value. Goldman Sachs has denied the allegations and says it will defend the firm and its reputation. This is the first time that the US government has explicitly accused one of Wall Street‟s premier institutions of fraud relating to the collapse of the US housing market.7www.T BBC News Item 27 经济:美国财政官员失职An investigation of United States has found that the country‟s top financial regulator, the Securities and the Exchange Commissioner SEC, fail to uncover the 65 billion dollar fraud carried out by the convicted financier Bernard Madoff over a 16-year period, despite 5 separate investigations in his business dealings. Greg Wood reports.The report by the SEC‟s expected general David Kotz reads like a catalog of bungled opportunities to catch Bernard Madoff, long before he owned up to the largest fraud in US history. He was investigated five times. SEC staff caught him in lies but failed to follow them up. They rejected offers from whistleblowers to provide additional evidence. Many of the investigators were inexperienced. The scale of the SEC‟s incompetence is laid bare by this report.BBC News Item 28 经济:美国银行同意支付罚款了结控诉The Bank of America has agreed to pay 33 million dollars to settle accusations by the US government over billions of dollars of bonuses paid out last year by its investment on Merrill Lynch. Bank of America took over Merrill Lynch to save it from collapse in a deal backed by American taxpayers‟ money. John Bithry reports.Bank of America had promised its shareholders that no bonuses would be paid to bankers at Merrill Lynch without its express permission. It‟s agreed to buy the struggling investment bank in September. On the same weekend that talks to save Lehman Brothers from collapse failed. Like Lehman, Merrill Lynch was brought to its knees by debt links to the US housing market that became toxic and lost its value. But after Merrill was rescued by BOA, it went ahead and paid its staff 3.6 billion dollars in bonuses anyway. Shortly afterwards Bank of America was forced to go to the government for billions of dollars in extra taxpayer support, and the revelation of the payments caused a public outcry.BBC News Item 29 经济:加州财政预算出了问题After weeks of negotiations, the governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger has reached an outline agreement with legislative leaders on a plan to tackle the state‟s massive budget shortfall. The deal, which will have to be approved by the state legislature, includes plans for billions of dollars in budget cuts, but no tax rises. Peter Bolger reports.California has a budget shortfall of 26 billion dollars. State workers have been put on short time and many social and education services have been cut. The state has even resorted to issuing IOUs to companies it does business with and to individuals who are owed tax refunds. Governor Schwarzenegger described the comprised deal as a basic agreement to close the state‟s huge deficit. He and fellow Republicans have refused to raise taxes, all the opposition Democrats said fought to preserve social services.BBC News Item 30 军事:美国德州军事基地枪击案The United States army has formally charged the military officer accused of carrying out last week‟s mass shooting at the Fort Hood military base in Texas. The officer, Major Nidal Malik Hasan, an army psychiatrist, has been under armed guard in a hospital since being wounded in theshooting. Mathew Prize reports from New Y ork.8www.T There are still many questions surrounding the mass shooting at the America‟s largest military base, but one of them has now been answered. Major Nidal Hasan, an army psychiatrist who was due to be deployed to Afghanistan, has been charged with 13 counts of murder. That could rise if prosecutors decide also to charge him with the murder of an unborn child being carried by one of his victims. He will be prosecuted in a military court. If convicted, he could face the death penalty, although no one has actually been executed under the US military justice system for almost 50 years.BBC News Item 31 军事:奥巴马就军事基地枪击案发言President Barack Obama has told memorial service at the Fort hood army base in Texas that United States must never forget the 13 men and women who died in the shooting there last week. He said the killings couldn‟t be justified.“It may be hard to comprehend the twisted logic that led to this tragedy. But this much we do know no faith justifies these murderous and craven acts. No just and loving god looks upon them with favor. For what is done we know the killer will be met with justice in this world and the next.”The president paid tribute to those who‟d been not able, as he put it, “to escape the horror of war, even in the comfort of hom e.”BBC News Item 32 科技:美国奋进号航天飞机升空The American Space Shuttle Endeavor has blasted off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on its sixth attempt after more than a month of delays caused by fuel leaks and thunderstorms. Bill Gerstenmaier of NASA said finally the weather had been favorable and the shuttle crew were looking ahead to completing the installation of the Japanese Kibo laboratory on the space station.We had a great launch today. We were ready. The weather finally cooperated and we had just an awesome launch today. Again, I would caution you that the mission is very challenging in front of us. The five EV As, the robotic activities will take the absolute best the teams have both in Houston and in orbit. And the teams are fully prepared they are ready to go do what they need to go do and we look forward to the exciting activities as we install the Exposed Facility out on the Kibo module.BBC News Item 33 科技:登月飞行A panel of experts appointed by the White House has warned that current plans to send astronauts back to the moon in preparation for manned missions to Mars are just not viable. One of the panel members Li Ruoqiao says the space agency NASA hasn‟t been given enough funds to realize the plans.