Britain Enters Final Day of Campaigning Before Elections
Britain's top party leaders are taking full advantage of their last day of campaigning before Britons go to the polls.
Late Wednesday night, Labor leader Gordon Brown visited steel workers on an overnight shift.
"I don't need to tell you that this election is about the future," said Brown. "It's about the future of our instry, the future of our jobs, the future of our young people."
Mr. Brown is facing a tight election. The Conservative Party, led by David Cameron, has topped the latest opinion polls. And, the Liberal Democrats -- traditionally a marginalized party in what has largely been a two-party system -- are scoring high in opinion polls.
Rodney Barker is a political academic and professor at the London School of Economics.
"The three candidates have been up to making themselves as busy as possible," explained Barker. "David Cameron, the Conservative leader, so visible that he's even worked through the night -- he hasn't slept."
Barker says this last day of campaigning is crucial, because so many Britons still have not made up their mind.
A survey published by the research group ComRes Tuesday said 2.5 million people who say they are certain to vote say they are still undecided who to vote for and more than a third of voters said it was "quite possible" they would change their mind on who to vote for by the time the polls open Thursday morning.
Rodney Barker says it is all up in the air.
"The one thing which one can say about this election -- and we haven't been able to say this for any election within living memory -- is that the only certain thing is that we cannot predict the outcome, even on the day before the poll," added Barker.
The ComRes poll shows the Conservatives winning 37 percent of votes, Labor on 29 percent and the Liberal Democrats on 26 percent.
With the votes split this way, no single party would win a majority of seats in parliament. In that case, the shape of Britain's future government will depend on coalitions.
The balance is likely to be tipped by the Liberal Democrats, but so far their leader, Nick Clegg, has refused to say whether his party would side with the Conservatives or Labor.
Barker says what this means is that it could be weeks before the composition of Britain's future government becomes clear.
"Even when we know the result of the election, we may not know what the result is in terms of government -- who will successfully make a deal with who to make what sort of government," noted Barker.
If no single party is able to win a majority of parliament seats, current Prime Minister Gordon Brown would have the right to stay in office until a new government can be formed.
呵呵，這是2010年5月6日的英語新聞，來自VOA，希望對你有幫助，呵呵。。。

Shanghai tweaks child rules
生還是不生？上海放寬二胎限制
為應對日趨嚴重的人口老齡化趨勢，上海市鼓勵符合再生育條件的夫妻生育二胎。 Eligible couples in the city are for the first time being encouraged to have a second child, as authorities make an effort to tackle the burden of an aging population.
按照政策，雙方都為獨生子女的夫妻能生育第二個子女。上海市人口計生委員會和志願者們會上門拜訪、發送傳單鼓勵他們生育二胎。此外，他們還將為後者提供情感和經濟上的咨詢指導。 Family planning officials and volunteers will make home visits and slip leaflets under doorways to encourage couples to have a second child if both grew up as only children. Emotional and financial counseling will also be provided, officials said.
市人口計劃生育委員會主任謝玲麗表示：「我們鼓勵符合再生育條件的夫妻生二胎，以降低上海市老年人口比例，緩解將來勞動力緊缺情況。」 "We advocate eligible couples to have two kids because it can help rece the proportion of the aging people and alleviate a workforce shortage in the future," said Xie Lingli, director of the Shanghai Population and Family Planning Commission.
上海是國內人口最多的城市，市民中年齡在60歲以上者約有300多萬人，約占上海總人口數的22％。預計到2020年，該比例將達到34％。 Shanghai, the country's most populous city, has more than 3 million registered residents aged 60 and above, nearly 22 percent of the population. By 2020, the proportion is expected to rise to about 34 percent.
近年來，國內的計劃生育政策有所放寬，允許雙方都是獨生子女的夫妻生育二胎。 The country's family planning policy has been relaxed in recent years, allowing couples who are the only children in their families to have a second child.
謝玲麗強調：「老年人口數量的不斷升高將給青壯年和整個社會帶來壓力。我們要解決這個問題，但這並不表示我們要推翻計劃生育政策。」 "The rising number of aging people will put pressure on the younger generation and society. We need to find ways to solve the problem, but it doesn't mean the country's family planning policy will be reversed," Xie stressed.
消息傳出後，上海市的一名銷售人員拍手稱快。 One salesman was cheered by the new attitude in Shanghai.
