聽力原文及翻譯
President Joe Biden signed a 1.2 trillion dollar package of spending bills that Congress just passed, ending the threat of a potential partial government shutdown. The legislation was approved by senators early Saturday, with passage coming nearly six months into the budget year, the White House said. Biden signed the legislation Saturday at his home in Wilmington, Delaware, where he was spending the weekend.
喬·拜登總統(tǒng)簽署了國會(huì)剛剛通過的1.2萬億美元的一攬子支出法案,結(jié)束了政府部分關(guān)閉的威脅。白宮說,參議院周六早些時(shí)候批準(zhǔn)了這項(xiàng)法案,在預(yù)算年度開始近六個(gè)月后通過。拜登星期六在特拉華州威爾明頓的家中簽署了這項(xiàng)法案,他正在那里度周末。
The budget process was slowed by conservatives who pushed for more policy mandates and steeper spending cuts than a Democratic-led Senate or White House would countenance. Biden says the agreement was a compromise, which means neither side got everything it wanted. Lebanon's displaced celebrate Ramadan amid fears the border conflict might become, quote, "the new normal" .
預(yù)算程序被保守派拖慢,他們要求更多的政策授權(quán)和更大幅度的開支削減,而不是民主黨領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的參議院或白宮所能支持的。拜登說,這項(xiàng)協(xié)議是一種妥協(xié),這意味著雙方都沒有得到自己想要的一切。黎巴嫩流離失所者慶祝齋月,擔(dān)心邊境沖突可能成為“新常態(tài)”。
