$1.1 trillion, trillion with at, that is more than the government takes in and it would fund thegovernment through the end of September.

1.1万亿美元,这笔钱不仅仅会被政府吸纳,而且还将资助政府直到9月底。

Two, it's not a done deal.

第二,这不项已经板上钉钉的事情。

 

 

A House vote is expected today, aSenate one later this week, and the president would have to sign it.

今天众议院将预计投票,而参议院则会在本周晚些时候,而后总统必须签字。

Three, it reportedly contains no earth-shaking changes.

第三,据说它并不囊括能够撼动地球般的变化。

It gives government workers a small pay raise, it could speed up security screenings for someairplane passengers.

它会给政府雇员少量的加薪,可以加快一些搭乘飞机乘客的安全检查。

It would get rid of a government law banning certain light bulbs.

这将摆脱政府禁止某些法律的举措。

Beyond that, this bill would send America's national and international spending priorities in themonths ahead.

除此之外,这项法案将在未来几个月内提升美国和国际支出的优先级。

An American working in Russia was recently kicked out of the country.

Russia says he broke the law by staying illegally for five days in November.

俄罗斯方面称他违反了法律规定,在11月非法居留了五天。

His case was heard in court, he was fined and he was ordered to leave, which he did inDecember.

他被带到法庭,判决下来是被罚款,被命令离开,他在12月就是这样。

These kinds of expulsions are common, according to the Russian government.

这些驱逐据俄罗斯政府称很常见。

The country says more than 500,000 people from other nations have been asked to stay out ofRussia for breaking the rules.

这个国家表示来自其他国家的超过500000人因为违反规则被要求远离俄罗斯。

But the American, a journalist named David Satter says he didn't.

但是对于那名美国人,这位名叫大卫·萨特的记者则表示他没有触犯法律。

He thinks it was because he was critical of the Russian government.

他认为被驱逐是因为他批评俄罗斯政府。

The country's constitution does guarantee the freedom of the mass media and it makescensorship illegal, but when CNN's John Vause recently interviews Satter he said it wasprobably his speech that got him kicked out.

这个国家的宪法保证大众媒体的自由,所以它就使审查非法化,但当CNN的约翰·沃斯最近采访萨特时候他说这可能是自己的言辞使他被踢出俄罗斯。