今年25歲的小王在當地一家公司上班，他和女朋友都是家裡唯一的孩子。他說：「我還不確定將來是否會要兩個孩子，但這項政策讓我們有更多的選擇機會。如果經濟狀況允許，我們將來想要兩個孩子。」 "I'm not sure, but such policy really gives us one more option. If family finance permits, I want to have two kids with my wife in the future," said 25-year-old Xiao Wang, who works at a local company. He and his girlfriend are both single children in their families.
但是，也不是所有市民都歡迎這樣的政策。 However, not all residents are so keen on the idea.
26歲的小陳是一名上班族。他說：「我就不想要以後生兩個孩子。畢竟，養孩子的壓力太大了。」 "I don't think we will have a second kid," said 26-year-old Xiao Chen, an office worker. "After all, it is stressful work raising a child."

6. 急求20條英語新聞
On Sunday, several hundred engineers and scientists will gather at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., and await the end of the Galileo spacecraft in a suicide plunge into Jupiter''s dense atmosphere.
周日，數百名工程師和科學家,將聚集在加利福尼亞州的帕沙德納的噴氣推進實驗室，靜候伽利略號太空梭自殺性插入木星周圍稠密大氣層的結局。
They are the kind of professionals who try to resist anthropomorphizing their machines, even one like Galileo, which has been a longtime companion in their lives and careers. But they freely concede that they will be there at the end as an act of homage.
這些專家盡力阻止使機器人性化，即便是相處很久的伽利略號。但他們不得不勉強的承認他們會滿懷敬意的守到最後時刻。
"It will be the equivalent of a wake," said Dr. Claudia Alexander, manager of the project.
「它將是一個有意義的軌跡」，這個項目負責人Claudia Alexander博士評論道。
Few flight teams have had to contend with a spacecraft more demanding of their attention and ingenuity.
很少飛行隊要求航空飛船有更多的注意力和靈活性。
Launched in 1989 after a long delay caused by the loss of the space shuttle Challenger in 1986, Galileo took six years going to Jupiter, almost half a billion miles away, by a circuitous route dictated by the limited power of its initial rocket boost.
由於1986挑戰者號航空飛船的墜毀，推遲了很久的伽利略號終於於1989年發射。它花了6年的時間到達木星，幾乎走了5億英里距離。
From then on, the three-ton spacecraft was tormented by as many afflictions as poor Job.
從那時起，3噸重的航空飛船被認為是一項要多痛苦有多痛苦的乏味工作
The main antenna, the one that scientists counted on for the return of pictures and data of Jupiter and its four largest moons, failed to unfurl. Engineers had to rely on a smaller antenna and an improvised system of data shorthand.
科學家們所指望的用於返回木星和他的四個最大的衛星的圖片和數據的主要天線沒能正常打開，因此他們不得不依靠一個小型天線和一個臨時准備的數據速記系統。
Galileo was further hobbled by an erratic tape recorder. After the craft began orbiting Jupiter in 1995, repeated zappings from the planet''s intense radiation belts damaged other instruments.
伽利略號又被一個漂浮在太空的磁帶錄音機所拖累。在飛船1995年後圍繞木星軌道運動時，從行星的強輻射帶發射的循壞的跳過節目的輻射損壞了其他一些儀器。
In nearly all cases, engineers managed to reprogram software to overcome or work around the setbacks. As recently as last November, in its last encounter with a Jovian moon, tiny Amalthea, the spacecraft "got hammered again by radiation," Dr. Alexander said.
在所有的情況中，工程師們試圖重新編寫軟體以克服遇到的挫折。去年十一月份，在它的最後一次與木星的衛星木衛五相遇時， 「飛船又被輻射給破壞了,」 Alexander博士說。
The spacecraft''s fault-detection system came to the rescue once again, turning off nearly all operations and saving the science data from the encounter.
飛船的錯誤監察系統再次起了作用：它幾乎關閉了所有操作並將相遇的全部科學數據記錄了下來。
But the tape recorder was left stuck. Flight controllers applied electrical current to the recorder, on and off and on again, repeatedly, until the molecular structure was altered enough to unstick the recorder for transmitting data.
但是磁帶記錄機卻粘著了。飛行控制器應用了電流將記錄機反復地打開關上，直至分子結構改變才使磁帶與記錄機分開。
"Miracles continued to happen on this mission," Dr. Alexander said.
「奇跡再度發生，」Claudia Alexander博士說。
Indeed, in spite of everything, scientists rate Galileo as one of the most successful missions of planetary exploration. Galileo''s eight-year orbit of Jupiter included several close encounters of each of Jupiter''s major satellites, Ganymede, Callisto, Io and Europa. No two were found to be anything alike.
