感人一幕 杂货店一男子救窒息女孩
An amazing rescue at a grocery store in Perth Australia is caught on closed circuit cameras. A woman rushes to the checkout counter with her 2 year old daughter- she's stopped breathing. Thinking she's choking, a man in a gray tank top tries to help. He turns her upside down and pats her on the back. By now the girls' father, wearing red, rushes into the store in a panic. The man in gray then clears off the counter, lays the girl down and begins giving her mouth to mouth. Finally- she's breathing. The girls father and the man who saved her share a hug in relief.

Dozens killed in Brazil mudslides
巴西泥石流致数十人遇难
At least 27 people are dead following a string of landslides in the mountains of Brazil's Rio de Janeiro State. Hundreds of homes have been destroyed in the mudslides, which were brought on by heavy rains. Seventeen inches of rain fell here in just 24 hours - that's almost double the average for March. Rescue workers have been working around the clock, searching for survivors and bodies. The risks of avalanches in areas like this are particularly high - and authorities have vowed to take "more drastic" measures to stop people from building homes in dangerous areas. Some residents, too, have decided to pack up and leave, saying they no longer wish to put their families at risk. Floods and landslides killed about 1,000 people in the region in 2011, in Brazil's worst natural disaster on record. Projects promised by local authorities since then haven't materialized, though warning sirens installed in the region have helped to reduce the number of deaths this year.
巴西里约热内卢山区发生的一系列山体滑坡至少已造成27人死亡 。大雨带来的泥石流已造成数以百计的房屋被毁 。24小时的降雨带来了17英寸的雨量——这几乎是3月平均降雨量的两倍 。救援人员正夜以继日地寻找幸存者和遇难者 。类似这样的地区特别容易发生山崩,当局已经誓言要采取“更有力的”措施阻止人们在危险地区建房子 。一些居民也已经决定整理东西离开,他们表示不再希望让自己家庭面临风险 。2011年,洪水和山体滑坡在该地区夺去了约1000人的生命,创造了巴西历史上最严重的自然灾害 。自那时起,尽管该地区已经安装了警报器并使今年死亡的人数有所减少,但当时地方当局承诺建立的项目还没有落实 。
Obama warns Syria on chemical weapons
奥巴马警告叙利亚使用化学武器
On day one of his trip to the Middle East, U.S. President Barack Obama met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem -- offering tough talk on a wide range of regional issues. At a joint news conference, Obama said the U.S. was investigating alleged chemical weapons use Syria, and maintained he would hold the Assad regime accountable.
美国总统奥巴马中东之行的第一天在耶路撒冷会见了以色列总理内塔尼亚胡——就广泛的区域问题发表了强硬的讲话 。在一次联合新闻发布会上,奥巴马称美国正在调查指控的叙利亚化使用学武器,并坚称要阿萨德政权负责 。
U.S. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, SAYING: "We have been clear that the use of chemical weapons against the Syrian people would be a serious and tragic mistake." On Iran, Obama said diplomacy is the first option, but added:"All options are on the table. We will do what is necessary to prevent Iran from getting the world's worst weapons." Netanyahu -- meanwhile -- hinted at a possible go-it-alone plan to attack Iran's nuclear program.
美国总统奥巴马说:“我们很清楚,使用化学武器袭击叙利亚人民将是一个严重和悲剧性的错误 。”在伊朗问题上,奥巴马表示外交是第一选择,但他补充道:"所有的选择都摆在桌面上了 。我们将采取必要的措施防止伊朗获得世界上最危险的武器 。”与此同时,内塔尼亚胡暗示可能会采取单独计划袭击伊朗的核项目 。
ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU, SAYING: "That is why you appreciate that Israel can never cede the right to defend ourselves to others - even to the greatest of our friends." Beyond the strong rhetoric, the two leaders had a moment of brevity earlier in the day- joking about a "red line" with Iran while visiting the Iron Dome defense battery in Tel Aviv.
以色列总理内塔尼亚胡说:“这就是你的欣赏之处,以色列永远不会放弃权捍卫自己的权利,无论是对他人,还是对我们最要好的朋友 。”在这场激烈的言论之外,早些时候两位领导人在特拉维夫参观“铁穹”防御系统时有过短暂的交谈,笑谈了给伊朗设置的“红线” 。
U.S. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, SAYING: "He's always talking to be about red lines. So this is all a psychological ploy." ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU, SAYING: "This was minutely planned." Obama and Netanyahu also reiterated a commitment to find a two-state solution between Israelis and Palestinians - and on Thursday, Obama will meet Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah.
