CNN News: 安倍抢头槽第一个见到特朗普 却被“放了鸽子”

Taking you to Capitol Hill today, where things are starting to take shape after the November 8 election, when the 115th Congress convenes early next January, Paul Ryan, a Republican from Wisconsin, will remain speaker of the House of Representatives. He was reelected earlier this week to serve as second term in the position.

11月8号，总统大选之后，形势开始发生变化。第115届国会将于明年1月召开。保罗·莱恩，来自威斯康辛州的共和党人，将会继续担任众议院的发言人。在本周早些时候，他被第二次选择担当此职位。

The job of House minority leader though was less certain. It`s currently held by Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat from California. She`s running to keep the job, but Ohio Democrat Tim Ryan announced yesterday he plans to challenge her for it.

尽管众议院少数党领袖还不确定。目前由南希·佩洛西,来自加州的民主党人主持。她在进行该项工作，但是来自俄亥俄州的民主党人士蒂姆·瑞恩昨日宣布，要竞选该职位。

In the Senate, Republicans reelected Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell as majority leader. Democratic Senator Harry Reid from Nevada is the current minority, but he`s retiring, and Senate Democrats chose Chuck Schumer from New York as the new Senate minority leader.

在参议院,共和党人再次选择肯塔基州参议员麦康奈尔当选多数党领袖。来自内华达州的民主党参议员哈里·瑞德是当前少数党领袖,但他即将退休,民主党参议员选择来自纽约的查克•舒默作为新参议院少数党领袖。

There will be a change in the president of the Senate, too. The U.S. vice president serves in this role, but doesn`t get a vote unless senators are evenly divided 50-50. The president of the Senate can then cast the tie breaker. Right now, the job is held by Vice President Joe Biden. On January 20th, inauguration day, it will shift to Vice President-elect Mike Pence.

参议院议长也将改变。美国副总统是这个角色不会投票,除非参议员均匀划分一半对一半。现在，工作由副总统乔•拜登负责。在1月20日，就职日，将会转到新任的副总统迈克·彭斯。

So, the transition is underway and as part of that, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump is scheduled to hold a two-hour meeting today to discuss his team`s progress and potential appointees to his cabinet. He met with several candidates for that yesterday. In addition, the former U.S.Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and current Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. He traveled to New York yesterday for the get-together. The Japanese leader is the first foreign head of state who Mr. Trump has met in person since he was elected.

总统接任工作正在进行，新任总统唐纳德·特朗普正在安排举行两个小时的会议讨论团队进度以及那个的任命工作。昨日，他会见了几位候选人。此外，美国前国务卿亨利·基辛格和现任日本首相安倍会面。安倍昨日抵达纽约。自特朗普当选美国总统后，这位日本的领导人是首位会见特朗普的国外领导人。
