CNN News: 美国举行2016年总统大选首场电视辩论 希拉里特朗普正面交锋

Hi, everyone. It`s good to see you today. I`m Carl Azuz. And welcome you to CNN STUDENT NEWS on this last week of September 2016.

大家好，非常高兴在今天和大家见面。我是卡尔·阿祖兹。欢迎您收看CNN 学生新闻.本周是2016年9月的最后一周.

The stage is set. At 9:00 Eastern Time tonight, the lights, the cameras and the action will be on at Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York.

一切已经准备就绪.在东部时间今晚9点,纽约市霍夫斯特拉大学，灯光、摄像机等一切已经准备完毕。

It`s the first of three scheduled U.S. presidential debates between Republican nominee Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

这是共和党总统候选人唐纳德·特朗普以及民主党候选人希拉里·克林顿的美国总统大选的首场辩论。

The two main candidates are making last minute preparations and so is Lester Holt. He`s a news anchor at NBC and the moderator of tonight`s debate.

两位候选人以及主持人莱斯特·赫特在做最后的准备。莱斯特·赫特是NBC的新闻主播NBC，同时也是今晚的辩论的主持人。

And there`s a debate going on over the moderator`s role. Should he fact- check the candidates? We don`t know if Mr. Holt will do that tonight. But while some people believe the moderator should immediately correct the candidates if they make false claims, others say that`s not a good idea, that the candidates should fact-check each other like they have in the past.

对于主持人的角色也存在争论?他是否应该核实候选者的言辞是否真实?我们不清楚，今晚赫特是否会这样做。但是部分人认为，如果候选人发表不当言辞，主持人应该立刻予以纠正。但其他人认为这样做不妥，因为在过去的总统竞选中，候选人并未互相核实对方的言辞。

One thing no one`s debating about the debate is that it`s a big one. Analysts expect it could draw 100 million or more viewers, like the Super Bowl. And a recent poll showed that one-third of voters said the debate would significantly influence their decision on whom to support.

大家一致同意，此次总统选举将会是一件大事。分析人士预计，这次活动将同美国橄榄球超级杯大赛一样，吸引1亿名观众。同时最近的一项民意调查显示,三分之一的选民说表示,辩论将显著影响自己的决定。

And while we`re on the subject of polls, a recent ABC News/"Washington Post" poll shows 46 percent of likely voters support Clinton, 44 percent support Trump, 5 percent support libertarian candidate Gary Johnson, and 1 percent support Green Party candidate Jill Stein. The polls margin of error: 4.5 percent.

最近ABC新闻/“华盛顿邮报”调查显示,46%的选民支持克林顿, 44%的特朗普，5%支持自由主义候选人加里·约翰逊,1%支持绿党候选人吉尔斯坦。民意调查误差为:4.5%。

Keep in mind that different polls even in the same state can find different results. But most do suggest a very close race between the two main candidates.

在相同的国家，不同的民意调查结果也不相同。但是结果都显示，这两位总统候选人之间将有一次激烈的角逐。