“That is when the visions for space aspirations were first announced in 2004 there was expectation of a certain budget level of the next several years. In fact over the last five years those numbers are nothing realized. So because of that we are in a pickle that we are in now.”The experts say the current budget of the space agency NASA would need to be increased by billions of dollars. Without the extra money, the experts say, NASA would have to work with private companies now trying to embark on commercial space flights.9www.T BBC News Item 34 灾难:美国加州森林大火Wildfires are a feature of the California Summer but it‟s unusual for them to break out so close to major centers of population. It‟s hot here and getting hotter which is driving the brush making it all the more in cindery, and forecast is such that there has been a speculation it could take firefighters a week to bring this blaze under control. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is pleading with people in the path of the flames to evacuate as soon as they‟r e told to do so.BBC News Item 35 政治:抗议苏丹总统选举Most of the main opposition parties in Sudan are withdrawing from all the elections this month —the first multi-party elections since 1986. They won‟t take part because of concerns about fraud and security. On Wednesday, the presidential candidate for the former southern rebels Y assir Arman pulled out. President Obama‟s Special Envoy General Scott Gration has been in Khartoum trying to save the elections. James Copnall sent this report from Khartoum.Several major opposition parties have announced they will boycott the Sudanese elections at every level. Earlier today, they told the BBC they would boycott the presidential elections in protest of what they believe will not be free and fair polls. Now several of the parties have decided not to compete in the parliamentary or state elections either. The decision strikes a real blow at the credibility of elections which were meant to hold the democratic transformation in Sudan.BBC News Item 36 军事:苏丹达尔富尔问题In what‟s been seen as a significant step towards peace in Darfur, the Sudanese government has signed a temporary ceasefire agreement with JAM, one of the main rebel factions. The other main rebel group has so far refused talks with the government. James Copnall reports from Khartoum.The deal is believed to include a temporary ceasefire and a framework agreement for future talks. The Sudanese President Omar Al Bashir said the death sentence against the JAM fighters convicted of attacking Omdurman had been quashed, and 30% of them had been released as a goodwill measure. His act details of the agreement are not yet clear, but the fact has just been signed is a significant step forward in the peace process in Darfur. United Nations estimates that 300,000 people have died in Darfur, but the Sudanese government puts the figure at 10,000.BBC News Item 37 军事:沙特的武装计划袭击石油装置The authorities in Saudi Arabia say they‟ve arrested more than 100 militants suspected of links to Al-Qaeda who were planning to attack oil installation in the kingdom.

All the wrong messagesExpediency(方便;权宜之计) and parsimony(过分节俭=extremely stingy)will undermine(gradually destroy) the modest aims of the Afghan strategyMar 17th 2012 | from the print editionTHE news fromAfghanistangets grimmer(serious;horrible;harsh;rough). The massacre(屠杀)of 16 civilians, nine of them children, by an apparently deranged American marine sergeant came swiftly after the killing of six British soldiers by a roadside bomb. That followed a wave of violent protests, leading to 29 deaths including the murder of two American military advisers, which resulted from the burning of copies of the Koran(可兰经或者说古兰经穆斯林的)on an American base. Shortly before that, video footage(连续镜头)showed American troops urinating(撒尿;拉屎是defalcate)on the corpses of recently slain(slay的变体,被杀害的)Taliban.These dreadful(stirring up fear; displeasing)events reinforce(shore up 加强)the widespread feeling in NATO(北约) countries that Afghanistan is a hopeless cause, that the presence of Western troops is making things worse, and that the sooner they are brought home the better (see article). Barack Obama, America’s president, and David Cameron, Britain’s prime minister, who met this week, were keen(sharp inperception;sharp-pointed;eager)to point out to war-weary voters that an end of sorts is in sight. Both leaders are now talking about American and British troops pulling back from their lead combat role by the middle of 2013. Mr Obama, who will havereversed(countermand;withdrawl 这里就是撤回) the 33,000-strong troop surge he ordered in late 2009 by the end of this summer, would like to announce a further drawdown of forces in good time for the presidential election in November. This will be made to look just about consistent with NATO’s policy of foreign com bat forces leaving by the end of 2014 after a transition(过渡)in which the responsibility for security, region by region, gradually passes to well-trained Afghan