美国总统奥巴马:“他总是谈及红线 。所以这都是心理策略 。”以色列总理内塔尼亚胡:“这是精心设计的 。”奥巴马和内塔尼亚胡同样重申,致力于找到解决以色列和巴勒斯坦问题的两国方案 。周四,奥巴马将在拉姆安拉会见巴勒斯坦主席马哈茂德·阿巴斯 。

CNN学生新闻:奥巴马中东之行首访以色列
President Obama Visits Israel
奥巴马中东之行首访以色列
Aired March 21
UNIDENTIFIED CHILDREN: Welcome to CNN STUDENT NEWS from Churchill High School.
CARL AZUZ, CNN ANCHOR: From that I-Report in Sartell, Minnesota, we`re heading to the Middle East as we kick off today`s show. President Obama is on the four day trip to the region. And it started yesterday in Israel. That`s where he met with Israelis president Shimon Peres. Now, one interesting point here, in Israel`s government the president is mostly a ceremonial position. The person who runs the country`s government is the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. President Obama also met with him yesterday. Leaders talked about some of the issues they both face: like how to address Iran`s controversial nuclear program. Another issue on the agenda for this trip: the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. Today, President Obama is scheduled to visit the West Bank, a Palestinian territory. He`s set to meet Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinian Authority. So, he is talking to leaders on both sides of this conflict. Tomorrow, after a few other stops in Israel, the president will head to Jordan. There, he`s scheduled to do a news conference with Jordan`s King Abdullah. Then he heads back to the U.S from Jordan on Saturday. So, why is the president making this trip? Part of his job is diplomacy to represent the United States to the world, that`s why he meets other world leaders. Plus, the U.S. And Israel are close allies, so visiting that country reinforces the strength of that relationship.
Quick side note to this trip. Yesterday, we told you about the Beast, the U.S. President`s personal limousine. It went to Israel ahead of President Obama, so it could be there when he landed. Unfortunately, the Best went bust. It wouldn`t start, had to be towed away. An official said the driver accidentally filled it up with regular gas instead of what it needs diesel fuel. Oops. Nothing to worry about, though, and the president travels overseas, multiple vehicles are usually along for the ride, so when President Obama landed, the backup Beast was ready to go.
It`s hard to forget someone like Malala Yousafzai. In her home country of Pakistan where fewer than half the women can read and write, Malala worked toward women`s education`s rights, even after she got death threats to stop. She survived a shooting by Afghan terrorists, the 15-year old has been recovering in the United Kingdom where on Tuesday she was once again able to continue her education in school. ITV News` Rupert Evelyn was there.
RUPERT EVELYN, ITV CORRESPONDENT: The education campaigner is herself learning again.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So you will go to school by yourself, OK, you will be independent.
EVELYN: Anxious and escorted by her father, Malala Yousafzai heads towards her first day at a new school, swapping the classroom of Pakistan`s Swat Valley for the private halls of Birmingham`s Edgbaston High School.
MALALA YOUSAFZAI: I think it is the happiest moment that I`m going back to my school and today I, I held (ph) my books, my bag and I would learn, I would talk to my friends, I would talk to my teacher.
EVELYN: It is five month since the Taliban attempted to assassinate Malala. Her life saved in Pakistan, her skull rebuilt in Birmingham. She has defied the odds, and with these images released by her and her family, she defies he enemy`s attempts to silence her.
Her return to school is a symbol of the simple yet powerful message Malala conveys: her campaign for women`s education will not be stopped either by a change of country, or by a bullet.
RUTH WEEKS, HEADMISTRESS, EDGBASTON HIGH SCHOOL: We aim that when she`s in school, she`ll be a normal girl, she`ll follow the normal rules, she`ll be taught along with everyone else. And we will support her.
EVELYN: Her new school motto translates as faithfully, bravely and successfully.
Her new classmates will not have to look far to find someone who encapsulates those characteristics. Rupert Evelyn, ITV News, Birmingham.
