1【Second Wold War bomb unearthed in Tokyo】二战遗留炸弹在东京挖掘
TEXT:Unearthing a piece of history - very carefully. Japanese soldiers lift an unexploded firebomb - thought to be 60 years old - from a construction site in downtown Tokyo. Officials believe it was dropped by the United States during the waning days of the Second World War. Police cordoned off a wide section of the Japanese capital - fearful the bomb would detonate.TOSHIHITO TAKAHASHI, JAPANESE SELF DEFENSE FORCE UNEXPLODED ORDINANCE DISPOSAL DIVISION, SAYING: "There are highly flammable chemicals inside the bomb, and they're designed to create fires in the area they're dispersed." In the months before Japan's surrender in 1945, the U.S. firebombed Tokyo, razing much of the capital and killing more than 100,000 people.
参考译文:一段历史的发掘--非常的小心。日本士兵将一枚未爆炸的炸弹从东京市区一建筑工地挖掘出来，炸弹可能是六十年前留下来的。日本官员认为这是二次世界大战期间美国投下来的。警方封锁了日本首都很大一块面积，担心炸弹可能会爆炸。日本自卫队未爆炸条例处理部门Toshihto Takahashi说：“炸弹里有高度易燃物质，会在驱散地区产生大火。”在1945年日本投降之前，美国对东京实行轰炸摧毁其大部分地区，造成100,000多人死亡。
2【Obama, Romney fight on】奥巴马大战罗姆尼
TEXT:U.S.President Barack Obama has diagnosed his Republican oponent with a new aliment. At an event in Virginia, Obama criticised Republican opponent Mitt Romney's backtracking. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA SAYING: "But now that we're 18 days out from the election, mister severely conservative wants you to think he was kidding about everything he said over the last year. He told folks that he was the ideal candidate for the tea party, now he's suddenly saying 'who me?' He's forgetting what his own positions are and he's betting that you will to. I mean he's changing so much, backtracking and sidestepping, we've got to name this condition he's going through, I think it's called Romnesia (crowd cheers) that's what it's called." And from Romney- an accusation of game playing from a campaign stop in Florida. U.S. REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE MITT ROMNEY SAYING: "Have you been watching the Obama campaign lately? It's absolutely remarkable they have no agenda for the future, no agenda for America, no agenda for a second term. Its a good thing they wont have a second term. They have been reduced to petty attacks, and silly word games. Just watch it. The Obama campaign has become the incredible shrinking campaign." The latest Reuters/ Ipsos polls show Obama ahead by 6%. Both candidates face off again during the final debate on Monday in Florida.
参考译文:美国总统巴拉克·奥巴马已经使用新招式向共和党竞争对手发出挑衅。在弗吉尼亚的一次活动上，奥巴马批评共和党对手米特·罗姆尼出尔反尔。巴拉克·奥巴马总统说：“现在我们离大选还有18天，这位严重保守派先生（指罗姆尼）想要你认为，在去年一年中他所说的都是玩笑。他告诉人们他是茶党理想的候选人，现在他突然说，是我吗？他正忘记自己的职位所在，他打赌你会这样。我的意思是他太善变了，出尔反尔以及回避，我们得对他的经历的取个名字，我想这就叫做'罗姆尼失忆症'。”在佛罗里达一次竞选活动中，罗姆尼指责这个博弈游戏。美国共和党总统候选人米特·罗姆尼说：“你最近一直在关注奥巴马竞选吗？毫无疑问他们对未来没有打算，对美国没有打算，对第二任期没有打算。要是他们没有第二任期是件好事。他们已经沦到只会玩些卑鄙的攻击，愚蠢的文字游戏，你看看，奥巴马竞选已经变成了难以置信退缩运动。”据最新Reuters/ Ipsos民意调查显示奥巴马领先罗姆尼6%。周一两位候选人将在佛罗里达州再次交锋，进行最后一场辩论。

TEXT:A massive car bomb in Beirut that killed eight people including a senior intelligence officer is being blamed on...Syria.

Lebanese Christian politician, Samir Geagea SOUNDBITE: Lebanese Christian Leader, Samir Geagea, Saying: ''He was one of the most serious security officials who was uncovering plots, and the most recent was the Michel Samaha case which he uncovered.

Protesters also blocked major roads. Lebanese officials say at least 80 people were wounded in the explosion which took place during rush hour.

