CARL AZUZ, CNN ANCHOR: Some significant events happened on December 10th. 143 years ago Wyoming gave women the right vote. 114 years ago the Spanish-American war ended, 111 years ago the first Nobel Prizes were awarded and about 15 seconds ago you started watching CNN STUDENT NEWS.
12月10日发生了一些重大事件：143年前，怀俄明州给予女性投票权；114年前，美西战争结束；111年前，第一个诺贝尔奖被授予；大约15秒前你开始观看CNN学生新闻。
Our first story on this Monday edition of our show: every 48 minutes someone in the U.S dies in a car wreck that involved a driver who is either drunk or in some way alcohol-impaired. It works out to more than 10,000 deaths every year. Police say Jerry Brown Jr. is one of them. He was the linebacker on the Dallas Cowboys practice squad who was killed in a car crash early Saturday morning. Brown was a passenger. Police say the car he was in hit a curb, flipped and caught on fire. Officers believe alcohol was a contributing factor in the crash. Cowboys nose tackle Josh Brent was behind the wheel. He`s been arrested on suspicion of intoxication- manslaughter. Brent and Brown were teammates in college, too. Brent pleaded guilty to a DUI charge in 2009 while he was in school. The charge he is facing now could lead to a $10,000 fine and a potential prison sentence of two to 20 years.
周一这期节目首先报道的是：在美国，每48分钟就有人死于与醉酒或某种酒精引发受损有关的车祸，每年造成的死亡人数超过10,000人。警察称Jerry Brown Jr就是其中之一，他是达拉斯牛仔队训练小组的后卫，在上周六早晨死于一车祸中。Brown是名乘客。警方表示汽车蹭到了路沿，而后翻转并燃起大火。官员表示酒精是这起事故的罪魁祸首。牛仔队尖峰Josh Brent要对此事件负责，他涉嫌中毒——过失杀人罪。Brent和Brown在大学期间就是同学。2009年在校期间，Brent就因醉驾指控认过罪。目前他面临10,000美元的罚款并可能被监禁2到20年。
Every month the U.S government reports on the national unemployment rate and the number of jobs added or lost. For November, 146,000 jobs added. Unemployment at 7.7 percent. That`s a drop from the month before. And it`s the lowest the unemployment rate has been in nearly four years. These numbers can be a little tricky. The unemployment rate only counts people actively looking for a job. Experts say that`s the main reason the rate went down, is because some people just gave up and stopped looking. The big number to keep in mind - 12 million. That`s how many Americans were counted as unemployed in November.
每月美国政府都会对全国失业率和增加或减少的工作岗位做一个报告。11月新增146,000工作岗位，失业率7.7%，与上月相比有所下降，这也是近四年以来最低的失业率。但这些数据可能有些不靠谱，因为在统计失业率时只计算那些积极找工作的人。专家表示失业率下降的主要原因是一些人已经放弃了，不再去找工作了。巨大的数据仍记于心--1200万，这是11月美国统计的失业人数。
The state legislature in Michigan is getting ready to vote on a right to work law. A big part of this story has to do with labor unions. Right to work laws say that workers don`t have to join unions or pay union dues. People who support these laws say they can make a state more attractive to businesses and can bring in more money for the state economy. Critics of the laws say that they make unions weaker and can keep wages lower for workers. On this map, the states in blue have a right to work law. There are 23 of those, including Indiana, which just passed its legislation this year. Poppy Harlow got the perspective from both sides of the debate over the possibility of a right to work law in Michigan.
密西根州立法机构正准备为劳动法权利投票，这很大一部分与工会有关。劳动权利法律规定，工人可以不一定要加入工会或支付会费。支持这些法律的人士表示这样可以吸引更多的商业并为本州的经济提供更多的资金。批评劳动权利法的人士表示，这样导致工会变弱并可能使得工人的工资更低。在这张图上，蓝色区域表示具有劳动权利法律的州。包括印第安纳州在内的23个这样的州今年刚刚通过了这项立法。Poppy Harlow权衡双方争论决定在密歇根实行这些劳动权利法的可能性。
POPPY HARLOW, CNN CORRESPONDENT: A labor representative told me this legislation is anti-worker, saying that it gives workers less of a voice. What do you say to that?
CNN记者Poppy Harlow：一名劳工代表告诉我这项立法是反工人的，说它更难听到工人的声音了。元芳，你怎么看?
