The United Nations humanitarian chief Valerie Amos has been to the devastated district of Baba Amr in the Syrian city of Homs. She spent about 45 minutes there with members of the Syrian Red Crescent assessing the humanitarian needs of residents who survived weeks of shelling by government forces. A Red Cross spokesman, Sean Maguire, told the BBC that they've encountered fewer people than they'd expected.
联合国人道主义专员Valerie Amos已赴叙利亚胡姆斯市被毁地区巴巴阿鲁姆，她于叙利亚红新月成员花了45分钟时间，评估了在政府军炮轰下幸存数周居民所需的人道主义救助。红十字发言人Sean Maguire告诉BBC，他们遇到的人比预料的少。
"The key issue really for us is where is the population and what are their needs no w. We get a sense that they fled, they're elsewhere. Last week, the Free Syrian Army were saying there were about 4,000 people left, out of a population that may at one point have been as high as 100,000."
“对我们来说，关键问题是人在哪里，他们现在需要什么。我们觉得他们已经逃离到别处了。上周，自由叙利亚军称还有四千人，而这里一度有10万人。”
Six British soldiers have been killed by a huge bomb explosion in southern Afghanistan. Their deaths take the number of British service personnel killed in the country to more than 400. Quentin Sommerville reports from the British base at Lashkar Gah in Helmand province.
阿富汗南部发生大型炸弹爆炸事故，6名英国士兵遇难。至此，在阿富汗被杀的英国士兵超过400人。Quentin Sommervill在埃尔芒省Lashkar Gah的英军基地报道。
The men had been known as two-vehicle convoy in what was described as a routine patrol. Not long after leaving their base, they left the main highway, crossing open ground. It's a common tactic. It was twilight when a massive explosion tore thro ugh their Warrior troop carrier.
两名士兵当时在进行被称为“两车护送”的例行巡逻，他们离开基地就出了主干路，穿过露天地，这是个常见的手段。
The fire burnt fo r hours. The wreckage of the vehicle and the remains of the six soldiers have now been returned to base. The burnt-out hull of the Warrior appears to indicate that it was hit by a huge Taliban improvised explosive device, one of the large st seen in the area. One senior officer said this isn't a change in insurgent tactics; it was just rotten luck.
黄昏时分，他们驾驶的“勇士号”装甲车发生猛烈爆炸，大火燃烧了数小时。车辆残骸和六
名士兵的遗体已被运回基地，从“勇士号”燃烧殆尽后的外壳来看，这显然是塔利班临时安置的巨型爆炸设备造成的。一位高级官员称，这不是暴动策略的改变，只是倒霉透了。
The government of Sudan has rejected allegations of crimes against humanity made by the former head of the United Nations in Sudan.
联合国驻苏丹前负责人指控苏丹政府犯下反人类罪，苏丹政府对此否认。
Mukesh Kapila accused Sudan of ethnic cleansing against the Nuba po pulation in Southern Kordofan, where there's been fighting between the Sudanese military and rebels. However, a Sudanese official, Rabie Abdul-Atti, told the BBC that its air force sorties were targeting the rebels whom he accused of committing human rights abuses.
Mukesh Kapila指控苏丹军与叛军作战期间，苏丹对南科尔多凡州的鲁巴人实施种族清洗。然而，苏丹官员Rabie Abdul-Atti告诉BBC，其空军突围的目标是叛军，而不是所谓的侵犯人权。
Forbes magazine says there are now a record 1,226 billionaires on its annual rich list, compared with 140 when it w as launched 25 years ago.
福布斯杂志称，其年度富豪榜上已记录1226位亿万富翁，而25年前刚成立时只有140位。
The Mexican telecoms magnate Carlos Slim, who's worth an estimated $69bn, tops the list for the third year in a row followed by the software magnate Bill Gates and financier Warren Buffett. No Indian billionaires are in the top 10 this year, and the only Chinese one is the Hong Kong property magnate Li Ka-shing. Steve Forbes explains why.