CARL AZUZ, CNN ANCHOR: We`re a week and a half away from Halloween, the presidential election is two weeks off and you are right on time for a new week of CNN STUDENT NEWS. My name is Carl Azuz, let`s go ahead and get started.
First up, protesters in Lebanon, including one former prime minister, are speaking out against Lebanon`s current prime minister. They want him out of office. Lebanon is home to around 4 million people. It`s located in the Middle East, on the Mediterranean Sea, right next door to Syria. Some observers are concerned that the violence that`s been going in Syria could spread to Lebanon where it has already. Last Friday a car bomb went off in the Lebanese capital of Beirut. Three people were killed including the country`s intelligence chief. Syria spoke out against the attack, but some Lebanese officials blame Syria for it. Yesterday, after the intelligence leaders funeral protesters fought with security forces in Beirut. The crowd threw rocks, police used tear gas to break up the protests. Several people were reportedly injured.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Is this legit? Someone is officially recognized as a saint when he or she is canonized.
This is true. In the Roman Catholic Church, canonization is the act of recognizing a saint.
AZUZ: The Roman Catholic Church recognized seven people as new saints over the weekend. The canonization ceremony included some history as well. For the first time, a Native American was named a saint. During a special mass in Saint Peter`s Square on Sunday, Pope Benedict XVI and other worshippers celebrated the new saints. The pope praised Kateri Tekawitha for living a life of service. Tekawitha was a member of the Mohawk Tribe, sometimes known as Lily of the Mohawks. She converted to Catholicism and served as a nun.
This week is a special time for another world religion. It`s Hajj, one of the five main observances of Islam. Millions of Muslims participate in Hajj every year, traveling to the city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Fionnuala Sweeney has more on this annual tradition.
FIONNUALA SWEENEY, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Its name means "to set out for a place," and for Muslims around the world, that place is the holy city of Mecca. The Hajj has begun for millions of Muslims, with pilgrims making their way toward Islam`s most sacred site. A cube shaped building called the Kaabaa located in the Grand Mosque. For daily prayers, Muslims face this structure from any given point in the world. They are also required, if able, to make this pilgrimage at least once in their lives. And then walk seven times around the Kaabaa, counter clockwise in a ritual called the Tawaf.
IBTISAM SAYED HASSAN, EGYPTIAN PILGRIM (through translator): Islam is beautiful, and we are beautiful. We love all people, we love all countries.
SWEENEY: The Grand Mosque`s gleaming minarets soar skyward, pilgrims here cry as perform the daily prayers from these towers, calling the faithful five times a day. Fionnuala Sweeney, CNN.
AZUZ: To our viewers who are already on Facebook, at Facebook.com/cnnstudentnews, we asked if the release of a popular videogame could distract some people from voting.
Awnna says "Maybe. Some people are so obsessed with video games that they put aside the thought of who`s running our nation."
Nicolo assumes that most people who are interested in games aren`t as interested in the presidential election."
Janie writes, "I play games, but I`m voting this year. If someone lets a game to take their right to vote away, then they are ungrateful.
Tyler doesn`t think video games will be distracting. He says most people interested in Halo aren`t old enough to vote.
Jamie says, "Games are better than politics when the country is in dire financial crisis. You need something to lift people`s spirits and lighten the mood.
From Bridgette, "As a gamer, I get excited for releases and caught up in the game. But taking a few minutes to vote is not a difficult thing to do.
From Andrew, if a person puts a videogame before their future, then our country is in trouble. And Cambria says, "As time goes on, game releases could impact things if politics doesn`t move into a region that everyone cares deeply about.
But before we get to election day, President Obama and Republican presidential nominee Romney go head to head in person one more time. It`s debate number three, it`s in Boca Raton, Florida, it`s happening tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern. Before you watch the debate either on CNN or at cnn.com/debates, Athena Jones gives us a preview of what to look for.
ATHENA JONES, CNN CORRESPONDENT: The third and final face-off between President Obama and Governor Romney will focus entirely on foreign policy.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: No! Get out! Get out! Get out!
JONES: From Afghanistan and Pakistan to Israel, Iran and the changing Middle East.
JONES: The candidates will spar over America`s role in the world, the new face of terrorism and how to deal with the rising China. With polls showing the president`s advantage over Romney on foreign policy has narrowed since the summer, Mr. Obama tried to highlight one of his biggest foreign policy accomplishments at a light-hearted charity dinner in New York.
OBAMA: And Monday`s debate is a little bit different because the topic is foreign policy. Spoiler alert -- we got bin Laden.
JONES: For his part, Romney could try again to bash the president for his administration`s messy response to the attack in Libya last month and link it to what he says a failed approach to the region.
MITT ROMNEY, REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: This calls into question the president`s whole policy in the Middle East. Look what`s happening in Syria, in Egypt, now in Libya.
JON ALTERMAN, CSIS, DIR., MIDDLE EAST PROGRAM: The challenge for President Obama is going to be defining the Middle East strategy going forward. I mean, he`s had some successes, he`s had some things that are still pretty murky.
JONES: Romney`s task could be bigger.
ALTERMAN: I think for Romney, there is a broad challenge, and that is how do you drill down into specific policies? The Republican Party hasn`t really figured out what a Republican foreign policy looks like after the Bush administration. I think Romney has been uneager to really delve into that.
JONES: Still, while important to many voters, foreign policy ranks far below the economy.
RYAN LIZZA, "THE NEW YORKER": If you are Mitt Romney, every second you are talking about foreign policy is wasted, which might mean that Romney tries to break out of that and tries to bring home some of the foreign policy issues to domestic economic issues.
JONES: With time running out, this is their last chance to make their case to millions of voters in a single night. Athena Jones, CNN, Washington.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Today`s "Shoutout" goes out to Mrs. Scarborough`s "Studizens" at Independence Middle School in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
The Rangers, Kings, Bruins and Jets all play in what professional sports league? Here we go, is it the NBA, MLB, NFL or NHL? You`ve got three seconds, go!
The only place you`ll find all four of those teams is the National Hockey League. That`s your answer and that`s your "Shoutout."
AZUZ: The thing is, you won`t see any of those teams on the ice any time soon. The National Hockey League season was supposed to start in October, 11th. The league already canceled its schedule through October 24th, and on Friday it extended that through November 1st. The issue is that the NHL has locked out its players. The two sides are trying to negotiate a new contract for how they split up the money that the league makes. So far, though, they haven`t been able to make a deal. 135 games were scheduled between October 11th and November, 1st. The last time the NHL had a lockout was in 2004, and that year it was the entire season that ended up being canceled.
We think you are going to get a kick out of this next video, but we`ve got to set the scene for you. High school football game in Spokane, Washington, two seconds left, team was down by three, coach sends in a kicker to try a field goal. No pressure, right? Now, try this: it`s a 67 yard attempt. The kick is up, but it`s got a long way to go. Watch this.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Wow!
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: He mega kicked.
AZUZ: Yes, he did. It`s good. 67 yards by a high school senior. The NFL record is 63 yards. The kick sent the game in overtime, and the team would go on to win by a touchdown.
And before we go, we are heading to a mountain top in China, but that`s just a jumping off point for this story. It`s an international wing suit flying competition. What`s a wing suit? That thing. It uses extra material between the arms and legs to help with flight. The competitors had to fly a certain path through a valley before popping open their parachutes. Fastest time to complete the course wins. Though flying without an airplane might seem kind of crazy, those guys probably don`t spend time nervously winging their hands about it. It suits them just fine. It`s time for us to fly away on a wing and a prayer, but CNN STUDENT NEWS will be back tomorrow with your debate coverage. I`m Carl Azuz. See you soon.