GOV. RICK SNYDER (R ), MICHIGAN: That`s backward. This is about being pro-worker. Again, giving workers the choice, the freedom to choose - that`s fundamental.
密歇根州州长Rick Snyder：那种说法是落后的，这项立法是支持工人的。它再一次给予工人选择，自由的选择——那就是根本的。
JON HOADLEY, WORKING MICHIGAN COALITION CAMPAIGN MANAGER: So, Governor Snyder`s legislation is anti-worker, it`s going to end up, you know, being a devastating blow to the middle class here.
密歇根州联合竞选经理Jon Hoadley：所以州长Snyder的立法是反工人，这将结束，你知道这对本地的中产阶级将是个毁灭性的打击。
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Is this legit? The flu virus is pathogenic. Absolutely. Being pathogenic means that the virus causes or can cause disease.
不明身份的女士：流感病毒是病原性的，这种说话对吗？绝对地。成为病原意味着这种病毒会导致或可能导致疾病。
AZUZ: And there`s a lot of that going around this year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For the first time in almost a decade, the CDC says flu season has arrived early. The region hardest hit so far has been the Southern U.S. You can see how flu activity is spreading on this map, and you`ll notice the first states to turn red are in the south. The CDC recommends that people protect themselves by getting a flu shot, a vaccine that helps you avoid catching the flu. But how effective is the vaccine and how can you get flu in the first place? Those are a couple of questions I recently asked CNN`s Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
AZUZ:根据美国疾病控制和预防中心调查，今年有许多那样的情况。近十年CDC首次表示流感季节已经提前到来。目前美国南部已经成了受灾最严重的地区。从这张地图上，你可以看到流感活动如何传播，你将注意到首批转为红色的州发生在南部。美国疾病控制和预防中心建议人们通过注射流感疫苗保护自己，这种疫苗可以帮助你感染流感。但疫苗到底有多大效用，首先怎样会感染到病毒呢？这是我最近向Sanjay Gupta医生问的几个问题。
AZUZ: All right, you know, students -they are touching the same desks, the same door knobs, the same books. How easily communicated is the flu through touch?
AZUZ：好吧，你知道学生们接触同样的桌子，同样的把手，同样的书。通过触摸传染流感到底有多容易？
DR. SANJAY GUPTA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Not as easily communicated as if you have direct contact with somebody, but it still can be. There are some, you know, bacteria out there that they basically when they hit the air, they die. With the flu virus, oftentimes, it can live on a surface for a period of time. So, doorknobs, for example, a big area of concern. Desks, as you mentioned. Areas where people touch their hands a lot. You got - I mean these areas need to be cleaned.
CNN记者Dr. Sanjay Gupta：没有直接和人接触那么容易传染，但还是会传染的。你知道，有些病菌暴露在空气种，它们基本上一遇到空气就会死亡。但流感病毒，通常情况下能在一个表面上生存一段时间。因此，例如把手，要特别注意的地方。像你提到的桌子。人们用手接触很多的地方。你知道，我的意思是这些地方需要清洗。
AZUZ: All right. Is it simple as washing your hands to get the virus off of them?
AZUZ：好的。简单到只要清洗手就能摆除病毒吗？
GUPTA: Yeah, you know, it sounds almost ridiculously simple, when you put it like that. But, yeah, I mean washing your hands can basically protect you from not only transmitting it to yourself, touching your hand to your own nose, but also, you know, giving it to somebody else. It goes a long way toward doing that and the more times you wash your hands is better.
Gupta:是的，你知道，当你这样做的时候听起来似乎简单的可笑，但是，是的，我的意思是说洗手基本上不仅可以保护你自己免于传染，把你的手放在自己的鼻子上，而且，你知道，传染给别人。那样做有很大的作用，而且洗的次数越多越好。
AZUZ: All right, let`s say you and I are in journalism class, and you start sneezing and saying you are not feeling well. I`m sitting right next to you. How concerned do I need to be?
AZUZ：好的，如果说我和你都是新闻类工作者，你开始打喷嚏和说你感觉不舒服。我坐在你旁边，我需要如何防患?
GUPTA: The likelihood, still, even in the situation like that, is still low, thankfully, that you are going to get the flu. But, you know, it`s higher than if you hadn`t been exposed at all. So, you know, this is a message I think certainly for people who are sick and are potentially contagious to stay home and that`s a big thing. And also, for people, who are in those situations, to make sure they are, again, washing their hands often.