墨西哥电信巨头Carlos Slim身价约有690亿美元，连续三年来一直名居榜首，其次是软件巨头比尔·盖茨和金融家沃伦·巴菲特。今年的前十名中没有印度亿万富翁，唯一的中国入榜者是香港的地产巨头李嘉诚。Steve Forbes解释了原因。
"Well, what it tells us is there's a lot of churn, there hasn't been a lot of growth in the economy in the last year. The number of billionaires went up 16, but yet some regions go down: China went down a little bit; Russia went down because of weak commodity prices. But the fact the matter is there hasn't been a lot of real vigorous growth in the world, and that's reflected on the list this year."
“从这个榜单上可以看到很多变动，去年的经济增长并不快。亿万富翁的数量增加了16名，但有的地区数量减少了，中国少了一些，俄罗斯因为疲软的商品价格也少了些。但事实上，整个世界的经济也不是很有势头，这就反映到今年的榜单上来了。”
The man who admits carrying out a massacre in Norway last year has been formally charged
with acts of terrorism and premeditated murder. Anders Behring Breivik, a right-wing extremist, is due to go on trial next month. Last July, he killed 69 people in a shooting rampage and eight others in a bomb attack. Norway's state prosecutor Svein Holden says it's unlikely that Breivik would ever be released.
承认去年在挪威实施大屠杀的男子已以恐怖行为和预谋谋杀罪被正式指控。Anders Behring Breivik是一名右翼极端分子，他将于下月受审。去年7月，他用机枪扫射杀死69人，并用炸弹袭击杀死了另外8人。挪威国家公诉人Svein Holden说不大可能会释放Breivik。
"The defendant has committed very serious crimes of a dimension with no previous experience of in our soc iety in modern times. In his opinion, his actions were justified. And it is likely that he would commit crimes of a similar nature again."
“被告犯下的罪行很严重，我国近代史上尚无如此严重的先例。他本人认为自己的行为正当，所以他可能还会犯类似的罪行。”
An international group of scientists has established the complete genetic blueprint of the gorilla, one of mankind's closest relatives. The researchers found that 15% of the human genome is closer to that of gorillas than it is to chimpanzees - our closest relative of all. Our science correspondent Pallab Ghosh has more.
一支国际科学家团队完成大猩猩全部基因图谱，大猩猩是与人类血缘最近的动物之一。研究者发现，有15%的人类基因组序列更接近大猩猩基因组序列而非跟人类血缘最近的黑猩猩。BBC 科学记者Pallab Ghosh报道。
Initial studies of the gorilla genome have shown that our species separated from gorillas 10 million years ago, much earlier than some scientists thought. Another discovery is that something in their genes prevents gorillas from suffering from dementia - a finding that researchers could study further to help them find a cure for senility. But the ultimate prize for the research community is to discover just what it is that makes us uniquely human.
对大猩猩基因的初步研究表明，人类从黑猩猩中分支出去是在大约1000万年前，比一些科学家认为的要早。另一个发现是，一些基因可以使大猩猩免得痴呆症，这个发现可以进一步帮助科学家找到有关衰老的线索。但研究界的最终收获，是发现了人之所以为独一无二的人的原因。
Armenia says it will not take part in this year's Eurovision Song Contest, which is being hosted by Azerbaijan. The head of Armenia's Eurovision delegation, Gohar Gasparyan, said it didn't make sense to send people to a country where they'd be met as enemies. In the 1990s, Armenia and Azerbaijan fought a war over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
亚美尼亚称不参加今年由阿塞拜疆主办的欧洲歌唱大赛，亚美尼亚欧洲电视代表团团长Gohar
Gasparyan称，将人民送到一个视自己为敌人的国家毫无意义。20世纪90年代，亚美尼亚和阿塞拜疆就争议地区纳戈尔诺-卡拉巴赫进行过战争。

2020年7月bbc英语听力材料 A judge in the United States has ordered the release of Albert Woodfox, the last of the so-called “Angola Three” still in prison. Woodfox has been in solitary confinement for 43 years after the killing of a guard at the Louisiana State Penitentiary in 1972. Richard Hulls reports. “Campaigners for the ‘Angola Three’ have always maintained there was no physical evidence to link them to the crime and all convictions have been overturned on numerous occasions. In his ruling, the judge said Albert Woodfox's poor health and the length of the time spent in solitary confinement had contributed to the decision to free him. No man in the US has ever spent as much time in solitary confinement as he has. With the exception of a six-month period in a secure dormitory in 2008, Albert Woodfox has spent all of the past 43 years incarcerated on his own.” World news from the BBC. 【key point】 confinement n. 限制；监禁；分娩 exception n. 例外；异议 solitary n. 独居者；隐士 adj. 孤独的；独居的

