Hi. I`m Carl Azuz. Welcome to CNN STUDENT NEWS. And the first official day of fall. Today, is the autumnal equinox when day is almost exactly as long night. It`s also at leaders from all over the worlds, they are meeting at the United Nations headquarters in New York. Five things to know about this.

大家好我是Carl Azuz,欢迎收看CNN学生新闻,这是第一个秋季官方日子,今天是秋分,是一年中白天也夜晚一样长的一天。世界上来自各国的领导正在聚集在联合国驻扎在纽约的办事处举行会议,关于此次会议有五点需要知道的事情。

One, it`s called the U.N. General Assembly. It started in 1946 with 51 countries represented. Today, there are 193. Two, the General Assembly is one of six branches of the United Nations. It`s the only branch that offers all member countries the chance to vote on various issues.

第一,此次会议被称为联合国大会,在1946年开始举行,有51个国家参加。到今天已经有193个国家参与此会议。二,联合国大会是联合国六个分支中的一支。这是唯一一个为所有成员国就各种重大问题投票的机构。

Three, regardless of those votes or agreements or resolutions, though, the General Assembly has no power to enforce them. That brings up four. The event is like a giant international sounding board. There are many speeches, but usually little action.

三,不管这些投票或者协议,或者决议也好,大会没有权利执行。下面就是第四点,整个事件就好像是一个国际型董事会,有很多发言和演讲,但是不会采取行动。

Five, a wide range of subjects can be discussed including climate change. Tens of thousands marched in New York City this week to draw attention to the issue. A U.N. summit on climate change is set for tonight. But it`s not the only issue before the U.N. General Assembly.

五,讨论话题包括很多方面,包括气候问题。本周数万人在纽约举行游行呼吁解决气候问题。联合国峰会关于气候问题的决定今晚将作出决定。但是这不是联合国大会需要解决的为唯一问题。

Inside this General Assembly hall where the nations of the world, they are supposed to get together in harmony, people have issues. Beef with other countries and capitals.

在举行大会的大厅里聚集着来自世界各地的国家代表,共同聚集到一起共同探讨解决世界正面临的问题。

The United States will have beef with Russia over Ukraine, the United States will have beef with Syria, which is here over the terrible violence that`s gone on there for years. And oftentimes, it will have beef with either Palestinians or Israel, whichever side they feel is not complying with the Washington`s wishes.

联合国将会就乌克兰问题与俄罗斯进行讨论,美国将会就叙利亚多年的暴力冲突问题与叙利亚进行讨论。其他时间将会与巴勒斯坦或者以色列共同探讨问题解决华盛顿所担忧的问题。

This will not come as a surprise. There will not be a Middle East peace agreement signed at this year`s General Assembly session. However, Israel and the Palestinians will definitely verbally duke it out. Gaza, the big battle for Gaza really inflamed the situation. There were no current peace talks. Right now I`d say the big dispute is Ukraine, Russia. It doesn`t seem to end despite whatever progress is made. I think you will see denunciations of Moscow from various Baltic nations and the West, and unless the situation drastically improves, I think that`s what you are going to find as the major contest here.

这并不吃惊。中东和平协议不太可能在今年联合国大会上签订,然而以色列和巴勒斯坦将会就此展开激烈讨论。加沙,关于加沙的战争冲突是现在解决的要点,目前没有和平谈判举行,现在我想说的是,棘手的问题仍然是乌克兰和俄罗斯。无论取得什么样的进展双方的争论似乎并没有停止。我认为,你会看到莫斯科被波罗的海国家和西方国家严重谴责,除非双方争论加剧,我想你会看到一场盛大的辩论赛。

It`s very rare for health issues, such as Ebola to dominate the headlines at the United Nations General Assembly. There is real fear of its spreading. Western African leaders are going to be here. There is no doubt, Ebola will be part of their remarks and will probably feature calls for help and global assistance to help fight the spread.

在联合国大会上讨论卫生问题很少见,例如今年的大会被埃博拉疫情占据了头条。目前最令人害怕的是疫情的传播,西非领导人正在前往这里,毫无疑问,埃博拉将会是他们讨论的主要话题,可能会向全国寻求帮助来共同控制疫情的传播。

Hillary Clinton I believe once said that one week of General Assembly can take one year off your life. It can be exhausting, many diplomats told me that appearing at the General Assembly for a world leader is like diplomatic speed dating. You`ve got five minutes with this president, two minutes with this foreign minister. Presumably they`ll all come with schedule and an agenda and a goal of what they want to do, but it`s real hurley-burley of diplomatic activity.

希拉里克林顿曾说开一周的联合国大会需要休息一年。大会会让你筋疲力尽,许多外交官都告诉我参加联合国大会的国家领导人都像是参加外交速配,与这个总统有五分总讨论时间,与另一位外交官有两分钟时间。他们每个人都会有详细的计划议程和明确的目标,但是这确实是非常令人疲惫的外交活动。
