CNN News：朝韓討論朝藝術(shù)團(tuán)亮相平昌冬奧會(huì)

North Korea is planning to send an orchestra to South Korea for the Winter Olympic Games that start next month. The 140-member group will be part of the North Korean delegation that also includes athletes, artists, cheerleaders and news reporters. There`s been a breakthrough between the two rival countries since they started holding talks earlier this month. But it was just last year that North Korea was threatening to strike South Korea, as well as the U.S., an ally of South Korea. And America was threatening North Korea as well.

朝鮮計(jì)劃派遣一支管弦樂(lè)隊(duì)前往韓國(guó)參加下個(gè)月舉行的冬季奧運(yùn)會(huì)。這個(gè)140人的團(tuán)隊(duì)將是朝鮮代表團(tuán)的一部分，包括運(yùn)動(dòng)員、藝術(shù)家、啦啦隊(duì)員和新聞?dòng)浾?。自本月早些時(shí)候朝鮮和韓國(guó)兩方開(kāi)始舉行會(huì)談以來(lái)，兩國(guó)之間的關(guān)系已經(jīng)取得了突破。但在去年，朝鮮還威脅要襲擊韓國(guó)以及美國(guó)。美國(guó)是韓國(guó)的盟友。而美國(guó)也在威脅朝鮮。

So, the U.S. territory of Guam, the state of Hawaii, and other parts of the U.S., which could be possible targets of the communist country, have been making preparations to defend themselves. One of them, an emergency missile alert system in Hawaii, mistakenly sent out a warning on Saturday to everyone in the state.

美國(guó)的關(guān)島，夏威夷州和美國(guó)其他地區(qū)，這可能成為朝鮮的襲擊目標(biāo)，而這些地區(qū)一直在為防衛(wèi)做準(zhǔn)備。其中一個(gè)準(zhǔn)備是是夏威夷的緊急導(dǎo)彈警報(bào)系統(tǒng)，該系統(tǒng)周六錯(cuò)誤地向該州的人民發(fā)出了警告。

To be clear, no missile was actually launched. There was no threat. But the false alarm terrified many residents of the 50th U.S. state because of heightened tensions between the U.S. and North Korea, and because Hawaii is located between the two mainland countries.

明顯，不發(fā)射導(dǎo)彈。也就沒(méi)有威脅。但由于美國(guó)和朝鮮之間的緊張關(guān)系加劇，這一虛假警報(bào)使美國(guó)第50個(gè)州的許多居民感到恐懼，因?yàn)橄耐奈挥趦蓚€(gè)美國(guó)和朝鮮之間。
