原文及翻譯
During the summer of 1914, many people in Europe felt very optimistic about the future. Modern technology was improving people's lives, political freedom was gradually increasing in many countries, and new artistic styles and scientific discoveries were being made. But later that summer, a terrible war began.
1914 年夏天，歐洲許多人對(duì)未來充滿樂觀。現(xiàn)代技術(shù)改善了人們的生活，許多國(guó)家的政治自由逐漸增加，新的藝術(shù)風(fēng)格和科學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn)層出不窮。但那年夏天晚些時(shí)候，一場(chǎng)可怕的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)爆發(fā)了。
In the early 20th century, the various countries of Europe competed with each other in an attempt to be the most powerful country on the continent. In each country, many of the political leaders wanted to control more land, more people, and more resources.
20 世紀(jì)初，歐洲各國(guó)相互競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，試圖成為歐洲大陸最強(qiáng)大的國(guó)家。在每個(gè)國(guó)家，許多政治領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人都想控制更多的土地、更多的人和更多的資源。
The First World War began when the Archduke of Austria-Hungary was assassinated. Austria-Hungary wanted to punish the assassin, who was from the small country of Serbia. This led to a serious dispute, and soon other countries were involved. Within a few weeks, a war had begun. On one side were Germany and Austria-Hungary, and on the other side were Russia, France, and Britain.
第一次世界大戰(zhàn)始于奧匈帝國(guó)大公被暗殺。奧匈帝國(guó)想懲罰來自小國(guó)塞爾維亞的刺客。這導(dǎo)致了一場(chǎng)嚴(yán)重的爭(zhēng)端，很快其他國(guó)家也參與其中。幾周之內(nèi)，戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)就爆發(fā)了。一方是德國(guó)和奧匈帝國(guó)，另一方是俄羅斯、法國(guó)和英國(guó)。