確實，盡管發生了種種事故，科學家認為伽利略號是行星探索任務中最成功的一次。在伽利略號圍繞著木星的八年的軌道上，它與木星的幾顆主要的衛星有過好幾次近距離接觸，比如Ganymede, Callisto, Io and Europa。它們中沒有任何兩個是相同的。
Ganymede is not only the largest moon in the solar system, but it is also larger than Mercury and Pluto. Galileo discovered that Ganymede had a strong magnetic field, "something no one thought a moon would have," said Dr. Rosaly Lopes-Gautier, a member of the project''s science team.
Ganymede在太陽系中不是最大的衛星，但他要比Mercury 和冥王星大多了。伽利略號發現Ganymede還有強磁場。「這是從來沒有任何人都想到衛星會有磁場，」小組的一個項目負責人Rosaly Lopes-Gautier博士說。
Icy Callisto appears to be the most heavily cratered object in the solar system. Io is bubbling with erupting volcanoes, 152 by Dr. Lopes-Gautier''s latest count. The phenomenon was discovered on previous flybys by Voyager spacecraft, but Galileo determined how plentiful and persistent the eruptions are. The lava flows are hotter than anything seen on Earth in two billion years.
冰凍的木衛四看上去像是太陽系中表面坑洞最多的一個星體。Io的火山正在爆發。據Rosaly Lopes-Gautier 博士最近的統計，至少有152個。這個現象早先就被經過的航行者號發現過，但伽利略號卻更詳細地展示了這些爆發是多麼的壯觀和持久。四處流淌的熔漿比地球在近二十億年間的任何東西都要熱。
Europa has given scientists the most reason to celebrate and speculate. In Galileo''s eight flybys, the appearance of Europa''s frozen crust suggested that it covered an immense ocean. And where there is so much liquid water, could there also be some forms of life?
木衛二是科學家們最值得慶祝和思索的。在伽利略號八次靠近中，它的冰凍的外殼暗示了它下面覆蓋的廣大的海洋。這么多的液態水的地方，會不會也有某些形式的生命存在呢？
That discovery sealed Galileo''s ultimate fate. If the spacecraft, after running out of maneuvering fuel, should crash into Europa, it might contaminate that moon with stowaway microbes from Earth and confound future searchers for indigenous life. So the decision was made to vaporize the spacecraft by putting it on a collision course with Jupiter.
這個發現決定了伽利略的最終命運。如果它用完燃料後墜落在木衛二上，它可能會因從地球攜帶的微生物污染這個星球，並會混淆以後關於這個衛星上的本土生命的研究。因此，一致決定將伽利略號的航道調整，使其與木星相撞而墜毀。
"The course is unalterable," Dr. Alexander said. "The last fuel was expended several months ago, to make sure we hit the planet."
「它的命運是無法改變的，」亞歷山大博士說，「最後的燃料數月前已經被扔掉以保證它將在木星上墜毀。」
Tracking data show that the craft, traveling 30 miles a second toward the end, will crash into Jupiter on its night side. At 12:50 p.m., Pacific time, the old Galileo hands in Pasadena, hearing no radio signal, will know that their spacecraft is no more.
飛船的軌道數據顯示了它以每秒3 0英里的速度撞入木星的黑面。在太平洋時間凌晨0:50分，歲月蒼蒼的伽利略號將失去訊號。此時，它已經墜毀了。

Seven Wonders of Ancient Egypt 探秘古埃及金字塔
The pilgrims that come here today are following the footsteps of those who have come here for 17 centuries. It is gratifying to see people who come here as casual tourists and then become aware of the tremendous spiritual heritage that is here, and they come as tourists and they leave as pilgrims.
From this site, Moses is believed to have shown his people the way to their promised land, and the Jewish nation was born.
Egypt had long had its own icons in mythologies. The most mysterious of all is the largest free-standing stone sculpture in the world. No one is certain who it represents or even who built it. Half human, half animal, the Sphinx has long been considered the strangest icon on earth. At 60 meters long and 20 high, it guards the Giza plateau beside Egypt's two largest pyramids. For centuries, the Sphinx has been seen as the key to life. Pharaohs have worshiped at its feet. Conquerors have knelt down before it. The Sphinx has been subjected to every test, but remains an enigma. Why was it built? Why are the tunnels inside it? Which king does it represent? What power does the Sphinx hold?