GUPTA：即使在这样的情况，谢天谢地，你得流感的可能性仍然很低。但是，你知道，如果你一直都不出门的话感染的概率会更高。所以，你知道，我想这肯定对那些生病的人传达了一个信息，呆在家里有潜在的传染性，这很关键。同样，对于在那些场合的人们，同样要确保他们经常洗手。
AZUZ: With what symptoms should a student stay home? Like you wake up, you are not feeling well. At what point should you say I`m not going to school?
AZUZ：什么症状发生时学生应该呆在家里？就像你醒来，感觉不舒服。什么程度时你应该说我不去学校了?
GUPTA: Yeah, you know fever is going to be one of the things that`s going to be a hallmark, and usually when you talk about a fever above 101.3, 101.4, that area, that`s really a true fever. If you have some of the classic symptoms including sore throat, but also specifically muscle aches or something that distinguishes flu from a regular cold. You should probably stay home with both, that`s when you can tell the difference.
GUPTA:是的，你知道发烧将是感冒的特点，通常情况下当你的谈到温度高于101.3,101.4的范围，那真的是在发烧。如果你有一些典型的症状，包括喉咙痛，还有特别的肌肉疼痛或一些区分普通冷和流感的症状。如果发生了你可以区分的两项，你可能应该呆在家里。
AZUZ: How effective is a flu shot?
AZUZ：注射流感疫苗的作用有多大？
GUPTA: Flu shots can be very effective, you know, there`s numbers that vary every year, but it`s in the 70 to 80 percent range, and it`s not a 100 percent, but it is - it is pretty good and really the best thing that we have.
GUPTA：注射流感疫苗非常有效，你知道，每年的数字都在变化，但在70年到80%之间，并不是100%，但这——这相当不错了，对我们来说真是最好的事。
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: See if you can I.D. me. I`m an award that was first given out in the 1930s, I`m named for a former director of New York`s Downtown Athletic Club. I`m considered the most prestigious award in college football.
未知身份的女士：看看你能否认出我来。我是一个奖项，在20世纪30年代第一次颁发，我是以前纽约市中心运动俱乐部主任来命名。我被认为是大学足球最有声望的奖项。
I`m the Heisman Trophy. And some of my most recent winners include Tim Tebow, Cam Newton and Robert Griffin III.
我就是海斯曼杯。最近的获奖者包括Tim Tebow，Cam Newton和Robert Griffin III。
AZUZ: Tebow won the Heisman as a sophomore. Newton and Griffin were both juniors, and a lot of seniors have won it over the years. Now, if we were doing the story last Friday, we would have said that no freshman had ever won the Heisman Trophy. Then, this guy came along. Johnny Manziel, quarterback for Texas A&M University and this year`s Heisman Trophy winner. He is the first freshman ever to win the award. Manziel, whose nickname Johnny Football, took home the trophy Saturday night. He passed and ran for a combined 43 touchdowns this season and accounted for 4600 yards of total offense. That is the southeastern conference record.
AZUZ：Tebow在二年级获得海斯曼杯奖。Newton和Griffin都是在三年级时获得，许多四年级学生历年都获得过。现在，如果上周五我们谈到这件事，我们会说没有新生曾经赢得过海斯曼奖杯。然后，这个家伙来了。德克萨斯A&M大学四分卫Johnny Manziel，今年海斯曼奖杯的得主，有史以来第一个赢该奖项的新生。Manziel，绰号“约翰尼足球"周六晚上将奖杯抱回了家。本赛季他总共有43次触地得分，总进攻达4600次。这是东南会议的记录。
Next up, the python challenge. It runs January 12th through February 10th in Florida`s Everglades National Park. Grand Prize is $1500. All you`ve got to do is find these snakes and kill them. Florida wildlife officials say they`re turning to the public for help because they don`t have a good strategy for the python problem. The contest, which is real, involves an online safety training course. Organizers suggest some human ways to deal with the snakes. They also say the contest isn`t just about killing snakes, they also want to educate people on how the python is affecting Florida. Now, John Zarrella explains exactly what kinds of problems these snakes are causing, and how they got there in the first place.
