波蘭舉國(guó)悼念飛機(jī)失事中遇難的總統(tǒng)

Cities across Poland fell silent for two minutes Sunday afternoon as the country remembered President Lech Kaczynski and the
dozens of other top officials who were killed in a plane crash in Russia Saturday.
波蘭各地城市周日下午默哀兩分鐘，悼念該國(guó)總統(tǒng)卡欽斯基(Lech Kaczynski)和幾十位其他高級(jí)官員，這些人上周六在俄羅斯因飛機(jī)失事遇難。

As memorial services were held around Poland, the nation was in shock and mourning. At noon (6 a.m. ET), just before the two-minute
memorial, thousands of bells and sirens rung out to commemorate the dead.
隨著悼念活動(dòng)在波蘭各地展開(kāi)，這個(gè)國(guó)家陷入震驚和悲痛之中。當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間中午，兩分鐘的默哀開(kāi)始前一刻，波蘭各地鐘聲和汽笛長(zhǎng)鳴，以悼念這些死難者。

Mr. Kaczynski's body arrived in Warsaw later in the afternoon and was driven in a cortege from the airport through the capital's city
 center and the narrow streets of its Old Town before arriving at the presidential palace, which served not only as Mr. Kaczynski's official
 residence, but also as his private home.
卡欽斯基的遺體周日下午晚些時(shí)候運(yùn)抵華沙，靈車從機(jī)場(chǎng)經(jīng)由華沙市中心和華沙老城的狹窄街道來(lái)到總統(tǒng)府，這里不僅是卡欽斯基的官邸，也是他的私人寓所。

Mr. Kaczynski, his wife and 94 others in a high-level delegation were killed Saturday when their plane crashed on landing outside the western
Russian city of Smolensk, officials said. Russian state television reported that the Tupolev-154 jet crashed about a kilometer short of the
runway on its second attempt to land in heavy fog at the Smolensk-Severnyi military airport, shortly before 11 a.m. Moscow time.
官員們說(shuō)，搭載卡欽斯基夫婦及波蘭高級(jí)代表團(tuán)其他94人的飛機(jī)上周六在俄羅斯西部城市斯摩棱斯克機(jī)場(chǎng)降落時(shí)失事，機(jī)上人員全部遇難。俄羅斯國(guó)家電視臺(tái)報(bào)導(dǎo)說(shuō)，
莫斯科時(shí)間上周六將近11點(diǎn)時(shí)，卡欽斯基等人乘坐的圖-154噴氣機(jī)在距跑道約一公里的地方墜毀，當(dāng)時(shí)這架飛機(jī)試圖在濃霧彌漫的斯摩棱斯克Severnyi軍用機(jī)場(chǎng)第二次降落。

Russian officials had initially said 97 people were killed but later revised the figure to 96.
俄羅斯官員們最初說(shuō)，機(jī)上有97人喪生，但后來(lái)又修正說(shuō)遇難人數(shù)為96人。

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on Saturday called an emergency meeting of the cabinet before flying to Smolensk, where he and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin paid their respects at the crash site. Mr. Putin laid flowers on Mr. Kaczynski's coffin as an honor guard prepared to load it for the trip to Warsaw.
波蘭總理圖斯克(Donald Tusk )上周六召開(kāi)了內(nèi)閣緊急會(huì)議，隨后飛赴斯摩棱斯克，他在那里與俄羅斯總理普京(Vladimir Putin)一道前往飛機(jī)失事現(xiàn)場(chǎng)悼念，在一名儀仗兵整理卡欽斯基的靈柩、準(zhǔn)備將其運(yùn)往華沙時(shí)，普京將鮮花放在了靈柩上。

The government is working normally, according to the prime minister, as are the organizations and military commands whose leaders perished in the crash, with their deputies temporarily taking over their duties.
據(jù)圖斯克說(shuō)，波蘭政府運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)正常，那些其首長(zhǎng)在此次飛機(jī)失事中遇難的政府部門和軍事司令部也在正常運(yùn)作，遇難官員的職責(zé)由其副手暫行代理。

