    亚洲文明对话大会

    Conference on Dialogue of Asian Civilizations

Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday attended the opening ceremony of the Conference on Dialogue of Asian Civilizations in Beijing and delivered a keynote speech.

515日,国家主席习近平出席亚洲文明对话大会开幕式,并发表主旨演讲。

He called for efforts to jointly create a brighter future for civilizations of Asia and the world.

他呼吁大家共同创造亚洲文明和世界文明的美好未来。

The Chinese president raised a four-point proposal to consolidate the "cultural foundation" of jointly building a community with a shared future for Asia and humanity: treating each other with respect and as equals; appreciating the beauty of all civilizations; adhering to openness, inclusiveness, mutual learning; and keeping pace with the times.

为夯实共建亚洲命运共同体、人类命运共同体的人文基础,习近平提出四点主张:坚持相互尊重、平等相待;坚持美人之美、美美与共;坚持开放包容、互学互鉴;坚持与时俱进、创新发展。

Foreign guests including Cambodian King Norodom Sihamoni, Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos, Singaporean President Halimah Yacob, Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay, spoke at the opening ceremony respectively.

柬埔寨国王西哈莫尼、希腊总统帕夫洛普洛斯、新加坡总统哈莉玛、斯里兰卡总统西里塞纳、亚美尼亚总理帕希尼扬、联合国教科文组织总干事阿祖莱等外宾也在开幕式上致辞。

They stressed the need to respect the differences, uniqueness and diversity of civilizations, saying that the so-called clash of civilizations argument is a huge mistake which will damage or even cut off the bridge for civilization exchanges.

他们表示,要尊重文明的差异性、独立性和多样性,所谓“文明冲突论”十分错误,将破坏甚至切断文明沟通的桥梁。

The week-long event includes an opening ceremony, panel discussions, an Asian culture carnival and Asian Civilization Week involving more than 110 activities to showcase the diversity and charm of Asian civilizations.

为期一周的亚洲文明对话大会包括开幕式、平行分论坛、亚洲文化嘉年华、亚洲文明周四大板块共110余场活动,展示亚洲文明的多样性和魅力。

I.M. Pei (PAY), the versatile, globe-trotting architect who revived the Louvre with a giant glass pyramid and captured the spirit of rebellion at the multi-shaped Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, has died at age 102.

贝聿铭逝世,享年102岁。贝聿铭是一位多才多艺的建筑师,足迹遍及全球。他曾用一座巨大的玻璃金字塔使卢浮宫重获生机,也曾在不拘一格的摇滚名人堂博物馆的设计中捕捉到了反叛精神。

Pei's death was confirmed Thursday by Marc Diamond, a spokesman for the architect's New York firm, Pei Cobb Freed & Partners.

516日,纽约贝聿铭建筑事务所的发言人马克·戴蒙德证实了贝聿铭逝世的消息。

Pei's works ranged from the trapezoidal addition to the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., to the chiseled towers of the National Center of Atmospheric Research that blend in with the reddish mountains in Boulder, Colorado.

贝聿铭的作品有位于华盛顿、在梯形场地上打造的美国国家美术馆东馆,也有与科罗拉多博尔德红色山脉融为一体的美国国家大气研究中心轮廓分明的塔型建筑。

His buildings added elegance to landscapes worldwide with their powerful geometric shapes and grand spaces. Among them are the striking steel and glass Bank of China skyscraper in Hong Kong and the Fragrant Hill Hotel near Beijing.

他的建筑以大胆的几何形状和宏大的空间为世界各地的景观增添了优雅之风,其中包括引人注目的香港中银大厦和北京香山饭店。

His work spanned decades, starting in the late 1940s and continuing through the new millennium. Two of his last major projects, the Museum of Islamic Art, located on an artificial island just off the waterfront in Doha, Qatar, and the Macau Science Center, in China, opened in 2008 and 2009.

贝聿铭的建筑生涯横跨几十年,从20世纪40年代末开始,一直持续到千禧年。他最后的两个主要项目,一个是卡塔尔多哈海滨大道人工岛上的伊斯兰艺术博物馆,另一个是中国的澳门科学馆,分别于2008年和2009年开放。

Pei painstakingly researched each project, studying its use and relating it to the environment.

贝聿铭苦心钻研每一个项目,研究其用途,并与环境相连。

    反堕胎法

    anti-abortion law

640_webp (2).jpg

Alabama's Republican governor, Kay Ivey, signed a bill on Wednesday that bans abortion even in cases of rape and incest.

当地时间515,美国阿拉巴马州共和党州长凯伊·艾维签署通过法案,禁止女性堕胎,即使是强奸或者乱伦的受害者。

"Today, I signed into law the Alabama Human Life Protection Act, a bill that was approved by overwhelming majorities in both chambers of the Legislature," Ivey said in a statement. "To the bill's many supporters, this legislation stands as a powerful testament to Alabamians' deeply held belief that every life is precious and that every life is a sacred gift from God."

“今天,我签署通过了《阿拉巴马州人身保护法案》,该法案得到了参众两院绝大多数议员的批准,”艾维在一份声明中说,“对该法案的许多支持者来说,这项立法有力地证明了阿拉巴马人深深的信念,即每个生命都是宝贵的,每个生命都是上帝赐予的神圣礼物。”

The law in Alabama, where Republicans control the Senate and House, goes further. It bans abortions at any time, unless the mother's health is in danger. Those performing abortions would be committing a felony, punishable by 10 to 99 years in prison. A woman who receives an abortion would not be held criminally liable.

阿拉巴马州的参众两院由共和党领导,这项法案在此前的基础上作了更进一步规定,禁止女性在怀孕的任何阶段堕胎,除非怀孕或生产严重威胁到孕妇的健康。如果有医生帮助妇女堕胎,将被处以重罪,或面临1099年监禁。接受堕胎的妇女不承担刑事责任。

Legislation to restrict abortion rights has been introduced this year in 16 states, four of whose governors have signed bills banning abortion if an embryonic heartbeat can be detected.

今年美国有16个州出台了限制堕胎权的立法,其中4个州的州长签署了禁止堕胎的法案,规定一旦能够探测到胎心就不得堕胎。