接下来，巨蟒挑战。从1月12日到2月10日在佛罗里达大沼泽地国家公园，大奖是1500美元。所有你要做的就是找到这些蛇并杀死他们。佛罗里达州野生动物官员表示，他们正在向公众求助，因为他们没有一个好的策略对付蟒蛇。这场比赛是真实的，包括一个在线安全培训课程。组织者提出一些人类的方法对付蛇。他们还说，比赛不仅仅是杀死蛇,他们也想要教育人们蟒蛇正如何影响佛罗里达。现在，约翰·萨雷拉解释这些蛇到底导致了什么类型的问题，以及他们如何在第一时间到达那里。
JOHN ZARELLA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: In his laboratory Skip Snow keeps in plastic bags what you could call "the kill:" alligator claws, the hoof of a deer, a great blue heron, all found in the stomachs of captured Burmese python.
CNN记者John:在Skip Snow的实验室里放在塑料袋里的你可以称为"被杀死的受害者":鳄鱼爪，一只鹿的蹄子，一只大蓝鹭，所有的这些事在捕获到的巨蟒的胃中发现。
SKIP SNOW, EVERGLADES NATL. PARK BIOLOGIST: And it may take us a long time, years, if not decades, before we fully understand what the nature of the impacts of Burmese pythons are in the south Florida.
大沼泽国家公园生物学家Skip Snow：这可能需要我们很长的时间，数年，如果不是数十年的话，我们才能完全了解缅甸蟒蛇南佛罗里达造成的影响。
ZARRELLA: What`s already clear is that some Everglade species are disappearing, and disappearing quickly.
ZARRELLA：我们知道的事，一些一些湿地物种正在消失，消失的很快。
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Raccoons were such a problem that we actually had to put a policy in place to try to manage them.
不明身份的女士:浣熊面临这样的一个问题，我们确实要找到方法来对付它们。
ZARRELLA: No policy needed now. A study shows pythons, which simply aren`t supposed to be here, are likely responsible for nearly wiping out several creatures. There may be as many as 100,000 pythons slithering through the Glades. How did they get here? Bought as pets, when they got too big, owners got rid of them.
ZARRELLA：但现在没有对策可循。一项研究表明本不应该在这里出现的蟒蛇，可能已经造成几种生物几乎完全消失。在这个林间空地可能有多达100000条蟒蛇。他们是怎么到这里来的？作为宠物买来的，当他们长大时购买者在这里将它们放生。
No one would have guessed just a decade ago, snakes in this river of grass might upset the balance of nature here forever. John Zarrella, CNN, Everglades National Park.
没有人会想到仅仅十年前，在这个青草的河流蛇可能会永久性的破坏大自然的平衡。CNN，沼泽地国家公园。
AZUZ: We are going to be honest: today`s Before We Go segment may not pass the sniff test, but it depends on how hungry you are. That`s a bottle of perfume, and yes, you are reading that right - it`s made by Pizza Hut. Smells like it, too, supposedly. Piquant pepperoni, malodorous mushroom. Mostly just smells like a dab of dough. The company is making a limited supply, free bottles for around 100 people. If they decided to make more, they`ll probably just manufacture it down at the old factory. You may think oh, the pizza sounds odious, or you may think this perfume idea makes sense -- who knows for sure. If it becomes a big seller, everyone`s is going to want a piece of that pie. For CNN STUDENT NEWS, I`m Carl Azuz, have a great day.

大胆猜测下届美国总统花落谁家，铁娘子希拉里？！
【New poll shows strong support for Clinton 2016 WH run】
大胆猜测美国下届总统花落谁家，铁娘子希拉里？！
She's still on the job as Secretary of State but new polls suggest that Americans would support Hillary Clinton if she runs for the White House in 2016. So far she has denied any plans to do so - but many Washington insiders are predicting she will. It started with an article in the New Yorker, which boldly declared "Hillary is Running." A new Washington Post-ABC News poll shows that 57% of all Americans would vote for her. Sixty-six percent of women and 49% of men polled said they would back her. It was a sentiment echoed by tourists visiting Washington D.C..
她还在担任美国国务卿一职，但新的民调显示，如果希拉里·克林顿参加2016年白宫竞选，美国人会给予支持。迄今为止，她一直否认任何这样的计划——但许多华盛顿内部人士预测她会（竞选总统）。这开始于在《纽约客》的一篇文章，它大胆地宣布“希拉里正在竞选”。华盛顿邮报和美国广播公司最新的民意调查显示，57%的美国人会投票给她。百分之66的女性和49%的男性调查者表示他们会支持她。这是在华盛顿特区游客的反应。
Alexis Skinner-Turner, Tourist, Saying: "I think it's about time a woman took charge and ran the world the way it's supposed to. I don't think it's too early to tell. There's always speculation, but speculation is always a good thing."
