Jordanian State television has confirmed that the country’s air force pilot who was captured by Islamic State militants has been killed. The group released a video that purported to show Moaz al-Kasasbeh being held in a metal cage surrounded by oil then the fuel is lit and the pilot is pictured burned alive. He was captured after he crashed near IS strong-hold while taking part in US-led operations over northern Syria. King Abdullah of Jordan called the pilot a hero who died defending his country.
約旦電視臺已經(jīng)證實被伊斯蘭武裝分子綁架的約旦軍事飛行員被殺。伊斯蘭恐怖組織發(fā)布視頻顯示Moaz al-Kasasbeh被關在一個鐵籠子里,周圍撒滿汽油,隨即汽油被點燃,飛行員被活活燒死。該飛行員在參與美國領導的對敘利亞北部空襲中飛機墜毀在伊斯蘭控制據(jù)點附近地區(qū),隨即被俘。約旦國王阿卜杜拉稱贊該飛行員為保衛(wèi)國家的英雄。
? pilot Moaz died defending his beliefs, homeland and nation. He joins all the marches who made ultimate sacrifice before him, for dear Jordan. Today, we stand shoulder to shoulder with the family of the martyr hero Moaz, with our people and our armed forces in this tragedy.
飛行員Moaz因保衛(wèi)他的信仰,他的家園他的祖國而犧牲。他為保衛(wèi)約旦參加了戰(zhàn)斗全然不顧個人安危。今天我們與我們的英雄Moaz的家人,我們的人民還有我們的武裝力量,肩并肩的站在一起,共同面對這突如其來的悲劇。
Speaking in Washington, President Obama said if the video of the murder was authentic and was a further indication of barbarity of IS. He added that the killing would re-double the determination of the US-led coalition to defeat the militants.
在華盛頓,美國總統(tǒng)表示如果謀殺視頻是真實的這進一步證實了IS恐怖組織的殘忍性。他還說此次謀殺事件將使美國領導的空襲聯(lián)盟加倍增加對武裝力量的打擊力度。
Members of Parliament in Britain have voted overwhelmingly in favor of controversial scientific technique that would allow the creation of babies using DNA from three people. If the measures were approved by the House of Lords, Britain would become the first country to legalize the procedure. Scientists say it could prevent children inheriting certain life threatening diseases. Here’s our health correspondent James Gallagher explains.
英國議會成員以壓倒性投票支持利用DNA技術讓未來出生兒童基因可同時遺傳三個人基因。如果上議院通過此項措施英國將成為世界上第一個允許“三人育子”合法化的國家??茖W家稱這項措施可以預防某些嚴重遺傳疾病的患病風險。下面是本臺記者發(fā)回的報道。
Doctors want to create babies from two women and one man in order to prevent deadly genetic diseases. The aim is to correct defects in a tiny shortage in the body that convert food to usable energy. These mitochondria are passed only from mother to child. The scientist's solution is to combine the parents’ DNA with a healthy mitochondria from a donor woman. Evidence suggests the technique would be safe but nobody can be certain. It also raises ethical questions.
醫(yī)生們想通過一父兩母的遺傳基因防止新生兒患某種嚴重遺傳疾病的風險。目的是修復身體缺陷將食物轉(zhuǎn)化為可用能源。這些線粒體只能通過母親傳輸給孩子??茖W家的實驗是計劃把一對父母的DNA和一位女性捐贈者提供的健康線粒體結(jié)合。有證據(jù)顯示這項技術是安全的,但是還沒有具體案例可以證實。這一措施也引起了倫理問題的探討。
The Ratings agency Standrad & Poor’s has to paid nearly 1.4 billion dollars to the US authorities to settle a legal claim that it knowingly inflated its ratings of mortgage investments. The ratings were issued over several years on the Subprime mortgage bonds that triggered the financial crisis of 2008. The US attorney general Eric Holder said the agency’s actions have been a factor in the crisis.
標準普爾評級服務公司將支付約14億美元就美國聯(lián)邦以及州政府調(diào)查達成和解。評級機構在過去幾年債券抵押工作中失誤引發(fā)了2008年的金融危機。美國司法部長埃里克霍爾德稱該危機的工作失誤是引發(fā)經(jīng)濟危機的重要原因。
“On more than one occasion, the company's leadership ignored senior analysts who warned that the company had given top ratings to financial products that were failing to perform as advertised, As S&P admits under this settlement, company executives complained that the company declined to downgrade under performing assets, because it was worried that doing so would hurt the company's business. This strategy did major harm, major harm to the larger economy, contributing to the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.US attorney general Eric Holder.
公司領導不止一次忽視高級分析師的警告稱公司提供了最高的信用評級而廣告,金融產(chǎn)業(yè)并未能履行。標準普爾承認存在這種結(jié)算,公司高管抱怨稱該公司拒絕降低不良資產(chǎn)是因為其擔心這種做法會降低公司業(yè)務,而事實證明這一做法造成了重大危機。這一策略造成的主要傷害是經(jīng)濟影響,是自大蕭條以來最嚴重的一次經(jīng)濟危機。總檢察長埃里克這樣說。
