CNN News：朝韩讨论朝艺术团亮相平昌冬奥会

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.

朝鲜计划派遣一支管弦乐队前往韩国参加下个月举行的冬季奥运会。这个140人的团队将是朝鲜代表团的一部分，包括运动员、艺术家、啦啦队员和新闻记者。自本月早些时候朝鲜和韩国两方开始举行会谈以来，两国之间的关系已经取得了突破。但在去年，朝鲜还威胁要袭击韩国以及美国。美国是韩国的盟友。而美国也在威胁朝鲜。

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.

美国的关岛，夏威夷州和美国其他地区，这可能成为朝鲜的袭击目标，而这些地区一直在为防卫做准备。其中一个准备是是夏威夷的紧急导弹警报系统，该系统周六错误地向该州的人民发出了警告。

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.

明显，不发射导弹。也就没有威胁。但由于美国和朝鲜之间的紧张关系加剧，这一虚假警报使美国第50个州的许多居民感到恐惧，因为夏威夷位于两个美国和朝鲜之间。