游客亚历克西斯斯金纳特纳说:“我认为是时候一个女人来负责，让世界以应该的方式运行，我不认为这是为时过早。总是有猜测，但猜测始终是一件好事。”
Donna Seely, Nurse From Tennessee Saying: "She's earned and gained the trust of many other leaders in the world. The United States can no longer be in isolation. We have to participate in the entire world and I think she has an 'in' with many other - those leaders, which will benefit the citizens here in the United States."
来自田纳西州的护士唐纳·希利说:“她赢得了世界上许多其他领导人的信任。美国可以不再可能是孤立的。我们必须参与整个世界种，我想她和许多其他——这些领导人有交往，这将有利于美国的公民。”
Steve Emmons, Virginia Resident, Saying : "I think it's well time. I think we've now had our first African-American President, which is a big step, and I think now, sure, we need a woman. I mean, I've long thought that we need a lot more women in politics and in national roles as well as in corporations. They definitely bring a different take to things."
维吉尼亚州的居民史蒂夫·埃蒙斯说：“我认为这是个好时候，我认为我们现在已经有了我们的第一位非洲裔总统，这是一个重要的一步，我认为现在，当然，我们需要一个女领导人。我的意思是，我一直认为我们需要更多的妇女在政治、国家以及企业中参与角色。他们肯定给事情带来不一样的东西。”
LOUIS EMMONS, VIRGINIA RESIDENT, SAYING : "I think she's got a lot of skill and a good experience doing the Secretary of State job as she's done, traveling probably more than any other Secretary of State has ever traveled. I think she's got a good foundation and I would like to see a strong, intelligent, informed and experienced woman run for president."
维吉尼亚州的居民路易斯·埃蒙斯说：“我认为在担任国务卿工作中，她有很多技巧和良好的经验，她可能比以往任何国务卿坐过的地方要多。我认为她有一个良好的基础，我希望看到一个强大、聪明、通知和经验丰富的女人竞选总统。”
Clinton lost to President Barack Obama in the 2008 Democratic primary, but has remained in the public eye as the United States' top diplomat. It's a position that has also given many a chance to see a different side of the famously serious Clinton. While she has given no public indications about another White House run, many will be watching her next step.
在2008年的民主党初选，克林顿输给了美国总统巴拉克·奥巴马，但在公众眼中她仍然是美国的最高外交官。这也是一个场合，同样给了许多机会从不同的一面看到这位知名而又严肃的希拉里·克林顿。虽然她没有公开表明在竞选白宫，但许多人将关注她接下来的打算。

中国掀起反腐热潮
【Anti-corruption storm sweeps across China】中国掀起反腐热潮
The United Nations has designated December 9th the International Anti-corruption Day.... and China’s recent crackdown on corruption has been drawing attention, both at home and abroad. A number of government and party officials have been placed under investigation for misconduct within the past month, as the new CPC leadership looks to clear-out corruption from public office.
An anti-corruption storm is sweeping across China..
That’s how local media are describing recent high-profile efforts to rid the government of corrupt officials.
Less than a month after the leadership transition of China’s Communist Party, nine government and party officials have been put under investigation by disciplinary authorities. Many say the recent cases underscore how seriously China’s new leadership is taking the problem.
Xi Jinping, General Secretary of CPC Central Committee, said, "In the new environment, our Party faces many challenges and there are many pressing problems within the Party that need to be resolved. The problems among our Party members and cadres, of corruption, taking bribes, being out of touch with the people, undue emphasis on formalities and bureaucracy, must be addressed with great effort."
Soon after being elected the Party’s general secretary, Xi Jinping warned that the problem could even be a danger to the party and to the state, if allowed to continue unchecked.
The message is clear. The challenge is enforcement.
Ma Huaide, Vice President of China Univ. of Political Science & Law, said, "The message from the top is that in further combating corruption, the CPC will put more emphasis on system building to stop corruption at source; Secondly, loopholes in existing laws and regulations will be closed; And thirdly, a long-term strategy will be established, rather than relying on sporadic action."
The world’s second largest economy with the world’s biggest population, is waging an all-out war against wrongdoing in public office.
China’s growing number of micro-bloggers are becoming a force to be reckoned with, in exposing abuses of power.
But the war on corruption is far from over.
China’s anti-corruption campaign is vital for building a clean government and boosting public confidence. Experts say punishment alone won’t get to the root of the problem. What’s really needed are more foundamental reforms, regulations and grassroots supervision.
