CNN News:美国向叙利亚增派250名士兵打击IS

An increase of U.S. troops. President Obama made the announcement yesterday. There are 50 U.S. troops currently in Syria. As many as 250 additional forces are on the way for a total of 300.

昨日，美国总统奥巴马布将向叙利亚增派250名军事人员，以帮助叙温和派反政府武装打击极端组织“伊斯兰国”。美国此前派驻叙利亚的一支50人特种部队。

Why this is significant? For one thing, it`s an addition to the U.S.-led airstrikes against the ISIS terrorist group in Syria. The president says the Americas will be training and helping local forces who are fighting ISIS and that the American troops will build on the momentum that the local forces have gained on the ground in Syria.

为什么这具有重要的意义呢?首先，是要增援美国对叙利亚的伊斯兰国恐怖组织的空袭。奥巴马称美国将训练并帮助当地部队对抗ISIS，同时要帮助当地部队夺回伊斯兰国占领的领土。

The critics say 300 U.S. troops isn`t enough to effectively defeat ISIS and that the increase goes against a promise that President Obama made in 2013 when he said no U.S. boots would be on the ground in the fight. The White House says U.S. forces will not have a combat role.

批评人士称，300名军事人员并不足以有效对抗伊斯兰国，同时在叙利亚增加兵力违背了奥巴马总统在2013年作出的承若：美国军队将不会参与叙利亚地面作战。但是白宫称美国军队并不会扮演作战角色。

Trains are running again at the Maalbeek metro station in the capital in Belgium. Until yesterday, they`ve been shut down following terrorist attacks there ended the Brussels airport on March 22nd.

比利时首都Maalbeek地铁站列车重新运营。直到昨天，由于3月22日布鲁塞尔机场恐怖袭击案，Maalbeek地铁站一直关闭。

The bombings killed more than 30 people at the two sites, hundreds of others were wounded, the full reopening of the station is seen as another symbolic step toward healing.

两处的恐怖爆炸导致30余人死亡，数百人受伤。列车全部重现运营是愈合的另一个象征。