What happened just a few moments ago is that the operation of evacuation started, and the Syrian Arab Red Crescent team entered with three ambulances inside Baba Amr and just evacuated seven women a nd children to, I mean, hospitals in Homs." “国际红十字团队和叙利亚阿拉伯红新月会的志愿者们从下午开始就在胡姆斯市忙碌着，他们与叙利亚当局和反对派协商进入Baba Amr并撤出伤病员。就在刚才，撤离行动开始了，叙利亚阿拉伯红新月会开了三辆救护车进入Baba Amr，将7名妇女和儿童撤离送至胡姆斯的医院。” The city of Homs has been under heavy bombardment for several days. As well as countless Syrians, two seriously injured foreign journalists are among those needing urgent help. 几天来，胡姆斯市一直遭受强烈轰击。除了无数叙利亚人，还有两名受伤严重的外国记者也急需援助。 The American Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says the day-long international conference on Syria held in Tunis has agreed a series of measures that should help provide more humanitarian aid to the people of the country. Mrs Clinton said the 60 countries involved would increase the pressure on the Syrian government and prepare for a dem ocratic transition. 美国国务卿希拉里称，在突尼斯举行了一整天的叙利亚问题国际会议已达成一系列措施，将为该国人民提供更多人道主义救援。希拉里说，与会的60个国家将对叙利亚政府施加更多压力，准备进行民主过渡。 "Today the friends of the Syrian people sent a strong and unified message that the Assad regime's escalating violence is an affront to the international community, a threat to regional security and a grave violation of universal human rights."

BBC News with Iain Purdon. Iain Purdon为你播报BBC新闻 The US Secretary of State Chuck Hagel has said the US is rethinking its opposition to arming Syria's rebels. It's the first time a senior American official has openly acknowledged that the administration is considering providing weapons to the rebels, although no decisions have been made. Our state department correspondent Kim Ghattas reports. 美国国防部长哈格尔表示美国正重新考虑对武装叙利亚反对派的反对态度。这是美国高官首次公开承认美国政府正在考虑给反对派提供武器，尽管目前尚未做出决定。 The American Secretary of Defence Chuck Hagel said the US administration was considering a range of options including arming the Syrian rebels, but he made clear no decisions had been made. Last year President Barack Obama rejected a proposal by his then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to arm the rebels. But as the fighting drags-on in Syria, the debate about what the US should do has intensified in Washington, and with no appetite here for direct military intervention, many US officials increasingly feel that arming the rebels is now the least worst option. American allies like Qatar and Saudi Arabia are already providing weapons to various groups fighting President Bashar al-Assad's forces. 美国国防部长哈格尔表示美国政府正在考虑一系列的选择包括给叙利亚反对派提供武装力量。但是他表明目前还未做出决定。去年奥巴马总统否决了当时国务卿希拉里给反对分子提供武装的建议。但是随着叙利亚局势的一再拖延，关于美国做法的讨论在叙利亚日益激烈。美国不愿意对叙利亚进行直接的军事介入，许多美国官员日益感到武装反对派是最不糟糕的选择。美国的盟友诸如卡塔尔和沙特都已给各种反抗政府军的组织提供武器。 President Obama has arrived in Mexico for talks that are expected to switch the focus of bilateral ties to job creation and trade rather than security issues and the war on drugs. Will Grant reports from Mexico City 奥巴马总统达到墨西哥进行访问，此次访问有望将两国关系的重心转到创造就业和贸易合作上来，而非安全问题和打击毒品。 As Mr. Obama touched down in Mexico City on his first visit since Enrique Pena Nieto took office. He was welcomed off Air Force One by the country's Foreign Minister Jose Antonio Meade and the US ambassador Antony Wayne as well as other members of the Mexican government military. President Pena Nieto was waiting for his guest at the National Palace for bilateral talks. In some way, Mr. Obama arrives with two separate agendas, one public, in which both sides have been keen to strengthen emphasis on the economy and trade; the other is private which is thought to include difficult questions about security and cross-border crime. 这是Enrique Pena Nieto 上台以来奥巴马总统首次出访墨西哥。走下空军一号专机后，奥巴马总统受到了墨西哥外长Jose Antonio Meade，美国驻墨西哥大使Antony Wayne 以及其他