【Euro Crisis Fuels Pro-Independence Movements】
Scotland already has its own parliament in Edinburgh. The ruling Scottish National Party wants to break away entirely from the United Kingdom.
First Minister Alex Salmond has secured a referendum on Scotland’s future - to be held in 2014.
“I believe we’ll win it by setting out a positive vision for a better future for our country, both economically and crucially also socially,” said Salmond.
Salmond said an independent Scotland would rely on an energy economy, becoming the "Saudi Arabia of renewable energy."
But David Maddox, London correspondent for the Scotsman newspaper, said that's debatable.
"The problem with North Sea oil and gas is that the amount of tax collected is extremely volatile. So you can’t really judge your future revenues on it. And also it’s probably only got 30 years left,” said Maddox.
The referendum will be held on the 700th anniversary of the Battle of Bannockburn, when Scottish forces routed the English army. But polls show just 30 percent of Scots support independence.
“The argument the SNP used was to have Scotland as an independent country within the European Union. Their view was that they’d eventually join the euro. Now because of what’s happened with the euro, nobody really wants to join the euro at all,” said Maddox.
The Scottish referendum has helped to energize independence movements elsewhere, like in the Spanish region of Catalonia. Madrid has blocked a referendum - but more than half of Catalans say they want to break away.
“We need a date, too, for our referendum. The sooner the better,” said Barcelona resident Ramon Mora.
In Belgium, the separatist New Flemish Alliance won several local elections this month. Voters say it’s about the economy.
“It could be the end of Belgium, yes, it’s always possible. In my opinion, things cannot go on any longer like this with the French-speaking southern part of Belgium. It costs us a lot of money,” said Antwerp resident Francois Verswjvel.
James Ker-Lindsay of the London School of Economics said that in many cases the economic crisis has fueled long-existing grievances and independence movements.
“But in terms of viability, to my mind absolutely no question at all, an independent Scotland, an independent Flanders and an independent Catalonia are quite clearly viable entities,” said Ker-Lindsay.
Ker-Lindsay fears the wave of separatism could reach more volatile regions like the Balkans.
“What happens if you then start talking about Republika Srpska in Bosnia for example, northern Kosovo, problems in Macedonia? These are areas where there is a lot of concern about it,” said Ker-Lindsay.
Pro-independence parties across Europe will be watching the Scottish referendum closely to see if this is the birth of Europe’s newest nation-state.