They call him Father of the Terra. They are afraid of him. And, can you imagine even the locals today are afraid of the Sphinx? The people at that time were also afraid--Maybe he is just here watching you all the time.
In ancient Egyptian art, the idea of fusing animal with human was nothing new. But this was the first time a human head was sculpted onto a lion's body. And in ancient Egypt, there was only one person who could be portrayed in such a way--the pharaoh himself.
The king, being the manifestation of Egypt, he has to be virile, mighty, fearless and powerful. So, you have here the head of the king representing intelligence, but the body of a lion representing might and power.
The Sphinx stands in a vast U-shaped quarry before the Great Pyramid built by Khufu and the second pyramid built by his son Khafre. It is thought to represent one of them. But why build a sculpture in the middle of a pyramid complex?
It's cut from actual rock. So, this huge rock was standing there. So, they decided to do something with it. And that thing would have been a huge statue that would manifest the king and in the mean time, it would be a symbol for the sun god Ra.

Cuba in the toilet
Now for our "What In The World" segment. Here's what got my attention this week - a roll of toilet paper. Certainly not the normal subject for us here at GPS, but this is special toilet paper - Cuban toilet paper. It turns out Cuba may be running out of this stuff. The government has warned its citizens in recent days that they are facing a toilet paper shortage. And they added this paucity of paper could last until the end of the year, when they expect a shipment to come in.
So how did this happen? Well, the Cubans blame it on the global financial crisis and the hurricanes that they were hit with last year. Now the financial crisis is hurting everyone, but I had yet to hear shortfalls in toilet paper in other places. What I think is really at the bottom of this toilet paper crisis is Cuba's continuing commitment to its bizarre world of socialistic economics. Just two weeks ago, Raul Castro vowed, yet again, to keep communism alive in Cuba, to make sure capitalism doesn't return. In a world of flux, I suppose it is comforting to know that something stays the same.
Cuba's disastrous economy would be a joke where not for the poverty it has perpetuated among millions of Cubans. The whole country is stagnating. Fifty percent of its arable fields are going unfarmed. First and second year college students now work one month out of the year in agriculture. Its insane farm policies lead to frequent shortages of fruit, vegetables and other basic food needs, shortages even more serious than toilet paper. And all those programs they've held up for years as successes of the communist revolution - free ecation for all through college, universal healthcare. Well, Raul Castro just announced that they're gonna have to make cuts in all of these. Meanwhile, the average Cuban still earns the equivalent of less than 20 dollars per month.
Now capitalism has its problems as we have all seen, but at least we are not running out of toilet paper.

Angry typhoon victims
The military helicopters are bringing in the last of the stranded villagers now for some of their relatives and friends, who have been waiting here for days, there is relief. For others though, there is the anguish of not knowing.
"Help us, please save my children, I have been waiting four days already." Says this woman.
At her tent, anger, especially at local officials.
"They said it was safe and we didn't need to evacuate. Now there is not even a road to get back." He says.
And the man, who is the focus of much of the national blame is President Ma Ying-jeou, often confronted by angry survivors as he toured the disaster zone.
"How do you respond to people who blame you and your government, and say listen this was just all too slow to begin with, and then, when it did get underway, it just wasn't enough."
"Now, we certainly, I will take full responsibility, whatever the blame is, because, after all, I am the president of this country."
But President Ma says the slow start was because of bad weather, heavy rain left helicopters grounded.
"Once the weather is good, in one day, that is the 14th of August, we were able to evacuate 2518 people. It's a record."
But there was outrage last week, when he blamed local officials.
"They were not fully prepared."
So now he's seen comforting the grieving, apologizing, promising to do better. But as he opened the weekend baseball game, he was booed and jeered. Protesters demanded his resignation.
"We'll find out, not only to correct the mistakes, but also may try to punish the people who are responsible."
As the rescue operations slowly wind down, the focus will soon shift to rebuilding lives and communities. Taiwan's embattled president told me that simply repairing all the damage from Typhoon Morakot could take up to a year.

Japan's ramen robot
Japan's obsession with the machines has gone one step further with this creation - a ramen noodle robot chef. At the Fuamen Ramen Noodle shop in the central Japanese city of Nagoya, two robotic arms are busy serving their hungry customers, doling out nearly 80 bowls of noodles on a busy day. Kenji Nagoya, the owner of the noodle shop and a robot manufacturer, says nobody gets it as accurate as the robots.
"The benefits of using robots as Ramen chefs include the accuracy of timing in boiling noodles, precise movements in adding toppings and consistency in the taste."
