It`s great to have you watching our commercial-free show this Tuesday.

非常高興大家能在周二時候收看不含商業(yè)廣告的新聞節(jié)目。

In the U.S., the 2016 presidential campaign season is on. It kicked off yesterday with an announcement from Senator Ted Cruz, a Republican candidate from Texas who said he was running for president.

2016年總統(tǒng)選舉又快到了。昨天德克薩斯州共和黨參議院特德克魯茲參議院宣布參與明年總統(tǒng)競選。

The election won`t be until next November 8. But announcing they`re running helps candidates ramp up their fundraising, shape their messages and campaign strategies and reach out to voters.

選舉明年11月8號進行。但是提前宣布準備參與競選會幫助他們加緊籌款，發(fā)布信息和計劃競選策略吸收支持者。

In the 2016 election, there`s no incumbent president. President Obama has reached to two term limit set by the Twenty-Second Amendment to "The Constitution." It was ratified in 1951.

在2016年大選中現(xiàn)任總統(tǒng)不會參加。根據(jù)1951年批準的修改憲法奧巴馬總統(tǒng)已經(jīng)達到了任職期限。

So what this means is that the field for 2016 is wide open for both Republicans and Democrats who want to move to the White House.

也就是說2016年的選舉對于想搬進白宮的共和黨議員和民主黨議員都有很大機會。

The Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. "Constitution" abolished slavery in the U.S. in 1865. The United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights abolished slavery worldwide in 1948.

第十三次憲法修正法在1865年廢除了奴隸制。聯(lián)合國人權(quán)宣言在1948年宣布廢除奴隸制。

And yet, there are more slaves on earth today than at any point in human history.

但是現(xiàn)在世界上存在著比人類歷史上任何一個時期都要多的奴隸。

A few years ago, CNN launched The Freedom Project. Its goals include showing the horrors of modern-day slavery, exposing the criminals who trade in human lives, amplifying the voices of the slaves themselves and highlighting the success stories of those working to abolish slavery.

幾年前CNN推出了自由項目。目的包括揭示現(xiàn)代奴隸制的恐怖，揭露生活中的犯罪貿(mào)易，放大奴隸的心聲，高度突出那些廢除奴隸制成功的故事。