forces.NATO has a clear strategy designed to leave the Afghan government able to cope after foreign combat troops have gone and to foster(adopt and encourage)political reconciliation(调和) with the Taliban, but the sense that a scramble for(争夺)the exit is already under way is giving encouragement to the enemy. The original timetable was tight, counting on the ability of increasingly competent, well-trained Afghan forces to fill the space left by NATO soldiers withdrawing from their combat roles. But senior commanders (高级指挥官)felt it to be realistic. Accelerating it, they believe, risks demanding too much of Afghan forces too soon.Not victory, but not defeat or betrayalFor Afghanistan to have a stable future, the government needs to be reasonably solid(这里指可靠), the security forces reasonably competent and the Taliban convinced that their only access t o power lies through reconciliation. In this, the “strategic partnership agreement” that the American and Afghan governments have been negotiating for the best part of a year is vital. For the Afghans, it will determine what kind of military helpAmericaprovides after 2014. Their wish-list includes surveillance(监控monitor)and reconnaissance(侦查), close air support, air transport and medical evacuation(伤患后送). In return, America will keep bases from which it can conduct counter-terrorism operations to prevent “core” al-Qaeda(基地组织)from re-emerging as a threat to the West.Thanks to compromises(双方为了达到共同利益所做出的让步,妥协)on both sides, an agreement seemed close—until the marine’s rampage(狂暴angry and destructive behaviors)last weekend. Now a fresh complication(复杂情况) may be the issue of whether American forces get immunity(免疫;豁免exemption)from prosecution(sue litigate 起诉控告) in Afghanistan. America will insist on immunity—it pulled its forces out of Iraq rather than accept that they could be prosecuted there, as Afghan ministers well know—but on other issues it should show more patience and generosity.The second area of strain is over the cost of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) in the years to come. The target strength of the ANSF, which includes the army and the police, is 352,000—smaller than the recommendation of the previous American commander inAfghanistan, General David Petraeus. But America and its allies, who will be footing the bill(付账), have quietly decided that even that number, which will cost $6 bi llion, is too big. After an initial “surge”, the ANSF will have to slim down(这里指减少到slim是瘦身)to about 230,000, with a price tag(价格标签)of around $4 billion a year.This parsimony is a mistake. The aftermath(余波,后果)of the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan is a warning against abrupt departures, leaving ill-resourced governments behind. The country collapsed into a civil war that killed many thousands of civilians and spawned(respawn是多塔里面的英雄重生,少个re大家懂得)the Taliban. NATO’s strategy is designed to prevent a repeat of that disaster by providing the Afghan government with adequate security forces and encouraging political reconciliation between it and its enemies.Avoiding chaos(extreme disorder)would not be victory; but nor would it be defeat and betrayal. Even that modest goal is now threatened by the creeping(行动缓慢的毛骨悚然的美国口语中creepy很常用,比如说某人恶心到恐怖) reluctance of Mr Obama and his allies to stick to their guns. Afghans deserve better.。

BBC新闻听力100篇
BBC新闻听力100篇News Item 1The Japanese government has played down concern about a possible nuclear meltdown, following a big explosion at a nuclear power station in the north of the country. The blast occurred a day after the area was hit by a powerful earthquake and tsunami. A top government offi cial, Yukio Edano, said a steel container encasing the nuclear reactor had not been ruptured by the blast.News Item 2Fifty thousand Japanese military personnel had been ordered to join the huge rescue and relief operation following the earthquake and tsunami. More than 1,000 people are feared dead. About 400 bodies were found in the town of Rikuzentakata, and Japanese media reports say 10,000 people are unaccounted for in Minamisanriku. Damian Grammaticas in the port of Sendai says the scenes of devastation there are astonishing.News Item 3International disaster relief teams have been sent to Japan. The United Nations said a nine strong UN team of experts would include several Japanese speakers. Britain said it was sending expert assistance after receiving a request from Japan. Singapore is also deploying an urban search and rescue team. American forces stationed in Japan have already been involved in rescue operations, and more than 50 territories and countries have offered assistance.News Item 4As offi cials in Japan struggle to assess the extent of the damage following the tsunami caused by a massive earthquake, it’s been announced that some 300 people are known to have been killed and more than 500 are unaccounted for in the area around the northern coastal city of Sendai. The 8.9-magnitude quake, the biggest ever recorded in Japan, sent a wave of water several meters high sweeping far inland. Its epicenter was about 130km off Japan’s east coast. In the capital Tokyo, several hundred kilometers away, buildings swayed violently during the quake, which was followed by a series of powerful aftershocks.News Item 5Slowly but relentlessly, Colonel Gaddafi’s forces seem to be winning the battle for Ras Lanuf. Opposition fi ghters are still in the town, but they are under intense pressure.