Nagoya's robot factory opened the noodle shop less than a month ago to showcase its latest robotic technology. The noodle shop which sells a regular noodle bowl with a pork broth-based soup for seven dollars is yet to make profit, partly e to the large investment in the research and development of the robotic arms. But the restaurant is definitely getting a lot of attention and building its reputation. Customers say the noodles taste as good as those made by humans.
"I don't feel any difference in taste between this ramen and those cooked by human chef."
Humans are not completely out of the equation and do have to step in occasionally to prepare the soup stock, take orders and receive money. But the robot arms will take care of the rest. The machines are pre-programmed to boil noodles, pour the soup into bowls and sprinkle toppings. Customers get to watch the whole process of the automated ramen making which takes one minute and forty seconds per bowl. During downtime the robots entertain customers by demonstrating various tricks.

It's a drag
A different sort of car concern across the country - illegal street racing, putting the pedal to the metal is often glorified on the big screen, but in reality street racing can be deadly, killing dozens of people every year. It』 become such a problem in one particular Texas town that a professional track is welcoming would-be raced... Oh, I should say drag racers, in an effort to keep the danger off the public roadways.
It』s not NASCAR and it』s definitely not Indy. 「One, two.」 But these races at the Texas Motor Speedway may be much more important.
"We are trying to get people off the streets from doing this illegally.」
And with good reason, just last week, a teen died in a drag racing accident in Fort Worth. Across the country about 30 people die each year in racing accidents. So officials at the Texas Motor Speedway came up with the plan - open this racetrack to everyone.
"It』s an eighth of a mile, so we try to pair them up to where my PT Cruiser isn't racing as a star, you know, Mustang, Shelby Cobra.」
So far the event's been a huge success with about 125 drivers each week. Drivers paid a play just 20 bucks.
"It's just the burning-out, just not having to worry about the cops. And everything is safe.」
"Fastest I've been so far in the eighth mile was 6.1 at 114-mile-an-hour.」
Chad Marquez admits he』s done illegal drag racing before but says it』s not worth the possible jail-time or worse.
"There I read the car hurt somebody, it』s not worth it.」
Here fire crews are standing by just in case.
"Your most drags strips are a quarter of mile, so you can get going a whole lot faster than you can here, a lot of these cars aren't going, 100+ miles an hour when they get to the end. But I think it just gets back to, you know everybody』s get a little bit hot rod in them, you know, that's, that』s the appeal.」

逐步淘汰全國學校考試
在孩子7歲，11歲，14歲進行的所有的全國性的考試都可以被取消，英國某負責學校考試的機構負責人建議說。
KenBoston說一小部分學生可以參加考試，而不是監督國家標准。
這可以與針對孩子個人的「漸進性測試」方法結合起來，他對《時代周刊》說。
政府表示，並不打算取消國家測試，並稱國家測試體制能夠激勵學生進步。
批評者表示，考試為教師製造了太多負擔，同時使得課堂活動過於狹窄的只以考試為重點。
抽樣：
Boston先生，QCA（可以譯為資質和課程委員會）首席執行官，稱通過抽樣調查可以獲得更細化的結果。
測試被安排由全英國所有7歲，11歲，14歲的孩子參加。測試結果構成學校排名表的基礎。
Boston先說對時代周刊說，"在10年內用相同的試卷進行抽樣測試可以給出比當前結果更細化的結論"
「就目前來看，測試應該保留，但是當漸進性測試得以實施，並且小學生在整個關鍵階段（譯者註：這裡面所謂關鍵階段就是指在英國國家教育體系下將兒童學習劃分的幾個階段，分別是：5-7，7-11，11-14，14-16）的表現信息可以由此獲得時，我們可以考慮從另一個方式獲取全國性的信息」
新的資質：
一位教育與技術部門新聞發言人說，該部門正在就有關提案進行咨詢，該提案意圖讓孩子參加更多測試，從他們有能力參加考試的一刻起，而不是直到一個漫長的關鍵階段的最後才參加考試。
他還說「很多好學校已經在第五年的時候開展可選的國家測試，或者將第三階段的考試提前一年」
波士頓先生還建議，應該允許英國航空公司、瑪莎公司等僱主提供資質認證。
他說這種內部員工的業務培訓，將有助於縮小技能方面的差距。
Boston先生說他設想的制度下，英國航空公司可以提供航空客運事務的資質認定。
他說「企業每年花費330億英鎊用於培訓，其中大量活動都不受監管」
Boston先生將在QCA發布其年度報告後再度發言。
