An van has ploughed in high speed into a crowded christmas market in the French city of Nantes, injuring at least 6 people, some of them seriously. It's the third such assualt in France in recent days. Lucy Williamson reports.
在法国南部城市南斯，一辆货车高速冲进一个繁忙的圣诞节市场，伤及至少6人，有的伤势严重。这是最近几天法国发生的第三次此类袭击案，记者露西•威廉姆逊报道。

Local reports suggest the driver of the van may have shouted Allahu Akbar, or god is great before reversing into crowds of shoppers and then stab himslef 9 times according to French media. He's currently in the serious condition. On Saturday, a man was shot dead after stabbing police officers near the central city of Tours. A day later, another driver ploughed into pedestrians in Dijon, injuring 13 people. The series of the attacks have left France baffled, none of the three men has so far been found to have any radical regious links, but there's real anxiety here about the number of French citizens drown to violent Islamic groups and the risk they can pose at home.
当地报道称货车司机可能喊了“真主伟大”，然后冲进购物者人群中，法国媒体称货车司机戳了自己9次，目前情况严重。周六，在中部城市图尔市附近，一名男子行刺警察后被开枪打死。一天后，另一名司机冲到第戎街上行人身上，伤及13人。这一系列袭击案令法国感到不解，目前没有发现三名凶手有任何极端宗教关系，但人们很担心会有法国公民加入暴力伊斯兰组织，并对国内造成危险。

Pope Francis has used his Christmas speech to Catholic bishops and priets to make a scathing attack on the Vantican bureaucratic machine. The Pope told the symbol clergy that the Curia was middle to what he called existential schizophrenia, social exhibitionism and spiritual Alzheimer's. Our religous affair's correspondent Caroline White says there is a sense of shock in his words.
教皇弗朗西斯利用向天主教主教和牧师做圣诞节讲话的机会，严词批评了梵蒂冈的官僚机器。教皇告诉牧师们，教廷是他所谓的存在主义精神分裂症、社会自我表现欲和精神老年痴呆症的中心。宗教事务记者凯瑟琳•怀特称他的讲话中令人震惊。

This is very very strong stuff, they were absolute silence until the end of the speech perhaps a little typical ploys as well. People were quite shock by the strange of the words that he has used, that is a sense of frustration boiling over and it's said that previous Pope did also struggle to try to reform it. This is the place where people have been in their positions for dacades or even retired. Cardianl staff bishops still retain influence and power and try to change that is proving perhaps a much harder thing to do than he has thought.
他的严词非常激烈，到讲话结束之前场内一片寂静，这可能是典型的策略。人们对教皇使用的陌生言辞感到震惊，还有一种挫折感在弥漫着，据悉前任教皇也苦苦努力试图改革教廷。宗教官员们已经在其职位上几十年了，甚至已经退休。红衣主教们仍据有影响力、权力，改革教廷可能是一件比教皇想象的要难得多的事情。