AZUZ: It might seem strange to think of someone risking her life for an education. Especially if you`ve heard news reports about other people dropping out of school. What does your education mean to you? Is it a priority, or are you just going through the motions? Talk to us at cnnstudentnews.com, it`s the same site where your teachers can comment on today`s show.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Today`s Shoutout goes out to Mr. Winer`s classes at Okeeheelee Middle School in West Palm Beach Florida. Who`s the author of Frankenstein? You know what to do? Is it Stephen King, Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker or R.L. Stine. You`ve got three seconds, go!
Mary Shelley wrote "Frankenstein" in 1818, nearly a century before the first Frankenstein movie was made. That`s your answer and that`s your Shoutout.
AZUZ: Mary Shelley`s book about a scientist who created a monster influenced pop culture to this day. This is part of our women`s history month coverage. We are looking at women in the arts an their impact on world culture. See if you can guess whom we are talking about: First up, she is a famous actress who`s been nominated for 17 Academy Awards. She recently won an Oscar for her role of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. So who played the Iron Lady? Meryl Streep has won three Oscars in her decades long career. Next up, she was a French fashion designer. She`s been called the Grand Dame of modern women`s fashion. And she`s world famous for her number five fragrance. She is Coco Chanel. And Chanel number five was the first perfume that had a fashion designer`s name on it. We`re bookending this segment with another author, you probably read a series of her books, and she`s still writing, just not about Harry, Hermione and Ron any more. You know this one. J.K. Rowling, seven books about Harry Potter were turned into eight movies. You can find all these artists and more in the resources section of cnnstudentnews.com.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Is this legit?
The words "orchestra" and "philharmonic" are synonyms? It`s true. They both mean a group of musicians who perform together.
AZUZ: Our next story from Rafael Romo is about a youth orchestra in the South American country of Paraguay. The instruments that these musicians use may sound the same as any other orchestra, but when you see what they are playing, it`s very different story. You know the saying, one man`s trash is another man`s treasure. Get ready to meet the landfill harmonic.
RAFAEL ROMO, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Cateura, Paraguay, a town built on top of a landfill were 1500 tons of waist are dumped everyday. The town`s 2500 families are employed by the landfill recyclers, and their children live along the trash.
Favio Chavez is a musician and ecological engineer with an inspired idea. He started teaching the children to play music, but he only had five instruments to lend out. Soon, the orchestra of recycled instruments was born, fashioning instruments was trash. 18-year old Andres Riveros (ph) is a saxophonist with the group.
ANDRES RIVEROS, SAXOPHONIST: The instrument is made of galvanized pipe used in the gutters for houses.
Then this is made with caps, coins and these are keys from doors.
ROMO: Playing in this orchestra ha provided a way out of the landfill for children and a way to help their families.
FAVIOS CHAVEZ, DIRECTOR, ORCHESTRA OF RECYCLED INSTRUMENTS (through translator): We see that they are not changing their own lives, but those of their families, too. We`ve seen cases where the parents with addiction problems have quit taking drugs to go to their kids concert, and in a lot of cases the parents have gone back to finish school because their kids are being seen all over and they think, they are going forward. I want to, too. They are not only changing their lives, but the lives of their families and their community.
ROMO: Myriam Cardozo once dreamed of becoming a musician. When she heard about the program, she signed up her granddaughter right away.
MYRIAM CARDOZO, GRANDMOTHER OF VIOLINIST (through translator): I signed her up and it happened. And now my granddaughter is fulfilling my dream. It makes me so happy, that is why I can die happy.
ROMO: Her granddaughter Ada is now a violinist in the orchestra.
ADA RIOS, VIOLINIST (through translator): The people cannot believe it, they have to see it to believe it. Because they don`t believe it is trash.
I`ve been to three countries, Brazil, Panama and Colombia. And I never thought I`d leave the country.
AZUZ: All right. Stick with us for a last story today, because it`s better than it seems. Driver hits a deer, assumes it`s dead, puts it in his trunk to take home. But when police officers come across the vehicle, and the guy pops the trunk to show them -Wow. Deer looks very much alive. You know what happens when you assume something? You get a live deer popping out of your trunk. Officers say the animated animal was unscathed, and that it took off for the woods. The guy originally planned to make the deer into a meal. Let`s just hope the creature doesn`t come back for retribution against the driver`s family. He`ll go after the guy first and ven his son (ph). If he really wants to be jerky, maybe an antler or uncle, too, Oh, dear. We hoof to go for now, we`ll be back tomorrow with more CNN STUDENT NEWS. See you then.
