今天我們要講的新聞圍繞整個世界，從歐洲到中東到亞洲。

We`re starting in Italy, where two American tourists were recently arrested. They were in the Italian capital of Rome visiting the Coliseum.

首先我們來說意大利。最近兩名美國旅客被捕。兩人在參觀意大利首都羅馬競技場時被捕。

The world-renowned landmark dates back to the year 70, when construction started.

這座著名的世界級地標性建筑時間可以追溯到公元70年。

Today, there`s a law against defacing the roman amphitheater. The two American women, both from California and in their 20s, are accused of scratching their initials into one of the Coliseum`s walls and then taking a selfie of it. They could be fined for aggravated damage on a building of historic interest.

今天有法律反對對羅馬競技場亂涂亂畫。而來自加利福尼亞的二十多歲的兩名美國游客因在競技場墻壁上刻字并發(fā)自拍照被捕。他們將會因損害歷史建筑被罰款。

Last year, there were five tourists caught carving graffiti on the Coliseum. One of them, who shaped the letter K in the brick work, was fined more than $21,000.

去年共有五名旅客因在競技場內涂鴉被捕。其中一個在磚塊上面刻畫字幕K的旅客被罰款21000多美元。
