CNN News:美国空军对呼罗珊发动袭击 谷歌X实验室将研究一种新型纳米药丸对疾病进行检测

Fridays are awesome! And after a week of laryngitis it feels good to be able to say that like that. Thanks for sticking with me. I`m Carl Azuz for CNN STUDENT NEWS.

周五是极好的。就像得了一周咽炎之后最后你会说喜欢这种治愈的感觉。感谢观看CNN学生新闻，我是Carl Azuz。

First up, a U.S. airstrike in Syria. But this attack wasn`t aimed at ISIS. It was aimed at Khorasan, another terrorist group operating in the war-torn nation. The attack was on Wednesday night, the target was a vehicle that the U.S. believed was carrying a bomb maker from France. Considered a very dangerous operative, he joined up with Khorasan terrorists in Syria.

今天的新闻首先来说一说美国在叙利亚的空袭。但是这次空袭不是针对ISIS。此次空袭针对的是呼罗珊，在这个饱受战争蹂躏国家发动袭击的另一个恐怖组织。空袭发生在周三的晚上，袭击目标为一辆美国方面认为搭载一个法国炸弹制造者的汽车。考虑到行动的危险性，他亲自加入了呼罗珊在叙利亚的恐怖分子行列。s

U.S. officials don`t know if he was killed. They think he was. But they say they are making progress against ISIS and Khorasan in Syria.

美国方面尚不清数是否已经击毙该男子，但是他们认为他已经死亡。美国方面还表示在对抗ISIS和呼罗珊恐怖组织进程中已经取得了进展。

U.S. has targeted Khorasan before, it`s made up of former members of the al Qaeda terrorist group, and the U.S. believes it`s plotting new attacks against Western countries, including America.

美国之前对呼罗珊发起过进攻，这个恐怖组织由以前基地组织成员组建而成，并且美国方面认为它正在对西方国家策划实施新的袭击行为，其中袭击目标包括美国。

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Time for "The Shoutout." Cytology is the study of what? You know what to do. Is it resources? Cultures? Cells or blood. You`ve got three seconds, go!

又到了“大声喊话”环节了，细胞学研究的是什么?你知道你该怎么做。是研究资源?文化?还是细胞或者血液的?你有三秒钟考虑时间，开始。

A cytologist studies living cells, and may focus on those that cause disease. That`s your answer and that`s your shoutout.

细胞学家研究的是活细胞，那些可能导致某些疾病发生的细胞。这就是你的答案，下面正式进入“大声喊话”环节。

In one way cytologist do that is by looking at blood samples. Those can indicate how organs are functioning, what disease people may have. From heart disease to pre-diabetes to cancer. But blood tests can take days or weeks to yield results.

其中一种研究方法就是细胞学家观察血液样本。这些样本可以显示器官的目前工作状况，还有患者得了什么疾病。从心脏病到糖尿病前期到癌症都可以观察出来。但是血样检测则需要几天或者几周的时间才能得到结果。

And news came out recently that a technology company is experimenting with nanoparticles, trying to fit a test into a pill.

最近从一个科技公司传来消息称正在对纳米粒子进行测验，试图将其浓缩成药丸大小。

Google X Labs is creating a pill aimed at detecting cancer and other conditions. Here is how it would work: tiny particles from the pill are programmed to spread throughout the body and latch on to abnormal cells. A wearable device tracks the particles in theory to find out if cancer or other diseases are present, monitoring would be on a daily basis, and information can be downloaded by doctors. This could make many blood and urine samples obsolete.

谷歌X实验室正在研究一种旨在于用来检测癌症和其他疾病的药丸。它的工作原理是：药丸粒子被编程扩散到身体的各个部位并对异常细胞进行围困。一个可佩戴的追踪器可以对粒子进行追踪找出是否发现有疾病或者癌症发生。这种监察将会每天进行，并且医生可以下载监察信息。这种方式可以淘汰过时的血检和尿检方式。

Google has come under fire for privacy and security in the past, but they say they won`t be handling individual data. A partner will do that.

谷歌对过去隐私和安全进行了防火墙设置，但是他们称不会对私人数据信息进行处理。另一个合作伙伴将会对此进行处理工作。

If this sounds too good to you, don`t get too excited: it could take years for the technology to be ready if ever.

这听起来可能太好了，但是不要高兴太早，这种技术的研究可能需要数年时间来准备。
