Police in Uganda say they've increased security at all public places in the capital Kampala following an operation against suspected militants2. Earlier the US embassy in Kampala said the authorities have found evidence of an imminent3 attack by the Somali militant1 group al-Shabab. Assistant Commissioner4 Fred Enanga said the police operation was continuing.
乌干达警方表示，搜捕激进分子嫌疑人的一场行动过后，他们加强了首都坎帕拉所有公共场合的安保工作。早些时候，美国驻坎帕拉大使馆表示，当局有证据表明索马里激进组织青年党即将发动袭击。助理行政长官Fred Enanga表示，警方的行动仍在继续。
There are some leads of course let us to be followed and we cannot yet say that we have concluded, because you know when you have a thwart5 that was quite imminent like this thing, because it was at the verge6 of happening. So we moved in at a very opportunity moment, broke into this terrorist cell, and arrest some suspects with explosive materials.
当然，我们必须遵循一些指导方针，我们还不能说行动已经结束，因为你知道，当你面临像这次一样的威胁时，袭击随时处于爆发的边缘。所以，我们迅速采取行动，捣毁恐怖分子巢穴，逮捕了一些藏有爆炸材料的嫌疑人。
There's been renewed fighting around Donetsk in eastern Ukraine in spite of a recent ceasefire agreement between the government and pro-Russian separatists. Our correspondents Paul Adams is in the city.
尽管最近政府和亲俄分裂分子之间达成了停火协议，乌克兰东部顿涅茨克仍然不断发生战争。我们的通讯员Paul Adams就在这座城市。
All day the approaches to Donetsk have reverberated7 to the sound of gunfire much more than usual. A Major reports the rebels were attempting to capture the airport, where a few hundred Ukrainian soldiers have been held up since June, were drift within a mile or two to a rebel checkpoint. Tank rounds were falling a few hundred metres beyond, just short of the airport itself. The government in Kiev claims to have repulsed8 an attack, but one rebel soldier told us there'd been no order to take the strategic site. For all the gunfire, it didn't seem a concerted push was on the way, but it's clear that in several parts of Donetsk, the week-long ceasefire is a fiction.
一整天，通往顿涅茨克的所有道路上都回响着比平时更多的枪声。一名少校报告称叛军试图占领机场，自六月份以来，几百名乌克兰战士一直驻守在这里，距离一个叛军检查点只有一两英里的。坦克轨道在几百米外，没有到达机场。基辅政府宣称击退了一次袭击，但是一名叛军士兵告诉我们，他们没有收到夺取该战略性位置的命令。尽管炮火不断，全面的推进似乎不会马上到来。但是在顿涅茨克几个地方，为期一周的停火只是一个假象。
Pope Francis has said the current conflicts around the globe may already amount to a World War III, fought piecemeal9 with crimes, massacres10 and destruction. Speaking at an Italian war cemetery11 as he commemorated12 the beginning of the World War I a hundred years ago, the Pope said war was irrational13 and the motivations for it was greed, intolerance and the lust14 for power.
教皇弗朗西斯表示，目前全球各处的冲突已经相当于第三次世界大战，犯罪，屠杀和摧毁遍布各地。在意大利一个战争墓地发表讲话，纪念第一次世界大战开始100周年之时，教皇表示，战争是不合理的，战争的动机是贪婪，偏执和权力的诱惑。
Both camps in the independence debate in Scotland have been out in force on the final weekend of campaigning before Thursday's referendum. Opinion polls suggest the outcome could be very close, but Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond insisted the YES campaign could still win people over.
周四公投之前的最后一个周末，苏格兰独立辩论的两大阵营逐渐开始得势。民意测验显示，结果将会势均力敌。但是苏格兰第一部长萨尔蒙德(Alex Salmond)坚持称，赞成独立阵营将继续赢得支持者。
Our big stand for the campaign is that we don't consider anybody beyond the reach, we think there are lots of people who are just waiting for the right reason to vote YES, who want to vote YES, and just need that last particular option sit for YES.
我们这场运动最大的立场是，我们可以考虑接收任何人，我们认为许多人都在等待投赞成票的正当理由，想要投赞成票的人只是等待最后的时机。
The former British Prime Minister Tony Blair said he hopes Scotland would vote to remain part of the UK. For all the reasons that have been given by all the main party leaders in the UK, in the 21st century, to rip up the alliance between our countries would not be sensible, politically, economically or even emotionally.
英国前首相布莱尔表示，他希望苏格兰投票赞成仍然作为大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国的一部分。根据英国所有主要党派领导人给出的所有理由，在21世纪，打破各国之间的联盟无论是情理，政治，经济还是感情方面都是不可取的。

In today's globalized world, it's only a matter of time before the threat of terrorism anywhere becomes a threat of terrorism everywhere. That is certainly been proven true in the case of ISIL. It is an organization whose brutality15 and sheer evil knows no bounds.
在今天全球化的世界里，任何地方的恐怖主义都会成为所有地方的恐怖主义，只是时间问题而已。关于ISIL的问题已经证实如此。该组织的残暴和恶行没有国界。

Hundreds of thousands of people remain trapped by flood waters in northern India and Pakistan, with an estimated 200,000 still stranded16 in Indian administered Kashmir alone.

我们所在地区有大量洪水，我们非常失望，因为政府没有给我们任何帮助。我们居住在临时帐篷中，面临着问题。我们祈祷上帝帮助我们，把我们拯救出灾难。
