Access is very, very difficult there. There were immense problems of having organized aid effort to so many people. You know, remember we are talking tens of thousands of people have been up there. The people who fled Sinjar are arriving in worsening conditions by the day. They've been exposed to this environment, lack of water, immense difficulties simply existing up there for some time now. And their needs are very great in deed.
想要到達(dá)北部山區(qū)是非常,非常困難的,對(duì)當(dāng)?shù)乇焕罕娊饩冉M織工作產(chǎn)生了很大阻礙。要記住,現(xiàn)在我們討論的是成千上萬(wàn)人正被困在山區(qū)里。那些逃到辛賈爾的人所處的環(huán)境更加惡劣,完全暴露在缺水的生存條件下,在這種情況下他們根本支撐不了多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間,對(duì)物資的需求量也是相當(dāng)大的。
The Vatican has urged Muslim leaders to condemn the actions of the Islamic State fighters in Iraq, calling them unspeakable criminal acts.

梵蒂岡方面已經(jīng)督促穆斯林領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人對(duì)伊斯蘭激進(jìn)組織對(duì)伊拉克的暴行進(jìn)行譴責(zé),稱他們的行為是一種難以表達(dá)的暴行。在一份聲明中,梵蒂岡列舉了伊斯蘭激進(jìn)組織的暴行包括屠殺,砍頭,刑法和絞刑,并稱這種做法都是伊斯蘭激進(jìn)組織對(duì)基督教和穆斯林的褻瀆。

來(lái)自世界衛(wèi)生組織的一個(gè)專(zhuān)家小組一致通過(guò)決定使用實(shí)驗(yàn)性藥物解決西非爆發(fā)的埃博拉病毒。
The WHO said that with more than 1,000 people killed so far, it was ethical to offer drugs that had not been tested on humans. Doctor Marie-Paul Kieny of the WHO told the BBC that the country's concern would now have to request and agree with the pharmaceutical companies on the use of the drugs. Liberia's Health Minister Walter Gwenigale has said the severity of the patients' illness would be taken into account when deciding who should be given the drugs.
世界衛(wèi)生組織表示目前已經(jīng)有1000多人死于埃博拉病毒,并且表示在人類(lèi)身上使用沒(méi)有經(jīng)過(guò)測(cè)驗(yàn)的藥物是有悖倫理的行為。世界衛(wèi)生組織的基尼醫(yī)生告訴BBC記者現(xiàn)在該國(guó)應(yīng)該關(guān)心的是不得不要求并且同意使用未經(jīng)測(cè)驗(yàn)的藥物用于患者身上。利比亞衛(wèi)生部長(zhǎng)Walter Gwenigale表示會(huì)根據(jù)患者患病的嚴(yán)重程度來(lái)決定誰(shuí)可以使用這些藥物。
Let me say how many doses of the drug I will give. This is an ethical issue. So if someone asks that they want me to try on them, I will have to see the chances of adequacy of giving. It depends on the stage of the disease. If it rose that they will not live whatever we do, we will be wasting the drug that we have given to them.
我說(shuō)給患者使用多少劑量的藥物是一個(gè)道德問(wèn)題,如果有一天有人想讓我在他身上做實(shí)驗(yàn)先試試,我必須看到一個(gè)充分的理由,這取決于病情發(fā)展到哪個(gè)階段,如果病情發(fā)展太快,無(wú)論我們給患者什么他們都不能再活下去,那樣我們也就浪費(fèi)了藥物。

The coroner gave an extraordinary amount of detail about the way Robin Williams was discovered, dead in his home in northern California. The preliminary findings of the Sheriff's office are that a suicide was the cause of death, asphyxia(窒息) due to hanging. Marin County Lieutenant and Deputy Coroner Keith Boyd said he was found in a sitting position with elbows around his neck. The coroner added his wife was the last to see him alive at 10:30 the night before she went to bed. She left the house the next day presuming he was asleep. His assistant raised alarm when he failed to respond to knocks on his bedroom door. The investigation into his death is continuing.

Officials in northwest Mexico say a private copper mine at the center of a pollution accident last week did not immediately alert the authorities that large quantities of toxic chemicals were spilling into a river. The authorities in the Mexican State of Sonora say the spill only came to light the next day when residents downstream noticed the river had turned orange. Water supplies to some 20,000 people had been cut off.

美國(guó)表示將提供額外1.8億美元來(lái)幫助南蘇丹面臨嚴(yán)重饑荒的群眾。白宮已經(jīng)督促國(guó)家總統(tǒng)和前副總統(tǒng)承擔(dān)起責(zé)任,避免造成更多的痛苦。Chris Stillwalker報(bào)道。
This rises to more than 600 million dollars, added to the amount of the United States has so far provided in humanitarian assistance to South Sudan. The White House says the South Sudanese are suffering because of the inability of the country's leaders to put their people's interests above their own. A power struggle between its president Salva Kiir and his former deputy Riek Machar has plunged the country into renewed warfare, leaving thousands dead and nearly two million refugees.
目前為止美國(guó)對(duì)南蘇丹提供的人道主義援助資金已經(jīng)上升到6億多美元,白宮方面表示該國(guó)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人南蘇丹人民正經(jīng)歷著難以忍受的苦難,因?yàn)樗麄兊膰?guó)家領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人沒(méi)有能力做到把人民利益放到首位??偨y(tǒng)薩爾瓦基爾與他前任副總統(tǒng)瑞克馬查爾之間的權(quán)利爭(zhēng)斗致使整個(gè)國(guó)家陷入一片混亂,導(dǎo)致數(shù)千人死亡,近兩百萬(wàn)人淪為難民。
South Africa says it plans to evacuate up to 500 rhinos from the famed Kruger National Park to save them from poachers. The park authorities say some of the animals could be moved to safer areas where rhino numbers can increase. Moving one rhino can cost more than 1,000 dollars. Officials say poaching at Kruger has risen sharply, particularly on the border with Mozambique. There are thought to be just over 10,000 rhinos left in the park.
