The White House says the killing of 16 Afghans by an American soldier on Sunday won't change its strategy or objectives in the country. It said the plan was still for Afghans to take over security operations by 2014. The Afghan parliament has demanded to put the suspect on trial in an Afghan court. From Kabul, here's Quentin Sommerville.
白宫称，上周日美国士兵杀害16名阿富汗人的事件将不会改变其在该国的战略或目标。它称美国的计划仍然是阿富汗要在2014年之前接管安全部署。阿富汗议会曾要求将嫌犯交由阿富汗法庭审判，Quentin Sommerville从喀布尔发回报道。

The identity of the gunman still hasn't been revealed, but more is known. He's in his late 30s and has children of his own. A staff sergeant, he's been in the army 11 years. This is his first tour of Afghanistan, but he served three tours in Iraq. The Pentagon insists he acted alone. Fully armed, he was wearing night-vision goggles as he carried out the killings. He was working with special forces in the area protecting their combat outpost. That, said one officer, would have allowed him to come and go as he pleased. But his motivation for the attacks remains a mystery.
枪手的身份尚未公布，不过我们已经了解很多关于他的情况。他将近40岁了，有自己的孩子，军阶为上士，他已经在军队服役11年了。这是他第一次来阿富汗，但他去伊拉克已经三次了。五角大楼坚称他是单独行动，全副武装，戴着夜视镜行凶杀人。他在特种兵工作，保护当地的前哨战，一位官员说，因此他就可以来去自由。但他的袭击动机至今仍是个谜。

And our work here at the Security Council is just one part of what the international community must do to assist democratic transitions all across the Middle East and North Africa."
“叙利亚人民应和突尼斯人、埃及人、利比亚人和也门人一样，享有同样塑造未来的机会。为帮助整个中东和北非的民主过渡，国际社会必须行动起来，如今我们在安理会的努力只是行动的一部分。”

The head of Brazil's football federation, Ricardo Teixeira, has stepped down. He also resigned from the 2014 World Cup organising committee amid corruption allegations, which he's denied. Here's Alex Capstick.
巴西足协主席Ricardo Teixeir因腐败指控辞职，同时辞掉了在2014年世界杯组委会的职位，他否认了有关指控。Alex Capstick报道。

Ricardo Teixeira has been at the helm of Brazilian football, the CBF, for the past 23 years. But his stint in charge of the most successful nation in World Cup history has often been contentious. Over the past few years, he's been forced to defend himself amid allegations of corruption both in his role as president of the CBF and as a senior member of Fifa's ruling executive committee. In a parting statement, Mr Teixeira said he had sacrificed his health to do his job. He said he had been criticised in the losses and undervalued in the victories.
Ricardo Teixeira在过去23年一直执掌巴西足协CBF。他一直管理这个世界杯历史上最成功的国家，然而争议也很多。在过去几年中，他被迫不停地就腐败指控为自己辩护，指控称他在CBF担任主席和Fifa执行委员会资深成员期间有腐败行为。Teixeira在辞职声明中表示，为了工作他牺牲了自己的健康，称每失败时自己会备受指责，而胜利时自己的价值就被低估。

The European Union has insisted it'll press ahead with plans to charge foreign airlines for the carbon emissions they produce during European flights.

A controversial art historian, Maurizio Seracini, says he's on the trail of a lost masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci, The Battle of Anghiari. Professor Seracini says samples from a hidden wall in the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence contain traces of paint that was only used by the Renaissance master. The work is hidden behind another masterpiece of the period by Giorgio Vasari. The discovery has been hailed by Terry Garcia of the US National Geographic Society, which sponsored the research.
一个富有争议的艺术世家Maurizio Seracini称自己正在追踪列奥纳多•达•芬奇的一件失传的名作《安吉里之战》。Seracini教授称佛罗伦萨韦奇奥宫一面隐蔽的墙中发现一些样本，在样本中发现了只有这位文艺复兴大师会用的颜料的痕迹。这幅画藏在同时期的乔治奥•瓦萨里的一幅大作后面。美国国家地理学会赞助支持了这次研究，学会成员Terry Garcia对这一发现表示热烈赞扬：

"I'm quite convinced that something has been found, and yes, it is a very historic day. And you know, I mean, this is a combination of a number of factors: one, as Doctor Seracini pointed out, there is overwhelming historical documentation that indicates that the Leonardo was painted, that it was behind the wall and that it was in existence at the time that Vasari painted his fresco."
“我确信已经发现了一些东西，是的，这是非常具有历史意义的一天。而且你知道，我的意思是这包含有几个因素：正如Seracini所指出的，这幅作品有巨大的历史意义，表明这是达芬奇创造的，同时它又藏在那片墙的后面，瓦萨里也在那时创作了那副壁画。
