CNN News: 敘利亞政府成功收復(fù)帕爾米拉古城

First up, a battle for the city of Palmyra. We reported on it before. It`s an ancient landmark in central Syria.

頭條新聞是關(guān)于帕爾米拉。我們之前有過相關(guān)報(bào)道。這是敘利亞中部的古老標(biāo)志。

The ISIS terrorist group took over Palmyra last year and it destroyed a pair of 2,000-year-old temples there because ISIS believed they conflicted with the group`s severe interpretation of Islam. ISIS has used the city for mass executions but now, Syrian government troops are battling to take Palmyra back. They`ve been helped by Russian airstrikes. But the troop`s progress into the city is slow, because ISIS fighters reportedly leave mines in places where they retreat.

伊斯蘭國恐怖組織去年占領(lǐng)了帕爾米拉，并摧毀了一對擁有2000年歷史的寺廟。因此，ISIS認(rèn)為嚴(yán)重妨礙了伊斯蘭教。伊斯蘭國用帕爾米拉進(jìn)行大規(guī)模的運(yùn)動(dòng)，但是現(xiàn)在敘利亞政府已經(jīng)將重新控制該城市。敘利亞政府在俄羅斯幫助下獲得成功。但是部隊(duì)的進(jìn)展很緩慢，因?yàn)橐了固m國武裝分子撤退到了礦區(qū)。

Palmyra is a strategically important place, capturing it could hinder the movement of ISIS. U.S.-led airstrikes continue to target the terrorists in other parts of Syria.

帕爾米拉是一個(gè)重要的戰(zhàn)略地點(diǎn)，占領(lǐng)此地可以阻礙伊斯蘭國的運(yùn)動(dòng)。美國領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的空襲繼續(xù)針對敘利亞的其他恐怖分子地點(diǎn)發(fā)動(dòng)空襲。

Officials from the World Health Organization say no one knows how far the Zika virus will spread worldwide. A new study suggests it might have gotten to Brazil in 2013. There are now thousands of suspected cases there, hundreds in the U.S. And the virus has spread as far away as Australia, as some Australians who travelled to the Caribbean and other Zika affected areas have returned home with the virus.

世界衛(wèi)生組織官員稱，目前尚不知曉Zika病毒在世界范圍內(nèi)將會(huì)如何蔓延。新的研究表明這種病毒在2013年已經(jīng)傳播到了巴西?，F(xiàn)在巴西有成千上萬類似病例出現(xiàn)，而美國已出現(xiàn)上百例。同時(shí)，由于一些澳大利亞人前往加勒比海地區(qū)以及其他Zika病毒感染區(qū)，而攜帶Zika病毒回國，因此Zika病毒已經(jīng)蔓延到了遙遠(yuǎn)的澳大利亞。

It`s particularly dangerous for pregnant women, though Zika threatens others as well. The mosquito that spreads it is found in areas where more than half the global population lives.

盡管Zika病毒會(huì)對其他人權(quán)造成威脅，但是對孕婦來說尤其危險(xiǎn)。可傳染Zika病毒的蚊子已經(jīng)超過全球人口一半的居住地出現(xiàn)。