It is easier for people to understand, no matter where in the world they live. Voice 1 A young child sits by the roadside. Her small hands rest in the dry dirt. She lifts the grains and watches them fall through her fingers. In her mind she can hear her mother’s voice calling her. In her mind she can see her father working in the fields. But she knows that these images are only in her mind now. The young girl’s mother and father are both dead. She is an orphan. For a minute, her brown eyes fill with tears. But her grandmother’s voice stops her thoughts. ‘Coming Grandma’, she says in her native language of Swahili. Voice 2 Each year the number of orphans caused by HIV/AIDS rises. Worldwide, over twenty million people have died from diseases connected to AIDS. HIV is the virus that causes the AIDS disease. AIDS destroys the body’s natural defence system. This means it cannot fight infections or diseases. There is no cure for AIDS. Voice 1 Adults suffer the most deaths from this disease. Many are mothers and fathers of young children. They are the workers of the land. They are the providers of food. They are the carers in the home. They are the carers and supporters of their parents. They are the ‘working generation.’When they die, they leave the weaker members of the family behind - the children and the grandmothers. Voice 2 Priscilla is seven years old. She is an AIDS orphan. She lives with her grandmother and two brothers in Maua, Kenya. In the beginning things were very difficult for her family. They had little food. Their grandmother did not work. There was not any money for the children to go to school. But then, things changed. Priscilla and her brothers became part of a programme at the Maua Methodist Hospital. Their AIDS Orphan programme began in 2001. The programme aims to help children get back into school. They provide clothing

Before Allred knew it, New Mexico State Police Officers were among the many, stopping by helping them reach a total of $568. The family turned to social media expressing their gratitude saying, “From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to deeply thank each and every person that stopped by!” Q1: Who did Addison raise money for Her little brother?
BBC news with Iain Purdon. Iain Purdon为你播报BBC新闻。 The US Anti-Doping Agency has accused the cyclist Lance Armstrong of cheating his way to the top through the most sophisticated and professional doping programme ever seen in sport. Its new report includes testimony from eleven named team-mates of Armstrong, who won the Tou r de France cycle race seven times. His lawyer has described the report as a one-sided hatchet job. More from our sports news reporter Alex Capstick. 美国反兴奋剂机构指责自行车选手兰斯·阿姆斯特朗在比赛中作弊，这是体育界目前出现的最高端最专业的兴奋剂丑闻。阿姆斯特朗曾七次赢得环法自行车赛，最近报告包括根据他的11名公开姓名队友的证词。他的律师说这是单方面的诽谤，体育记者亚历克斯·卡普斯蒂克报道。 In a statement it said there was conclusive and undeniable proof of a doping conspiracy at the team with whom he had most of his success. Twenty-six people, including 15 riders with the knowledge of the drug taking regime at the US Postal Service team, have testified against him; among them, some of his closest confidants. It said the material which also contains documentary evidence illustrated how the team was design to groom and pressure athletes to use dangerous performance-enhancing substances. Lance Armstrong refused to contest the charges against him, but has consistently denied any wrongdoing. 声明称这是一份阿姆斯特朗团队全面又无可否认的兴奋剂阴谋证据，他的大部分成功都是在这个队里取得的。包括了解兴奋剂内幕的美国邮政自行车队15名骑手在内的26人都指证他，其中一些人还是他的密友。报告称材料中还有书面证明，表明该队培训并迫使运动员使用危险的可提高成绩的药物。兰斯·阿姆斯特朗拒绝对指控进行上诉，但却一直否认犯罪。 Turkish fighter jets have forced a Syrian passenger plane to land.
