CNN News: 特朗普发表国情咨文

 
Political headlines in the United States and abroad lead off today's edition of CNN 10. My name is Carl Azuz welcoming our viewers from around the world. Last night in the U.S. state of Iowa a series of meetings were held to help determine whom Americans will vote for in the 2020 presidential election. These are the Iowa caucuses. Voters will be moving around a room grouping up according to their favorite candidates and through this process they'll help determine a winner.
 
今天的CNN 10分钟新闻首先来关注美国国内外的政治头条。我是卡尔·阿祖兹，欢迎来自世界各地的观众。昨晚在美国爱荷华州举行了一系列会议，以决定美国人在2020年总统选举中投票给谁。这是爱荷华州的党团会议。选民将根据他们最喜欢的候选人在一个房间里进行分组，通过这个过程，他们将帮助确定获胜者。
 
Two candidates are challenging U.S. President Donald Trump for the Republican party's nomination but the incumbent leader is expected to win it without a problem. For Democrats though, there are 11 candidates in the race and a win in Iowa could give any one of them a lot of momentum going into the other caucuses and primaries while a loss could make the path forward a lot harder. Results came in after we produced this show but CNN.com will have the latest. The next contest on the election calendar is set for next Tuesday when the New Hampshire primaries are held.
 
两名候选人正在向美国总统川普挑战共和党总统候选人提名，但是预计现任总统川普将毫无悬念地赢得提名。不过，对民主党来说，有11名候选人参加竞选，如果在爱奥华州获胜，他们中的任何一人都可能在其他预选会议和初选中获得很大的动力，而如果失败，前进的道路就会更加艰难。结果是在我们制作了这个节目之后出来的，但是CNN.com将会有最新的结果。下次大选将于下周二举行，届时新罕布什尔州将举行初选。
 
Today is another big day in American politics. At 9 o'clock tonight President Trump is scheduled to fulfill a Constitutional requirement found in Article II, Section 3. Quote, "he shall from time to time give to the Congress information of the State of the Union and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient." The televised address as we know it and the opposing party's response have become tradition though they're not required by the Constitution.
 
今天是美国政治的又一个重要日子。今晚9点，特朗普总统将履行宪法第二条第三款的规定。引用"他应不时向国会提供国情咨文的信息并建议他们考虑采取必要和权宜的措施"我们所知道的电视讲话和反对党的回应已经成为了传统，尽管宪法并不要求这样做。