A joint Polish-Russian team of investigators were preparing to examine the contents of the black boxes from the Tupolev-154 jet. Alexander Bastrykin, head of Russia's Investigative Committee, told Mr. Putin Sunday that the preliminary analysis from the black boxes showed no sign of mechanical problems with the plane. 'The pilot was informed about the difficult weather conditions but nevertheless made the decision to land,' Mr. Bastrykin said.
由波蘭和俄羅斯兩國(guó)組成的聯(lián)合調(diào)查組正準(zhǔn)備研究這架圖-154飛機(jī)上黑匣子記錄的內(nèi)容。俄羅斯調(diào)查委員會(huì)主席巴斯特金(Alexander Bastrykin)周日對(duì)普京說(shuō)，對(duì)黑匣子的初步分析顯示，飛機(jī)沒(méi)有發(fā)生機(jī)械故障的跡象。巴斯特金說(shuō)，這架圖-154噴氣機(jī)的飛行員曾被告知地面的天氣狀況不佳，但他仍決定降落。

Polish officials haven't commented publicly on the possible cause of the crash, while their Russian counterparts have pointed to crew error as the likely cause. The plane crashed short of the runway in heavy fog after controllers told the pilot to divert to Moscow or Minsk, Russian officials said.
波蘭官員一直未對(duì)此次飛機(jī)失事可能的原因公開(kāi)發(fā)表評(píng)論，而俄羅斯官員們則指出，機(jī)組人員的失誤可能是導(dǎo)致飛機(jī)失事的原因。俄羅斯官員說(shuō)，這架飛機(jī)在濃霧中未能降落在跑道上，隨即失事，此前塔臺(tái)控制人員曾告訴飛行員，要他轉(zhuǎn)往莫斯科或明斯克的機(jī)場(chǎng)降落。

According to the Polish Constitution, the speaker of the Sejm, Poland's lower house of Parliament, becomes the interim head of state in case of the death of the president. The interim president is required to call early presidential elections within two weeks from the day the president dies. The elections must take place within two months from the announcement of the election date. Bronislaw Komorowski, a key candidate in the presidential elections that would normally be scheduled in the autumn, is Poland's current Sejm speaker.
根據(jù)波蘭憲法，波蘭國(guó)會(huì)眾議院的議長(zhǎng)在總統(tǒng)身亡的情況下將成為臨時(shí)國(guó)家元首。這位臨時(shí)總統(tǒng)將在總統(tǒng)死亡之日起兩周內(nèi)宣布提前舉行總統(tǒng)選舉。而選舉必須在宣布提前進(jìn)行總統(tǒng)選舉之日起兩個(gè)月內(nèi)舉行。波蘭的總統(tǒng)選舉原定于今年秋季舉行，該國(guó)眾議院議長(zhǎng)科莫羅斯基(Bronislaw Komorowski)是一位重要候選人。

Saturday's crash wiped out much of the Polish political elite from left and right, including the core figures in conservative opposition. Traveling with the president was the governor of the central bank, Slawomir Skrzypek, whose death may mean a change of the balance of power in the rate-setting Monetary Policy Council. First deputy governor Piotr Wiesolek has become the acting governor of the National Bank of Poland after Mr. Skrzypek's death.
上周六的飛機(jī)失事使波蘭左、右翼的政治精英大部分喪生，保守派反對(duì)黨的核心人物也在事故中遇難。與總統(tǒng)一同遇難的還有波蘭央行行長(zhǎng)斯克希佩克(Slawomir Skrzypek)、他的死亡可能意味著央行利率決策機(jī)構(gòu)貨幣政策委員會(huì)(Monetary Policy Council)內(nèi)的力量平衡將發(fā)生改變?？讼Ｅ蹇擞鲭y后，波蘭央行第一副行長(zhǎng)維索雷克(Piotr Wiesolek)已出任央行代理行長(zhǎng)。

Poland also lost its key military leaders, including Chief of Staff Gen. Franciszek Gagor. One of the key presidential contenders also died in the crash.
波蘭數(shù)位重要的軍事領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人也在空難中喪生，其中包括總參謀長(zhǎng)岡戈?duì)?Franciszek Gagor)。波蘭一位重要的總統(tǒng)候選人人選也在此次事故中遇難。
