CNN News: 美國副總統(tǒng)訪問朝韓非軍事地區(qū)

We're back to our daily coverage of explaining international events today. It starts with an American leader's visit to a place that's still technically at war.
歡迎回到今天的每日新聞報道。一名美國領導人訪問了一個嚴格來說仍處于戰(zhàn)爭狀態(tài)的地區(qū)。
No peace treaty has ever been signed on the Korean peninsula, though an armistice formally stopped the fighting and the conflict in 1953. The U.S. fought in the war. It's now an ally of South Korea. Yesterday, U.S. Vice President Mike Pence visited the demilitarized zone, the DMZ, the border line that divides North and South Korea.
雖然1953年的停戰(zhàn)協(xié)定正式結束了爭斗和沖突，但是朝鮮半島從未簽署和平條約。美國參與了朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭?，F(xiàn)在，美國仍是韓國的盟友。昨天，美國副總統(tǒng)邁克·彭斯訪問了朝韓非軍事地區(qū)（DMZ），即朝鮮和韓國的邊境線。
Standing less than 100 feet from North Korean soldiers, the vice president said the Trump administration would have a different approach to North Korea than previous administrations did.
站在離朝鮮士兵不足100英尺的地方，該美國副總統(tǒng)表示，特朗普政府對待朝鮮的方式將有別于前任政府。
We're going to abandon the failed policy of strategic patience, but we're going to redouble our efforts to bring diplomatic and economic pressure to bear on North Korea. Our hope is that we can resolve this issue peaceably.
我們將放棄失敗的戰(zhàn)略性忍耐政策，但我們將加倍努力，對朝鮮進行外交和經(jīng)濟施壓。我們希望可以和平解決朝鮮問題。
To do that, the U.S. is relying heavily in North Korea's main ally, China, to pressure North Korea to give up its controversial nuclear program.
為達成此愿，美國高度依賴朝鮮的主要盟友中國向朝鮮施壓，迫使其放棄備受爭議的核項目。
So far, the North has indicated it won't. And though it tried out a missile on Sunday, the weapon apparently blew up right after it launched.
到目前為止，朝鮮仍表示不會放棄核項目。雖然周日朝鮮試射了一枚導彈，不過導彈似乎在發(fā)射后就爆炸了。
U.S. officials don't think it was a long range missile that could reach other continents, but South Korea has said that if the North tests one of those, or tests a nuclear weapon again, the North would receive a powerful punishment.
美國官方認為這枚導彈并非是能夠到達其他大州的遠程導彈。但是韓國表示，如果朝鮮再次進行導彈測試或核武器測試，那它將受到有力懲罰。
