2019-04-25来源:和谐英语
Hello, this is David Austin with the BBC news.
The first funerals have taken place in Sri Lanka for the more than three hundred people killed in Sunday's suicide bomb attacks. A mass burial was held near St Sebastian's Church in Negombo where dozens of Christian worshipers were killed. The authorities have blamed a local Islamic group. Here is Sharanjit Leyl. The Sri Lankan government is now suggesting that these attacks took place in retaliation to the Christchurch attacks that happened last month that targeted two mosques in Christchurch. This is according to the Minister of Defense. Now what we also know is that the Sri Lankan government now is mulling, potentially banning the burqa because this is what's many of these suicide bombers were apparently seemed to be wearing. The Islamic State group has now said its members carried out the attacks, but provided no evidence.
斯里兰卡遇袭后举行了第一次葬礼,在周日的自杀式炸弹袭击中,有300多人丧生。斯里兰卡在尼甘布的圣塞巴斯蒂安教堂附近举行了集体葬礼,数十名基督教信徒在此被杀。政府将其归咎于当地的一个伊斯兰组织。以下是沙兰杰特•莱尔的报道。斯里兰卡政府现在暗示这些袭击是为了报复上个月发生的基督城袭击事件,该事件中有两个清真寺遭到袭击。以上是依据国防部长的说法。现在我们也知道斯里兰卡政府正在考虑禁止民众穿布尔卡(面纱女袍),因为许多自杀式炸弹袭击者就是穿着它作案的。伊斯兰国组织表示其成员实施了该袭击,但没有提供任何证据。

Trials of an experimental vaccine against malaria start in Malawi today. Almost a billion of dollars has gone into developing it in the hope of saving hundreds of thousands of lives a year, mostly of children in Africa. Here is Richard Galpin. Three hundred and sixty thousand young children are expected to be vaccinated each year until 2023 in this pilot program being rolled out in Malawi, Kenya and Ghana. In previous much smaller trials of vaccine, known by the initials RTSS was found to protect almost forty percent of the babies aged between five and seventeen months who received it. One potential concern is that it has to be given in four separate doses over many months. This big pilot program will be used to look into how effective the vaccine is and whether there are side effects.
今天马拉维开始了针对疟疾的实验性疫苗的试验。该疫苗的研发已经投入了近10亿美元,目的是拯救每年数十万人的生命,大部分都是非洲儿童。以下是理查德•盖尔平的报道。在马拉维、肯尼亚和加纳推出的这一试点计划中,预计到2023年,每年有三万六万名幼儿接种疫苗。在以前规模较小的疫苗试验中,人们发现名为RTSS的疫苗可以保护几乎百分之四十的接种它的年龄在5到17个月之间的婴儿。一个潜在的问题是它必须在几个月内进行四次单独的接种。这个大型试点项目将用于研究疫苗的有效性以及是否存在副作用。
