Tornadoes rip through four central U.S. states
美国中部四州遭巨大龙卷风袭击
Flattened homes and scattered debris in the U.S. state of Oklahoma after a massive storm ripped through four central U.S. states on Sunday. Local media said at least one person died here in Shawnee, just outside Oklahoma City. Fist-sized hail, blinding rain and more than two dozen tornadoes were reported in parts of Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas and Illinois. Chuck Walton described the moment one tornado hit.
周日，美国中部四个州遭龙卷风袭击，俄克拉荷马州的房屋被夷为平地，到处都是散落的碎片。当地媒体称在俄克拉荷马城外的肖尼市，至少造成一人死亡。有报道称，在爱荷华州、俄克拉何马州、堪萨斯州和伊利诺斯州的部分地区都出现了拳头大小的冰雹、倾盆大雨以及20多个龙卷风。查克·沃尔顿描述了一龙卷风袭击的时刻。
CHUCK WALTON, HOME DAMAGED BY TORNADO SAYING: "No sooner than we got in the basement, we saw heavy wind and heavy rain and after it subsided we saw that we had sustained quite a bit of damage." Meteorologists had been warning for days that a powerful front was expected to blast through the region, spawning potentially destructive twisters as it made its way north from Texas. The extreme weather is expected to continue into Monday.
房屋遭龙卷风破坏的居民查克·沃尔顿：“龙卷风一来我们就躲进了地下里，我们目睹了大风和大雨，一切平息后我们遭受了相当大的损失。”几天前气象学家就一直发出警告称，一股强峰预计会经过这些地区，从德克萨斯州向北部前行并产生潜在破坏性的龙卷风。极端的天气预计将持续至周一。
North Korea fires two more missiles
朝鲜再发两枚短程导弹
More missiles launched from North Korea's coast as tensions continue to escalate. South Korea said its neighbour had fired two short-range missiles into the sea on Monday, making six launches in three days. The North said military exercises were the legitimate right of any country and that it was coping with what it called "mounting war measures from the U.S. and South Korea".
更多的导弹从朝鲜海岸发射出来，紧张局势继续升级。韩国表示朝鲜于周一向海内发射了两枚短程导弹，使得三天内发射的导弹达到六枚。朝鲜表示军事演习是任何国家的合法权利，此举是为了应对其所谓的“来自美韩逐渐发起的战争手段”。
Pyongyang has condemned joint U.S.-South Korean military drills, repeatedly threatening nuclear attacks against both countries. The United Nations Security Council imposed tougher sanctions against North Korea following its third nuclear test in February. Missile launches by the North are not uncommon, but have raised concerns about regional security amid threats from Pyongyang.
平壤谴责美韩联合军事演习，多次威胁要核打击这两个国家。自二月朝鲜进行第三次核试以来，联合国安理会对朝施加了更加严厉的制裁。朝鲜发射导弹屡见不鲜，但平壤的威胁增加了对地区安全的担忧。
Britain's Princes William and Harry open care centre for soldiers
英国王子威廉和哈利为士兵保健中心举行开幕
Britain's Princes William and Harry arrive at a new facility that will offer help and support to injured service personnel. The Duke of Cambridge and his brother Prince Harry officially opened the Help for Heroes Recovery Centre at Tedworth House in the west of England. Help for Heroes is building, equipping and running four recovery centres to provide ongoing support for wounded and sick servicemen and women and veterans. The Duke of Cambridge said the centre reflected the huge sense of gratitude felt by the British public to those serving in the armed forces.
英国王子威廉和哈利抵达一所新建的机构，该机构将为受伤的军人提供帮助和支持。在英格兰西部泰德沃斯住宅，剑桥公爵和他的弟弟哈里王子为“帮助英雄康复中心”举行开幕。该机构正在建设、配备和运营四个康复中心，为受伤、生病和退伍的军人提供持续支持。剑桥公爵称该中心反应了英国公众对服役军人的巨大感恩。
DUKE OF CAMBRIDGE SAYING: "When Harry and I, like so many other young men and women, first donned our Help for Heroes wristbands, only six years ago, not even we, as servicemen, could have guessed the scale of the challenges ahead. In 2007 the nation was beginning to wake up to the reality of the debt we owed to its wounded and sick servicemen returning from overseas." Tedworth House is the first centre to open and can accommodate 50 residents, four families and over 150 day visitors.
剑桥公爵说：“当哈利和我像许多其他年轻人一样，首先戴上帮助英雄护腕，就在六年前，就是身为军人的我们也料想不到未来面临的挑战。2007年，国家开始认清这比现实的债务—亏钱那些海外归来的受伤和生病军人。”泰德沃斯住宅是首家服务中心，能够容纳50个居民，四户家庭以及150多名游客。
